Aralkyl and aralkenyl glycosides as inhibitors of antigen-specific T-cell proliferation

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Muchmore and Blaese (in Macrophage Regulation Immunity, ed. by E. R. Unanue and A. S. Rosenthal, Academic Press, 1980, pp. 505-517) have suggested that certain saccharides and their derivatives are effective in part in inhibiting autologous monocyte T-cell proliferation. These workers tested the effect of various simple mono-, di- and oligosaccharides for their ability to interfere with antigen specific proliferation and found that the inhibitory activity of these substances depended on a number of factors, including the specific structure of the added saccharide, the time of addition to the cell culture and other experimental variables. The principal objective of the invention is to design and prepare aralkyl and aralkenyl glycosides which have better selectivity and enhance inhibitory potency.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The invention herein relates to glycopyranosides selected from mannopyranosides, 6-deoxy mannopyranosides and other 6-substituted derivatives thereof having in the one position of the pyranose ring an aralkylthio, an aralkenylthio, an aralkyloxy, an aralkenyloxy, an aralkanoylamino or an aralkenoylamino substituent which may be represented in the case of the preferred compounds by the formulas: ##STR1## wherein the dotted line represents a carbon-carbon bond or an additional hydrogen attached to each of the carbons connected thereto;
R.sub.1 is H, OH, OCH.sub.3, .alpha.-D-mannopyranosyloxy, N.sub.3, NH.sub.2, NH-alkanoyl of 1-5 carbons, NH-oleiyl, or NH-lipoyl;
X is --S--, --O--, or ##STR2## R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are each hydrogen or lower alkyl of 1-4 carbon atoms;
R.sub.5 is H, Cl, F, OH, O-alkyl of 1-4 carbons, S-alkyl of 1-4 carbons and their sulfoxide and sulfone, NRR.sup.1 where R and R.sup.1 =H or R=H, R.sup.1 =alkyl of 1-4 carbons, or R=R.sup.1 =alkyl of 1-4 carbons; and
R.sub.6 is hydrogen or lower alkanoyl of from 1-4 carbon atoms
and with novel processes for their preparation.
These novel glycopyranosides having a thio, oxy or amido linkage to an aralkyl or aralkenyl substituent are useful in the treatment of allergic reactions because of their activity as inhibitors of antigen specific T-cell proliferation and their activity as inhibitors of delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions.
The novel substituted glycosides of formulas I and II hereinabove are prepared starting with a 2-S-tetra-O-acetylglycopyranosyl-2-thiopseudourea hydrobromide or an alkali metal glycopyranosyl mercaptide in the case of the 1-position derivatives linked through a thio substituent; a tetra-O-acetylglycopyranosyl bromide in the case of the 1-position derivative linked through an oxy substituent; or a tetra-O-acetyl glycopyranosylamine in the case of 1-position derivatives linked through an NHCO substituent (X=S, O or NHCO).
The aralkyl or aralkenyl thioglycopyranosides or 6-substituted pyranosides are ordinarily prepared by reacting the corresponding 2-S-tetra-O-acetylglycopyranosyl-2-thiopseudourea hydrobromide such as 2-S-tetra-O-acetyl-.alpha.-D-mannopyranosyl-2-thiopseudourea hydrobromide or the mannopyranose sodium salt with an aralkyl or an aralkenyl bromide such as cinnamyl bromide to form the corresponding aralkyl or alkenyl thiopyranosyl compounds as for example, cinnamyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-1-thio-.alpha.-D-mannopyranoside or cinnamyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-1-thio-.beta.-D-mannopyranoside. The reaction is conveniently carried out by bringing together an aqueous solution of the tetra-O acetylglycopyranosyl isothiourea. Hydrobromide and the aralkyl bromide in ethanol in the presence of potassium carbonate and potassium metabisulfite with agitation for a period of approximately 30 minutes at 25.degree. C. The product is extracted with chloroform and the chloroform extract evaporated to dryness to obtain the product which is further purified by crystallization of the residual material from a mixture of ether and petroleum ether.
In the case of the 1-thio-.beta.-D-mannopyranose sodium salt an aqueous ethanol mixture of the sodium salt with cinnamyl bromide is maintained at 25.degree. C. for about 20 minutes and the reaction mixture evaporated to dryness and the residue acetylated with acetic anhydride and pyridine. The acetylated mixture is quenched in water, the solid product is separated and recrystallized from methanol.
The tetra-O-acetyl-1-thiomannopyranosides are deacetylated, if desired, by treatment with sodium methoxide in methanol for about 3 hours at 25.degree. C. The reaction mixture is then deionized using an acidic ion exchange resin and filtered to remove the insoluble resin. The filtrate is then evaporated to dryness under reduced pressure and the residue further purified by column chromatography and/or crystallization from a lower alkanol such as isopropanol to give the desired aralkyl- or aralkenyl 1-thio-glycopyranoside including cinnamyl 1-thio-.alpha.-D-mannopyranoside, cinnamyl 1-thio-.beta.-D-mannopyranoside, 3-phenylpropyl 1-thio-.alpha.-D-mannopyranoside, cinnamyl 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-1-thio-.alpha.-D-mannopyranoside, cinnamyl 6-O-methyl-1-thio-.alpha.-D-mannopyranoside (20), cinnamyl 6-deoxy-1-thio-.alpha.-D-mannopyranoside (22), cinnamyl 6-O-(.alpha.-D-mannopyranosyl-1-thio-.alpha.-D-mannopyranoside (24).
In the case of O-glycopyranosides the reaction is conveniently carried out by reacting the corresponding tetra-O-acetylglycopyranosyl bromide such as 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-.alpha.-D-mannopyranosyl bromide with aralkenyl- or aralkyl alcohol such as cinnamyl alcohol to form the corresponding aralkyl or aralkenyl tetra-O-acetylglycopyranoside such as cinnamyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-.alpha.-D-mannopyranoside which is deacetylated as previously described to produce the desired cinnamyl-.alpha.-D-mannopyranoside.
In the case of the 1-position derivatives of the glycopyranoside compounds linked through an amide linkage (NHCO), i.e., 1-aralkanoylamino and 1-alkenoylamino 1-deoxyglycopyranosides are readily prepared by reacting a tetra-O-acetylglycopyranosylamine such as 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-.beta.-D-mannopyranosylamine in the presence of a condensing agent such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide with an aralkanoic or an aralkenoic acid such as cinnamic acid. The reaction is carried out by bringing the reactants together in solution in an organic solvent such as methylene chloride in the presence of dimethylaminopyridine at a temperature of 0.25.degree. C. for about 1 hour with agitation. The crude reaction mixture which contains the desired product, is diluted and washed with dilute aqueous hydrochloric acid solution and aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and the washed methylene chloride solution of product is evaporated to a small volume and subjected to column chromatography on silica gel to give the desired product cinnamoyl 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl .beta.-D-mannopyranosylamine which is deacetylated in the manner described above to produce cinnamoyl-.beta.-D-mannopyranosylamine.
In addition to the direct production of the compounds of our invention as described hereinabove, the compounds are also converted by hydrogenation of the aralkenyl double bond and by derivatization of the 6-position of the glycopyranosides as further set forth in the examples which follow.

