The most preferred compounds are selected from the group consisting of 1-[(4-fluorophenyl)methyl]-N-[1-[2-[(2-pyrimidinyl)amino]ethyl]-4-piperidinyl]-1H-benzimidazol-2-amine and the pharmaceutically acceptable acid-addition salts thereof.
The compounds of formula (I) can generally be prepared by reacting an intermediate of formula (II) with a piperidine of formula (III) following art-known alkylating procedures. ##STR5## In (II) and (III) Het, R, R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and A are as previously described and Q.sub.1 and Q.sub.2 are selected so that in combination with Het a bivalent radical of formula (f), (g) or (h) is formed during the alkylation reaction, said (f), (g) and (h) having the previously described meaning.
For example, the compounds of formula (I) can generally be prepared by N-alkylating a piperidine of formula (III) wherein Q.sub.2 is hydrogen, said piperidine being represented by the formula (III-a), with a reagent of formula (II) having the general formula L-W, (II-a). ##STR6## In (II-a) W represents an appropriate reactive leaving group such as, for example, halo, e.g., chloro, bromo or iodo, or a sulfonyloxy group, e.g. methylsulfonyloxy or 4-methylphenylsulfonyloxy.
Additionally, the compounds of formula (I) wherein L is a radical of formula (f), a radical of formula (g) wherein Y is other than a direct bond, Y', or a radical of formula (h) wherein Z is other than a direct bond, Z', said compounds being represented by the formulae (I-a-1), respectively (I-a-2) and (I-a-3), can be prepared by alkylating a piperidine of formula (III-b) with a reagent of formula (II-b). ##STR7## In (III-b) Q.sub.2a is a radical of formula ##STR8## respectively a radical of formula HY'--Alk-- or ##STR9## In (II-b) W' has the previously defined meaning of W and, where s is 0, it may also represent a lower alkyloxy or lower alkylthio group.
The compounds of formula (I-a-2) may also be prepared by alkylating a piperidine of formula (III) wherein Q.sub.2 is a radical of formula --Alk--W, said piperidine being represented by the formula (III-c), with a reagent of formula (II) wherein Q.sub.1 is a radical of formula --C.sub.s H.sub.2s --Y'H, said reagent being represented by the formula (II-c). ##STR10##
The compounds of formula (I) wherein L is a radical of formula Het--C.sub.s H.sub.2s --Z--C(.dbd.X)--Y'--Alk, said compounds being represented by the formula (I-a-4), may also be prepared by N-alkylating a piperidine of formula (III-c) with a reagent of formula (II) wherein Q.sub.2 is a radical of formula --C.sub.s H.sub.2s --Z--C(.dbd.X)--Y'H, said reagent being represented by the formula (II-d). ##STR11##
The alkylation reactions are conveniently conducted in an inert organic solvent such as, for example, an aromatic hydrocarbon, e.g., benzene, methylbenzene, dimethylbenzene, and the like; a lower alkanol, e.g., methanol, ethanol, 1-butanol and the like; a ketone, e.g., 2-propanone, 4-methyl-2-pentanone and the like; and ether, e.g., 1,4-dioxane, 1,1'-oxybisethane, tetrahydrofuran and the like; N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF); N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA); nitrobenzene; 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone; and the like. The addition of an appropriate base such as, for example, an alkali metal carbonate or hydrogen carbonate, sodium hydride or an organic base such as, for example, N,N-diethylethanamine or N-(1-methylethyl)-2-propanamine may be utilized to pick up the acid which is liberated during the course of the reaction. In some circumstances the addition of an iodide salt, preferably an alkali metal iodide, is appropriate. Somewhat elevated temperatures may enhance the rate of the reaction.
The compounds of formula (I) wherein L is a radical of formula (h) wherein Z is Z', Y is NH and X is O or S, said X being represented by X' and said compounds by the formula (I-b-1), can generally be prepared by reacting an isocyanate or isothiocyanate of formula (V) with a reagent of formula (IV). ##STR12##
The compounds of formula (I) wherein L is a radical of formula (h) wherein Z is NH, Y is Y' and X is X', said compounds being represented by the formula (I-b-2), can be prepared by reacting an isocyanate or isothiocyanate of formula (VI) with a piperidine of formula (VII). ##STR13##
The reaction of (IV) with (V) and (VI) with (VII) is generally conducted in a suitable reaction-inert solvent such as, for example, an ether, e.g., tetrahydrofuran and the like. Elevated temperatures may be suitable to enhance the rate of the reaction.
