Oxy-phenyl-(phenyl)glycinolamides with heterocyclic substituents

The present invention relates to oxy-phenyl-(phenyl)glycinolamides with heterocyclic substituents, to a process for their preparation and to their use as antiatherosclerotic agents.
It is known that increased blood levels of triglycerides (hypertriglyceridaemia) and cholesterol (hypercholesterolanaemia) are associated with the origin of atherosclerotic changes to the vascular wall and coronary heart diseases.
Furthermore, a significantly increased risk of the development of coronary heart diseases exists if these two risk factors occur in combination, which in turn is accompanied by over-production of apolipoprotein B-100. There is therefore still a goat need to provide active medicaments for combating atherosclerosis and coronary heart diseases.

The reaction is in general carried out in a temperature range from 0.degree. C. to 150.degree. C., preferably from +20.degree. C. to +110.degree. C.
The reaction can be carried out under normal, increased or reduced pressure (for example 0.5 to 5 bar). It is in general carried out under normal pressure.
Compounds which are suitable for activation of the carboxylic acid function are in general bases and/or dehydrating reagents, such as, for example, diisopropylcarbodiimide, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide or N-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-N'-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride, or carbonyl compounds, such as carbonyldiimidazole, or 1,2-oxazolium compounds, such as 2-ethyl-5-phenyl-1,2-oxazolium 3-sulphonate, or propanephosphoric acid anhydride or isobutyl chloroformate or benzotriazolyloxy-tris-(dimethylamino)phosphonium hexafluorophosphate or phosphonic acid diphenyl ester-amide or methanesulphonyl chloride, if appropriate in the presence of bases, such as triethylamine or N-ethylmorphotine or N-methylpiperidine or dicyclohexylcarbodiimide and N-hydroxysuccinimide.

The compounds of the general formula (II) are known (cf. EP 582 908, 344 519, 339 416, 399 291, 414 078, 529 450; and 414 076; U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,929,629, 4,970,215, 5,091,392, 5,126,354, DE 410,555.1, 4,112,533.9, 41,128,681.2, 4,219,765.1, 4,226,519.3, 4,226,649.1), or they can be prepared by a process in which compounds of the general formula (IV) ##STR15## in which D, E and L have the meaning given,

in which
A has the abovementioned meaning and
Z represents halogen, preferably bromine, in inert solvents, if appropriate in the presence of a base, and in the case of the acids, the esters are hydrolysed.
The compound of the general formula (III) is known.
The compounds of the general formula (IV) and (V) are known per se or can be prepared by customary methods.
The compounds of the general formula (I) according to the invention have an unforeseeable pharmacological action spectrum.
The known compounds 2(R')- and 2(S')-2-�4-(quinolin-2-yl-methoxy)phenyl!-2-cyclopentylacetic acid (S)-phenylglycinolamide also show this new pharmacological action spectrum, in addition to their lipoxygenase-inhibiting action.
They can be used as active compounds in medicaments for reducing changes to vascular walls and for treatment of coronary heart diseases, cardiac insufficiency, disturbances in cerebral performance, ischaemic cerebral diseases, apoplexy, circulatory disturbances, disturbances in microcirculation and thromboses.
Furthermore, proliferation of smooth muscle cells plays a decisive role in the occlusion of vessels. The compounds according to the invention are capable of inhibiting this proliferation and therefore of preventing atherosclerotic processes.
The compounds according to the invention are distinguished by a reduction in ApoB-100-associated lipoproteins (VLDL and its breakdown products, such as LDL), ApoB-100,triglycerides and cholesterol. They therefore have valuable pharmacological properties which are superior compared with the prior art.
Surprisingly, the action of the compounds according to the invention initially comprises a reduction or complete inhibition of the formation and/or release of ApoB-100-associated lipoproteins from liver cells, which results in a reduction in the plasma VLDL level. This reduction in VLDL must be accompanied by a reduction in the plasma levels of ApoB-100, LDL, triglycerides and cholesterol; several of the abovementioned risk factors which participate in changes to the vascular wall are thus reduced at the same time.
The compounds according to the invention can therefore be employed for prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis, obesity, pancreatitis and constipation.
1. Inhibition of the release ofApoB-100-associated lipoproteins
The test for detection of the inhibition of the release of ApoB-100-associated lipoproteins from liver cells was carried out in vitro with cultured liver cells, preferably with cells of the human line HepG2. These cells are grown under standard conditions in a medium for culture of eukaryotic cells, preferably in RPMI 1640 with 10% fetal calf serum. HepG2 cells synthesize and secrete into the culture supernatant ApoB-100-associated lipoprotein particles, which in principle are built up similarly to the VLDL and LDL particles which are to be found in plasma.
