Biphenylmethane derivative and pharmacological use

FIELD OF THE INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION
The present invention relates to a condensed imidazole compound and pharmacologically acceptable salts thereof which exhibit an excellent activity as a pharmaceutical. More particularly, the present invention is concerned with a novel biphenylmethane derivative and pharmacologically acceptable salts thereof useful as a therapeutic agent for hypertension and/or a therapeutic agent for cardiac failure.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION AND PRIOR ART
About 20% of the whole Japanese, i.e., about twenty million or more Japanese are suffering from hypertension, and the hypertension is a serious risk factor of various cerebral diseases, heart diseases, etc. In practice, thiazide hypotensive diuretic agents, .beta.-blockers, calcium antagonists, ACE inhibitors, etc., have now been clinically utilized for drug therapy of the hypertension.
However, the origin and pathology of the hypertension are very different, and it is difficult to significantly control all types of hypertension through the use of only one drug. Further, regarding safety, the .beta.-blocker brings about cardiac depression and bronchial actuation as the side effects and the diuretic agent brings about side effects such as hyperuricemia, abnormal saccharometabolism and abnormal fat metabolism, while the ACE inhibitor brings about cough as the side effect.
Under the above-described circumstances, different types of better hypotensives which exhibit their effects through various mechanisms have still been desired.
The present inventors have made extensive and intensive studies on a compound having a nonpeptide angiotensin II antagonistic activity for years and, as a result, have found that the following biphenylmethane derivative has an excellent activity.
Examples of the imidazole compound having an angiotensin II antagonistic activity proposed in the art include those disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 148788/1979, 71073/1981, 71074/1981, 98270/1982, 157768/1983 and 23868/1988. Further, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 240683/1987 proposes 4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridine-6-carboxylic acid derivatives. Any of the above-described compounds are different from the compounds of the present invention, which will be described hereinbelow, in the structure.

FIRST STEP
A condensed imidazole derivative represented by the general formula (II) is condensed with a nitrile compound represented by the general formula (III) by the conventional process to prepare a compound represented by the general formula (IV).
The above-described reaction is usually conducted in the presence of a base. Examples of the base include sodium hydride, lithium hydride, potassium carbonate, sodium carbonate, sodium alcoholate, tert-butoxypotassium, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, triethylamine and diisopropylethylamine.

In the formulae, X is a halogen atom, a methanesulfonyloxy group or a p-toluenesulfonyloxy group, and the halogen atom may be chlorine, bromine, iodine or the like.
In the present process, especially preferred examples thereof include one which comprises forming a metal salt of (1) in an aprotic polar solvent, such as dimethylformamide, through the use of lithium hydride or sodium hydride as a base and then conducting alkylation at 0.degree. C. to room temperature through the use of a biphenylmethyl halide [X=Cl, Br] and one which comprises forming a sodium salt of (1) in an alcohol through the use of sodium alcoholate as a base and then conducting alkylation at room temperature through the use of a biphenylmethyl halide [X=Cl, Br].
The compound represented by the general formula (III) which may be used as a starting material in the present process can be prepared by the process described in, e.g., A. I. Meyers et al., J. Org. Chem., 43, 1372 (1978) or Japanese Patent Laid-OPen No. 23868/1988.
SECOND STEP
The compound represented by the general formula (IV) can be reacted with an azide represented by the general formula (V) by heating in an aprotic polar solvent to prepare a compound represented by the general formula (VI).
The compound represented by the general formula (VI) can be preferably synthesized by heating sodium azide in the presence of an amine salt, such as ammonium chloride [see J. P. Hurwitz et al., J. Org. Chem., 26, 3392 (1961)], triethylamine hydrochloride [see P. P. Bernstein et al., Synthesis, 1133 (1987)] or a pyridine hydrochloride [see H. Nakai et al., J. Med. Chem., 31, 84 (1988)] while stirring in a solvent, such as dimethylformamide, N-methylpyrrolidone or 1,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidone at 120.degree. to 150.degree. C.
When R1 is --(CH2)p--OR7, p is zero and R7 is an alkyl, the starting compound (II) in which R1 is an alkoxy can be used in the above shown process. Another process comprises conducting the steps (I) and (II) by using the starting compound (II) in which R1 is --S--alkyl, then oxidizing the obtained compound (VI') in which R1 is SO2 alkyl and reacting the sulfonyl compound (VI') with a compound having --R7OM, R7 being an alkyl, M being a metal such as sodium and potassiuim, to obtain a final compound in which R1 is an alkoxy.

