Naphthalenylsulfonylimidazolidinediones and their thioxo analogs useful as aldose reductase inhibitors

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to substituted naphthalenylsulfonylimidazolidinediones and their thioxo analogs, to processes for their preparation, to methods for using the compounds, and to pharmaceutical preparations thereof. The compounds have pharmaceutical properties which render them beneficial for the treatment of diabetes mellitus and associated conditions.
For many years diabetes mellitus has been treated with two established types of drugs, namely insulin and oral hypoglycemic agents. These drugs have benefited hundreds of thousands of diabetics by improving their well-being and prolonging their lives. However, the resulting longevity of diabetic patients has led to complications such as neuropathy, nephropathy, retinopathy, cataracts and atherosclerosis. These complications have been linked to the undesirable accumulation of sorbitol in diabetic tissue, which in turn resulted from the high levels of glucose characteristic of the diabetic patient.
In mammals, including humans, the key enzyme involved in the conversion of hexoses to polyols (e.g. the sorbitol pathway) is aldose reductase. J. H. Kinoshita and collaborators [see J. H. Kinoshita et al, Biochem. Biophys. Acta, 158, 472 (1968) and references cited therein] have demonstrated that aldose reductase plays a central role in the etiology of galactosemic cataracts by effecting the conversion of galactose to dulcitol (galactitol) and that an agent capable of inhibiting aldose reductase can prevent the detrimental accumulation of dulcitol in the lens. Furthermore, a relationship between elevated levels of glucose and an undesirable accumulation of sorbitol has been demonstrated in the lens, peripheral nervous cord and kidney of diabetic animals, see A. Pirie and R. van Heyningen, Exp. Eye Res., 3, 124 (1964); L. T. Chylack and J. H. Kinoshita, Invest. Ophthal., 8, 401 (1969) and J. D. Ward and R. W. R. Baker, Diabetol., 6, 531 (1970).
The relevant prior art is as follows.
K. Sestanj, et al, U.S. Pat. No. 4,568,693, Feb. 4, 1986, disclose N-naphthoylglycine derivatives effective as aldose reductase inhibitors. J. Okuda et al, Japanese Patent No. 58/109-418-A (1981); K. Inagaki et al, Chem. Pharm. Bull., 30(9), 3244-3254 (1982); I. Miwa, et al, Chem. Pharm. Bull., 32(5), 2030-2032 (1984); and J. Okuda, et al, Chem. Pharm. Bull., 33(7), 2990-2995 (1985) disclose 1-(phenylsulphonyl)hydantoins useful as aldose reductase inhibitors. V. G. Zubenko, et al, Farmatsevt Zh. (Kiev) 16(2), 10-15 (1961) disclose derivatives of azolidine useful as antidiabetic compounds. I. S. Bengelsdorf, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 75, 3138-3140 (1953) discloses preparation of benzenesulfonylhydantoins.
Japanese patent application publication number Ja.15187/68 discloses sulfonyl hydantoin derivatives substituted on the carbon atom of the hydantoin ring. These compounds have anti-convulsant activity.
The present application discloses novel substituted naphthalenylsulfonylimidazolidinediones and their thioxo analogs represented below by formula (I), which are more effective inhibitors of aldose reductase than the reported benzenesulfonylhydantoins. They are useful for the treatment of conditions associated with diabetes mellitus such as neuropathy, retinopathy, nephropathy, cataracts and atherosclerosis. The compounds of formula (I) below increase visual acuity. These compounds show hypoglycemic activity and are useful in the treatment of some forms of diabetes. They also stabilize the weight of the subject by inhibiting weight gain. These compounds are also useful for the treatment of cardiac autonomic dysfunction and for lowering blood pressure.
These compounds are free of central nervous system side effects such as anti-convulsant activity.

The naphthalenylsulfonylimidazolinediones and their thioxo analogs were prepared by the processes described hereinafter.
A method is provided for preventing or relieving diabetes mellitus associated complications in a diabetic mammal by administering to said mammal a prophylactic or alleviating amount of the compound of formula (I). Such complications include neuropathy, nephropathy, retinopathy and cataracts.
The compound of formula (I), when admixed with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, forms a pharmaceutical composition which can be used according to the preceding method.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The naphthalenylsulfonylimidazolidinediones and their thioxo analogs of this invention may be administered to mammals, for example, man, cattle or rabbits, either alone or in dosage forms, i.e., capsules or tablets, combined with pharmacologically acceptable excipients.
