Hydroxamic acid based collagenase inhibitors

This invention relates to pharmaceutically and veterinarily active compounds, which are derivatives of hydroxamic acid.
The compounds of the present invention act as inhibitors of metalloproteases involved in tissue degradation, such as collagenase, which initiates collagen breakdown, stromelysin (protoglycanase), gelatinase and collagenase (IV). There is evidence implicating collagenase as one of the key enzymes in the breakdown of articular cartilage and bone in rheumatoid arthritis (Arthritis and Rheumatism, 20, 1231-1239, 1977). Potent inhibitors of collagenase and other metalloproteases involved in tissue degradation are useful in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and related diseases in which collagenolytic activity is important. Inhibitors of metalloproteases of this type can therefore be used in treating or preventing conditions which involve tissue breakdown; they are therefore useful in the treatment of arthropathy, dermatological conditions, bone resorption, inflammatory diseases and tumour invasion and in the promotion of wound healing. Specifically, compounds of the present invention may be useful in the treatment of osteopenias such as osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, periodontitis, gingivitis, corneal ulceration and tumour invasion.
A number of small peptide like compounds which inhibit metalloproteases have been described. Perhaps the most notable of these are those relating to the angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) where such agents act to block the conversion of the decapeptide angiotensin I to angiotensin II a potent pressor substance. Compounds of this type are described in EP-A-0012401.
Certain hydroxamic acids have been suggested as collagenase inhibitors as in U.S. Pat. No. 4,599,361 and EP-A-0236872. Other hydroxamic acids have been prepared as ACE inhibitors, for example in U.S. Pat. No. 4,105,789, while still others have been described as enkephalinase inhibitors as in U.S. Pat. No. 4,496,540.

Tablets and capsules for oral administration may be in unit dose presentation form, and may contain conventional excipients such as binding agents, for example syrup, acacia, gelatin, sorbitol, tragacanth, or polyvinyl-pyrrollidone; fillers for example lactose, sugar, maize-starch, calcium phosphate, sorbitol or glycine; tableting lubricant, for example magnesium sterate, talc, polyethylene glycol or silica; disintegrants, for example potato starch, or acceptable wetting agents such as sodium lauryl sulphate. The tablets may be coated according to methods well known in normal pharmaceutical practice.
Oral liquid preparations may be in the form of, for example, aqueous or oily suspensions, solutions, emulsions, syrups or elixirs, or may be presented as a dry product for reconstitution with water or other suitable vehicle before use. Such liquid preparations may contain conventional additives such as suspending agents, for example sorbitol, syrup, methyl cellulose, glucose syrup, gelatin, hydrogenated edible fats; emulsifying agents, for example lecithin, sorbitan monooleate, or acacia; non-aqujeous vehicles (which may include edible oils), for example almond oil, fractionated coconut oil, oily esters such as glycerine, propylene glycol, or ethyl alcohol; preservatives, for example methyl or propyl p-hydroxybenzoate or sorbic acid, and if desired conventional flavouring or colouring agents.
The dosage unit involved in oral administration may contain from about 1 to 250 mg, preferably from about 25 to 250 mg, of a compound of general formula I. A suitable daily dose for a mammal may vary widely depending on the condition of the patient and will ultimately depend on the judgement of the physician or veterinarian. However, a dose of a compound of general formula I of about 0.1 to 300 mg/kg body weight, particularly from about 1 to 100 mg/kg body weight may be appropriate.
For topical application to the skin the drug may be made up into a cream, lotion or ointment. Cream or ointment formulations that may be used for the drug are conventional formulations well known in the art, for example, as described in standard text books of pharmaceutics such as the British Pharmacopoeia.
For topical applications to the eye, the drug may be made up into a solution or suspension in a suitable sterile aqueous or non-aqueous vehicle. Additives, for instance buffers such as sodium metabisulphite or disodium edeate; preservatives including bactericidal and fungicidal agents, such as phenyl mercuric acetate or nitrate, benzalkonium chloride or chlorohexidine, and thickening agents such as hypromellose may also be included.
The dosage employed for the topical administration will, of course, depend on the size of the area being treated. For the eyes each dose will be typically in the range from 10 to 100 mg of the compound of general formula I.
The active ingredient may also be administered parenterally in a sterile medium. The drug depending on the vehicle and concentration used, can either be suspended or dissolved in the vehicle. Advantageously, adjuvants such as a local anaesthetic, preservative and buffering agents can be dissolved in the vehicle.
For use in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis the compounds of this invention can be administered by the oral route or by injection intra-articularly into the affected joint. The daily dosage for a 70 kg mammal will be in the range of 10 mgs to 1 gram of a compound of general formula I.

