BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Organosilane-type compounds are commonly known. The types of these compounds described up to the present are very diversified and the number of the specifically characterized compounds is high. Some therapeutical effects or organosilanes have also been published.
Aminoalkylsilanes used for the treatment of Parkinson's disease due to their monoamine oxidase-inhibiting effect are described e.g. in the European patent specification No. 291,781.
N-heterocyclic compounds used for the preparation of pesticides and discussed in the European patent specification No. 224,024, may be considered to be structurally related to the compounds of formula (I).
Fungicidally active nitrogen-containing organosilane derivatives are also known (Latv. PSR Zinat. Akad. Vestis, Kim. Ser. 1978, pp. 343-349).
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Surprisingly, it has been found that the novel organosilane derivatives of the formula (I) containing basic nitrogen, wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2, B and m are as defined above, possess significant muscle relaxant properties. Thus, being central muscular relaxants, the compounds of Formula (I) are useful for treating symptoms such as spastic or rigid muscular hypertonicity of various origins as well as Parkinson's disease and syndrome.
This action was studied by using methods indicating the central muscle relaxant effect as well as the experimental model of Parkinson's disease. The compounds according to the invention were compared on the basis of test results to tolperisone and eperisone as reference drugs showing a similar activity profile.
The methods used and results of our investigations are discussed hereinafter.
Method 1: Test based on the GYKI-20039-induced tremor
Groups consisting of 10 to 20 male CFLP mice each weighing 19 to 21 g were intraperitoneally (i.p.) treated with 10 mg/kg of GYKI-20039 (test substance). Similarly to the structurally related compound of code number LON-954, GYKI-20039 induces a tremor on mice which is considered to be an experimental model of Parkinson's disease[Coward et al., Psychopharmacology 52, 165 (1977); Andrasi et al., IX. Internat. Congress of Neuropathology, I-98, 209, Vienna (1982)]. The GYKI-20039-induced tremor usually reaches a maximum strength at 4 to 8 minutes following the administration of the test substance, thereafter it is continuously decreased and abolished within about one hour. According to our experiences made on ten known central muscle relaxants, this tremor can be inhibited by central muscle relaxants in a dose-dependent manner and it is useful for the assay (determination) of the central muscle relaxant effect.
After administration of the test substance the mice were suspended on an isometric dynamometer in a light plastic box and the strength of the tremor was measured and quantified by electronic integration. The tremor strength of mice was averaged in the 4th-5th minutes following the treatment with 10 the test substance.
The animals were pretreated with various doses of the muscle relaxants to be tested before administration of the test substance. The time of pretreatment was 0 in intravenous examinations, whereas a pretreatment time of 10 minutes was used in oral investigations. The ED.sub.50 value, i.e. the dose causing 50% inhibition, was determined from the logarithmic dose-response curve by linear regression. The arithmetic mean of the integrated activity values of the group treated with the test substance or the untreated control group, respectively was considered to be the inhibition of 50%.
Method 2: Straub's tail test
The method of Novack [Drug Development Res. 2, 383 (1982)] was used with some modification. Groups consisting of 10 male OF-1 mice each weighing 19 to 21 g were intraperitoneally treated with 60 mg/kg of morphine hydrochloride. The formation (development) of Straub's stail was judged by 15 minutes after the morphine treatment. It was considered to be positive when the animal permanently kept his tail upwards in an angle being steeper than 45.degree.. A pretreatment was carried out with various doses of the compound to be tested by 20 minutes before the time of reading. The ED.sub.50 value, i.e. the dose inhibiting the positive response in 50% of the animals, was calculated by using the method of Litchfield and Wilcoxon.
(The above author found a good correlation between the effectivity shown in this test method and the clinical effect of central muscle relaxants.)
Method 3: Flexor reflex on anaesthetized cats
Chloralose-anaesthetized cats of both sexes weighing 2.2 to 5.4 kg each were used in these experiments. The flexor reflex of the animals was assessed by using the quantitative electromyographic method of Farkas et al. [Pharmacol. Res. Comm. 20, Suppl. 1, 141 (1988)].
The effect of 10 mg/kg doses of the various compounds was investigated for evaluation of the strength of activity. Values calculated from the average results of 4 to 8 experiments are summarized in Table 1. For characterization of duration of the effect the time (T75%) is shown, which passed after administration of this dose up to the return to 75% of the control value.
The pharmacological studies showed the compounds of the invention to possess central muscle relaxant and antiparkinsonic effects. The pharmacological activity of compounds exerting the most prominent effects as well as those of tolperisone and eperisone used as reference drugs, are summarized in Table 1.
