Radicicol derivatives, their preparation and their anti-tumor activity

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a series of new derivatives of the compound "radicicol", which is also known by the name "monorden", and provides methods and compositions using them as well as processes for their preparation.
Radicicol (Merck Index, 11th Edition, monograph No 6163, "Monorden") was first isolated in 1953, and its structure was elucidated in 1964 by Mirrington et al. [Tetrahedron Letters, 7, 365 (1964)], who also disclosed the diacetyl derivative of radicicol. At that time, it was known to have an activity which can be broadly described as "antibiotic" (as it is described in the Merck Index), although, in fact, its activity is strictly anti-fungal. It is also known to have a relatively strong tranquilizing activity without having any effect on the central nervous system. Subsequently, it was disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,428,526 that radicicol has a strong inhibitory effect in vitro on the growth of tumor cells of the mouse mastocytoma P-815. However, to date, no commercial use for the compound has been found.
We have found that radicicol itself can exert little anti-tumor activity against various types of tumor in vivo, and have also surprisingly found that certain acylated derivatives of radicicol demonstrate a superior anti-tumor activity. It is believed that the relative inactivity in vivo compared to the good activity in vitro may be a result of an instability of the compound to a component of the mammalian metabolism. We have, however, found that acylated derivatives of radicicol have greater stability in the mammalian body and can, therefore, be of practical use in the treatment of tumors.
BRIEF SUMMARY OF INVENTION
It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide as new compositions of matter a series of novel acylated radicicol derivatives.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide such compounds which may demonstrate anti-tumor activity.
Other objects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent as the description proceeds.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF INVENTION
In the compounds of the present invention, where R.sup.3 represents an alkyl group, this has from 1 to 50 carbon atoms, and may be a straight or branched chain group. Examples of such groups include the methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, t-butyl, pentyl, 3-methylbutyl, 2,2-dimethylpropyl, 1,1-dimethylpropyl, hexyl, 1-methylpentyl, 4-methylpentyl, heptyl, 1-methylhexyl, 2-methylhexyl, 5-methylhexyl, 3-ethylpentyl, octyl, 2-methylheptyl, 6-methylheptyl, 2-ethylhexyl, 2-ethyl-3-methylpentyl, 3-ethyl-2-methylpentyl, nonyl, 2-methyloctyl, 7-methyloctyl, 4-ethylheptyl, 3-ethyl-2-methylhexyl, 2-ethyl-1-methylhexyl, decyl, 2-methylnonyl, 8-methylnonyl, 5-ethyloctyl, 3-ethyl-2-methylheptyl, 3,3-diethylhexyl, undecyl, 2-methyldecyl, 9-methyldecyl, 4-ethylnonyl, 3,5-dimethylnonyl, 3-propyloctyl, 5-ethyl-4-methyloctyl, 1-pentylhexyl, dodecyl, 1-methylundecyl, 10-methylundecyl, 3-ethyldecyl, 5-propylnonyl, 3,5-diethyloctyl, tridecyl, 11-methyldodecyl, 7-ethylundecyl, 4-propyldecyl, 5-ethyl-3-methyldecyl, 3-pentyloctyl, tetradecyl, 12-methyltridecyl, 8-ethyldodecyl, 6-propylundecyl, 4-butyldecyl, 2-pentylnonyl, pentadecyl, 13-methyltetradecyl, 10-ethyltridecyl, 7-propyldodecyl, 5-ethyl-3-methyldodecyl, 4-pentyldecyl, 1-hexylnonyl, hexadecyl, 14-methylpentadecyl, 6-ethyltetradecyl, 4-propyltridecyl, 2-butyldodecyl, heptadecyl, 15-methylhexadecyl, 7-ethylpentadecyl, 3-propyltetradecyl, 5-pentyldodecyl, octadecyl, 16-methylheptadecyl, 5-propylpentadecyl, nonadecyl, 17-methyloctadecyl, 4-ethylheptadecyl, icosyl, 18-methylnonadecyl, 3-ethyloctadecyl, henicosyl, docosinyl, tricosinyl, tetracosinyl and pentacosinyl groups. Certain of the acylated radicicol derivatives of the present invention may not be easily soluble in the most common physiologically acceptable solvents, and in such cases (which most notably include the derivatives of the longer chain aliphatic acids), a special solvent system may be employed to solubilize the compound, as is well known in the art and can readily be determined by the man skilled in the art. However, to avoid the need for this, shorter chain alkyl groups among those represented by R.sup.3 are preferred, for example those alkyl groups having from 1 to 25 carbon atoms, more preferably from 8 to 20 carbon atoms, and most preferably from 12 to 17 carbon atoms (i.e. the alkanoyl group represented by R.sup.1 or R.sup.2 would have from 2 to 26, more preferably from 9 to 21 and most preferably from 13 to 18, carbon atoms).
