SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It is an object of one aspect of this invention to provide new compounds having valuable properties, especially those which can be used for the preparation of medicaments.
Upon further study of the specification and appended claims, further objects and advantages of this invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art.
These objects have been achieved by providing pyrazole derivatives of formula I, ##STR2## wherein R.sup.1 is H or Cl; R.sup.2 is 1-methyl-4-piperidyloxycarbonyl, 2-(4-phenylpiperazino)-ethoxycarbonyl, benzoxazol-2-yl, benzthiazol-2-yl, tetrazol-5-yl or 3-R.sup.3 -4-R.sup.4 -thiazolidin-2-yl; R.sup.3 is H or acyl of 1-7 C atoms; and R.sup.4 is H or COOH, and their physiologically acceptable salts.
DETAILED DISCUSSION
The present invention relates to the compounds of formula I and their physiologically acceptable salts.
The radical R.sup.1 is preferably Cl. The radical R.sup.2 is preferably 1-methyl-4-piperidyloxycarbonyl or 2-(4-phenyl-piperazino)-ethoxycarbonyl. The radicals R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are each preferably H. Acyl (in the radical R.sup.3) is preferably alkanoyl of 1-7 C atoms or benzoyl and especially acetyl, or also, for example, formyl, propionyl, butyryl, isobutyryl, valeryl, hexanoyl or heptanoyl.
Accordingly, the present invention relates in particular to those compounds of formula I in which at least one of these radicals has one of the preferred meanings indicated above.
A particularly preferred group of compounds comprises those compounds of formula I in which R.sup.1 is Cl and R.sup.2 is 1-methyl-4-piperidyloxycarbonyl or 2-(4-phenylpiperazino)-ethoxycarbonyl, and their physiologically acceptable salts.
Those compounds of formula I in which the radical R.sup.2 is 1-methyl-4-piperidyloxycarbonyl or 3-R.sup.3 -4-R.sup.4 -thiazolidin-2-yl possess one or two asymmetric carbon atoms. They can therefore be in the form of racemates or, if several asymmetric carbon atoms are present, also in the form of mixtures of several racemates and also in diverse optically active forms. Formula I includes all of these racemic and optically active forms as well as their mixtures.
The present invention also relates to a process for the preparation of the pyrazole derivatives of formula I and of their physiologically acceptable salts, comprising
(a) reacting a compound of formula II ##STR3## in which R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are as defined above, or one of its reactive derivatives, with phenylhydrazine or with one of its salts, or

in which R.sup.6 is o--H.sub.2 N--C.sub.6 H.sub.4 -- or NHR.sup.3 --CHR.sup.4 --CH.sub.2 -- and R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are as defined above, or one of its reactive derivatives, the reaction being carried out in the presence of an oxidizing agent if R.sup.6 is a o--H.sub.2 N--C.sub.6 H.sub.4 -- group, or
(f) in order to prepare a compound of formula I in which R.sup.2 is 3--R.sup.3 --4--R.sup.4 --thiazolidin-2-yl and R.sup.3 is an acyl group of 1-7 C atoms, treating a compound of formula I in which R.sup.2 is 3--R.sup.3 --4--R.sup.4 --thiazolidin-2-yl and R.sup.3 is H with an acylating agent, and/or
(g) if desired, converting a base or acid of formula I to one of its physiologically acceptable salts by treatment with an acid or base, respectively.
In other respects, the compounds of formula I are prepared by methods which are in themselves known, such as are described in the literature (for example in the standard works such as Houben-Weyl, Methoden der Organischen Chemie (Methods of Organic Chemistry), Georg-Thieme-Verlag, Stuttgart; and Organic Reactions, John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York), and in particular under reaction conditions which are known and suitable for the mentioned reactions. It is also possible to make use of variants which are in themselves known and are not mentioned in more detail here.
If desired, the starting materials can also be formed in situ, in such a way that they are not isolated from the reaction mixture but are immediately further reacted to yield the compounds of formula I.
The starting materials of formula II are new. They are obtainable, for example, by formylation of ketones of the formula p--R.sup.1 --C.sub.6 H.sub.4 --CO--CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --R.sup.2, for example with ethyl formate; these ketones, in turn, are accessible by various routes, for example analogously to the methods described further below, for example (if R.sup.2 =R.sup.5) by reacting 3-benzoyl- or 3-p-chlorobenzoylpropionic acid, or a reactive derivative thereof, with a compound of the formula H--R.sup.5 (IV) or one of its reactive derivatives, or (if R.sup.2 =tetrazol-5-yl) by reacting a nitrile of the mentioned keto-acids, or of a reactive derivative thereof, with hydrazoic acid or one of its salts, or (if R.sup.2 =benzthiazol-2-yl or 3--R.sup.3 --4--R.sup.4 --thiazolidin-2-yl) by reacting a corresponding keto-aldehyde, or a reactive derivative thereof, with a compound of the formula R.sup.6 --SH (VIII).
