DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The reaction scheme below illustrates the synthesis of the compounds of this invention. In the reaction schemes and discussion that follow, except where otherwise stated, formula I and substituents R.sup.1 through R.sup.14 are defined as above. ##STR5##
The above reaction scheme illustrates a method of preparing compounds of the formula I. For those compounds of the formula I wherein R.sup.2 is other than hydrogen, an initial condensation reaction is carried out by reacting a substituted amine of the formula II with an appropriately functionalized beta-keto ester of the formula ##STR6## wherein R.sup.15 is methyl or ethyl. This reaction is generally carried out in an inert solvent such as ethyl ether, a halogenated hydrocarbon, dimethylformamide (DMF), acetonitrile or a lower alcohol, preferably ethanol, at a temperature from about ambient temperature to about the reflux temperature of the solvent, preferably from about 40.degree. C. to about 100.degree. C. It is preferable to remove water as it is formed in the reaction using, for example, molecular sieves, sodium sulfate, magnesium or calcium sulfate (preferably calcium sulfate), and to catalyze the reaction with a small quantity of acid (e.g., hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, paratoluenesulfonic acid or phosphoric acid), preferably acetic acid.
For those compounds wherein R.sup.2 is hydrogen, the condensation reaction is carried out by reacting a malonate of the formula VII ##STR7## wherein each R.sup.15 is independently selected from methyl and ethyl, with an amine the formula II in an inert solvent, preferably toluene, at a temperature from about ambient temperature to about the reflux temperature of the solvent, preferable from about 20.degree. C. to about 120.degree. C.
The compound of formula III produced in the foregoing reaction may be cyclized by heating it in a high boiling, inert solvent (e.g., xylenes, mesitylene or diphenyl ether), preferably diphenyl ether/biphenyl (Dowtherm, trademark), at a temperature from about 140.degree. C. to about 270.degree. C., preferably about 250.degree. C. Where substitution of the aniline of formula II is unsymmetrical, cyclization may yield a compound of the formula IV as a mixture of isomers. These isomers may be separated by a number of purification methods well known to those skilled in the art (e.g., chromatography, crystallization, etc.)
The condensation reaction using a compound of the formula VII and the subsequent cyclization reactions described above produce compounds wherein R.sup.3 is --COOR.sup.15. These esters can be converted to the corresponding carboxylic acids, and the resulting acids decarboxylated to form the corresponding compounds wherein R.sup.3 is hydrogen. The hydrolysis reaction is typically conducted using an alkali metal hydroxide in water, a lower alcohol, tetrahydrofuran (THF), acetonitrile or an aqueous mixture of these solvents. It is preferably in aqueous sodium hydroxide. Suitable temperatures for this reaction range from about room temperature to about the reflux temperature of the solvent. The reflux temperature is preferred. The decarboxylation is generally carried out by heating the acid in an inert solvent (e.g., quinaldine, diphenyl ether or mesitylene), preferably in diphenyl ether/biphenyl (Dowtherm, trademark), at a temperature from about 150.degree. C. to about 280.degree. C., preferably about 250.degree. C.
Compounds of the formula IV wherein R.sup.2 is hydrogen are preferably prepared by condensing the appropriate aniline of formula II with 5-(alkoxymethylene)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane- 4,6-dione and then heating the 'so obtained 5-(anilinomethylene)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione at 200.degree. C. to about 270.degree. C. according to procedures described in the literature. (See McNab et al., J. Chem. Soc., Perkin Trans. I, 853-868 (1988); Culbertson et al., J. Heterocyclic Chem., 24, 1509-1520 (1987); Matyus et al., Heterocycles, 20, 2225-2228 (1983); Bihlmayer et al., Montash. Chem., 98, 584-578 (1967); and British Patent 1,147,760 (1966) to Sterling Drug Inc.)
Treatment of a compound of the formula IV with phosphorus pentachloride, phosphorus oxychloride or a mixture of the two yields the corresponding compound of formula V. The reaction temperature may range from about -10.degree. C. to about 180.degree. C. Preferably, the compound of formula IV is treated with phosphorus oxychloride and DMF at a temperature from about 0.degree. C. to about 75.degree. C.
Compounds of the formula V may be converted to the corresponding compounds of formula I by reacting them with the appropriate amine of the formula HNR.sup.1 neat or in an inert solvent such as a lower alcohol, a halogenated hydrocarbon or (DMF), preferably ethanol, at a temperature from about ambient temperature to about 180.degree. C., depending on the reactivity of the particular amine. The preferred solvent is ethanol.