Each of the compounds appearing in Table resulted in an inhibition of 50 to 80% of the flexor reflex in the dose administered.

It is obvious from the results indicated in Table 1 that, when administered intravenously or intraperitoneally to mice, the effectivity of most of the novel compounds is 2 to 3 times as high as that of the reference drugs. On cats, their inhibitory activity on the flexor reflex was similar to that of both reference drugs, however, the duration of their effect was unexpectedly longer than the 2- to 3-fold of that of the reference drugs.
For the verification of the oral activity the tremor test was used on mice whereas the flexor reflex was investigated by using intraduodenal (i.d.) administration. The results are shown in Table 2.

The results shown in Table 2 indicate that, when administered to mice in the oral route, the compound No. 2 was 10 times as active as tolperisone and 5 times as active as eperisone. On intraduodenal administration to cats the half of the dose of any of both reference drugs was needed to achieve a given effect and simultaneously, the duration of effect of compound No. 2 exceeded even the duration of effect of 4-fold doses of the reference drugs.
Method 4: Study on the acute toxicity
These experiments were carried out on groups consisting of 10 male and 10 female mice each weighing 19 to 21 g. For the determination of the intravenous toxicity the substances to be tested were dissolved in 10 ml/kg of body-weight of physiological saline and injected to the tail vein of CFLP mice during 1 minute. For evaluation of the oral toxicity the substances to be tested were dissolved in 10 ml/kg of body-weight of physiological saline and introduced to the stomach of OF-1 mice by using a rigid gastric tube. The perishing ratio of the animals was evaluated by 48 hours following the administration of the substance to be tested. The LD.sub.50 value, i.e. the dose causing the death of 50% of the animals was calculated by using the method of Litchfield and Wilcoxon. The therapeutic (safety) ratio was determined as the ratio of the LD.sub.50 value to ED.sub.50 value shown in the GYKI-20039-induced tremor test. The acute toxicity values and therapeutic ratios are shown in Table 3.

It can be seen from the results shown in Table 3 that the therapeutic ratio of compound No. 2 is significantly more advantageous in comparison to the reference drugs both in intravenous and oral route of administration.
It is obvious from the pharmacological results that the compounds according to the invention as well as their pharmaceutically acceptable salts and particularly the compound No. 2 as one of the most effective representatives thereof possess excellent central relaxant properties in comparison to the known compounds.
The subject of the present invention is a novel group of organosilane compounds of which many members exert outstanding central muscle relaxant and anti-parkinsonic features on the basis of the pharmacological results. They surpass in many respects the commercially available muscle relaxants, their oral activity is satisfactory and the duration of their effect is long. It can be expected that depending on the body weight, age, sex and route of the administration they exert their therapeutic effect on humans in a daily dose of 5 to 500 mg.
According to an other aspect of the invention, there is provided a process for the preparation of the compounds of the formula (I) containing basic nitrogen,
wherein
m is 1, 2 or 3;
R.sup.1 and/or R.sup.2 stand for hydrogen, a straight or branched chain C.sub.1-4 alkyl, C.sub.1-4 alkoxy, C.sub.5-7 -cycloalkyl group or halogen;
B means a 5- or 6-membered saturated or unsaturated heterocyclic group, which is bound through its nitrogen atom and contains at least one nitrogen and optionally and additional oxygen, sulfur or nitrogen or an --NH or --NR group, wherein R means a C.sub.1-5 alkyl group
as well as their acid addition salts, which comprises reacting a haloorganosilane compound of the formula (II), ##STR3## wherein R.sup.1 R.sup.2 and m are as defined above and X means halogen, or a solution thereof in an organic solvent with a 5- or 6-membered saturated or unsaturated heterocyclic compound containing at least one basic nitrogen, optionally an additional oxygen, sulfur or nitrogen atom, --NH or --NR group, wherein R means a C.sub.1-5 alkyl group and, if desired, converting the compound of formula (I) obtained to its acid addition salt.
According to the preferred embodiment of the process of the invention a haloorganosilane compound of the formula (II) is dissolved in an inert organic solvent, preferably in xylene or toluene, an above-discussed 5- or 6-membered saturated or unsaturated heterocyclic compound containing at least one basic nitrogen is added to the above solution and the mixture is refluxed. After termination of the reaction water is added to the reaction mixture and the aqueous phase obtained is separated from the organic layer. The organic layer is washed with water, then, after drying and filtering, the organic solution is evaporated to a solvent-free state.
