Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a novel isothiocyanated cyclodextrin derivative which can label various kinds of organic compounds containing an amino group as their functional group (ion-exchanged resins, fibers, food products, medicines, and the like and, in particular, amino groups of biological amines such as amino acids, peptides, proteins, and catecholamines).
2. Related Background Art
It has been known that cyclodextrin (referred to as "CD" hereinafter) has a hydrophobic three-dimensional bucket-shape (or doughnut shape) configuration formed by walls of glucose with a cavity within which a variety of guest molecules can be included. By means of its characteristics, CD has been applied to a variety of industrial fields such as medicines, agricultural chemicals, and cosmetics in which such effects as solidification of liquid materials by clathration and alleviation of irritativeness, bitterness, offensive odor, and the like are provided.
Further, the field of utilization of CD has been expanded, whereby CD derivatives having specific configurations have been synthesized from fundamental .alpha., .beta., and .gamma.-CDs (designating cyclohexamylose, cycloheptamylose, and cyclooctamylose made of 6, 7, and 8 segments of amylose, respectively) in order to achieve specific uses. Some of them have been commercially available. Among them, CD derivatives in which some sugar chains (maltose and glucose) are bonded to a cyclic cyclodextrin skeleton so as to form further branches (Methods Carbohydr. Chem., 10, 277 (1994)), alkylated CDs (J. Pharm. Pharmacol., 46 (9), 714 (1994)), and the like have been known as derivatives having further improved water-solubility.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In various kinds of organic compounds containing amino groups, on the other hand, there has been a strong demand for developing the characteristic explained above, namely, a method for labeling them with a CD derivative which can include a variety of guest molecules with an appropriate size within its cavity. Nevertheless, no CD derivative has been known which can efficiently react and combine with various kinds of compounds containing an amino group. If such a method is developed, a labeling reagent by which fundamental functions (e.g., solubility, association, and optical characteristics) of guest molecules are improved on the basis of the above-mentioned clathration can be constructed.
As a result of diligent studies for developing a CD derivative which satisfies the above-mentioned demand, the inventors have succeeded in synthesizing a cyclodextrin derivative in which at least one of primary hydroxyl groups (--CH.sub.2 OH, hydroxymethyl group) of various CD derivatives has been substituted by an isothiocyanato group (--CH.sub.2 NCS, isothiocyanatomethyl group), thereby accomplishing the present invention.
Namely, in the present invention, various kinds of cyclodextrin derivatives are used as starting materials, at least one of their primary hydroxyl groups (--CH.sub.2 OH, hydroxymethyl group) is converted into an amino group (--CH.sub.2 NH.sub.2, aminomethyl group), and then thus formed amino group is converted into isothiocyanato group (--CH.sub.2 NCS, isothiocyanatomethyl group) by an appropriate dehydrating reaction, whereby a method of synthesizing the aimed cyclodextrin derivative having an isothiocyanato group is established.
More specifically, the present invention relates to a novel cyclodextrin derivative which is synthesized according to the general synthesizing method mentioned above and in which at least one primary hydroxyl group of a cyclodextrin derivative is substituted by an isothiocyanato group.
Namely, the present invention provides a cyclodextrin derivative in which at least one primary hydroxyl group is substituted by an isothiocyanato group.
Also, the present invention provides a compound expressed by general formula (I): ##STR2## wherein n is an integer from 5 to 7.
Further, the present invention provides a compound expressed by general formula (II): ##STR3## wherein n is an integer from 5 to 7, m is 1 or 2, and X is OH, NCS, OSO.sub.2 C.sub.6 H.sub.4 CH.sub.3, N.sub.3 or NH.sub.2 while at least one X is NCS, OSO.sub.2 C.sub.6 H.sub.4 CH.sub.3, N.sub.3 NH.sub.2.
The present invention will be more fully understood from the detailed description given hereinbelow and the accompanying drawings, which are given by way of illustration only and are not to be considered as limiting the present invention.
Further scope of applicability of the present invention will become apparent from the detailed description given hereinafter. However, it should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating preferred embodiments of the invention, are given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art from this detailed description.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
In the present invention, in order to obtain a CD derivative having a group which can react with an amino group, an isothiocyanato group which is a reactive group with respect to amino groups is introduced into a CD derivative. The CD derivative, which is a starting material, and a method of introducing the isothiocyanato group thereinto will be explained in detail in the following.