EXAMPLE 1
4-(N-Hydroxyamino)-2R-isobutylsuccinyl!-L-phenylalanine-N- (2-aminoethyl)-2(RS)-(1-methylpyrrolidine)!amide ##STR29##
(a) 4-Benzyloxy-3-benzyloxycarbonyl-2R-isobutylsuccinyl!-L-phenylalanine methyl ester
Benzyl (2-benzyloxycarbonyl-5-methyl-3R-tert-butoxycarbonyl)-hexanoate (52 g, 115 mmol) was stirred at room temperature with 5% water in TFA (250 ml) for 1.5 h. After this time the TFA was evaporated under reduced pressure then the residue was azeotroped with toluene (3.times.250 ml).
The crude acid from this reaction was dissolved in DCM/DMF (4:1), then HOBT (16 g, 118 mmol), NMM (12 g, 118 mmol) and WSCDI (22 g, 115 mmol) were added at room temperature. After 20 minutes a further equivalent of NMM (12 g, 118 mmol) was added followed by L-phenylalanine methyl ester hydrochloride (23 g, 107 mmol). This solution was stirred overnight and then concentrated under vacuum. The oily residue was dissolved in DCM then washed with 10% citric acid (2.times.250 ml), with 10% sodium bicarbonate (2.times.250 ml) and once with saturated brine (250 ml). The organic layer was dried (sodium sulphate), filtered then the solvent removed under reduced pressure to give the title compound as an oil (50.9 g, 79%).

(b) Hydroxy-2R-isobutylsuccinyl!-L-phenylalanine methyl ester
The product from above (50.9 g, 91 mmol) was dissolved in ethanol (100 ml) and stirred at room temperature with activated charcoal pellets for 1 h. 10% Palladium on charcoal (20 g) in ethyl acetate was slurried into the ethanolic solution. Cyclohexene (20 ml) in ethanol (100 ml) was added and the mixture was brought to reflux for 5 h. The reaction mixture was filtered to remove the catalyst then the solvents evaporated under reduced pressure to leave a yellow oil (29.8 g). This oil was taken up in xylene (500 ml) and heated at reflux for 10 minutes. The xylene was removed under reduced pressure to leave the crude material as an oil (26.5 g).
(c) 4-(N-Benzyloxyamino)-2R-isobutylsuccinyl!-L-phenylalanine methyl ester
The crude acid (26.5 g, 79 mmol) was dissolved in DCM/DMF (4:1, 500 ml), then NMM (9.6 g, 95 mmol), HOBT (12.8 g 95 mmol) and WSCDI (18.2 g, 95 mmol) added and the mixture stirred at room temperature until tlc indicated complete conversion to the activated ester (about 10 minutes). To this solution containing the active ester was added benzylhydroxylamine hydrochloride (15.2 g, 95 mmol) and a further equivalent of NMM (9.6 g, 95 mmol) in the solvent mixture (80 ml). After stirring at room temperature overnight DCM (250 ml) was added then the mixture washed with citric acid (2.times.250 ml), 10% sodium bicarbonate solution (2.times.250 ml) and brine (250 ml) then finally dried over sodium sulphate. The solution was filtered and the solvent removed under reduced pressure to give an oil (27.2 g) which was purified by column chromatography using ether as an eluant to give the title compound (11 g, 23.7 mmol, 30%).

