Amine compounds, their production and use

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to a novel amine compound or a salt thereof having excellent gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor antagonizing activity, a process for producing it, and a pharmaceutical composition containing it.
GnRH, which is a decapeptide consisting of 10 amino acids, is produced in the hypothalamus. It is known that GnRH regulates secretion of various hormones such as luteinizing hormone and follicle stimulating hormone through receptors which may be present in the anterior pituitary to thereby play a multi-pronged physiological role including induction of ovulation. Therefore, an antagonist or an agonist that is specific and selective for these receptors would modulate secretion of the anterior pituitary hormones. Therefore, such an antagonist or agonist can be expected to be useful for the prevention and treatment of anterior pituitary hormone-dependent diseases.
Since 1971 when GnRH was first discovered, a large number of its analogs have been synthesized in hopes of exploiting their agonistic or antagonistic activity. For example, leuprolerin acetate is a compound known to have a higher affinity for GnRH receptors than native GnRH and is less liable to be metabolized than the latter.
It is known that, when administered repeatedly, leuprolerin acetate, which is 20 to 50-fold as active as native GnRH, causes a receptor down-regulation to suppress the release and production of gonadotropin in the pituitary gland and in the testis, for it decreases the response to gonadotropin so that its testosterone producing capacity is diminished to the castrated level. It is known that, as a consequence, the drug displays antitumoral effects in hormone-dependent neoplastic diseases such as cancer of the prostate. In fact, leuprolerin acetate is clinically in broad use as a therapeutic drug for prostatic cancer and endometriosis, among other diseases.
However, these GnRH agonists are peptides which are poorly absorbed after oral administration and, hence, restricted in compatible dosage form. Moreover, there are cases in which they transiently manifest agonistic activity after the beginning of use and before the expected efficacy begins to appear, thus causing elevation of serum steroid hormone levels and transitory exacerbation of ostealgia.
Against this background, a great deal of research synthesis of GnRH antagonists which would show therapeutic efficacy and yet be free from the above-mentioned adverse effects has been eagerly undertaken.
2. Related Background Art
Today, as compounds having GnRH receptor antagonizing activity, a large number of cyclic hexapeptide derivatives (JP-A-61-191698) and bicyclic peptide derivatives [J. Med. Chem., 36, 3265-3273, 1993], all conceived from the steric structure of GnRH, have been designed and are known. However, since they all are peptides, these compounds still have the drawbacks of poor absorption after oral administration and poor in vivo stability.
Meanwhile, synthesis of non-peptide compounds having GnRH receptor antagonizing activity has also been attempted. By way of illustration, a benzazepine compound of the formula: ##STR2## [wherein R.sup.1 represents the amino function of an amine of the formula --NR.sup.3 R.sup.4, 4-morpholino, ##STR3## R.sup.2 represents hydrogen, alkoxy, alkyl, trifluoromethyl, halogen, nitro, hydroxyl, or dialkylamino; R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 independently represent hydrogen, alkyl, or alkyl substituted by hydroxyl, halogen or alkoxy; m is equal to 0 or 1; n is equal to 0, 1 or 2; R.sup.5 represents hydroxyl, alkyl, halogen, carboxyl, alkoxycarbonyl, or alkyl substituted by hydroxyl, halogen, alkoxy or phenyl; R.sup.6 represents hydrogen, alkyl, carboxyl, alkoxycarbonyl, or phenyl; and R.sup.7 represents hydrogen, alkyl, alkoxycarbonyl, or alkyl substituted by hydroxyl, halogen, alkoxy, phenoxy or alkoxycarbonyl] is reported in JP-A-62-116514. A compound of the formula: ##STR4## which has LHRH (luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone) antagonizing activity is reported in Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 32, 2036-2038, 1989.
Meanwhile, it is described in JP-A-4-253970 corresponding to U.S. Pat. No. 5,393,959 that a compound of the formula: ##STR5## [wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 each represents hydrogen, hydroxyl, C.sub.1-4 alkyl, C.sub.1-4 alkoxy, halogen, CF.sub.3, or methylenedioxy; R.sub.4 represents hydrogen or C.sub.1-4 alkyl; A represents a bond or C.sub.1-6 alkylene or alkylidene; B is C.sub.1-6 alkylene or alkylidene when Y is a bond, or B is C.sub.2-6 alkylene when Y is O, S or NR.sup.5 ; X represents CH or N; R.sub.5 represents hydrogen or C.sub.1-4 alkyl] has intracellular calcium antagonizing activity and can be used as a therapeutic drug for angina pectoris and myocardial infarction.