Starting Material
From the viewpoint of usability of raw materials, a variety of cyclodextrins are commercially available and, usable. For example, depending on the number of glucose units therein, .alpha.-cyclodextrin, .beta.-cyclodextrin, or .gamma.-cyclodextrin is available with a high purity. Accordingly, these cyclodextrins or cyclodextrin derivatives having configurations similar thereto can be preferably used as a starting material for the present invention. Examples of starting materials which can be preferably used include .alpha.-cyclodextrin; .beta.-cyclodextrin; .gamma.-cyclodextrin; those with a branched configuration such as glucosyl-.alpha.-cyclodextrin, glucosyl-.beta.-cyclodextrin, glucosyl-.gamma.-cyclodextrin, maltosyl-.alpha.-cyclodextrin, maltosyl-.beta.-cyclodextrin, and maltosyl-.gamma.-cyclodextrin; alkylated cyclodextrin derivatives such as 6-O-methyl-.alpha.-cyclodextrin, 6-O-methyl-.beta.-cyclodextrin, 6-O-methyl-.gamma.-cyclodextrin, 2,6-di-O-methyl-.alpha.-cyclodextrin, 2,6-di-O-methyl-.beta.-cyclodextrin, 2,6-di-O-methyl-.gamma.-cyclodextrin, 2,3,6-tri-O-methyl-.alpha.-cyclodextrin, 2,6-di-O-ethyl-.alpha.-cyclodextrin, 2,3,6-tri-O-ethyl-.alpha.-cyclodextrin, and their .beta.-cyclodextrin and .gamma.-cyclodextrin equivalents; hydoxyalkylated cyclodextrins such as 2-hydroxyethyl-.alpha.-cyclodextrin, 2-hydroxypropyl-.alpha.-cyclodextrin, 3-hydroxypropyl-.alpha.-cyclodextrin, 2,3-dihydroxypropyl-.alpha.-cyclodextrin, 2,3,6-tri-O-acyl(C.sub.2 to C.sub.18)-.alpha.-cyclodextrin, O-carboxylmethyl-O-ethyl-.alpha.-cyclodextrin, .alpha.-cyclodextrin sulfate, .alpha.-cyclodextrin phosphate, and their .beta.-cyclodextrin and .gamma.-cyclodextrin equivalents (Kaneto Uegama, Summary of Lectures for the Twelfth Cyclodextrin Symposium, 1 (1993)). Namely, any cyclodextrin can be used as long as it contains at least one hydroxyl group or, preferably, primary hydroxyl group.
Actually, in the method of introducing an isothiocyanato group explained in the following, all the above-mentioned cyclodextrins proceed by substantially the same reaction.
Method of Introducing Isothiocyanato Group
In the present invention, while an isothiocyanato group, which has a high reactivity with respect to amino groups, is introduced into a CD derivative in order to obtain a CD derivative having a group which can react with an amino group; there is no particular restriction with respect to the bonding position to which the isothiocyanato group is introduced nor its bonding method.
In terms of the introducing position of an isothiocyanato group, it is preferable that a hydroxyl group of the CD derivative be substituted by the isothiocyanato group. The CD derivative may have both primary hydroxyl group (--CH.sub.2 OH) and secondary hydroxyl group (--CH(OH)), and any of them may be substituted by an isothiocyanato group so as to form --CH.sub.2 NCS and --CH(NCS), respectively. Further, the number of isothiocyanato groups to be introduced is not restricted in particular, whereby a plurality of isothiocyanato groups may be introduced according to the purposes of the invention.
While the method of introducing the isothiocyanato group by converting a hydroxyl group of the CD derivative thereinto is not restricted in particular, a method based on the synthesis path shown in the drawings (see FIG. 25) is preferable. Namely, a hydroxyl group of a starting CD derivative is sulfonated, turned into an azide, converted into an amino group, and then converted into an isothiocyanato group. In the following description these steps will be explained.
The first step: Though the method of activating the above-mentioned hydroxyl group with respect to a replacement reaction for quantitatively replacing the hydroxyl group with the azido group is not restricted in particular, the activating method by esterification with an aromatic sulfonate is one preferable method. In particular, p-toluenesulfonylation with a p-toluenesulfonyl halide is one of the preferable methods.
Reaction solvents, reaction catalysts, reaction temperature, and the like may be selected in order to perform control such that the above-mentioned activation can be quantitatively effected. In the present invention, typical conditions for aromatic sulfonylation are also usable (see Org. Syn. 20, 50 (1940) and J. Org. Chem., 37, 1259 (1972)). For example, a reaction condition at 0.degree. C. in which pyridine is used as a solvent can be preferably used. For isolating and purifying the reaction product, normal methods of separation, purification, and the like can be used. For example, a separating means based on column chromatography using silica gel or the like and recrystallization from an appropriate solvent or the like can be used. The purity necessary for the present invention is at least 80% and, more preferably, at least 90%. The product can be confirmed by normal structure-determining methods. For example, conversion from a hydroxyl group to a sulfonate group may be confirmed by an infrared absorption spectrum (IR) method, nuclear magnetic resonance absorption spectrum (NMR) method, mass spectrometry (MS) method, elemental analysis, melting point analysis, and the like. The purity of the product can be assumed not only by the foregoing spectra but also by thin layer chromatography (TLC), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the like.
