Abstract
Compounds of formula (I) ##STR1## wherein n, V, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are as defined in the specification are matrix metalloproteinase inhibitors.
Description

The present invention relates to therapeutically active hydroxamic and carboxylic acid derivatives, to processes for their preparation, to pharmaceutical compositions containing them, and to the use of such compounds in medicine. In particular, the compounds are inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases involved in tissue degradation, especially collagenases such as human fibroblast collagenase (MMP-1), human neutrophil collagenase (MMP-8) and collagenase-3 (MMP-13).
BACKGROUND TO THE INVENTION
Compounds which have the property of inhibiting the action of metalloproteinases involved in connective tissue breakdown such as collagenases, stromelysins and/or gelatinases (known as "matrix metalloproteinases", and herein referred to as MMPs) are thought to be potentially useful for the treatment or prophylaxis of conditions involving such tissue breakdown, for example rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, osteopenias such as osteoporosis, periodontitis, gingivitis, corneal epidermal or gastric ulceration, and tumour metastasis, invasion and growth. MMP inhibitors are also of potential value in the treatment of neuroinflammatory disorders, including those involving myelin degradation, for example multiple sclerosis, as well as in the management of angiogenesis dependent diseases, which include arthritic conditions and solid tumour growth as well as psoriasis, proliferative retinopathies, neovascular glaucoma, ocular tumours, angiofibromas and hemangiomas. However, the relative contributions of individual MMPs in any of the above disease states is not yet fully understood.
Metalloproteinases are characterised by the presence in the structure of a zinc(II) ionic site. It is now known that there exists a range of metalloproteinase enzymes that includes human fibroblast collagenase (MMP-1), human neutrophil collagenase (MMP-8) and collagenase-3 (MMP-13), 72 kDa-gelatinase, 92 kDa-gelatinase, stromelysin-1, stromelysin-2 and PUMP-1 (J. F. Woessner, FASEB J, 1991, 5, 2145-2154).
Known classes of collagenase inhibitors include those disclosed in EP-A-0574758 (Roche), EP-A-0684240 (Roche), and WO 95/33731 (Roche). In general, the compounds disclosed in those publications may be represented by the structural formula (IA) ##STR2## in which X, Y and the N-containing ring are variable in accordance with the specific disclosures of the publications.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
This invention makes available a novel class of compounds which are inhibitors of matrix metalloproteinases. In general, they are selective inhibitors of collagenases, such as human fibroblast collagenase, over gelatinases, stromelysins and matrilysin, and are therefore indicated for treatment of diseases primarily mediated by collagenases. The class includes compounds which are capable of being administered orally, as indicated by oral dosing tests in laboratory animals.
The compounds of the invention conform to general formula (IA), but differ in structure from prior art compounds of that general formula principally in the identity of the group X. In the compounds of the present invention, the group X is a sulfonamidoalkyl group, not contemplated by any of EP-A-0574758, EP-A-0684240, or WO 95/33731.

