Spiro piperidines and homologs which promote release of growth hormone

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Growth hormone, which is secreted from the pituitary, stimulates growth of all tissues of the body that are capable of growing. In addition, growth hormone is known to have the following basic effects on the metabolic processes of the body:
1. Increased rate of protein synthesis in all cells of the body;
2. Decreased rate of carbohydrate utilization in cells of the body;
3. Increased mobilization of free fatty acids and use of fatty acids for energy.
A deficiency in growth hormone secretion can result in various medical disorders, such as dwarfism.
Various ways are known to release growth hormone. For example, chemicals such as arginine, L-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA), glucagon, vasopressin, and insulin induced hypoglycemia, as well as activities such as sleep and exercise, indirectly cause growth hormone to be released from the pituitary by acting in some fashion on the hypothalamus perhaps either to decrease somatostatin secretion or to increase the secretion of the known secretagogue growth hormone releasing factor (GRF) or an unknown endogenous growth hormone-releasing hormone or all of these.
In cases where increased levels of growth hormone were desired, the problem was generally solved by providing exogenous growth hormone or by administering GRF or a peptidal compound which stimulated growth hormone production and/or release. In either case the peptidyl nature of the compound necessitated that it be administered by injection. Initially the source of growth hormone was the extraction of the pituitary glands of cadavers. This resulted in a very expensive product and carded with it the risk that a disease associated with the source of the pituitary gland could be transmitted to the recipient of the growth hormone. Recently, recombinant growth hormone has become available which, while no longer carrying any risk of disease transmission, is still a very expensive product which must be given by injection or by a nasal spray.
Other compounds have been developed which stimulate the release of endogenous growth hormone such as analogous peptidyl compounds related to GRF or the peptides of U.S. Pat. No. 4,411,890. These peptides, while considerably smaller than growth hormones are still susceptible to various proteases. As with most peptides, their potential for oral bioavailability is low. The instant compounds are non-peptide analogs for promoting the release of growth hormone which are stable in a variety of physiological environments and which may be administered parenterally, nasally or by the oral route.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The instant invention covers certain spiro compounds which have the ability to stimulate the release of natural or endogenous growth hormone. The compounds thus have the ability to be used to treat conditions which require the stimulation of growth hormone production or secretion such as in humans with a deficiency of natural growth hormone or in animals used for food production where the stimulation of growth hormone will result in a larger, more productive animal. Thus, it is an object of the instant invention to describe the spiro compounds. It is a further object of this invention to describe procedures for the preparation of such compounds. A still further object is to describe the use of such compounds to increase the secretion of growth hormone in humans and animals. A still further object of this invention is to describe compositions containing the spiro compounds for the use of treating humans and animals so as to increase the level of growth hormone secretions. Further objects will become apparent from a reading of the following description.

The compounds of the instant invention all have at least one asymmetric center as noted by the asterisk in the structural Formulas I and II above. Additional asymmetric centers may be present on the molecule depending upon the nature of the various substituents on the molecule. Each such asymmetric center will produce two optical isomers and it is intended that all such optical isomers, as separated, pure or partially purified optical isomers, racemic mixtures or diastereomeric mixtures thereof, be included within the ambit of the instant invention. In the case of the asymmetric center represented by the asterisk in Formula I and II, it has been found that the absolute stereochemistry of the more active and thus more preferred isomers are as shown in Formula Ia. With the R.sub.2 substituent as hydrogen, the special configuration of the asymmetric center corresponds to that in a D-amino acid. In most cases this is also designated an R-configuration although this will vary according to the values of R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 used in making R- or S stereochemical assignments. ##STR12##
The instant compounds are generally isolated in the form of their pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts, such as the salts derived from using inorganic and organic acids. Examples of such acids are hydrochloric, nitric, sulfuric, phosphoric, formic, acetic, trifluoroacetic, propionic, maleic, succinic, malonic, methane sulfonic and the like. In addition, certain compounds containing an acidic function such as a carboxy can be isolated in the form of their inorganic salt in which the counterion can be selected from sodium, potassium, lithium, calcium, magnesium and the like, as well as from organic bases.
