and the physiologically acceptable salts thereof.




1-Benzoyltetrahydropyridazines have been described as progesterone receptor ligands, for example in J. Med. Chem. 38, 4878 (1995).




The invention was based on the object of finding novel compounds which have valuable properties, in particular those which can be used for the preparation of pharmaceuticals.




It has been found that the compounds of the formula I and salts thereof have highly valuable pharmacological properties and are well tolerated.




In particular, they inhibit selectively phosphodiesterase IV, which causes an increase of the intracellular cAMP level (N. Sommer et al., Nature Medicine, 1, 244-248 (1995)).




The PDE IV inhibition can be determined analogously to e.g. C. W. Davis in Biochim. biophys. Acta 797, 354-362 (1984).




The compounds of the formula I can be employed for the treatment of asthmatic diseases. The antiasthmatic activity of PDE IV inhibitors is known from T. J. Torphy et al. in Thorax, 46, 512-523 (1991) and can be determined, for example, by the method of T. Olsson, Acta allergologica 26, 438-447 (1971).




As cAMP inhibits bone decreasing cells and stimulates bone increasing cells (S. Kasugai et al., M681 and K. Miyamoto, M 682, in Abstract of the American Society for Bone and Mineral Research 18


th


annual meeting 1996), the compounds of formula I can be employed for the treatment of osteoporosis.




Moreover, the compounds have an inhibitory effect on the formation of TNF (tumor necrosis factor) and are therefore suitable for the treatment of allergies and inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases and transplant rejection reactions. They can furthermore be used for the treatment of dysmnesia, tumors, atherosclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, Morbus Crohn, atopic dermatitis, diabetes mellitus, ulcerative colitis and AIDS.




PDE IV inhibitors are potent compounds for the treatment of asthmatic and inflammatory diseases, diabetes mellitus, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, AIDS, tumor growth or tumor metastasis (see e.g. EP 77 92 91).




The antiinflammatory effect of the compounds of the formula I and their potency for the treatment of e.g. autoimmune diseases, multiple sclerosis or rheumatoid arthritis can be determined analogously to the methods of N. Sommer et al., Nature Medicine, 1, 244-248 (1995) or L. Sekut et al., Clin. Exp. Immunol., 100, 126-132 (1995).




PDE IV inhibitors are effective in the treatment of tumors (see e.g. WO 95 35 281, WO 95 17 399 or WO 96 00 215).




The compounds of the formula I can be employed as pharmaceutically active ingredients in human and veterinary medicine. Furthermore, they can be employed as intermediates for the preparation of other pharmaceutically active ingredients.




Accordingly, the invention relates to the compounds of the formula I and to a process for the preparation of compounds of the formula I according to Claim


1


and salts thereof, characterized in that a compound of the formula II

Besides, the compounds of the formula I and also the starting materials for their preparation are prepared by methods known per se as they are described in the literature (for example in the standard publications such as Houben-Weyl, Methoden der organischen Chemie [Methods in organic chemistry], Georg-Thieme-Verlag, Stuttgart), under reaction conditions which are known and suitable for the abovementioned reactions. It is also possible to utilize variants which are known per se but are not mentioned in greater detail in the present text.




In the compounds of the formulae II and IV, R

, R

, R

, R

and Q have the abovementioned meanings, in particular the abovementioned preferred meanings.




In the compounds of the formulae III and IV, Q is by preference methylene or ethylene, furthermore preferably propylene or butylene.




B in the compounds of the formulae III and V has the abovementioned preferred meanings, while L is Cl, Br, OH or a reactive esterified OH group.




If L is a reactive esterified OH group, it is by preference alkylsulfonyloxy having 1-6 C atoms (preferably methylsulfonyloxy) or arylsulfonyloxy having 6-10 C atoms (preferably phenyl- or p-tolylsulfonyloxy, furthermore also 2-naphthalenesulfonyloxy).




If desired, the starting materials can also be formed in situ, so that they are not isolated from the reaction mixture but immediately reacted further to give the compounds of the formula I. On the other hand, it is possible to carry out the reaction stepwise.




By preference, the compounds of the formula I can be obtained by reacting compounds of the formula II with compounds of the formula III.




Some of the starting materials of the formulae II and III are known. If they are not known, they can be prepared by methods known per se.




In detail, the reaction of the compounds of the formula II with the compounds of the formula III is carried out in the presence or absence of an inert solvent at temperatures between approximately −20 and approximately 150°, preferably between 20 and 100°.




Examples of suitable inert solvents are hydrocarbons such as hexane, petroleum ether, benzene, toluene or xylene; chlorinated hydrocarbons such as trichloroethylene, 1,2-dichloroethane, carbon tetrachloride, chloroform or dichloromethane; alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, n-propanol, n-butanol or tert-butanol; ethers such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tetrahydrofuran (THF) or dioxane; glycol ethers such as ethylene glycol monomethyl ether, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether (methyl glycol or ethyl glycol), ethylene glycol dimethyl ether (diglyme); ketones such as acetone or butanone; amides such as acetamide, dimethylacetamide or dimethylformamide (DMF); nitrites such as acetonitrile; sulfoxides such as dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO); carbon disulfide; carboxylic acids such as formic acid or acetic acid; nitro compounds such as nitromethane or nitrobenzene; esters such as ethyl acetate, or mixtures of the abovementioned solvents.




