The invention relates to .DELTA..sup.8 - and .DELTA..sup.9 -prostaglandin derivatives, process for their production as well as their use as auxiliary agents for pharmacological studies and as pharmaceutical agents.
It has been found, surprisingly, that chemically and metabolically stable prostaglandin analogs, whose pharmacological properties are comparable to those of unstable thromboxane A.sub.2 (TXA.sub.2) or PGH.sub.2, are obtained by the introduction of a double bond in 8 or 9 position in connection with an aromatic substituent on 17 position.
The compounds of this invention therefore are suitable as auxiliary agents for pharmacological characterizations as well as for selective treatment of diseases, which are attributable to a deficiency of endogenous TXA.sub.2 /PGH.sub.2.
The invention relates to .DELTA..sup.8 - and .DELTA..sup.9 -prostaglandin derivatives of formula I, ##STR3## in which means the radicals or R.sup.1 can be ##STR4## COOR.sup.4, in which R.sup.4 can mean hydrogen or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 alkyl radical optionally substituted by halogen, phenyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy or di-(C.sub.1 -C.sub.4) alkylamino, a C.sub.3 -C.sub.10 cycloalkyl radical, a C.sub.7 -C.sub.16 aralkyl radical, a phenacyl radical substituted by W, a C.sub.6 -C.sub.12 aryl radical or a 5- or 6-member heterocyclic radical with at least one N, O or S atom, or R.sup.1 can be a CONHR.sup.5 radical with R.sup.5 meaning hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 alkanoyl or C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 alkanesulfonyl,

The invention further relates to a process for the production of compounds of formula I, which is characterized in that a compound of formula II ##STR5## in which
R.sup.4 means a hydroxy group and R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, X and W have the above-indicated meanings and free OH groups in R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and W are protected, is reacted with diethylaminosulfur trifluoride [M. Sharma, Tetrahedron Lett. 573 (1977); W. J. Middleton, J. Org. Chem. 40, 574 (1975)] or other fluorinating agents, such as, e.g., (HF).sub.n,-pyridine [G. A. Olah, Synthesis 786 (1973)]or SeF.sub.4 -pyridine [G. A. Olah, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 96, 925 (1974)] and optionally protected hydroxy groups in R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and W are released and/or free hydroxy groups are esterified, etherified, and/or an esterified carboxy group is saponified or a carboxy group with a physiologically compatible base is converted to a salt or reacted to a clathrate with alpha-, beta- or gamma-cyclodextrin or encapsulated with liposomes.
The reaction of the compounds of the general formula II to the compounds of the general formula I is performed with diethylaminosulfur trifluoride at -80.degree. C. to +40.degree. C., preferably at -70.degree. C. to +25.degree. C. As a solvent, dichloromethane, 1.1.2-trifluorotrichloroethane, pyridine, toluene, benzene, ethylene chloride, i.a., preferably toluene and pyridine, are suitable.
The release of functionally modified hydroxy groups R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and W takes place according to the methods known to one skilled in the art. For example, the cleavage of the ether protecting groups is performed in an aqueous solution of an organic acid, such as, e.g., acetic acid, propionic acid, citric acid, i.a., or in an aqueous solution of an inorganic acid, such as, e.g., hydrochloric acid, or in the case of tetrahydropyranyl ethers with-use of Pyridinium-p-toluenesulfonate, preferably in alcohols as solvent or with use of anhydrous magnesium bromide, preferably in diethyl ether as a solvent.
To improve the solubility, a water-miscible inert solvent is suitably added with use of aqueous-acid reaction conditions. Proven as suitable, there are, e.g., alcohols, such as methanol and ethanol, ethers, such as dimethoxyethane, dioxane and tetrahydrofuran, and tetrahydrofuran is preferably used.
The cleavage of silylether protecting groups takes place, for example, with tetrabutylammonium fluoride according to the methods known to one skilled in the art. As solvent, for example, tetrahydrofuran, diethyl ether, dioxane, methylene chloride, etc., are suitable. The cleavage is performed preferably at temperatures between 20.degree. and 80.degree. C.
The saponification of the acyl groups and prostaglandin ester is performed according to the methods known to one skilled in the art, such as, for example, with basic catalysts, such as, e.g., with alkali or alkaline-earth carbonates or hydroxides in an alcohol or the aqueous solution of an alcohol. As alcohols, aliphatic alcohols, such as, e.g., methanol, ethanol, butanol, etc., but preferably methanol, are suitable. As alkali carbonates and alkali hydroxides, there can be mentioned lithium, sodium and potassium salts. The lithium and potassium salts are preferred. As alkaline-earth carbonates and alkaline-earth hydroxides, for example, calcium carbonate, calcium hydroxide and barium carbonate are suitable. The reaction generally takes place at -10.degree. to +70.degree. C., but preferably at +25.degree. C.
The introduction of the ester groups CO.sub.2 R.sup.4 for R.sup.1 or CO.sub.2 R.sup.6 for W, in which R.sup.4 or R.sup.6 represents an alkyl group with 1-10 C atoms, takes place according to the methods known to one skilled in the art. The 1-carboxy compounds (R.sup.4 =H or R.sup.6 =H) are reacted, for example, with diazohydrocarbons in a way known in the art. The esterification with diazohydrocarbons takes place, e.g., in that a solution of the diazohydrocarbon in an inert solvent, preferably in diethyl ether, is mixed with the 1-carboxy compound, dissolved in the same or in another inert solvent, such as, e.g., methylene chloride. After completion of the reaction within 1 to 60 minutes, the solvent is removed and the ester is purified in the usual way. Diazoalkanes are either known or can be produced according to known methods (Org. Reactions, Vol. 8, pages 389-394 (1954)).
