Pyridine derivative and medicament containing the same as an effective ingredient

TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to a pyridine derivative. More specifically, this invention relates to a novel pyridine derivative or salt thereof having both excellent suppressive action against cytokine production and high safety; and a medicament comprising it as an effective ingredient.
BACKGROUND ART OF THE INVENTION
The immune system which is a defense mechanism of a living organism against exogenous or endogenous foreign bodies is formed of a marrow cell group typified by macrophages and neutrophils and a lymphocyte group such as T cells and B cells. These cell groups not only function independently but also act mutually through intercellular direct contact or soluble factors which are collectively called cytokine, thereby maintaining their homeostasis. The defense mechanism is so finely formed so that even the collapse of delicate balance induces a serious morbid state.
Such collapse of an immunocyte control mechanism triggers the production of autoantibodies or induces excessive immunoreaction, which is thought to cause collagen disease, systemic lupus erythematosus and various allergic diseases. It is known that in AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome), the infection of T cells with HIV causes decay of the immune system and this decay proceeds further. In addition, chronic diseases caused by diabetes or viruses or the development of a morbid state of a cancer also occurs partly because of the loss in immune balance.
In recent years, cytokine production suppressants such as cyclosporin and FK506, which have already been known as a rejection suppressant upon organ transplantation, have been used for the treatment of the above-described diseases. Besides, steroidal anti-inflammatory agents having inhibitory effects against cytokine production have been used for autoimmune diseases such as allergy, atopy and rheumatism and bronchial asthma and have achieved therapeutic effects to some extent.
It is well known that the immune system is indispensable for the temporary defense mechanism of a host and under the immunodeficient conditions induced by the administration of an immunosuppressant or a carcinostatic agent, the host is easily attacked by infectious diseases. At present, a medicament, for example, an immunosuppressant or steroidal anti-inflammatory agent, for suppressing the production of various cytokines cannot be applied freely to an autoimmune disease and it is limited in the administration method or drug holidays. For the treatment of the above diseases related to the immune system, there is accordingly a demand for the development of an immunoregulator with high specificity which acts on only a specific immune phenomenon.
An object of the present invention is therefore to provide a potential immunoregulator with high specificity and high safety which can suppress the excessive production of a specific cytokine in various immune diseases.
DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
Under such situations, the present inventors have synthesized many compounds and studied their suppressive action against cytokine production. As a result, it has been found that a novel pyridine derivative represented by the below-described formula (1) or salt thereof strongly suppresses the production of interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-5, has high safety and has excellent immunoregulating action, leading to the completion of the present invention.
IL-4 and IL-5 are cytokines mainly produced by Th2 helper cells type 2 (Th2). IL-4 takes part in the differentiation of B cells and has a close relationship with the allergic reaction through IgE, while IL-5 takes part in the proliferation of B cells, production of IgA and activation of eosinophilic leukocyte. The compound according to the present invention strongly suppresses the production of IL-4 and IL-5 in the cytokine network so that exasperating or suppressing action on other cytokine production is expected.
The present invention provides a pyridine derivative represented by the following formula (1): ##STR2## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are the same or different and each independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, a hydroxyalkyl group, an alkoxyalkyl group which may have a substituent, a carboxyalkyl group, an alkoxycarbonylalkyl group, an aralkyl group which may have a substituent, a phenacyl group or an acyl group, R.sup.3 represents an alkyl group, a phenyl group which may have a substituent, a heteroaryl group or a cyclic amino group represented by the following formula (2): ##STR3## in which Y represents a methylene group or an oxygen atom, m stands for 1 to 2, n stands for an integer of 1 to 3, m+n stands for an integer of 3 to 5, X represents an oxygen atom or combination of a hydroxyl group and a hydrogen atom; or a salt thereof.
The present invention also provides a medicament comprising as an effective ingredient a pyridine derivative represented by the above formula (1) or salt thereof, more specifically, a cytokine production suppressant and immunoregulator.
The present invention further provides the use of a pyridine derivative represented by the above formula (1) or salt thereof as a medicament, more specifically, the use of it as a cytokine production suppressant and immunoregulator.
The present invention still further provides a therapeutic method for cytokine-production-induced diseases or immunodysfunction-induced diseases, which comprises administering to a patient an effective amount of a pyridine derivative represented by the above formula (1) or salt thereof.

The pyridine derivative (1) or salt thereof according to the present invention may have optical isomers because it may contain an asymmetric carbon atom; or it may exist as solvated products such as hydrates. It is to be noted that these compounds are all embraced by the present invention.
