Muscarinic receptor antagonists

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to certain amides and to novel intermediates used in their synthesis. The compounds of the invention are muscarinic receptor antagonists which are selective for smooth muscle muscarinic sites over cardiac muscarinic sites and do not have any significant antihistaminic activity. Thus the compounds are useful in the treatment of diseases associated with altered motility and/or tone of smooth muscle which can, for example, be found in the gut, trachea and bladder. Such diseases include irritable bowel syndrome, diverticular disease, urinary incontinence, oesophageal achalasia and chronic obstructive airways disease.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The compounds of the formula (I) may be prepared from the compounds of the formulae: ##STR9## and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, where X, Y and v are as defined for formula (I). These compounds are not only useful intermediates to the compounds of the formula (I), but are also muscarinic receptor antagonists. These intermediates, excluding the compound "3-benzylmethylamino-1,1-diphenylpropyl cyanide", which is disclosed, purely as a synthetic intermediate, in J. Chem. Soc., 500, (1949), also form a part of the invention.
The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of formula (I) include acid addition salts such as the hydrochloride, hydrobromide, sulphate or bisulphate, phosphate or hydrogen phosphate, acetate, besylate, citrate, fumarate, gluconate, lactate, maleate, mesylate, succinate and tartrate salts. For a more comprehensive list of pharmaceutically acceptable salts see, for example, the Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Vol. 66, No. 1, January 1977, pages 1-19. These salts can be prepared conventionally, e.g. by mixing a solution of the free base and the acid in a suitable solvent, e.g. ethanol, and recovering the acid addition salt either as a precipitate, or by evaporation of the solution.
The compounds of the formula (I) can be prepared by a number of routes, including the following:
Route A
This route involves the hydrolysis of the nitriles of the formula (II) in a conventional manner, e.g. using concentrated aqueous mineral acid (typically concentrated aqueous H.sub.2 SO.sub.4), aqueous alkali (e.g. aqueous potassium hydroxide) or alkaline hydrogen peroxide (typically H.sub.2 O.sub.2 /NaOH).
The hydrolysis is preferably carried out using concentrated sulphuric acid, preferably 80-98% sulphuric acid and most preferably 90% H.sub.2 SO.sub.4, with heating at e.g. 80.degree.-110.degree. C. and most preferably at about 100.degree. C. The product (I) can then be isolated and purified by conventional procedures. Clearly any cyano substituents on R.sup.4 are also likely to be hydrolysed to carbamoyl or carboxy, any alkanoyloxy substituents to hydroxy, and any alkoxycarbonyl substituents to carboxy.
The starting materials of the formula (II) can be obtained conventionally as will be known to those skilled in the art, e.g. as follows: ##STR10##
Formula (IIA) above represents compounds of the formula II wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are each hydrogen.
The above methodology is illustrated in detail in the Examples.
The starting materials used in the above reaction schemes are either known compounds or can again be prepared by conventional techniques. As stated previously, the preparation of "3-benzylmethylamino-1,1-diphenylpropyl cyanide" is described in Dupre et. al. in J. Chem. Soc., 500 (1949), and similar cyanides may be prepared analogously. See also Moffett and Aspergren, J. Amer. Chem. Soc., 4451 (1957); GB 1,129,955, GB 1,147,832, CA 795,330, U.S. Pat. No. 4,335,122 and Cheney et. al. in J. Org. Chem., 17, 770 (1952).
An alternative route is as follows: ##STR11##
The methyl ester starting materials are better known compounds (particularly the aminoacid derivatives in which m=1), or can be obtained by conventional techniques, e.g. as follows: ##STR12##
Route B:
This can be illustrated as follows: ##STR13##
R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, m and Z are as defined for formulae (I) and Q is a leaving group, e.g. Br, Cl, I, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkanesulfonyloxy (e.g. methanesulfonyloxy), benzenesulfonyloxy, toluenesulfonyloxy (e.g. p-toluenesulfonyloxy) or trifluoromethanesulfonyloxy. Preferably, Q is Cl, Br, l or methanesulfonyloxy.
The reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of an acid acceptor such as sodium bicarbonate, sodium or potassium carbonate or triethylamine, and in a suitable organic solvent, e.g. acetonitrile or dioxan, at up to the reflux temperature. Reaction temperatures of 60.degree.-110.degree. C. are generally desirable and it is most convenient to carry out the reaction under reflux. Iodo is a particularly suitable leaving group but since the starting materials (V) are sometimes most conveniently available as chlorides, the reaction can also be carried out using the compound (V) as a chloride but in the presence of an iodide such as sodium or potassium iodide.
