The compounds of general formula I and their precursors are prepared by methods known in principle, whilst processes derived from peptide chemistry (of for example Houben-Weyl, Methoden der Organischen Chemie, vol. 15/2) may particularly be used. The amino protecting groups used may be those described in Houben-Weyl, Methoden der Organischen Chemie, vol. 15/1, whilst urethane protecting groups, such as, for example, the fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl, phenylmethoxycarbonyl or tert.-butyloxycarbonyl group, are preferred. Any functional groups present in the side chain of the compounds of general formula I or in their precursors are additionally protected by suitable protecting groups to prevent side reactions (of for example: G. B. Fields et al., Int. J. Peptide Protein Res. 35, 161 (1990); T. W. Greene, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis). Examples of side chain-protected amino acids of this kind include in particular Arg(NO.sub.2), Arg(Mtr), Arg(di-Z), Arg(Pmc), Orn(Boc), Orn(Z), which are generally commercially obtainable, optionally in the form of their derivatives. Care should be taken in particular to ensure that so-called orthogonal combinations of protecting groups are used for protecting the .alpha.-amino and the side chain amino group, e.g.:
______________________________________Protection of the N(side chain) N.sup.a -protection______________________________________p-toluenesulphonyl phenylmethoxycarbonyl tert.butoxycarbonylphenylmethoxycarbonyl (4-methoxyphenyl)methoxycarbonyl tert. butoxycarbonyl adamantyloxycarbonyl biphenylylisopropyloxycarbonyl isonicotinoyloxycarbonyl o-nitrophenylsulphenyl formyltert. butoxycarbonyl phenylmethoxycarbonyl p-toluenesulphonyl o-nitrophenylsulphenyl biphenylylisopropyloxycarbonyl 9-fluorenylmethoxycarbonylacetyl, trifluoroacetyl, tert.butoxycarbonylformyl, (2-chlorophenyl)-methoxycarbonyl, (4-chloro-phenyl)methoxycarbonyl,4-(nitrophenyl)methoxycar-bonyl, phthaloyl______________________________________
For the actual coupling the methods known from peptide chemistry (cf for example Houben-Weyl, Methoden der Organischen Chemie, vol. 15/2) are used. Preferably, carbodiimides, such as e.g. dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC), diisopropylcarbodiimide (DIC) or ethyl-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-carbodiimide, O-(1H-benzotriazol-1-yl)-N,N,N',N'-tetramethyluroniumhexafluorophosphate (HBTU) or -tetrafluoroborate (TBTU) or 1H-benzotriazol-1-yl-oxy-tris-(dimethylamino)-phosphoniumhexafluorophosphate (BOP), are used. If desired, it is also possible to suppress racemisation or speed up the reaction by the addition of 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBt) or 3-hydroxy-4-oxo-3,4-dihydro-1,2,3-benzotriazine (HOObt). The couplings are normally carried out with equimolar amounts of the coupling components and the coupling reagent in solvents such as dichloromethane, tetrahydrofuran, acetonitrile, dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethylacetamide (DMA), N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) or mixtures thereof and at temperatures of between -30 and +30.degree. C., preferably -20 and +20.degree. C. If necessary, N-ethyl-diisopropylamine (DIEA; Hunig base) is preferred as an additional auxiliary base.
The so-called "anhydride method" (cf. also: M. Bodanszky, "Peptide Chemistry", Springer-Verlag 1988, P. 58-59; M. Bodanszky, "Principles of Peptide Synthesis", Springer-Verlag 1984, P. 21-27) is used as another coupling method for synthesising compounds of general formula I. It is preferable to use the "mixed anhydride method" in the variant according to Vaughan (J. R. Vaughan Jr., J. Amer. Chem.Soc. 73, 3547 (1951)), in which the mixed anhydride is obtained from the optionally N.sup.2 -protected .alpha.-amino acid and the monoisobutyl carbonate which are to be coupled, using isobutyl chlorocarbonate in the presence of bases such as 4-methylmorpholine or 4-ethylmorpholine. The preparation of this mixed anhydride and the coupling with amines are carried out in a one-pot method, using the abovementioned solvents and at temperatures between -20 and +20.degree. C., preferably 0 and +20.degree. C.
Any protecting groups present in the .alpha.-amino acid side chain and not wanted in the end product are finally cleaved after the synthesis of the N- and C-terminally substituted amino acid derivative with suitable reagents which are also in principle known from the literature, namely arylsulphonyl and hetarylsulphonyl protecting groups are preferably cleaved acidolytically, i.e. by the action of strong acids, preferably trifluoroacetic acid, nitro and arylmethoxycarbonyl protecting groups are cleaved hydrogenolytically, e.g. with hydrogen in the presence of palladium black and using glacial acetic acid as solvent. If the substrate contains functions which are sensitive to hydrogenolysis, e.g. halogen atoms, such as chlorine, bromine or iodine, a phenylmethanol or hetarylmethanol function or another benzylheteroatom bond, particularly a benzyl-oxygen bond, the cleaving of the nitro group may also be carried out non-hydrogenolytically, e.g. with zinc/2N trifluoroacetic acid (cf also: A. Turan, A. Patthy and S. Bajusz, Acta Chim. Acad. Sci. Hung., Tom. 85 (3), 327-332 [1975]; C. A. 83, 206526y [1975]), with tin(II)chloride in 60% aqueous formic acid (cf also: SUNSTAR KK, JA-A-3271-299), with zinc in the presence of acetic acid (cf also: A. Malabarba, P. Ferrari, G. Cietto, R. Pallanza and M. Berti, J. Antibiot. 42 (12)1800-1816 (1989)) or excess aqueous 20% titanium(III)chloride in aqueous methanol and in the presence of aqueous ammonium acetate buffer at 24.degree. C. (cf also: R. M. Freidinger, R. Hirschmann and D. F. Veber, J. Org. Chem. 43 (25), 4800-4803 [1978]).
The following processes are particularly suitable for preparing the compounds of general formula I according to the invention:
a) Coupling compounds of general formula II, ##STR4## wherein R, R.sup.1, R.sup.3, U and n are as hereinbefore defined and R.sup.2 ' has the meanings given for R2 hereinbefore or also denotes one of the protecting groups mentioned hereinbefore for the protection of the side chain of arginine, with compounds of general formula III, ##STR5## wherein m, V and Y have the meanings given hereinbefore,
and, if necessary, subsequently cleaving protecting groups using the methods described hereinbefore.
The coupling is carried out using the methods known from peptide chemistry and described hereinbefore, particularly using DCC, DIC, HBTU, TBTU or BOP as reagents or using the mixed anhydride method.
If the starting compound II used is enantiomerically pure, then, if U does not represent an oxygen atom or an NH group, partial racemisation must be expected during the coupling step if triethylamine is used as the auxiliary base and dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide or N-methyl-pyrrolidone is used as solvent and in some cases substantial or even quantitative racemisation must be expected.
For preparing compounds of general formula I wherein Y denotes an oxygen atom, the variant recommended by A. Hassner and V. Alexonian, Tetrahedron Letters 1978, 4475-4478, i.e. reaction at ambient temperature and in the presence of DCC and 4-(1-pyrrolidinyl)pyridine as base, has proved particularly successful.
b) For preparing compounds of general formula I wherein U has the meanings given hereinbefore with the exception of an oxygen atom and the --NH-- group:
Coupling compounds of general formula IV,
R--(CH.sub.2).sub.n --U.sup.1 --CO--Nu (IV)
wherein
R and n are as hereinbefore defined, U.sup.1 denotes a single bond and Nu a leaving group, for example the hydroxy group, a halogen atom, such as the chlorine, bromine or iodine atom, an alkylsulphonyloxy group with 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a phenylsulphonyloxy or naphthylsulphonyloxy group optionally mono-, di- or trisubstituted by chlorine or bromine atoms, by methyl or nitro groups, whilst the substituents may be identical or different,
with .alpha.-amino acid derivatives of general formula V, ##STR6## wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.3, Y, m and V are as hereinbefore defined and R.sup.2 ' has the meanings given for R.sup.2 hereinbefore or also denotes one of the protecting groups mentioned hereinbefore for the protection of the side chain of arginine,
and, if necessary, subsequently cleaving protecting groups using the methods described hereinbefore.
If in general formula IV Nu denotes the hydroxy group, the coupling methods known from peptide chemistry and discussed in detail above will be used, particularly using the abovementioned coupling reagents DCC, DIC, HBTU, TBTU or BOP, or the mixed anhydride method will be used.