The salt of the pyridine derivative (1) of the present invention is determined depending on the dissociated ions which differ with the base pyridine derivative (1). When the pyridine derivative (1) is basic, examples of the salt include hydrochloride, nitrate, hydrobromide, p-toluenesulfonate, methanesulfonate, fumarate, maleate, malonate, succinate, citrate and tartrate. When the pyridine derivative (1) is acidic, examples of the salt include sodium salt, potassium salt and ammonium salt.
The pyridine derivative (1) of the present invention is, for example, prepared based on the method in which a known compound (3) easily derived from kojic acid, which is available in a large amount and at a low cost, through two steps is introduced into a key intermediate (4), followed by Wittig reaction to obtain a pyridine derivative (1a) which is a part of the invention compound (1). ##STR4## wherein R.sup.4 represents an alkyl group, an alkoxyalkyl group which may have a substituent or an aralkyl group, R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 are the same or different and each independently represents an alkyl group, an alkoxyalkyl group which may have a substituent, an alkoxycarbonylalkyl group, an aralkyl group which may have a substituent, a phenacyl group or an acyl group and R.sup.3 has the same meaning as defined above.
The key intermediate (4) can be obtained as Compound (4) or Compound (4a) which is a part of Compound (4) from the known Compound (3) in accordance with any one of the steps shown by the following reaction scheme. ##STR5## wherein R.sup.4, R.sup.5, and R.sup.6 have the same meanings as defined above, and R.sup.7 represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkoxyalkyl group which may have a substituent, an alkoxycarbonylalkyl group, an aralkyl group which may have a substituent or an acyl group.
Described specifically, Compound (4a) can be obtained by reacting Compound (3) with a halide reagent (R.sup.5 --Y in which Y represents a halogen atom) to convert it into Compound (5) and then reacting the resulting compound with an oxidizing agent; or by reacting Compound (3) with an oxidizing agent to convert it into Compound (6) and then reacting the resulting compound with a halide reagent or an acid anhydride (R.sup.5a --O--R.sup.5a in which R.sup.5a represents an acyl group). Compound (4) can be obtained by deprotecting either Compound (4a) or Compound (6) wherein R.sup.4 represents an alkoxyalkyl group which may have a substituent or a benzyl group which may have a substituent to convert it into Compound (7) and then reacting the resulting compound with a halide reagent or an acid anhydride. Incidentally, during the above reaction steps, an N-substituted compound is formed preferentially to an O-substituted compound upon reaction with a halide reagent, but it is possible to form the O-substituted compound preferentially by properly using substrates (3), (6) and (7) and a reaction reagent.
It is preferred that the reaction to obtain Compound (5) from Compound (3) by using a halide reagent is effected in a solvent such as alcohol, tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide in the presence of a base such as potassium carbonate or sodium carbonate or, in some cases, potassium iodide or sodium iodide at a temperature ranging from room temperature to 80.degree. C.; or in a water-alcohol mixed solvent in the presence of a base such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide at a temperature ranging from 0.degree. C. to reflux temperature.
It is preferred that the reaction to obtain Compound (6) by the oxidation of Compound (3) is effected using as an oxidizing agent an excess amount of active manganese dioxide or barium manganate (VI) in a solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, 1,4-dioxane or dimethylformamide at a temperature ranging from room temperature to 100.degree. C.
The reaction to obtain Compound (4a) by the oxidation of Compound (5) is effected easily by using as an oxidizing agent an excess amount of active manganese dioxide or barium manganate (VI) in a solvent such as chloroform, dichloromethane or acetone at a temperature ranging from room temperature to reflux temperature; by the oxidation (Parikh-Doering reaction) with a dimethylsulfoxide/sulfur trioxide-pyridine complex; or by the oxidation (Swern reaction) with dimethylsulfoxide/oxalyl chloride. Alternatively, Compound (4a) can also be obtained by utilizing the oxidation reaction with pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) or pyridinium dichromate (PDC).
The reaction to obtain Compound (4a) from Compound (6) is effected by reacting Compound (6) with a halide reagent in the presence of a base such as sodium hydride or potassium hydride in a solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide at a temperature ranging from 0.degree. C. to room temperature; or by reacting Compound (6) with a halide reagent in a solvent such as alcohol, tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide in the presence of a base such as potassium carbonate or sodium carbonate or, in some cases, potassium iodide or sodium iodide at a temperature ranging from 0 to 80.degree. C. When R.sup.5 represents an acyl group, however, it is preferred to react with a halide reagent in a solvent such as dichloromethane or tetrahydrofuran in the presence of a tertiary amine such as triethylamine. When R.sup.5 represents an acetyl group, it is most preferred to effect the reaction by the acetic anhydride/sodium acetate method at a temperature ranging from room temperature to 100.degree. C.
