Amidino compounds, their manufacture and methods of treatment

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to the amidinophenoxyalkoxyphenyl derivatives and thio analogs as defined herein which are particularly useful as selective Leukotriene B.sub.4 (LTB4) receptor antagonists, methods for preparation thereof, pharmaceutical compositions comprising said compounds, and a method of antagonizing LTB-4 and of treating conditions or syndromes in mammals which are responsive to LTB-4 antagonism using said compounds or pharmaceutical compositions comprising said compounds of the invention.
Leukotriene B.sub.4 (LTD.sub.4) is an important inflammatory mediator being a potent chemotactic agent and activator of polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN's) and monocytes. It modulates the production and effects of other important inflammatory mediators e.g. Interleukin-1 and gamma interferon. LTB.sub.4 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of a number of inflammatory diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, psoriasis, non-steroidal-antiinflammatory-drug-induced gastropathy, adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), myocardial infarction, allergic rhinitis, hemodialysis-induced neutropenia, and late phase asthma.
The compounds of the invention are useful for the treatment of the conditions mediated by LTB.sub.4 which are cited above. In addition, the compounds are also useful for the treatment of pain and osteoarthritis, for the treatment of ocular conditions, such as ocular allergy and inflammation, and also for the treatment of dermatitis, such as atopic and contact dermatitis. There is a strong need in the art in finding potent antagonists of LTB.sub.4 on human PMN's, especially those which are orally active. It has been found that the compounds according to the present invention exhibit significant LTB.sub.4 antagonistic activity on human PMN's and are orally active.

Receptor Binding with [.sup.3 H]-LTB.sub.4 to Intact Human Neutrophils
Neutrophils (PMN's) are prepared from uncoagulated human venous blood. Blood is dispersed into 50 ml polypropylene tubes containing 15 ml of HESPAN (Dupont, Wilmington, Del.), and mixed. Tubes are allowed to stand at room temperature for 40 minutes until most of the red blood cells sediment. The supernalants are removed and centrifuged for 5-10 rain at 400.times.g. The remaining pellets are diluted in 70 ml of Phosphate Buffered Saline without calcium and magnesium (PBS without metals; GIBCO, Grand Island, N.Y.) and 35 ml of this suspension are placed in each of two polypropylene tubes containing 15 ml of Ficoll-Paque (Sigma, St. Louis, Mo.). Gradients are then centrifuged for 15 minutes at 420.times.g. The mononuclear cell layer is discarded and the remaining red blood cell pellet is resuspended in 10 ml of PBS without metals. Twenty ml of filtered deionized water are added to the suspension for approximately 20 sec followed by the same volume of buffer at two times the normal concentration. The cell suspension is mixed and centrifuged for 5 min at 200.times.g, followed by one wash with buffer, and final resuspension.
Binding of [.sup.3 H]LTD.sub.4 to LTB.sub.4 receptors is measured in intact human polymorphonuclear leukocytes, as described by Gorman and Lin (Gorman, R. and Lin, A Methods Enzymol. 141: 372-378, 1987). Intact human neutrophils are suspended in Hank's Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS) at a concentration of 3.times.106 cells/assay tube. An aliquot of the cell suspension (300 .mu.l) is added to triplicate tubes containing 50 .mu.l [3H]LTB.sub.4 (specific activity 32 Ci/mmol, DuPont-NEN, Boston, Mass.) at a final concentration of 0.5 nM, 100 .mu.l buffer and 50 .mu.l drug or buffer. Nonspecific binding is determined in the presence of 300 nM LTB.sub.4. The reaction is initiated by addition of cell suspension and continued at 0.degree. C. for 20 min. Bound radioactivity is isolated by vacuum filtration through Whatman GF/C glass fiber filters using a Brandel cell harvester and unbound radioactivity removed with 2.times.5 ml washes with ice-cold saline. Filters are placed in polyethylene scintillation mini-vials to which is added 3.5 ml of Formula-989 scintillation cocktail (NEN). After equilibration, radioactivity determinations and data calculations are performed using non-linear regression analysis on RS/1.