The compounds of this invention may be given orally. However, the method of administering the present active ingredients of this invention is not to be construed as limited to a particular mode of administration. For example, the compounds may be administered topically directly to the eye in the form of drops of sterile, buffered ophthalmic solutions, preferably of pH 7.2-7.6. Also, they may be administered orally in solid form containing such excipients as starch, milk sugar, certain types of clay and so forth. They may also be administered orally in the form of solutions or they may be injected parenterally. For parenteral administration they may be used in the form of a sterile solution, preferably of pH 7.2-7.6, containing a pharmaceutically acceptable buffer.
The dosage of the naphthalenylsulfonylimidazolidinediones and their thioxo analogs will vary with the form of administration and the particular compound chosen. Furthermore, it will vary with the particular host under treatment. Generally, treatment is initiated with small dosages substantially less than the optimal dose of the compound. Therefore, the dosage is increased by small increments until efficacy is obtained. In general, the compounds of this invention are most desirably administered at a concentration level that will generally afford effective results without causing any harmful or deleterious side effects. For topical administration, a 0.05-0.2% solution may be administered dropwise in the eye. The frequency of instillation varies with the subject under treatment from a drop every two or three days to once daily. For oral or parenteral administration a preferred level of dosage ranges from about 0.1 mg to about 200 mg per kilo of body weight per day, although aforementioned variations will occur. However, a dosage level that is in the range of from about 3.0 mg to about 30 mg per kilo of body weight per day is most satisfactory.
Unit dosage forms such as capsules, tablets, pills and the like may contain from about 5.0 mg to about 250 mg of the active ingredients of this invention with a pharmaceutical carrier. Thus, for oral administration, capsules can contain from between about 5.0 mg to about 250 mg of the active ingredients of this invention with or without a pharmaceutical diluent. Tablets, either effervescent or noneffervescent, can contain between about 5.0 to 250 mg of the active ingredients of this invention together with conventional pharmaceutical carriers. Thus, tablets, which may be coated and either effervescent or noneffervescent, may be prepared according to the known art. Inert diluents or carriers, for example, magnesium carbonate or lactose, can be used together with conventional disintegrating agents for example, magnesium stearate.
The naphthalenylsulfonylimidazolidinediones and their thioxo analogs also can be used in combination with insulin or oral hypoglycemic agents to produce a beneficial effect in the treatment of diabetes mellitus. In this instance, commercially available insulin preparations or oral hypoglycemic agents, exemplified by acetohexamide, chlorpropamide, tolazamide, tolbutamide and phenformin, are suitable. The compounds hereof can be administered sequentially or simultaneously with insulin or the oral hypoglycemic agent. Suitable methods of administration, compositions and doses of the insulin preparation or oral hypoglycemic agent are described in medical textbooks; for instance, "Physicians' Desk Reference", 36 ed., Medical Economics Co., Oradell, N.J., U.S.A., 1982.
The aldose reductase inhibiting property of the compounds of this invention and the utilization of the compounds in preventing, diminishing and alleviating diabetic complications are demonstrable in experiments using galactosemic rats, see Dvornik et al., cited above. Such experiments are exemplified hereinbelow after the listing of the following general comments pertaining to these experiments:
(a) Four or more groups of six male rats, 50-70 g, Sprague-Dawley strain, were used. The first group, the control group, was fed a mixture of laboratory chow (rodent Laboratory Chow, Purina) and glucose at 20% (w/w %) concentration. The untreated galactosemic group was fed a similar diet in which galactose is substituted for glucose. The third group was fed a diet prepared by mixing a given amount of the test compound with the galactose containing diet. The concentration of galactose in the diet of the treated groups was the same as that for the untreated galactosemic group.
(b) After four days, the animals were killed by decapitation. The eyeballs were removed and punctured with a razor blade; the freed lenses were rolled gently on filter paper and weighed. The sciatic nerves were dissected as completely as possible and weighed. Both tissues when frozen can be kept up to two weeks before being analyzed for dulcitol.
