Bicyclo[3,3,0]octan-3-ones

This invention relates to intermediates useful in the preparation of 6-keto-prostaglandin derivatives, to a process for their preparation, and to their use.
The 6-keto-prostaglandin derivatives 6-keto-PGE.sub.1 and 6-keto-PGF.sub.1.alpha. are compounds of the formula: ##STR2##
They and their analogues possess the valuable pharmacological properties typical of the prostaglandins in a selective fashion, in particular hypotensive activity, inhibitory activity on gastric acid secretion and gastric ulceration, stimulatory activity on uterine contraction and abortifacient, luteolytic and antinidatory activity, and are useful in the treatment of hypertension, in the treatment of disorders of the peripheral circulation, in the prevention and treatment of cerebral thrombosis and myocardial infarction, in the treatment of gastric ulceration, in the termination of pregnancy and induction of labour in pregnant female mammals, in the treatment of impaired fertility and in the control of oestrus, contraception and menstrual regulation in female mammals. (see U.S. Pat. No. 4,215,142 and German Patent Specification No. 2753986).
The 6-keto-PGE.sub.1 derivative 2-decarboxy-2-glycoloyl-6-keto-PGE.sub.1 of the formula: ##STR3## possesses selectively a strong cytoprotective activity and very low toxicity, having relatively weak pharmacological properies typical of other prostaglandins, and therefore can be used as a very effective agent for the treatment of cyto-damage (in the treatment of diseases of various organisms or systems in human beings associated with cytodamage) (see U.S. Pat. No. 4,443,478).
Accordingly 6-keto-prostaglandin analogues (such as 6-keto-PGE.sub.1 and 6-keto-PGF.sub.1.alpha. and their analogues which are referred to hereinafter as 6-keto-PGs) show more selective pharmacological activities associated with modified parts of the analogues' molecular skeletons and are expected to be developed as medicines in the future.
A known process for the preparation of 6-keto-PGs (see U.S. Pat. No. 4,215,142) is shown in Scheme A in which THP represents a tetrahydropyran-2-yl group. This known process has the disadvantage of requiring many process steps. ##STR4##
In other known processes for the preparation of 6-keto-PGE.sub.1, the .alpha.-side chain may be introduced at a different stage of the reaction sequence. However in such processes only the order of the reaction steps is changed. The known process depicted in Scheme A has been chosen to provide the clearest comparison with the new preparation process using intermediates according to the present invention.
It has now been discovered that, for example, 6-keto-PGE.sub.1 may be prepared by a new sequence of reactions, via novel intermediate compounds, as shown in Scheme B, wherein THP is as hereinbefore defined. ##STR5##
It will be seen that, starting from compound (A), the known process (Scheme A) requires 9 steps to prepare 6-keto-PGE.sub.1, whereas the process of the present invention (Scheme B) requires only 4 steps. Furthermore the reactions in Scheme B such as acylation and decarboxylation are easily carried out. As a result the process of Scheme B takes less time to carry out and the overall yield is increased, leading to a corresponding reduction in overall cost.

The present invention is concerned with all compounds of general formula (I) in the optically active "natural" form or its enantiomeric form or mixtures thereof, more particularly the racemic form consisting of an equimolecular mixture of the "natural" form and its enantiomeric form.
The compounds of general formula (I) have at least six asymmetric centres, i.e. the carbon atoms at the 1-, 4-, 5-, 6- and 7-positions and the carbon atom attached to the OR.sup.5 group in the side chain attached to the 6-position. When an alkyl group or an alkylene group represented by various substituents is branched-chain or when a cycloalkyl group represented by R.sup.4 is a substituted cycloalkyl group, other asymmetric centres may occur. The existence of assymmetric centres gives rise to isomerism. In the compounds of general formula (I), the substituents attached to the carbon atoms at the 1-, 5- and 7-positions of the bicyclic skeleton (the cyclopentane ring made up of the carbon atoms at the 1-, 5-, 6-, 7- and 8-positions forms the foundation) are cis- to each other and the substituent attached to the carbon atom at the 6-position is trans-to the substituents attached to the carbon atoms at the 1-, 5- and 7-positions. It is to be understood that all isomers and mixtures thereof as mentioned above are to be considered within the scope of general formula (I).