Furthermore, Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 34, 12-19 (1991) mentions that a compound of the formula: ##STR6## [wherein Ar.sup.1 and Ar.sup.2 each represents H, phenyl, or 2-, 3- or 4-pyridyl; Am represents 2,6-dimethyl-1-piperidinyl, 1-piperidinyl, or 2,5-dimethyl-1-pyrrolidinyl; n is equal to 1-4; X represents OH, H, cyano, aminomethyl, acetolaminomethyl or carbamoyl] has antiarrhythmic activity. Archives of International Pharmacodynamics, 107, 194-201, 1956 describes that a compound of the formula: ##STR7## [wherein R represents --CONH.sub.2, --NH.sub.2, --NHCOCH.sub.3, --NHCOC.sub.6 H.sub.5, --CH.sub.2 NH.sub.2, --CH.sub.2 NHCOCH.sub.3, --CH.sub.2 NHCOC.sub.6 H.sub.5 or --CN; NAA' represents N(CH.sub.3).sub.2, N(C.sub.2 H.sub.5).sub.2, N(i--C.sub.3 H.sub.7).sub.2, NC.sub.4 H.sub.8, NC.sub.5 H.sub.10 or NC.sub.4 H.sub.8 O] has parasympathomimetic activity.
JP-A-62-123164 mentions that a compound of the formula: ##STR8## [wherein X and Y, which may be the same or different, are selected from the class consisting of phenyl groups which may respectively be substituted by 1 or 2 substituents selected from among halogen, CF.sub.3, OH and C.sub.1-4 alkoxy; R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are the same or different and each is selected from the class consisting of lower alkyl groups of 1-4 carbon atoms, or R.sup.1 and R.sup.2, taken together with the nitrogen atom, form a saturated 5- or 6-membered ring; R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are selected from among hydrogen, lower alkyl or alkenyl of 1-6 carbon atoms, cyclopentyl and cyclohexyl; n is equal to 0 or 1] has antitumoral activity.
However, a non-peptide compound having sufficiently high GnRH receptor antagonizing activity for use as a medicine has not been discovered. Therefore, an aromatic amine derivative structurally different from the above-mentioned known compounds and having GnRH receptor antagonizing activity with a high clinical potential and safety has been awaited in earnest.

The protective group of the acyl type, represented by R.sup.5, may for example be formyl, acetyl, trifluoroacetyl, benzyloxycarbonyl, t-butoxycarbonyl or the like. The leaving group for L includes, for example, halogen such as chlorine, bromine or iodine.
The compound wherein R.sup.1 is R.sup.1a, R.sup.3 is R.sup.3a, P is P.sup.a and Q is Q.sup.a can also be produced by the above processes.
Process 1
The condensation reaction is carried out using 1-1.5 equivalents of a condensing agent, e.g. dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) or 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (WSC) or through a reactive intermediate of the carboxyl function. The reactive intermediate may for example be the acid anhydride, acid halide or activated ester.
The acid anhydride includes mixed acid anhydrides obtainable by reaction with lower-alkyl chlorocarbonate (e.g. ethyl chlorocarbonate, isopropyl chlorocarbonate, butyl chlorocarbonate, etc.) or with phenyl chlorocarbonate.
The acid halide may for example be the acid chloride or acid bromide. The acid chloride can be obtained by, for example, stirring the starting compound with at least 1 equivalent, preferably 3-10 equivalents, of oxalyl chloride, thionyl chloride or phosphorus pentachloride in the absence of a solvent or in an inert solvent such as dichloromethane at 0.degree. C.-100.degree. C., preferably 30.degree. C.-60.degree. C., for 0.5-3 hours.
The activated ester includes esters with 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBT), pentafluorophenol and so on.
