Briefly, an aromatic ketone (1) and oxalic acid dialkyl ester are treated in an alcoholic solvent (e.g., methanol or ethanol) in the presence of a sodium alkoxide (e.g., sodium methoxide or sodium ethoxide), to thereby yield a compound (2). The reaction temperature is preferably −10 to 100° C.
The compound (2) may alternatively be prepared by dissolving or suspending a compound (1) and oxalic acid dialkyl ester in a suitable solvent (such as N,N-dimethylformamide), and then causing reaction with sodium hydride in an argon stream at −20 to 20° C.
Alternatively, the compound (2) may be prepared by dissolving the compound (1) in an inert solvent such as tetrahydrofuran; and under cooling, treated with a base such as lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide, and reacted with diethyl oxalate ester.

The compound (1) may be a commercial product. Alternatively, the compound (1) may be produced through a method described in the Referential Examples below or similar methods.
When the compound (1) has functional groups such as hydroxyl and amino, preferably, they are protected by suitable protective groups in advance. Exemplary protective groups for hydroxyl include tert-butyl and benzyl; and exemplary protective groups for amino group include trifluoroacetyl, tert-butoxycarbonyl, and benzyloxycarbonyl. These protective groups may be removed under conditions suitable for the respective protective groups.
Subsequently, the compound (2) is dissolved in alcohol (methanol or ethanol). To the resultant solution, a hydrazine derivative (4) or a salt thereof is added at room temperature. After addition of a suitable volume of acetic acid, the mixture is refluxed with heat, to thereby yield a compound (5).

The alcohol (Ib) is then dissolved in methylene chloride or a similar solvent, and in the presence of a base such as pyridine, the solution is reacted with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid anhydride at −50 to 50° C., to thereby yield a compound (Ic). Next, the compound (Ic) is dissolved in dichloroethane or a similar solvent.

When the nitrile (Id) is dissolved in a solvent such as methanol or tetrahydrofuran, and then hydrolyzed with sodium hydroxide, an amide (Ie) can be produced. The reaction temperature is preferably from 0 to 100° C. Alternatively, the nitrile (Id) may be transformed into a carboxylic acid, followed by a fusion reaction using, for example, aqueous ammonia, ammonium chloride, and a suitable fusion agent, whereby an amide (Ie) can be produced.

Human blood was drawn by use of 3.13% sodium citrate as an anticoagulant in a volume 1/10 the blood volume. The blood was centrifuged at 180×g for 10 minutes to separate platelet rich plasma (PRP) from the blood. Upper layer PRP was removed, and the lower layer was centrifuged at 1600×g for 10 minutes, to thereby recover the upper layer platelet poor plasma (PPP). A solution (1 μL) of compound of the present invention was added to PRP (200 μL), and the mixture was allowed to stand at 37° C. for 2 minutes. Subsequently, collagen (2 μL) was added to the resultant mixture so as to induce platelet aggregation. Percent platelet aggregation was measured using PAM-12C (SSR Engineering). Optical transmittance of PPP was regarded as an indicator of 100% aggregation. Percent platelet aggregation values of the respective compounds were determined at different concentrations. IC50 values were calculated. Table 1 shows the results.
COX-1 inhibiting activity and COX-2 inhibiting activity of inventive compounds produced in some of the Examples herein were measured by use of a COX Inhibitor Screening Assay Kit (product of Cayman Chemical Company, Catalog Nos. 560101 and 560121).
Before starting the measurement, a reaction buffer, heme, arachidonic acid, SnCl2, EIA buffer, washing buffer, prostaglandin (PG) screening EIA standard, PG screening acetylcholine esterase (AchE), tracer (chromogenic enzyme HRP conjugate), and PG screening EIA antiserum were prepared ready for use.
Production of PGF in the Presence of COX-1 or COX-2
A reaction mixture containing a compound of the present invention from the Examples (50 μM) and COX-1 or COX-2 was allowed to stand at 37° C. for 10 minutes. Arachidonic acid (10 μL) was added thereto, and the resultant mixture was further allowed to stand at 37° C. for 2 minutes. 1N-Hydrochloric acid (50 μL) was added to the reaction mixture, to thereby stop the reaction. SnCl2 solution (100 μL) was added thereto, and the resultant mixture was allowed to stand at room temperature for 5 minutes.
Antiserum (rabbit anti-PGF2α antibody, 50 μL) was added to the wells of a 96-well plate that had been coated with mouse anti-rabbit IgG. A solution of PGF2α-containing mixture obtained above (2000-fold dilution, 50 μL) and an AchE tracer (50 μL) were sequentially added to each well, and the mixture was allowed to stand at room temperature for 18 hours. The wells were washed 5 times with the washing buffer to remove an excessive AchE tracer, and an Ellman reagent (200 μL) was added. After keeping the plate in a dark room for 60 minutes, absorbance was measured at 405 nm.
A calibration curve was obtained by use of a PG screening EIA standard, and the production amount of PGF2α was determined from the absorbance Percent inhibition against COX-1 or COX-2 in the presence of a 50 μM of the compound was calculated. Table 1 shows the results.
Notably, the percentage of the amount of PGF2α produced by use of a reaction mixture containing no compound was regarded as 100% in calculation of percent inhibition
As is clear from Table 1, the compounds (I) of the present invention, salts thereof, and solvates or the compounds or the salts were confirmed to have strong platelet aggregation inhibitory activity without inhibiting COX-1 or COX-2.