Where R.sup.3 represents a substituted alkyl group, this may be any of those groups listed above, which is substituted by at least one of substituents (a), defined above and exemplified below.
In relation to these, and all substituted groups where a specific number of substituents is not given, there is no particular restriction on the number of such groups, except as may be required by the number of substitutable atoms, or possibly by steric constraints. In general, however, we prefer (provided there are sufficient subtitutable atoms) from 1 to 5 substituents, more preferably from 1 to 3 substituents.
Among substituents (a), are included aryl groups, which may be as defined above and exemplified below. Such substituted groups are aralkyl groups, and these preferably have from 1 to 4 carbon atoms in the alkyl part and from 1 to 10 carbon atoms in the aryl part. The aryl part may be substituted or unsubstituted. Examples of such aralkyl groups include the benzyl, phenethyl, 1-phenylethyl, 1-, 2- and 3-phenylpropyl, 1-, 2-, 3-, 4- and 5-phenylpentyl and the 1- and 2-naphthylmethyl groups.
Where R.sup.3 represents an alkoxy group, this has from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, and may be a straight or branched chain group.

Where R.sup.3 represents a substituted alkoxy group, this may be any of those groups listed above, which is substituted by at least one of substituents (a), defined above and exemplified below.
Where R.sup.3 represents an alkenyl group, this has from 2 to 30 carbon atoms, and may be a straight or branched chain group. It may have 1 or more, preferably from 1 to 4, double bonds. Examples of such groups include the vinyl, allyl, 1-propenyl, isopropenyl, 2-methyl-1-propenyl, 1-butenyl, 2-butenyl, 3-butenyl, 1-pentenyl, 2-pentenyl, 3-pentenyl, 4-pentenyl, 1-hexenyl, 2-hexenyl, 3-hexenyl, 4-hexenyl, 5-hexenyl, 1-heptenyl, 2-heptenyl, 3-heptenyl, 1-octenyl, 8-nonenyl, 1-nonenyl, 1-decenyl, 9-decenyl, 8-tridecenyl, cis-8-pentadecenyl, trans-8-pentadecenyl, 8-heptadecenyl, 8-heptadecenyl, 8,11-heptadecadienyl, 8,11,14-heptadecatrienyl, 4,7,11,14-nonadecatetraenyl and 2,6-dimethyl-8-(2,6,6-trimethyl-1-cyclohexen-1-yl)-1,3,5,7-nonatetraen-1-yl groups.
Where R.sup.3 represents a substituted alkenyl group, this may be any of those groups listed above, which is substituted by at least one of substituents (a), defined above and exemplified below.
Where R.sup.3 represents an alkynyl group, this has from 2 to 10 carbon atoms, and may be a straight or branched chain group. Examples of such groups include the ethynyl, 1-propynyl, propargyl, 1-heptynyl, 1-octynyl and 1-decynyl groups.
Where R.sup.3 represents a substituted alkynyl group, this may be any of those groups listed above, which is substituted by at least one of substituents (a), defined above and exemplified below.