The preparation of compounds I and II of the present invention can be carded out in sequential or convergent synthetic routes. Syntheses detailing the preparation of the compounds of Formula I and II in a sequential manner are presented in the following reaction schemes.
The protected amino acid derivatives 1 are, in many cases, commercially available where the protecting group L is, for example, BOC or CBZ groups. Other protected amino acid derivatives I can be prepared by literature methods. Many of the spiro piperidines and spiroazepines (n=2) of formula 2 and 2a are known in the literature and can be derivatized on the phenyl or heteroaryl by standard means, such as halogenation, nitration, sulfonylation, etc. Alternatively, various phenyl or heteroaryl substituted spiro piperidines and spiroazepines (n=2) can be prepared following literature methods using derivatized phenyl and heteraryl intermediates. In Schemes subsequent to Scheme I, the synthetic methods are illustrated only with spiropiperidines although it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the illustrated transformations can also be carried out in the higher homolog series to afford compounds of Formulas I and II with n=2.
Intermediates of formulas 3 and 3a can be synthesized as described in Scheme 1. Coupling of spiro piperidines of formula 2 and 2a to protected amino acids of formula 1, wherein L is a suitable protecting group, is conveniently carried out in an inert solvent such as dichloromethane by a coupling reagent such as DCC or EDC in the presence of HOBT. Alteratively, the coupling can also be effected with a coupling reagent such as BOP in an inert solvent such as dichloromethane. Separation of unwanted side products, and purification of intermediates is achieved by chromatography on silica gel, employing flash chromatography (W. C. Still, M. Kahn, and A. Mitra J. Org. Chem. 1978, 43, 2923), MPLC or preparative TLC. ##STR13##
Conversion of 3 and 3a to intermediates 4 and 4a can be carded out as illustrated in Scheme 2. Removal of benzyloxycarbonyl groups can be achieved by a number of methods known in the art; for example, catalytic hydrogenation with hydrogen in the presence of palladium or platinum catalyst in a protic solvent such as methanol. In cases where catalytic hydrogenation is contraindicated by the presence of other potentially reactive functionality, removal of benzyloxy carbonyl groups can also be achieved by treatment with a solution of hydrogen bromide in acetic acid. Removal of BOC protecting groups is carded out in a solvent such as methylene chloride or methanol, with a strong acid, such as hydrochloric acid or trifluoroacetic acid. Conditions required to remove other protecting groups which may be present can be found in Greene, T; Wuts, P.G.M. Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, N.Y. 1991. ##STR14##
Intermediates of formula 5 and 5b, wherein A is a methylene or a substituted methylene group, can be prepared as shown in Scheme 3 by coupling of intermediates of formula 4 and 4a to amino acids of formula 6, once again, in an inert solvent such as dichloromethane by a coupling reagent such as EDC or DCC in the presence of HOBT. These amino acids 6 are known amino acids or amino acids readily synthesized by methods known to those skilled in the art. Alteratively, the coupling can also be effected with a coupling reagent such as BOP in an inert solvent such as dichloromethane. Also if R.sub.4 or R.sub.5 is a hydrogen then amino acids of formula 7 are employed in the coupling reaction, wherein L is a protecting group as defined above, to give 5a and 5c. Deprotection of 5a and 5c (L=protecting group) can be carded out under conditions known in the art. ##STR15##
Compounds of formula I and II wherein R.sub.4 and/or R.sub.5 is a hydrogen can be further elaborated to new compounds I and II (preferred side chain R.sub.7 =CH.sub.2 --CH(OH)--CH.sub.2 X, wherein X.dbd.H or OH) which are substituted on the amino group as depicted in Scheme 4. Reductive amination of I and II with an aldehyde is carded out under conditions known in the art; for example, by catalytic hydrogenation with hydrogen in the presence of platinum, palladium, or nickel catalysts or with chemical reducing agents such as sodium cyanoborohydride in an inert solvent such as methanol or ethanol. Alternatively, a similar transformation can be accomplished via an epoxide opening reaction. ##STR16##
Compounds of formula I and II, wherein A is N(R.sub.2)--(CH.sub.2).sub.z --C(R.sub.7)(RT.sub.7a)--(CH.sub.2).sub.y, can be prepared as shown in Scheme 5by reacting 4 or 4a with reagents 8, Wherein X is a good leaving group such as Cl, Br, I, imidazole. Alteratively, 4 and 4a can be reacted with an isocyanate of formula 9 in an inert solvent such as 1,2-dichloroethane. If R.sub.4 or R.sub.5 is hydrogen in the final product, the reagents 8 and 9 will bear a removable protecting group L in place of R.sub.4 or R.sub.5. ##STR17##
The compounds I and II of the present invention can also be prepared in a convergent manner as described in reaction schemes 6, 7 and 8.
