Phenothiazine derivatives, their preparation and pharmaceutical compositions containing them

THIS INVENTION relates to phenothiazine derivatives, their preparation and pharmaceutical compositions containing them.
In the analgesic field, recent progress in the study of receptors has enabled several types of opiate receptors to be demonstrated, in particular the Mu and Kappa type receptors.
Traditional compounds of the morphine type act at the level of the Mu receptors, but have the drawback of causing troublesome side effects (phenomena of physical and mental dependence, respiratory depression, etc.), in consequence of which it is hazardous to use such products in some subjects.
Products which are more specific for the Kappa receptors exhibit a potent analgesic activity without causing the side effects of traditional morphine type compounds.
It has now been found that phenothiazine derivatives of the formula (I) as defined below exhibit a potent analgesic activity associated with a preferential affinity for the Kappa receptors.
Phenothiazine amides of formula: ##STR2## in which R is, in particular, a hydrogen atom, have been described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,112,310 and are stated to have activity on the central nervous system.
Phenothiazine thioamides of formula: ##STR3## in which A is a carbon chain and Z is, in particular, a dialkylamino radical or a nitrogen-containing heterocycle, have been described in Belgian Pat. No. 612,885 as neuroleptic, anti-emetic, adrenolytic and anti-tuberculosis agents.
The phenothiazines of the invention have the formula: ##STR4## in which Y denotes hydrogen or halogen and R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, which may be identical or different, each denote alkyl, cycloalkylalkyl, hydroxyalkyl or acetyloxyalkyl or form, together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached, a saturated or partially unsaturated 4- to 7-membered heterocyclic ring which is unsubstituted or substituted by 1 or 2 alkyl, hydroxyalkyl or acetyloxyalkyl radicals; and - either X denotes oxygen, sulphur or :N-R.sub.4, in which R.sub.4 is hydrogen or cyano, and R denotes 4- to 6-membered cycloalkyl or phenyl, or --CH.sub.2 R.sub.3, in which R.sub.3 is hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, alkenyl or alkynyl of 2 to 4 carbon atoms, 3- to 6-membered cycloalkyl, or phenyl which is unsubstituted or substituted(by 1 or 2 halogen atoms or by hydroxy, alkyl, alkyloxy, trifluoromethyl or nitro)or furyl, thienyl or pyridyl, provided that R.sub.3 is hydrogen or alkyl, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are both alkyl or together form an unsubstituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic ring and Y is hydrogen, X is not oxygen;
or X is :N-R.sub.4 and R forms, with R.sub.4 and the atoms to which they are attached, imidazolinyl or imidazolyl unsubstituted or substituted by 1 or 2 alkyl radicals, or hexahydrobenzimidazolyl; the aforesaid alkyl radicals being (except where otherwise stated) linear or branched and having 1 to 4 carbon atoms each.
When the symbol Y denotes halogen or when R bears a halogen substituent, the latter is advantageously chosen from chlorine, fluorine or bromine.
The products of formula (I) exist in isomeric forms; These isomeric forms and mixtures thereof fall within the scope of the present invention.
According to a feature of the invention, the phenothiazine derivatives of the formula (I), in which X is not :NR.sub.4 in which R.sub.4 forms imidazolyl with R and the neighbouring atoms, are obtained from a phenothiazine of formula: ##STR5## in which Y, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are as defined above and X denotes sulphur or :N-R.sub.4 in which R.sub.4 is hydrogen or cyano by the action of an amine of formula:
R - NH.sub.2 (III)
in which R is as defined above, or by the action of a diamine chosen from 1,2-diaminoethane optionally substituted by 1 or 2 alkyl radicals, or 1,2-diaminocyclohexane if X denotes an N.sub.H radical and if it is desired to obtain phenothiazine in which R and R.sub.4 are linked together with the neighbouring atoms to form optionally substituted imidazolinyl or hexahydrobenzimidazolyl, and then, when it is desired to obtain the amide, oxidizing a substituted thioamide of formula (I) in which X is sulphur to the corresponding amide.
The reaction is advantageously performed in an organic solvent such as an alcohol (e.g. ethanol, methanol or isopropanol) or without a solvent, at a temperature of between 100.degree. and 250.degree.C. When the reaction is performed starting with the thioamide of general formula (II), it is sometimes advantageous to work in the presence of hydrogen sulphide. When the reaction is performed starting with the amidine of general formula (II), it is also possible to employ the salt of this product.
In practice, to prepare the amide of general formula (I), it is not essential to isolate the intermediate substituted thioamide.
When it is desired to isolate the amide of general formula (I) directly, without prior isolation of the thioamide of general formula (I), chromatography or crystallization is employed directly.
