SUMMARY AND DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
In its broadest aspect, the present invention is concerned with piperazinyl derivatives having neuroleptic (antipsychotic) properties characterized by a compound of Formula (I) ##STR10## wherein R represents the radical ##STR11## in which n is 3 or 4, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are independently lower alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, Y is oxygen or sulfur, Z is hydrogen or halogen, or a pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic acid addition salt thereof.
It is to be understood that, as used herein, halogen denotes fluorine, iodine and preferably chlorine and bromine with the term "lower alkyl" referring to both straight and branched chain carbon radicals of from 1 to 4 carbon atoms inclusive. Illustrative of these radicals are carbon chains which can be methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, 1-butyl, 1-methylpropyl and 2-methylpropyl.
The pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of the invention are those in which the anion does not contribute significantly to the toxicity or pharmacological activity of the salt and, as such, they are the pharmacological equivalents of the bases of Formula I. They are generally preferred for medical usage. In some instances, they have physical properties which makes them more desirable for pharmaceutical formulation such as solubility, lack of hygroscopicity, compressibility with respect to tablet formation and compatibility with other ingredients with which the substance may be used for pharmaceutical purposes. The salts are routinely made by admixture of a Formula I base with the selected acid preferably by contact in solution employing an excess of commonly used inert solvents such as water, ether, benzene, ethanol, ethyl acetate and preferably acetonitrile. They may also be made by metathesis or treatment with an ion exchange resin under conditions in which the anion of one salt of the substance of the Formula I is replaced by another anion under conditions which allow for separation of the desired species such as by precipitation from solution or extraction into a solvent, or elution from or retention on an ion exchange resin. Pharmaceutically acceptable acids for the purposes of salt formation of the substances of Formula I include sulfuric, phosphoric, hydrochloric, hydrobromic, hydroiodic, citric, acetic, benzoic, cinnamic, mandelic, phosphoric, nitric, mucic, isethionic, palmitic, heptanoic, and others.
The compounds of Formula I wherein R is radical "a, b, c and d" of the instant invention are obtained by procedures involving alkylation of piperazinyl or "imide" intermediates analogous to methods described by Wu, et al., patents supra., incorporated herein in entirety by reference. Such methods are illustrated below for preparation of a preferred Formula I compound (R=a, n=4, Y=S, Z=H), 8-[4-[4-(1,2-benzisothiazol-3-yl)-1-piperazinyl]butyl]-8-azaspiro[4.5]decane-7,9-dione (Ia.sub.1): ##STR12##
In the foregoing reaction schemes, "M" denotes an alkali metal salt and the specific halogen recited is given only by way of example with other members of the halogen class (e.g., chlorine, bromine, iodine) operable as well as suitable displacement groups such as sulfate, phosphate, tosylate, mesylate and the like.
Method A is further generically described as a process for preparing a compound of Formula I wherein R is the radical "a, b, c or d" as previously defined therefor which comprises reacting an imidoyl compound of Formula II
Imid-A (II)
wherein "A" is --(CH.sub.2).sub.n --X in which "n" is 3 or 4 and "X" is the acid residue of a reactive ester grouping such as chloride, bromide, iodide, fluoride, sulfate, phosphate, tosylate or mesylate, and "Imid" represents ##STR13## in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are independently lower alkyl with a compound of Formula III ##STR14## wherein "Y" is oxygen or sulfur and "Z" is hydrogen or halogen; in a reaction inert solvent.
Method B is further generically described as a process for preparing a compound of Formula I wherein R is the radical "a, b, c or d" as previously defined which comprises reacting an imidoyl compound of Formula IV
Imid-M (IV)
wherein "M" is an alkali metal salt such as sodium, potassium or lithium and "Imid" represents ##STR15## in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are independently lower alkyl with a compound of Formula V or V' ##STR16## wherein "X" is the acid residue of a reactive ester grouping such as chloride, bromide, iodide, fluoride, sulfate, phosphate, tosylate, or mesylate, and in Formula V' is preferably bromine, chlorine or iodine, "n" is 3 or 4, "Y" is oxygen or sulfur, and "Z" is hydrogen or halogen in a reaction inert solvent.
Method C is further generically described as a process for preparing a compound of Formula I wherein R is the radical "a, b, c and d" as previously defined which comprises reacting a compound of Formula VI ##STR17## wherein "Imid" represents ##STR18## in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are independently lower alkyl, "n" is 3 or 4 with a compound of Formula VII ##STR19## wherein "halo" is halogen, preferably chlorine or bromine, and "Y" is oxygen or sulfur and "Z" is hydrogen or halogen; in a reaction inert solvent.