The compounds of formula (I) wherein L is a radical of formula (h) wherein Z is a direct bond and X is X', said compounds being represented by the formula (I-c), may be prepared by reacting a piperidine of formula (VII) with a reagent of formula (VIII). ##STR14##
The reaction of (VII) and (VIII) may generally be conducted following art-known esterification- or amidation reaction-procedures, e.g., by converting the carboxylic acid function into a reactive derivative, e.g., an anhydride or a carboxylic halide function, and subsequently reacting this reactive derivative with a reagent of formula (VII). A suitable reaction is, for example, by stirring (VIII) with 2-quinolinecarboxylic acid in a suitable solvent in the presence of N,N-diethylethanamine and converting the intermediately formed reactive product into the desired ester or amide.
The compounds of formula (I) wherein L is a radical of formula (g) wherein Y is a direct bond and s is 0, said compounds being represented by the formula (I-d), may also be prepared by reacting an alkenylene of formula (IX) with a piperidine of formula (III-a) by stirring and, if desired, heating the reactants together. ##STR15##
The compounds of formula (I) can also be prepared by the cyclodesulfurization reaction of an appropriate thiourea derivative of the formula ##STR16## Said cyclodesulfurization reaction may be carried out by the reaction of (X) with an appropriate alkyl halide, preferably iodomethane in an appropriate reaction-inert organic solvent, e.g., a lower alkanol such as methanol, ethanol, 2-propanol and the like. Otherwise, the cyclodesulfurization reaction may be carried out by the reaction of (X) with an appropriate metal oxide or salt in an appropriate solvent according to art-known procedures.
For example, the compounds of formula (I) can easily be prepared by the reaction of (IV) with an appropriate Hg(II) or Pb(II) oxide or salt, such as, for example HgO, HgCl.sub.2, Hg(OAc).sub.2, PbO or Pb(OAc).sub.2. In certain instances it may be appropriate to supplement the reaction mixture with a small amount of sulfur. Even so methanediimines, especially N,N'-methanetetraylbis[cyclohexanamine] may be used as cyclodesulfurizing agents. Suitable reaction-inert organic solvents that may advantageously be employed include lower alkanols, e.g., methanol, ethanol, 2-propanol and the like; halogenated hydrocarbons, e.g., dichloromethane and trichloromethane; ethers, e.g. tetrahydrofuran, 2,2'-oxybispropane and the like; and mixtures of such solvents.
The compounds of formula (I) can also be converted into each other following art-known procedures of functional grouptransformation. Some examples will be cited hereinafter.
The compounds of formula (I) having a nitro substituent can be converted into their corresponding amines by stirring and, if desired, heating the starting nitro-compounds in a hydrogen-containing medium in the presence of a suitable amount of an appropriate catalyst such as, for example, platinum-on-charcoal, palladium-on-charcoal, Raney-nickel and the like catalysts. Suitable solvents are, for example, alcohols, e.g., methanol, ethanol and the like.
Halo atoms substituted on aryl groups may be replaced by hydrogen following art-known hydrogenolysis procedures, i.e. by stirring and, if desired, heating the starting compounds in a suitable solvent under hydrogen atmosphere in the presence of an appropriate catalyst, e.g., palladium-on-charcoal and the like catalysts. Said halo atoms may also be replaced by a lower alkyloxy or a lower alkylthio substituent by reacting the starting halo-compound with an appropriate alcohol or thioalcohol or, preferably, an alkali- or earth alkaline metal salt or an appropriate alcohol or thioalcohol in a suitable solvent.
The compounds of formula (I) wherein L is a radical (g) wherein Y is NH can be converted into a compound of formula (I) wherein L is a radical (g) wherein Y is N--CO(lower alkyl) or N--CO(Ar.sup.2) by reacting the starting amine with an appropriate carboxylic acid or a derivative thereof such as, for example, an acid halide, an acid anhydride and the like.
In all of the foregoing and in the following preparations, the reaction products may be isolated from the reaction mixture and, if necessary, further purified according to methodologies generally known in the art.