If desired, the compounds of formula (I) obtained in the base form may be converted to their salts.
Any pharmaceutically acceptable mineral acid is suitable for the salt formation; preferably hydrochloric acid is used for this purpose. In order to enhance the water-solubility of the compounds of formula (I), e.g. fumaric acid and the like may be used as pharmaceutically acceptable salt-forming organic acids.
The crude product may be purified by distillation under reduced pressure, recrystallization or recrystallization following the formation of the hydrochloride. When the compound of formula (I) is recrystallized in the form of the base, it is suitable to use an ether-type solvent, preferably methyl tertiary butyl ether; when the recrystallization is carried out in the salt form, then it is useful to employ a mixture of an aprotic dipolar and aprotic solvent, preferably a mixture containing methyl ethyl ketone and methanol or methyl propyl ketone and isopropanol.
The starting substances used in the process according to the invention are in general known compounds. The compounds of formula (II) may be prepared by using known methods, e.g. by reacting a Grignard compound with a chlorosilane derivative. Suitably, this reaction is carried out according to the nature of the reaction under alcohol-free, anhydrous conditions with exclusion of the air in ether-type solvents and preferably in a mixture of benzene with tetrahydrofuran.
The compounds according to the invention can be converted to pharmaceutical compositions in a known manner. The pharmaceutical compositions may be administered in an oral, rectal and/or parenteral route. For the oral administration the composition may be formulated e.g. as a tablet, dragee or capsule. Lactose or starch may be used as filling materials for the preparation of oral compositions. Gelatine, carboxymethylcellulose sodium, methylcellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone or starch gum may be used e.g. as binding or granulating materials. Potato starch or microcrystalline cellulose may be added as disintegrating agents although ultraamylopectin or formaldehyde-casein and the like may also be used. Talc, colloidal silicic acid, stearin, calcium or magnesium stearate and the like are suitable antiadhesive and sliding agents. A suspension, syrup or elixir may be prepared as liquid oral compositions, which may contain water, glycols, oils, alcohols as well as coloring and flavouring agents.
Tablets may be prepared e.g. by compression following wet granulation. The mixture of the active ingredient with the carriers and optionally with a part of the disintegrating additive is granulated with an aqueous, alcoholic or aqueous-alcoholic solution of the binding agents in a suitable equipment, then the granulate is dried. Subsequently, after mixing the other disintegrating, sliding and anti-adhesive additives to the dried granulate, the mixture is compressed to tablets. If desired, the tablets may be provided with a groove in order to facilitate the administration. Tablets may also directly be prepared from a mixture containing the active ingredient and suitable additives. The compositions may optionally be transformed to dragee by employing the commonly used pharmaceutical additives, e.g. protective, flavouring or colouring agents such as sugar, cellulose derivatives (methyl- or ethylcellulose, carboxymethylcellulose sodium and the like), polyvinylpyrrolidone, calcium phosphate, calcium carbonate, food dyes, aromatizing agents or iron oxide pigments. Encapsulated compositions are prepared by filling a mixture of the active ingredient together with the additives into capsules.
For rectal administration the composition is formulated as a suppository containing a carrier mass (the so-called adeps pro suppositorio) in addition to the active ingredient. Vegetable fats such as hardened vegetable oils or triglycerides of C.sub.12-18 fatty acids (preferably carriers commercialized under the trade name Witepsol) are useful carriers. The active ingredient is homogenized in the molten carrier mass and suppositories are prepared by pouring.
For parenteral administration the composition is formulated as an injectable preparation. For preparing an injectable solution, the active ingredients are dissolved in distilled water and/or various organic solvents, e.g. glycol ethers, optionally in the presence of solubilizing agents such as polyoxyethylene sorbitan monolaurate, -monooleate or -monostearate (Tween 20, Tween 60 or Tween 80, respectively). Besides, the injectable solution may contain various auxiliaries (additives), e.g. preservatives such as ethylenediamine tetraacetate and pH-adjusting and buffer substances as well as optionally a local anaesthetizing drug, e.g. lidocaine. Before filling into an ampoule, the injectable solution containing the pharmaceutical composition according to the invention is filtered and after filling it is sterilized.
The invention also relates to a method of treating Parkinson's disease, spastic rigid muscular hypertonicity, stroke, nervous system laesions, sclerosis multiplex, myclopathies, rachicele or articular pains. This method comprises administering a therapeutically effective amount of an active compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof to the patient.