In the reaction to obtain Compound (7) from Compound (4a) or Compound (6), employed is a compound having as R.sup.4 an eliminative substituent such as a benzyl group which may have a substituent or an alkoxyalkyl group which may have a substituent. When R.sup.4 represents a benzyl group which may have a substituent, a hydrogenation reaction in the presence of a palladium catalyst or Raney-nickel catalyst or a reductive elimination reaction with ammonium formate, cyclopentene or 1,4-cyclohexadiene is employed. When R.sup.4 represents an alkoxyalkyl group which may have a substituent, on the other hand, the reaction to be employed differs with the kind of R.sup.4. In the case of a methoxymethyl group, hydrogen chloride/isopropyl alcohol-tetrahydrofuran or dilute acetic acid is used; in the case of a methoxyethoxymethyl group, trifluoroacetic acid is used; and in the case of 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxymethyl group, sulfuric acid/methanoltetrahydrofuran or tetraalkylammonium fluoride is used, each for deprotection.
The reaction to obtain Compound (4) from Compound (7) is easily effected under the similar conditions to the reaction to obtain Compound (4a) from Compound (6).
The key intermediate (4) thus obtained and a Wittig reagent separately prepared are reacted by the Horner-Emmons reaction, whereby Compound (1a) can be obtained. This reaction is preferably effected in a solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, 1,4-dioxane or diethyl ether in the presence of a base such as sodium hydride or potassium hydride at a temperature ranging from 0.degree. C. to the room temperature.
As an alternative method of the Wittig reaction, the key intermediate (4) or Compound (6) can be introduced into Compound (1a) or Compound (1d.sub.1) by cross aldol condensation. This reaction is particularly effective when a compound having as R.sup.3 a phenyl group which may have a substituent is used as the key intermediate. ##STR6## Wherein R.sup.3 and R.sup.6 have the same meanings as defined above.
The above reaction proceeds in the presence of various bases. It is easily effected in the presence of a base such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide in a mixed solvent of water and a lower alcohol at a temperature ranging from 0.degree. C. to reflux temperature, or by using a catalytic amount of piperidine-acetic acid or piperidine-benzoic acid in a solvent such as benzene or toluene and distilling off water produced at the reflux temperature.
The hydrogen-substituted compound (1d.sub.1) or (1d.sub.2) can be introduced into the invention Compound (1a) by reacting the former with a halide reagent [R.sup.5 --Y or R.sup.6 --Y] or an acid anhydride [R.sup.5a --O--R.sup.5a or R.sup.6a --O--R.sup.6a in which R.sup.5a or R.sup.6a represents an acyl group] in the presence of a base. ##STR7## Wherein R.sup.3, R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 have the same meanings as defined above.
The introduction of Compound (1d.sub.1) or (1d.sub.2) into Compound (1a) is effected by reacting Compound (1d.sub.1) or (1d.sub.2) with a halide reagent in the presence of a base such as sodium hydride or potassium hydride in a solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, dioxane, dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide at a temperature ranging from 0.degree. C. to room temperature; or by reacting Compound (1d.sub.1) or (1d.sub.2) with a halide reagent in the presence of a base such as potassium carbonate or sodium carbonate or, in some cases, potassium iodide or sodium iodide in a solvent such as alcohol, tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide at a temperature ranging from room temperature to 80.degree. C. In the case where R.sup.5 or R.sup.6 to be introduced represents an acyl group, however, it is preferred to react Compound (1d.sub.1) or (1d.sub.2) with a halide reagent in a solvent such as dichloromethane or tetrahydrofuran in the presence of a tertiary amine such as triethylamine. In the case where R.sup.5 or R.sup.6 to be introduced represents an acetyl group, it is most preferred to effect the above reaction by the acetic anhydride/sodium acetate method at a temperature ranging from room temperature to 100.degree. C.
Next, the invention compound (1b) can be obtained by hydrolyzing the invention compound (1a.sub.1) which has, among the invention compounds (1a), an alkoxycarbonylalkyl group as at least one of R.sup.5 and R.sup.6, an acyl group as at least one of R.sup.5 and R.sup.6, or an alkoxycarbonylalkyl group as one of R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 and an acyl group as another. ##STR8## wherein R.sup.3 has the same meaning as defined above, R.sup.8 and R.sup.9 are the same or different and each independently represents a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group, an alkoxyalkyl group which may have a substituent, a carboxyalkyl group or an aralkyl group which may have a substituent, with the proviso that at least one of R.sup.8 and R.sup.9 represents a hydrogen atom or a carboxyalkyl group.
The above hydrolysis reaction proceeds in either one of an alkali or acid. The invention compound (1b) can be obtained in a high yield by the most generally employed method, that is, by carrying out the hydrolysis with a dilute aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide in a lower alcohol at a temperature ranging from room temperature to the reflux temperature.
