Chromone derivative, and aldose reductase inhibitor comprising said compound as active component

TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to chromone derivatives with the inhibitory action on aldose reductase which are effective for the treatment of a complication due to diabetes, as well as to utilities thereof.
TECHNICAL BACKGROUND
In recent years, attention is drawn to the accumulation of sorbitol in cells via a polyol pathway, i.e. a metabolic pathway of glucose, as a causative factor of various of a complication in diabetes of cataract, retinopathy, keratopathy, nephrosis, and neuropathy. This polyol pathway is the metabolic pathway of converting aldoses e.g. glucose, galaclose, etc., through polyols e.g. sorbitol, galactitol, etc., into ketoses e.g. fructose, etc. According to immunotissue-chemical techniques, this pathway was proved to occur widely in various tissues.
The enzyme catalyzing conversion between aldoses and polyols (i.e. the first step of this pathway) is called aldose reductase, and this enzyme is considered the rate-limiting enzyme in the polyol pathway. It has been reported that various complication in patients with diabetes are effectively prevented and cured by inhibiting of aldose reductase and lowering the production and accumulation of sorbitol (Pharmacia, 24: 459 (1988)).
Under the circumstances, it has been desired to develop pharmaceuticals with the inhibitory action on aldose reductase.
As pharmaceuticals with the inhibitory action on aldose reductase, Japanese Patent Appln. LOP Publication No. 228914/1989 discloses chromone derivatives, Capillarisin (R.dbd.H) and 7-methyl Capillarisin (R.dbd.CH.sub.3), which having been isolated from the herb of Artemisia capillaris thunb and are represented by Formula: ##STR2##
Among prior an compounds similar in structure to Capillarisin, chromone derivatives, which are represented by Formula (A): ##STR3## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5, and R.sub.6 are set forth in Table 2, belong to the prior an (for example, Japanese Patent Appln. LOP Publications Nos. 169586/1990, 39085/1981 and 322066/88 and Journal of the Pharmaceutical Society of Japan, 96: 841(1976) and 96: 855 (1976)). However, no reports have revealed whether the chromone derivatives exhibit the inhibitory action on aldose reductase.

