Pyridopyrimidine derivatives useful in treatment of ulcers

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to novel 4-oxo-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamide derivatives and their acid addition salts which are useful as gastroprotective agents mainly for the therapy and prevention of ulcer.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
It is known that 4-oxo-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine derivatives have analgesics and other effects influencing the central nervous system (British Patent No. 1,209,946, U.S. Pat. No. 4,291,036 and German Patent No. 2,414,751). One of the most advantageous representatives of these compounds is 1,6-dimethyl-3-ethoxycarbonyl-6-methyl-4-oxo-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidinium methosulfate [Arzneimittelforschung 22, 815 (1972)] used as an analgesic drug in clinical practice. Other derivatives have been shown to exert a preferable antiarteriosclerotic (German Patent No. 2,705,775), antiallergic and antiasthmatic (Belgian Patent Nos. 873,192 and 873,194), antiinflammatory [German Patent Nos. 2,728,198 and 2,526,983; Arzneimittelforschung 29, 766 (1979)], cardiovascular [Sankyo Kenkyusho Nempo 29, 75 (1977)] and selective serotonine-2 receptor-blocking (U.S. Pat. No. 4,342,870) effects. The antiulcer action of tetrahydro- and hexahydro-4-oxo-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxylic acid derivatives have also been reported [Drugs Exptl. Clin. Res. 11, 493 (1985); ibidem 13, 253 (1987)]. Some unsaturated 4-oxo-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxylic acid derivatives showed an analgesic action which, however, could not be utilized because of the hydrolytic instability of the bicyclic moiety [Magyar Kemikusok Lapja 31, 281 (1976)].

According to another aspect of the invention, there is provided a process for the preparation of the new compounds of the formula (I), wherein R, R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and m are the same as defined above, and their pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts, which comprises
a) reacting a 4-oxo-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxylic acid ester of the formula (II), ##STR3## wherein R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and m are the same as defined above and R.sup.4 stands for a C.sub.1-4 alkyl group, with an amine of the formula (III), ##STR4## wherein R and R.sup.1 are the same as defined above; or b) reacting a 4-oxo-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxylic acid mixed anhydride of the formula (IV), ##STR5## wherein R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and m are the same as defined above and R.sup.5 means a C.sub.1-4 alkyl or a benzyl group, with an amine of the formula (III), wherein R and R.sup.1 are the same as defined above,
and, if desired, converting the thus obtained compound of the general formula (I), wherein R, R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and m are the same as defined above, with a pharmaceutically acceptable acid to the corresponding salt thereof or, if desired, liberating it from its salt or, if desired, liberating it from one of its salts and converting it to another salt thereof in a known way.
The process a) according to the invention is preferably carried out in the presence of a solvent. Organic solvents commonly employed in amidation reactions may be used. The reaction temperature may be chosen according to the properties of the reactants. The reaction may be accomplished at room temperature or at the boiling point of the solvent. However, another temperature may be used. If desired, the reaction may be carried out at a pressure different from atmospheric, preferably under an overpressure. When a water-miscible organic solvent, e.g. alcohol is used, the reaction mixture may contain an optional amount of water. In a number of cases, the compound of the formula (I) obtained is precipitated from the reaction mixture after dilution with water and may be recovered by filtration. Alternatively, it may be isolated by recrystallization of the residue after evaporation of the solvent.
In the process b) according to the invention, the compound of the formula (IV), wherein R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and m are the same as defined above and R.sup.5 means a C.sub.1-4 alkyl or benzyl group, is prepared in situ by using as a starting material the carboxylic acid of the formula (V), ##STR6## wherein R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 are the same as defined above, and the chloroformiate ester of the formula (VI),
Cl--COOR.sup.5 (VI)
wherein R.sup.5 is the same as defined above, in a manner known per se.
According to an embodiment of the process b), a compound of the formula (V) is dissolved in an organic solvent, preferably in a chlorinated hydrocarbon (most preferably in chloroform) or in an ether, (most preferably in dioxane or tetrahydrofuran) and, after adding a trialkylamine, preferably triethylamine or tributylamine, a compound of the formula (VI), preferably methyl, ethyl, benzyl or isopropyl chloroformiate is dropwise added to the solution obtained at a temperature between -30.degree. C. and 50.degree. C., preferably between -20.degree. C. and 0.degree. C. To the compound of the formula (IV) thus obtained, wherein R.sup.5 is the same as defined above, an amine of the general formula (III) is added dropwise (if desired, as a solution) in the solvent defined above or, on the use of its acid addition salt, together with a trialkylamine, preferably with triethylamine or tributylamine), and the reaction mixture is stirred at the temperature range defined above and then allowed to warm to room temperature and subsequently washed with an aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and then with water. After drying, the reaction mixture is evaporated and the residue is recrystallized from a suitable solvent.
The ratio of the reactants may arbitrarily be selected in both processes a) and b). It is preferable to react 1 mole of a compound of the formula (II) or (IV), wherein R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are the same as defined above, with 1 to 10 moles of the amine of the formula (III), wherein R and R.sup.1 are the same as defined above.
A part of the compounds containing a bridgehead nitrogen used as starting materials are known. The starting substances of the formulae (II) and (V) are known from the literature [Arnzeimittelforschung 22, 815 (1972)] or may be prepared in an analogous manner. The amines of the formula (III) and compounds of the formula (VI) are commercially available.
The toxicity of the compounds of the formulae (I) and (II) is low, in general their oral LD.sub.50 values are higher than 250 mg/kg in rats and mice.
The compounds of the formula (I) and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts possess a significant gastroprotective effect and exert their protective and healing (therapeutic) action both in the stomach and the small intestine as well. The activity of the compounds of the formula (I) was demonstrated in standard tests generally accepted for determining the antiulcerogenic effect.
As an example, the efficacy on the gastric ulcer induced in rats by 0.5 ml of a mixture containing 96% ethanol and hydrochloric acid in an 1:0.02 volume ratio is illustrated in Table 1 [for the method, see: Gastroenterology 77, 433 (1979)].