The invention compound (1a) or (1b) can be introduced into the invention compound (1c) (the compound represented by the formula (1) in which X represents the combination of a hydroxyl group and a hydrogen atom), which is an alcohol, by reducing the carbonyl group of the .alpha.,.beta.-unsaturated ketone portion of the invention compound (1a) or (1b). ##STR9## wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 have the same meanings as defined above.
The above reaction is effected, in the presence of sodium borohydride or its related reagent (such as sodium trimethoxyborohydride, sodium cyanoborohydride or sodium triacetoxyborohydride) which is inert to a carboxylic acid or derivative thereof, in a solvent such as methanol, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, dimethylsulfoxide or acetic acid at a temperature ranging from -20.degree. C. to room temperature.
Next, the invention compound (1e) can be obtained by hydrolyzing the invention compound (1c.sub.1), among the invention compounds (1c), which has an alkoxycarbonylalkyl group as at least one of R.sup.1 and R.sup.2, an acyl group as at least one of R.sup.1 and R.sup.2, or an alkoxycarbonylalkyl group as one of R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 and an acyl group as another. ##STR10## wherein R.sup.3, R.sup.8 and R.sup.9 have the same meanings as defined above.
The above hydrolysis reaction proceeds in either one of an alkali or acid. The invention compound (1e) can be obtained in a high yield by the most usually employed method, that is, by carrying out the hydrolysis with a dilute aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide in a lower alcohol at a temperature ranging from room temperature to the reflux temperature.
Alternatively, a known compound (8) can be introduced into the invention compound (1f) by the dehydration condensation reaction with a cyclic amine. ##STR11## wherein R.sup.10 represents a group: ##STR12## in which Y represents a methylene group or an oxygen atom, m stands for 1 to 2, n stands for an integer of 1 to 3, m+n represents an integer of 3 to 5, and R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 have the same meanings as defined above.
The above reaction is effected readily by using as a base a tertiary amine at a temperature ranging from 0.degree. C. to room temperature in the presence of a condensation agent such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC) in a solvent such as dichloromethane or chloroform, or in the presence of a condensation agent such as diphenylphosphorylcyanide in a solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, dioxane, dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide.
In the above reaction, the invention compound (1) can be isolated from the final reaction mixture in a manner known per se in the art, for example, solvent extraction, recrystallization or column chromatography.
The invention compound (1) can be formed into immunoregulators of various forms such as tablets, granules, powders, capsules, suspensions, injections, suppositories or external preparations. Described specifically, in the case of a solid preparation, it is preferred to add to the invention compound (1) an excipient and optionally a binder, a disintegrator, an extender, a coating agent and/or sugar coating agent; and then form the resulting mixture into tablets, granules, capsules, suppositories or the like in a manner known per se in the art. The invention compound (1) can be formed as an injection in the liquid form by dissolving, dispersing or emulsifying it in advance in a water carrier such as distilled water for injection; or as injection powders to be reconstituted with a diluent immediately before use. The injection is administered intravenously, arterially, intraperitoneally or subcutaneously or by drip infusion.
When a medicament according to the present invention is administered to a patient, examples of the disease include cytokine-production-induced diseases and immunodysfunction-induced diseases. Specific examples include rejection reaction upon organ transplantation, autoimmune diseases such as allergy, atopy and rheumatism, bronchial asthma, IgA glomerulonephritis, osteoporosis, inflammation, cancers and HIV infection.
In the above diseases, the dosage of the medicament of the present invention differs with the administration route or symptoms, age or sex of the patient. When orally administered, the medicament is preferably administered at a dose of 0.001 to 10 mg/kg, particularly 0.01 to 1 mg/kg in terms of the pyridine derivative (1) or salt thereof per adult once or in several portions a day.

To a Balb/c mouse, the DNP-labeled ascaris antigen (5 .mu.g) and Alum (1 mg) were intraperitoneally administered on Day 1 and Day 6 to sensitize the mouse with the antibody. From Day 1 to Day 10, a medicament was orally administered at a dose of 100 mg/kg once a day. On Day 11, the mouse was subjected to splenectomy and the spleen so obtained was untangled into its cells. To 5.times.10.sup.7 cells/ml of the spleen cells so obtained, DNP-BSA (5 .mu.g/ml) was added, followed by incubation at 37.degree. C. for 24 hours. After incubation, 100 .mu.l of the supernatant were collected and subjected to the measurement an IgE measuring kit (Yamasa Co., Ltd.). In order to determine IgG1, IgG2a and IgM, the absorbance of the incubated supernatant was measured by the EIA method and provided for comparison. The inhibition rate of IgE production was calculated according to the below-described formula. Inhibition rates of the IgG1, IgG2a and IgM production were similarly calculated, respectively. The results are shown in Table 4. ##EQU4##