The introduction of the ester group CO.sub.2 R.sup.4 for R.sup.1 or CO.sub.2 R.sup.6 for W, in which R.sup.4 or R.sup.6 represents a substituted or an unsubstituted aryl group, takes place according to the methods known to one skilled in the art. For example, the 1-carboxy compounds are reacted with the corresponding arylhydroxy compounds with dicyclohexylcarbodiimide in the presence of a suitable base, such as, e.g., pyridine, dimethylaminopyridine, triethylamine, in an inert solvent, such as, e.g., methylene chloride, ethylene chloride, chloroform, ethyl acetate, tetrahydrofuran, but preferably with chloroform. The reaction is performed at temperatures between -30.degree. C. and +50.degree. C., preferably at +10.degree. C.
The prostaglandin derivatives of formula I with R.sup.4 or R.sup.6 meaning a hydrogen atom can be converted to salts with suitable amounts of the corresponding inorganic bases with neutralization. For example, by dissolving the corresponding prostaglandin acids in water, which contains stoichiometric amounts of the base, the solid inorganic salt is obtained after evaporation of the water or after addition of a water-miscible solvent, e.g., alcohol or acetone.
The production of the amine salts takes place in the usual way. For this purpose, the prostaglandin acid is dissolved in a suitable solvent, such as, e.g., ethanol, acetone, diethyl ether or benzene and 1 to 5 equivalents of the respective amine of this solution is added. In this case, the salt usually accumulates in solid form or is isolated in the usual way after the evaporation of the solvent.
The functional modification of the free hydroxy groups takes place according to the methods known to one skilled in the art. For the introduction of the ester protecting groups, it is reacted, for example, with dihydropyran or methyl vinyl ether in methylene chloride or chloroform with use of catalytic amounts of an acidic condensing agent, such as, e.g., toluenesulfonic acid. The respective enol ether is added in excess, preferably in 1.2 to 10 times the amount of the theoretical requirement. The reaction normally takes place at -10.degree. C. to +30.degree. C. and is completed after 2 to 45 minutes.
For the introduction of silylether protecting groups, it is reacted, for example, with t-butyl-diphenylchlorosilane or t-butyl-dimethylchlorosilane in dimethylformamide with use of a base such as, e.g., imidazole. The respective silyl chloride is added in excess, preferably in 1.05 to 4 times the amount of the theoretical requirement. The reaction normally takes place at 0.degree. C. to 30.degree. C. and is completed after 1 to 24 hours.
The introduction of the acyl protecting groups takes place by a compound of formula I being reacted in a way known in the art with a carboxylic acid derivative, such as, e.g., acid chloride, acid anhydride, etc.
The new chemically and metabolically stable .DELTA..sup.8 - and .DELTA..sup.9 -fluoroprostaglandin derivatives have pharmacological properties which are comparable to those of the unstable thromboxane A.sub.2 (TXA.sub.2) or PGH.sub.2. As TXA.sub.2 /PGH.sub.2 receptor agonists, they thus represent a valuable diagnostic instrument for characterizing prostaglandin receptors or TXA.sub.2 /PGH.sub.2 receptor subtypes, with which the importance of the TXA.sub.2 /PGH.sub.2 -dependent stimulation of platelets and vessels can be established. This applies both for in vitro tests, such as, e.g., receptor characterization or displacement on the receptor, platelet aggregation inhibition tests, vessel layer constriction, etc., and for pharmacological studies on the animal.
The TXA.sub.2 /PGH.sub.2 receptor agonists can be used for specific weakening or elimination of the action of cyclooxygenase inhibitors, of TXA.sub.2 -synthetase inhibitors as well as of TXA.sub.2 /PGH.sub.2 receptor blockers. Another possibility of use exists in the partial downward adjustment of the TXA.sub.2 /PGH.sub.2 action in clinical pictures with increased sensitivity to, or production of, thromboxane, such as, e.g., those of coronary arteries or vessels with arteriosclerotic lesions.
In combination with a TXA.sub.2 /PGH.sub.2 receptor antagonist, the TXA.sub.2 /PGH.sub.2 receptor agonist can be used for diagnostic clarification of the involvement of TXA.sub.2 /PGH.sub.2 -dependent processes in such clinical pictures which require no systemic dose of a TXA.sub.2 /PGH.sub.2 receptor agonist for this diagnosis but also in other clinical pictures, provided that undesirable effects of the TXA.sub.2 /PGH.sub.2 receptor agonist can be counteracted by an antagonist.
The TXA.sub.2 /PGH.sub.2 receptor agonists are further suitable for local control of hemorrhage in the case of defects of the platelet function, which are based on an impairment of the TXA.sub.2 /PGH.sub.2 formation and/or action.
The .DELTA..sup.8 - and .DELTA..sup.9 -prostaglandin derivatives of this invention can also be used in combination, e.g., with beta-blockers, diuretics, phosphodiesterase inhibitors, Ca antagonists or nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agents.
The dose of the compounds is 1-1000 micrograms/kg/per day, if it is administered to the human patient. The unit dose for the pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle is 10 micrograms to 100 micrograms.
For parenteral administration, sterile, injectable aqueous or oily solutions are used. For oral administration, for example, tablets, coated tablets or capsules are suitable. The invention thus also relates to pharmaceutical agents based on the compounds of formula I and usual auxiliary agents and vehicles including cyclodextrin clathrates and encapsulation of liposomes.
The active ingredients according to the invention are to be used, in connection with the auxiliary agents known and usual in galenicals, for example, for the production of pharmaceutical agents.