If in general formula IV Nu denotes a halogen atom, an alkyl or arylsulphonyloxy group, the reaction is carried out under Schotten-Baumann or Einhorn conditions, i.e. the components are reacted in the presence of at least one equivalent of an auxiliary base at temperatures of between -50.degree. C. and +120.degree. C., preferably -10.degree. C. and +30.degree. C., and optionally in the presence of solvents. Examples of preferred auxiliary bases include alkali and alkaline earth hydroxides, for example sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide or barium hydroxide, alkali metal carbonates, e.g. sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate or caesium carbonate, alkali metal acetates, e.g. sodium or potassium acetate, and tertiary amines, for example pyridine, 2,4,6-trimethylpyridine, quinoline, triethylamine, N-ethyl-diisopropylamine, N-ethyl-dicyclohexylamine, 1,4-diazabicyclo[2,2,2]octane or ],8-diazabicyclo[5,4,0]undec-7-ene, preferred solvents include for example dichloromethane, tetrahydrofuran, 1,4-dioxan, acetonitrile, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, N-methyl-pyrrolidone or mixtures thereof; if alkali or alkaline earth hydroxides, alkali metal carbonates or acetates are used as auxiliary bases, water may also be added to the reaction mixture as a cosolvent.
c) For preparing compounds of general formula I wherein Y denotes an oxygen atom:
Transesterifying amino acid esters of general formula VI, ##STR7## wherein R, R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, U and n are as hereinbefore defined and R.sup.8 denotes an alkyl group with 1 to 4 carbon atoms,
with an alcohol of general formula VII, ##STR8## wherein m and V are as hereinbefore defined.
The transesterification may be catalysed with an acid or alkaline catalyst (cf. also: J. March, "Advanced Organic Chemistry", John Wiley & Sons, Third Edition, 1985, P. 351-352). Preferred alkaline catalysts are the corresponding alkali metal alkoxides which are easily obtained from the alcohols of general formulae VII or R.sup.8 OH, e.g. lithium, sodium or potassium alkoxides; preferred acid catalysts include, in addition to anhydrous hydrogen chloride, in particular, sulphuric acid, p-toluene-sulphonic acid, naphthalene-1- or -2-sulphonic acid or acid ion exchanger freshly charged with hydrogen ions, e.g. Wofatit KPS z.A. The equilibrium between the two esters in the equation is shifted in the right direction in this process by distilling off the more volatile alcohol R.sup.8 OH.
With alkaline catalysis, if the starting compound VI used was enantiomerically pure, the end product of general formula I is obtained as a racemate.
d) For preparing compounds of general formula I wherein Y denotes an oxygen atom:
Reacting salts, preferably alkali metal salts, of the carboxylic acids of general formula II, ##STR9## wherein R, R.sup.1, R.sup.3, U and n are as hereinbefore defined and R.sup.2 ' has the meanings given for R.sup.2 hereinbefore or also denotes one of the protecting groups mentioned hereinbefore for the protection of the side chain of arginine,
with compounds of general formula VIII, ##STR10## wherein m and V are as hereinbefore defined and Nu.sup.1 denotes a leaving group, for example a halogen atom, such as the chlorine, bromine or iodine atom, an alkylsulphonyloxy group with 1 to 10 carbon atoms, a phenylsulphonyloxy or naphthylsulphonyloxy group optionally mono-, di- or trisubstituted by chlorine or bromine atoms, or by methyl or nitro groups, whilst the substituents may be identical or different, and, if necessary, subsequently cleaving protecting groups using the methods described hereinbefore.
The reaction is carried out in a suitable solvent, preferably in the presence of dipolar aprotic solvents such as dimethylsulphoxide, hexamethylphosphotriamide, 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone, dimethylacetamide, dimethylformamide or N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone at temperatures of between -10.degree. C. and +50.degree. C., but preferably at ambient temperature. The alkali metal salts of the carboxylic acids of general formula II are preferably produced in situ by the action of alkali metal carbonates, e.g. potassium or caesium carbonate, alkali metal hydroxides, e.g. sodium hydroxide, or alkali metal hydrides, e.g. sodium hydride, on the compounds of general formula II, before the compounds of general formula VIII are added (cf. also: J. E. Schaw, D. C. Kunerth and J. J. Sherry, Tetrahedron Letters 1973, 689-692; A. M. MacLeod, K. J. Merchant, M. A. Cascieri, P. Sadowski, E. Ber, C. J. Serain and R. Baker, J. Med. Chem. 36, 2044-2045 (1993); A. Rosowsky, R. A. Forsch, Ch. -P. Yu, H. Lazarus and G. P. Beardsley, J. Med. Chem. 27, 605-609 (1984)).