The compounds of formula (I) have basic properties and, consequently, they may be converted to their therapeutically active non-toxic acid addition salt forms by treatment with appropriate acids, such as, for example, inorganic acids, such as hydrohalic acid, e.g. hydrochloric, hydrobromic and the like, and sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid and the like; or organic acids, such as, for example, acetic, propanoic, hydroxyacetic, 2-hydroxypropanoic, 2-oxopropanoic, propanedioic, butanedioic, (Z)-2-butenedioic, (E)-2-butenedioic, 2-hydroxybutanedioic, 2,3-dihydroxybutanedioic, 2-hydroxy-1,2,3-propanetricarboxylic, methanesulfonic, ethanesulfonic, benzenesulfonic, 4-methylbenzenesulfonic, cyclohexanesulfamic, 2-hydroxybenzoic, 4-amino-2-hydroxybenzoic and the like acids.
Conversely the salt form can be converted by treatment with alkali into the free base form.
A number of intermediates and starting materials in the foregoing preparations are known compounds which may be prepared according to art-known methodologies of preparing said or similar compounds and some intermediates are new. A number of such preparation methods will be described hereinafter in more detail.
The intermediates of formula (III-a) can conveniently be prepared starting from a thiourea derivative of formula ##STR17## wherein P is an appropriate protective group such as, for example, lower alkyloxycarbonyl, Ar.sup.2 --CH.sub.2 --O--CO--, Ar.sup.2 --CH.sub.2 -- and the like, by a cyclodesulfurization reaction following the same procedure as described hereinabove for the preparation of (I) starting from (X) and, subsequently eliminating the protective group P in the thus obtained intermediate of formula ##STR18##
The elimination of the protective group P in (XII) may generally be carried out following art-known procedures such as, for example, by hydrolysis in alkaline or acidic aqueous medium.
The intermediates of formula (III-b) and (III-c) may be derived from the corresponding intermediates of formula (III-a) by reacting the latter with a suitable reagent following art-known N-alkylating procedures.
For example, intermediates of formula (III-b) wherein Q.sub.2a represents a radical of formula H.sub.2 N--CH.sub.2 --Alk'--, (III-b-1), can also be prepared by reacting an intermediate of formula (III-a) with a nitrile of formula (XIII) following art-known N-alkylating procedures and subsequently converting the thus obtained nitrile (XIV) into the corresponding amine (III-b-1) following art-known nitrile to amine reducing procedures, e.g., by catalytically hydrogenating procedures and the like. ##STR19##
In (XIII), (XIV) and (III-b-1) Alk' has the same meaning as Alk provided that one methylene function is missing.
The intermediates of formula (III-b) wherein Q.sub.2a represents a radical of formula HY'--CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --, (III-b-2), may also be prepared by the reaction of (III-a) with a reagent of formula (XV) by stirring and, if desired, heating the reactants together in a suitable solvent. ##STR20##
The intermediates of formula (III-b) wherein Q.sub.2a is a radical of formula HX--Alk--, (III-d), may be converted into an intermediate of formula (III-c) by converting the function XH into an appropriate leaving group, e.g., where X is O, by converting a hydroxy function into a chloro atom, with thionyl chloride, phosphoryl chloride and the like. ##STR21##
The intermediates of formula (III-b-1) may also be derived from an appropriate corresponding carbonyl-oxidated form by reacting said carbonyl-oxidated form with hydroxylamine and reducing the thus obtained oxime following art-known methods, e.g., catalytic hydrogenation and the like reducing methods.
During one of the reactions the intermediates wherein R.sup.1 and/or R.sup.2 and/or R.sup.3 and/or R.sup.4 is hydrogen may be converted into the corresponding intermediates wherein R.sup.1 and/or R.sup.2 and/or R.sup.3 and/or R.sup.4 is other than hydrogen following art-known N-alkylating, N-acylating or reductive N-alkylating procedures.
The intermediates of formula (XI) may be prepared by reacting a piperidine of formula (XVI-a) or (XVI-b) with an aromatic reagent of formula (XVII-a) or (XVII-b). ##STR22##
The intermediates of formulae (III-b) and (XIV) wherein A is a radical having the formula (c), (d) or (e), (III-b-2), respectively (XIV-a) are new and as intermediates as well as antihistaminic agents and serotonin-antagonists these 3H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2-amines, 1H-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-amines and 1H-imidazo[4,5-c]pyridin-2-amines of formulae (III-b) and (XIV) constitute an additional purpose of the present invention.
The compounds of formula (I) and the intermediates of formula (III-b-2) and (XIV-a) wherein A is a radical of formula --CH.dbd.N--CH.dbd.CH--, --CH.dbd.CH--N.dbd.CH-- or --CH.dbd.CH--CH.dbd.N--, N being attached to the carbon atom in 4-position of the imidazole ring, said A being represented by A' and said intermediates by the formula ##STR23## and the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof, wherein L' is a radical of formula --Alk'--CN, --Alk--Y'H, ##STR24## or --Alk--Y--C(.dbd.X)--Z'H are useful as anti-allergic agents.
