Imidazolylethoxyindanes and use as antithrombotic agents

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to novel imidazolylethoxyindanes which have an effective antithrombotic activity, its pharmacologically-acceptable salts, and process for preparing the same.
More particularly, the present invention relates to novel imidazolylethoxyindanes represented by the general formula (I), ##STR2## wherein X is a C.dbd.O group, a CH--CN group or a CH--COOH group, and the ether group (--O--) is bonded to the indanic group in the 4-, 5- or 6-position thereof, its pharmacologically-acceptable salts and process for preparing the same.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
U.K. Pat. No. 2,038,821 discloses, among other compounds, 4-[2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethoxy]benzoic acid (Dazoxiben) represented by the formula (A), ##STR3##
Dazoxiben belongs to an interesting group of antithrombotic imidazoles which are characterised by their ability to selectively inhibit the thromboxane synthetase enzyme without significantly inhibiting the prostacyclin formation unlike conventional antithrombotic drugs, such as acetylsalicylic acid (B), ##STR4##
However, the clinical use of Dazoxiben does not seem to be a decisive therapy for thrombotic diseases.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present inventors studied therefore for finding out a more effective antithrombotic agent, and discovered that the compounds represented by the above-mentioned formula (I) showed, in addition to an important protection against mortality and respiratory distress induced by sodium arachiodonate which is evident for thrombosane synthetase imidazone inhibitors, an exceptional ability to inhibit the formation of thrombi by a physiological agent, adenosine diphosphate (ADP), and surpasses the action of Dazoxiben.
The present invention is based on this finding.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Pharmacologically-acceptable salts of the compounds having the said formula (I) are acid addition salts. Acid addition salts include mineral acid salts such as hydrochloride, sulfate, nitrate, hydrobromide, hydroiodide, phosphate, etc.; or organic acid salts such as acetate, maleate, fumarate, citrate or tartarate, etc.
Non-limiting examples of the compounds of this invention include:
(1) 5-[.beta.-(1H-Imidazol-1-yl)ethoxy]-1-indanone
(2) 1-Cyano-5-[.beta.-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethoxy]indane
(3) 5-[.beta.-(1H-Imidazol-1-yl)ethoxy]indan-1-carboxylic acid hydrochloride
(4) 4-.beta.-(1H-Imidazol-1-yl)ethoxy]-1-indanone
(5) 1-Cyano-4-[.beta.-(1H-Imidazol-1-yl)ethoxy[indane
(6) 4-[.beta.-(1H-Imidazol-1-yl)ethoxy]indan-1-carboxylic acid hydrochloride
(7) 6-[.beta.-(1H-Imidazol-1-yl)ethoxy]-1-indanone
(8) 1-Cyano-6-[.beta.-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethoxy]indane
(9) 6-[.beta.-(1H-Imidazol-1-yl)ethoxy]indan-1-carboxylic acid hydrochloride
According to the present invention the novel compounds, imidazolylethoxyindanes, represented by the general formula (I) can be prepared by the following method: ##STR5##
The hydroxylated indanones of general formula (II) are subjected to alkylation with a reagent of general formula Y-(CH.sub.2).sub.2 -O-Z, wherein Y is an halogen atom selected from chlorine or bromine, and Z is a migrant group selected from alkylsulfonyl or arylsulfonyl groups. The applicants have found out that this reaction conveniently occurs when Y is chlorine and Z is a p-toluensulfonyl group, in a strong basic medium preferably an alkaline alcoxide dissolved in an alcohol having 4 carbon atoms at most, such as sodium ethoxide, and at the boiling temperature of the mixture. In addition to Y=chlorine and Z=p-toluenesulfonyl, other groups are also preferred, namely, Y=bromine and Z=ethanesulfonyl, methanesulfonyl, benzenesulfonyl and the like.
The alkylation of imidazole with haloethoxide-indanones of the general formula (III), prepared as above described, occurs in the presence of a base strong enough as to ionize the imidazole molecule; alkaline hydrides, preferably sodium hydride, are suitable for this purpose. The reaction procedure requires an inert and aprotic solvent, preferably N,N-dimethylformamide, and a suitable temperature ranging from 60.degree. C. to the boiling point of the mixture.