Compounds of the formula I wherein R.sup.5, R.sup.6 or R.sup.7 is amino may be prepared by reduction of the corresponding compounds wherein R.sup.5, R.sup.6 or R.sup.7 respectively, is nitro using methods well known in the art. (See March, "Advanced Organic Chemistry", pp. 1125-1126, McGraw-Hill Book Company, New York, 1977). It is preferable to use hydrogen gas at a pressure of about 1 atmosphere in the presence of palladium on carbon, and to conduct the reaction in a lower alcohol solvent at about room temperature.
Similarly, compounds of the formula I wherein R.sup.5 is --NHC(.dbd.NR.sup.5)R.sup.9, --NHSO.sub.2 R.sup.11, --NHCOR.sup.12, guanidino or ureido, or wherein R.sup.6 is --NHCOR.sup.13, --NHC(.dbd.NR.sup.8)R.sup.9, --NHSO.sub.2 R.sup.13, guanidino or ureido, or wherein R.sup.7 is --NHC(.dbd.NR.sup.8)R.sup.9, --NHSO.sub.2 R.sup.14, --NHCOR.sup.14, ureido or guanidino, may be prepared from the corresponding amino compounds using procedures well known to those skilled in the art. (See, for the preparation of amides, March, "Advanced Organic Chemistry", pp. 392-393, McGraw-Hill Book Company, New York, 1977. See, for the preparation of sulfonamides, March, "Advanced Organic Chemistry", pp 451-452, McGraw-Hill Book Company, New York, 1977. See, for the preparation of amidines, March, "Advanced Organic Chemistry", pp. 823-824 and p. 891, McGraw-Hill Book Company, New York, 1977. See, for the preparation of ureas, March, "Advanced Organic Chemistry", pp. 823, McGraw-Hill Book Company, New York, 1977. See, for the preparation of guanidines, Scott et al., J. Amer. Chem. Soc., 75, 4053 (1953), Bannard, R. A. B. et al., Can. J. Chem., 36, 1541 (1958) and Bodansky, M., J. Amer. Chem. Soc. 86, 4452 (1964).
Compounds of the formula I wherein R.sup.5, R.sup.6 or R.sup.7 is hydroxy or wherein R.sup.5 and R.sup.6, or R.sup.5 and R.sup.7 are both hydroxy may be prepared by treating the corresponding methoxy compounds with concentrated hydrogen bromide or hydrogen iodide or by heating them with aluminum chloride in an appropriate solvent such as toluene heated at reflux. Alternatively, the corresponding methoxy intermediates can be treated with boron tribromide or boron tribromide-methyl sulfide complex in an appropriate solvent such as methylene chloride or 1,2-dichloroethane, as exemplified below. ##STR8## The resulting hydroxy compounds can then be reacted with the appropriate amines, as described above, to produce the desired compounds of structure I that are substituted in 5, 6 and/or 7 positions.
Compounds of the formula I wherein R.sup.5 i's 5-pyrazolyl may be prepared as described in Example 17.
Except where otherwise noted, pressure is not critical in any of the above reactions. Preferred temperatures for the above reactions were stated where known. In general, the preferred temperature for each reaction is the lowest temperature at which product will be formed.
The pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of compounds of the formula I are prepared in a conventional manner by treating a solution or suspension of the free base of formula I with about one chemical equivalent of a pharmaceutically acceptable acid. Conventional concentration and recrystallization techniques are employed in isolating the salts. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable acids are acetic, lactic, succinic, maleic, tartaric, citric, gluconic, ascorbic, benzoic, methanesulfonic, cinnamic, fumaric, phosphonic, hydrochloric, hydrobromic, hydroiodic, sulfamic and sulfonic acid.
The active compounds of this invention and their pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts are useful in stimulating, restoring or enhancing the immune response of a host vertebrate, thus increasing the host's resistance to infection or infestation by bacteria, viruses, fungi, etc. They are therefore useful, alone or in combination with antiinfective therapy, in the prophylactic or therapeutic treatment of any infectious disease.
The activity of the compounds of this invention as immunostimulants may be determined by the following procedure.
Mice (Harlan Sprague Dawley, female) in the control group (i.e., those not receiving drug) and those in the experimental group are infected with E. coli 51A760 (2.times.10.sup.7 colony forming units) by intraperitoneal injection. (A subtherapeutic dose of gentamicin (0.5 mg/kg) may be optionally administered subcutaneously to mice in both the experimental and the control group 0.5, 4, and 24 hours after such injection). Twenty-four hours before the injection with E. coli, the mice in the experimental group are treated subcutaneously with drug dissolved or suspended in pyrogen-free saline. The number of surviving mice in the control and experimental groups 96 hours after such infection is recorded. A compound is considered active if the number of surviving mice in the experimental group is significantly higher than those surviving in the control group.
The compounds of this invention may be administered alone, but will generally be administered in admixture with a pharmaceutical carrier selected with regard to the intended route of administration and standard pharmaceutical practice. They can be injected parenterally, for example, intramuscularly, intravenously or subcutaneously. For parenteral administration, they are best used in the form of a sterile aqueous solution which can contain other solutes, for example, enough salt or glucose to make the solution isotonic. In the case of vertebrates other than humans, compounds can be administered intramuscularly or subcutaneously at dosage levels of about 0.1-50 mg/kg/day, advantageously 0.2-10 mg/kg/day given in a single daily dose or up to 3 divided doses.
The compounds of this invention can be administered to humans for the treatment of bacterial diseases by the parenteral route. For intramuscular or intravenous administration, dosage levels are about 0.1-200 mg/kg/day, advantageously 0.5-50 mg/kg/day. While intramuscular administration may consist of a single dose or up to 3 divided doses, intravenous administration can consist of a continuous drip. Variations will necessarily occur depending on the weight and condition of the subject being treated and the particular route of administration chosen, as will be known to those skilled in the art.
The present invention is illustrated by the following examples. It will be understood, however, that the invention is not limited to the specific details of these examples. Melting points are uncorrected. Proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectra (.sup.1 H NMR) and .sup.13 C nuclear magnetic resonance spectra (.sup.13 C NMR) were measured for solutions in deuterodimethylsulfoxide (d.sub.6 -DMSO) and peak positions are expressed in parts per million (ppm) downfield from tetramethylsilane (TMS). The peak shapes are denoted as follows: s, singlet; d, doublet, t, triplet; q, quartet; m, multiplet; br, broad; c, complex.

A. 9-Hydroxy-7-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-f]quinoline
To a suspension of 6-aminoindazole (40.0 g, 0.30 mol) in absolute ethanol (500 ml) was added ethyl acetoacetate (70.37 g, 54 mol), calcium sulfate (CaSO.sub.4) (20 g) and acetic acid (2 ml). The reaction mixture was heated to reflux and after 24 hours more calcium sulfate (10 g) and ethyl acetoacetate (19 ml) was added and the reflux continued for another 24 hour period. It was necessary to add more CaSO.sub.4 (5 g) and ethyl acetoacetate (10 ml) and to reflux the reaction mixture for an additional 24 hours to complete the conversion of 6-aminoindazole to product. The solid was removed by filtration and the filtrate subjected to rotary evaporation. Ethanol was added and the slurry cooled in a refrigerator. The solid was collected by filtration, washed with hexanes and dried in a vacuum oven to give the cyclization precursor ethyl 3-(indazol-6-ylamino)but-2-enoate as a light brown solid (62.19 g, 84%).
A fraction of this material (30.00 g, 0.12 mol) was added to boiling diphenyl ether/biphenyl, (Dowtherm trademark), (i.e., a mixture of biphenyl and diphenylether) (600 ml) in portions. Upon completion of the addition, the reaction was continued for an additional 6 minutes. On cooling the reaction a precipitate formed which was collected by filtration and washed thoroughly with hexanes to give 9-hydroxy-7-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-f]quinoline as a tan solid (23 g, 94%).

To a suspension of 9-hydroxy-7-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-f]quinoline (8.00 g, 0.04 mmol) in phosphorus oxychloride (61.6 g, 0.40 mol) was added slowly N,N-dimethylformamide (40 ml). After the addition was complete, the reaction mixture was warmed to 80.degree. C. for 1 hour and then allowed to cool to room temperature. The reaction was poured onto ice and dissolved in water (2 L total volume) and neutralized to pH 7 with 20% sodium hydroxide (NaOH). The precipitate which formed upon neutralization was collected by filtration, washed with water and dried under vacuum to give 9-chloro-7-methyl-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-f]quinoline as a white solid (8.07 g, 92%).

C.; m/e 362; NMR (deuterochloroform) showed a new peak at .delta. 4.69 ppm (s, 2H, CH.sub.2 OH), and no peaks indicating the presence of an ethoxy group.
