Heterocyclic compounds

The present invention relates to therapeutically active 2-azabicyclo-2.2.1 compounds having surprising potency and favorable side effect profile. The novel compounds are useful as stimulants of the cognitive function of the forebrain and hippocampus of mammals.
Due to the generally improved health situation in the western world, elderly-related diseases are much more common now than in the past and are likely to be even more common in the future.
One of the elderly-related symptoms is a reduction of the cognitive functions. This symptom is especially pronounced in the pathophysiological disease known as Alzheimer's disease. This disease is combined with, and also most likely caused by, an up to 90% degeneration of the muscarinic cholinergic neurons in nucleus basalis, which is part of substantia innominata. These neurons project to the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus and have a general stimulatory effect on the cognitive functions of the forebrain as well as of hippocampus, namely learning, association, consolidation, and recognition.
It is a characteristic of Alzheimer's disease that although the cholinergic neurons degenerate, the postsynaptic muscarinic receptors in the forebrain and hippocampus still exist. Therefore, muscarinic cholinergic agonists are useful in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, in halting its progression, and in improving the cognitive functions of elderly people.
Compounds active at a muscarinic cholinergic receptor are also useful analgesic agents and therefore are useful in the treatment of severely painful conditions.
Furthermore, muscarinic cholinergic receptor active compounds are useful in the treatment of glaucoma, psychosis, anxiety, mania, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia or schizophreniform conditions, depression, sleeping disorders, epilepsy, cerebral ischemia, and gastrointestinal motility disorders.
Therefore, new compounds having muscarinic cholinergic activity are desired. Some muscarinic cholinergic receptor active compounds are associated with side effects attributed to undesired modulation of the muscarinic cholinergic receptors, for example, such undesired modulation may cause excessive salivation and gastrointestinal upset. Thus, the most desired muscarinic cholinergic compounds shall have high potency and at the same time a favorable side effect profile, including a low incidence of excessive salivation.
The presently claimed compounds are surprisingly potent and also provide a favorable side effect profile. The observed characteristics of these compounds suggest that they will be especially desirable muscarinic receptor active compounds which can be useful pharmaceutically active agents.

When the G substituent contains a secondary nitrogen protected by a protecting group, the protecting group may be removed using standard methods known to the skilled artisan. An especially preferred protecting group is carbamate.

The concentration of the reactants is not critical. The art worker can alter the concentration of the reactants to achieve the desired rate of reaction and product yield.
The length of time for carrying out the processes described are not critical. As is always the case in chemistry, the rate of the reaction depends on a variety of factors, such as the temperature and the exact compound which is to be prepared. The course of the reaction may be followed using methods such as thin layer chromatography (TLC), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), gas chromatography (GC) and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) to detect the degree of completion of the reaction. The operator may obtain maximum yields using the process by extending the reaction time. Alternatively, the operator may wish to obtain maximum throughput by cutting off the reaction at the point at which it reaches an economical degree of completion.
When the product of a step in the following process is an oil, it may be isolated by standard methods. Such methods include distillation, flash chromatography, HPLC and the like.
As used herein the term "malfunctioning of the muscarinic cholinergic system" shall have the meaning accepted by the skilled artisan.