According to a feature of the present invention, compounds of the general formula (I) are prepared by acylation at the 4-position of a compound of the general formula: ##STR9## (wherein all of the symbols are as hereinbefore defined) with a reactive derivative of a carboxylic acid of the general formula:
HOOC--(CH.sub.2).sub.2 --Z--W.sup.1
(wherein all of the symbols are as hereinbefore defined) to introduce the side chain --CO(CH.sub.2).sub.2 --Z--W.sup.1. The selective acylation at the 4-position of compounds of the general formula (II) may be carried out by reacting a compound of the general formula (II) with a lithium compound for example compound of the general formula: ##STR10## (wherein R.sup.8 and R.sup.9, which may be the same or different, each represents an alkyl group of 1 to 6 carbon atoms or a cycloalkyl group of 3 to 6 carbon atoms), or an alkali metal alkoxide such as sodium tert-butoxide or potassium tert-butoxide, or an alkali metal bis(trialkylsilyl)amide such as sodium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide, preferably lithium diisopropylamide (LDA), in an inert organic solvent such as toluene, tetrahydrofuran, hexane, pentane or diethyl ether, preferably in toluene, at a temperature from -78.degree. C. to room temperature, preferably from -78.degree. C. to -30.degree. C.; the reaction with the reactive derivative is also carried out at a temperature from -78.degree. C. to room temperature. Examples of the reactive acidic derivatives are the acid halide (preferably an acid chloride), acid anhydride (an internal acid anhydride is included when W.sup.1 represents the formula --COOH, e.g. ##STR11## or a diester compound (in which W.sup.1 represents --COOR.sup.1 and R.sup.1 is other than hydrogen), or a mixed acid anhydride with, for example, tert-butylchloroformate.
The starting materials of general formula (II) may be prepared by the methods described in the following literature references and patent specifications, or obvious modifications thereof:
(A) when R.sup.3 -R.sup.4 represents a straight or branched chain alkyl group, by the method described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,061,865, British Patent No. 1398291 and Japanese Patent Publication Nos. 49-124048 and 50-101340; when R.sup.3 -R.sup.4 represents an n-pentyl group, they are obtained by the method described in J. Am. Chem. Soc., 92 397 (1970);
(B) when R.sup.3 represents a single bond or a straight or branched chain alkylene group and R.sup.4 represents a substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl group, they are obtained by the method described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,966,792, 4,045,468, 4,061,865 and 4,117,119 and Japanese Patent Publication Nos. 50-148339 and 53-25544;
(C) when R.sup.3 represents a single bond or a straight or branched chain alkylene group and R.sup.4 represents a substituted or unsubstituted phenyl group, they are obtained by the method described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,061,865;
(D) when R.sup.3 represents a straight or branched chain alkylene group and R.sup.4 represents a substituted or unsubstituted phenoxy group, they are obtained by the method described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,065,632 and Japanese Patent No. 1214209
The reactive carboxylic acid derivatives used in the acylation reaction can be purchased or can be prepared by known methods.
According to a feature of the present invention the intermediates of general formula (I) of the present invention may be converted into the 6-keto-PGs of the general formula (III) hereinafter described by the series of reactions depicted schematically below in Scheme C.
The configuration of the asymmetric carbon at the 4-position of the bicyclic compound of general formula (I) is R-configuration, S-configuration or a mixture thereof, but the asymmetric carbon disappears by decarboxylation in the step [a] and therefore the final products are not related to the asymmetric carbon atom at the 4-position.