Compounds of the invention wherein V is HONH-- may be prepared by a process which comprises causing an acid of the invention of general formula (IV) ##STR5## or an activated derivative thereof to react with hydroxylamine, O-protected hydroxylamine, N,O-diprotected hydroxylamine, or a salt thereof, n, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, and R.sub.4, being as defined in general formula (I) except that any substituents in R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, and R.sub.4 which are potentially reactive with hydroxylamine, the O-protected hydroxylamine, the N,O-diprotected hydroxylamine or their salts may themselves be protected from such reaction, then removing any protecting groups from the resultant hydroxamic acid moiety and from any protected substituents in R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, and R.sub.4.
Conversion of (IV) to an activated derivative such as the pentafluorophenyl, hydroxysuccinyl, or hydroxybenzotriazolyl ester may be effected by reaction with the appropriate alcohol in the presence of a dehydrating agent such as dicyclohexyl dicarbodiimide (DCC), N,N-dimethylaminopropyl-N'-ethyl carbodiimide (EDC), or 2-ethoxy-1-ethoxycarbonyl-1,2-dihydroquinoline (EEDQ).
Protecting groups as referred to above are well known per se, for example from the techniques of peptide chemistry. Amino groups are often protectable by benzyloxycarbonyl, t-butoxycarbonyl or acetyl groups, or in the form of a phthalimido group. Hydroxy groups are often protectable as readily cleavable ethers such as the t-butyl or benzyl ether, or as readily cleavable esters such as the acetate. Carboxy groups are often protectable as readily cleavable esters, such as the t-butyl or benzyl ester.
Examples of O-protected hydroxylamines for use in the process of the invention above include O-benzylhydroxylamine, O-4-methoxybenzylhydroxylamine, O-trimethylsilylhydroxylamine, and O-tert-butoxycarbonylhydroxylamine.
Examples of O,N-diprotected hydroxylamines for use in the process of the invention include N, O-bis(benzyl)hydroxylamine, N, O-bis(4-methoxybenzyl)hydroxylamine, N-tert-butoxycarbonyl-O-tert-butyldimethylsilylhydroxylamine, N-tert-butoxycarbonyl-O-tetrahydropyranylhydroxylamine, and N, O-bis(tert-butoxycarbonyl)hydroxylamine.
Acids of the invention (IV) differ in structure from the analogous compounds of EP-A-0684240 principally in that they have the above defined R.sub.4 --(SO.sub.2)--N(R.sub.3)--(CH.sub.2).sub.n -- group on the carbon atom carrying the carboxylic acid group. The synthetic route disclosed in that publication, which involves an alkylation step to introduce the desired group onto the carbon atom carrying the carboxyl group, may be used to prepare acids (IV) by substituting the alkylating agent required to introduce the R.sub.4 --(SO.sub.2)--N(R.sub.3)--(CH.sub.2)n-- group of this invention, for example R.sub.4 --(SO.sub.2)--N(R.sub.3)--(CH.sub.2)n--Br.
Acids of the invention (IV) may also be prepared by forming the appropriate R.sub.4 -sulfonamide of an amine of formula (V), for example by reaction with an activated derivative of a sulphonic acid (VI), ##STR6## wherein P.sub.1 is a protected carboxyl group and n, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 are as defined in relation to formula (I) except that any substituents in R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 which are potentially reactive with (VI) may be protected, and thereafter deprotecting the protected carboxyl group P.sub.1 and any protected substituents in R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4. Activated sulphonic acids and conditions for forming sulfonamides are well known in organic synthesis, e.g. reaction with the sulfonyl chloride in the presence of an organic base.
Amines of formula (V) in which R.sub.3 is hydrogen may be prepared from the corresponding hydroxyl compound of formula (VA) ##STR7## by methods known in organic synthesis for conversion of hydroxyl groups to amine groups, e.g. by conversion the hydroxyl group of (VIA) to a leaving group, displacement with azide, followed by catalytic hydrogenation of the azide group.
Amines of formula (V) in which R.sub.3 is other than hydrogen may be accessible by direct introduction of R.sub.3 onto the amine group of the compound (V) wherein R.sub.3 is hydrogen. In the special case of compounds (V) wherein n is 1, ammination of the double bond of compounds (VIA) ##STR8## with the amine R.sub.3 NH.sub.2 can provide a convenient route.
Compounds (VIA) and (VIA) may be prepared by reaction of a cyclic amine R.sub.2 H with the corresponding carboxylic acids (VAB) and (VIIB) ##STR9## wherein n, P.sub.1, R.sub.1, and R.sub.2 are as defined in relation to formula (V) and P.sub.2 is a protected hydroxyl group, which is converted to the required hydroxyl group after the reaction with amine R.sub.2 H.
Compounds (VAB) and (VIIB) are either known, are analogues of known compounds, or are accessible by known literature methods.
As mentioned above, compounds of formula (I) are useful in human or veterinary medicine since they are active as inhibitors of MMPs. Enzyme inhibition assays useful for determining the activity of a particular compound of the invention against MMPs are known, see for example the assays described in Biological Example A below, and the MMP inhibition assays described in patent publications listed above in the section "Background to the Invention".