EXAMPLE
336.0 g of potassium t-butoxide was suspended in 2 l of toluene. Under cooling on ice, 196.0 g of 2'-hydroxy-4',6'-dimethoxyacetophenone and 2 l of toluene solution of 72.0 ml carbon sulfide were added dropwise to the solution. The mixture was stirred over 20 hours at room temperature, and 7 l of water was added in order to extract the toluene layer. This toluene solution was adjusted to pH 4-5 by addition of 800 ml of 10 % aqueous sulfuric acid solution and was then stirred for 5 hours at room temperature. Subsequently, the solution was allowed to stand overnight. The resulting yellow crystals were collected by filtration under reduced pressure, sufficiently washed with water, and dried at 50.degree. C. for 3 days under reduced pressure, whereby crude 4-hydroxy-5,7-dimethoxychromene-2-thion, 160.0 g, was obtained. 160.0 g of 4-hydroxy-5,7-dimethoxychromene-2-thion and 110.4 g of potassium carbonate were suspended in 4.8 l of water. 125.0 ml methyl iodide was added to the mixture at room temperature, followed by stirring for 2.5 hours. The resulting crystals were collected by filtration under reduced pressure, sufficiently washed with water, and dried at 60.degree. C. under reduced pressure, whereby crude 5,7-dimethoxy-2-methylthiochromone, 146.8 g, was obtained. 146.8 g of 5,7-dimethoxy-2-methylthiochromone was suspended in 3 l of methanol. Under cooling on ice, 1.5 l aqueous solution of 252.2 g oxone was added thereto, followed by stirring for 3 hours at room temperature. 4 l of water was added to the reaction solution. The product was extracted twice with dichloromethane (4 l and 2 l, respectively), and the resulting organic layer was washed with saturated salt water and dried over sodium sulfate anhydride. The solvent was distilled out under reduced pressure. The crude product was subjected to recrystallization from 8 l methanol, whereby 5,7-dimethoxy-2-methylsulfinylchromone (Intermediate (1)), 91.5 g, was obtained.
The inhibitory action on aldose reductase demonstrated by the present compounds is explained in the following experimental examples.
EXPERIMENTAL EXAMPLE 1
<Determination of Aldose Reductase Activity (In Vitro)>
6 week-old Wistar rats were sacrificed under ether anesthesia, and immediately lenses were removed and stored at -20.degree. C. The crystalline lenses were homogenized in 135 mM sodium-potassium-phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) and centrifuged for 30 min. at 30,000 rpm. The supernatant was used as an aldose-reductase solution. The above procedure was carried out at 4.degree. C. The enzyme solution was stored at -20.degree. C.
The measurement of aldose reductase activity was conducted according to the method as described by Dufrane et al. (Biochemical Medicine, 32: 99-105 (1984)).
That is, 100 .mu.l of the above enzyme solution and 100 .mu.l of a solution prepared by dissolving a compound obtained in the following example to a final concentration of from 1.0.times.10.sup.-5 to 4.0.times.10.sup.-7 M in dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) were added to 800 .mu.l of 135 mM sodium-potassium-phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) containing 100 mM lithium sulfate, 0.03 mM NADPH (reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate) and 20 mM glucose as a substrate. The sample was allowed to react for 30 min. at 30.degree. C. The reaction was stopped by addition of 0.3 ml of 0.5N hydrochloric acid. The NADP (oxided form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) formed during the above reaction was convened into a fluorescent substance by addition of 1 ml of 6N sodium hydroxide containing 10 mM imidazole. 30 min. thereafter, the sample was measured for fluorescence intensity at the fluorescence wavelength of 460 nm (excitation wavelength: 360 nm) using a fluorescence photometer F-4000 (manufactured by Hitachi, Ltd.) at room temperature. A sample containing DMSO in place of the present compound was used as a control, and its fluorescence intensity was determined in the same manner as above.
Aldose reductase is an enzyme to convert DL-glyceraldehyde or glucose into polyol in the presence of NADPH as a coenzyme. As this reaction proceeds, NADPH is converted into NADP, so that the smaller amount of NADP formed indicates higher inhibition of aldose reductase.
EXPERIMENTAL EXAMPLE 2
<Determination of Aldose Reductase Activity (In Vivo)>
Streptozotocin (STZ) dissolved in 10 mM citrate buffer (pH 4.5) was administered intravenously to 6 week-old Wistar male rats at the brush in an amount of 65 mg/kg. 48 hours thereafter, blood was collected from the carotid acteries of the rats. Rats with a blood glucose level of 200 mg/dl or more were classified as those with diabetes. Rats with a-persistent high level of blood sugar were employed in the experiment. The blood glucose level was determined by the glucose oxidase method.
2 weeks after administration of STZ, a compound obtained in the following examples was suspended in purified water or 0.5 % carboxy sodium cellulose solution. This solution was orally administered into a rat in an amount of 30 mg/kg for 2 weeks. 2 weeks after the adminstration, sciatic nerves were removed from the rat under ether anesthesia. The sciatic nerves were weighed and stored at -20.degree. C.
The amount of sorbitol contained in the sciatic nerves was determined as follows.
That is, the sciatic nerves were subjected to extraction with 1 ml of purified water containing 10 .mu.g/ml arabinitol at 100 .degree. C. for 20 min., followed by addition of 0.2 ml each of 0.2 M barium hydroxide and 0.19 M zinc sulfate. The mixture was centrifuged (3000 rpm, 30 min.), and the supernatant was evaporated to dryness. The resulting sample was trimethysilylated and was then analyzed by gas chromatography. Sorbitol is an intermediate which occurs during convertion of glucose to fructose by aldose reductase, and this intermediate is accumulated together with fructose in the crystalline lenses and sciatic nerves, particularly under a high level of blood glucose. Therefore, the smaller amount of sorbitol formed indicates higher inhibition of aldose reductase. Table 3 shows inhibition rate (%) by the present compounds at the concentration of 10 .mu.M, 50 % inhibition concentration �IC.sub.50 (M)! and repression rate (%) at 30 mg/kg.

Compound (Formula B): ##STR8##
It has been reported that some aldose reductase inhibitors exhibit inhibition of aldehyde reductase, i.e. an enzyme analogous to aldose reductase (Biochemical Pharmacology, 40: 1033-1042 (1990)). Aldehyde reductase is present together with aldose reductase within the same tissues. If such an aldose reductase inhibitor acts on said two enzymes to the same extent, then the effect of the inhibitor is lowered depending on the amount of aldehyde reductase present. It is expected therefore that such an inhibitor also having the inhibitory action on aldehyde reductase is consumed for aldehyde reductase before it acts on aldose reductase, and thus no sufficient effects can be expected unless the inhibitor is selective toward aldose reductase.
Therefore, the present inventors have conducted the following experiment in order to examine the ability of selective inhibition of aldose reductase demonstrated by the present compounds.
EXPERIMENTAL EXAMPLE 3
<Ability of Selective Inhibition of Aldose Reductase>
From rats under ether anesthesia, the kidneys were removed and stored at -20 .degree. C. The kidneys were homogenized in 0.1M phosphate buffer (pH 7.2) containing 5 mM 2-mercaptoethanol (kidneys:buffer=1:10 (by volume)), followed by centrifugation (14,000 rpm, 20 min., 4.degree. C.), whereby a supernatant was obtained. The supernatant thus obtained was subjected to 30-60 % ammonium sulfate fractionation. The resulting precipitates were collected by centrifugation (9,200 rpm, 20 min., 4.degree. C.) The precipitates were suspended in a buffer with the same composition as described above. This suspension was dialyzed overnight at 4.degree. C. against a buffer with the same composition, so that a crude aldehyde reductase solution was obtained. The activity of aldehyde reductase was determined in the same manner as for aldose reductase except for use of 0.1M phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) and as substrate 50 mM DL-glyceraldehyde.
The ability of selective inhibition of aldose reductase was determined by dividing the thus obtained 50 % inhibition concentration �IC.sub.50 (M)! of aldehyde reductase by the above 50 % inhibition concentration �IC.sub.50 (M)! of aldose reductase.