The condensation reaction is generally carried out by reacting the starting material with the corresponding amine in an inert solvent (e.g. dichloromethane, acetonitrile, etc.) stirring at 0.degree.-80.degree. C. for 0.5-20 hours. The reaction can be conducted more smoothly in the presence of a base. While the base that can be used includes both inorganic and organic bases, the preferred bases are triethylamine, diisopropylethylamine, 4-dimethylaminopyridine, N-methylmorpholine, 4-pyrrolidylpyridine, 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]-7-undecene (DBU), and DBN, among other bases.
The reduction reaction can be carried out by the known technology (as described in, for example, R. C. Larock, Comprehensive Organic Transformation, VCH Publishers Inc.), for example by using a metal hydride or the like. This reaction can be carried out in an inert solvent (e.g. ethers such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, etc.) using at least one equivalent (preferably 4-10 equivalents) of a metal hydride at -20.degree. C.-100.degree. C., preferably 40.degree. C.-80.degree. C., for 5 minutes to 18 hours.
The preferred metal hydride includes lithium aluminum hydride, aluminum hydride, diborane and analogs thereof, among others.
Conversion to the objective compound of this invention can be achieved by utilizing per se known reactions (e.g. reduction, alkylation, acylation, sulfonylation, or reaction with an isocyanate) in combination.
The acylation and sulfonylation reactions can be carried out in substantially the same manner as the condensation reaction described above.
The reaction with an isocyanate can be carried out by reacting 1-1.5 equivalents of an isocyanate compound with the starting compound in an inert solvent at 0.degree. C.-50.degree. C. for 0.1-10 hours. The presence of a base (catalytic amount to 1 equivalent) such as triethylamine may assist in smooth progress of the reaction.
The alkylation reaction is conducted in an inert solvent at a temperature of 0.degree. C.-100.degree. C. for a time period of 5 minutes to 100 hours. The inert solvent includes alcoholic solvents (e.g. methanol, ethanol, propanol, etc.), ethereal solvents (e.g. diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, etc.), halogen-containing solvents (e.g. dichloroethane, chloroform, etc.), aromatic solvents (e.g. toluene, xylene, etc.), acetonitrile, N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and so on. These solvents can be used singly or in combination. Particularly preferred are acetonitrile, DMF and acetone. The reaction can be conducted with greater efficiency in the presence of a base. For this purpose, both inorganic and organic bases are effective. The inorganic base that can be used includes the hydroxides, carbonates, hydrogen carbonates, and organic acid salts of alkali metals or alkaline earth metals and is preferably selected from among potassium carbonate, sodium carbonate, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium hydrogen carbonate, and potassium hydrogen carbonate. The organic base is preferably a tertiary amine such as triethylamine.
The leaving group is preferably chloro, bromo, iodo, p-toluenesulfonyloxy, or methanesulfonyloxy. Depending upon conditions, monoalkylation and dialkylation can be selectively carried out.
Process 2
The substitution of the leaving group with an amine (HN--R.sup.1 R.sup.2) can be carried out by the conventional technology used for alkylation of amines, for instance. For example, compound (5) is treated with the corresponding amine (HN--R.sup.1 R.sup.2, 1-3 equivalents) in an inert solvent (e.g. DMF, acetone, or an ethereal solvent, used either alone or in combination), where necessary in the presence of 1-5 equivalents of a base (an inorganic base such as potassium carbonate or sodium hydroxide or an organic base such as triethylamine) stirring at a temperature of 0.degree. C.-100.degree. C., preferably 30.degree. C.-60.degree. C., for a time period of 30 minutes to 24 hours.
The reduction step of cyano group can be carried out by the per se known technology (as described in, for example, R. C. Larock, Comprehensive Organic Transformation, VCH Publishers Inc.). Among specific reactions are reduction by means of a metal hydride and catalytic hydrogenation.
The reaction with a metal hydride can be carried out in an inert solvent (e.g. an ethereal solvent such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, etc.) at a temperature of -20.degree. C.-100.degree. C., preferably 40.degree. C.-80.degree. C., for a time period of 5 minutes to 18 hours.
The preferred metal hydride includes lithium aluminum hydride, aluminum hydride, diborane, and analogs thereof, among others.
The catalytic reduction can be carried out using a metal catalyst such as Raney nickel, platinum oxide, palladium metal, palladium-on-carbon or the like in an alcoholic or ethereal solvent at a temperature of 10.degree.