Where R.sup.3 represents an aryl group, this has from 6 to 14 ring atoms, in a single or multiple rings, and examples include the phenyl, 1-naphthyl, 2-naphthyl, fluorenyl, 1-anthryl and 1-phenanthryl groups. Such groups may be substituted or unsubstituted, and, if substituted, the substituents are selected from the group consisting of substituents (a), defined above and exemplified below.
Where R.sup.3 represents an aryloxy group, this has from 6 to 14 ring atoms, in a single or multiple rings, and examples include the phenoxy, 1-naphthyloxy, 2-naphthyloxy, fluorenyloxy, 1-anthryloxy and 1-phenanthryloxy groups. Such groups may be substituted or unsubstituted, and, if substituted, the substituents are selected from the group consisting of substituents (a), defined above and exemplified below.
Where R.sup.3 represents a heterocyclic group, this has 5 or 6 ring atoms. Of these atoms, from 1 to 3 are hetero-atoms selected from the group consisting of nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur hetero-atoms. Where there are 3 hetero-atoms, we prefer that at least one (more preferably 2) should be a nitrogen atom and one or two should be nitrogen, oxygen or sulfur atoms (and, where there are two, they may be the same or different).

The compounds of the present invention may be prepared by a variety of methods well known for preparing acylated compounds from the corresponding hydroxy compound. For example, compounds of formula (I) may be prepared by reacting a compound of formula (II): ##STR2## [in which either both of R.sup.8 and R.sup.9 represents a hydrogen atom or one of R.sup.8 and R.sup.9 represents a hydrogen atom and the other represents a hydroxy-protecting group, which may be one of the groups defined for R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 (other than a hydrogen atom) or any of the hydroxy-protecting groups exemplified above] with a compound of formula (III):
R.sup.3 --COOH (III)
(in which R.sup.3 is as defined above) or with a reactive derivative thereof, and, if required, removing any protecting group, to give said compound of formula (I).
Radicicol itself is the compound of formula (II) in which both R.sup.8 and R.sup.9 represent hydrogen atoms.
The reaction of the compound of formula (II) with a carboxylic acid of formula (III):
R.sup.3 COOH (III)
(in which R.sup.3 is as defined above) or with a reactive derivative thereof can be conducted using any acylation reaction known this field.
If a carboxylic acid of formula (III) is used in the form of the free acid, the reaction is preferably effected in the presence of a suitable condensation agent, for example 1,1'-oxalyldiimidazole. 2,2'-dipyridyl disulfide, N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC), N,N'-disuccinimidyl carbonate, N,N'-bis(2-oxo-3-oxazolidinyl)phosphinic chloride, N,N'-carbodiimidazole, N,N'-disuccinimidyl oxalate (DSO), N,N'-diphthalimide oxalate (DPO), N,N'-bis(norbornenylsuccinimidyl)oxalate (BBTO), 1,1'-bis(benzotriazolyl)oxalate (BBTO), 1,1'-bis(6-chlorobenzotriazolyl)oxalate (BCTO) or 1,1'-bis(6-trifluoromethylbenzotriazolyl)oxalate (BTBO).
When a condensation agent is employed, the reaction is preferably conducted in the presence of an inert solvent. There is no particular restriction on the nature of the solvent to be employed, provided that it has no adverse effect on the reaction or on the reagents involved and that it can dissolve the reagents, at least to some extent. Examples of suitable solvents include: aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as hexane, heptane, ligroin and petroleum ether; aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene and xylene; halogenated hydrocarbons, especially aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, dichloroethane, chlorobenzene and the dichlorobenzenes; esters, such as ethyl formate, ethyl acetate, propyl acetate, butyl acetate and diethyl carbonate; ethers, such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, dimethoxyethane and diethyleneglycol dimethyl ether; ketones, such as acetone, methyl ethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone, isophorone and cyclohexanone; nitro compounds, which may be nitroalkanes or nitroaranes, such as nitroethane and nitrobenzene; nitriles, such as acetonitrile and isobutyronitrile; amides, which may be fatty acid amides, such as formamide, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide and hexamethylphosphorotriamide; and sulfoxides, such as dimethyl sulfoxide and sulfolane.