LTB.sub.4 -Induced PMN Aggregation
Human PMNs are prepared as previously described. Neutrophil aggregation is assessed by monitoring the intensity of light passing through a suspension of cells (Craddock et al., J. Clin. Invest. 60: 260-264, 1977) using a Payton dual channel aggregometer (model 300BD). Cuvettes containing 0.25 ml of cell suspension (25.times.106 cells/ml) in PBS without calcium and magnesium are incubated with 5 .mu.g/ml ml of cytochalasin B for 2 minutes at 37.degree. C. 5 .mu.l of 2 .mu.M LTB.sub.4 in PBS (20 nM final concentration) are added and the aggregation response monitored for 3-5 min, the time required for optimal response, Compounds are solubilized in 0.01M DMSO and then diluted in PBS to 0.001 M. 5 .mu.l of compound solution is added along with cytochalasin B and cells as described above. Following the preincubation period 5 .mu.l of 2 .mu.M LTB.sub.4 are added and aggregation is measured. Percent inhibition of aggregation is calculated by comparing peak heights in the presence and absence of compound. Percent inhibition is plotted as a function of the log concentration of compound and the IC.sub.50 determined directly from the graph.
LTD.sub.4 -Induced Neutropenia in the Rat
Male Sprague Dawley rats (crl: CDBR; Charles River, Wilmington, Mass.) (250-300 grams) are fasted overnight prior to the experiment. At least six animals are used per treatment group. Rats are given vehicle or compound either intravenously or orally and at intervals after dosing, neutrophil counts are determined from blood samples obtained just prior to and 20 seconds after intravenous infusion of 200 ng LTB.sub.4. In studies where compound is administered orally, drug is given by gavage. When drug is administered intravenously, rats are first anesthetized with 50 mg/kg i.p. of Sodium Pentabarbital. The jugular vein is exposed and cleaned of the surrounding tissue. At 3, 4 or 18 hours following administration of compound or vehicle by either route, blood samples are taken (0.3 ml of blood in 1.5 ml polypropylene microcentrifuge tube containing 0.01 ml 7.5% EDTA). Blood neutrophil counts are determined using a Technicon H-1 hematology instrument. Antagonism of the LTD.sub.4 -induced neutropenia response for the compounds tested is calculated.
Analgesic activity can be demonstrated e.g. in the Randall-Selitto test for analgesia, e.g. as described in Arch. Int. Pharmacodyn. Ther. 111,409 (1957).
Antiinflammatory activity can be demonstrated by measuring the inhibition of the edema and inhibition of the influx of polymorphonuclear (PMN's) and mononuclear leukocytes (monocytes and macrophages) after oral administration in the rat model in which pleurisy is first induced by injecting carrageenin into the pleural cavity, e.g. according to A. P. Almeida et al., J. Pharmacol. Exp. Therap. 214, 74 (1980), in particular during the late phase of the carrageenin-induced pleurisy.
Bronchial effects such as anti-asthmatic activity, can be demonstrated in the antigen-induced guinea pig bronchoconstriction test, e.g. as described by Anderson et al, Br. J. Pharmacol. 1983, 78, 67-74.
The trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid-induced chronic colitis test in the rat, e.g. as described by Wallace et al, Gastroenterology 1989, 96, 29-36, can be used to evaluate compounds for effects indicative of utility in inflammatory bowel diseases.
The arachidonic acid-induced mouse ear edema test, e.g. as described by Young et al, J. Invest, Dermatol. 1984, 82, 367-371 can be used to evaluate compounds for effects indicative of utility in dermatological disorders such as psoriasis.

The reaction is carried out preferably in the presence of a base e.g. as mentioned above, such as cesium carbonate.
The starting material can be prepared following methods known per se.

If one of variables Z.sub.3 and Z.sub.5 represents reactive esterified hydroxy, the other preferably represents hydroxy or mercapto.

Compounds of formulae (IIb) and (IIc) are known or can be prepared according to methods known per se.

In order to prepare the starting material of the formula IIIa, Z.sub.1 of a compound of the formula (IIb) is converted into radical --CO--R.sub.1 following the method as described in process a) resulting in compound of the formula ##STR14## which, in the next step, is reacted with a compound of the formula (IIc) following the method as described in process c).