These particles can be detected with an immunoassay for human LDL. This immunoassay is carried out with antibodies which have been induced against human LDL under standard conditions in the rabbit. The anti-LDL antibodies (rabi-anti-LDL-ab) were purified by affinity chromatogaphy on an immunosorbent with human LDL. These purified-rab-anti-LDL-ab are adsorbed onto the surface of plastic. This adsorption is expediently effected on the plastic surface of microlitre plates with 96 wells, preferably on MaxiSorp plates (Nunc). If ApoB-100-associated paaicles are present in the soupernatant of Hep-G2 cells, these can bond to the insolubilized rab-anti-LDL-ab, and an immune complex bonded to the plastic surface is formed. Non-bonded proteins are removed by washing. The immune complex on the plastic surface is detected with monoclonal antibodies, which had been induced against human LDL under sandard conditions and purified. These antibodies were conjugated with the enzyme peroxidase (Boehringer, Mannheim). Peroxide conveys the colourless substrate TMB (Kirkegaard and Perry) into a coloured product in the presence of H.sub.2 O.sub.2. After acidification of the reaction mixture with H.sub.2 SO.sub.4, the specific lift absorption at 450 nm, which is a measure of the amount of ApoB-100-associated particles which had been secreted into the culture supernatant by HepG2 cells, is determined.
Surprisingly, the compounds according to the invention inhibit the release of the ApoB-100-associated particles. The IC.sub.50 value indicates the concentration of substance at which the absorption of light is inhibited by 50% in comparison with the control (solvent control without substance).
2) Investigation of the inhibition of the proliferation of smooth muscle cells
The antiproliferative action of the compounds is determined using smooth muscle cells obtained from the aortas of rats by the media explant technique �R. Ross, J. Cell. Biol. 50, 172, 1971!. The cells are sown in suitable culture dishes, as a rule 96-well plates, and cultured for 2-3 days in medium 199 with 7.5% of FCS and 7.5% of NCS, 2 mM L-glutamine and 15 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, in 5% CO.sub.2 at 37.degree. C. Thereafter, the cells are synchronized by withdrawal of serum for 2-3 days and then stimulated to growth with serum or other factors. Test compounds are added at the same time. After 16-20 hours, 1 .mu.Ci of .sup.3 H-thymidine is added, and after a further 4 hours the incorporation of this substance into the DNA of the cells which can be precipitated with TCA is determined. For determination of the IC.sub.50 values, the concentration of active compound is calculated which, on sequential dilution of the active compound, causes half the maximum inhibition of the thymidine incorporation caused by 10% of FCS.
3) Determination of VLDL secretion in vivo (hamster)
The effect of the test substances on VLDL secretion in vivo is investigated on the hamster. For this purpose, golden hamsters are premedicated with atropine (83 mg/kg s.c.) and anaesthetized with Ketavet (83 mg/kg s.c.) and Nembutal (50 mg/kg i.p.). When the animals have become free from reflexes, the v. jugularis is exposed and a cannula inserted. 0.25 ml/kg of a 20% strength soliition of Triton WR-1339 in physiological saline solution is then administered. This detergent inhibits the lipoprotein lipase and thus leads to an increase in the trigyceride level because of an absence of catabolism of secreated VLDL particles. This increase in triglycerides can be used as a measure of the rate of VLDL secretion. Blood is taken from the animals by puncture of the retroorbital venus plexus before and one and two hours after administration the detergent. The blood is incubated at room temperature for two hours and then at 4.degree. C. overnight in order to conclude coagulation completely. Thereafter, it is centrifuged at 10,000 g for 5 minutes. The triglyceride concentration in the serum thus obtained is determined with the aid of a modified comercially obtainable enzyme test (Merckotest.RTM. Triglycerides No. 14354). 100 .mu.l of test reagent are added to 100 .mu.l of serum in 96-well plates and the mixtures are incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes. The optical density is then determined at a wavelength of 492 nm in an automatic plate reader (SLT-Spectra). Serum samples having too high a triglyceride concentration are diluted with physiological saline solution. The triglyceride concentration contained in the samples is determined with the aid of a standard curve measured in parallel. In this model, test substances are administered either intravenously immediately before administration of the detergent or orally or subcutaneously before initiation of the anaesthesia.
4) Inhibitation of intestinal tryglyceride absorbtion in vivo (rat)
The substances which are to be investigated for their triglyceride absorption-inhibiting action in vivo are adminstered orally to male Wistar rats having a body weight of between 170 and 230 g. For this purpose, the animals are divided into groups of 6 animals 18 hours before administration of the substance and their food is then withdrawn. Drinking water is available to the animals ad libitum. The animals of the control group are given an aqueous tragacanth suspension or a tragacanth suspension which contains olive oil. The tragacanth-olive oil suspension is prepared with an Ultra-Turrax. The substances to be investigated are suspended in a corresponding tragacanth-olive oil suspension, likewise with an Ultra-Turrax, directly before administration of the substance.
Before application of the stomach tube, blood is taken from each rat by puncture of the retroorbital venus plexus for determination of the basal serum triglyceride content. The tragacanth suspension, the tragacanth-olive oil suspensions without a substance (control animals) or the substances suspended in a corresponding tragacanth-olive oil suspension, are then administered to the fasting animals with a stomach tube. Further withdrawals of blood for determination of the postprandial increase in serum triglycerides are made as a rule 1, 2 or 3 hours after application via the stomach tube.