To a solution of 4,4-diphenyl-1-(3-nitrobenzylamino)-5-(tosylamino)pentane (0.17 g) in ethanol (10 ml) was added hydrochloric acid (0.1 ml) as well as 10% palladium-on-carbon (80 mg) and the mixture was subjected to catalytic hydrogenation at atmospheric temperature and pressure. The catalyst was then removed from the reaction mixture and the filtrate was concentrated to dryness. The group was dissolved in water and the solution was made basic with aqueous ammonia. The resulting precipitate was recovered by filtration, rinsed with water, and dried to provide the title compound (0.12 g) as light-tan powder.
Example II-17
4,4-Diphenyl-5-mesylamino-1-(4-phenylpiperidino)pentane Hydrochloride
To a solution of 5-amino-4,4-diphenyl-1-(4-phenylpiperidino)pentane (0.4 g) and triethylamine (0.42 ml) in methylene chloride (15 ml) was added methanesulfonyl chloride (0.1 ml) dropwise under ice-cooling and stirring. After completion of dropwise addition, the mixture was returned to room temperature and stirred for another 3 hours. This reaction mixture was washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrated to dryness. The group was purified by silica gel column chromatography to provide the hydrochloride of the title compound (0.25 g) as colorless powder.

Example III-1
(1) 4,4-Diphenyl-5-hydroxyl-6-heptenenitrile
Under argon gas, 4,4-diphenyl-4-formylbutanenitrile (5.0 g) was dissolved in dry tetrahydrofuran (200 ml). Then, 1M vinylmagnesium bromide-tetrahydrofuran (30 ml) was added dropwise -40.degree. C. After completion of addition, the reaction temperature was allowed to rise gradually to 0.degree. C. (over 3 hours). After completion of the reaction, a saturated aqueous solution of ammonium chloride was added to the reaction mixture and the insoluble matter was filtered off. The filtrate was extracted with ethyl acetate, washed, dried, and concentrated and the group was purified by silica gel column chromatography. The active fraction was concentrated to provide the title compound as oil (5.4 g).

(2) 7-(6,7-Dimethoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-spiro-2'-piperidin-1'-yl)-4,4-diphenyl-5-heptenenitrile Hydrochloride
In tetrahydrofuran (5 ml) was dissolved 4,4-diphenyl-5-hydroxyl-6-heptenenitrile (377 mg) followed by addition of phosphorus tribromide (0.04 ml) with cooling on an ice-water bath. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour, at the end of which time it was extracted with ethyl acetate. The allyl bromide thus obtained was not purified but used in crude form in the next reaction.
In N,N-dimethylformamide (3 ml) was suspended 6,7-dimethoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene-2-spiro-2'-piperidine hydrochloride (193 mg) followed by addition of potassium carbonate (90 mg) and the mixture was stirred for 30 minutes. Then, a solution of the crude allyl bromide in N,N-dimethylformamide was added to the above mixture and a further amount (90 mg) of potassium carbonate was added. The reaction was carried out at 60.degree. C. for 15 hours and this reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate, washed, dried, and concentrated. The group was purified by silica gel column chromatography and the active fraction was concentrated and treated with 4N HCl-ethyl acetate to provide the hydrochloride (200 mg, powder).

(B) Preparation of a Rat GnRH Receptor-containing Anterior Pituitary Membrane Fraction
Forty rats (8 weeks old, male) of Wistar strain were decapitated under no anesthesia and the anterior pituitary isolated from each animal was washed with an ice-cooled homogenate buffer (25 mM Tris (tris(hydroxylmethyl)aminomethane)-HCl, 0.3M sucrose, 1 mM EGTA (ethylene-bis(oxyethylenenitrilo)tetraacetic acid), 0.25 mM PMSF (phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride), 10 U/ml aprotinin, 1 .mu.g/ml pepstatin, 20 .mu.g/ml leupeptin, 100 .mu.g/ml phosphoramidon, 0.03% sodium azide; pH 7.5). The anterior pituitary was suspended in 2 ml of the same homogenate buffer as above and homogenized using a Polytron homogenizer. The homogenate thus prepared was centrifuged at 700 xg for 15 minutes and the supernatant was transferred to an ultracentrifuge cuvette and further centrifuged at 100,000 xg for 1 hour to provide a membrane fraction pellet. This pellet was suspended in 2 ml of an assay buffer (25 mM Tris-HCl, 1 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA), 0.25 mM PMSF, 1 .mu.g/ml pepstatin, 20 .mu.g/ml leupeptin, 100 .mu.g/ml phosphoramidon, 0.03% sodium azide; pH 7.5) and centrifuged at 100,000 xg for 1 hour. The membrane fraction recovered as a pellet was resuspended in 10 ml of the same assay buffer as above, distributed into vials, preserved at -80.degree. C., and reconstituted before use.