The starting materials (IV) can be prepared by the debenzylation of the corresponding compounds of the formula (I) and (IB) in which Z is a direct link and R.sup.4 is phenyl, these being preparable, of course, by Route A. The debenzylation is typically carried out by catalytic hydrogenation, e.g. using H.sub.2 /Pd/C in ethanol, or by the use of formic acid in methanol in the presence of Pd/C.
Route C
This route can be illustrated as follows: ##STR14## R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, Z, v and m are as defined for formula (I) and Q is a leaving group.
The reaction is carried out conventionally, e.g. in an organic solvent such as toluene at 60.degree.-110.degree. C., preferably under reflux, and in the presence of a storng base such as sodium hydride or sodamide.
Q is preferably Cl, Br or I.
The starting materials can be obtained conventionally (see e.g. Route A).
Route D
The compounds of the formulae (IA) and (IB) in which Z is CH.sub.2 and R.sup.4 is 2- or 4-pyridyl or pyrazinyl can also be prepared by reacting a compound of the formula (IVA) or (IVB) (see Route B) with 2- or 4-vinylpyridine or 2-vinylpyrazine. The reaction is typically carried out in a suitable organic solvent, e.g. dioxan, with heating, typically at about 60.degree.-110.degree. C. and preferably under reflux. In some instances, the presence of a basic (preferably a strong base which is soluble in an organic solvent, such as N-benzyltrimethylammonium hydroxide ["Triton B"]) or acidic (preferably a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkanoic acid) catalyst may be beneficial. The product can then be isolated and purified conventionally.
Some of the compounds of the formula (I) in which R.sup.4 is a substituted phenyl group can be converted to other compounds of the formula (I) as follows:
(a) A --CO.sub.2 (C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl) substituent on the phenyl group can be reduced to --CH.sub.2 OH. Lithium aluminium hydride is the most suitable reducing agent. The reaction is typically carried out in a suitable organic solvent, e.g. ether, at between 0.degree. and room temperature. It is generally most convenient to use the starting material in the form of its methyl ester.
(b) A hydroxy substituent on the phenyl group can be converted to --OCO(C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl) by acylation using a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkanoyl chloride or bromide, or an alkanoic anhydride of the formula (C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl.CO).sub.2 O. The presence of an acid acceptor is preferable. The reaction is typically carried out at about room temperature in a suitable organic solvent, e.g. dioxan.
(c) A --CO(C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl) substituent on the phenyl group can be reduced to a substituent of the formula --CH(OH)(C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl). Suitable reducing agents include sodium borohydride and lithium aluminum hydride. The reaction is typically carried out at between 0.degree. and room temperature in a suitable organic solvent, e.g. methanol. Sodium borohydride is the preferred reducing agent.
(d) A --(CH.sub.2).sub.p COO(C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl) substituent, preferably where the alkyl group is methyl, can be converted to --(CH.sub.2).sub.p CONR.sup.7 R.sup.8 by reaction with ammonia or the appropriate amine R.sup.7 R.sup.8 NH. When R.sup.7 and R.sup.8 are both H, the use of aqueous (0.880) ammonia is generally most convenient, although the reaction can be carried out using ammonia in an organic solvent such as methanol or ethanol, or ammonia neat in a bomb. The reaction with methylamine is most conveniently carried out in ethanol. Although in some instances the reaction may proceed at a satisfactory rate at room temperature, heating at up to 120.degree., preferably 60.degree. to 100.degree. C., is often necessary. For volatile amines, the reaction is best carried out in a bomb.
(e) An amino substituent on the phenyl group can be converted to --NHSO.sub.2 (C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl) by reaction with a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkanesulphonyl chloride or bromide or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkanesulphonic anhydride. The presence of an acid acceptor such as pyridine, triethylamine, sodium bicarbonate or sodium potassium carbonate, is preferable. It is often most convenient, particularly when a sulphonyl chloride is used, to carry out the reaction in pyridine, the pyridine functioning as both the solvent and the acid acceptor. Heating is not usually necessary: normally the reaction will proceed at a satisfactory rate at room temperature.
(f) An amino substituent on the phenyl group can also be converted to sulphamoyl by reaction with sulphamide, typically under reflux in an organic solvent such as dioxan.