Occasionally, for example if Nu.sup.2 is an alkoxy group, it is advantageous to use, instead of the compounds of general formula X, the inorganic acid salts thereof, e.g. the neutral sulphates or the hydrochlorides thereof.

The conversion of the cyanoguanidines of general formula XXI into the aminothiocarbonylguanidines of general formula XXIII is most easily carried out by treating with hydrogen sulphide at temperatures of between ambient temperature and 100.degree. C., preferably between 40.degree. C. and 80.degree. C. (cf. also: F. Kurzer, J.Chem. Soc. 1955, 1-6; Org. Synth., Coll. Vol. 4, 502-504 (1963)). Pyridine is the preferred solvent for this reaction. The reaction of the aminothiocarbonyl compounds of general formula XXIII to obtain the thiazoles of general formula XXII is preferably carried out in boiling acetone and first yields the hydrohalic acid salts of the thiazoles of general formula XXII, which are only converted into the free bases in the course of working up, particularly during column or flash chromatography in the presence of ammonia-containing eluants. The reaction may, however, also be carried out in the presence of weak inorganic bases, particularly sodium hydrogen carbonate, and then directly yields the free bases of general formula XXII.
o) For preparing compounds of general formula I wherein U denotes the oxygen atom:

The reaction is carried out at temperatures of between 0 and 150.degree. C., preferably at temperatures of between 20 and 100.degree. C., and optionally in the presence of anhydrous solvents, e.g. tetrahydrofuran, 1,4-dioxan, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone or 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone or mixtures thereof, and in the presence of auxiliary bases. The auxiliary bases used may be alkali metal carbonates, e.g. sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate or caesium carbonate, alkali metal acetates, e.g. sodium or potassium acetate, but preferably tertiary amines, for example pyridine, 2,4,6-trimethylpyridine, quinoline, triethylamine, N-ethyl-diisopropylamine, N-ethyl-dicyclohexylamine, 1,4-diazabicyclo[2,2,2]octane or 1,8-diazabicyclo[5,4,0]-undec-7-ene.
The amino acid derivatives of general formula I according to the invention contain at least one chiral centre. If in addition the group R is prochiral or chiral, the compounds may occur in the form of two diastereomeric pairs of antipodes. The invention includes the individual isomers as well as the mixtures thereof.
The diastereomers are separated on the basis of their different physico-chemical properties, e.g. by fractional crystallisation from suitable solvents, by high pressure liquid or column chromatography using chiral or preferably achiral stationary phases.
The racemates of general formula I may be separated for example by HPLC on suitable chiral stationary phases (e.g. Chiral AGP, Chiralpak AD). Racemates which contain a basic function may also be separated by means of the diastereomeric, optically active salts which are formed on reacting with an optically active acid, for example (+)-or (-)-tartaric acid, (+) or (-)-diacetyltartaric acid, (+) or (-)-monomethyl tartrate or (+)-camphorsulphonic acid.
According to a conventional method of isomer separation the racemate of a compound of general formula I is reacted with one of the abovementioned optically active acids in equimolar amounts in a solvent and the crystalline, diastereomeric, optically active salts obtained are separated using their differences in solubility. This reaction may be carried out in any kind of solvent provided that it exhibits a sufficient difference in terms of the solubility of the salts. Preferably, methanol, ethanol or the mixtures thereof are used, for example in a ratio by volume of 50:50. Then each of the optically active salts is dissolved in water, neutralised with a base, such as sodium carbonate or potassium carbonate, sodium hydroxide solution or potassium hydroxide solution and the corresponding free compound is obtained in the (+) or (-) form.
Only the (R)-enantiomer or a mixture of two optically active, diastereomeric compounds of general formula I is obtained by carrying out the above-described syntheses with a reaction component containing the corresponding (R)-configured amino acid.
The starting materials of general formulae III, IV, VI, VII, VIII, IX, X, XI, XIII, XV, XVI, XIXa, XIXb, XIXc, XXIV, XXV required for synthesising the compounds of general formula I and the amino acids used are commercially obtainable or may be prepared by methods known from the literature. The acids II are obtained for example under the conditions of a Schotten-Baumann or Einhorn reaction from the corresponding .alpha.-amino acids and compounds of general formulae IV, XVI or XXV (cf. also: M. Bodanszky and A. Bodanszky, "The Practice of Peptide Synthesis", Springer Verlag 1984, P. 9 to 31).
Isocyanates of general formula XIV may readily be prepared from .alpha.-amino acid derivatives of general formula V or from the hydrochlorides thereof by reacting with phosgene, diphosgene or triphosgene in the presence of pyridine (cf. also: J. P. Nowick, N. A. Powell, T. M. Nguyen and G. Noronha, J. Org. Chem. 57, 7364-7366 [1992]).
The starting compounds of general formula V may in turn be obtained from amino acids suitably protected at the .alpha.-amino group as described hereinbefore and compounds of general formula III analogously to method a). The compounds required as starting materials, uronium salts of general formula XII, are most easily obtained by adding R.sup.11 OH alcohols to the corresponding cyanamides, for example using potassium cyanide (cf. also: A. Donetti et al., Tetrah. Lett. 1969, 3327-3328; A. Donetti et al., J. Org. Chem. 37, 3352-3353 (1972); M. Okahara et al., Tetrah. Lett. 1981, 4105-4106) or sodium methoxide (cf. also: F. C. Schaefer et al., J. Org. Chem. 26, 412-418 (1961); R. M. Giuliano et al., J. Org. Chem. 51, 2304-2307 (1986); F. H. P. Hurd et al., J. Chem Soc. 1949, 1732-1738)) as catalysts, the thiuronium salts of general formula XII are obtained from corresponding thioureas by reaction with alkylating agents of type R.sup.11 --X, wherein X denotes, for example, the iodine atom or the groups OSO.sub.2 CH.sub.3 or OSO.sub.2 C.sub.6 H.sub.4 CH.sub.3 (p). The starting compounds of general formula XVII can easily be produced from precursors which carry, instead of the terminal group --(CH.sub.2).sub.o --Y.sup.1 --H of general formula XVII, an end group --(CH.sub.2).sub.o --Y.sup.1 --Pg characterised by readily cleavable protecting groups Pg, e.g. tert.butoxycarbonyl or phenylmethoxycarbonyl, or precursor groups, for example --(CH.sub.2).sub.o-1 -C.tbd.N or --(CH.sub.2).sub.o NO.sub.2. The preparation of the starting compounds of general formula XVIII is described in WO 94/17035 and in German Patent Application P 44 25 545.4 or may be carried out by analogous methods. Processes for preparing the cyanoguanidines of general formula XXI required as starting compounds are also discussed in WO 94/17035. Finally, the starting compounds of general formula XXV may be obtained in the same way as the starting compounds of general formula V.
The compounds of general formula I obtained may be converted into their physiologically acceptable salts with inorganic or organic acids, particularly for pharmaceutical applications. Examples of acids for this purpose include hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, phosphoric acid, nitric acid, sulphuric acid, methanesulphonic acid, p-toluenesulphonic acid, acetic acid, fumaric acid, succinic acid, lactic acid, mandelic acid, malic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid or maleic acid.
Moreover, the new compounds of formula I thus obtained, if they contain a carboxy group, may subsequently, if desired, be converted into the addition salts thereof with inorganic or organic bases, particularly, for pharmaceutical use, into the physiologically acceptable addition salts thereof. Suitable bases include for example sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, ammonia, cyclohexylamine, dicyclohexylamine, ethanolamine, diethanolamine and triethanolamine.
The new compounds of general formula I and the physiologically acceptable salts thereof have NPY-antagonistic properties and exhibit good affinities in NPY-receptor binding studies. The compounds exhibit NPY-antagonistic properties both in vivo and in vitro in the pharmacological test systems described hereinafter.