When it is desired to isolate the substituted thioamide of general formula (I), it is preferable to work in the presence of hydrogen sulphide, and then, when it is desired to obtain the amide, the secondary thioamide obtained or its salt is oxidized by any known method for obtaining an amide from the corresponding thioamide without affecting the remainder of the molecule.
The oxidation is advantageously accomplished by means of a mercuric salt (e.g. mercuric acetate) or a cuprous salt, in an organic solvent such as a ketone (e.g. acetone), an alcohol, an ester or a carboxylic acid such as, e.g., acetic acid, at a temperature of between 0.degree. and 100.degree. C.
It is also possible to perform the oxidation using methods similar to those described by:
H. J. Kim et al., Synthesis, 11, 970 (1986),
M. T. M. El-Wassimy, Tetrahedron 39 (10), 1729 (1983),
K. A. Jorgensen et al., Tetrahedron 38, (9), 1163 (1982),
A. G. Samuelson et al., Tetrahedron Letters, 27 (33), 3911 (1986).
When it is desired to obtain a product of formula (I) in which X is a radical N-R.sub.4 and R and R.sub.4 are linked together in such a way as to form, with the neighbouring atoms, an optionally substituted imidazolinyl radical or a hexahydrobenzimidazolyl radical, the diamine may be used either on the thioamide of formula (II) or on an amidine in which R.sub.4 is hydrogen.
When it is desired to obtain an amide of formula (I) in which the chain at the 10-position bears an acetyloxy substituent, this substituent can be placed in position from the beginning of the synthesis (i.e. in the preparation of the starting material of formula (V) below) o it can be advantageous to employ a phenothiazine derivative of formula (II) bearing a hydroxy substituent on the chain at the 10-position, isolating the secondary thioamide of formula (I) and then oxidizing this product with mercuric acetate, and separating the expected product by chromatography or crystallization.
According to a further feature of the invention, the amides of formula (I) in which X is oxygen may also be obtained from an acid of formula: ##STR6## in which Y, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are as defined above, by any known method for obtaining a substituted amide from an acid without affecting the remainder of the molecule.
The procedure used employs, in particular, the action of an amine of formula (III) on a reactive derivative of the acid (optionally prepared in situ), e.g. the acid chloride, an activated ester or a mixed anhydride, in an organic solvent such as an ether or a chlorinated solvent (e.g. methylene chloride, chloroform, dichloroethane) or in an amide (dimethylformamide), in the presence of an acid acceptor such as a nitrogenous organic base such as, e.g., a trialkylamine (triethylamine in particular), at a temperature of between -40.degree. and +40.degree. C.
It is also possible to react the amine of formula (III) directly with the acid, working in the presence of a condensing agent such as a carbodiimide (dicylohexylcarbodiimide), N,N'-carbonyldiimidazole or N-hydroxybenzotriazole in an organic solvent as mentioned above, at a temperature as defined above.
It is understood that, in the case where the radical R of the amine of formula (III) contains groups capable of interfering with the reaction, this radical must be protected beforehand. The protective radical introduced is removed after the reaction. In particular, when the radical R contains a hydroxy radical, it is preferable to protect this radical. The protection is accomplished, e.g., in the form of a methoxy or benzyloxy radical, which can be removed, respectively, by treatment with hydrobromic acid or boron tribromide, or by hydrogenolysis in the case of the benzyloxy radical.
According to another feature of the invention, the products of formula (I) in which X is oxygen may also be obtained from a nitrile of formula: ##STR7## in which Y, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are as defined above, by any known method for obtaining a substituted amide from a nitrile without affecting the remainder of the molecule.
In particular, an intermediate imidate may be prepared in situ, which is then reacted with a halogenated derivative of general formula:
R - Hal (VI)
in which R is as defined above and Hal denotes an iodine or bromine atom.
Preferably, the reaction is performed in an alcohol/alcoholate or alcohol/potassium hydroxide mixture, e.g. tert-butanol/potassium tert-butylate, tert-butanol/potassium hydroxide or isobutanol/potassium isobutylate at a temperature of between 50.degree. and 150.degree. C.
It is also possible to work in the presence of a large excess of an amine of formula (III), with or without a solvent, at a temperature of between 150.degree. and 250.degree. C.
Where appropriate, the solvents are advantageously chosen from alcohols (e.g. ethanol, methanol), ethers having a high boiling point, polyethers and aromatic hydrocarbons e.g. toluene, xylene or chlorobenzene).
It is also possible to work according to the method described by S. LINKE, Synthesis, 4, 303 (1978) or according to the method described by G. W. CANNON et al., J. Org. Chem., 18, 516 (1953).