The protected amino acid derivatives 10 are, in many cases, commercially available where M=methyl, ethyl, or benzyl esters. Other ester protected amino acids can be prepared by classical methods familiar to those skilled in the art. Some of these methods include the reaction of a protected amino acid with a diazoalkane and removal of a protecting group L, the reaction of an amino acid with an appropriate alcohol in the presence a strong acid like hydrochloric acid or p-toluenesulfonic acid. Synthetic routes for the preparation of new amino acids are described in Schemes 14, 15, and 16.
Intermediates of formula 11 and 11a, can be prepared as shown in Scheme 6 by coupling of amines 10 to amino acids 6 and/or 7, wherein L is a protecting group, as described above in Scheme 3. When a urea linkage is present in 11 or 11a, it can be introduced as illustrated in Scheme 5. ##STR18##
Conversion of the ester 11 or 11a to intermediate acids 12 or 12a can be achieved by a number of methods known in the art as described in Scheme 7; for example, methyl and ethyl esters can be hydrolyzed with lithium hydroxide in a protic solvent like aqueous methanol. In addition, removal of benzyl group can be accomplished by a number of reductive methods including hydrogenation in the presence of platinum or palladium catalyst in a protic solvent such as methanol. An allyl ester can be cleaved with tetrakis-triphenylphosphine palladium catalyst in the presence of 2-ethylhexanoic acid in a variety of solvents including ethyl acetate and dichloromethane (see J. Org. Chem. 1982, 42,587). ##STR19##
Acid 12 or 12a can then be elaborated to 5 & 5a and 5b & 5c as described in Scheme 8. Coupling of spiro piperidines of formula 2 and 2a to acids of formula 12 or 12a, wherein L is a suitable protecting group, is conveniently carded out in an inert solvent such as dichloromethane by a coupling reagent such as dicylohexyl carbodiimide (DCC) or EDC in the presence of 1-hydroxybenztriazole (HOBT). Alteratively, the coupling can also be effected with a coupling reagent such as benzotriazol-1-yloxytris(dimethylamino) phosphonium hexafluorophosphate ("BOP") in an inert solvent such as dichloromethane. Transformation of 5a & 5c to I and II is achieved by removal of the protecting group L. When R.sub.4 and/or R.sub.5 is H, substituted alkyl groups may be optionally added to the nitrogen atom as described in Scheme 4. ##STR20##
The preparation of oxygenated spiroindanyl piperidine intermediates is illustrated in scheme 9 in which R.sub.3a and R.sub.3b are both hydrogens. Hydroboration of the protected spiroindene 13 followed by oxidative workup with pyridinium chlorochromate provides the spiroindanone 14. ##STR21##
Conversion of spiroindanes into benzolactam intermediates is illustrated in Scheme 10. The treatment of the spiroindanone with hydrazoic acid in an inert solvent such as chloroform (Schmidt reaction) is one of the many suitable literature methods for this transformation. A mixture of two benzolactams is formed in this example. The isomers are easily separated by chromatography on silica gel. These intermediates can then be deprotected and incorporated into growth hormone secretagogues as depicted in Schemes 1 and 8 utilizing generic intermediate 2. ##STR22##
Alkylation of 15 and 16 with an alkyl halide in a solvent such as DMF in the presence of NaH afford 17 and 18 (R.sub.2 =C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl). ##STR23##
When L is an appropiate protecting group such as a benzyl group the amides can be reduced with lithium aluminum hydride to provide the amines 19 and 21. These amines where R.sub.2 =H can then be alkylated, arylated, acylated, or reacted with substituted sulfonyl halides or isocyanates employing conditions known to those skilled in the art to afford compounds 20 and 22. Removal of the protecting group (L) by hydrogenolysis using a palladium catalyst provides intermediates that can be incorporated into the secretagogues of this invention using the chemistry illustrated in Schemes 1 and 8 shown above which utilize generic intermediate 2. ##STR24##