Relating to compounds wherein R.sub.2 represents lower alkoxy substituted by carboxy, by esterified carboxy or by amidated carboxy, such compounds can be prepared from intermediates obtained by alkylation of starting materials or intermediates wherein R.sub.2 is hydroxy with the appropriate reactive esterified hydroxy-substituted carboxylic acids or amides, e.g. the bromo-substituted lower alkyl carboxylic acid esters or amides. The esters can in turn be convened to the carboxylic acids or amides by methods well-known in the art. The starting materials and intermediates wherein R.sub.2 is hydroxy are prepared from compounds wherein R.sub.2 is e.g. methoxy by solvolysis thereof, e.g. with boron tribromide.
The invention further includes any variant of the present processes, in which an intermediate product obtainable at any stage thereof is used as starting material and the remaining steps are carried out, or the process is discontinued at any stage thereof, or in which the starting materials are formed under the reaction conditions, or in which the reaction components are used in the form of their salts or optically pure antipodes.
A compound according to the invention which is obtainable by the process can be convened into another compound according to the invention in a manner known per se.
If one of the variables contains mono-substituted amino (for example R.sub.1), corresponding compounds of the formula I or salts thereof can be N-alkylated in a manner known per se; likewise, N-mono-substituted carbamoyl (for example R.sub.1) can further be N-alkylated. The (aryl-)alkylation is carried out, for example, using a reactive ester of an (aryl-)C.sub.1 -C.sub.7 -alkyl halide, for example a bromide or iodide, an (aryl-)C.sub.1 -C.sub.7 -alkylsulfonate, for example a methanesulfonate or p-toluenesulfonate, or a di-C.sub.1 -C.sub.7 -alkyl sulfate, for example dimethyl sulfate, preferably under basic conditions, such as in the presence of sodium hydroxide solution or potassium hydroxide solution, and advantageously in the presence of a phase-transfer catalyst, such as tetrabutylammonium bromide or benzyltrimethylammonium chloride, where, however, stronger basic condensing agents, such as alkali metal amides, hydrides or alkoxides, for example sodium amide, sodium hydride or sodium ethoxide, may be necessary.
If R.sub.3 is hydrogen, the corresponding amidino group can be N-acylated accordingly. The acylation is carried out in a manner known per se using a suitable acylating agent. An example of a suitable acylating agent is a compound of the formula Ac--Z.sub.7, where Ac denotes an acyl radical corresponding to the variable R.sub.3, and Z.sub.7 denotes in particular reactive activated hydroxyl. Appropriate hydroxyl can be activated, for example, by strong acids such as hydrohalic or carboxylic acid, for example by hydrochloric, hydrobromic acid, an optionally substituted, for example by halogen, alkanecarboxylic acid or by an acid of the formula Ac--OH, or by suitable activating or coupling reagents of the type detailed hereinafter, in particular in situ. Ac--Z.sub.7 can furthermore represent an activated ester, where Z.sub.7 denotes, in particular, cyanomethoxy, phenoxy, (4-)nitrophenoxy or polyhalogeno-, such as pentachlorophenoxy. Activating and coupling reagents which can be employed are, in particular, carbodiimides, for example N,N'-di-C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl- or N,N'-di-C.sub.5 -C.sub.7 -cycloalkyl-carbodiimide, such as diisopropylcarbodiimide or N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, advantageously with the addition of an activating catalyst such as N-hydroxysuccinimide or optionally substituted, for example by halogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.7 -alkyl or C.sub.1 -C.sub.7 -alkoxy, N-hydroxy-benzotriazole or N-hydroxy-5-norbornene-2,3-dicarboxamide, furthermore C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl halogenoformate, for example isobutyl chloroformate, suitable carbonyl compounds, for example N,N-carbonyldiimidazole, suitable 1,2-oxazolium compounds, for example 2-ethyl-5-phenyl-1,2-oxazolium 3'-sulfonate or 2-tert-butyl-5-methyl-isoxazolium perchlorate, suitable acylamino compounds, for example 2-ethoxy-1-ethoxycarbonyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline, or suitable phosphoryl cyanamides or azides, for example diethylphosphoryl cyanamide or diphenylphosphoryl azide, furthermore triphenylphosphine disulfide or 1-C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl-2-halogeno-pyridinium halides, for example 1-methyl-2-chloropyridinium iodide. Z.sub.7 preferably denotes halogen such as chlorine or bromine, Ac--O--, and advantageously phenoxy.
