The present invention relates to new pyrazole derivatives and diabetic medicine which have those compounds as an active ingredient.
Na+-dependent glucose transporter (SGLT) is a membrane protein which transports glucose, and SGLT-1 and SGLT-2 are known. SGLT-2 mainly expresses in renal uriniferous tubules. Glucose that is filtered in glomeruli is reabsorbed at the renal uriferous tubules via SGLT, and the glucose taken is reused in the body through the bloodstream. When SGLT is inhibited, the amount of the glucose reabsorbed at renal uriniferous tubules lowers, and the glucose is discharged through urine. As a result, it is considered that the level of blood sugar decreases. At the present time, no medicine is clinically used such as that inhibiting reabsorption of glucose in the kidney.
The object of the present invention is to provide new pyrazole derivatives.
The object of the present invention is also to provide a pharmaceutical composition containing the new compounds.
The object of the present invention is also to provide a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment of diabetes which comprises the new compound.
The object of the present invention is to find and provide diabetic-medicine which is easy to synthesize, less toxic and has higher curative effect.
The present invention also intends to provide urinary sugar excretion inducers which have the new compounds.
Further, the present invention intends to provide the use of the new compounds for producing a pharmaceutical composition which reduces renal glucose reabsorption at renal uriniferous tubules.
The inventors have synthesized various derivatives (1A) or (1B) wherein glucose (namely, β-D-glucopyranose) or glucuronic acid (namely, β-D-glucopyranoside uronic acid) is bonded to pyrazole, and vigorously investigated the action of those derivatives on urinary sugar excretion. As the result of animal tests, they have found that the compounds of general formula (1A) or (1B) have the outstanding action on urinary sugar excretion and completed the present invention. These compounds have not ever been synthesized and, therefore, are completely new pyrazole-O-glycoside derivatives and pyrazole-O-glucuronide derivatives.
Namely, the present invention provides pyrazole derivatives of the following general formula (1A) or (1B) or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof:

The structures of the compounds shown in Example 1 to 16 and Referential Example 1 are described as follows:
The test compound was dissolved in 100 mM Mannitol-10 mM HEPES/Tris (pH7.4) and solutions having various concentrations were prepared. Renal brush border membrane was prepared from a rat kidney and the solutions of the test compounds were added thereto and the product was incubated at 37° C. for 30 minutes. Then 14C-D-glucose was added and the mixture was incubated for 1 minute. After the reaction of glucose uptake was stopped by a solution containing 1 mM of phloridzin, the activity of 14C-D-glucose on 14C was measured by a liquid scintillation counter. The intensity of inhibition was calculated by subtracting the amount of taken glucose that is independent on sodium from the amount of taken glucose of the object samples. The results of the evaluation are shown in Table 1.
5-week old male Wistar rats (purchased from Charles River Japan, Inc.) were used in the experiment after they were housed in a metabolic cage for about one week in advance. The test compounds were suspended in olive oil and 20 mg/ml solution was prepared so that the dosage given per 1 kg of the weight of the rats was 5 ml.
After the rats were not fed for 4 hours, the test compounds were orally administered to them at 11 a.m. Their urine was collected, from that taken just after the administration to that taken 24 hours after the administration and its volume was measured. Then, the concentration of glucose in urine was measured by glucose oxidase method and urinary glucose excreted per a day and an individual was calculated. The results are shown in Table 2.
It is obvious from the results shown above that the new pyrazole derivatives have higher inhibiting activity on glucose uptake and activity on urinary glucose excretion.
Especially, the inventors have found that the compounds wherein the substituents of hydroxyl group of glucopyranosyl group are lower alkoxycarbonyl group such as methoxy carbonyl group act as, so-called, a prodrug and the compounds in the present invention have high activity on urinary glucose excretion when they are orally administered.
The inventors also have found that the compounds wherein any one of R1, R2, R4, or R5 of general formula (1A) has a fluorine atom have particularly high activity on urinary glucose excretion. It is obvious from Example 10 and Example 14.
Further, they have found that the compound of Example 16 has particularly high activity on urinary glucose excretion. Example compound 16, which has high activity on urinary glucose excretion, still has high activity when the compound is orally administered in lower doses such as 30 mg/kg or lower. The intended compound is not specifically described in WO01/16147.
Besides, Table 2 shows that the compounds of the present invention such as example compounds 10, 14 and 16 have much higher activity on urinary glucose excretion, as compared to Example 35 of WO01/16147 (Referential Example 1 of the present specification).
Namely, new pyrazole derivatives of the present invention show outstanding antidiabetic activity and, therefore, they are highly useful in the pharmaceutical industry.