The so obtained imidazolylethoxyindanones of general formula (I, X: C.dbd.O) are subject to react with (p-toluenesulfonyl)methyl-isocyanide in a ether-like solvent, preferably dimethoxyethane, and in the presence of a strong base, preferably an alkaline alcoxide dissolved in an alcohol having 4 carbon atoms at most, such as sodium ethoxide in ethanol, and at a temperature ranging from -10.degree. to 40.degree. C. Thus, the carbonitriles of general formula (I, X: CH--CN) are obtained.
Then, the acid hydrolysis of the carbonitriles prepared as above described, preferably at boiling temperature of the mixture, leads to the respective acids of general formula (I, X: CH--COOH).
The reaction of the compounds of general formula (I) with acids leads to respective addition salts, being hydrochlorides preferred. Suitable solvents for the preparation of these salts are, for instance, water, acetone, alcohols having 4 carbon atoms at most or a mixture thereof.
The starting hydroxylated indanones (II) may be prepared according to either conventional methods in Organic Chemistry or specific procedures disclosed in the literature. Consequently, 5-hydroxy-1-indanone was prepared by demethylation of 5-methoxy-1-indanone (commercially available) with aluminum bromide dissolved in dry methylene chloride under reflux (Example 13): ##STR6## In contrast, 4-hydroxy-1-indanone was prepared from coumarin (commercially available) by hydrogenation followed by internal Friedel-Craft's reaction (Rev.Soc.Quim.Mex., 11, 39, 1967; Ni-Raney preparation: J.Org.Chem., 26, 1625, 1961): ##STR7## 6-Hydroxy-1-indanone was prepared from 3-(4-methoxyphenyl)propionic acid (commercially available) by internal Friedel-Crafts' reaction (J.Am.Chem.Soc., 67, 1853, 1945) followed by demethylation with aluminum bromide dissolved in benzene under reflux (U.S. Pat. No. 2,820,817): ##STR8##
ANTITHROMBOTIC ACTIVITY
The compounds of the present invention have an effective antithrombotic activity as evidenced by their protective action against mortality and respiratory distress induced by endovenous sodium arachidonate in mice (Kohler C. et al: Thrombosis Research, 9, 67-80, 1976). It was observed in this test the specific activity of 5-[.beta.(1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethoxy]-indan-1-carboxylic acid hydrochloride showing 13.3 mg/kg DE.sub.50 orally. Moreover, these compounds inhibit the in vitro platelet aggregation induced by ADP at 10 .mu.M concentration in rat's richly-platelet plasma. Under these conditions, the IC.sub.50 of 5-[.beta.-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethoxy]indan-1-carboxylic acid is 2.5-5.times.10.sup.-4 M. On the other hand, when used ADP, as an aggregating agent, at a concentration of 2.5 .mu.M in total blood of rats in vitro, an IC.sub.50 of 7.1.times.10.sup.-4 M was obtained for 5-[.beta.-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethoxy]indan-1-carboxylic acid while Dazoxiben HCl at this concentration only caused a 30% inhibition.
Upon consideration of these properties, the compounds of this invention are useful agents in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, such as thrombosis, coronary contractions, arrhythmias, ischaemic cerebral attack, migraine, myocardial infarction, angina pectoris and hypertension; repiratory disorders, e.g. asthma and apnea; and inflammatory conditions of organs and limbs. These compounds, due to their antithrombotic properties, reduce metastasis in a large number of tumors.
The compounds of the present invention mixed with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers can be administered by the oral route in the form of tablets, capsules, coated tablets, syrups, solutions, etc., by injectable route and by rectal route at daily doses ranging from 0.01 to 200 mg/kg.
The novel features which are considered characteristic of the invention are set forth in particular in the appended claims. The invention itself, however, both as to its construction and its method of operation, together with additional objects and advantages thereof, will best understood from the following description of specific embodiments.