If the compounds of the formula (I), (IA) or (IB) contain unsaturated radicals, such as (lower)alkenyl groups, these can be converted into saturated radicals in a manner known per se. Thus, for example, multiple bonds are hydrogenated by catalytic hydrogenation in the presence of hydrogenation catalysts, suitable for this purpose being, for example, nickel, such as Raney nickel, and noble metals or their derivatives, for example oxides, such as palladium or platinum oxide, which may be applied, if desired, to support materials, for example to carbon or calcium carbonate. The hydrogenation may preferably carried out at pressures between 1 and about 100 at and at room temperature between about -80.degree. to about 200.degree. C., in particular between room temperature and about 100.degree. C. The reaction is advantageously carried out in a solvent, such as water, a lower alkanol, for example ethanol, isopropanol or n-butanol, an ether, for example dioxane, or a lower alkanecarboxylic acid, for example acetic acid.
The invention also relates to any novel starting materials and processes for their manufacture and their use.
Depending on the choice of starting materials and methods, the new compounds may be in the form of one of the possible isomers or mixtures thereof, for example, as substantially pure geometric (cis or trans) isomers, optical isomers (antipodes), racemates, or mixtures thereof. The aforesaid possible isomers or mixtures thereof ,are within the purview of this invention.
Any resulting mixtures of isomers can be separated on the basis of the physico-chemical differences of the constituents, into the pure geometric or optical isomers, diastereoisomers, racemates, for example by chromatography and/or fractional crystallization.
Any resulting racemates of final products or intermediates can be resolved into the optical antipodes by known methods, e.g. by separation of the diastereoisomeric salts thereof, obtained with an optically active acid or base, and liberating the optically active acidic or basic compound. Racetalc amidines (wherein R.sub.3 represents hydrogen) can thus be resolved into their optical antipodes e.g. by fractional crystallization of a salt formed with an optically active acid.
Finally, the compounds of the invention are either obtained in the free form, or as a salt thereof.
In view of the close relationship between the free compounds and the compounds in the form of their salts, whenever a compound is referred to in this context, a corresponding salt is also intended, provided such is possible or appropriate under the circumstances.
The compounds, including their salts, can also be obtained in the form of their hydrates, or include other solvents used for their crystallization.
The pharmaceutical compositions according to the invention are those suitable for enteral, such as oral or rectal, transdermal and parenteral administration to mammals, including man, to antagonize LTB.sub.4 receptors, and for the treatment of a condition or syndrome responsive to the selective antagonism of LTB.sub.4 receptors, comprising an effective amount of a pharmacologically active compound of the invention, alone or in combination, with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers.
The novel pharmaceutical products contain, for example, from about 10% to about 80% preferably from about 20% to about 60%, of the active compound. Examples of pharmaceutical products according to the invention for enteral or parenteral administration are those in dose-unit forms such as coated tablets, tablets, capsules or suppositories, as well as ampoules. These are prepared in a manner known per se, for example using conventional mixing, granulating, coating, dissolving or freeze-drying processes. Thus, pharmaceutical products for oral use can be obtained by combining the active compound with solid excipients, where appropriate granulating a mixture which is obtained, and processing the mixture or granules, if desired or necessary, after addition of suitable auxiliaries to tablets or cores of coated tablets.
