Abstract
New quinolone-carboxylic acids of the general formula (I) ##STR1## wherein the definitions for R.sub.1 -R.sub.9 are given in the description, a process for their preparation and their use as medicaments, in particular as antiviral agents.
Description

The present invention relates to new quinolone-carboxylic acid derivatives, to a process for their preparation and to their use as medicoments, in particular as antiviral agents.
It is known that some quinolonecarboxylic acid derivatives have excellent antibacterial activity. Little has hitherto been disclosed about the antiviral action of quinolones. Thus E. Ferrazzi et al. described the antiviral action of norfloxacin, coumermycin A.sub.1 and nalidixic acid against BK viruses which belong to the papovaviruses (Biochemical Pharmacology, Vol. 37, No. 9, pp. 1885-1886, 1986).
At the 5th AIDS conference in Montreal, Canada, L. Gurtler et. al. reported on the inhibition of HIV reverse transcriptase by ofloxacin, ciprofloxacin and norfloxacin (Abstract C. 624).

Some of the compounds according to the invention are obtained by starting from compounds of the general formula ##STR211## where R, R.sup.1, R.sup.2, A and R.sup.6 -R.sup.9 have the abovementioned meaning and the radicals R.sup.30 and R.sup.50 are identical or different.
The general formula (VII) is distinguished by the fact that secondary or primary amines are present in R.sup.30 and in R.sup.50, only in R.sup.30 or only in R.sup.50. The structures of R.sup.30 and R.sup.50 are determined by the substituents of the above-defined radicals R.sup.3 or R.sup.5, to which this criterion applies.
These compounds are reacted with acylating agents or alkylating agents of the general formula (VIII)
V--W (VIII)
in which W=
CN
(C.sub.2 -C.sub.4)-acyl, optionally substituted
(C.sub.1 -C.sub.4) -sulphonyl
(C.sub.1 -C.sub.4) -alkoxycarbonyl
(C.sub.1 -C.sub.5)-alkyl
and V represents a leaving group, such as
V=
halogen
trifluoromethanesulphonate
mesylate
tosylate
acetate
trihaloacetate
if appropriate in the presence of diluents and if appropriate in the presence of acid binders (method D).
If, for example, 1-(2-fluoro-4-piperazinylphenyl)-6-fluoro-7-piperazinyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid and methanesulphonyl chloride are used as starting materials, the course of the reaction can be represented by the following equation.
Equation IV: ##STR212##
Compounds of the type (VII) can be prepared by the methods A, B and C.
Compounds of the type (VIII) are known (Beilsteins Handbuch der Organischen Chemie [Beilstein's Handbook of Organic Chemistry], volumes 2 and 3). Examples which may be mentioned are: cyanogen bromide, acetyl chloride, propionyl chloride, butyryl chloride and methanesulphonyl chloride. The corresponding anhydrides (for example acetic anhydride) can also be used instead of organic acid chlorides.
Diluents employed in the reaction of (VII) with (VIII) are preferably dimethyl sulphoxide, N,N-dimethylformamide, acetonitrile, pyridine or mixtures of these diluents. Acid binders which can be used are all customary inorganic and organic acid-binding agents. These preferably include the alkali metal hydroxides, alkali metal carbonates, organic amines and amidines. The following may be mentioned in detail as particularly suitable: triethylamine, 1,4-diazabicyclo(2.2.2]octane, (DABCO) and 1,8-diazaLbicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene, (DBU).
The reaction is carried out in the temperature range between -100.degree. C. and 200.degree. C., preferably between -20.degree. C. and 100.degree. C.
The reaction can be carried out at normal pressure, but also at elevated pressure. In general, the reaction is carried out at pressures between 1 and 100 bar, preferably at 1 to 10 bar.
When carrying out the process according to the invention, 1 to 10 mols, preferably 2 to 6 mols of a compound of the general formula (VIII) are in general employed per mol of a compound of the general formula (VII).
Other compounds according to the invention are obtained when compounds of the general formula (VII) are reacted with compounds of the general formula (IX)
CH.sub.2 .dbd.CH--U (IX)
in which U denotes an electron-attracting group such as COOB, COB, CONH.sub.2, CN, SO.sub.2 B or SO.sub.3 B and B represents C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl which is optionally substituted, if appropriate in the presence of diluents (method E)
If, for example, 1-(2-fluoro-4-piperazinylphenyl)-6-fluoro-7-piperazinyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid and ethyl acrylate are used as starting materials, the course of the reaction can be represented by the following equation (V):
Equation V: ##STR213##
The reaction of (VII) with (IX) according to method E is preferably carried out in a diluent such as dimethyl sulphoxide, N,N-dimethylformamide, sulpholane, acetonitrile, water, an alcohol such as methanol, ethanol, n-propanol or isopropanol, glycol monomethylether or pyridine. Mixtures of these diluents may also be used.
The reaction temperature is in the range between -100.degree. C. and 200.degree. C., preferably between -20.degree. C. and 80.degree. C.
The reaction can be carried out at normal pressure, but also at elevated pressure. In general, the reaction is carried out at pressures between 1 and 100 bar, preferably at 1 to 10 bar.
When carrying out the process according to the invention, 1 to 10 mols, preferably 2 to 6 mols of a compound of the general formula (IX) are employed per mol of a compound of the general formula (VII).
Compounds according to the invention are also obtained when compounds of the general formula (VII) are reacted with carboxylic acids of the general formula (X)
D--COOH (X)
in which D represents H or optionally substituted (C.sub.1 -C.sub.4)-alkyl, if appropriate in the presence of diluents and if appropriate in the presence of dehydrating reagents and if appropriate in the presence of a catalyst (method F)
If, for example, 1-(2-fluoro-4-piperazinylphenyl)-6-fluoro-7-piperazinyl-1,4-dihydro-4-oxo-3-quinolinecarboxylic acid and formic acid are used as starting materials, the course of the reaction can be represented by the following equation (VI).
Equation VI: ##STR214##
The reaction can be carried out at normal pressure, but also at elevated pressure. In general, the reaction is carried out at pressures between 1 and 100 bar, preferably at 1 to 10 bar.
When carrying out the process according to the invention, 1 to 10 mols, preferably 2 to 6 mols of a compound of the general formula (X) are employed per mol of a compound of the general formula (VII).
Compounds of the type (X) are known (Beilstein, volumes 2 and 3). Examples which may be mentioned are: formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid and isobutyric acid.
The reaction of (VII) to give (X) is preferably carried out in a diluent such as dimethyl sulphoxide, N,N-dimethylformamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, hexamethylphosphoramide, sulpholane, acetonitrile, methylene chloride, benzine, toluene or pyridine. Mixtures of these diluents may also be used.
Suitable dehydrating agents are preferably molecular sieve, solvents such as methylene chloride, benzene or toluene, which form azeotropes with water, but are immiscible with water, or compounds which react with water but not with the reaction components, such as, for example, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC). 4-N,N-Dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP), for example, can be used as a catalyst.
The reaction temperature is in the range from -100.degree. C. to 200.degree. C., preferably in the range from 0.degree. C. to 150.degree. C.
The acid addition salts of the compounds according to the invention are prepared in a customary manner, for example by dissolving the betaine in excess aqueous acid and precipitating the salts using a water-miscible organic solvent such as methanol, ethanol, acetone or acetonitrile. Equivalent amounts of betaine and acid can also be heated in water or an alcohol such as glycol monomethyl ether and then evaporated to dryness or the precipitated salt filtered off with suction. Pharmaceutically utilizable salts are to be understood as meaning, for example, the salts of hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid, acetic acid, glycolic acid, lactic acid, succinic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid, methanesulphonic acid, galacturonic acid, gluconic acid, embonic acid, glutamic acid or aspartic acid.
The alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salts of the carboxylic acids according to the invention are obtained, for example, by dissolving the betaine in a sub-equivalent amount of alkali metal hydroxide or alkaline earth metal hydroxide solution, filtering off undissolved betaine and evaporating the filtrate to dryness. Sodium salts, potassium salts or calcium salts are pharmaceutically suitable . The corresponding silver salts are obtained by reaction of an alkali metal salt or an alkaline earth metal salt with a suitable silver salt such as silver nitrate.
The compounds shown in Table 1 as examples can also be prepared in addition to the active compounds mentioned in the examples, it being possible for these compounds to be present both as diastereomer mixtures and as diastereomerically pure or enantiomerically pure compounds.