Suitable reactive derivatives of the compounds of formula II are preferably the corresponding enol-ethers, enol-esters or enamines, which are obtainable in conventional manner from the compounds II. The dimethylaminoenamines of the formula p--R.sup.1 --C.sub.6 H.sub.4 --CO--C(CH.sub.2 --R.sup.2).dbd.CH--N(CH.sub.3).sub.2 are particularly preferred; these are preferably obtainable by reaction of the above-mentioned ketones of the formula p--R.sup.1 --C.sub.6 H.sub.4 --CO--CH.sub.2 --CH.sub.2 --R.sup.2 with dimethylformamide dimethyl acetal in the presence of acetic acid.
The reaction of the compounds of formula II, or of their reactive derivatives, with phenylhydrazine, or its salts, can be carried out without solvents or in an inert solvent, at temperatures of approximately 0.degree. to about 160.degree. C. and preferably of 70.degree.-120.degree. C. Suitable solvents include, for example, alcohols, e.g., methanol, ethanol or n-butanol, hydrocarbons, e.g., benzene, toluene or xylene, chlorinated hydrocarbons, e.g., chlorobenzene, ethers, e.g., diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran (THF) or dioxane, ethylene glycol mono- or di-alkyl ethers or diethylene glycol mono- or di-alkyl ethers, e.g., methylglycol or ethylglycol, aliphatic carboxylic acids, e.g., acetic acid, amides, e.g., dimethylformamide (DMF) or N-methylpyrrolidone, and sulfoxides, e.g., dimethylsulfoxide. The reaction times are as a rule approximately 30 minutes to 8 hours. The reaction is preferably carried out in an approximately neutral medium, for example with the addition of acetic acid or, if a salt of phenylhydrazine is used, with the addition of sodium acetate.
Compounds of formula I in which R.sup.2 =R.sup.5 can preferably be prepared by reacting carboxylic acids of formula III, or their reactive derivatives, with compounds of formula IV, or their reactive derivatives. Suitable reactive derivatives of III include, for example, the corresponding acid halides, especially the chlorides, and also the esters, especially alkyl esters in which the alkyl group contains 1-4 C atoms, and also nitriles, amides, anhydrides or imido-esters. Suitable functional derivatives of the alcohols or phenols of formula IV include in particular the corresponding metal alcoholates and metal phenolates, especially the alkali metal alcoholates or alkali metal phenolates. The starting materials III and IV are known and their reactive derivatives can be obtained easily from these compounds by methods which are in themselves known.
An esterification reaction of the carboxylic acids III with 4-hydroxy-1-methylpiperidine or 2-(4-phenylpiperazino)-ethanol can be carried out in conventional manner in the presence or absence of an additional solvent and/or of a dehydrating agent. Suitable solvents include for example, hydrocarbons, e.g., benzene, toluene or xylene, halogenated hydrocarbons, e.g., methylene chloride, chloroform or 1,2-dichloroethane, and ethers, e.g., tetrahydrofuran. Substances which have proved suitable as dehydrating agents are, in particular, carbodiimides, e.g., dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The esterification is preferably carried out at temperatures of approximately 0.degree. to approximately 140.degree. C.; as a rule it has ended after 30 minutes to 8 hours.
A reaction of the carboxylic acids III or of their reactive derivatives, especially their chlorides, with o-aminophenol or o-amino-thiophenol is carried out by the customary methods for benzoxazole or benzthiazole syntheses. If the free acids III are used as the starting materials, the reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of a dehydrating agent, e.g., P.sub.2 O.sub.5 or polyphosphoric acid; if the chlorides are used, it is advantageous to add a base in order to bind the hydrogen chloride formed, for example dimethylaniline or pyridine, which at the same time can serve as solvents. For these reactions, the reaction temperatures are preferably approximately 20.degree. to approximately 200.degree. C., and preferentially 100.degree. to 180.degree. C. The reaction times are as a rule approximately 30 minutes to 8 hours.
Tetrazoles of formula I (R.sup.2 =tetrazol-5-yl) are preferably obtainable by reacting a nitrile of formula V, or a reactive derivative thereof, for example a corresponding imido-ester, with hydrazoic acid or one of its salts, preferably one of its alkali metal salts, e.g., sodium azide. The nitriles of formula V and the corresponding imido-esters are either known of can be prepared from known compounds with the aid of known methods. The reaction preferably proceeds in the presence of one of the aforementioned solvents. Dimethylformamide is the preferred solvent. The reaction temperatures are preferably approximately 20.degree. to approximately 200.degree. and preferentially 80.degree. to 150.degree. C. The imidoesters are preferably reacted with free hydrazoic acid in benzene at the boil. For these reactions, the reaction times are as a rule 1 hour to 10 days.