The reaction can take place over a wide range of temperatures, and the precise reaction temperature is not critical to the invention. In general, we find it convenient to carry out the reaction at a temperature of from -10.degree. C. to 130.degree. C.
If R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are the same in the compound of formula (I), the compound of the present invention can be obtained by reaction of a compound of formula (II) as defined above with 2 and more equivalents of a carboxylic acid and a condensation agent or of a reactive derivative of the carboxylic acid. If a compound in which one of R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 represents a hydrogen atom is desired, it can be obtained by using less than 2 equivalents, preferably from 1 to 1.5 equivalents, of the carboxylic acid and a condensation agent or of a reactive derivative of the carboxylic acid.
If R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 both represent acyl groups which are different from each other in the compound of formula (I), the desired compound can be obtained by reaction of a compound of formula (II) in which one of R.sup.8 and R.sup.9 represents a hydrogen atom with 1 or more equivalents of the carboxylic acid and a condensation agent or of a reactive derivative of the carboxylic acid.
Examples of reactive derivatives of the carboxylic acid of formula (III) include: acid halides, such as the acid chloride and the acid bromide; and acid anhydrides.
When an acid halide is employed, the reaction is preferably conducted in an inert organic solvent in the presence of an acid binding agent. There is no particular restriction on the nature of the solvent to be employed, provided that it has no adverse effect on the reaction or on the reagents involved and that it can dissolve the reagents, at least to some extent. Examples of suitable solvents include: aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene and xylene; halogenated hydrocarbons, especially halogenated aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as chloroform, methylene chloride and trichloroethane; ethers, such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran and dioxane; aliphatic dialkylamides, which may be fatty acid amides, such as dimethylformamide and dimethylacetamide; nitriles, such as acetonitrile; ketones, such as acetone; dimethyl sulfoxide; and pyridine. The acid binding agent may be any such compound which binds to an acid and does not interfere with the reaction, and examples include: alkali metal hydroxides, such as sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide; alkali metal carbonates, such as sodium carbonate and potassium carbonate; and organic bases, such as triethylamine, pyridine, 4-dimethylaminopyridine and 1-methylimidazole.
The reaction can take place over a wide range of temperatures, and the precise reaction temperature is not critical to the invention. In general, we find it convenient to carry out the reaction at a temperature of from -10.degree. C. to 130.degree. C.
When an acid anhydride is employed, the reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of an inert organic solvent, or in the absence of an inert organic solvent by using an excess of the acid anhydride. There is no particular restriction on the nature of the solvent which may be employed, provided that it has no adverse effect on the reaction or on the reagents involved and that it can dissolve the reagents, at least to some extent. Examples of suitable solvents include: aromatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene and xylene; and ethers, such as dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, diethyleneglycol dimethyl ether.
The reaction can take place over a wide range of temperatures, and the precise reaction temperature is not critical to the invention. In general, we find it convenient to carry out the reaction at a temperature of from room temperature to 160.degree. C.
The desired compound thus obtained can be collected, separated and purified by any suitable techniques. For example, one suitable recovery procedure comprises: pouring the reaction solution into water; extracted the resulting mixture with a water-immiscible solvent, such as benzene, ether or ethyl acetate; and finally removing the solvent e.g. by distillation to obtain the desired compound. The desired compound may, if necessary, be further purified by various methods, including: adsorption chromalography or ion exchange chromalography using various carriers, such as active carbon or silica gel; by gel filtration by using a Sephadex (trade mark) column; or by recrystallization from an ether (e.g. diethyl ether), ethyl acetate or chloroform.
When the compound of formula (II) contains a protecting group, the desired compound of formula (I) can be obtained by its removal, if necessary.
The removal of protecting group is required, the reaction employed will, as is well known in the art, vary depending upon the nature of the protecting group, and may be carried out using conventional procedures known in the technology of this field, for example as follows.