(C) Preparation of a Bovine GnRH Receptor-containing Anterior Pituitary Membrane Fraction
A bovine GnRH receptor-containing anterior pituitary membrane fraction was prepared in the same manner as (B) except that the supernatant from the 10,000 xg centrifugate was centrifuged at 100,000 xg for 1 hour to provide a membrane fraction pellet.
(D) Preparation of a Human GnRH Receptor-containing CHO (Chinese Hamster Ovarian) Cell Membrane Fraction
Human GnRH receptor-expressed CHO cells (10.sup.9 cells) were suspended in phosphate buffered saline supplemented with EDTA (PBS-EDTA) and centrifuged at 100 xg for 5 minutes. To the sediment was added 10 ml of a cell homogenate buffer (10 mM NaHCO.sub.3, 5 mM EDTA, pH 7.5) and the mixture was homogenized using a Polytron homogenizer. The homogenate was centrifuged at 400 xg for 15 minutes and the supernatant was transferred to an ultracentrifuge cuvette and centrifuged at 100,000 xg for 1 hour to prepare a membrane fraction pellet. This pellet was suspended in 2 ml of the assay buffer and further centrifuged at 100,000 xg for 1 hour. The membrane fraction recovered as a pellet was resuspended in 20 ml of the assay buffer, distributed into vials, preserved at -80.degree. C., and reconstituted before use.
(E) Determination of the .sup.125 I-leuprolerin Binding Inhibition Rate
The rat and human membrane fractions prepared under (B) and (D) were respectively diluted with the assay buffer to make 200 .mu.g/ml each and 188 .mu.l aliquots of each dilution were distributed into tubes. The bovine membrane fraction prepared under (C) was diluted with the assay buffer to make 750 .mu.g/ml and 188 .mu.l aliquots of the dilution were distributed into tubes. When the rat anterior pituitary membrane fraction was used, 2 .mu.l of 0.1 mM compound/60% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and 10 .mu.l of 38 nM .sup.125 I-leuprolerin were concurrently added. When the bovine anterior pituitary membrane fraction and the human GnRH receptor-expressed CHO cell membrane fraction were used, 2 .mu.l of 2 mM compound/60% DMSO and 10 .mu.l of 38 nM .sup.125 I-leuprolerin were concurrently added. For determination of maximum binding, a reaction mixture was prepared by adding 2 .mu.l of 60% DMSO and 10 .mu.l of 38 nM .sup.125 I-leuprolerin. For determination of non-specific binding, a reaction mixture was prepared using 2 .mu.l of 100 .mu.M leuprolerin/60% DMSO and 10 .mu.l of 3.8 nM .sup.125 I-leuprolerin.
When the rat and bovine anterior pituitary membrane fractions were used, each reaction was carried out at 4.degree. C. for 90 minutes. On the other hand, when the human GnRH receptor-expressed CHO cell membrane fraction was used, the reaction was conducted at 25.degree. C. for 60 minutes. After completion of the reaction, the reaction mixture was suction-filtered through a polyethyleneimine-treated Whatman glass filter (GF-F) [trademark;whatman]. After filtration, the radioactivity of the residual .sup.125 I-leuprolerin on the filter was measured using a .gamma.-counter.
The computation formula of (TB-SB)/(TB-NSB).times.100 (SB=radioactivity bound in the presence of the test compound, TB=maximum amount of radioactivity bound, NSB=amount of radioactivity nonspecifically bound) was calculated to find the binding inhibition rate for the test compound. Moreover, the inhibition rate was determined by varying the concentration of each test compound and the concentration of the compound causing 50% inhibition of binding (IC.sub.50 value) was calculated by Hill plot.
The results are shown in Table 30.
