DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
This invention is directed to the various novel acyloxyketone substituted amino and imino acid compounds of formula I above, intermediates for preparing such compounds, and compositions and methods of using compositions containing these novel compounds.
The term lower alkyl used in defining various symbols refers to straight or branched chain radicals having up to seven carbons. The preferred lower alkyl groups are up to four carbons with methyl and ethyl most preferred. Similarly the terms lower alkoxy and lower alkylthio refer to such lower alkyl groups attached to an oxygen or sulfur.
The term cycloalkyl refers to saturated rings of 3 to 7 carbon atoms with cyclopentyl and cyclohexyl being most preferred.
The term halogen refers to chloro, bromo and fluoro.
The term halo substituted lower alkyl refers to such lower alkyl groups described above in which one or more hydrogens have been replaced by chloro, bromo or fluoro groups such as trifluoromethyl, which is preferred, pentafluoroethyl, 2,2,2-trichloroethyl, chloromethyl, bromomethyl, etc.
The symbols ##STR15## represent that the alkylene bridge is attached to an available carbon atom.
The compounds of formula I can be prepared by coupling a carboxylic acid of the formula ##STR16## with the amino or imino acid ester of the formula
HX (III)
in the presence of a coupling agent such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide wherein R.sub.6 in the definition of X is an easily removable ester protecting group such as benzyl or t-butyl. Removal of the R.sub.6 protecting group such as by hydrogenation when R.sub.6 is benzyl or treatment with trifluoroacetic acid when R.sub.6 is t-butyl yields the products of formula I wherein R.sub.6 is hydrogen.
The carboxylic acid intermediate of formula II can be prepared by reacting the acyloxyketone of the formula ##STR17## with the Gignard reagent of the formula ##STR18## to yield ##STR19## Catalytic hydrogenation of VI yields ##STR20## which is oxidized for example by treating with pyridinium dichromate to give the intermediate of formula II.
Alternatively, the acyloxyketone of formula IV can be reacted with the Grignard reagent of the formula ##STR21## to yield ##STR22## Hydrolysis of IX yields ##STR23## which is then oxidized for example by treatment with Jones Reagent (chromic anhydride in dilute sulfuric acid) to yield the intermediate of formula II.
The acyloxyketone starting material of formula IV when R.sub.3 is other than --NH-lower alkyl ##STR24## is prepared by acylating a carboxylic acid ester of the formula ##STR25## with an acid chloride of the formula ##STR26## in the presence of triethylamine and dimethylaminopyridine to yield ##STR27## Removal of the benzyl protecting group such as by hydrogenation yields the desired starting material.
When R.sub.3 is --NH-lower alkyl ##STR28## the acyloxyketone of formula IV is prepared by treating the carboxylic acid ester of formula XI with the isocyanate of the formula ##STR29## Removal of the benzyl protecting group yields the desired starting material.
In the above reactions if R.sub.5 is ##STR30## then the hydroxyl, amino, imidazolyl, mercaptan or guanidinyl function should be protected during the reaction. Suitable protecting groups include benzyloxycarbonyl, t-butoxycarbonyl, benzyl, benzhydryl, trityl, etc., and nitro in the case of guanidinyl. The protecting group is removed by hydrogenation, treatment with acid, or other known methods following completion of the reaction.
The ester products of formula I wherein R.sub.6 is lower alkyl, benzyl or benhydryl can be chemically treated such as with sodium hydroxide in aqueous dioxane or with trimethylsilylbromide to yield the products of formula I wherein R.sub.6 is hydrogen. The benzyl and benzhydryl esters can also be hydrogenated, for example by treating with hydrogen in the presence of a palladium on carbon catalyst. The ester products of formula I wherein R.sub.6 is ##STR31## may be obtained by employing the acid chloride of formula III in the above reactions with such ester group already in place. Such ester reactants can be prepared by treating the corresponding amino or imino acid of formula III wherein R.sub.6 is hydrogen with an acid chloride such as ##STR32## so as to protect the N-atom. The protected amino or imino acid is then reacted in the presence of a base with a compound of the formula ##STR33## wherein L is a leaving group such as chlorine, bromine, tolylsulfonyl, etc., followed by removal of the N-protecting group such as by treatment with acid or hydrogenation.
The ester products of formula I wherein R.sub.6 is ##STR34## can also be obtained by treating the product of formula I wherein R.sub.6 is hydrogen with a molar excess of the compound of formula XV.
The products of formula I wherein R.sub.7 is amino may be obtained by reducing the corresponding products of formula I wherein R.sub.7 is azido.