The second step: The conversion into an azido group can be effected according to a normal replacement reaction condition (see Carbohydrate Research, 18, 29 (1971)). In this case, the reaction solvent is preferably a polar solvent. For example, it is dimethylformamide (DMF). In order to introduce an azido group, various azide salts (e.g., sodium salts) can be preferably used. The reaction depends on temperature, reaction time, and the like, and its proceeding can be monitored by an appropriate means. TLC, HPLC, and the like can be used as a monitoring method. For isolating and purifying the reaction product, normal methods of separation, purification, and the like can be used. For example, a separating means based on column chromatography using silica gel or the like and recrystallization from an appropriate solvent or the like can be used. The purity necessary for the present invention is at least 80% and, more preferably, at least 90%. The product can be confirmed by normal structure-determining methods. For example, conversion from a hydroxyl group to an azido group may be confirmed by an infrared absorption spectrum (IR) method, nuclear magnetic resonance absorption spectrum (NMR) method, mass spectrometry (MS) method, elemental analysis, melting point analysis, and the like. The purity of the product can be assumed not only by the foregoing spectra but also by thin layer chromatography (TLC), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the like.
The third step: The method of converting thus obtained azido group into an amino group is not restricted in particular, and typical hydrogenation reactions and reducing reactions can be used therefor (see Can. J. Chem., 50, 3886 (1972)). In the present invention, normal catalytic hydrogenation reactions can be preferably used. For example, a hydrogenation method with palladium on carbon as a catalyst can be desirably used. The progress of the reaction can be monitored by an appropriate means. TLC, HPLC, and the like can be used as a monitoring method. For isolating and purifying the reaction product, normal methods of separation, purification, and the like can be used. For example, a separating means based on column chromatography using silica gel or the like and recrystallization from an appropriate solvent or the like can be used. The purity necessary for the present invention is at least 80% and, more preferably, at least 90%. The product can be confirmed by normal structure-determining methods. For example, conversion from a hydroxyl group to an amino group may be confirmed by infrared absorption spectrum (IR) method, nuclear magnetic resonance absorption spectrum (NMR) method, mass spectrometry (MS) method, elemental analysis, melting point analysis, and the like. The purity of the product can be assumed not only by the foregoing spectra but also by thin layer chromatography (TLC), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the like. Here, there is also preferably used a method in which a sulfonate group is reacted with anhydrous ammonia so as to be directly converted into an amino group (see Aust. J. Chem., 46, 953 (1993)).
The fourth step: In the present invention, a method of dehydrating the thus obtained amino group and converting it into an isothiocyanato group is not restricted in particular, and normal conditions can be preferably used therefor (see J. Am. Chem. Soc., 80, 3332 (1958) and Org. Syn., 21, 81 (1941)). Among various dehydrating reagents, carbodiimides (e.g., dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC)) can be preferably used in particular. In this case, as a reaction solvent, carbon disulfide, DMF, or the like can be preferably used. The proceeding of the reaction can be monitored by an appropriate means. TLC, HPLC, and the like can be used as a monitoring method.
For isolating and purifying an isothiocyanated CD derivative, which is a reaction product, normal methods of separation, purification, and the like can be used. For example, a separating means based on column chromatography using silica gel or the like and recrystallization from an appropriate solvent or the like can be used. The purity necessary for the present invention is at least 80% and, more preferably, at least 90%. When the isothiocyanated CD derivative in accordance with the present invention is used for labeling an amino-containing material, only the isothiocyanato group can be substantially reacted. Namely, in the case where the isothiocyanated CD derivative in accordance with the present invention is used, even when it is in a mixture with other materials or even when it is a mixture of isomers (respectively having different positions to which an isothiocyanato group is bonded or different numbers of isothiocyanato groups), it can be used in a reaction for labeling the aimed desired material without any particular limitation on its purity.