(g) A hydroxy substituent can be converted to C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy firstly by reaction with a base such as potassium carbonate, and then by reaction with a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl iodide. The reaction is preferably carried out at the reflux temperature in a solvent such as acetone or dioxan.
(h) An acetyl substituent can be converted to --C(OH)(CH.sub.3).sub.2 by reaction with methyllithium, methylmagnesium bromide, methylmagnesium iodide or methylmagnesium chloride. The reaction is typically carried out in a solvent such as ether at a temperature of from 0.degree. C. to room temperature.
(i) An iodo substituent can be converted to C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxycarbonyl by reaction, typically at about room temperature, with carbon monoxide in a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkanol containing a base [e.g. potassium carbonate] and a palladium (II) catalyst [e.g. bis(triphenylphosphine)palladium (II) chloride]. and
(j) A cyano substituent on the phenyl group can be reduced to aminomethyl, typically by catalytic hydrogenation, e.g. using H.sub.2 /Pd/C in ethanol containing a small amount of concentrated hydrochloric acid, or by using formic acid in methanol in the presence of Pd/C.
The selectivity of the compounds as muscarinic receptor antagonists can be measured as follows.
Male guinea pigs are sacrificed and the ileum, trachea, bladder and right atrium are removed and suspended in physiological salt solution under a resting tension of 1 g at 32.degree. C. aerated with 95% O.sub.2 and 5% CO.sub.2. Contractions of the ileum, bladder and trachea are recorded using an isotonic (ileum) or isometric transducer (bladder and trachea). The frequency of contraction of the spontaneously beating right atrium is derived from isometrically recorded contractions.
Dose-response curves to either acetylcholine (ileum) or carbachol (trachea, bladder and right atrium) are determined using a 1-5 minute contact time for each dose of agonist until the maximum response is achieved. The organ bath is drained and refilled with physiological salt solution containing the lowest dose of the test compound. The test compound is allowed to equilibrate with the tissue for 20 minutes and the agonist dose-response curve is repeated until the maximum response is obtained. The organ bath is drained and refilled with physiological salt solution containing the second concentration of test compound and the above procedure is repeated. Typically four concentrations of the test compound are evaluated on each tissue.
The concentration of the test compound which causes a doubling of the agonist concentration to produce the original response is determined (pA.sub.2 value-Arunlakshana and Schild (1959), Brit. J. Pharmacol., 14, 48-58). Using the above analytical techniques, tissue selectivity for muscarinic receptor antagonists is determined.
Activity against agonist induced bronchoconstriction, gut or bladder contractility in comparison with changes in heart rate is determined in the anaesthetised dog. Oral activity is assessed in the conscious dog determining compound effects on, for example, heart rate, pupil diameter and gut motility.
Compound affinity for other cholinergic sites is assessed in the mouse after either intravenous or intraperitoneal administration. Thus, the dose to cause a doubling of pupil size is determined as well as the dose to inhibit by 50% the salivation and tremor responses to intravenous oxotremorine.
For administration to man in the curative or prophylactic treatment of diseases associated with the altered motility and/or tone of smooth muscle, such as irritable bowel syndrome, diverticular disease, urinary incontinence, oesophageal achalasia and chronic obstructive airways disease, oral dosages of the compounds will generally be in the range of from 3.5 to 350 mg daily for an average adult patient (70 kg). Thus for a typical adult patient, individual tablets or capsules will typically contain from 1 to 250 mg of active compound, in a suitable pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle or carrier for administration singly or in multiple doses, once or several times a day. Dosages for intravenous administration will typically be within the range 0.35 to 35 mg per single dose as required. In practice the physician will determine the actual dosage which will be most suitable for an individual patient and it will vary with the age, weight and response of the particular patient. The above dosages are exemplary of the average case but there can, of course, be individual instances where higher or lower dosage ranges are merited, and such are within the scope of this invention.
For human use, the compounds of the formula (I) can be administered alone, but will generally be administered in admixture with a pharmaceutical carrier selected with regard to the intended route of administration and standard pharmaceutical practice. For example, they may be administered orally in the form of tablets containing such excipients as starch or lactose, or in capsules or ovules either alone or in admixture with excipients, or in the form of elixirs or suspensions containing flavouring or colouring agents. They may be injected parenterally, for example, intravenously, intramuscularly or subcutaneously. For parenteral administration, they are best used in the form of a sterile aqueous solution which may contain other substances, for example, enough salts or glucose to make the solution isotonic with blood.