The blood samples are centrifuged, and, after the serum has been isolated, the triglycerides are determined photometrically with an EPOS analyser 5060 (Eppenford Gergatebau, Netheler & Hinz GmbH, Hamburg). The triglycerides are determined completely enzymatically with a commercially available UV test.
The postprandial increase in serum triglycerides is determined by subtracting the triglyceride initial value of each animal from its corresponding postprandial triglyceride concentrations (1, 2 and 3 hours after administration).
The differences (in mmol/l) at each point in time (1, 2 and 3 hours) are averaged in the groups and the means of the increase in serum triglycerides (.DELTA.TG) of the animals treated with the substance are compared with those of the animals which received only the tragacanth-oil suspension.
The course of the serum triglyceride of the control animals which were given only tragacanth is also calculated. The effect of the substance at each point in time (1, 2 or 3 hours) is determined as follows and stated in .DELTA.% of the oil-loaded control. ##EQU1## Effect of 10 mg of test substance/kg of body weight p.o. on the increase in triglycerides (.DELTA.%) 2 hours after triglyceride loading in the serum of fasting rats. The increase in serum triglyceride of fat-loaded control animals based on the serum triglyceride level of tragacanth control animals corresponds to 100%. n=6 animals per group.
Statistical analysis is by the Student t-test after first checking the variances for homogeneity.
Substances which statistically significantly (p<0.05) reduce the postprandial increase in serum triglycerides at a point in time by at least 30% compared with the untreated control group are re prded as pharmacologically active.
5) Inhibition of VDVL secretion in vivo (rat)
The action of the test substances on VLDL secretion is also investigated in the rat. For this, 500 mk/kg of body weight (2.5 mg/kg of Triton WR-1339 dissolved in physiological saline solution are administered intravenously into the tail vein of rats. Triton WR-1339 inhibits the lipoprotein lipase and thus leads to an increase in the triglyceride and cholesterol level by inhibition of VLDL catabolism. These increases can be used as a measure of the rate of VLDL secretion.
Blood is taken from the animals by puncture of the retroorbital venous plexus both before and one and two hours after administration of the detergent. The blood is incubated at room temperature for 1 hour for coagulation and the serum is isolated by centrifugation at 10 000 g for 20 seconds. The triglycerides are then determined photometrically at a wavelength of 540 nm by means of a commercially available coupled enzyme test (Sigman Diagnostics.RTM., No. 339). The measurement is made at a wavelength of 546 nm with the aid of an enzyme test which is likewise coupled (Boehringer Mannheim.RTM., No. 1442350). Samples with triglyceride or cholesterol concentrations which exceed the measurement range of the methods are diluted with physiological saline solution. The particular serum concentrations are determined with the aid of standard series measured in parallel. Test substances are administered orally, intravenously or subcutaneously immediately after the Triton injection.
The invention also relates to a combination of oxyphenyl (phenyl) glycerol amides containing heterocyclic substituents of the general formula (I) with a glucosidase and/or amylase inhibitor for the treatment of formula hyperlipidemia, obesity (adipositas) and diabetes mellitus. Glucosidase and/or amylase inhibitors in the context of the invention are for example Acarbose, Adiposine, Voglibose (AO-128), Miglitol, Emiglitate, MDL-25637, Camiglibose (MDL-73945), Tendamistate, A1-3688, Treslatin, Pradimicin-Q and Salboslatin. A combination of Acarbose, Miglitol, Emiglitate or Voglibose with one of the abovementioned compounds of the general formula (I) is preferred.
The new active compounds can be converted in a known manner into the customary formulations, such as tablets, coated tablets, pills, granules, aerosols, syrups, emulsions, suspensions and solutions, using inert, non-toxic, pharmaceutically suitable excipients or solvents. The therapeutically active compound should in each case be present here in a concentration of about 0.5 to 90% by weight of the total mixture, i.e. in amounts which are sufficient to achieve the stated dosage range.
The formulations are prepared, for example, by extending the active compounds with solvents and/or excipients, if appropriate using emulsifying agents and/or dispersing agents, and in the case of the use of water as a diluent, for example, organic solvents can be used as auxiliary solvents if appropriate.
Administration is carried out in the customary manner, preferably orally or parenterally, in particular perlingually or intravenously.
In the case of parenteral use, solutions of the active compound can be employed, using suitable liquid carrier materials.
In general, it has proved advantageous in the case of intravenous administration to administer amounts of about 0.001 to 1 mg/kg, preferably about 0.01 to 0.5 mg/kg of body weight, to achieve effective results, and in the case of oral administration the dosage is about 0.01 to 20 mg/kg, preferably 0.1 to 10 mg/kg of body weight.
Nevertheless, it may be necessary to deviate from the amounts mentioned, and in particular to do so as a function of the body weight or type of administration route, of the behaviour of the individual towards the medicament, the nature of its formulation and the time or interval at which administration takes place. Thus, in some cases it may be sufficient to use less than the abovementioned minimum amount, while in other cases the upper limit mentioned must be exceeded. In the event of administration of relatively large amounts, it may be advisable to divide these into several individual doses over the day.
