Inhibition of the lowering of blood pressure caused by NK.sub.1 in anaesthetised guinea pigs.
Guinea pigs weighing 300-500 grams were anaesthetised with pentobarbital (50 mg/kg i.p.), intubated and mechanically ventilated with 10 ml of ambient air per kg of body weight at a rate of 60 breaths per minute. The blood pressure was measured in the blood flow through the carotid artery. In order to introduce substances intravenously, the jugular vein was cannulated.
By the intravenous administration of the NK.sub.1 -agonist [.beta.Ala.sup.4, Sar.sup.9, Met(O.sub.2).sup.11 ] SP(4-11) (0.2 .mu.mol/kg) a brief lowering of the blood pressure was triggered which was repeated at 10 minute intervals by repeatedly giving the NK.sub.1 -agonist. ##STR20##
The neurokinin-antagonist was then administered by intraduodenal route and at 10 minute intervals a lowering of blood pressure was induced by means of the NK.sub.1 -agonist.





EXAMPLES
The inhibition of the lowering of blood pressure caused by the above-mentioned NK.sub.1 -agonist was measured before and after treatment with the neurokinin-antagonist.
The compound of Example 5 yielded an ID.sub.50 of 1.4 mg/kg. (ID.sub.50 is the dose which inhibits the lowering of blood pressure caused by the NK.sub.1 -agonist by 50%.)
The compounds according to the invention may be prepared by generally known methods.
The compounds may be prepared in various ways. The two commonest methods are shown in the following scheme: ##STR21##
Method A. The carboxylic acid may be linked to the amine HN(R.sup.5)R.sup.4 in various ways. The usual methods are coupling methods such as those used in peptide chemistry. A coupling reagent such as TBTU, DCCI/HOBt, CDI, etc., is added to the coupling partners in an approximately equivalent amount. Suitable solvents are DMF, THF, CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2, CHCl.sub.3, acetonitrile or other inert solvents or mixtures thereof. The appropriate temperature range is between -50.degree. C. and +120.degree. C., preferably between 0.degree. C. and 40.degree. C.
The carboxylic acid may also initially be converted by means of SOCl.sub.2, SO.sub.2 Cl.sub.2, PCl.sub.3, PCl.sub.5 or PBr.sub.3 or mixtures thereof, by known methods, into the corresponding acid halide which is subsequently reacted with the amine HN(R.sup.5)R.sup.4 in an inert solvent such as CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2, THF or dioxane at temperatures between -50.degree. C. and +100.degree. C., typically between 0.degree. C. and 20.degree. C.
Another alternative is to convert the carboxylic acid initially into the alkylester, usually the methylester, by known methods and then to react this ester with the amine HN(R.sup.5)R.sup.4 in an inert solvent such as DMF, dioxane or THF. The reaction temperatures are between 20.degree. C. and 150.degree. C., typically between 50.degree. C. and 120.degree. C. The reaction may also be carried out in a pressurised container.
Process B. In this, the .alpha.-halo-arylacetamide derivative obtained according to known procedures is reacted with the amine R.sup.1 (R.sup.2)NH, thereby generating hydrogen halide. In order to mop up the cleaved (or excess) hydrogen halide, inorganic bases are used such as K.sub.2 CO.sub.3, NaHCO.sub.3 or CaCO.sub.3, or organic bases may be used such as triethylamine, Hunig base, pyridine or DMAP, or an excess of the amine R.sup.1 (R.sup.2)NH may be used. DMF, THF, dioxane or other inert solvents are used. The temperature range for the reaction is from 0 to 100.degree. C., typically from 10 to 80.degree. C.
Process C. The compounds according to the invention in which R.sup.5 is not H may also be prepared as follows: first of all, the corresponding compound in which R.sup.5 is H is synthesised according to process A or B. Then N-alkylation is carried out as follows in order to introduce alkyl, cycloalkyl or CH.sub.2 COOH. The compound according to the invention wherein R.sup.5 is H is deprotonated with an equivalent quantity of NaH, NaNH.sub.2, KOH, NaOCH.sub.3 or some other strong base. Anhydrous inert solvents such as THF, dioxane or diethylether are used. Then the corresponding alkylating agent is added slowly in the form of the corresponding halide, tosylate or mesylate. The reaction is carried out in the temperature range from -50.degree. C. to +100.degree. C., typically between 0.degree. C. and +50.degree. C. The method is described in detail in Example 33.