Most preferred compounds of this invention with respect to the amino or imino acid or ester part of the structure of formula I are those
wherein:
X is ##STR42## R.sub.6 is hydrogen, ##STR43## alkali metal salt ion, or --C.sub.2 H.sub.5.

t is two or three, especially where t is two.
Preferred compounds of this invention with respect to the acyloxyketone portion of the structure of formula I are those
wherein:

The compounds of formula I wherein R.sub.6 is hydrogen form salts with a variety of inorganic or organic bases. The non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable salts are preferred, although other salts are also useful in isolating or purifying the product. Such pharmaceutically acceptable salts include alkali metal salts such as sodium, potassium or lithium, alkaline earth metal salts such as calcium or magnesium, and salts derived from amino acids such as arginine, lysine, etc. The salts are obtained by reacting the acid form of the compound with an equivalent of the base supplying the desired ion in a medium in which the salt precipitates or in aqueous medium and then lyophilizing.
As shown above, the amino or imino acid portion of the molecule of the products of formula I is in the L-configuration. An asymmetric center is also present in the acyloxyketone portion of the molecule at the carbon having the R.sub.2 substituent and a second asymmetric center is present in the acyloxyketone portion of the molecule when R.sub.1 is other than hydrogen. Thus, the compounds of formula I can exist in diastereoisomeric forms or in mixtures thereof. The above described processes can utilize racemates, enantiomers or diastereomers as starting materials. When diastereomeric products are prepared, they can be separated by conventional chromatographic or fractional crystallization methods.
The products of formula I wherein the imino acid ring is monosubstituted give rise to cis-trans isomerism. The configuration of the final product will depend upon the configuration of the R.sub.7, R.sub.8 and R.sub.9 substituent in the starting material of formula III.
The compounds of formula I, and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, are hypotensive agents. They inhibit the conversion of the decapeptide angiotensin I to angiotensin II and, therefore, are useful in reducing or relieving angiotensin related hypertension. The action of the enzyme renin on angiotensinogen, a pseudoglobulin in blood plasma, produces angiotensin I. Angiotensin I is converted by angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) to angiotensin II. The latter is an active pressor substance which has been implicated as the causative agent in several forms of hypertension in various mammalian species, e.g., humans. The compounds of this invention intervene in the angiotensinogen.fwdarw.(renin).fwdarw.angiotensin I.fwdarw.angiotensin II sequence by inhibiting angiotensin converting enzyme and reducing or eliminating the formation of the pressor substance angiotensin II. Thus by the administration of a composition containing one (or a combination) of the compounds of this invention, angiotensin dependent hypertension in a species of mammal (e.g., humans) suffering therefrom is alleviated. A single dose, or preferably two to four divided daily doses, provided on a basis of about 0.1 to 100 mg. per kilogram of body weight per day is appropriate to reduce blood pressure. The substance is preferably administered orally, but parenteral routes such as the subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous or intraperitoneal routes can also be employed.
The compounds of this invention can also be formulated in combination with a diuretic for the treatment of hypertension. A combination product comprising a compound of this invention and a diuretic can be administered in an effective amount which comprises a total daily dosage of about 30 to 600 mg., preferably about 30 to 330 mg. of a compound of this invention, and about 15 to 300 mg., preferably about 15 to 200 mg. of the diuretic, to a mammalian species in need thereof. Exemplary of the diuretics contemplated for use in combination with a compound of this invention are the thiazide diuretics, e.g., chlorothiazide, hydrochlorothiazide, flumethiazide, hydroflumethiazide, bendroflumethiazide, methyclothiazide, trichloromethiazide, polythiazide or benzthiazide as well as ethacrynic acid, ticrynafen, chlorthalidone, furosemide, musolimine, bumetanide, triamterene, amiloride and spironolactone and salts of such compounds.
The compounds of formula I can be formulated for use in the reduction of blood pressure in compositions such as teblets, capsules or elixirs for oral administration, or in sterile solutions or suspensions for parenteral administration. About 10 to 500 mg. of a compound of formula I is compounded with physiologically acceptable vehicle, carrier, excipient, binder, preservative, stabilizer, flavor, etc., in a unit dosage form as called for by accepted pharmaceutical practice. The amount of active substance in these compositions or preparations is such that a suitable dosage in the range indicated is obtained.
The compounds of formula I wherein X is ##STR48## also possess enkephalinase inhibition activity and are useful as analgesic agents. Thus, by the administration of a composition containing one or a combination of such compounds of formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, pain is alleviated in the mammalian host. A single dose, or preferably two to four divided daily doses, provided on a basis of about 0.1 to about 100 mg. per kilogram of body weight per day, preferably about 1 to about 50 mg. per kilogram per day, produces the desired analgesic activity. The composition is preferably administered orally but parenteral routes such as subcutaneous can also be employed.
The following examples are illustrative of the invention. Temperatures are given in degrees centigrade.