(d) 4-(N-Benzyloxyamino)-2R-isobutylsuccinyl!-L-phenylalanine
4-(N-Benzyloxyamino)-2R-isobutylsuccinyl!-L-phenylalanine methyl ester (9.5 g, 21 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (200 ml) and lithium hydroxide solution (0.5N, 84 ml, 42 mmol) was added with stirring at room temperature. When the reaction was complete, as judged from tlc, the methanol was removed by evaporation and the remaining aqueous phase was acidified to pH1 with citric acid. The precipitated solid was filtered off and dried, while the fitrate was extracted with DCM (500 ml) and dried over sodium sulphate. Solvent removal from the organic phase left an oil (5.38 g) which could be recrystallised from diisopropyl ether and methanol to give material which was identical with the solid which precipitated during acidification. These two batches were combined to give the title compound (6.40 g, 15 mmol, 71%)

4-(N-Benzyloxyamino)-2R-isobutylsuccinyl!-L-phenylalanine (200 mg, 0.47 mmol) was dissolved in THF (6 ml) and cooled in ice. Triethylamine (52 mg, 0.522 mmol) was added together with ethylchloroformate (50 mg, 0.47 mmol) and after 10 minutes 2-(2-aminoethyl)-N-methylpyrrolidine (67 mg, 0.522 mmol) in THF (1 ml) was added. After 3 h at room temperature the reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate then washed with sodium bicarbonate solution and brine, then dried over sodium sulphate. Solvent removal under reduced pressure gave the crude benzyl hydroxamate (220 mg, 0.41 mmol).
The crude material from above was dissolved in cyclohexene/ethanol (10% solution, 5 ml), 10% palladium on charcoal (50 mg) was added then the mixture refluxed until starting material had dissappeared by tlc (ca 30 minutes). The catalyst was removed by filtration, and the solvent removed under reduced pressure to leave an oil which could be crystallised by the addition of hexane. The required product (150 mg, 0.34 mmol, 72%) was collected by fitration.

D-Leucine (100 g, 0.76 mol) and potassium bromide (317.5 g, 2.67 mol) were dissolved in aqueous acid (150 ml concentrated sulphuric acid in 500 ml of water). The solution was cooled to just below 0.degree. and sodium nitrite (69.6 g, 0.95 mol in water) was added over 1 h taking care to maintain the temperature between -1.degree. and -2.degree.. After addition was complete the mixture was kept at 0.degree. for a further hour, then DCM was added and the mixture stirred for a few minutes. The layers were separated and the aqeous phase was washed with further portions of DCM (5.times.250 ml). The combined organic layers were dried over magnesium sulphate then the solvent removed to give the acid as a pale yellow oil (123.1 g, 0.63 mol, 83%)

c) Benzyl (2-benzloxycarbonyl-3R-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-5-methylhexanoate
Dibenzyl malonate (124.5 g, 0.44 mol) was taken up in dry DMF and potassium tert-butoxide (49.2 g, 0.44 mol) was added portionwise with stirring and cooling. When a homogeneous solution had formed it was cooled to 0.degree. then tert-butyl-2R-bromo-5-methylpentanoate (110.0 g, 0.44 mol) in DMF (200 ml) was added dropwise over 1 h. When addition was complete the reaction was transfered to a cold room at <5.degree. and left for 4 days. The reaction mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate and saturated ammonium chloride then the aqueous layer extracted with further ethyl acetate (4.times.500 ml), drying and solvent removal left an oil (228 g) heavily contaminated with DMF. This oil was taken into ether (1 liter) and washed with brine (2.times.11) then the organic layer dried (magnesium sulphate), solvent removed to leave the desired material (179 g) contaminated with a small amount of dibenzyl malonate.