Other such conditions include Alzheimer's Disease and incontinence.
The pharmacological properties of the compounds of the invention can be illustrated by determining their capability to inhibit the specific binding of .sup.3 H-Oxotremorine-M (.sup.3 H-Oxo). Birdsdall N. J. M., Hulme E. C., and Burgen A. S. V. (1980). "The Character of Muscarinic Receptors in Different Regions of the Rat Brain". Proc. Roy. Soc. London (Series B) 207,1.
.sup.3 H-Oxo labels muscarinic receptor in the CNS (with a preference for agonist domains of the receptors). Three different sites are labeled by .sup.3 H-Oxo. These sites have affinity of 1.8, 20 and 3000 nM, respectively. Using the present experimental conditions only the high and medium affinity sites are determined.
The inhibitory effects of compounds on .sup.3 H-oxo binding reflects the affinity for muscarinic acetylcholine receptors.
All preparations are performed at 0-4.degree. C. unless otherwise indicated. Fresh cortex (0.1-1 g) from male Wistar rats (150-250 g) is homogenized for 5-10 seconds in 10 mL 20 nM Hepes pH: 7.4, with an Ultra-Turrax homogenizer. The homogenizer is rinsed with 10 mL of buffer and the combined suspension centrifuged for 15 min. at 40,000.times.g. The pellet is washed three times with buffer. In each step the pellet is homogenized as before in 2.times.10 mL of buffer and centrifuged for 10 min. at 40,000.times.g.
The final pellet is homogenized in 20 mM Hepes pH: 7.4 (100 mL per g of original tissue) and used for binding assay. Aliquots of 0.5 mL is added 25 .mu.L of test solution and 25 .mu.L of .sup.3 H-Oxotremorine (1.0 nM, final concentration) mixed and incubated for 30 min. at 25.degree. C. Non-specific binding is determined in triplicate using arecoline (1 .mu.g/mL, final concentration) as the test substance. After incubation samples are added 5 mL of ice-cold buffer and poured directly onto Whatman GF/C glass fiber filters under suction and immediately washed 2 times with 5 mL of ice-cold buffer. The amount of radioactivity on the filters are determined by conventional liquid scintillation counting. Specific binding is total binding minus non specific binding.
Test substances are dissolved in 10 mL water (if necessary heated on a steam-bath for less than 5 min.) at a concentration of 2.2 mg/mL. 25-75% inhibition of specific binding must be obtained before calculation of IC.sub.50. The test value will be given as IC.sub.50 (the concentration (nM) of the test substance which inhibits the specific binding of .sup.3 H-oxo by 50%). IC.sub.50 =(applied test substance concentration).times.(C.sub.x /C.sub.o -C.sub.x) nM where C.sub.o is specific binding in control assays and C.sub.x is the specific binding in the test assay. (The calculations assume normal mass-action kinetics).
Furthermore the pharmacological properties of the compounds of the invention can also be illustrated by determining their capability to inhibit .sup.3 HPRZ (pirenzepine, [N-methyl-.sup.3 H]) binding to rat cerebral cortex membranes.
Pirenzepine binds selectively to subtype of muscarinic receptors. Historically the type is named the M.sub.1 -site, whereas pirenzepine sensitive site would be more appropriate. Although selective for M.sub.1 -sites pirenzepine also interact with M.sub.2 -sites.
All preparations are performed at 0-4.degree. C. unless otherwise indicated. Fresh cortex (0.1-1 9) from male Wistar rats (150-200 g) is homogenized for 5-10 s in 10 mL 20 mM Hepes pH: 7.4, with an Ultra-Turrax homogenizer. The homogenizer is rinsed with 2'10 mL of buffer and the combined suspension centrifuged for 15 min. at 40,000.times.g. The pellet is washed three times with buffer. In each step the pellet is homogenized as before in 3.times.10 mL of buffer and centrifuged for 10 min. at 40,000.times.g.
The final pellet is homogenized in 20 mM Hepes pH: 7.4 (100 mL per g of original tissue) and used for binding assay. Aliquots of 0.5 mL is added 20 .mu.l of test solution and 25 .mu.L of .sup.3 HPRZ (1.0 nM, final conc.), mixed and incubated for 60 min. at 20.degree. C. Non-specific binding is determined in triplicate using atropine (1 ,.mu.g/mL, final conc.) as the test substance. After incubation samples are added 5 mL of ice-cold buffer and poured directly onto Whatman GF/C glass fiber filters under suction and immediately washed 2 times with 5 mL of ice-cold buffer. The amount of radioactivity on the filters are determined by conventional liquid scintillation counting. Specific binding is total binding minus non-specific binding.
Test substances are dissolved in 10 mL water, at a concentration of 0.22 mg/mL. 25-75% inhibition of specific binding must be obtained before calculation of IC.sub.50.

Additionally, the pharmacological activity and tendency to produce salivation can be determined using the following methods:
Stimulation of phosphoinositol hydrolysis in A9 L-m1 cells:
A9-L-m1 cells were cultured to confluence in 75 mL flasks containing Dubecco's modified essential media. Cells were prelabeled with 1 .mu.Ci/mL of myo[2-3H]inositol (Amersham Inc, 16.3 Ci/mmol) for 48 h prior to assay. On the day of assay, cells were detached using a 30 s exposure to 0.25% trypsin in 1 mM EDTA. The cells were collected by centrifugation (300.times.g for 5 min) and resuspended in oxygenated HEPES buffer containing 10 mM LiCl, 142 mM NaCl, 5.6 mM KCl, 2.2 mM CaCl.sub.2, 1 mM MgCl.sub.2, 3.6 mM NaHCO.sub.3, 5.6 mM D-glucose, and 30 mM sodium HEPES at pH 7.4. Cells were incubated at 37 C for 45 min in the presence of varying concentrations of drug. The reaction was terminated by the addition of 3 mL of ice cold 10 mM LiCl, sonicated, and centrifugated at 20,000.times.g. The supernatent was decanted over a Accell QMA anion exchange SEP-PAK cartridge in the formate form (Waters Associates, Milford, Mass.). The cartridges were washed with 10 mL of H.sub.2 O followed by 10 mL of 5 mM sodium borate. [3H]PI was eluted directly into scintillation vials for counting with 4 mL of 0.1 ammonium formate/0.01 mM formic acid/5 mM sodium borate. Data is expressed as the percent of total [3H]PI stimulated in the presence of 1 mM carbachol. Half-maximal values (EC50) were determined from the mean of seven point curves using a four parameter logistic model.
Salivation in mice:
Mice weighing 20 to 30 g were used for salivation testing. Mice, in groups of five, were injected i.p. with 10 mg/kg doses of compound dissolved in distilled water. After, 30 min, salivation and tremor were scored on a scale of 0, 1, or 2, where 0=no effect, 1=moderate salivation or tremor, and 2=marked salivation or tremor. Those compounds producing an average score of 1 were tested at half log lower doses until a score lower than 1 was achieved. The lowest dose of compound producing a score of 1 was expressed at the minimum effective dose (MED).

