Description

The invention relates to diarylalkyl-substituted alkylamines, to a process for their preparation, to their use as medicines, and to medicaments containing them.
Many diarylbutylpiperidine and diarylbutylpiperazine derivatives are, by reason of their action as dopamine antagonists, used therapeutically as neuroleptics. Structurally related compounds from the series of benzhydrylpiperazine and diarylbutylpiperazine derivatives act as inhibitors of the influx of calcium ions into cells, such as, for example, cinnarizine, flunarizine and lidoflazine. They are used as therapeutics for the treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disorders.
N-Arylpiperazine alkanamides with diarylbutyl substituents of piperazine systems are described in European Patent Application No. 68,544: they improve the blood supply to the heart and protect it from the consequences of an episode of ischemia, anoxia or hypoxia.
Spanish Patent No. 504,202 describes benzhydrylpiperazine derivatives in which, however, the benzhydryl group is always directly bonded to one nitrogen of the piperazine, not via a (CH.sub.2).sub.n bridge. Moreover, these compounds show merely a vasodilator action, but no calcium-antogonistic action.
Hence, it was surprising that the compounds of the present invention impede to an unusually great extent the influx of calcium ions into cells. Hence they are suitable as therapeutics for the treatment of various diseases, especially of the cardiovascular system.
The present invention is directed at compounds of the formula I ##STR4## which have excellent calcium-antagonistic actions and in which R.sup.1 denotes (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)-alkyl, straight-chain or branched, (C.sub.3 -C.sub.8)-cycloalkyl, (C.sub.2 -C.sub.6)-alkenyl, straight-chain or branched, (C.sub.5 -C.sub.8)-cycloalkenyl, ##STR5## in which R.sup.4, R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 denote, identically or differently and independently of one another, hydrogen, (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)-alkyl, (C.sub.3 -C.sub.8)-cycloalkyl, hydroxyl, (C.sub.1 -C.sub.4)-alkoxy, (C.sub.1 -C.sub.4)-alkylthio, F, Cl, Br, I, nitro, cyano, trifluoromethyl, formyl, carboxyl, (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)-alkoxycarbonyl, (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)-acyl, carbamoyl, N-mono- or N,N-di-(C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)-alkylcarbamoyl, sulfo, (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)-alkoxysulfonyl, sulfamoyl, N-mono- or N,N-di-(C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)-alkylsulfamoyl, (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)-alkylsulfinyl, (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)-alkylsulfonyl, amino, unsubstituted or substituted with one or two identical or different (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)-alkyl, (C.sub.1 -C.sub.6)-acyl or aryl, preferably phenyl, groups,

The diastereomers can be separated by conventional methods, such as fractional crystallization or column chromatography.

The compounds of the formulae XIII, XIV, XVI, XVII and XVIII are known or can be obtained by straightforward processes from starting materials which can be bought.
The compounds of the formula I, according to the invention, exhibit biological actions, in particular calcium-antagonistic actions, and thus have valuable properties for the treatment of all disease states which derive from a disturbance of the calcium balance: in particular they are suitable as agents to lower blood pressure, agents having antianginal effects, agents having antiarrhythmic effects, and for improving cerebrovascular blood flow.
Their calcium-antagonistic activity can be shown in the biochemical test model of displacement of tritium-labeled nitrendipine. We carried out this test in a membrane preparation obtained from the cortex of the rat brain and washed several times, the method which we used being essentially that of R. J. Gould et al. (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 79, 3656 [1982]). The membrane suspension which had been diluted 1:1500 with TRIS buffer pH 7.4 (50 mM TRIS-HCl, 150 mm NaCl, 1.0 mM CaCl.sub.2 and 0.001% by weight, based on TRIS-HCl, NaCl and CaCl.sub.2 solution, of a neutral surface-active substance such as, for example, Genapol.RTM.) was incubated in 5 ml portions with .sup.3 H-nitrendipine (0.1 nM in the test, specific activity 81.3 Ci/mMol) and with the test substances in various concentrations in a shaking water bath at 25.degree. C. for 60 min. The membrane fractions were removed by vacuum filtration through Whatman GF/F fiber glass filters, and the radioactivity was measured in a liquid scintillation counter. We determined the unspecific .sup.3 H-nitrendipine binding in the presence of 1 .mu.M nifedipine. The IC.sub.50 is determined as characteristic quantity, i.e. the concentration of test substance which is able to displace 50% of the radiolabeled nitrendipine.
The IC.sub.50 values of the compounds of the formula I, according to the invention, in this model are from about 10.sup.-6 molar to about 10.sup.-9 molar. Thus, they have distinctly greater activity than known comparison compounds such as flunarizine and lidoflazine.
The table which follows contains some of the measured IC.sub.50 values