Alternatively, the 1,2,3,4-tetrahydrospiro[isoquinolin-4,4'-piperidine]ring system can be prepared as outlined in Scheme 12. The ozonolysis of the protected spiroindene followed by dimethyl sulfide treatment gives a hemiacetal intermediate 24 which under reductive amination and acylation conditions provides amine 25. The amino protecting group (L) has been defined above. ##STR25##
The ring analogs of formula 26, where X, Y is H,H; OH,H; H,OH; and .dbd.0 may be prepared by methods described in the literature and known to those skilled in the art. For example, as illustrated in Scheme 13, the spiro[2H-1-benzopyran-2,4'-piperidine]analog can be prepared from a substituted or unsubstituted 2-hydroxyacetophenone and a properly protected 4-piperidone as described by Kabbe, H. J. Synthesis 1978, 886-887 and references cited therein. The 2-hydroxyacetophenones, in turn, are either commercially available or can be prepared by routes in the literature known to those skilled in the art. Such methods are described by Chang, C. T. et al, in J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1961, 3414-3417. and by Elliott, J. M. et al, in J. Med. Chem. 1992, 35, 3973-3976. Removal of the protecting group as described in: Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, Greene, T. W., Wuts, P. G., John Wiley & sons, New York, 1991, and Olofson, R. A. et al, J. Org. Chem. 1984, 49, 2081-2082, provides the amine which then can be incorporated into a growth hormone secretagogue via the chemistry detailed in Schemes 1 and 8 shown above which utilize generic intermediate 2. ##STR26##
The ketone functionality in compounds of general structure 27 may be reduced to an alcohol using sodium borohydride or may be fully reduced to a methylene also employing conditions known to those skilled in the art. For example, reduction of the ketone with sodium borohydride, followed by treatment with concentrated hydrochloric acid and hydrogenation yield compounds with general structure 29. The amine of structure 27, 28, or 29 can then be incorporated into a growth hormone secretagogue via the chemistry detailed in Schemes 1 and 8 utilizing generic formula 2. Alternatively, the ketone can often be reduced after incorporation into the compounds of Formula I.
Preparation of chiral hydroxyspiro[2H-1-benzopyran-2,4'-piperidine]analogs can be achieved using optically active reducing agents and the crystallization of diastereomeric salts.
The compounds of formulas I and II of the present invention are prepared from a variety of substituted natural and unnatural amino acids such as those of formulas 30 and 6 and 7 where A is --(CH.sub.2).sub.x --C(R.sub.7)(R.sub.7a)--(CH.sub.2).sub.y--. The preparation of many of these acids has been described in the U.S. Pat. No. 5,206,237. The preparation of these intermediates in racemic form is accomplished by classical methods familiar to those skilled in the art (Williams, R. M. "Synthesis of Optically Active .alpha.-Amino Acids" Pergamon Press: Oxford, 1989; Vol. 7). Several methods exist to resolve (DL)-- ##STR27## amino acids. One of the common methods is to resolve amino or carboxyl protected intermediates by crystallization of salts derived from optically active acids or amines. Alternatively, the amino group of carboxyl protected intermediates can be coupled to optically active acids by using chemistry described earlier. Separation of the individual diastereomers either by chromatographic techniques or by crystallization followed by hydrolysis of the chiral amide furnishes resolved amino acids. Similarly, amino protected intermediates can be converted to a mixture of chiral diastereomeric esters and amides. Separation of the mixture using methods described above and hydrolysis of the individual diastereomers provides (D) and (L) amino acids. Finally, an enzymatic method to resolve N-acetyl derivatives of (DL)amino acids has been reported by Whitesides and coworkers in J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1989, 111, 6354-6364.
