Abstract
The invention relates to quinuclidines, processes for their preparation and their use as medicaments having cholinomimetic properties.
Description

The invention relates to new quinuclidines, processes for their preparation and their use as medicaments.
The new quinuclidines correspond to the general formula ##STR1## wherein R denotes alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl;
X denotes oxygen or sulphur and
n denotes 0, 1 or 2;
and include all racemates, enantiomers, diastereomers and mixtures thereof, and pharmacologically acceptable acid addition salts thereof and also quaternary salts thereof.
Alkyl groups in the context of this invention are understood as being branched or unbranched alkyl radicals having 1 to 6 carbon atoms, such as e.g. methyl, ethyl, propyl, butyl, pentyl and hexyl, and also branched isomers thereof, such as e.g. iso-propyl, iso-butyl, tert,-butyl etc.; alkenyl groups are understood as being branched or unbranched alkenyl radicals having 3 to 6 carbon atoms--such as e.g. propenyl, butenyl, pentenyl and hexenyl--with a double bond; and alkynyl groups are understood as being branched or unbranched alkinyl radicals having 3 to 6 carbon atoms--such as e.g, propynyl, butynyl and pentynyl--with a triple bond. Those alkenyl or alkinyl radicals in which the double or triple bond is in the terminal position are preferred.
Preferred compounds of the general formula I are those in which X denotes oxygen, n denotes 0 or 1 and the substituent R is in the 3-position and denotes an alkyl group having 1 to 3 carbon atoms, an alkenyl group having 3 or 4 carbon atoms or an alkynyl group having 3 or 4 carbon atoms.
Some compounds of the general formula I are known. Thus, L. Stotter et al. in Heterocycles, Vol. 25 (1987) page 251 et seq. describe the methyl, ethyl and allyl ethers of quinuclidine substituted in the 3-position. The 4-methyl thioether of quinuclidine is known from Helvetica Chim Acta Vol. 57 (1974) page 2339 et seq. The authors do not disclose the use of these substances as medicaments. The 3-methylethyl ether and also the 3-methylethyl thioether are likewise known.
The compounds of the general formula I can be synthesized by a process analogous to the processes described by Stotter. Starting from the N-protected hydroxy- or mercaptoquinuclidines, the compounds according to the invention are obtained by deprotonation with strong bases and subsequent reaction with an alkylating reagent of the general formula Y-R, wherein R is as defined above and Y denotes a leaving group which can easily be split off--such as e.g. halogen, p-toluenesulphonate etc. The reaction is carried out in polar inert organic solvents, such as e.g. dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane etc. Whereas the deprotonation and conversion of the hydroxy compound into a metal salt is preferably carried out at room temperature or slightly elevated temperature, the subsequent alkylation is preferably carried out while cooling with ice. When the reaction has taken place, the protective group is split off and if appropriate the compounds are converted into their acid addition salts or quaternary compounds, the reaction conditions for this being known and preferred quaternary compounds being the methoiodides and methobromides. Preferred reagents for the deprotonation are sodium hydride, sodium amide and alkali metal alcoholates, such as e.g. potassium tert.-butylate.
The compounds according to the invention have--depending on the position of the side chain--one or two chiral centres. The racemates can be resolved by known methods, such as e.g. by chromatographic resolution processes or by crystallization, if appropriate using chiral or prochiral auxiliaries. Alternatively, the synthesis can be carried out starting from optically active starting compounds.
Wolfgang Eckert et al., Helvetica Chimica Acta, Vol. 57 (1974), 2339 describe a process for the preparation of thioethers of quinuclidines which is primarily suitable for synthesis of derivatives in the 4-position.
The preparation of the hydroxy- or mercaptoquinuclidines of the general formula I--wherein X denotes oxygen or sulphur and R denotes hydrogen, which are suitable as starting compounds, is carried out by analogous processes which are known per se, such as are described, for example, in K. B. Shaw, Canadian Journal of Chemistry, Vol. 43, 3112, (1965) and in DE-OS 19 38 546. The conversion into the corresponding thioethers--starting from the mercaptans--often has already taken place in weakly alkaline solution, c.f. A. Schoberl and A. Wagner in Houben-Weyl, Methoden der organischen Chemie (Methods of Organic Chemistry), Georg Thieme Verlag Stuttgart (1955), page 93 et seq., it being possible to dispense with the protective group required for the oxygen ethers.
The compounds of the general formula I have useful pharmacological properties. Thus, in bonding studies the compounds exhibit affinities for muscarine receptors and muscarine-agonistic GTP shifts (GTP=guanosine triphosphate) (Birdsall, N.I.M., E. C. Hulme and I. M. Stockton 1984 in T.I.P.S. Supplement, Proc. Internat. Symposium on Subtypes of Muscarinic Receptors, Ed. Hirschowitz, Hammer, Giacchetti, Klirns, Levine; Elsevier p. 4-8).
The receptor bonding studies were performed in accordance with the following literature reference [A. Closse, H. Bittiger, D. Langenegger and A. Wahner; Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's Arch. Pharmacol. 335, 372-377 (1987)].