USE EXAMPLES
It was surprisingly found in the context of the investigations which led to the present invention that the compound of the general formula (I) to be used according to the invention has an exceptionally strong action against retroviruses. This is illustrated by way of example for the compound on the visna virus in cell cultures by the experimental data given further below. The visna virus and the HIV virus (human immunodeficiency virus) both belong to the retrovirus subfamily of the lentiviruses [Haase A. T. Nature (1986) 322, 130-136]. Both viruses have a similar genome organization and a complex transcription pattern compared to the other retroviruses [Sojijo P. et al., Cell (1985), 42, 369-382; Davis J. L. et al., Journal of Virolocjy (1987) 61, pp. 1325-1331).
Moreover, it has been shown [Frank, K. B. , et al. , Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy (1987) 32 (9), pp. 1369-1374] that known inhibitors of HIV also inhibit the visna virus in vitro in comparable concentrations; i.e. this model is suitable for the testing and discovery of inhibitors of HIV.
In cell cultures which have been infected with visna virus, pronounced virus-induced cytopathic effects occur 5 to 10 days after the infection. It was possible to prevent the occurrence of these cytopathic effects by treatment of the infected cell cultures with the compound according to the invention.
The visna virus test was carried out by the method of O. Narayan et al., Journal of Infectious Diseases 135, 5, 1977, 800-806. For this purpose, the compound according to the invention was diluted in culture medium in non-cytotoxic concentrations in 96-well microtitre plates. Sheep fibroblast cells (5.times.10.sup.4 cells per well) in production medium were then added to each well. Each well was then filled with 50 .mu.l of a visna virus solution having a titre of about 2.5.times.10.sup.4 TCID.sub.50 (TCID=tissue culture infectious dose). This virus dose corresponds to an MOI (multiplicity of infection) of about 0.05.
Under these infection conditions, a virus-induced cytopathic effect resulted between day 5 and day 10 in one infection control without substance. The infected and treated cells and the control cells were incubated at 37.degree. C. 5% CO.sub.2 for 7 days.
On occurrence of the virus-induced cytopathogenic effect in the untreated virus control, the cultures were fixed with formalin and then stained using a Giemsa solution. The inhibitory concentration (IC.sub.50) was determined microscopically as the concentration at which the cytopathic effect was inhibited by 50% in comparison to th& untreated virus control, which exhibited 100% cell destruction.
It was found that the visna virus-infected cells were protected from the virus-induced cell destruction using the compounds according to the invention. This is shown as an example with the aid of the data for the following compounds:
