Aminopyridine compounds

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to novel aminopyridine compounds useful as agents for treating diseases of the circulatory system.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
As agents for the circulatory system, particularly therapeutic agents for hypertension, various compounds are commercially available or currently under development. In recent years, the possibility of treatment of circulatory diseases based on a new mechanism called "potassium channel opener" has been suggested and various investigations have been made, based on this theory.
Typical examples of drugs based on the above mechanism are Pinacidil [N"-cyano-N-4-pyridyl-N'-(1,2,2-trimethylpropyl)guanidine] having an N-pyridyl-N'-cyanoguanidine skeleton and Cromakalim [(+,-)-6-cyano-3,4-dihydro -2,2-dimethyl-trans-4-(2-oxo-1-pyrrolidinyl)-2H -benzo(b)pyran-3-ol] having a benzopyran skeleton.
At present, however, it cannot be said that Pinacidil nor Cromakalim possess sufficient pharmacological effects without side effects. In particular, Pinacidil causes stagnation as a side effect, and the problems of edema, vascular headache, cardiopalmus, etc. remain unsolved.
In order to solve the above problems, new compounds thought to have an improved overall pharmacological effect are currently under investigation.
As such compounds, N-alkyl-N'-pyridyl-thioureas and N-alkyl-N'-pyridyl-N'-cyanoguanidines [JP-A-51-86474 (the term "JP-A" as used herein means an "unexamined published Japanese patent application") and JP-A-52-83573 corresponding to U.S. Pat. No. 4,057,636] and N-substituted-N-aryl-thioureas and N-substituted-N-aryl-N'-cyanoguanidines (JP-A-2-91057 corresponding to EP 354553 and JP-A-2-290841 corresponding to EP 392802) have been reported.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present inventors conducted intensive investigation in view of the above-described situation. As a result, the present inventors succeeded in synthesizing novel compounds showing excellent pharmacological effect and relieved side effects, compared to Pinacidil which is a known compound, and other compounds having similar structures.

The novel compound (1) of the present invention thus produced can be collected as a product of arbitrary purity, appropriately using known separation and purification techniques such as concentration, extraction, chromatography, reprecipitation and recrystallization.
The compound (1) of the present invention has a basic group, so that it can be converted to the acid salt by techniques known in the art. There is no particular restriction on such a salt, as long as it is pharmaceutically acceptably non-toxic. Examples of such salts include inorganic acid salts (for example, hydrochlorides, hydrobromides, phosphates and sulfates) and organic acid salts (for example, acetates, succinates, maleates, fumarates, malates and tartrates).
The compounds (1) and the acid salts thereof of the present invention are very non-toxic, and have strong, sustained hypotensive, peripheral vasodilative, coronary vasodilative and cerebal vasodilative activities in mammals (for example, mice, rats, rabbits, dogs, cats and humans). They are therefore useful as prophylactic or therapeutic agents for circulatory diseases such as hypertension, ischemic heart diseases (for example, angina pectoris and myocardinal infarction) and cerebral and peripheral circulatory afflictions (for example, cerebral infarction and transient cerebral ischemic attack).
In particular, the compounds (1) and the acid salts thereof of the present invention are excellent in both the potency of the pharmacological action and the persistency thereof, compared to the conventional compounds having similar structures (for example, Pinacidil). For example, when they are used as prophylactic or therapeutic agents for hypertension, a stable hypotensive activity can be obtained by infrequent administration (once or twice a day).
Further, the compounds of the present invention are superior in a beneficial effect on blood lipids to Pinacidil. Therefore, the compounds of the present invention are expected to be useful for not only amelioration of lipometabolism but also relaxation of smooth muscle involved in gastrointestinal tract, respiratory system and uterus.
When the compounds (1) and the acid salts thereof of the present invention are used as the above-described drugs, pharmaceutically acceptable additives such as carriers, excipients and diluents are mixed with pharmaceutically required components to prepare medical compositions in powder, granule, tablet, capsule or injection form, which can be given orally or parenterally. The compounds (1) and the acid salts thereof of the present invention are contained in effective amounts thereof in the above-described preparations. The dosage varies depending on the administration route, the symptom, and the weight or the age of the patient. For example, when the preparations are orally given to adult patients with hypertension, it is desirable that the patients are dosed with 0.05 to 20 mg/kg of body weight/day, preferably with 0.1 to 4 mg/kg of body weight/day, administered once or in several divided doses.

The invention will be illustrated in more detail by reference to the following examples, but the invention is not limited to these examples.

PHARMACOLOGICAL TESTS
In order to show the utility of the compounds of the present invention, results of pharmacological tests for typical compounds are shown below.
(A) Vasodepressor Activity
(1) Test method
Male Wistar rats having a body weight of 300 g were used for the test. The rat intravenously anesthetized with 50 mg/kg of pentobarbital sodium was fixed at its back, and a polyethylene catheter was inserted into the left common carotid artery for measurement of the blood pressure. The blood pressure and the heart rate were continuously recorded on a polygraph through a tachometer and a pressure transducer. The drug was given in bolus form through a wing-like needle placed in the caudal vein.
(2) Test results
Test results are shown in Table 2.
TABLE 2______________________________________ Maximum Effect (%)Test Compound Dosage Diastolic Systolic(Example No.) (mg/kg) Pressure Pressure______________________________________ 7 3 73 5924 3 71 52______________________________________ note: Maximum effect indicates the parcentage of the lowest blood pressur after administration of the drug based on the blood pressure before the administration of the drug.
(B) Activity on Autonomous Contraction of Portal Vein Extirpated from Rat
(1) Test method
A male Wistar rat having a body weight of 300 g was slaughtered by striking a blow at the occipital region, and the portal vein was extirpated therefrom. The extirpated vein was cut longitudinally to prepare strip section samples about 1 cm in length. The portal vein samples to which a load of 0.5 g was applied were suspended in Locke solution aerated with a mixed gas (95% O.sub.2 and 5% CO.sub.2) in a Magnus bath at 37.degree. C., and changes in contraction tension were recorded on a thermal stylus recorder through a transducer.
The portal vein samples were thus allowed to conduct a rhythmic movement for about 30 minutes. When the rhythm was stabilized, the drug was accumulatively added. To the samples in which the automatic rhythm of the portal vein disappeared by addition of the drug, glibenclamide as a potassium channel blocker, was added at a concentration of 10.sup.-6 to 10.sup.-5 M, or 3,4-diaminopyridine at a concentration of 10.sup.-4 to 10.sup.-3 M, whereby the recovery of the automatic rhythm was examined.
(2) Test results
Test results are shown in Table 3.
TABLE 3______________________________________Test Compound(Example No.) IC.sub.100 (.mu.M)______________________________________ 7 1024 1______________________________________
For the test compounds, the autonomous contraction of the rat portal vein was allowed to disappear at the IC.sub.100 concentrations shown in Table 3. The autonomous contraction was recovered by adding glibenclamide at 10.sup.-6 M or 3,4-diaminopyridine at 10.sup.-3 M.
While the invention has been described in detail and with reference to specific examples thereof, it will be apparent to one skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope thereof.