The hydroxy-protecting groups R.sup.5 in the compounds of the present invention, which are removed by hydrolysis in step [c] of Scheme C, are groups which can be removed under acidic conditions without affecting other parts of the molecule. ##STR12## wherein W.sup.2 represents a group of the formula: --COOR.sup.1, --CH.sub.2 OR.sup.2, --CON(R.sup.6) or --CH(OH)CH.sub.2 OR.sup.5 (wherein the various symbols are as hereinbefore defined), W.sup.3 represents a group of the formula: --COOR.sup.1, --CH.sub.2 OR.sup.5, --CON(R.sup.6).sub.2 or --COCH.sub.2 OR.sup.5 (wherein the various symbols are as hereinbefore defined), W.sup.4 represents a group of the formula: --COOR.sup.1, --CH.sub.2 OH, --CON(R.sup.6) or --COCH.sub.2 OH (wherein the various symbols are as hereinbefore defined), Q represents a group of the formula ##STR13## and the other symbols are as hereinbefore defined, with the proviso that W.sup.4 does not represent a group of the formula --COCH.sub.2 OH when Q represents a group of the formula ##STR14##
All of the reaction steps in Scheme C may be conducted by known methods.
For example, the decarboxylation step (a) may be carried out using a base such as potassium hydroxide or sodium hydroxide in a mixture of a lower alkanol such as methanol or ethanol and water, at a temperature from room temperature to the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture. When W.sup.1 represents an ester group COOR.sup.1 in which R.sup.1 is other than hydrogen, the ester is saponified to a free carboxylic acid by this reaction. The free carboxylic acid may be esterified by known methods, if desired, for example, by diazomethane, if a methyl ester is desired, because of the easy purification.
The oxidation step (b) may be carried out by using, for example;
(1) dimethylsulfide-N-chlorosuccinimide complex, thioanisole-N-chlorosuccinimide complex, dimethylsulfide-chlorine complex or thioanisole-chlorine complex in a halogenated hydrocarbon such as chloroform, methylene chloride or carbon tetrachloride or in toluene at a temperature from 0.degree. C. to -30.degree. C. followed by treatment with triethylamine (cf. J. Amer, Chem. Soc., 94, 7586 (1972)).
(2) using chromium trioxide-pyridine complex (e.g. Collins reagent) in a halogenated hydrocarbon such as chloroform, methylene chloride or carbon tetrachloride at a temperature from room temperature to 0.degree. C., preferably at 0.degree. C.,
(3) using Jones reagent below room temperature, or
(4) using oxalyl chloride and dimethylsulfoxide in a halogenated hydrocarbon such as chloroform or methylene chloride at a temperature from -50.degree. C. to -60.degree. C. (Swern oxidation), and then treatment with triethylamine.
The step (c) to remove protecting groups, may be carried out, for example:
(1) in an aqueous solution of an organic acid such as acetic acid, propionic acid, oxalic acid or p-toluenesulfonic acid or an aqueous solution of an inorganic acid such as hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid at a temperature from room temperature to 75.degree. C. (preferably below 45.degree. C.), suitably in the presence of a water-miscible organic solvent, for example a lower alkanol such as methanol or ethanol (preferably methanol) or an ether such as 1,2-dimethoxyethane, dioxan or tetrahydrofuran (preferably tetrahydrofuran).
(2) by mild hydrolysis in the presence of an organic acid such as p-toluenesulfonic acid or trifluoroacetic acid in an anhydrous alkanol such as methanol or ethanol at a temperature from 10.degree. C. to 45.degree. C.
The hydrolysis is preferably carried out using a mixture of hydrochloric acid, water and tetrahydrofuran, a mixture of hydrochloric acid, water and methanol, a mixture of acetic acid, water and tetrahydrofuran or a mixture of p-toluenesulfonic acid and anhydrous methanol.
In the reactions hereinbefore described to convert intermediates of general formula (I) to 6-keto-PGs, the group W.sup.1 is converted to a group W.sup.4, via groups W.sup.2 and W.sup.3.
The conversions for each of the groups represented by W.sup.1, W.sup.2, W.sup.3 and W.sup.4 are shown in the following Table.
