Anti-ulcer urea derivatives

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to novel urea derivatives and their medically acceptable acid addition salts having a strong gastric antisecretory activity together with a strong gastric cytoprotective activity. Thus, the compounds of this invention are useful for the treatment of peptic ulcer. This invention also relates to processes for the manufacture thereof.
It has been well-known that gastric acid secretion caused by histamine is mediated by histamine H.sub.2 -receptor, and the blockade of this receptor by its antagonist reduces the gastric acid secretion in animals and humans (Brimblecombe, R.W., et al., J. Int. Med. Res., 3, 86-92, 1975). Several drugs of this type, such as cimetidine, are commercially available.
It has also been said that a compound which prevents or cures the gastric lesions induced by a necrotizing agent such as hydrochloric acid or absolute ethanol has gastric cytoprotective activity (Robert, A., et al., Gastroenterology, 77, 433-443. 1979). Gastric cytoprotective effect is achieved independently of the inhibitory action on gastric acid secretion. In fact, histamine H.sub.2 -receptor antagonists hitherto known cannot suppress the formation of gastrtic lesions induced by absolute ethanol or 0.6N HCl.
As the similar type of the compounds of the present invention, the compounds discovered by Allen & Hanburys Limited have been known (Brit. Pat. Publication No. 1,604,674 and 1,604,675). The urea derivatives mentioned in these publications, however, have only dimethylaminomethylphenoxy group, and no mention is made of piperidinomethylphenoxy group. Furthermore, these publications mentioned only histamine H.sub.2 -receptor antagonistic activity, but no description is made of gastric cytoprotective activity.
A number of histamine H.sub.2 -receptor antagonists has been developed and they bring high ulcer-healing rate in clinical therapy. However, it has come to be drawn as a serious problem that the recurrence and relapse of peptic ulcer frequently occur within weeks or a few months after withdrawal of administration of histamine H.sub.2 -receptor antagonist hitherto known. Recently, to improve this problem, a concomitant use of histamine H.sub.2 -receptor antagonist with gastric cytoprotective agent has come to be tried in practice.
In addition, it has been well-known that antiulcer drugs having gastric cytoprotective activity are more effective for gastric ulcers than for duodenal ulcers, while histamine H.sub.2 -receptor antagonists are more effective for duodenal ulcers than for gastric ulcers.
Therefore, it is expected that a new type of histamine H.sub.2 -receptor antagonist having not only strong gastric antisecretory activity but also gastric cytoprotective activity can reduce the recurrence and relapse of peptic ulcer, and also improve the healing rate and healing process of peptic ulcer.
To improve the weak points of the known histamine H.sub.2 -receptor antagonists, namely, to prevent the recurrence and relapse of peptic ulcer, we have continuously studied for development of the new type of histamine H.sub.2 -receptor antagonists. Consequently, we - have succeeded in the development of histamine H.sub.2 -receptor antagonists having a strong gastric antisecretory activity together with a strong gastric cytoprotective activity.
The compounds of the present invention are novel urea derivatives represented by the following formula (I). ##STR2## wherein R.sub.1 indicates a piperidino group or pyrrolidino group which may be substituted with hydroxy group or lower alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms; A indicates an ethylene group, propylene group, butylene group or butenylene group; R.sub.2 indicates a straight or branched alkyl group having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl group having 3 to 6 carbon atoms, benzyl group, or phenyl group which may have 1 to 3 substituents such as lower alkyl group having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, lower alkoxy group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, halogen atom, trifluoromethyl group, amino group, nitro group or methylenedioxy group; X indicates an oxygen or sulfur atom, the hydrates and pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof.

EXAMPLE 61
N-(3-Aminophenyl)-N'-[3-(3-piperidinomethylphenoxy)propyl]urea
To the mixture of N-(3-nitrophenyl)-N'-[3-(3-piperidinomethylphenoxy)propyl]urea (4.6 g) in ethanol (46 ml) was added tin (2.6 g). To the reaction mixture was added concentrated hydrochloric acid (1.9 ml) at room temperature under stirring, further added concentrated hydrochloric acid (18.2 ml) under heating on a water bath. The reaction mixture was refluxed for 6 hours, concentrated under reduced pressure, diluted with water (100 ml), alkalized with aqueous sodium hydroxide solution and extracted with dichloromethane (200 ml). The organic layer was washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure to give the crude precipitate (3.8 g; yield 88.4 %). This precipitate was recrystallized two times from ethanol to give the title compound (1.8 g), mp 116.degree.-118 .degree. C. Analysis (%) for C.sub.22 H.sub.30 N.sub.4 O.sub.2, Calcd.