(c) The polyol determination was performed by a modification of the procedure of M. Kraml and L. Cosyns, Clin. Biochem., 2,373 (1969). Only two minor reagent changes were made: (a) The rinsing mixture was an aqueous 5% (w/v) trichloroacetic acid solution and (b) the stock solution was prepared by dissolving 25 mg of dulcitol in 100 ml of an aqueous trichloroacetic acid solution. [N.B.: For each experiment the average value found in the tissue from rats fed the glucose diet was subtracted from the individual values found in the corresponding tissue in galactose-fed rats to obtain the amount of polyol accumulated.] The aldose reductase inhibiting effects of the compounds of formula (I) were also tested by employing an in vitro testing procedure similar to that described by S. Hayman and J. H. Kinoshita, J. Biol. Chem., 240, 877 (1965).
In the present case the procedure of Hayman and Kinoshita was modified in that the final chromatography step was omitted in the preparation of the enzyme from bovine lens.
The following tabulated results show that the naphthalenylsulfonylimidazolidinediones and their thioxo analogs of this invention show the property that they are active both in vitro and in vivo and diminish the accumulation of dulcitol in the lenses, sciatic nerves and diaphragm of rats fed galactose. The figures under L, N and D represent the percentage decrease of dulcitol accumulation in the tissues of the lens, sciatic nerve and diaphragm, respectively, for treated rats as compared to untreated rats.
Examination of the results tabulated below show that the naphthalenylsulfonylimidazolidinediones and their thioxo analogs of this invention are quite potent as aldose reductose inhibitors. For example, the compound of Example No. 2 1-[(5-bromo-1-naphthalenyl)sulfonyl]-2,4-imidazolidinedione in Table 1, at a dose of 4.8 and 10.2 mg/kg/day gives comparable results to the last compound in Table 1, N-[[6-methoxy-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1-naphthalenyl]thioxomethyl]-N-methylglycine at a dose of 4 and 11 mg/kg/day.

The Process
The naphthalenylsulfonylimidazolidinediones and their thioxo analogs were prepared by the following reaction schemes, wherein R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 are as defined above. ##STR6##
The process for the production of the compounds of formula (I) ##STR7## wherein R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6, R.sup.7 and X are as defined above comprises
Step (a) reacting the sulfonyl chloride of formula (IV) ##STR8## wherein R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 are as defined above with glycine (Process A), methyl glycinate (Process D) or glycinamide (Process B and C) to produce the sulfonyl glycine compound of formula (V) ##STR9## wherein R.sup.1 is hydroxy, methoxy or amino respectively and R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 are as defined above.
Step (a) is carried out in the presence of base to neutralize the acid formed during the reaction.
The sulfonyl chlorides of formula (IV) required for the present invention are commercially available compounds or can be prepared by known methods. One such method is illustrated in Process B herein below wherein the corresponding carboxylic acid is converted to the required sulfonyl chloride via the azide and amine by conventional methods.
The sulfonyl chloride compound (IV) can be reacted with glycine directly (Process A). However, reaction with methyl glycinate (Process D) or with glycine having a suitable blocking group at the carboxylic end results in a higher yield and purer product. It is a preferred route even though the additional step (b) of hydrolyzing the esters of formula (V) wherein R.sup.1 is methoxy to produce the compound of formula (V) wherein R.sup.1 is hydroxy is required.
The compound of formula (V) wherein R.sup.1 is hydroxyl is cyclized (step c) by reaction with ammonium thiocyanate, NH.sub.4 SCN (Process A and D) in the presence of acetic anhydride to produce the thiohydantoin of formula (I:X=S) ##STR10## wherein R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 are as defined above. The compounds of structure (I:X.dbd.S) represents one group of compounds claimed in the present invention.
The thiohydantoins of formula (I:X=S) are hydrolyzed with chloroacetic acid, ClCH.sub.2 CO.sub.2 H (step d) to produce the desired hydantoins of formula (I:X=O) (Process A and D) ##STR11## wherein R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 are as defined above. The compounds of structure (I:X.dbd.O) also represent a group of compounds claimed in the present invention.
The hydrolysis with chloroacetic acid requires drastic conditions such as heating at 100.degree. C. to 140.degree. C. for approximately 24 hours. In those cases where this process results in poor yields, the desired hydantoins (I:X=O) were obtained by (step e) cyclizing the compounds of formula (V) wherein R.sup.1 is amino with sodium hydride and methyl chloroformate (Process B and C) to produce the desired hydantoins of formula (I:X=O) directly.