A cholinomimetic action has been demonstrated in vitro and in vivo in pharmacological test models. Thus, for example, 3-(2-propnyloxy)-1-azabicyclo[2,2,2]octane fumarate in a dose of 3 mg/kg i.v. exhibits an arousal reaction typical of cholinomimetics in the EEG (electroencephalogram) of the conscious rabbit.
As muscarine agonists (cholinomimetics), the substances are suitable for therapy of diseases involving impaired function of the cholinergic system.
On the basis of pharmacological findings, the compounds are suitable e.g. for the treatment of the following mentioned diseases: Alzheimer's disease, senile dementia and cognitive disturbances, and the compounds can furthermore be employed for improving memory performance.
Quaternary compounds of the general formula I are particularly suitable for peripheral use, e.g. for glaucoma treatment.
The compounds of the general formula I can be used by themselves or in combination with other active compounds according to the invention, and if appropriate also in combination with other pharmacologically active compounds, e.g. other cerebroactivators. Examples of forms suitable for use are tablets, capsules, suppositories, solutions, elixirs, emulsions or dispersible powders. Corresponding tablets can be obtained, for example, by mixing the active compound or compounds with known auxiliaries, for example inert diluents, such as calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate or lactose, disintegrating agents, such as maize starch or alginic acid, binders, such as starch or gelatin, lubricants, such as magnesium stearate or talc, and/or agents for achieving the depot effect, such as carboxymethylcellulose, cellulose acetate phthalate or polyvinyl acetate. The tablets can also consist of several layers.
Coated tablets can correspondingly be prepared by coating cores prepared analogously to the tablets with the agents customarily used in coated tablet coatings, for example Kollidon or shellac, gum arabic, talc, titanium dioxide or sugar. To achieve a depot effect or to avoid incompatibilities, the core can also consist of several layers. The coated tablet shell can similarly consist of several layers to achieve a depot effect, it being possible for the auxiliaries mentioned above for the tablets to be used.
Elixirs of the active compounds or active compound combinations according to the invention can additionally also contain a sweetener, such as saccharin, cyclamate, glycerol or sugar, and a flavour-improving agent, e.g. flavour substances, such as vanillin or orange extract. They can moreover contain suspending auxiliaries or thickeners, such as sodium carboxymethylcellulose, wetting agents, for example condensation products of fatty alcohols with ethylene oxide, or preservatives, such as p-hydroxybenzoates.
Injection solutions are prepared in the customary manner, e.g. by addition of preservatives, such as p-hydroxybenzoate, or stabilizers, such as alkali metal salts of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid, and bottled in injection bottles or ampoules.
The capsules containing one or more active compounds or active compound combinations can be prepared, for example, by mixing the active compounds with inert excipients, such as lactose or sorbitol, and encapsulating the mixture in gelatin capsules.
Suitable suppositories can be prepared, for example, by mixing with suitable excipients, such as neutral fats or polyethylene glycol or derivatives thereof.
The therapeutically active individual dose is in the range between 1 and 100 mg.
The following examples illustrate the present invention, but without limiting it in its scope:

3-(2-Propynyloxy)-1-azabicyclo[2,2,2]octane ##STR2##
14.1 g (0.1 mol) 3-hydroxy-1-azabicyclo[2,2,2]octane-borane complex are converted into the sodium salt with 4 g sodium hydride dispersion (60) in oil) in 140 ml dimethylformamide at room temperature under nitrogen. When the evolution of hydrogen has ended, a solution of 14.28 g (0.12 mol) propargyl bromide in 10 ml toluene is added to the reaction mixture, while cooling with ice, and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for three hours and, after addition of 5 ml ethanol, concentrated in vacuo on a rotary evaporator. The residue is added to a mixture of 10% sodium chloride solution and ether. The organic phase is dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate and evaporated. The dark brown oil which remains is taken up in 75 ml tetrahydrofuran and 15 ml acetone. 30 mL 4 N hydrochloric acid are added dropwise to the solution formed, while cooling with ice (evolution of gas). The mixture is allowed to after-react at room temperature for a further hour and the organic solvent is distilled off. The residue is diluted with a little water and the mixture is extracted by shaking successively with petroleum ether (40.degree.-60.degree.) and ether. The aqueous phase is rendered alkaline with 40% potassium carbonate solution and extracted with ether. The ether solution is dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate and concentrated. 6.9 g (41.8% of theory) 3-(2-propynyloxy)-1-azabicyclo[2,2,2]octane base are obtained and are converted into the fumarate (m.p. 138.degree.-140.degree. C.; from ethanol/ether) with one equivalent of fumaric acid.