If a silyl group is employed as the hydroxy-protecting group, it can generally be removed by treatment with a compound capable of forming fluorine anions, such as tetrabutylammonium fluoride. The reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of a solvent. There is no particular restriction on the nature of the solvent to be employed, provided that it has no adverse effect on the reaction or on the reagents involved and that it can dissolve the reagents, at least to some extent. Examples of suitable solvents include ethers, such as tetrahydrofuran and dioxane.
The reaction can take place over a wide range of temperatures, and the precise reaction temperature is not critical to the invention. In general, we find it convenient to carry out the reaction at a temperature of about room temperature. The time required for the reaction may also vary widely, depending on many factors, notably the reaction temperature and the nature of the reagents. However, provided that the reaction is effected under the preferred conditions outlined above, a period of from 10 to 18 hours will usually suffice.
If the hydroxy group is protected by an aralkyl or aralkyloxycarbonyl group, it can be removed by contact with a reducing agent. The removal is preferably performed by means of a catalytic reduction, which may take place at room temperature, by using a catalyst, such as palladium-carbon, platinum or Raney nickel. The reaction is normally and preferably carried out in the presence of a solvent. There is no particular restriction on the nature of the solvent to be employed, provided that it has no adverse effect on the reaction or on the reagents involved and that it can dissolve the reagents, at least to some extent. Examples of suitable solvents include: alcohols, such as methanol and ethanol; ethers, such as tetrahydrofuran and dioxane; aliphatic acids, such as acetic acid; and a mixtures of any one or more of these organic solvents with water.
The reaction can take place over a wide range of temperatures, and the precise reaction temperature is not critical to the invention. In general, we find it convenient to carry out the reaction at a temperature of from 0.degree. C. to room temperature. The time required for the reaction may also vary widely, depending on many factors, notably the reaction temperature and the nature of the reagents. However, provided that the reaction is effected under the preferred conditions outlined above, a period of from 5 minutes to 12 hours will usually suffice.
Such groups can be also removed by treating the compound with lithium or sodium in a liquid ammonia or in an alcohol, such as methanol or ethanol at a relatively low temperature, for example from -78.degree. C. to -20.degree. C.
Such groups can also be removed by using aluminum chloride-sodium iodide or an alkylsilyl halide, such as trimethylsilyl iodide. The reaction is normally and preferably carried out in the presence of a solvent. There is no particular restriction on the nature of the solvent to be employed, provided that it has no adverse effect on the reaction or on the reagents involved and that it can dissolve the reagents, at least to some extent. Examples of suitable solvents include: nitriles, such as acetonitile; halogenated hydrocarbons, especially halogenated aliphatic hydrocarbons, such as methylene chloride and chloroform; and mixtures of any two or more of these solvents.
The reaction can take place over a wide range of temperatures, and the precise reaction temperature is not critical to the invention. In general, we find it convenient to carry out the reaction at a temperature of from 0.degree. C. to 50.degree. C.
When the reaction substrate contains a sulfur atom, aluminum chloride-sodium iodide is preferably employed.
If the hydroxy-protecting group is an aliphatic acyl, aromatic acyl or alkoxycarbonyl group, it can be removed by treatment with a base in the presence of a solvent. The base employed is not particularly limited provided that it does not affect other parts of the compounds. The reaction is preferably performed using one of the following bases: metal alcoholates, such as sodium methoxide; aqueous ammonia; alkali metal carbonates, such as sodium carbonate and potassium carbonate; alkali metal hydroxides, such as sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide; and concentrated ammonia-methanol. There is no particular restriction on the nature of the solvent to be employed, provided that it has no adverse effect on the reaction or on the reagents involved and that it can dissolve the reagents, at least to some extent, and any solvent commonly used for hydrolysis reactions can equally be used here. Examples of suitable solvents include: alcohols, such as methanol, ethanol and propanol; ethers, such as tetrahydrofuran and dioxane; and mixtures of any one or more of these organic solvents with water.
The reaction can take place over a wide range of temperatures, and the precise reaction temperature is not critical to the invention. In general, we find it convenient to carry out the reaction at a temperature of from 0.degree. C. to 150.degree. C. in order to inhibit any side reaction.