The chemical bases which are used as reagents in this invention to prepare the aforementioned pharmaceutically acceptable salts are those which form non-toxic salts with the various herein described acidic sulfonylmidazolidinediones and their thioxo analogs, such as 1-[(5-bromo-1-naphthalenyl)sulfonyl]-2,4-imidazolidinedione, for example. These particular non-toxic base salts are of such a nature that their cations are said to be essentially non-toxic in character over the wide range of dosage administered. Examples of such cations include those of sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium, etc. These salts can easily be prepared by simply treating the aforementioned sulfonyl imidazolidinediones and their thioxo analogs with an aqueous solution of the desired pharmacologically acceptable cation and then isolating by filtration or evaporation the resulting salts.
Alternatively, they may also be prepared by mixing organic solutions of the said acidic compounds and the desired alkali metal hydroxide together and then isolating the resulting salts by precipitation in non-polar solvent. In either case, stoichiometric quantities of reagents must be employed in order to ensure completeness of reaction and maximum production yields with respect to the desired final product.
Compound 1-[[5-(dimethylamino)-1-naphthalenyl]sulfonyl]-2,4-imidazolidinedione and its thioxo analog can also be used as the hydrochloride salt. This salt is a result of the basic 5-dimethylamino group. Passage of gaseous hydrochloric acid through an ethereal solution of the said compound gives the hydrochloride salt.

Step (a) Preparation of 6-Methoxy-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1-naphthalene amine.
6-Methoxy-5-(trifluoromethyl)-1-naphthalenecarboxylic acid (30.0 g, 1.11.times.10.sup.-1 M) was stirred in thionyl chloride (120 mL) at 20.degree. C. under nitrogen. Dimethylformamide (0.75 mL, anhydrous) was added, and the mixture was refluxed for 4 hours. The solvent and excess of thionyl chloride were evaporated under reduced pressure. Toluene (200 mL) was added, the solvent re-evaporated and the residual solid was dried (20.degree. C./0.1 mm). The white solid was dissolved in acetone (300 mL), cooled to 0.degree. C. and a solution of sodium azide (7.8 g, 1.19.times.10.sup.-1 M) in water (25 mL) was added dropwise (precipitate formation). The mixture was stirred at 0.degree. C. for 30 minutes, diluted to 600 mL volume with water, stirred for 1 hour at 0.degree. C., filtered, and the filtered solid was washed with water (2.times.200 mL). The damp solid (Any azides are generally unsafe to handle.) was dissolved in toluene (400 mL), and the filtrate concentrated to 280 mL under reduced pressure, refluxed for 1 hour, then cooled to 20.degree. C. Potassium hydroxide (40% aq, 200 mL) was added. The resultant mixture was refluxed for 1 hour, cooled to 30.degree. C., and filtered. The filtered solid (This solid is an unwanted side product. Care should be taken to avoid precipitation of the desired product from toluene during filtration.) was washed with water (200 mL), and toluene (200 mL). The filtrate and washings were combined. The organic layer was separated, washed with water (200 mL), dried (MgSO.sub.4), filtered, and solvent evaporated to furnish the product (19.0 g, 84%) m.p. 120.degree. C. as a white powder.

The white hydrochloride salt precipitated. The flask was placed over a dry ice-ethanol bath, and shaken. When the temperature of the stirred mixture reached -10.degree. C., a solution of sodium nitrite (1.0 g, 1.45.times.10.sup.-2 M) in water (5 mL) was added dropwise at such a rate that the temperature did not exceed -5.degree. C. After all the sodium nitrite solution was added, the mixture was stirred for 1 hour while the temperature was maintained between -10.degree. C., and -5.degree. C. While the diazotization was being completed, glacial acetic acid (30 mL) was saturated with sulfur dioxide (gas), cuprous chloride (0.44 g, 4.44.times.10.sup.-3 M) was added, and the introduction of sulfur dioxide was continued until the yellow-green suspension became blue-green. The mixture was cooled to 20.degree. C., and the diazotization reaction mixture was added, warmed slowly to 50.degree. C., stirred at 50.degree. C. (1 hour), until foaming ceased, then cooled, and poured into ice water (300 mL). The resultant mixture was extracted with ether (2.times.100 mL). The combined organic layer was washed with water (3.times.100 mL), saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate until neutral, then with water (100 mL), dried (MgSO.sub.4) filtered and evaporated under reduced pressure to yield an oil, which was flash chromatographed on silica gel (6% ethyl acetate-hexane) to yield the product as a yellow solid. The yellow solid was recrystallized from ether hexanes to yield the pure product (1.8 g, 50%) m.p. 60.degree.-62.degree. C. as a white crystalline solid.