EXAMPLE 62
N-Methyl-N'-[3-(3-piperidinomethylphenoxy)propyl]urea
To DMF (10 ml) was added sodium hydride (0.7 g; 60 % in oil) portionwise under cooling, further added the mixture of 3-piperidinophenol (3.3 g) in DMF (7 ml) dropwise and stirred at room temperature for an hour. To the reaction mixture was added N-(3-chloropropyl)-N'-methylurea (2.6 g) at room temperature and stirred for 3 hours at the same temperature. The reaction mixture was poured into water and extracted with dichloromethane. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was suspended in petroleum ether and collected by filtration to give the crude precipitate (2.8 g, yield 52.8 %). This precipitate was recrystallized from ethyl acetate to give the title compound (0.5 g).
Thus obtained compound was identified with the compound described in example 21 by comparison of analytical data.

N-Ethyl-N'-[3-(3-piperidinomethylphenoxy)propyl]urea
To DMF (5 ml) was added sodium hydride (0.5 g; 60 % in oil) portionwise under cooling, further added the mixture of 3-piperidinophenol (2.3 g) in DMF (7 ml) dropwise and stirred at room temperature for an hour. To the reaction mixture was added N-(3-chloropropyl)-N'-methylurea (2.0 g) at room temperature, stirred for 3 hours at the same temperature and allowed to stand for overnight. The reaction mixture was poured into ice-water and extracted with dichloromethane. The organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was crystallized from petroleum ether, collected by filtration to give the title compound (0.6 g). The filtrate was concentrated and purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluting with acetone) to give the further title compound (0.8 g).
Thus obtained compound was identified with the compound described in example 16 by comparison of analytical data.
The compounds of this invention are histamine H.sub.2 -receptor antagonists with both strong gastric antisecretory and gastric cytoprotection as shown by following experiments.
EXPERIMENT 1
Gastric antisecretion
Male Donryu rats, weighing about 200 g, were fasted for 24 hours before the experiment. Under urethane anesthesia (1.25 g/kg,i.p.), the abdomen was incised and the pylorus was ligated. The gastric cannula was implanted in the forestomach (Acute fistula method). Gastric secretion from cannula was collected into test tubes every one hour and the acid output was titrated. Histamine (10 mg/kg) was intramuscularly given after the first collection of gastric juice. Drugs were intraduodenally given after the second collection of the gastric juice. The results are shown in Table 4.

EXPERIMENT 2
Histamine H.sub.2 -receptor antagonism
Male Hartley guinea-pigs, weighing between 300 and 400 g, were used in the experiment. The right atrium was dissected and suspended at 0.5 g tension in a 10 ml organ bath containing Krebs-Henseleit's solution, kept at 32.+-.1.degree. C. and bubbled with the gas mixture (95 % O.sub.2 and 5 % CO.sub.2). Contractions were recorded with a force-displacement transducer through a strain gange. Cumulative concentration-response curves for the positive chronotropic effect of histamine on atrium were displaced to the right in parallel by drugs, and the effects of test drugs were calculated as the pA.sub.2 values. Drugs were added into the organ bath 5 minutes before histamine treatment. The results are shown in Table 5.

EXPERIMENT 3
Gastric cytoprotection (0.6 N HCl-induced gastric lesions)
Male Donryu rats, weighing about 200 g, were deprived of food and water for 24 hours. One ml of 0.6N HCl solution was given orally and the animals were killed an hour later. The stomach of each animal was removed and fixed 0.5 % neutral formalin solution according to the method of Brodie and Hanson (Gastroenterology 38, 353-360, 1960). The length (mm) of each gastric lesion was measured under a dissecting microscope, summed, and used as an index for evaluation. Drugs were orally given an hour before 0.6 N HCl solution treatment. The results are shown in Table 6.

These data suggest that the compounds of this invention are histamine H.sub.2 -receptor antagonists with both strong gastric antisecretion and gastric cytoprotection. Furthermore, their gastric antisecretion were more potent than that of cimetidine. That is, the compounds of this invention may process more potent antiulcer activity for the treatment of peptic ulcer in clinical therapy.