The product can be confirmed by normal structure-determining methods. For example, the position to which an isothiocyanato group is bonded and the number of isothiocyanato groups can be confirmed by measurement of data according to an infrared absorption spectrum (IR) method, nuclear magnetic resonance absorption spectrum (NMR) method, mass spectrometry (MS) method, elemental analysis, melting point analysis, and the like, as well as comparison of thus measured data. The purity of the product can be assumed not only by the foregoing spectra but also by thin layer chromatography (TLC), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the like. Also, in a mixture containing the isothiocyanated CD derivative in accordance with the present invention, the presence of the desired derivative and the concentration thereof can be similarly confirmed not only by the foregoing spectra but also by thin layer chromatography (TLC), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and the like.
Though examples of the present invention are shown in the following, the present invention should not be restricted thereto. While the synthesis path of the isothiocyanated CD derivative in accordance with the present invention has been explained as being divided into four steps for convenience, it should not be restricted thereto. In general, the compound isolated in each reaction step was confirmed under the following HPLC analysis conditions. While the following method was performed on the basis of Melton's method (Carbohydr. Res., 18, 29 (1971)) and Brown's method (Aust. J. Chem., 46, 953 (1993)), the respective conditions for experiments have been subjected to improvement or the like according to necessity.

Synthesis of mono-6-O-(2-naphthalenesulfonyl)-6-deoxy-.gamma.-cyclodextrin
In an atmosphere of nitrogen, 50 g (38.6 mmol) of .gamma.-cyclodextrin were added to 300 ml of pyridine, and then the mixture was cooled to 5.degree. C. with an ice bath. The reaction temperature was maintained at 5.degree. to 7.degree. C., and, while the mixture was stirred, 20 g (88.2 mmol) of naphthalenesulfonyl chloride were added thereto in several portions over about 1 hour. Immediately after this addition had been completed, 50 ml of water were added to the mixture to stop the reaction. The reaction solution was concentrated, and then a large excess amount of acetone was added thereto. A white precipitate obtained thereby was filtered out and separated. The resulting powder was dried and then dissolved in 200 ml of DMF. While this mixture was stirred, acetonitrile was added dropwise thereto from a separating funnel. After the precipitate initially deposited.(mainly composed of unreacted .gamma.-cyclodextrin) was filtered out, acetonitrile was further added dropwise to the filtrate, whereby a fraction mainly composed of a mononaphthalenesulfonyl derivative was obtained as white powder.
This powder was suspended in 500 ml of water, and the mixture was stirred overnight at 50.degree. C., whereby the remaining unreacted .gamma.-cyclodextrin was dissolved. The resulting precipitate was filtered out, dried, and then dissolved in DMF. Acetone was added dropwise to this solution, and the precipitate deposited thereby was filtered out and dried, whereby 5.3 g (yield: 9.3%) of substantially pure mono-6-O-(2-naphthalenesulfonyl)-6-deoxy-.gamma.-cyclodextrin were obtained.

Synthesis of mono-6-amino-6-.gamma.-deoxy-cyclodextrin
Into 100 ml of water, 3.2 g (2.4 mmol) of the monoazide derivative obtained by Example 10 were dissolved. To this mixture, 600 mg of palladium carbon were added and, at room temperature, hydrogen gas was supplied for 2 hours. The reaction liquid became positive in ninhydrin coloring.
The catalyst was removed by filtration under reduced pressure. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure and then precipitated from acetone, whereby mono-6-amino-6-deoxy-cyclodextrin was obtained. Thus obtained white precipitate was dried under reduced pressure and then used as it was in the next reaction.
EXAMPLE 12
Synthesis of mono-6-isothiocyanato-6-.gamma.-deoxycyclodextrin(NCS-.gamma.-CD)
Into 100 ml of DMF, the monoamino derivative obtained by the reaction of Example 11 was dissolved, and 10 ml (about 0.16 mol) of carbon disulfide were added thereto. The resulting solution was cooled to 3.degree. C. under a nitrogen flow and, while being stirred, 570 mg (3.00 mmol) of N-ethyl-N'-(N,N-dimethyl-3-aminopropyl)-carbodiimide hydrochloride (manufactured by Osaka Organic Chemical Laboratory) in DMF solution were added dropwise thereto. After this addition had been completed, the reaction temperature was returned to room temperature, and then the mixture was stirred for about 4 hours. After it was confirmed that the ninhydrin coloring had become negative, the reaction was terminated.
DMF was removed by evaporation. The residue was dissolved in a small amount of DMF, and a large excess amount of acetone was added thereto, whereby a precipitate was deposited. After this procedure had been repeated once again, the precipitate collected was dissolved in water and then precipitated from acetone. Thus obtained precipitate was dried under reduced pressure, whereby 2.00 g (yield: 62%) of mono-6-isothiocyanato-6-.gamma.-deoxycyclodextrin were obtained as white powder.