The inhibiting effect N-propyl-6-methyl-4-oxo-4H-pyrido[1,2-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamide on the formation of the indomethacin-induced duodenal ulcer in rats is given as an example. This compound was administered in a dose of 50 mg/kg on 4 consecutive days. On the 2nd day, a 15 mg/kg oral dose of indomethacin was given to unstarved rats. The ulcer formation was determined in the small intestine by using the method of Tsuromi [J. Pharm. Dyn. 3, 659 (1980)] on the 3rd day following the administration of indomethacin. In comparison to the control, the compound according to the invention exerted an inhibition of 58% on the ulcer formation.
The compound of the formula (I) or its salts may therapeutically be used in the form of compositions containing the active ingredient in an admixture with inert solid or liquid organic or inorganic carriers. These compositions can be prepared by using methods well known in the pharmaceutical industry.
The compositions may be formulated for oral or parenteral use in the form of e.g. tablets, dragees, capsules or in the sustained-release variants thereof. The compositions may contain suitable solid diluents or carriers, sterile aqueous solvents or non-toxic organic solvents. The compositions for oral use may be supplemented with sweetening or flavoring (aromatizing) agents which are suitable for this purpose.
Tablets for oral use may contain: carriers such as lactose, sodium citrate, or calcium carbonate; disintegrating agents such as starch or alginic acid; and sliding agents such as talc, sodium lauryl sulfate or magnesium stearate. The carrier in capsules may be e.g. lactose or polyethylene glycol. Aqueous suspensions may contain emulsifying or suspending agents. The diluent of a suspension in an organic solvent may be glycerol, ethanol, chloroform and the like.
The compositions for parenteral use are solutions or suspensions of the active ingredient in a suitable medium such as peanut oil, sesame oil, polypropylene glycol or water.
The active ingredient content of the pharmaceutical compositions according to the invention may be varied within wide limits, say, 0.005 to 99%.
The daily dose of the active ingredient may also be varied within wide limits and depends on the severity of the disease as well as on the age and body weight of the patient, on the formulation of the composition and efficiency of the active ingredient used. For oral use, the daily dose of the active ingredient is commonly between 0.05 and 15 mg/kg daily once or in divided doses. However, the above data are only informative in character, which may be increased or lowered, dependently on the demands of the situation and prescriptions of the physician. When justified, compositions (formulations) differing from the above application forms may also be used.