According to another feature of the invention, the carboxamidines of formula (I) in which X is :N-R.sub.4, in which R.sub.4 is hydrogen and R is as defined above, or R.sub.4 forms, with R and atoms to which they are attached, optionally substituted imidazolinyl or hexahydrobenzimidazolyl are also prepared from an imidate of formula: ##STR8## in which Y, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are as defined above and R' is alkyl of 1 to 10 carbon atoms, or from its salt, by the action of an amine of formula (III) or a diamine defined as above, such that R.sub.4 and R are defined as above.
The reaction is generally performed in an organic solvent such as an alcohol (e.g. methanol, ethanol) at a temperature of between -10.degree. and 60.degree. C.
According to another feature of the invention, the phenothiazine derivatives of formula (I) in which X is :N-R.sub.4 and R forms with R.sub.4 an imidazolyl radical optionally substituted by alkyl may also be obtained from a phenothiazine derivative of formula (II) in which X is an NH radical and Y, R.sub.1, R.sub.2 are defined as above, or from its salt, by the action of an .alpha.-halo ketone or .alpha.-halo aldehyde, of formula: ##STR9## in which Hal is halogen and R" and R"', which may be identical or different, each denote hydrogen or alkyl.
The reaction is advantageously performed in an organic solvent such as an alcohol (e.g. methanol, ethanol), an ether (e.g. tetrahydrofuran, diglyme or dioxane) or a halogenated solvent (e.g. methylene chloride, chloroform, 1,2-dichloroethane) at a temperature between 10.degree. C. and the refluxing temperature of the reaction mixture.
Preferably, the halogen atom is chlorine or bromine.
The phenothiazine derivative of formula (II) in which X is sulphur may be obtained from a nitrile of formula (V) by any known method for obtaining a thioamide from a nitrile without affecting the remainder of the molecule.
The procedure is generally performed in an anhydrous basic medium, in the presence of hydrogen sulphide, at a temperature of between 0.degree. and 100.degree. C. The reaction is advantageously performed in the presence of a nitrogenous organic base such as triethylamine, in an organic solvent such as pyridine.
The phenothiazine derivatives of formula (II) in which X is NR.sub.4 may be obtained from an imidate of formula (VII), by the action of ammonia when it is desired to obtain an amidine in which R.sub.4 is hydrogen, or by the action of cyanamide when it is desired to obtain an amidine in which R.sub.4 is cyano, respectively.
The reaction is generally performed in an organic solvent such as an alcohol (e.g. methanol, ethanol) or in an ether (e.g. dioxane, glyme, diglyme) at a temperature of between 0.degree. and 50.degree. C. when ammonia is reacted or at a temperature between 70.degree. and the refluxing temperature of the reaction mixture when cyanamide is reacted.
The acid of formula (IV) may be obtained from a nitrile of formula (V) by any known method for obtaining an acid from a nitrile without affecting the remainder of the molecule. The procedure used employs in particular hydrolysis in an acid or basic medium in an organic solvent at a temperature between 50.degree. C. and the refluxing temperature of the reaction mixture. The reaction is advantageously performed in glycol in the presence of potassium hydroxide.
The nitrile of general formula (V) may be obtained according to the following scheme: ##STR10## in which W is a p-toluenesulphonyloxy, methylsulphonyloxy or diaryloxyphosphoryloxy residue and R.sub.0 is an alkyl radical containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms (e.g. ethyl), and the working conditions of which are defined in greater detail below in Examples 2, 8 to 12, 14, 16, 17, 18, 21, 34, 35, 37, 39, 47, 52, 58 and 88 to 90.
The nitrile of formula (XII) for which Y is a hydrogen atom may be obtained as described in U.S. Pat. No. 2, 877,224.
The nitrile of formula (XII) for which Y is a chlorine or bromine atom may be obtained by the action of a halogenating agent on the phenothiazine derivative of formula (XII) for which Y is a hydrogen atom.
The halogenation is preferably performed by the action of the halogen (chlorine, bromine) or sulphuryl chloride, in the presence of aluminium trichloride, in an organic solvent such as a halogenated hydrocarbon (e.g. dichloroethane) or an ether, at a temperature of between -50.degree. C. and the refluxing temperature of the reaction mixture.
When it is desired to obtain a product of formula (XII) for which Y is a fluorine atom, the procedure is performed according to the method described in GB Patent Application No. 2,132,194.
The imino ether of formula (VII) may be obtained by the treatment of a nitrile of formula (V) in an acid medium with an alcohol of formula: ps
R'OH (XIII)
in which R' is defined as above.
