Inositol phosphate analogues as calcium-antagonistic substances

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention.
The subject of this invention is a novel group of inositol-phosphat derivatives and their use as calcium-antagonistic compounds for different pharmacological uses such as for the treatment of cardio-vascular diseases.
2. Description of the Prior Art
It is now generally accepted that hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol(4.5)bisphosphate (PIP2) by receptor- and G-protein mediated activation of PIP2-specific phospholipase C (PIP2-PLC) results in the formation of two different second messengers in the cytoplasm of cells: d-myo inositol(1.4.5)trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol. IP3 can bind to an appropriate receptor on intracellular organelles causing release of Calcium. Two metabolic pathways terminate this receptor-mediated Calcium release: a) the action of an IP3-3-kinase, phosphorylating the 3-position leading to Inositol (1.3.4.5) tetrakisphosphate (IP4) and b) the action of an IP3-5-phosphatase leading to Inositol(1.4)bisphosphate. Since the cell is expending energy in form of ATP to generate IP4, IP4 is considered to be a putative second messenger, possibly regulating further steps in the Calcium-Metabolism of cells (M. J. Berridge, (1987) Ann. Rev. Biochem. 56, 159-193; and M. J. Berridge and R. F. Irvine, (1989) Nature 341, 197-205). The importance of IP3 as a Calcium mobilizing intracellular second messenger has lead to the synthesis of IP3 and derivatives thereof.
Preparation of Phosphorothioates acting as long-lived agonists have been described (A. M. Cooke et al., (1987) J. Chem. Soc. Chem. Commun. 1525-1526; and J. Strupish et al., (1988) Biochem. J. 253, 901-905). However, there have been no reports in IP3-analogues acting as IP3-receptor- and therefore intracellular Calcium-antagonists. In addition, analogues of IP4 acting as long lived agonists or antagonists, are not available yet.
It is an object of this invention, to describe the synthesis of specific IP3-, IP4- and PIP/PIP2-Analogues modified at the 5-Position. A further surprising aspect of this invention is to describe antagonists of the IP3-receptor, acting as intracellular Calcium-antagonists. These substances Can generally be used as highly active pharmacological compounds, especially they can be used as antithrombotic agents and in a variety of other cardiovascular diseases.

Another part of the invention is the general synthesis of inositol phosphate derivatives of the formula (I) starting with myo-inositol derivatives like for instance a 3,6-di-O-allyl-1-2-O-cyclohexylidene-myo-inositol (1), proceeding through synthesis of e.g. 3,6-di-O-allyl-4-O-benzyl-1,2-O-cyclohexylidene-myo-inositol (2b) (the respective numbering using the 1-position of the natural Inositol(1.4.5)trisphosphate would be 1,4-di-O-allyl-6-O-benzyl-2,3-O-cyclohexylidene-myo-inositol). Through a series of protection and deprotection steps which are generally known to a person skilled in this field, using protection of the 5-position with e.g. a --)-p-methoxybenzyl-group, 5-position analogues of both Inositol(1.4.5)trisphosphate and Inositol(1.3.4.5)-tetrakisphosphate can be synthesized.
The compounds of formula (I) can act as calcium-antagonists.
Accordingly, these compounds (inositol phosphate analogues) administered in the appropriate formulation and appropriate dosis, can act as different pharmacological agents, e.g. as antithrombotic agents. Since contraction of smooth muscles also depend on intracellular release of Calcium, vasorelaxant effects of the compounds can be used to treat diseases like hypertension. General calcium-antagonistic effects of the compounds can be exploited to treat diseases like Asthma, Cardiomyopathy, Atherosclerosis, Ischemia (Heart and Brain) and Inflammatory Diseases.
The compounds can be applied in the appropriate dosis, preferably 0.01-100 mg/kg, either orally, intranasally, intraperitoneally, intravenously, topically, or subcutaneously. Dosis and application depends on the species, preferably mammals, bodyweight and age.
Pharmaceutical preparations contain an effective amount of the compound together with a suitable vehicle like e.g. a compatible inorganic or organic carrier. The usual additions for the respective oral, intravenous, topical etc. applications can be used.

The invention is further illustrated by the following examples. In the experimental part the synthesis is outlined by the following schemes A, B and C. ##STR11##

Pharmacological activity of the compound of example 1
The activity of myo-inositol 5-methylphosphonate 1.4-bisphosphate (IP2-5-MP) as a Calcium antagonist in human platelets is shown as follows.
Human platelets were purified in the presence of citrate by differential centrifugation and resuspended to ca 1.times.10exp9 cells/ml in Tyrode-HEPES-(N-2-hydroxyethyl-piperazine-N'-2 ethane-sulfonic acid)-buffer pH 7.4 containing 0.2% w/v Bovine Serum Albumin and 1 mM EGTA (Ethylene Glycol Bis (.beta.-Aminoethyl Ether)N,N,N',N'-Tetraacidic acid). After 20 min, the platelets were centrifuged again (700.times.g, 20 min) and resuspended to the same concentration in 4 ml of "assay-buffer" containing:
110 mM Potassiumchloride
1.2 mM Potassiumdihydrogenphosphate
5 mM Potassiumsuccinate
5 mM Potassiumpyruvate
5 mM Potassium-ATP
6.8 mM Magnesiumchloride
9.8 U/ml Creatine kinase
12 mM Creatine phosphate
25 mM HEPES-buffer, pH as indicated
After a further 30 min, the platelet suspension was diluted 5-fold into assay-buffer containing 2 .mu.M Quin2 (2-[[2-[bis(carboxymethyl)amino]-5-methyl-phenoxy]methyl]-6-methoxy-8-[bis(.beta.-aminoethyl)amino]quinoline) salt as a fluorescence indicator for Calcium. To this suspension Saponin was added to a final concentration of 20 .mu.g/ml to permeabilize the cells. The fluorescence of the suspension was continually monitored with a fluorescence spectrometer until a stable baseline was achieved. At this point, IP3 was added and the resulting release of Calcium measured as an increase in the intensity of the Quin2-fluorescence. An EC.sub.50 (effective concentration) value of 2.times.10exp-7M was obtained at pH 7.4. IP2-5-MP itself had no effect on release of Calcium. However, when applied at 10exp-4M 15 sec before addition of 5.times.10exp-7M IP3, at pH values below 7.4 the Calcium response to IP3 was inhibited.
The following Inhibiton-values were found at the indicated concentrations of IP3 (5.times.10-7M) and IP2-5-MP (1.times.10-4M):

Synthesis of Bis(1-[6-trifluoromethyl]benzotriazolyl) methylphosphonate
A solution of methylphosphonic dichloride (0.67 g, 5.04 mmol) in anhydrous dioxane (5 ml) was added dropwise to a stirred solution of dry 1-hydroxy-6-trifluoromethylbenzotriazole (2.05 g, 10.10 mmol) and pyridine (0.81 ml, 10.03 mmol) in anhydrous dioxane (20 mL) at 20.degree. C. The solution was stirred for 1 h at 20.degree. C. and the salts were removed by filtration. The 0.2M stock solution of bis(1-[6-trifluoromethyl]benzotriazolyl) methylphosphonate (.sup.31 P-NMR: delta 47.60) thus obtained could be stored for several weeks at -20.degree. C.
Synthesis of (Difluoromethyl)phosphonic di(1,2,4-triazolide)
A solution of (difluoromethyl)phosphonic dichloride (see D. E. Bergstrom et al., J. Org. Chem. 53, 3953 (1988)) (0.85 g, 5.03 mmol) in anhydrous dioxane (5 ml) was added dropwise to a stirred solution of dry 1,2,4-triazole (0.85 g, 12.32 mmol) and Et.sub.3 N (1.40 ml, 10.06 mmol) in anhydrous dioxane (20 ml) at 20.degree. C. The solution was stirred for 1 h at 20.degree. C. and the salts were removed by filtration. The 0.2 M stock solution of (difluoro-methyl)phosphonic di(1,2,4-triazolide) (.sup.31 P-NMR: delta -3.01, J.sub.P,F =106.0 Hz) thus obtained could be stored for several weeks at -20.degree. C.