The compounds such as described herein possess inhibitory activity against delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions in mammals. In laboratory test animals the inhibitory response is measured by using animals injected with cyclophosphamide and sheep red blood cells. After the appropriate sensitization period a challenge is administered in the foot pad with sheep red-blood cells. This challenge causes swelling of the injected foot pad in untreated animals. Previous treatment of the animals with a compound of the present invention inhibits the delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction as shown by the fact that less swelling of the injected member takes place in the treated animal. Either oral administration or i.p. injection is effective in inhibiting the delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction in the challenged test animals.
The compounds made as described herein have inhibitory activity against allergic reactions such as the delayed type hypersensitivity reactions in the range of from 5-50 mg of drug/kilogram of body weight. The actual dosage administered is based on information determined by animal test results and in addition is in part determined by the patients age, body weight and the severity of the condition being treated which, of course, depends in part on the individual patient's physical idiosyncrasies. The compounds are administered in a non-toxic dosage concentration sufficient to control the allergic condition. With these considerations in mind, the daily dosage for a particular patient can be readily determined in accordance with conventional techniques in the medical arts. Treatment is by the oral or the i.p. injection route, the preferred route being oral administration of the compound in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
When the oral route of administration is used, the new compounds are compounded with a non-toxic excipient, which is edible or potable, and chemically inert to the compounds. The proportion of the excipient should be at least sufficient to separate the particles of the glycopyranoside compound from each other, and to cause quick solution or dispersion of the glycopyranoside composition when contacted with the gastric juice of the stomach. When the excipient is a solid, the amount thereof may be from about 0.3 to about 4 parts for 1 part of the active ingredient.
As solid excipients utilization may be made of lactose, sucrose, starch, pre-gelatinized starch, gum arabic, gum tragacanth and mixtures of these. Suitably, the solid excipient may contain also admixed magnesium stearate, talc, cornstarch, or two or more of these additives to promote separation of the composition from the plunger and mold used in shaping the composition into tablets for use orally.

It will be understood that the glycopyranoside derivative mentioned in the above formulation may be substituted by any of the other derivatives described and claimed herein on an equal weight basis. It is also to be considered that the glycopyranosides may be employed alone and in compatible admixtures when preparing various formulations.
In making the tablet the glycopyranoside is mixed with the sucrose and gum acacia, and then with the starch made previously into a paste with a small amount of distilled water. This mixture is dried at low heat and put through a granulator which converts it into a granular powder. This mix is then blended with the talc, magnesium stearate and the stearic acid which act as mold lubricants. The whole is now mixed in a pony mixer or other suitable powder mixing equipment, and then is ready for tableting on any type of tableting machine or for filling into hard gelatin capsules.
When the i.p. route of administration is used the intravenous preparation is simply prepared by dissolving the active compounds in distilled water in concentrations dependent upon the particular dosage unit desired.
The following examples illustrate methods of carrying out the present invention, but it is to be understood that these examples are given for purposes of illustration and not of limitation.