The compounds of the formula I likewise have high activity in other test models with which it is possible to detect a calcium-antagonistic action, for example in the relaxant action on the previously contracted guinea pig ileum, in the action potential of the isolated guinea pig papillary muscle, or in the action on the coronary flow in the isolated guinea pig heart.
The compounds of the formula I, according to the invention, and their pharmacologically tolerated salts are active within a wide dose range. The level of the dose administered depends on the nature of the desired treatment, on the mode of administration, on the condition, on the type and on the size of the treated patient. On oral dosage, satisfactory results are achieved with doses of 0.01 mg upwards, preferably from 0.1 mg up to 100 mg, preferably up to 20 mg, of a compound of the formula I per kg of body weight. In humans the daily dose varies between 1 and 800 mg, preferably from 2 to 500 mg, it being possible to give single doses of from 0.5 to 200 mg, preferably once to three times a day. The dose for intravenous and intramuscular administration is 0.1 to 300 mg, preferably 0.5 to 150 mg, each day.
The pharmacologically utilizable compounds of the present invention, and their salts, can be used for the preparation of pharmaceutical products which contain an effective amount of the active substance together with vehicles, and which are suitable for enteral and parenteral administration. It is preferable to use tablets or gelatin capsules which contain the active substance together with diluents, for example lactose, dextrose, sucrose, mannitol, sorbitol, cellulose and/or glycine, and lubricants such as diatomaceous earth, talc, stearic acid or its salts, such as magnesium or calcium stearate, and/or polyethylene glycol. Tablets additionally contain binders such as magnesium aluminum silicate, starch, gelatin, tragacanth, methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose and/or polyvinylpyrrolidone and, if necessary, colorants, flavorings and sweeteners. Injectable solutions are preferably isotonic aqueous solutions or suspensions which can be sterilized and can contain auxiliaries such as preservatives, stabilizers, wetting agents and/or emulsifiers, solubilizers, salts to control the osmotic pressure and/or buffer substances. The pharmaceutical products according to the invention which, if desired, can contain additional pharmacologically valuable substances, are prepared, for example, by conventional mixing, granulating and coating processes and contain 0.1% to about 75%, preferably about 1% to about 50%, of the active substance.
The examples which follow are intended to illustrate the invention without confining it to these examples.





EXAMPLE 1
1-[4,4-bis(4-fluorophenyl)butyl]-4-[2-(4-chlorophenylthio)ethyl]piperazine
A solution of 1.15 g (8 mmol) of 4-chlorothiophenol in 20 ml of absolute dimethylformamide was slowly added dropwise to a suspension of 0.35 g of sodium hydride (55% dispersion in oil) in 8 ml of absolute dimethylformamide, and the mixture was heated at 40.degree. C. for one hour. After the evolution of gas had finished, the mixture was heated at 60.degree. C. for a short time, then cooled to room temperature and a solution of 3.05 g (7.7 mmol) of 1-[4,4-bis(4-fluorophenyl)butyl]-4-(2-chloroethyl)piperazine in 25 ml of absolute dimethylformamide was added, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 24 hours. The solution was added to 110 ml of 0.2N sodium hydroxide solution, the mixture was extracted with methylene chloride, the extract was dried over magnesium sulfate and concentrated, and the product was purified by column chromatography on silica gel (toluene/ethanol 9:1). Yield: 2.6 g (67%) of oily product. The crystalline dihydrochloride was obtained by dissolving this oil in ethyl acetate and treatment with ethereal HCl, melting point 244.degree. C. (decomposition).