The pharmacologically active compounds of the invention are useful in the manufacture of pharmaceutical compositions comprising an effective amount thereof in conjunction or admixture with excipients or carders suitable for either enteral or parenteral application. Preferred are tablets and gelatin capsules comprising the active ingredient together with a) diluents, e.g. lactose, dextrose, sucrose, mannitol, sorbitol, cellulose and/or glycine; b) lubricants, e.g. silica, talcum, stearic acid, its magnesium or calcium salt and/or polyethyleneglycol; for tablets also c) binders e.g. magnesium aluminum silicate, starch paste, gelatin, tragacanth, methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose and or polyvinylpyrrolidone; if desired d) disintegrants, e.g. starches, agar, alginic acid or its sodium salt, or effervescent mixtures; and/or e) absorbants, colorants, flavors and sweeteners. Injectable compositions are preferably aqueous isotonic solutions or suspensions, and suppositories are advantageously prepared from fatty emulsions or suspensions. Said compositions may be sterilized and/or contain adjuvants, such as preserving, stabilizing, wetting or emulsifying agents, solution promoters, salts for regulating the osmotic pressure and/or buffers. Cores of coated tablets are provided with suitable, optionally enteric, coatings, using, inter alia, concentrated sugar solutions which optionally contain gum arabic, talc, polyvinylpyrrolidone, polyethylene glycol and/or titanium dioxide, lacquer solutions in suitable organic solvents or solvent mixtures or, for the preparation of enteric coatings, solutions of suitable cellulose products such as acetyl cellulose phthalate or hydroxypropylmethylcellulose phthalate. Colorants or pigments can be added to the tablets or coatings of coated tablets, for example, to identify or to indicate various doses of active compound. In addition, they may also contain other therapeutically valuable substances. Said compositions are prepared according to conventional mixing, granulating or coating methods, respectively, and contain about 0.1 to 75%, preferably about 1 to 50%, of the active ingredient.
Suitable formulations for topical application, e.g. to the skin and eyes, are preferably aqueous solutions, ointments, creams or gels well-known in the art.
Suitable formulations for transdermal application include an effective amount of a compound of the invention with carrier. Advantageous carders include absorbable pharmacologically acceptable solvents to assist passage through the skin of the host. Characteristically, transdermal devices are in the form of a bandage comprising a backing member, a reservoir containing the compound optionally with carders, optionally a rate controlling barrier to deliver the compound of the skin of the host at a controlled and predetermined rate over a prolonged period of time, and means to secure the device to the skin.
In conjunction with another active ingredient, a compound of the invention may be administered either simultaneously, before or after the other active ingredient, either separately by the same or different route of administration or together in the same pharmaceutical formulation.
The invention further particularly relates to a method for the treatment of a condition or syndrome responsive to the selective antagonism of LTB.sub.4 receptors, such as rheumatoid arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, psoriasis, non-steroidal-antiinflammatory-druginduced gastropathy, adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), myocardial infarction, allergic rhinitis, hemodialysis-induced neutropenia, and late phase asthma; also for the treatment of osteoarthritis, of pain and of ocular allergies and inflammations; and also for the treatment of atopic and contact dermatitis.
The dosage of active compound administered is dependent on the species of warmblooded animal (mammal), the body weight, age and individual condition, and on the form of administration. A unit dosage for oral administration to a mammal of about 70 kg may contain e.g. between about 1 and about 1000 mg/kg per day of the active ingredient.
The following examples are intended to illustrate the invention and are not to be construed as being limitations thereon. Temperatures are given in degrees Centrigrade. If not mentioned otherwise, all evaporations are performed under reduced pressure, preferably between about 15 and 100 mm Hg. The structure of final products, intermediates and starting materials is confirmed by standard analytical methods, e.g. microanalysis and spectroscopic characteristics (e.g. MS, IR, NMR). Abbreviations used are those conventional in the art.
The compounds wherein R.sub.3 is not hydrogen have been assigned the isomeric structure in which R.sub.3 is located on the imino (C.dbd.N) nitrogen of the amidine group; however, such may also exist in the isomeric form in which R.sub.3 is on the amino nitrogen of the amidine group.

C., 3 mm Hg) to give methyl 4-[5-(4-cyanophenoxy)-pentoxy]-3-methoxybenzoate, mp 105.degree.-107.degree. C., HPLC indicating a purity of 99.8%.
