Description

The present invention relates to new benzopyran compounds.
Numerous benzopyran compounds are known, especially tocopherols which are vitamin E compounds possessing antioxidant properties in particular. Numerous tocopherol compounds have been prepared which result from modification of the side chain of alkanoic nature without increasing the antioxidant activity. Other benzopyran compounds such as (6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchroman-2-yl)carboxylic acid possess a good antioxidant activity, but solely for industrial use, having failed to gain therapeutic applications.
More recently, Patent Application WO 88/08424 described other chroman-2-carboxylic acid compounds and more generally (chroman-2-yl)alkylcarboxylic acid compounds possessing advantageous antioxidant properties.
The Applicant has now discovered new benzopyran compounds, and more particularly (benzopyran-2-yl)carboxylic acid or (chroman-2-yl)carboxylic acid compounds possessing an antioxidant activity which is substantially higher than that of the compounds of Application WO 88/08424 which constitute the most related prior art.

These compounds of formula (I) may also be converted, where appropriate, to their addition salts with a pharmaceutically acceptable base or acid.
Compared to the prior art compounds, these compounds of the present invention possess, surprisingly, very high antioxidant properties. Pharmacological studies have shown in particular that these compounds possess remarkable protective activity in relation to cellular lipid and low density lipoprotein (LDL) peroxidation processes.
These activities, are for some compounds of the invention, 100 times higher than that of the most related prior art compound, that is to say Example 102 of Application WO 88/08424.
Moreover, the compounds of the present invention possess the characteristic of having a potent inhibitory effect on the biosynthesis of eicosanoids, which compounds are derived from peroxidized compounds which are potential generators of free radicals, an inhibitory effect which the most related prior art compound does not possess.
Compounds of the invention may therefore be expected which possess both lipid peroxidation and eicosanoid biosynthesis inhibiting properties, an action which is particularly novel and beneficial in disorders involving not only membrane lipid peroxidation but a disorder of eicosanoid synthesis as well.
The compounds of the present invention may thus be used in the treatment or the prevention of disorders due to or linked to such phenomena of peroxidation and to such disturbance of the eicosanoid biosynthesis, and especially central or peripheral ischemic disorders, inflammatory diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, metabolic diseases, atheroma, arteriosclerosis, respiratory diseases, asthma, emphysema, diseases of immunological origin, lupus erythematosus, allergic reactions, certain cancers, cerebral or skin aging and in the prevention and treatment of damage due to surgical traumas such as organ reperfusion.
The subject of the present invention is also pharmaceutical compositions containing one of the compounds of formula I, or one of their addition salts with a pharmaceutically acceptable acid or base, alone or in combination with one or more inert, non-toxic excipients.
Among the pharmaceutical compositions according to the invention, there may be mentioned more particularly, by way of examples and with no limitation being implied, those which are suitable for oral, parenteral, nasal, rectal, perlingual, ocular or pulmonary administration, and especially preparations for injection, aerosols, eye or nasal drops, simple, coated or sugared tablets, gelatin capsules, capsules, creams, pomades and skin gels.
The required dosage varies according to the age and the weight of the patient, the route of administration, the nature of the disorder and the treatments which may be associated, and ranges between 0.5 mg and 2 grams per 24 hours.





The following examples illustrate the invention and do not imply any limitation.
The starting material is described in the literature or can easily be obtained by a person skilled in the art.
The infrared spectra are produced in potassium bromide pellets containing about 1% of the product to be analyzed.

PHARMACOLOGICAL STUDY OF THE COMPOUNDS OF THE INVENTION
(The compounds are compared with the most related prior art compound which is Example 102 of Application WO 88/ 08424)
EXAMPLE 195
Study of the Antiperoxidant Activity
The action of the compounds of the invention, which are capable of trapping -OH radicals was studied, on the one hand, on the spontaneous peroxidation of lipids and, on the other hand, on the peroxidation induced by the system Fe2+-ascorbate (10 .mu.M-250 .mu.M) , and this on rat brain homogenates.
During the measurement of spontaneous lipid peroxidation, the rat brain homogenates are placed in the presence or in the absence of the test compounds for 60 minutes at 37.degree. C. The reaction is stopped at 0.degree. C. and the assay of malondialdehyde is carried out using thiobarbituric acid, by the method of YAGI, K (1976) Biochem. Med, 15, 212-216. The lipid peroxidation is determined by the substances reacting with thiobarbituric acid, expressed as nanomoles of malonodialdehyde.
During the measurement of induced lipid peroxidation, the methodology is identical to the above except for the addition to the homogenate of the radical-inducing system: Fe2+- ascorbate. The reference substances are probucol and vitamin E.
The concentrations of the test compounds inhibiting peroxidation of the substrate by 50% are calculated.
It is evident that some compounds of the invention possess a particularly intense antiperoxidant activity since it is greater than that for the most related prior art compound by a factor of 100. This very useful result is produced whether the peroxidation is spontaneous or induced by a chemical system.
EXAMPLE 196
Study of the Protective Power Against the Oxidation of LDLs
The capacity of the compounds of the invention to reduce the proportions of oxidized LDLs was measured in the following manner. A combination of native LDLS, a free radical-generating system Cu2+ and the test compounds were incubated for 24 hours.
The results are obtained after analyzing the mixture using a high-performance chromatographic technique: FPLC (fast protein liquid chromatography). The protective power of the test compound is determined after comparison of the chromatogram obtained with that of the reference positive control: probucol.
It is clearly evident that the compounds of the invention have a protecting power which is very high and substantially greater than that for the most related prior art compound.
EXAMPLE 197
Study of the Inhibitory Activity of the Compounds of the Biosynthesis of Eicosanoids
Investigation of the inhibitory activity of the compounds on the biosynthesis of eicosanoids was performed on human platelets previously activated with thrombin and added to the test products.
The production of thromboxane B2, which is a major eicosanoid produced by platelets, is determined by radioimmunological assay (RIA).
The compounds of the invention substantially inhibit the production of thromboxane B2 whereas the most related prior art compound has no effect on this production.