To demonstrate the affinity of compounds of general formula I for human NPY-receptors and their antagonistic properties the following experiments were carried out:
A. Binding studies with SK--N--MC cells (expressing the human Y.sub.1 -receptor)
The cells are detached by a mixture of 0.02% EDTA in PBS and resuspended in 10 ml of incubation medium (MEM/25 mM Hepes+0,5% BSA, 50 mM PMSF, 0,1% bacitracin, 3,75 mM CaCl.sub.2) per approx. 40 million cells. After 5 min centrifugation (150.times.g) the pellet is resuspended in the same volume and after another washing step resuspended in 10 ml of incubation medium, counted and diluted down to 1.25 million cells/ml. Then 200 ul of a suspension of 1.25 million cells/ml are incubated for 3 hours at ambient temperature with 25 ul of a 300 pM solution of [.sup.125 I]-Bolton-Hunter-NPY and increasing concentrations (10.sup.-11 to 10.sup.-6 M) of the test substances, maintaining a total volume of 250 ul. The incubation is ended by centrifugation (10 min at 3000.times.g and 4.degree. C.). After washing once with PBS the radioactivity of the pellet is measured in the gamma-counter. The radioactivity thus obtained represents the sum of specific and non-specific binding of [.sup.125 ]-Bolton-Hunter-NPY. The amount of non-specific binding is defined as the radioactivity which is bound in the presence of 1 uM NPY. The IC.sub.50 values of the unlabelled test substances are determined graphically. They represent the concentration of the relevant test substance at which the specific binding of [.sup.125 I]-Bolton-Hunter-NPY to the NPY--Y.sub.1 receptor is inhibited by 50%.
The compounds of general formula I have IC.sub.50 -values of <7,000 nM in the test described.
B. In vitro NPY-antagonism
Male rats (CHbb: THOM, 300 to 350 g) are given heparin (100 IU, i.v.) and the animals are then killed by a blow to the back of the neck. The abdomen is opened up along the centre of the body and the left kidney is removed, after the insertion of catheters in the renal artery, the renal vein and the ureter. The isolated kidney is immediately perfused with a modified Krebs-Ringer solution (4 ml/minute) of the following composition:
______________________________________NaCl 118.0 mmol/lKH.sub.2 PO.sub.4 1.2 mmol/lKCl mmol/l 4.8HgSO.sub.4 mmol/lCaCl.sub.2 mmol/lNaHCO.sub.3 25.0 mmol/lGlucose mmol/l______________________________________
A mixture of 95% O.sub.2 /5% CO.sub.2 is passed through the solution which is maintained at a temperature of 37.degree. C. The perfusion pressure is measured continuously using a pressure recorder. After a 60-minute stabilising period the perfusion rate is adjusted so as to achieve a perfusion pressure of about 100 mm Hg. After another 30 minutes the experiment is started and NPY (1 mM) is administered as a bolus (0.1 ml) at 15 minute intervals until the pressure increase observed achieves a constant value. The compounds to be investigated are administered as a continuous infusion over a period of 5 minutes and then NPY is injected. After a 30-minute washing-out period the next-highest concentration of the test substance is investigated. For each test, 3 to 5 different concentrations of the relevant compound are tested. Concentration-activity-curves can be drawn by plotting the percentage inhibition of the NPY activity against the logarithm of the concentration (mol/l) of the compound.
The compounds of general formula I exhibit NPY-antagonistic properties in the in-vitro test model described, in a dosage range of between 10.sup.-8 and 10.sup.-5 M.
C. In-vivo-NPY antagonism
Male rats with normal blood pressure (Chbb:THOM, 300 to 350 g) are anaesthetised with sodium hexobarbital (150 mg/kg, i.p.). After intubation of the trachea the animals are pithed by the insertion of a blunt needle through the eye into the central canal of the spinal cord. The animals are ventilated with oxygen-enriched ambient air using a ventilator pump (20 strokes per minute). A cannula is inserted into the left carotid artery and the arterial blood pressure is measured using a pressure transducer (Braun Melsungen Combitrans) attached to a recording instrument. For injection purposes a catheter is inserted in the left jugular vein, through which heparin is administered (200 IU/kg, i.v.). After the blood pressure has been stabilised the animals are given 2 bolus injections of NPY (10 mg/kg, i.v.) at an interval of 15 minutes. The mean increase in diastolic blood pressure serves as a reference value (=100%). The test substances are injected in increasing doses (4 to 6 doses) at 15 minute intervals. One minute after the administration of the test substance NPY is given.
The antagonistic activity of the test substances is determined by plotting the percentage inhibition of the NPY-induced blood pressure effects against the logarithm of the concentration of active substance.