In general, the procedure is performed in the presence of hydrochloric acid, at a temperature of between -10.degree. and 60.degree. C.
The isomers of the products of general formula (I) may be obtained according to known methods.
The procedure used employs, in particular, the preparation of the isomer of the phenothiazine derivative of general formula (X), which is then converted to a phenothiazine derivative of formula (I) by the methods described above.
The optically active derivative of the product of formula (X) is obtained, in particular, by the preparation of a diacid ester, formation of an optically active salt, separation of the isomers by crystallization and saponification of the isomer obtained.
More especially, the ester is obtained by means of a diacid anhydride such as, e.g., phthalic anhydride or maleic or succinic anhydride. The salt is formed by the addition of an optically active amine, e.g., (+)-1-phenylethylamine or (-)-1-phenylethylamine.
In the Examples which follow, the phenothiazine derivatives prepared from the alcohol of formula (X) for which the optical rotation in chloroform solution is positive are referred to as the D series; the phenothiazine derivatives prepared from the alcohol of formula (X) for which the optical rotation in chloroform solution is negative are referred to as the L series.
The products of formula (I) may be purified by chromatography or crystallization.
The phenothiazine derivatives of formula (I) may be converted into addition salts with acids, by the action of an acid in an organic solvent such as an alcohol, a ketone, an ester, an ether or a chlorinated solvent. The salt precipitates, where appropriate after concentration of its solution; it is separated by filtration or decantation.
As pharmaceutically acceptable salts, there may be mentioned the addition salts with inorganic acids such as hydrochlorides, hydrobromides, sulphates, nitrates or phosphates, or organic acids such as acetates, propionates, succinates, maleates, fumarates, methanesulphonates, p-toluenesulphonates, isethionates or substitution derivatives of these compounds.
The phenothiazine derivatives of general formula (I) exhibit an especially advantageous analgesic and diuretic activity on account of their preferential affinity for the Kappa receptors and their low toxicity.
They have been shown, in effect, to be active at concentrations of between 1 and 500 nM in the method of tritiated ethylketocyclazocine binding in guinea pig cerebellum homogenates, based on the technique of L. E. Robson et al., Opioid binding sites of the Kappa type in guinea pig cerebellum, Neuroscience, 12, 621 (1984).
They have also been shown to be active in the technique of inhibition of the contractions induced by electrical stimulation on isolated guinea pig ileum (based on W. D. M. Paton, Brit. J. Pharmacol., 11, 119 (1957)) at concentrations of between 1 and 300 nM.
Products having an affinity for the Kappa receptors manifest a diuretic effect [J. D. Leander, The Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics, 224 (1), 89 (1983) and G. R. Slizgi et al., The Journal of Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics 230 (3), 641 (1984)]. It has also been demonstrated, by studying several products, that the products of general formula (I) manifest a significant diuretic effect in rats, at doses of between 1 and 20 mg/kg administered subcutaneously, in the technique described by J. D. Leander (reference above).
Moreover, the acute toxicity (LD.sub.50) of the products of formula (I) in mice is low compared with the doses at which they are used. Their LD.sub.50 is generally between 30 to 100 mg/kg p.o. or even much greater than 100 mg/kg p.o.
Of special importance are the products of general formula (I) in which:
Y is hydrogen or halogen,
R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, which may be identical or different, each denote alkyl of 1 and 3 carbon atoms in a straight or branched chain, or alkyl of 1 or 2 carbon atoms substituted by cycloalkyl, hydroxy or acetyloxy, or R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 form, together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached, a saturated or partially unsaturated 4- to 7-membered heterocycle optionally substituted by 1 or 2 methyl radicals or alkyl radicals of 1 or 2 carbon atoms substituted by hydroxy or acetyloxy, and either X denotes oxygen, sulphur, or :NR.sub.4, and R denotes a 4- to 6-membered cycloalkyl or phenyl, or a radical -CH.sub.2 R.sub.3, in which R.sub.3 is hydrogen, a linear or branched alkyl radical of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, alkenyl or alkynyl of 2 to 4 carbon atoms, 3- to 6-membered cycloalkyl, phenyl which is unsubstituted or substituted (with 1 or 2 halogen atoms or with a hydroxy, methyl, methoxy, trifluoromethyl or nitro radical) or furyl, thienyl or pyridyl, and R.sub.4 is hydrogen or cyano, provided that X cannot denote oxygen when, simultaneously, R.sub.3 is hydrogen or alkyl, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are alkyl or together form an unsubstituted nitrogenous heterocycle, and Y is hydrogen, or X is :N-R.sub.4 and R forms, with R.sub.4 and the atoms to which they are attached, imidazolyl optionally substituted with 1 or 2 methyl or ethyl radicals or hexahydrobenzimidazolyl.