d) 4-Benzyloxy-3-benzyloxycarbonyl-2R-isobutylsuccinyl!-L-phenylalanine-N-(3-aminomethylpyridine) amide
Benzyl (2-benzyloxycarbonyl-5-methyl-3R-tert-butoxycarbonyl)hexanoate (40 g) was taken up in 5% water in TFA (105 ml) and allowed to stand at 5.degree. overnight. After this time the TFA was evaporated under reduced pressure then the residue partitioned between DCM (250 ml) and brine (50 ml). Solvent removal left an oil which crystallised on standing (30 g).
The crude acid from this reaction was dissolved in DMF (250 ml), then HOBT (13.5 g, 90 mmol), NMM (9.1 g, 90 mmol) and phenylalanine-N-(3-aminomethylpyridine) amide (23 g, 90 mmol) were added at room temperature. The mixture was cooled to 0.degree. before dropwise addition of DCC (18.5 g, 90 mmol) in THF (250 ml). This solution was stirred to room temperature over the weekend. The precipitated DCU was removed by filtration then the solvents were removed from the filtrate under reduced pressure to leave an oil. This oily residue was dissolved in ethyl acetate then washed with 10% citric acid, 10% sodium bicarbonate and saturated brine. The organic layer was dried (magnesium sulphate), filtered then the solvent removed under reduced pressure to give the title compound as an oil (73 g). This material was columned on silica using gradient elution (0-50% ethyl acetate in hexane) to remove impurities and separate a small amount of the minor diastereoisomer. The material from the column (29.0 g, 61%) was recrystallised from ethanol/DIPE to give the title compound as a white crystalline solid (17.1 g)
e) 4-Hydroxy-2R-isobutyl-3-ethenylsuccinyl!-L-phenylalanine-N-(3-aminomethylpyridine) amide
4-Benzyloxy-3-benzyloxycarbonyl-2R-isobutylsuccinyl!-L-phenylalanine-N-(3-aminomethylpyridine) amide (5 g, 7.9 mmol) was taken up in ethanol, ammonium formate (2.5 g, 40 mmol) added followed by 10% palladium on charcoal (1 g) as a slurry in isopropyl alcohol. After 30 minutes at room temperature the catalyst was removed by filtration, then washed with ethanol to give a solution of the crude diacid. To this was added piperidine (1 g) and the mixture stirred at room temperature for 15 minutes before addition of aqueous formaldehyde (40% solution, 5 ml). After 18 hours at room temperature the mixture was refluxed for 1 h. Solvents were removed by rotary evaporation and the residue partitioned between ethyl acetate and citric acid. The acid layer was extracted with further portions of ethyl acetate (2.times.250 ml), the combined organic layers were extracted with potassium carbonate (3.times.200 ml). These base extracts were acidified to pH 4 and re-extracted with DCM then the organic layer dried over magnesium sulphate. Solvent removal under reduced pressure gave the desired product as a white solid (2.55 g, 77%).
f) 4-Hydroxy-2R-isobutyl-3S-(phenylthiomethyl)succinyl!-L-phenylalanine-N-(3-aminomethylpyridine) amide
4-Hydroxy-2R-isobuty-3-ethenylsuccinyl!-L-phenylalanine-N-(3-aminomethylpyridine) amide (1 g, 2.4 mmol) was dissolved in thiophenol (10 ml) and the mixture stirred in the dark under nitrogen at 60.degree. overnight. Ether was added to the cooled reaction mixture and the precipitated product collected by filtration. The solvent was washed with large volumes of ether and dried under vacuum to give the title compound (650 mg, 51%).
g) 4-(N-Hydroxyamino)-2R-isobutyl-3S-(phenylthiomethyl)succinyl!-L-phenylalanine-N-(3-aminomethylpyridine amide
4-Hydroxy-2R-isobutyl-3S-phenylthiomethyl succinyl!-L-phenylalanine-N-(2-methylpyridyl) amide (0,2 g, 0.4 mmol) and HOBT (0.07 g, 0.5 mmol) were dissolved in 1:1 DCM/DMF and the mixture cooled to 0.degree. C. before adding WSDCI (0.09 g, 0.5 mmol) and NMM (0.05 g, 0.5 mmol). The mixture was stirred at 0.degree. C. for 1 h to ensure complete formation of the activated ester. Hydroxylamine hydrochloride (0.04 g, 0.6 mmol) and NMM (0.06 g, 0.6 mmol) were dissolved in DMF then this mixture was added dropwise to the cooled solution of the activated ester. After 1 h the reaction was poured into ether/water (1:1) whereupon the desired product precipitated as white crystals. These were collected by filtration, further washed with ether and water, then dried under vacuum at 50.degree. C. This material was recrystallised from methanol/water (1:1) to remove a trace of the minor diastereomer (0.1 g, 0.2 mmol, 48%).