Compounds of formula I in which R.sup.2 is a tetrazol-5-yl group are also obtainable in good yields by reacting amidrazones of the formula VI, which, in turn, are readily obtainable from the corresponding nitriles and sodium hydrazide, with nitrous acid or one of its salts, preferably one of its alkali metal salts, e.g., sodium nitrite. This reaction proceeds, for example, in aqueous-alcoholic, for example, aqueous-ethanolic, solution at temperatures of approximately -10.degree. to +20.degree. C. and preferably 0.degree. to 5.degree. C. Preferably, an aqueous solution of sodium nitrite is added dropwise to an acidified alcoholic solution of the amidrazone and the reaction mixture is then left to stand at 0.degree. to 5.degree. C. for about 1 to 48 hours.
The reaction of aldehydes of the formula VII with aminothiols of the formula VIII results in compounds of the formula I in which R.sup.2 is benzthiazol-2-yl or 3--R.sup.3 --4--R.sup.4 --thiazolidin-2-yl, the reaction being carried out in the presence of an oxidizing agent in the former case. The aldehydes of the formula VII are easily obtainable by reduction of the corresponding carboxylic acids of the formula III or of their esters or by oxidation of the corresponding alcohols of the formula R--CH.sub.2 OH, which, in turn, are obtainable by reduction of the acids or of the esters. The aminothiols of the formula VIII are either known or can be prepared from known starting materials by known methods. In place of the starting materials VII and VIII, it is also possible to use corresponding reactive derivatives, for example the acetals, hemithioacetals, thioacetals, acylals or thioacylals corresponding to VII and the mercaptides, especially the alkali metal mercaptides, of VIII. The reaction of VII with VIII is preferably carried out in the presence of an inert solvent, for example of one of the abovementioned solvents; the reaction to produce the thiazolidines is carried out particularly advantageously in aqueous-alcoholic, for example aqueous-ethanolic, weakly acid solution at temperatures of approximately 0.degree. to approximately 80.degree. and preferably of 15.degree. to 30.degree. C.; the reaction to produce the benzthiazoles is carried out in a hydrocarbon, such as benzene or toluene, in the presence of an acid catalyst, e.g., hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid or p-toluenesulfonic acid, with the admission of air, at temperatures of approximately 50.degree. to approximately 150.degree. and preferably of 80.degree. to 110.degree. C. In the latter case, the presence of an oxidizing agent is required, but as a rule the admission of air or the introduction of oxygen suffices.
Compounds of formula I in which R.sup.2 is 3--acyl--4--R.sup.4 --thiazolidin-2-yl are also obtainable by conventional N-acylation of the corresponding NH compound (I, R.sup.2 =4--R.sup.4 --thiazolidin-2-yl). Suitable acylating agents include preferably the halides (for example chlorides or bromides) or anhydrides of carboxylic acids with 1-7 C atoms, for example acetic anhydride, propionyl chloride, isobutyryl bromide, formic acid/acetic acid anhydride or benzoyl chloride. The addition of a base, such as pyridine or triethylamine, during the acylation is possible but not necessary. The acylation is preferably carried out in the presence or absence of one of the inert solvents mentioned, for example benzene, at temperatures of approximately 0.degree. to approximately 160.degree. C. and preferably approximately 20.degree. to approximately 120.degree. C. The mentioned base, for example pyridine, or an excess of the acylating agent can also serve as solvents.
A base of formula I can be converted by means of an acid to the corresponding acid addition salt. Acids which can be used for this reaction are those which produce physiologically acceptable salts. Thus, it is possible to use inorganic acids, for example sulfuric acid, nitric acid, hydrogen halide acids, e.g., hydrochloric acid or hydrobromic acid, or phosphoric acids, e.g., orthophosphoric acid, and also organic acids, especially aliphatic, alicyclic, araliphatic, aromatic or heterocyclic monobasic or polybasic carboxylic, sulfonic or sulfuric acids, e.g., formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, pivalic acid, diethylacetic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, pimelic acid, fumaric acid, maleic acid, lactic acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, benzoic acid, salicylic acid, 2- or 3-phenylpropionic acid, citric acid, gluconic acid, ascorbic acid, nicotinic acid, isonicotinic acid, methane- or ethane-sulfonic acid, ethanedisulfonic acid, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, naphthalene-mono- and -di-sulfonic acids and laurylsulfuric acid.