The compounds may be administered by any convenient route, for example by parenteral administration methods, such as intravenous injection, subcutaneous injection, intramuscular injection or by suppositories; or oral administration by using, for example, capsules, powders or granules.
The dosage to an adult human may vary depending on the nature of the disease, the route of administration and the administration frequency and period. However, a daily dosage of from 1 to 100 mg in a single dose or in divided doses may be given.
The radicicol derivative of the present invention may be administered in combination with other antitumor agents, for example, nitrosourea agents such as ACNU or BCNU, cisplatin, 5-FU, Daunomycin, adriamycin, mitomycin C and etoposide. In addition, preparations of the radicicol derivative can be provided for administration according to any conventional method.

BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY
The test animals used were female mice, 8 weeks old, of the BDF.sub.1 strain, weighing 20-25 g. The mice were purchased from Charles River Japan Inc., Kanagawa, Japan. The mice were divided into experimental groups, each group containing 6 mice, and all mice within each group were treated identically. Each mouse was inoculated subcutaneouly with 1.times.10.sup.6 viable cells (the number of cells was measured by a dye exclusion method under microscopy) of the mouse fibrosarcoma M5076.
The test compounds (80 mg) listed in the following Table, except radicicol, were dissolved in 0.2 ml of N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA) and to the solution was added 0.2 ml of 40.degree. C.-warmed HCO60 (polyoxyethylene hydrogenated caster oil 60). Immediately thereafter 3.6 ml of 40.degree. C.-warmed physiological saline was added to form a colloidal solution or a suspension. The final concentration of DMA and HCO60 was 5% v/v, each. Radicicol was dissolved in 0.25 mg/ml of DMA and the solution was dispersed slowly into 3.75 ml of 10% Emulphor(trade mark)-physiological saline stirred well with a stirring rod. The final concentration of DMA was 6.25%. The solution was administered intravenously (in the case of a suspension it was administered intraperitoneally) on the first, fifth and ninth days following inoculation of the fibrosarcoma cells. The period for which the mice survived and the % inhibition of tumor growth were determined. A control group was treated identically, except that no active compound was administered.
The anti-tumor effect is shown in the following Table as the increase in life span [ILS (%)] and the growth inhibition [GI (%)], calculated from the following equations [R. I. Geran et al., Cancer Chemother. Rept., 3 (1972)]:
ILS(%)+(Dt/Dc-1).times.100
where
Dt=median survival time (days) of mice in the treated group; and
Dc=median survival time (days) of mice in the control group.
In this experiment, Dc was 40-47 days.
GI(%)=(1-TDt/TDC).times.100
where
TDt=average value of tumor sizes on the fourteenth day in the treated group; and
TDc=average value of tumor sizes on the fourteenth day in the control group tumor size=(tumor length+tumor width )/2.
The compounds of the invention are identified in the following Table by the numbers assigned to them in the foregoing list.

1.6 g of radicicol was dissolved in 37 ml of dry benzene, and the solution was placed on an ice bath. While the solution was still on the ice bath, 2.2 ml of pyridine and a catalytic amount of dimethylaminopyridine were added to it, after which 20 ml of benzene containing 1.32 g of palmitoyl chloride was added dropwise. The reaction solution was then stirred for 1 hour on an ice bath, and ice water was added; it was then extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with an aqueous solution of sodium bicarbonate, with water and with a saturated solution of sodium chloride, in that order, after which it was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The magnesium sulfate was removed by filtration, and the solvent was then removed from the filtrate by distillation under reduced pressure. 2.70 g of an oily residue were thus obtained, and this was subjected to silica gel column chromatography using a 1:1 by volume mixture of hexane and ethyl acetate as the eluent, to obtain a crystalline substance having an Rf value of 0.64 (developing solvent, hexane:ethyl acetate=3:1 by volume). Recrystallization of this from hexane afforded 1.47 g of the title compound.
