To introduce an aminocarbonyloxy function at the 6-position of the labdane nucleus, i.e., to prepare, for example, a compound of formula 34, a labdane-formamide acetal 32 (R.sub.1 and R.sub.9 taken together form a group of the formula CHNR.sub.2 R.sub.3 where R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are alkyl) is acylated with diimidazole 8 in the presence of an amine 10 to provide a 6.beta.-aminocarbonyloxylabdanedialkylformamide acetal 34 (R.sub.1 and R.sub.9 form a group of the formula CHNR.sub.2 R.sub.3 wherein R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are alkyl) which is hydrolyzed to a 6.beta.aminocarbonyloxy-1.alpha.,7.beta.,9.alpha.-trihydroxylabane 34 wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.9 are hydrogen. The acylation is carried out by treating 32 with diimidazole 8 in a halocarbon such as, e,g., dichloromethane, trichloromethane, tetrachloromethane, 1,1- or 1,2-dichloroethane, 1,1- or 1,2-dichloroethylene and the like, an alkyl alkanoate such as, e.g., methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, ethyl propionate and the like, or an ethereal solvent such as, e.g. tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, diethyl ether and the like, in the presence of a tertiary amine such as e.g., a trialkylamine (i.e., trimethylamine, triethylamine, tripropylamine, lutidine, collidine or the like, or a heteroaromatic amine such as, e.g. pyridine, picoline and the like, followed by an amine 10 at a reaction temperature of from about 0.degree. C. to the reflux temperature of the solvent system. The preferred solvent is a halocarbon, dichloromethane being most preferred. The preferred reaction temperature is about 25.degree. C.
To promote formation of the 6.beta.-carbamoyloxylabdane 34, the initial stage of the conversion of 32 to 34, i.e., the treatment of 32 with diimidazole 8 in the presence of a tertiary amine is allowed to proceed for an extended period of time, preferably for about 12 to about 36 hours, most preferably for about 24 hours. The intermediate 6.beta.,7.beta.-dihydroxylabdane-6.beta.,7.beta.-carbonate 33 is isolated and, in turn, treated with amine 10 to form 6.beta.-carbamoyloxylabadane 34, or the conversion may be conducted in situ, preferably in situ.
A 6.beta.-carbamoyloxy-7.beta.-hydroxylabdane 34 (wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.9 together are CHNR.sub.11 R.sub.12 wherein R.sub.11 and R.sub.12 are alkyl) may be acylated to a 7.beta.-alkanoyloxy-6.beta.-carbamoyllabdane 35 (wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.9 together are CHNR.sub.11 R.sub.12 wherein R.sub.11 and R.sub.12 are alkyl) by, for example, an alkanoic acid anhydride 19 such as acetic acid anhydride 19 (wherein R.sub.26 is methyl) in an alkanoic acid such as acetic acid 26 (wherein R.sub.18 is methyl) in the presence of a tertiary amine such as 4-dimethylaminopyridine to provide a 7.beta.-alkanoyloxy-6.beta.-carbamoyloxylabdane 35 (wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.9 are as above) such as a 7.beta.-acetoxy-6.beta.-carbamoyloxylabdane 35 (such as a 7.beta.-acetoxy-6.beta.-carbamoyloxylabdane 35 (wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.9 are as above).
A 6.beta.-alkanoyloxy-7.beta.-hydroxylabdane 37 (wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.9 taken together are CHNR.sub.11 R.sub.12 wherein R.sub.11 and R.sub.12 are alkyl), the preparation of which is described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 849,053, now U.S. Pat. No. 4,639,443, granted Jan. 27, 1987, may be carbamoylated to a 6.beta.alkanoyloxy-7.beta.-carbamoyloxy labdane 38 (wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.9 are as above) by, for example, the procedure hereinbeforedescribed for the conversion 2 to 3.
By following the hydrolytic processes hereinbeforedescribed for the cleavage of the 1.alpha.,9.alpha.-dihydroxy-1.alpha.,9.alpha.-dialkylformamide acetal group, a 6.beta.-carbamoyloxylabdane 34 wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.9 together are CHNR.sub.1l R.sub.12 wherein R.sub.11 and R.sub.12 are alkyl is converted to a 6.beta.-carbamoyloxy-1.alpha., 9.alpha.-dihydroxylabdane 34 wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.9 are hydrogen.
Similarly, by following these hydrolytic processes, the 1.alpha.,9.alpha.-dihydroxy-1.alpha.,9.alpha.-dialkylformamide acetal group of 7.beta.-alkoxy-6.beta.-carbamoyloxylabdane 35 (wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.9 together are CHNR.sub.11 R.sub.12 wherein R.sub.11 and R.sub.12 are alkyl) may be cleaved to the corresponding 1.alpha.,9.alpha.-dihydroxy derivatives 35 and 36 (wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.9 are hydrogen) (see Reaction Schemes E and F). A reduced hydrolysis temperature of about 25.degree. C. may be employed.

Intraocular pressure reduction is achieved when the present carbamoyloxylabdanes are administered to a subject requiring such treatment as an effective topical dose of a 0.01 to 3.0% solution or suspension. A particularly effective amount is about 3 drops of a 0.25% preparation per day. It is to be understood, however, that for any particular subject, specific dosage regimens should be adjusted according to the individual need and the professional judgment of the person administering or supervising the administration of the aforesaid compound. It is to be further understood that the dosages set forth herein are exemplary only and that they do not, to any extent, limit the scope or practice of the invention.
The carbamoyloxylabdanes of the present invention are also useful in the treatment of cardiac failure by virtue of their ability to elicit a positive ionotropic effect as evidenced by an increase in contractile force in an isolated guinea pig atria assay, the electrically-driven guinea pig left atrium assay, which is performed as follows:
Male guinea pigs weighing 200-300 grams are stunned with a blow to the back of the head. The heart is rapidly removed and placed in a petri dish containing Krebs solution. The ventricle is separated from the atria, the atria are sectioned into the right and left atria and double-O silk ligatures are tied to the apex of the left atrium. The atrium is fixed to a pair of platinum plate electrodes and suspended in a 20-ml tissue bath containing Kreb's solution aerated with 95% oxygen-5% carbon dioxide at 37.degree. C. One end of the atrium is fixed to a hook in the electrode and the other end is connected to a Grass FTO3 force displacement transducer. Resting tension and stabilization time are the same as described above. The atrium is stimulated at 3 Hz, 0.5 msec duration at supramaximal voltage (constant current) via a Grass S88 stimulator and constant current unit. Force of contraction is continuously displaced on a Gould recorder. Test drug is prepared as in section A and is added to the tissue baths in the same fashion. Change in contractile force from baseline is determined for each concentration, and the change in contractile force (g) is plotted against accumulated drug concentration (ug/ml). The activity of the test drug, i.e., the increase in contractile force (g) from the stabilized force expressed the percentage change at a given concentration is determined graphically, as is the ED.sub.50 -value, i.e., the extrapolated dose (ug/ml) which increases the contractile force by 50% over the stabilized rate.
Results obtained in these assays for representative carbamoyllabdanes and a reference compound as presented in Table II.