C. 2.7 g of methyl (R,S)-.alpha.-bromophenylacetic acid were added and the suspension was stirred overnight at RT. The precipitate was filtered off and the filtrate was evaporated down. The residue was taken up in ethyl acetate, extracted twice with 10% KHCO.sub.3 solution and once with saturated NaCl solution. The organic phase was dried over Na.sub.2 SO.sub.4, filtered and evaporated down, and 3.7 g of (R,S)-1-cyclohexyl-4-(methyl 2-phenylacetate)-piperazine were obtained in the form of a yellow oil.

The filtrate was evaporated down and the residue was triturated again with isopropanol, the solid matter was suction filtered and combined with the solid obtained earlier. In this way, 1.6 g of (R,S)-1-cyclohexyl-4-(2-phenylacetic acid)-piperazine were obtained as a white solid.

3rd Step: 0.6 g of the product of the second step, 0.48 g of 3,5-bis-(trifluoromethyl)-benzylamine and 0.32 g of HOBT were suspended in 60 ml of THF/CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 (1:1) and adjusted to pH 8.5 by the addition of about 0.7 ml of Hunig base. 0.77 g of TBTU were added and the mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. The clear reaction solution was evaporated down in vacuo, the residue was taken up in CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 and extracted twice with 10% KHSO.sub.4 solution, once with saturated NaCl solution, twice with 10% KHCO.sub.3 solution and once more with saturated NaCl solution. The organic phase was dried over Na.sub.2 SO.sub.4, filtered and evaporated down, whereupon crystallisation took place. 0.685 g of (R,S)-1-cyclohexyl-piperazinyl-4-[2-phenylacetic acid-N-(3,5-bis-trifluoromethylbenzyl)amide] were obtained as a yellowish solid.

After the mixture had stood at room temperature over a weekend, the solvent was eliminated and the solid residue was triturated with diethylether, suction filtered and the filtrate was evaporated down. 0.6 g of .alpha.-bromophenylacetic acid N-(bis-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-amide were obtained as a light beige solid.

Over 20 minutes a solution of 0.68 g of the product of the first step in 10 ml of DMF were added dropwise to this mixture, which was then stirred overnight at room temperature. The suspension was filtered, the filtrate was evaporated down, the oily residue obtained was taken up in ethyl acetate, extracted twice with 10% KHCO.sub.3 solution and once with saturated NaCl solution. The organic phase was dried over Na.sub.2 SO.sub.4, filtered, the filtrate was evaporated down and the semi-solid residue obtained was triturated with diethylether and suction filtered. 0.33 g of (R,S)-4-propionylamino-1-[2-phenylacetic acid-N(3,5-bis-trifluoromethyl-benzyl)-amide]-piperidine were obtained as a white solid.

0.3 g of the compound according to Example 25 were converted into the corresponding base by treatment with KHCO.sub.3 and dried. The resulting product was dissolved in 5 ml of anhydrous THF, 34 mg of NaH (60% in oil) were added and the mixture was stirred for 1.5 hours at room temperature. Then 0.1 g of methyliodide were added and the mixture was stirred overnight. The reaction mixture was mixed with 2 ml of THF/water (1:1) then with 25 ml of water and extracted 3 times with ether. The combined ether extracts were dried over Na.sub.2 SO.sub.4 and evaporated down in vacuo, thereby obtained 170 mg of the desired compound in the form of a free base (oil). This was converted into the dihydrochloride by the addition of an excess of ethereal HCl, the dihydrochloride being obtained in the form of yellow crystals.
Yield: 113 mg (36%).