The resulting free acid (18.6 g) was dissolved in acetone (250 ml) and the solution was placed under an argon atmosphere. Potassium carbonate (19 g, 138 mmol) and benzyl bromide (7.4 ml, 62.2 mmol) were added and the reaction mixture was stirred overnight. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residual oil was dissolved in ethyl acetate. The solution was washed with water (3.times.50 ml), dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated to dryness and the residue was purified by flash chromatography (silica gel, ethyl acetate hexane, 1:9) to provide the title compound as a colourless oil (21.7 g, 88%). .sup.1 H-NMR: .delta. (CDCl.sub.3), 7.41-7.30 (5H, m), 5.70 (1H, m), 5.14 (2H, d, J=1.3 Hz), 5.06-4.94 (2H, m), 2.75 (1H, m), 2.60 (1H, m), 2.45 (1H, m), 2.12 (1H, m), 1.71 (1H, m), 1.43 (9H, s), 1.32-1.11 (2H, m), 0.88 (3H, d, J=6.5 Hz) and 0.86 (3H, d, J=6.6 Hz).

The solution was treated with 3M sodium hydroxide solution (10 ml, 30 mmol) followed by 30% w/v hydrogen peroxide (slowly) and the reaction mixture was allowed to stir for a further 2 hours. THF was evaporated under reduced pressure and the residue was diluted with ethyl acetate (100 ml) and water (50 ml). The organic layer was separated, washed with water (3.times.50 ml), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and filtered.

3S-Isobutyl-2R-(3-methanesulfonyloxy-propyl)-succinic acid 4-benzyl ester 1-tert-butyl ester (6.1 g, 14 mmol) was dissolved in toluene (100 ml) and tetrabutylammonium iodide (4.9 g, 14 mmol) was added followed by a solution of sodium azide (8.7 g, 140 mmol) in water (100 ml). The reaction mixture was heated at reflux for 8 hours, stirred at room temperature for 3 days then heated at reflux for a further 6 hours. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (100 ml) and the organic layer was separated, washed with water (3.times.80 ml), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and evaporated under reduced pressure.

2S-(3-Amino-propyl)-3R-isobutyl-succinic acid 1-tert-butyl ester (3.7 g, 12.9 mmol) was dissolved in THF (150 ml) and the solution was cooled to 0.degree. C. Triethylamine (3.8 ml, 27.3 mmol) and Z-ONSu (3.5 g, 14 mmol) were added and the mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residue was dissolved in ethyl acetate (150 ml), washed successively with 1M hydrochloric acid (50 ml) and water (2.times.30 ml) dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and filtered.

BIOLOGICAL EXAMPLE A
The potency of compounds of the present invention as inhibitors of human fibroblast collagenase may be determined by the procedure of Cawston and Barrett, (Anal. Biochem., 99, 340-345, 1979), hereby incorporated by reference, whereby a 1 mM solution of the compound being tested, or a dilution thereof, was incubated at 37.degree. C. for 16 hours with collagen and human fibroblast collagenase (buffered with 25 mM Hepes, pH 7.5 containing 5 mM CaCl.sub.2, 0.05% Brij 35 and 0.02% NaN.sub.3). The collagen was acetylated .sup.14 C collagen prepared by the method of Cawston and Murphy, (Methods in Enzymology, 80, 711, 1981), hereby incorporated by reference. The samples were centrifuged to sediment undigested collagen, and an aliquot of the radioactive supernatant removed for assay on a scintillation counter as a measure of hydrolysis. The collagenase activity in the presence of 1 mM of the test compound, or a dilution thereof, was compared to activity in a control devoid of inhibitor and the result reported below as that of inhibitor concentration effecting 50% inhibition of the collagenase activity (IC.sub.50). Compounds of the invention tested in this assay were shown to be active as inhibitors of human fibroblast collagenase. For example, in this assay, the compound of Example 2 was shown to have IC.sub.50 of about 50 nM.