Methyl 4-[5-(4-cyanophenoxy)-pentoxy]-3-methoxybenzoate (3600 g, 9.74 mol) is dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (36 L) with warming to 30.degree. C. The solution is then cooled to 20.degree. C. and a solution of tetrabutylammonium hydroxide (40% in water, 7.1 L, 1.64 m) is added over 20 minutes. The reaction mixture is then stirred at an internal temperature of 25.degree. C. for 7 hours and overnight at room temperature (23.degree. C.). After cooling to 10.degree. C. with an ice bath, hydrochloric acid (1.0 N, 14.4 L) is added over 1 hour. After stirring and cooling to 10.degree. C. for three hours, the product is filtered, washed with water (24 L) and dried in vacuo (76.degree. C., 3 mm Hg) to give 4-[5-(4-cyanophenoxy)pentoxy]-3-methoxybenzoic acid, mp 159.degree.-161.degree. C. HPLC indicates 99.1% purity. A second crop of acid is obtained from the flitrates after diluting further with water (20 L). The product is filtered, washed with water (4.times.3 L) and dried in vacuo to give 4-[5-(4-cyanophenoxy)pentoxy]-3-methoxybenzoic acid, mp 158.degree.-160.degree. C., (HPLC indicates 98.3% purity).
4-[5-(4-cyanophenoxy)pentoxy]-3-methoxybenzoic acid (3600 g, 10.13 mol) is suspended in dichloromethane (36 L) and to this is added thionyl chloride (1345 g, 11.30 mol) dropwise over 20 minutes followed by dimethylformamide (74.4 g, 10.0 mmol). The reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature for 21 hours; after 6 hours a complete solution is obtained. The solution is concentrated in vacuo (50.degree. C, 3 mm Hg) to give 4-[5-(4-cyanophenoxy)pentoxy]-3-methoxybenzoyl chloride as a solid, which is then redissolved in dichloromethane (36 L) without further purification and cooled to 5.degree. C. with an ice bath. Diisopropylamine (3077 g, 30.40 mmol) is added dropwise over a period of 1 hour. The reaction mixture is stirred at 20.degree. C. for 3 hours and then, N,N-dimethylethylenediamine (80.3 g, 0.91 mmol) is added. The reaction is followed by TLC (2:1 ethyl acetate/hexanes, silica plates) until no more byproduct (bis-anhydride of 4-[5-(4-cyanophenoxy)pentoxy]3-methoxybenzoic acid) is detected. The reaction mixture is then stirred overnight at room temperature. Water (18 L) is added,stirred and the layers separated. The organic layer is washed with hydrochloric acid (1.0 N, 23 L), water (18 L), ammonium hydroxide (0.5 N, 2.times.23 L), water (18 L) and brine solution (18 L). The separated dichloromethane solution is dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo (50.degree. C., 3 mm Hg) to give 4-[5-(4-cyanophenoxy)pentoxy]-3-methoxy-N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)- benzamide as a solid. The solid is dissolved in 2 B ethanol (21.5 L) by warming and to the solution is added water (8.6 L). The product is allowed to crystallize overnight in an ice bath. The product is filtered, washed with EtOH/H.sub.2 O (5:2, 2.times.2 L) and dried in vacuo (54.degree. C., 3 mm Hg) to give 4-[5-(4-cyanophenoxy)pentoxy]-3-methoxy-N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)- benzamide, mp 90.degree.-92.degree. C. HPLC indicates a purity of >99.7%.
Ethanol (2B,6.0 L) is cooled in an ice bath to 0.degree. C. and saturated with anhydrous hydrogen chloride over a period of 7 1/2hours. The solution is left in the ice bath overnight and the hydrogen chloride addition is continued an additional hour at 0.degree. C. 4-[5-(4-Cyanophenoxy)pentoxy]-3-methoxy-N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)- benzamide (4200 g, 9.57 mole) is added rapidly over 30 minutes and an exotherm raises the reaction mixture temperature to 10.degree. C. Hydrogen chloride addition is continued for 6 hours and the purple solution stirred overnight at 20.degree. C. The reaction mixture is followed by TLC (ethyl acetate/hexane, 2:1) using silica plates. A total of 4-5 days is required for completion of this reaction with periodic resaturation with hydrogen chloride. The thick purple solution is transferred into a 20 gallon reactor and triturated with anhydrous diethyl ether (2.times.30 L), removing the ether solution after each wash. The reactor is put under vacuum (3 mm Hg) for 0.5 hour to dispel most of the hydrogen chloride leaving ethyl 4-[5-[3-methoxy-4-[N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)aminocarbonyl]phenoxy]pentoxy]benzenecarboximidoate monohydrochloride as a thick purple oil.