The compounds of general formula I display NPY-antagonistic properties in the in vivo test model after intravenous administration in a dosage range of 0.001 to 10 mg/kg.
In view of their pharmacological properties the compounds of general formula I and the physiologically acceptable salts thereof are thus suitable for treating cardiovascular diseases, e.g. for treating arterial hypertension, hypertensive crisis, stress-induced high blood pressure triggered, for example, by the environment, by physical exertion or cold irritation, chronic cardiac insufficiency, coronary heart disease, such as angina pectoris, myocardial infarct and syndrome X, and also for treating subarachnoid bleeding, vascular-hypertrophic changes, e.g. restenosis after coronary angioplasty (PCTA), cerebral and coronary vasospasms, e.g. stroke, chronic kidney failure, hyperthyroidism, obesity and diabetes, epileptic diseases and for diagnosing, evaluating the prognosis of and treating tumoral diseases, for example pheochromocytomas, neuro(fibro)blastomas, ganglioneuromas, ganglioneuroblastomas, rhabdomyosarcomas, malignant ectomesenchymomas, anaplastic astrocytomas or haemangioblastomas.
The dosage required to achieve the corresponding effect is appropriately, for intravenous administration, 0.01 to 3 mg/kg of body weight, preferably 0.1 to 1 mg/kg of body weight, and for oral administration 0.1 to 10 mg/kg of body weight, preferably 1 to 10 mg/kg of body weight, 1 to 3.times. a day.
For this purpose the compounds of general formula I prepared according to the invention, optionally in conjunction with other active substances, such as e.g. hypotensive agents, ACE-inhibitors, diuretics and/or calcium antagonists, together with one or more inert conventional carriers and/or diluents, e.g. with corn starch, lactose, glucose, microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, citric acid, tartaric acid, water, water/ethanol, water/glycerol, water/sorbitol, water/polyethyleneglycol, propyleneglycol, cetylstearylalcohol, carboxy-methylcellulose or fatty substances such as hard fat or suitable mixtures thereof, may be incorporated in conventional galenic preparations such as plain or coated tablets, capsules, powders, suspensions or suppositories.
Additional active substances for the abovementioned combinations might thus include, for example, bendroflumethiazide, chlorothiazide, hydrochlorothiazide, spironolactone, benzthiazide, cyclothiazide, ethacrinic acid, furosemide, metoprolol, prazosine, atenolol, propranolol, (di)hydralazine-hydrochloride, diltiazem, felodipine, nicardipine, nifedipine, nisoldipine, nitrendipine, captopril, enalapril, lisinopril, cilazapril, quinapril, fosinopril and ramipril. The dosage for these active substances is conveniently from 1/5 of the minimum dose normally recommended up to 1/1 of the normally recommended dose, i.e. for example 15 to 200 mg of hydrochlorothiazide, 125 to 2000 mg of chlorothiazide, 15 to 200 mg of ethacrinic acid, 5 to 80 mg of furosemide, 20 to 480 mg of propranolol, 5 to 60 mg of felodipine, 5 to 60 mg of nifedipine or 5 to 60 mg of nitrendipine.
The invention further relates to the use of the compounds of general formula I as valuable adjuvants for the production and purification (by affinity chromatography) of antibodies and, after suitable radiolabelling, for example by direct labelling with .sup.125 I or .sup.131 I or by tritiation of suitable precursors, for example by replacing halogen atoms with tritium, in RIA and ELISA assays and as a diagnostic or analytical aid in neutrotransmitter research.





The Examples which follow are intended to illustrate the invention:
Preliminary remarks:
"Mp." denotes "melting point", "D." denotes "decomposition". For all the compounds there are satisfactory elemental analyses, IR, UV, .sup.1 H-NMR and generally also mass spectra. Unless otherwise stated, R.sub.f values were determined using ready-made silica gel TLC plates 60 F.sub.254, layer thickness 0.25 mm (E. Merck, Darmstadt, serial no. 1.05729) and an eluant consisting of ethyl acetate/methanol=1/1 (v/v) (variant A) or n-butanol/glacial acetic acid/water=4/1/1 (v/v/v) (variant B), without chamber saturation. If the configuration is not specified in detail it is unclear whether it is the (R)-enantiomer or whether partial or even total racemisation has occurred.