The ester is hydrolyzed by the conventional procedure. When R.sup.8 is a lower alkyl group such as a methyl or ethyl group, the ester can be easily converted into a carboxylic acid, e.g., by heating the ester under reflux in a mixed solvent comprising ethanol and an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. Although the hydrolysis by a base is preferred, any method may be applied as far as it can eliminate the protective group of the carboxylic acid.
As shown above, the compound of the invenion can be produced by the process (I) in which R5 being tetrazolyl, a condensed imidazol (II) and a biphenylmethane compound (II) are reacted with each other by condensation and cyano for R5 is converted to tetrazol with an azid compound (V).

The compound in which R5 is --COOH can be obtained by hydrolyzing the compound (VIII).

The effect of the compounds of the present invention will now be described in more detail by way of the following examples of pharmacological experiment.
EXAMPLES OF PHARMACOLOGICAL EXPERIMENT
1 Experimental Method
(1) Angiotensin II contracture antagonism through the use of rabbit aortic strip
A male New Zealand white rabbit having a weight of 2 to 3 kg was anesthetized with pentobarbital sodium, and the thoracic aorta was removed. A spiral preparation of the aorta having a width of 1.5 to 2 mm and a length of 15 to 20 mm was prepared therefrom and suspended in a 10-ml Magnus tank containing a Krebs bicarbonate solution (Krebs bicarbonate (mM): NaCl 118.4, KCl 4.7, CaCl.sub.2 2.0, MgSO.sub.4.7H.sub.2 O 1.2, NaHCO.sub.3 25.0. KH.sub.2 PO.sub.4 1.2, glucose 11.1). 10M indomethacine was added thereto to eliminate the influence of prostaglandin. The Krebs solution was maintained at 37.degree. C. and bubbled with 95% O.sub.2 - 5% CO.sub.2. An initial tension of 1 g was applied to the strip, and the strip was allowed to stand for about 1 hr. Then, 50 mM KCl was added thereto to induce contracture. After the contracture was stabilized, the strip was washed. The above procedure was repeated twice, and the second contracture was taken as 100% contracture.
Thereafter, angiotensin II was accumulatively added from 10.sup.-10 to 3.times.10.sup.-6 to prepare a dose-reaction curve. When studying the antagonistic activity of the angiotensin II antagonist, a test compound was added in a concentration of 10.sup.-6 to 10.sup.-9 M 40 min before the addition of 10.sup.-10 M angiotensin to observe the shift of the dose-reaction curve toward the right. The contraction was recorded on a multi-pen recorder (R-10 manufactured by Rika Denki Kogyo Co., Ltd.) through a carrier amplifier (AP620G or AP621G manufactured by Nihon Koden Corp.) by making use of an isometric piezoelectric transducer (TB611T manufactured by Nihon Koden Corp.). The potency of the angiotensin II antagonist was determined by calculating negative logarithm (-log) of a concentration of pA.sub.2 value [i.e., a concentration of competitive antagonist which makes the dose ratio of the active agent 2] through the use of Schild's equation. The results are given in Table 1.
(2) Inhibition of pressor reaction of angiotensin II on anesthetized rat (Wistar Kyoto) having blocked ganglions
A 9 to 25 week-old Wistar Kyoto male rat (Charles River Japan) was anesthetized with 50 mg/kg pentobarbital sodium intraperitoneally, and the carotid and jugular were cannulated. The carotid cannula was connected to a piezoelectric transducer (TP-200T), and recording was conducted with a polygraph system (RM-6000 manufactured by Nihon Koden Corp.) through a carrier amplifier (AP-601G manufactured by Nihon Koden Corp.) and an average blood pressure measuring panel (Nihon Koden Corp.) utilizing the integration of pulse waves. 10 mg/kg of pentolinium was administered intravenously through the jugular cannula to conduct ganglion blockade. After the blood pressure was stabilized, 0.003 to 0.1 or 0.3 .mu.g/kg of angiotensin II was accumulatively administered intravenously at such time intervals that the pressor reaction in each dose was substantially restored (2 to 3 min), thereby preparing a dose-reaction curve. Then, 0.1 to 10 mg/kg of the test compound was administered intravenously, and 0.03 to 1 .mu.g/kg of angiotensin II was again administered intravenously 3 min after the administration of the test compound to determine the rate of shift of the dose-pressor reaction curve toward the right. A dose (C, .apprxeq.ED.sub.50, mg/kg, i.v.) necessary for bringing about doubled shift of the dose-pressor reaction curve toward the right was determined from the dose of the antagonist (A, mg/kg, i.v.) and the above-described rate of shift (B). ##EQU1## The results are given in Table 1.
2. Experimental Results
The results of pharmacological experiments (1) and (2) on the compounds of the present invention (test compounds) are given in Table 1.