Among these products, more especial activity is to be found in the phenothiazine derivatives of formula (I) for which:
Y is hydrogen or halogen,
R.sub.1 and R.sub.2, which may be identical or different, denote alkyl radicals 1 or 2 carbon atoms, but are not both methyl, or acetyloxyalkyl in which the alkyl has 1 or 2 carbon atoms, or form, together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached, a saturated or partially unsaturated 4- to 7-membered heterocycle which is unsubstituted or substituted with 1 or 2 methyl, hydroxymethyl or acetyloxymethyl radicals, and - either the symbol X denotes oxygen, sulphur or :N-R.sub.4 and R denotes 4- to 6-membered cycloakyl --CH.sub.2 R.sub.3 in which R.sub.3 is linear or branched alkyl of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, alkenyl or alkynyl of 2 to 4 carbon atoms, 3- to 6-membered cycloalkyl, or phenyl which is optionally substituted (with 1 or 2 halogen atoms or with a hydroxy, methyl, methoxy, trifluoromethyl or nitro radical), or furyl, thienyl or pyridyl, and R.sub.4 is hydrogen or cyano, provided that X cannot denote oxygen when, simultaneously, R.sub.3 is hydrogen or alkyl, R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are alkyl or together form an unsubstituted nitrogenous heterocycle and Y is hydrogen, or X is a :N-R.sub.4 and R forms, with R.sub.4 and the atoms to which they are attached, imidazolyl optionally substituted with 1 alkyl radical containing 1 or 2 carbon atoms or hexahydrobenzimidazolyl, in the form of a mixture of isomers or in the form of their isomers of the L series. The following products are of particular interest:
cyclobutylmethyl-10-[1-(1-pyrrolidinyl)-2-propyl]-2-phenothiazinecarboxamide;
N-(3-chlorobenzyl)-10-[1-(1-pyrrolidinyl)-2-propyl]-2-phenothiazinecarboxamide;
N-(2-chlorobenzyl)-10-[1-(1-pyrrolidinyl)-2-propyl]-2-phenothiazinecarboxamide;

The present invention also relates to the pharmaceutical compositions consisting of a product of general formula (I), in free form or in the form of an addition salt with a pharmaceutically acceptable acid, in the pure state or in the form of a combination with any other pharmaceutically compatible product which can be inert or physiologically active. The medicinal products according to the invention may be used parenterally, orally, rectally or topically.
The sterile compositions for parenteral administration, which can be, in particular, used in the form of perfusions, are preferably solutions, aqueous or non-aqueous, suspensions or emulsions. As a solvent or vehicle, water, propylene glycol, a polyethylene glycol, vegetable oils, especially olive oil, injectable organic esters, e.g. ethyl oleate, or other suitable organic solvents may be used. These compositions can also contain adjuvants, especially wetting agents, tonicity regulators, emulsifiers, dispersants and stabilizers. The sterilization may be carried out in several ways, e.g. by aseptic filtration, by incorporating sterilizing agents in the composition, by irradiation or by heating. They can also be prepared in the form of sterile solid compositions which can be dissolved at the time of use in a sterile injectable medium.
The compositions for rectal administration are suppositories or rectal capsules which contain, apart from the active product, excipients such as cocoa butter, semi-synthetic glycerides or polyethylene glycols.
As solid compositions for oral administration, tablets, pills, powders or granules may be used. In these compositions, the active product according to the invention (optionally in combination with another pharmaceutically compatible product) is mixed with one or more inert diluents or adjuvants such as sucrose, lactose or starch. These compositions can also comprise substances other than diluents, e.g. a lubricant such as magnesium stearate.
As liquid compositions for oral administration, emulsions of a pharmaceutically acceptable nature, solutions, suspensions, syrups and elixirs containing inert diluents such as water or liquid paraffin may be used. These compositions can also comprise substances other than diluents, e.g. wetting, sweetening or flavouring products.
The compositions for topical administration can be e.g. creams, ointments or lotions.
In human therapy, the products according to the invention are especially useful in the treatment of pain of traumatic origin, postoperative, homotopic and menstrual pain, headaches, etc., as well as in diuretic treatments. The dosages depend on the effect sought and the treatment period. For an adult, they are generally between 0.25 and 1,500 mg per day, taken in several doses at intervals.
Generally speaking, the doctor will determine the dosage which he considers most suitable in accordance with the age, weight and all other factors specific to the subject to be treated.
The examples which follow, given without implied limitation, illustrate compositions according to the invention.