The resulting mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature as it was. Thereafter, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure, whereby a syrup-like raw product was obtained. Upon HPLC analysis, 4 peaks were observed in this raw product. The first, last, and third peaks were confirmed to be the excess p-toluenesulfonate, unreacted maltosyl-.beta.-cyclodextrin, and main product, respectively. This main product was dispensed and purified by preparative HPLC. From the fraction eluting the component corresponding to the third peak, i.e., main product or mono-6-O-(4-toluenesulfonyl)-6-deoxy-(maltosyl)-.beta.-cyclodextrin, the solvent was removed under reduced pressure.

Into 100 ml of DMF, 5.7 g (4.2 mmol) of the monoamino derivative obtained by Example 15 were dissolved, and 0.5 ml (about 8 mmol) of carbon disulfide was added thereto. The resulting solution was cooled to 0.degree. C. and, while being stirred, 0.97 g (4.7 mmol) of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide in DMF solution was added dropwise thereto in about 1 hour. After being stirred at 0.degree. C. for 6 hours, the mixture was returned to room temperature and then continuously stirred overnight as it was. It was confirmed that the reaction liquid was negative in terms of ninhydrin coloring. After the reaction, it was confirmed by HPLC analysis that a new peak had been detected at a retention time of 5.0-minutes.
The reaction liquid was concentrated. Water was added to the resulting syrup-like residue, and the mixture was left overnight at room temperature. The crystal precipitated thereby was filtered out. The filtrate was further concentrated, dissolved into a solvent in which acetonitrile/water=3:2, and then purified by preparative HPLC, whereby 3.45 g (yield: 59%) of mono-6-isothiocyanato-6-deoxy-maltosyl-.beta.-cyclodextrin were obtained.
The thus obtained product were dried under reduced pressure and then subjected to NMR measurement in DMSO (See FIG. 16). A signal derived from C6, a signal derived from C2, C3, and C4, a signal derived from C5, and a signal derived from C1 were confirmed at 61.0 to 60.1 ppm, 73.5 to 66.7 ppm, 83.2 to 79.8 ppm, and 102.1 to 99.2 ppm, respectively (see formula (III)). ##STR4##
Further, two signals were newly confirmed at 128 to 126 ppm and found to belong to the carbon of the isothiocyanato group. Thus, at least two signals were confirmed under this experimental condition, thereby indicating that there was a mixture of an isothiocyanato group substituted for a primary hydroxyl group of glucose at a cyclic portion and an isothiocyanato group substituted for a primary hydroxyl group of glucose at a branch portion.

This precipitate was dissolved in water, applied to a Sephadex G-25 column (20 mm.times.200 mm), and then eluted with water, whereby brown impurities were removed, being absorbed by the resin. A transparent pale yellow eluate was collected and freeze-dried, whereby 2.51 g (yield: 31%) of mono-6-isothiocyanato-6-deoxy-glucosyl-.beta.-cyclodextrin were obtained as yellow powder.

EXAMPLE 25
Labeling of amino acid with mono-6-isothiocyanato-6-deoxy-maltosyl-1-cyclodextrin
To 1 ml (0.5 mM, pH 9) of aqueous mono-6-isothiocyanato-6-deoxy-maltosyl-.beta.-cyclodextrin solution, 0.1 ml (0.5 mM, pH 9) of aqueous L-phenylalanine solution was added. The resulting mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. The reaction was monitored by TLC. It was confirmed that the spot due to the isothiocyanato derivative had disappeared and that a new spot had been generated at a position different therefrom. The reaction solution was negative in terms of ninhydrin coloring. The isothiocyanato derivative was combined with the TLC carrier and did not migrate from the origin (since the TLC surface was dried by heating). Also, by mass spectrum, the parent peak of the reaction product formed by the isothiocyanato derivative and phenylalanine was confirmed.

EXAMPLE 27
Labeling of insulin with mono-6-isothiocyanato-6-deoxy-.gamma.-cyclodextrin
Into 0.01-N HCl, 1 mg of insulin was completely dissolved. Then, the resulting solution was diluted to 1/10 with a buffer of pH 9. Of thus diluted solution, 1 ml was mixed with 20 .mu.l (10 mM) of DMSO solution of mono-6-isothiocyanato-6-deoxy-.gamma.-cyclodextrin. The resulting mixture was stirred for 3 days. When the reaction solution was subjected to TOFMS measurement (See FIG. 24), the parent peak of the labeled insulin was confirmed.
