BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The compounds of this invention are useful as hypolipidemic agents, particularly hypocholesteremic and are useful in the treatment of serum lipid disorders and other disorders of lipid metabolism including the various types of hyperlipoproteinemia and other hyperlipidemias. The route of administration is preferably oral, and the usual oral modes of administration and dosage forms are used. Parenteral and rectal routes of administration are also possible.
In standard cholesterol fed laboratory test animals (e.g. the rat, the gerbil and the quail) the compounds of the invention (A) are effective in controlling both low density lipoproteins (LDL) and very low density lipoproteins (VLDL). In the tabulated data which is presented subsequently the activity is evinced by either the heparin precipitate A.sub.680 and/or the cholesterol content. The critical effect is a lowering of either value (heparin precipitate or cholesterol) compared with the control data. Dosages (daily) in rats in the range of 25 and over miligrams per kilogram were found to be significantly active. The effects found in the experimental animals is expected to be translatable to humans and the compounds of (A) are conceived to provide prophylaxis against such diseases as atherosclerosis and arteriosclerosis in humans.
The compounds (A) of this invention can be prepared for administration to patients in unit dosage form such as tablets, capsules, pills, powders, granules, oral solutions or suspensions, oil-in-water and water-in-oil emulsions, suppositories and sterile solutions or suspensions for injections containing suitable quantities of (A).
For oral administration either solid or fluid unit dosage forms can be prepared. For preparing solid compositions such as tablets, (A) is mixed with conventional ingredients such as talc, magnesium stearate, dicalcium phosphate, magnesium aluminum silicate, calcium sulfate, starch, lactose, acacia, methylcellulose, and functionally similar materials as pharmaceutical diluents or carriers. Capsules are prepared by mixing the compound with an inert pharmaceutical diluent and filling the mixture into a hard gelatin capsule of appropriate size. Soft gelatin capsules are prepared by machine encapsulation of a slurry of the compound with an acceptable vegetable oil, light liquid petrolatum or other inert oil.
Fluid unit dosage forms for oral administration such as syrups, elixirs, and suspensions can be prepared. The water-soluble forms can be dissolved in water together with sweetening agents, flavoring agents, and a sugar, with preservatives, to form a syrup. The elixirs can be prepared using an aqueous alcoholic vehicle such as aqueous ethanol with suitable sweeteners such as sugar and saccharin, together with an aromatic flavoring agent. Suspensions can be prepared with a syrup vehicle with the aid of a suspending agent such as acacia, tragacanth, methylcellulose and the like. Adult human daily dosage is in the range of 0.1 g. to 10 g., preferably 0.5 g. to 3 g.

EXAMPLE 1 -- 4-Methoxybicyclo[2,2,2]octan-2-one
Methanol (68 ml.) was added to a flask equipped with a mechanical stirrer, a thermometer and a Dry Ice condenser. Butadiene (dried by passage through a Drierite trap) was then passed into the condenser until 72 ml had been collected. The mixture was then diluted with 280 ml. of methanol and cooled in an ice methanol bath. N,N-Dibromobenzene sulfonamide (64 g.) was added in 10 portions at a rate to keep the temperature at -12.degree. to -8.degree. (15 min. intervals). The reaction mixture was then stirred for 3.5 hrs at room temperature and poured into 800 ml. of water. The precipitated oil was extracted with 4 100 ml. portions of pentane and the extract taken to dryness. The residual oil was distilled at 63 mm to give 43.61 g. of 1-bromo-2-methoxy-3-butane, bp 69.degree.-77.degree..
A mixture of 87.7 g. of KOH and 1 1 of diethylene glycol in a flask equipped for distillation was stirred at 95.degree.-100.degree. until the solid had dissolved. To the hot well stirred mixture there was added over 30 min. 163.7 g. of the bromoether. When the addition was complete the pot temperature was slowly (1.degree. in 3 min.) raised to 130.degree.; the mixture was stirred at this temperature for 15 min. Water (55 ml.) was added and the temperature raised to 145.degree.. After 15 ml. of distillate had been collected at the upper temperature heating was stopped. The aqueous layer was separated from the distillate and the organic layer dried over sodium sulfate. Distillation of this last oil gave 62.68 g. of 2-methoxybutadiene, bp 69.degree.-74.degree. (atm).
A mixture of 14.89 g. of 2-methoxybutadiene, 16.95 g. of methyl vinyl ketone, 0.05 g. of hydroquinone and 37 ml. of benzene was heated for 15 hrs at 123.degree. in a glass bomb.

A mixture of 13.2 g. of p-toluenesulfonic acid and 0.9 g. of hydroquinone in 540 ml. of benzene was heated at reflux under a Dean Stark trap until no more water was evolved. A solution of 90.6 g. of 1-Acetyl-4-methoxy-3-cyclohexene in 750 ml. of benzene was then added to the refluxing solution over 6 hrs. Following an additional hr's heating the mixture was cooled and treated with 16 ml. of 4.64N methanolic sodium methoxide. The mixture was washed twice with water and the solvent evaporated in vacuum. The residual oil was distilled at 0.45 mm to afford 64.2 g. of bicyclic ketone 4-Methoxybicyclo[2,2,2]octan-2-one, bp 77.degree.-82.degree..

The mixture was then stirred under reflux for 1 hr. The temperature of the mixture was then raised to 200.degree. by distilling off solvent the distillate was collected. Following 3 hrs heating at 200.degree. the mixture was cooled and diluted with 1 l of water. The precipitated oil was extracted with ether. The distillate was similarly extracted. The combined extracts were washed in turn with water and brine. The solvent was removed at atmospheric pressure by distillation through a short fractionating column. The residual oil afforded 7.10 g. of product 1-methoxybicyclo[2,2,2]octane as a fragrant liquid, bp 178.degree.-184.degree. (atm).
To an ice cooled solution of 39.6 g. of 1-methoxybicyclo[2,2,2]octane in 112 ml. of acetic anhydride there was added dropwise 3.63 ml. of stannic chloride. Following 2 hrs stirring at room temperature the mixture was poured into water. The precipitated oil was taken up in ether and washed in turn with aqueous NaHCO.sub.3, water and brine. The oil which remained when the extract was taken to drynexx was distilled at 15 mm. There was obtained 21.4 g. of foreruns bp 42.degree.-51.degree. and 33.01 g. of acetate 1-acetoxybicyclo[2,2,2]octane bp 90.degree.-97.degree..

In the foregoing examples the reactions applied in the synthesis of the various derivatives of adamantane are applicable in the same manner, considering, for example, the aniline derivatives, to the preparation of other analogous bridged polycyclic, particularly bicyclooctane and 2-methyl-2-norborane derivatives.
Representative compounds of the invention were tested in hypercholesterolemic weanling rats. The compounds were administered orally for four days to weanling male rats fed a 1.5% cholesterol 0.5% cholic acid containing diet for seven days. The rats were weanling albino rats housed in groups of five animals which were allowed free access to food and water for three days before being distributed by weight into experimental groups. The diet of Phillips and Berg (J. Nutr. 53. 481-498, 1945) was used, with 10% coconut oil substituted for corn oil and 18% casein and 0.2% methionine as a protein source and with 11/2% cholesterol and 0.5% cholic acid added to the diet at the expense of dextrine. This diet was continued for seven days. The last four days test compounds suspended in 0.25% aqueous methylcellulose were administered by stomach tube. After an overnight fast they were anesthetized with Cyclopal, bled and the serum analyzed for cholesterol and heparin precipitating lipoproteins (HPL). The results are given as treated/control ratios of the antilogs of log means derived from six treated and twenty-four control animals. Statistical difference from control means (p < .05) were determined by Student's test using pooled error variance (Steele et al. in "Principles and Procedures of Statistics", McGraw-Hill, New York, 1960, p. 106). The acceptance of an assay required an appropriate response to 50 mg/kg of a positive standard p-(1-adamantyloxy)-aniline and a negative standard, (sodium carbonate).

The compounds (A) of the invention can exist in either the free base form or in the form of an acid addition salt. The acid addition salts are prepared by reacting the free base (A) with a stoichiometric proportion of an appropriate acid such as hydrochloric acid. The method is well known to those skilled in the art and can be carried out in aqueous or non-aqueous media such as ethanol, ether, ethyl acetate and the like.
The pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts can be used for the same purposes as the free base. Illustrative of pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts are those formed upon reaction of the compounds (A) with hydrochioric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, acetic acid, lactic acid, citric acid, succinic acid, benzoic acid, salicyclic acid, pamoic acid, cyclohexanesulfamic acid and the like.
This invention relates also to pharmaceutical dosage unit forms for oral administration which are useful in treating hyperlipidemia or hypercholesteremia in mammals, including humans. The term "dosage unit form" as used in this specification and in the claims refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages for mammalian subjects, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of the essential active ingredient, i.e.; a compound (A) or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof, calculated to produce the desired effect in combination with the required pharmaceutical means which adapt said ingredient for oral administration. Examples of dosage unit forms in accordance with this invention are tablets, capsules, orally administered liquid preparations in liquid vehicles, and dry preparations for the extemporaneous preparation in a liquid vehicle. Solid diluents or carriers for the solid oral pharmaceutical dosage unit forms are, for example, selected from the group consisting of lipids, carbohydrates, proteins and mineral solids, for example, starch, sucrose, kaolin, dicalcium phosphate, gelatin, acacia, corn syrup, corn starch, talc and the like. Capsules both hard and soft are formulated with suitable diluents and excipients, for example, edible oils, talc, calcium carbonate and the like and also calcium stearate. Liquid preparations for oral administration are prepared in water or aqueous vehicles which advantageously contain suspending agents, for example, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, methylcellulose, acacia, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, polyvinyl alcohol and the like.
The aforesaid carriers, vehicles, diluents, excipients, preservatives, isotonic agents and the like constitute the pharmaceutical means which adapt the preparations for oral administration.
The effective amount of a compound (A) or the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof required for oral administration to a mammal suffering from hyperlipidemia or hypercholesteremia is that amount which will provide a hypolipidemia or hypocholesteremia effect. The dose can be from about 0.1 to about 10 grams per day, administered singly or in divided doses.
The pharmaceutical dosage unit forms are prepared in accordance with the preceding general description to provide from about 100 mg. to about 5 grams of the essential active ingredient per dosage unit form.