Method D is further generically described as a process for preparing a compound of Formula I wherein R is the radical "a, b, c or d" as previously defined which comprises reacting an anhydride of Formula VIII(a, b, c, or d) ##STR20## in which R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are independently lower alkyl with a compound of Formula IX ##STR21## wherein "n" is 3 or 4, "Y" is oxygen or sulfur and "Z" is hydrogen or halogen; in a reaction inert solvent.
The foregoing generic embodiments of Methods A, B and C constitute a unitary process for preparing compounds of Formula I wherein R is the radical "a, b, c or d" as previously described which comprises alkylating a compound of Formula III, IV or VI with an appropriate alkylating intermediate of Formula II, V, V' or VII in a reaction inert solvent.
Methods A and C are conventionally carried out under reaction conditions employed in preparing tertiary amines by alkylating secondary amines. Thus, the compounds of Formula I wherein R is radical "a, b, c and d" are obtained by reacting appropriate intermediates in an inert reaction medium at temperatures of from about 50.degree. to about 200.degree. C. in the presence of a base suitable for use as an acid binding agent. Operable inorganic and organic acid binding bases include tertiary amines, alkali and alkaline earth metal carbonates, bicarbonates, or hydrides with sodium carbonate and potassium carbonate particularly preferred. As referred to throughout the specification, the term "inert reaction medium" refers to any protic or aprotic solvent or diluent which does not enter into the reaction to any substantial degree. In this regard, acetonitrile is a particularly preferred solvent with the reaction conveniently carried out at reflux temperature. Satisfactory yields of the present compounds are obtained with reaction periods ranging from about 2-24 hours. Formula (I) products may be purified by crystallization techniques from standard solvent media such as acetonitrile, isopropanol, methanol, ethanol and the like and by other conventional methods such as chromatography employing a silica gel column with mixtures of chloroform and alkanols such as methanol and ethanol as eluant.
Method B illustrates a modification of the unitary process of the instant invention for preparation of Formula I wherein R is radical "a, b, c and d" compounds in which an alkali metal salt of an imide intermediate of Formula IV is alkylated. Standard laboratory procedures are employed in carrying out this reaction such as those described for the alkylation step of the Gabriel synthesis--S. Gabriel, Ber. 20, 2224 (1887). In the present case, for instance, the reactants are combined in an inert reaction medium at temperatures ranging from 50.degree. C. to 200.degree. C. Toluene and xylene are particularly preferred solvents for carrying out the reaction but other solvents which do not adversely affect the reaction or reactants can be employed. In this regard, solvents such as dioxane, benzene, dimethylformamide, acetone, acetonitrile, n-butanol and the like are operable. In general, the alkali metal salts (IV) are prepared by treating the corresponding imide precursor with an alkali hydride such as sodium hydride, an alkali alcoholate such as sodium ethoxide, an alkali amide such as sodium amide, an alkali base such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, an alkali carbonate such as sodium carbonate or potassium carbonate in a suitable solvent. It is not necessary to pre-form the Formula IV alkali metal salts and the imide precursor and piperazinyl alkylating agent (V or V') can be conveniently combined in an inert reaction medium in the presence of a base, preferably sodium or potassium carbonate.
Compounds of Formula I wherein R is the radical "e or f" are obtained by a process involving alkylation of a piperazinyl intermediate of Formula III ##STR22## wherein "Y" is oxygen or sulfur and "Z" is hydrogen or halogen with a compound of Formula X ##STR23## wherein "X" is as defined above and most preferably chlorine or bromine in a reaction inert solvent to provide the compounds of Formula Ie ##STR24## and thereafter reducing (Ie) to afford the corresponding compounds of Formula If ##STR25##
Piperazinyl benzisothiazole and benzisoxazole intermediates of Formula (III) are obtained by reaction of 3-chloro-6-Z-1,2-benzisothiazole or 3-chloro-6-Z-1,2-benzisoxazole with excess piperazine at elevated temperature. For example, 3-chloro-1,2-benzisothiazole starting material is prepared by treating 1,2-benzisothiazol-3(2H)one with phosphorous pentachloride at 100.degree.-140.degree. C. for 4 hours. A similar conversion of 1,2-benzisoxazol-3-one to 3-chloro-1,2-benzisoxazole is carried out with phosphorus oxychloride/triethylamine according to the procedure of H. Boshagen, Ber. 100, 3326 (1967).