Ethanol 2 B (42 L) is added to the reactor and the ethyl 4-[5-[3-methoxy-4-[N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)aminocarbonyl]phenoxy]-pentoxy]benzenecarboximidoate monohydrochloride is dissolved. The solution is cooled to 5.degree. C. and anhydrous ammonia is bubbled into the solution for 7.5 hours until saturation is obtained. After stirring overnight in the ice bath, and ammonia addition is continued another 7.5 hours at 5.degree. C. The reaction mixture is followed by TLC (CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 /MeOH, 9:1) using silica plates. A total of four days is required for completion of reaction with periodic resaturation with ammonia gas. The reaction mixture is filtered and the filtrate divided into two equal portions. Concentration in vacuo (55.degree. C., 3 mm Hg) gives an oily viscous suspension which is charged into a 20 gallon reactor. This is admixed with hydrochloric acid (12 N, 560 ml), diluted with water (44 L). At this point, the compound dissolves (pH is 1.62). The solution is washed with diethyl ether (3.times.18 L), and the pH adjusted to 12.6 with a 6 N sodium hydroxide solution (3.0 L). The oily suspension crystallizes after stirring overnight at 20.degree. C. The product is filtered, washed with water (5.times.4 L) and dried in vacuo (60.degree. C. 3 mm Hg) to give the product. The second half of the reaction mixture is worked up in a similar manner to give 4-[5-[4-(aminoiminomethyl)phenoxy]pentoxy]-3-methoxy-N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)-benzamide is obtained, mp 112.degree.-114.degree. C. HPLC indicates a purity of 98.5%.

EXAMPLE 18
Amberlite IRA-400 (OH) ion-exchange resin (55.5 g) is added in one portion to a stirred ethanol (120 mL)/methanol (30 mL) solution of 4-[5-[4-(aminoiminomethyl)phenoxy] pentyloxy]-3-methoxy-N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)benzamide monohydrochloride (20 g). After stirring for 20 hours, the resin is removed by filtration. The mother liquor is concentrated at reduced pressure to afford 4-[5-[4-(aminoiminomethyl)phenoxy]pentyloxy]-3-methoxy-N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)benzamide.
The starting material can be prepared as follows:
Acetic anhydride (72.9 g, 67.4 mL) is added under nitrogen at room temperature to 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzoic acid (97.7 g) in xylenes (817 g, 950 mL) while stirring. The stirred mixture is heated to 115.degree.-125.degree. C. and heated at 120.degree.-125.degree. C. for 4 to 20 hours under nitrogen. Part of the liquid is then removed by distillation at about 150.degree. bath temperature to a volume of about 700 ml and the mixture is cooled to room temperature to obtain a slurry of 4-acetoxy-3-methoxybenzoic acid which is again diluted with additional xylenes (224 g, 226 mL). N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF, 1.9 g, 2.0 mL) is added followed by dropwise addition, over 2.5 hours, of oxalyl chloride (90.6 g, 62.2 mL). The reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature for 24 hours to obtain a solution of 4-acetoxy-3-methoxybenzoyl chloride which is used as such in the next step. The xylenes solution is cooled to -14.degree. to -20.degree. C. with a brine solution and diisopropylamine (169 g, 234 mL) is added dropwise over a 45 minute period, at a rate so that the temperature does not exceed 0.degree. C. The reaction mixture is allowed to warm to room temperature and is stirred at room temperature (17.degree.-20.degree. C.) for 21 hours. The resulting slurry is filtered under vacuum, and the filter cake is further slurred with xylenes (430 mL) and filtered.
The combined filtrate (about 1260 mL), containing 4-acetoxy-3-methoxy-N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)-benzamide, is treated at room temperature under nitrogen while stirring with 2-aminoethanol (43.1 g, 42.6 mL) added dropwise over a 5 minute period. The reaction mixture is then heated at 78.degree.-85.degree. for 5 hours. The heat source is removed and water (400 mL) is added slowly over a period of 30 minutes. The stirred slurry is cooled to room temperature and stirring at room temperature is continued for 16 hours. The suspension is cooled to 5.degree. C. and filtered. The resulting solid is washed with xylenes and dried in a vacuum oven at 40.degree.-45.degree. C. for 48 hours to obtain 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)benzamide; .sup.1 H-NMR (CDCl.sub.3): .delta.1.10-1.50 (m, 12H), 3.62-3.80 (m, 2H), 3.82 (s, 3H), 6.42-6.70 (m, 1H), 6.72-6.88 (m, 3H).
