O-aminoalkylene (or aminoalkyleneoxy) phenylsulfone compounds having anti-ulcer effect

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a class of novel arylsulfone compounds. The arylsulfone compounds of this invention and the pharmaceutically acceptable addition salts thereof have excellent anti-ulcer effect.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Various compounds have hitherto been proposed as anti-ulcer agents. Inter alia, cimetidine, which is a histamine H.sub.2 -receptor blocker, is widely used because of excellent anti-ulcer effect. However, some misgivings have been pointed out with respect to several problems encountered with cimetidine. (Refer to NIKKEI MEDICAL, 14 May, 1984, p. 26-34.)
We have made an extensive study in search of compounds which have chemical structures entirely different from those which have been proposed so far and have excellent anti-ulcer activity, and have found that 1-[4-(methylamino)-butoxy]-2-(phenylsulfonyl)benzene (Journal of Medical Chemistry, Vol. 24, No. 2, 145-148 (1981)) and related compounds have unexpected anti-ulcer activity, and upon extending our study to further encompass different compounds we attained this invention.

Groups (each 5 animals) of non-starved male rats of Douryu strain (available from Shizuoka Laboratory Animal Center, 220-250 g) were each put into a wire net stress cage and were immersed in water of 22.+-.1.degree. C. to their xiphoid process in order to apply stress to the animals. After 15 hours, the animals were killed and their stomachs were removed. The stomachs were each infused with about 15 ml of 1% formalin and fixed by soaking them in 1% formalin for 10 minutes. The stomachs were then incised along the curvatura ventriculi major and the greatest diameter of any ulcer produced at glandular portions was microscopically measured (.times.10), the summation of the measured lengths being taken as the ulcer index (mm). Drugs were suspended in a 1% gum arabic solution and orally administered in doses of 2 ml/kg 30 minutes before applying stress. Control groups were given only 1% gum arabic solution and their ulcer indices were compared with those of the groups to which the drugs were administered. The inhibition percentage of each tested drug was calculated. Total administered amount of each tested drug was 50 mg/kg.
The test results are summarized in Table 1. Compound numbers in the table correspond to Example numbers.

EXAMPLE 1
5-[2-(phenylsulfonyl)phenoxy]-N-methylpentylamine hydrochloric acid salt
2-Hydroxydiphenylsulfone (23.4 g) is dissolved in 100 ml of toluene and is mixed with 4.5 g of sodium hydroxide dissolved in 40 ml of water, 82 ml of 1,5-dibromopentane and 1.6 g of tetrabutylammonium bromide, and the mixture is stirred at 60.degree. C. for 3 hours. After cooling, the residue is removed by filtration and the organic layer is separated, washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, evaporated under reduced pressure. Eighty (80) g of methanol is added to the obtained syrup. The deposited crystals are collected by filtration and dried, thus a bromo derivative (32.1 g) having a melting point of 93.degree.-94.degree. C. is obtained.
Three (3.0) g of this bromo derivative is dissolved in 10 ml of tetrahydrofuran, 5.5 ml of a 40% aqueous solution of monomethylamine is added to the solution, and the solution is allowed to stand overnight at room temperature. The solution is then concentrated under reduced pressure, the oily residue is dissolved in ethyl acetate and saturated solution of sodium hydrogen carbonate is added to the solution, and the organic layer is then collected. The organic layer is washed with saturated salt water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, evaporated under reduced pressure to dryness. The residue is chromatographed on a column of silica gel.
The obtained syrup is dissolved in 10 ml of ethanol, and 0.9 ml of a 30% hydrochloric acid-ethanol mixture is added to the solution. The deposited crystals are collected by filtration, dried and thus 2.2 g of 5-[2-(phenylsulfonyl)phenoxy-N-methylpentylamine hydrochloric acid salt having a melting point of 146.degree.-147.degree. C. is obtained.
Also, 3.0 g of the above bromo derivative is mixed with 6 ml of tetrahydrofuran, 2.2 ml of triethylamine and 1.9 g of N-methylbenzylamine, and the mixture is stirred under refluxing for 3 hours.
After cooling, the deposited crystals are removed by filtration and the filtrate is evaporated under reduced pressure to dryness. To the residue are added ethyl acetate and 2 N aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide, and the ethyl acetate layer is collected. The ethyl acetate layer is washed with saturated salt solution, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and 3.1 ml of a 20% hydrochloric acid-ethyl acetate mixture under ice-chilled condition. The deposited crystals are collected by filtration, recrystallized from isopropyl alcohol and thus 3.3 g of 5-[2-(phenylsulfonyl)phenoxy]-N-benzyl-N-methylpentylamine monohydrochloride having a melting point of 165.degree.-167.degree. C. is obtained.
To the thus obtained benzyl derivative monohydrochloride (3.3 g), 20 ml of methanol, 5 ml of water, 0.5 g of 5%-palladium-carbon are added, and reduction with hydrogen is conducted under atmospheric pressure with agitation at 50.degree. C. for 5 hours. After cooling, the catalyst is removed by filtration and the filtrate is evaporated under reduced pressure to dryness. The residue is crystallized from ethanol and thus 2.3 g of 5-[2-(phenylsulfonyl)phenoxy]-N-methylpentylamine hydrochloric acid salt having a melting point of 146.degree.-147.degree. C. is obtained.

To 11.8 g of o-anisidine, 17 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid and 60 ml of water are added, and then 6.6 g of sodium nitrite dissolved in 30 ml of water is added thereto under ice-chilled condition over a 1 hour period. The solution is then added dropwise to a solution of 10.8 g of o-thiocresol and 6.7 g of sodium hydroxide in 45 ml of water at 70.degree. C. over a 4 hour period under agitation. The solution is further stirred at 100.degree. C. for 1 hour. After cooling, benzene extraction is carried out and the benzene layer is washed with water and the benzene is distilled away. The brown oily substance obtained is distilled under reduced pressure and 11.9 g of a sulfide derivative having a boiling point of 142.degree.-145.degree. C./1 mmHg is obtained.
To the thus obtained sulfide derivative (11.9 g), are added 20 ml of acetic acid, 15 ml of 30% hydrogen peroxide solution, and the mixture is stirred at 70.degree. C. for 5 hours for reaction. After reaction, 20 ml of water is added to the mixture, which is cooled, and the deposited crystals are collected by filtration, washed with water, dried and 12.2 g of a sulfone derivative having a melting point of 147.degree.-148.degree. C. is obtained.
The thus obtained sulfone derivative (12.2 g) is dissolved in 60 ml of dichloromethane, and 5.7 ml of boron tribromide dissolved in 15 ml of dichloromethane is added dropwise to the solution under ice-chilled condition. After the solution is stirred for 1 hour under ice-chilled condition, water is added thereto, and the deposited precipitate is removed by filtration. The filtrate is washed, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, and the solvent is distilled off, and thus 10.7 g of a phenol derivative having a melting point of 124.degree.-125.degree. C. is obtained.
From this phenol derivative (10.7 g), 10.0 g of 5-[2-(2-methylphenylsulfonyl)phenoxy]-N-methylpentylamine hydrochloric acid salt having a melting point of 167.degree.-168.degree. C. is obtained in the same manner as in Example 1.