From formula (I) and (XVIII) it is evident that the compounds of this invention may have several asymmetric carbon atoms in their structure. Each of these chiral centers may be present in a R- and a S-configuration, this R- and S-notation being in correspondence with the rules described by R. S. Cahn, C. Ingold and V. Prelog in Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. Engl., 5, 385, 511 (1966).
Pure stereochemically isomeric forms of the compounds of formula (I) and (XVIII) may be obtained by the application of art-known procedures. Diastereoisomers may be separated by physical separation methods such as selective crystallization and chromatographic techniques, e.g., counter current distribution, and enantiomers may be separated from each other by the selective crystallization of their diastereomeric salts with optically active acids.
Pure stereochemically isomeric forms may also be derived from the corresponding pure stereochemically isomeric forms of the appropriate starting materials, provided that the reaction occurs stereospecifically.
It is evident that the cis and trans diastereomeric racemates may be further resolved into their optical isomers, cis(+), cis(-), trans(+) and trans(-) by the application of methodologies known to those skilled in the art.
Stereochemically isomeric forms of the compounds of formula (I) and the intermediates of formula (XVIII) are naturally intended to be embraced within the scope of the invention.
The useful antihistaminic properties of the compounds of formula (I) and of the intermediates of formula (XVIII) are demonstrated in the following test procedure.
Protection of rats from compound 48/80-induced lethality
Compound 48/80, a mixture of oligomers obtained by condensation of 4-methoxy-N-methylbenzeneethanamine and formaldehyde has been described as a potent histamine releasing agent (Int. Arch. Allergy, 13, 336 (1958)). The protection from compound 48/80-induced lethal circulatory collapse appears to be a simple way of evaluating quantitatively the antihistaminic activity of test compounds. Male rats of an inbred Wistar strain, weighing 240-260 g were used in the experiment. After overnight starvation the rats were transferred to conditioned laboratories (temp.=21.+-.1.degree. C., relative humidity-65.+-.5%).
The rats were treated subcutaneously or orally with a test compound or with the solvent (NaCl solution, 0.9%). One hour after treatment there was injected intravenously compound 48/80, freshly dissolved in water, at a dose of 0.5 mg/kg (0.2 ml/100 g of body weight). In control experiments, wherein 250 solvent-treated animals were injected with the standard dose of compound 48/80, not more than 2.8% of the animals survived after 4 hours. Survival after 4 hours is therefore considered to be a safe criterion of a protective effect of drug administration.
The ED.sub.50 -values of the compounds of formula (I) and the intermediates of formula (XVIII) are listed in the first column of table 1 and table 2. Said ED.sub.50 -values are the values in mg/kg body weight at which the tested compounds protect 50% of the tested animals against compound 48/80-induced lethality.
The compounds of formula (I), the intermediates of formula (XVIII) and the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof are also potent serotonin-antagonists.
The potency of the subject compounds as serotonin-antagonists is clearly evidenced by the results obtained in the following tests wherein the antagonistic activity of the subject compounds on the effect of serotonin is examined.
Antagonistic activity on the effects of serotonin in the gastric lesion test
A. Lesions induced by compound 48/80
Compound 48/80 (a mixture of oligomers obtained by condensation of 4-methoxy-N-methylbenzeneethanamine and formaldehyde) is a potent releaser of vasoactive amines from endogenous stores such as, for example, histamine and serotonin. Rats injected with compound 48/80 exhibit consistent changes of blood flow in different vascular beds: cyanosis of the ears and the extremities are prominent within five minutes after injection of the compound; the rats die from shock within 30 minutes. The shock, followed by dead, can be avoided if the rats are pretreated with a classical H 1-antagonist.
However the stimulatory effects on gastric secretion are not suppressed so that rats treated with compound 48/80 and protected from shock by an H 1-antagonist may exhibit all signs of intensive gastric gland activity; gross autopsy shows distended stomachs with abnormal contents and rough bright red patches all over the mucosa, corresponding to areas of disintegrated glands. A number of known serotonin-antagonists such as, for example, methysergide, cyproheptadine; cinanserin, mianserin, pipamperone, spiperone, pizotifen and metergoline, prevent completely the cyanosis of ears and extremities as well as the lesions in the glandular area of the stomach and the abnormal gastric distension.