The compounds of the instant invention are useful pharmacological agents with psychotropic properties. In this regard, they exhibit selective central nervous system activity at non-toxic doses and are of particular interest as neuroleptic (antipsychotic) agents. As with other known antipsychotics, the compounds of Formula (I) evoke certain responses in standard in vivo and in vitro pharmacological test systems which are known to correlate well with relief of anxiety and symptoms of acute and chronic psychosis in man. The following are illustrative of such conventional in vivo test systems used to classify and differentiate a psychotropic agent from a nonspecific CNS depressant and determine potential side-effect liabilities (e.g., cataleptic activity). Regarding the latter, antipsychotic agents as a class are known to produce sedation and extrapyramidyl reactions such as acute torsion dystonia, akathiasia, parkinsonism, tardive dyskinesia and autonomic nervous system effects.

As further indication of the psychotropic activity and specificity of the instant compounds, state of the art in vitro central nervous system receptor binding methodology can be employed. Certain compounds (commonly referred to as ligands) have been identified which preferentially bind to specific high affinity sites in brain tissue dealing with psychotropic activity or potential for side effects. Inhibition of radiolabeled ligand binding to such specific high affinity sites is considered a measure of a compound's ability to affect corresponding central nervous system function or cause side effects in vivo. This principal is employed in the following assays which are given by way of example.

According to the pharmacological profile established by the aforementioned tests, the instant compounds of Formula (I) have promising antipsychotic potential in that they are relatively potent in the CAR test having oral ED.sub.50 values <100 mg/kg body weight and IC.sub.50 's of <1000 nanomolar in the .sup.3 H spiperone dopamine receptor binding assay. Activity in the CAR test and spiperone assay is considered predictive of antipsychotic potential in man. Regarding selective antipsychotic activity, preferred compounds of the invention have significant dopamine receptor binding activity and suppress rat CAR below cataleptic doses.
A particularly preferred compound in this regard is 8-[4-[4-(1,2-benzoisothiazol-3-yl)-1-piperazinyl]butyl]-8-azaspiro-[4.5]decane-7,9-dione which exhibits relatively weak cataleptogenic activity in the rat at approximately 8 times the CAR dose suggesting minimal potential for extrapyramidal side effects.
As previously mentioned, the instant compounds have psychotropic properties particularly suited to their use as a neuroleptic (antipsychotic) agent. Thus, another aspect of the instant invention concerns a process for ameliorating a psychotic state in a mammal in need of such treatment which comprises systemic administration to said mammal an effective dose of from about 0.01 to 40 mg/kg body weight of a Formula (I) compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof.
The term systemic administration as used herein refers to oral, rectal, and parenteral (i.e., intramuscular, intravenous, and subcutaneous) routes. Generally, it will be found that when a compound of the present invention is administered orally which is the preferred route, a larger quantity of the active agent is required to produce the same effect as a smaller quantity given parenterally. In accordance with good clinical practice, it is preferred to administer the instant compounds at a concentration level that will produce effective neuroleptic (antipsychotic) effects without causing any harmful or untoward side effects.
Therapeutically, the instant compounds are generally given as pharmaceutical compositions comprised of an effective antipsychotic amount of a compound of Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. Pharmaceutical compositions which provide from about 1 to 500 mg. of the active ingredient per unit dose are preferred and are conventionally prepared as tablets, lozenges, capsules, powders, aqueous or oily suspensions, syrups, elixirs and aqueous solutions.
Preferred oral compositions are in the form of tablets or capsules and may contain conventional excipients such as binding agents (e.g. syrup, acacia, gelatin, sorbitol, tragacanth, or polyvinylpyrrolidone), fillers (e.g. lactose, sugar, maize-starch, calcium phosphate, sorbitol or glycine), lubricants (e.g. magnesium stearate, talc, polyethyleneglycol or silica), disintegrants (e.g. starch) and wetting agents (e.g. sodium lauryl sulfate). Solutions or suspensions of a Formula I compound with conventional pharmaceutical vehicles are employed for parenteral compositions such as an aqueous solution for intravenous injection or an oily suspension for intramuscular injection. Such compositions having the desired clarity, stability and adaptability for parenteral use are obtained by dissolving from 0.1% to 10% by weight of the active compound in water or a vehicle consisting of a polyhydric aliphatic alcohol such as glycerine, propylene glycol, and polyethyleneglycols or mixtures thereof. The polyethyleneglycols consist of a mixture of non-volatile, normally liquid, polyethyleneglycols which are soluble in both water and organic liquids and which have molecular weights of from about 200 to 1500.

The following non-limiting examples serve to illustrate preparation of specific compounds of the instant inventions.