The compounds of the invention are effective over a wide dosage range. For example, in the treatment of adult humans, dosages from about 0.05 to about 100 mg, preferably from about 0.1 to about 100 mg, per day may be used. A most preferable dosage is about 0.1 mg to about 70 mg per day. In choosing a regimen for patients suffering from diseases in the central nervous system caused by malfunctioning of the muscarinic cholinergic system it may frequently be necessary to begin with a dosage of from about 20 to about 70 mg per day and when the condition is under control to reduce the dosage as low as from about 0.1 to about 10 mg per day. The exact dosage will depend upon the mode of administration, form in which administered, the subject to be treated and the body weight of the subject to be treated, and the preference and experience of the physician or prescribing caregiver in charge.
The route of administration may be any route, which effectively transports the active compound to the appropriate or desired site of action, such as oral or parenteral e.g. rectal, transdermal, depot, subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular or intranasal, the oral route being preferred.
Typical compositions include a compound of formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof, associated with a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient which may be a carrier, or a diluent or be diluted by a carrier, or enclosed within a carrier which can be in the form of a capsule, sachet, paper, or other container. In making the compositions, conventional techniques for the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions may be used. For example, the active compound will usually be mixed with a carrier, or diluted by a carrier, or enclosed within a carrier which may be in the form of a ampoule, capsule, sachet, paper, or other container. When the carrier serves as a diluent, it may be solid, semi-solid, or liquid material which acts as a vehicle, excipient, or medium for the active compound. The active compound can be adsorbed on a granular solid container for example in a sachet. Some examples of suitable carriers are water, salt solutions, alcohols, polyethylene glycols, polyhydroxyethoxylated castor oil, gelatine, lactose, amylose, magnesium stearate, talc, silicic acid, fatty acid monoglycerides and diglycerides, pentaerythritol fatty acid esters, hydroxymethylcellulose and polyvinylpyrrolidone. The formulations may also include wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, preserving agents, sweetening agents, or flavoring agents. The formulations of the invention may be formulated so as to provide quick, sustained, or delayed release of the active ingredient after administration to the patient by employing procedures well known in the art.
The pharmaceutical preparations can be sterilized and mixed, if desired, with auxiliary agents, emulsifiers, salt for influencing osmotic pressure, buffers and/or coloring substances and the like, which do not deleteriously react with the active compounds.
For parenteral application, particularly suitable are injectable solutions or suspensions, preferably aqueous solutions with the active compound dissolved in polyhydroxylated castor oil.
Tablets, dragees, or capsules having talc and/or a carbohydrate carrier or binder or the like are particularly suitable for oral application. Preferable carriers for tablets, dragees, or capsules include lactose, corn starch, and/or potato starch. A syrup or elixir can be used in cases where a sweetened vehicle can be employed.
Generally, the compounds are dispensed in unit form comprising from about 0.1 to about 100 mg in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier per unit dosage.
The compounds of this invention may be suitable for administration to an animal. Such animals include both domestic animals, for example livestock, laboratory animals, and household pets, and non-domestic animals such as wildlife. More preferredly, the animal is a vertebrate. Most preferredly, a compound of this invention shall be administered to a mammal. It is especially preferred that the animal is a domestic mammal or a human. The most preferred mammal is a human. For such purposes, a compound of this invention may be administered as a feed additive.

EXAMPLE 43
To a solution of an alcohol or an aliphatic thiol (0.5 mmol, 2 equiv.) in 4.0 mL of anhydrous THF contained in a 8 mL vial was added 1 mL of a 0.5 M mixture of potassium tert-butoxide (0.5 mmol, 2 equiv.) in THF. The vial was capped, briefly shaken and then cooled to around 0.sub.-- C in an aluminum block. The vial was uncapped, a solution of sulfone (0.25 mmol, 1 equiv.) in THF was quickly added and then the vial was immediately recapped. The reaction mixture was shaken at ambient temperature overnight and was then added directly to 12 mL of a 30% solution of TFA in chloroform. After shaking overnight and concentrated under vacuum, the resulting residue was placed overnight in a vacuum oven with light heating (50.degree. C). The residue was then re dissolved in a 15% solution of methanol in chloroform and passed through a Varion SAX ion exchange column (1 g, 6 mL column) which had been pretreated by washing with 1 N NaOH (20 mL) and methanol (8 mL). The resulting filtrate (total volume 12 mL) was then passed through a Varion SCX ion exchange column (1 g, 3 mL column). The column was washed 3-4.times. with 3.0 mL portions of MeOH and the product eluted from the column using four 2 mL portions (8 mL total) of a 20% solution of sat. HCl.MeOH (or sat. HCl ethanol)/CHCl.sub.3. Concentration in a speed vac provided the hydrochloride salts of the products which were submitted for testing without further purification.
The following compounds were prepared using the same procedure as described above by using the appropriate starting materials.