B. Method
Male rats of a Wistar inbred strain, weighing 220-250 g, were starved overnight, water being available ad libitum. The test compounds were administered orally as a solution or as a suspension in aqueous medium. A control rat and a "blank" rat received the test compound. One hour later 5-[4-(diphenylmethyl)-1-piperazinylmethyl]-1-methyl-1H-benzimidazole-2-methanol was administered subcutaneously to all rats at the dose of 2.5 mg/kg. Two hours after the oral or subcutaneous administration of the test compound, the compound 48/80 (freshly solved in water at a concentration of 0.25 mg/ml) was injected intravenously into all rats (dose: 1 mg/kg) except the "blank" rats.
Four hours after the intravenous injection of compound 48/80, the rats were decapitated and the stomachs were removed. Subsequently the stomachs were inspected for distension and contents (blood, fluid, food) and thoroughly rinsed. The macroscopic lesions were scored from 0 to +++, 0 corresponding to complete absence of visible lesions and the highest score corresponding to reddish rough patches covering more than half the glandular area.
The second column of Tables 1 and 2 shows for a number of compounds of formula (I) and the intermediates of formula (XVIII) the doses (in mg/kg body weight) at which the distension of the stomach as well as the lesions in the glandular area of the stomach are completely absent in 50% of the test rats (ED.sub.50 -value).
The columns in Tables 1 and 2 with heading "N" illustrate the absence or the presence of N in the aromatic ring and the place of N in the said ring.
In the tables 1 and 2 "b" has the meaning of branch chained hydrocarbon radicals.
The compounds listed in Tables 1 and 2 are not given for the purpose of limiting the invention thereto but only to exemplify the useful pharmacological activities of all the compounds within the scope of formula (I) and of all the intermediates within the scope of formula (XVIII).

In view of their antihistaminic and serotonin-antagonistic properties, the compounds of formula (I), the intermediates of formula (XVIII) and their acid-addition salts are very useful in the treatment of allergic diseases such as, for example, allergic rhinitis, allergic conjunctivities, chronic urticaria, allergic astma and the like.
In view of their useful antihistaminic and serotonin-antagonistic acitivity, the subject compounds may be formulated into various pharmaceutical forms for administration purposes. To prepare the pharmaceutical compositions of this invention, an effective amount of the particular compound, in base or acid-addition salt form, as the active ingredient is combined in intimate admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, which carrier may take a wide variety of forms depending on the form of preparation desired for administration.
These pharmaceutical compositions are desirably in unitary dosage form suitable, preferably, for administration orally, rectally or by parental injection. For example, in preparing the compositions in oral dosage form, any of the usual pharmaceutical media may be employed, such as, for example, water, glycols, oils, alcohols and the like in the case of oral liquid preparations such as suspensions, syrups, elixirs and solutions: or solid carriers such as starches, sugars, kaolin, lubricants, binders, disintegrating agents and the like in the case of powders, pills, capsules and tablets. Because of their ease in administration, tablets and capsules represent the most advantageous oral dosage unit form, in which case solid pharmaceutical carriers are obviously employed. For parenteral compositions, the carrier will usually comprise sterile water, at least in large part, though other ingredients, for example, to aid solubility, may be included. Injectable solutions, for example, may be prepared in which the carrier comprises saline solution, glucose solution or a mixture of saline and glucose solution. Injectable suspensions may also be prepared in which case appropriate liquid carriers, suspending agents and the like may be employed. Acid addition salts of (I) or (XVIII), due to their increased water solubility over the corresponding base form, are obviously more suitable in the preparation of aqueous compositions.
It is especially advantageous to formulate the aforementioned pharmaceutical compositions in dosage unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage. Dosage unit form as used in the specification and claims herein refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active ingredient calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the required pharmaceutical carrier. Examples of such dosage unit forms are tablets (including scored or coated tablets), capsules, pills, powder packets, wafers, injectable solutions or suspensions, teaspoonfuls, tabletspoonfuls and the like, and segregated multiples thereof.
The present invention is also related with a method of treating allergic diseases in warm-blooded animals suffering from said allergic diseases by administering an effective anti-allergic amount of a compound of formula (I) or (XVIII) or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof.
Suitable doses administered daily to subjects are varying from 0.1 to 100 mg, more preferably from 1 to 50 mg.
The following examples are intented to illustrate and not to limit the scope of the present invention. Unless otherwise stated all parts therein are by weight.