Moreover, compounds of the formula I can be obtained by reacting compounds of the formula IV with compounds of the formula V. As a rule, the starting compounds of the formulae IV and V are known. If they are not known, they can be prepared by methods known per se.




Thus, for example, the preparation of 1-benzoyltetrahydropyridazine is described in J. Med. Chem. 38, 4878 (1995).




In the compounds of the formula V, the radical —CO—L is a pre-activated carboxylic acid, preferably a carboxylic acid halide.




The compounds of the formula IV are reacted with compounds of the formula V under the same conditions regarding reaction time, temperature and solvent as has been described for the reaction of the compounds of the formula II with compounds of the formula III.




A base of the formula I can be converted into the corresponding acid addition salt with an acid, for example by reacting equivalent amounts of the base and the acid in an inert solvent such as ethanol, followed by evaporation. Acids which are suitable for this reaction are, in particular, those which give physiologically acceptable salts. Thus, inorganic acids can be used, for example sulfuric acid, nitric acid, hydrohalic acids such as hydrochloric acid or hydrobromic acid, phosphorus acids such as orthophosphoric acid, sulfamic acid, furthermore organic acids, in particular aliphatic, alicyclic, araliphatic, aromatic or heterocyclic mono- or polybasic carboxylic, sulfonic or sulfuric acids, for example formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, pivalic acid, diethylacetic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, pimelic acid, fumaric acid, maleic acid, lactic acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, citric acid, gluconic acid, ascorbic acid, nicotinic acid, isonicotinic acid, methane- or ethanesulfonic acid, ethanedisulfonic acid, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, naphthalenemono- and -disulfonic acids, laurylsulfonic acid. Salts with acids which are physiologically not acceptable, for example picrates, can be used for isolating and/or purifying the compounds of the formula I.




On the other hand, the free bases of the formula I can be liberated from their salts using bases (for example sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, potassium hydroxide or potassium carbonate), if so desired.




The invention furthermore relates to the use of the compounds of the formula I and/or of the physiologically acceptable salts thereof for the preparation of pharmaceutical products, in particular via the non-chemical route. They can be brought into a suitable pharmaceutical form together with at least one solid, liquid and/or semi-liquid excipient or auxiliary and, if appropriate, in combination with one or more further active ingredients.




The invention also relates to pharmaceuticals of the formula I and to the physiologically acceptable salts thereof as phosphodiesterase IV inhibitors.




The invention furthermore relates to pharmaceutical products comprising at least one compound of the formula I and/or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof.




These products can be used as pharmaceuticals in human or veterinary medicine. Suitable excipients are organic or inorganic substances which are suitable for enteral (for example oral), parenteral or topical administration and which do not react with the novel compounds, for example water, vegetable oils, benzyl alcohols, alkylene glycols, polyethylene glycols, glycerol triacetate, gelatin, carbohydrates such as lactose or starch, magnesium stearate, talc, petroleum jelly. Pharmaceutical forms which are used for oral administration are, in particular, tablets, pills, sugar-coated tablets, capsules, powders, granules, syrups, liquids or drops; pharmaceutical forms which can be used, in particular, for rectal administration are suppositories; pharmaceutical forms which can be used for parenteral administration are, in particular, solutions, preferably oily or aqueous solutions, furthermore suspensions, emulsions or implants, and pharmaceutical forms which can be used for topical administration are, in particular, ointments, creams or powders. The novel compounds can also be lyophilized and the resulting lyophilizates used for example for the preparation of injectable products. The abovementioned products can be sterilized and/or comprise auxiliaries such as glidants, preservatives, stabilizers and/or wetting agents, emulsifiers, salts for modifying the osmotic pressure, buffer substances, colours, flavourings and/or a plurality of other active ingredients, for example one or more vitamins.




The compounds of the formula I and their physiologically acceptable salts can be employed for combating diseases where a raised cAMP (cyclo-adenosine monophosphate) level leads to the inhibition or prevention of inflammations and to muscular relaxation. The compounds according to the invention can be used especially in the treatment of allergies, asthma, chronic bronchitis, atopic dermatitis, psoriasis and other skin diseases and autoimmune diseases.




In this connection, the substances according to the invention are generally preferably administered in doses of between approximately 1 and 500 mg, in particular of between 5 and 100 mg per dose unit. The daily dose is preferably between approximately 0.02 and 10 mg/kg of body weight. The specific dose for each patient, however, depends on all sorts of factors, for example on the efficacy of the specific compound employed, on the age, body weight, general state of health, sex, on the diet, on the time and route of administration, and on the excretion rate, pharmaceutical substance combination and severity of the particular disorder to which the therapy applies. Oral administration is preferred.




All temperatures hereinabove and hereinbelow are given in °C. In the examples which follow, “customary work-up” means: if required, water is added; if required, the pH is brought to between 2 and 10, depending on the constitution of the end product; the mixture is extracted with ethyl acetate or dichloromethane and separated; the organic phase is dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated; and the residue is purified by chromatography on silica gel and/or by crystallization.