1-Bromo-5-chloropentane (84.7 g, 60.2 mL) is added to a stirred slurry of 4-hydroxy-3-methoxy-N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)benzamide (109 g) and powdered potassium carbonate (72.1 g) in 2-butanone (805 g, 1099 mL). The reaction mixture is heated at 80.degree. C. for 21 hours with moderate stirring, and the slurry is filtered hot to obtain a 2-butanone solution containing 4-(5-chloropentyloxy)-3-methoxy-N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)benzamide. Sodium iodide (97.8 g) is added. The mixture is heated at 80.degree. C. for 21 hours with moderate stirring, and filtered while hot to obtain a 2-butanone solution of 4-(5-iodopentyloxy-3-methoxy-N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)benzamide. Powdered potassium carbonate (72.1 g) and 4-cyanophenol (67.4 g) are added. After the mixture is stirred moderately for 5 minutes, tris[2-(2-methoxyethoxy)ethyl]amine (3.52 g) is added in one portion and the resulting slurry is heated at 78.degree.-80.degree. C. for 21 hours with moderate stirring. The slurry is cooled to 25.degree.-35.degree. C. and sodium hydroxide (1N, 500 mL) is added. The mixture is stirred for 10 minutes, and the aqueous layer is then separated. The organic layer (ca. 1300 mL) is washed with saturated sodium chloride solution (500 mL), and 940 mL of the solvent is removed by distillation at 115.degree. C. The remaining solution is cooled to 60.degree. C., cyclohexane (1526 mL) is added over a 5 minute period, followed by antistatic agent (ASA-3, 0.17 g). The mixture is heated at 76.degree.-79.degree. C. for 5 minutes and filtered hot under vacuum. The filtrate is heated at 76.degree.-79.degree. C. for 5 minutes, cooled slowly to room temperature and stirred over the weekend. The suspension is then cooled to -8.degree.-12.degree. C. and stirred at this temperature for 1.5 hours. The slurry is filtered, the collected product is washed with 2-butanone (22.2 mL)/cyclohexane (178 mL), and dried at 46.degree.-50.degree. C. for 24 hours to yield 4-[5-(4-cyanophenoxy)pentyloxy-3-methoxy-N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)benzamide. Crude product (144 g) is purified by suspending in 2-butanone (215 mL)/cyclohexane (1218 mL) with antistatic agent, heating at about 80.degree. for 5 minutes, filtering the solution while hot, cooling the filtrate to room temperature, stirring overnight, then cooling to 8.degree.-10.degree. C. and stirring for 1.5 hours at 8.degree.-10.degree. C. The slurry is vacuum filtered, the collected product is washed with 2-butanone/cyclohexane, and dried at 46.degree.-50.degree. in a vacuum oven for 24 hours to obtain pure 4-[5-(4-cyanophenoxy)pentyloxy]-3-methoxy-N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)benzamide; .sup.1 H-NMR (DMSO): .delta.5 1.10-1.50 (m, 12H), 1.50-1.65 (m, 2H), 1.75-1.85 (m, 4H), 3.55-3.80 (m, 2H), 3.75 (s, 3H), 3.96 (t, J=6.3 Hz, 2 H), 4.08 (t, J=6.5 Hz, 2H), 6.75-6.85 (m, 2H), 6.92-6.98 (d, J=8.7 Hz, 1H), 7.06-7.12 (d, J=8.5 Hz, 2H), 7.72-7.78 (d, J=8.4 Hz, 2H).
4-[5-(4-Cyanophenoxy)pentyloxy]-3-methoxy-N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)benzamide can be converted to 4-[5-[4-(aminoiminomethyl)phenoxy]pentyloxy]-3-methoxy-N,N-bis(1-methylethyl)benzamide monohydrochloride similarly to corresponding steps in e.g. example 7.