The acids of formula I (R.sup.4 =COOH) can be converted by reaction with a base to one of their physiologically acceptable metal or ammonium salts. Suitable salts include, in particular, the sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium and ammonium salts, and also substituted ammonium salts, for example the dimethyl-, diethyl- and diisopropylammonium, monoethanol-, diethanol- and triethanol-ammonium, cyclohexylammonium, dicyclohexylammonium and dibenzylethylene diammonium salts.
The present invention also relates to the use of the compounds of formula I and their physiolgocially acceptable salts for the preparation of pharmaceutical formulations, especially by a non-chemical route. The mentioned compounds can be brought into a suitable dosage form together with at least one solid, liquid and/or semi-liquid excipient or auxiliary and, if desired, in combination with one or more additional active substances.
It has been found that the compounds of formula I possess valuable pharmacological properties coupled with good tolerance. In particular, analgesic effects are found and these can be demonstrated in mice, for example in the pain test (writhing test) by the method of Siegmund et al. (Proc. Soc. Exp. Biol. (N.Y.) 95, (1957), pages 729-731.) Furthermore, for example, effects which lower the cholesterol level and the triglyceride level are also shown and can be demonstrated in the serum of rats by the method of Levine et al. (Automation in Analytical Chemistry, Technicon Symposium 1967, Mediad, New York, pages 25-28) and by the method of Noble and Campbell (Clin. Chem. 16 (1970), pages 166-170). It is also possible to observe antiphlogistic effects (which can be demonstrated, for example, on rats by the method of Winter et al, Proc. Soc. Exp. Biol. (N.Y.) 111, (1962), page 544) and also enzyme-inducing, fibrinolytic and thrombocyte aggregation-inhibiting effects by the methods customary for this purpose.
The compounds of formula I can therefore be used as medicinally active substances in human medicine and veterinary medicine. Furthermore, they can be used as intermediate products for the preparation of other medicinally active substances.
Thus, the present invention also relates to agents, especially pharmaceutical formulations, containing at least one compound of formula I and/or one physiologically acceptable salt thereof.
These formulations can be used as medicaments for patients in human medicine or veterinary medicine. Excipients which can be used include organic or inorganic substances which are suitable for enteral (for example oral) or parenteral administration or topical application and do not react with the new compounds, for example water, vegetable oils, benzyl alcohols, polyethylene glycols, glycerol triacetate, gelatine, carbohydrates, such as lactose or starch, magnesium stearate, talc or white petroleum jelly. Formulations for oral use include in particular tablets, sugar-coated tablets, capsules, syrups, juices or drops, for rectal use include suppositories, for parenteral use include solutions, preferably oily or aqueous solutions, and also suspensions, emulsions or implants, and for topical use include ointments, creams or powders. If the medicaments are to be administered in the form of powders in measured amounts, the packaging materials, such as paper sachets or paper capsules, are also suitable excipients. The new compounds can also be lyophilized and the resulting lyophilizates can be used, for example, to prepare injection preparations. The indicated formulations can be sterilized and/or contain auxiliaries, such as lubricants, preservatives, stabilizers and/or wetting agents, emulsifiers, salts for influencing the osmotic pressure, buffer substances, dyes, flavorings and/or aroma generating substances. If desired, they can also contain one or more additional active substances, for example one or more vitamins.
The present invention also relates to the use of the compounds of formula I in combating diseases, especially painful diseases of the locomotor system (rheumatism), and pain in other organs, and also to their use in the therapeutic treatment of the human or animal body.
The substances according to this invention are as a rule administered analogously to known, commercially available analgesics or antiphlogistic agents (for example metamizole, acetylsalicylic acid and paracetamol), preferably in dosages of approximately 1 to 500 mg and especially 5 to 50 mg per dosage unit. The daily dose is preferably approximately 0.02 to 10 mg/kg of body weight. The particular dose for each specific patient depends, however, on the usual very diverse factors, for example on the effectiveness of the particular compound employed; on the age, body weight, general state of health, sex and diet of the patient; on the time and route of administration; on the rate of excretion; on the medicinal combination; and on the severity of the particular disease to which the therapy applies. Oral administration is preferred.

Without further elaboration, it is believed that one skilled in the art can, using the preceding description, utilize the present invention to its fullest extent. The following preferred specific embodiments are, therefore, to be construed as merely illustrative, and not limitative of the remainder of the disclosure in any way whatsoever. In the following examples, all temperatures are set forth uncorrected in degrees Celsius; unless otherwise indicated, all parts and percentages are by weight.