When it is desirable to synthesize these intermediates in optically pure form, some established methods include: (1) asymmetric electrophilic amination of chiral enolates (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1986, 108, 6394-6395, 6395-6397, and 6397-6399), (2) asymmetric nucleophilic amination of optically active carbonyl derivatives, (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1992, 114, 1906; Tetrahedron Lett. 1987, 28, 32), (3) diastereoselective alkylation of chiral glycine enolate synthons (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1991, 113, 9276; J. Org. Chem. 1989, 54, 3916), (4) diastereoselective nucleophilic addition to a chiral electrophilic glycinate synthon (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1986, 108, 1103), (5) asymmetric hydrogenation of prochiral dehydroamino acid derivatives ("Asymmetric Synthesis, Chiral Catalysis; " Morrison, J. D., Ed; Academic Press: Orlando, Fla., 1985; Vol 5), and (6) enzymatic syntheses (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 1978, 17, 176).
For example, alkylation of the enolate of diphenyloxazinone 31 (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1991, 113, 9276) with cinnamyl bromide in the presence of sodium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide proceeds smoothly to afford 32 which is converted into the desired (D)-2-amino-5-phenylpentanoic acid 33 by removing the N-t-butyloxycarbonyl group with trifluoroacetic acid and hydrogenation over a PdCl.sub.2 catalyst (Scheme 14) ##STR28##
Intermediates of formula 30 which are O-benzyl-(D)-serine derivatives 34 are conveniently prepared from suitably substituted benzyl halides and N-protected-(D)-serine 34. The protecting group L is conveniently a BOC or a CBZ group. Benzylation of 34 can be achieved by a number of methods well known in the literature including deprotonation with two equivalents of sodium hydride in an inert solvent such as DMF followed by treatment with one equivalent of a variety of benzyl halides (Synthesis 1989, 36) as shown in Scheme 15. ##STR29##
The O-alkyl-(D)-serine derivatives are also prepared using the alkylation protocol shown in Scheme 15. Other methods that could be utilized to prepare (D)-serine derivatives of formula 35 include the acid catalyzed benzylation of carboxyl protected intermediates derived from 34 with reagents of formula ArCH.sub.2 OC(.dbd.NH)CCl.sub.3 (0. Yonemitsu et al. Chem. Pharm. Bull. 1988, 36, 4244). Alternatively, alkylation of the chiral gylcine enolates (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1991, 113, 9276; J. Org. Chem. 1989, 54, 3916) with ArCH.sub.2 OCH.sub.2 X where X is a leaving group affords 35. In addition D,L-O-aryl(alkyl)serines can be prepared and resolved by methods described above.
The alkylation of N-protected-(D)-cysteine 36 is carried out by the procedure described in the (D)-serine derivative synthesis and illustrated below with R.sub.1a -X where X is a leaving group such as halides and mesyloxy groups as shown in Scheme 16. ##STR30##
The oxidation of the cysteine derivatives 37 to the sulfoxide 38 (n=1 ) and the sulfone 38 (n=2) can be accomplished with many oxidizing agents. (For a review of the oxidation of sulfides see Org. Prep. Proced. Int. 1982, 14, 45.) Sodium periodate (J. Org. Chem. 1967, 32, 3191 ) is often used for the synthesis of sulfoxides and potassium hydrogen persulfate (OXONE) (Tetrahedron Lett. 1981, 22, 1287) is used for the synthesis of sulfones.
Hence, a variety of substituted amino acids may be incorporated into a growth hormone secretagogue via the chemistry detailed in Schemes 1 and 8. The secretagogues that contain a sulfoxide or a sulfone functional group can also be prepared from the cysteine secretagogues by using sodium periodate or OXONE.RTM.. Alternatively hydrogen peroxide may be used as the oxidizing reagent in the last step of the synthesis as shown in Scheme 17. The sulfoxide 40 (n=1) and sulfone 40 (n=2) analogs can be separated by preparative thin layer chromatography. ##STR31## Removal of amino protecting groups can be achieved by a number of methods known in the art; as described above and in Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis T. W. Greene, John Wiley and Sons, NY. 1981.
Compounds of formula I wherein R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are each hydrogen can be further elaborated by reductive alkylation with an aldehyde by the aforementioned procedures or by alkylations such as by reaction with various epoxides. The products, obtained as hydrochloride or trifluoroacetate salts, are conveniently purified by reverse phase high performance liquid chromatogrphy (HPLC) or by recrystallization.
The spiro piperidines of formula 41 can be prepared by a number of methods, including the syntheses as described below. ##STR32##
The spiropiperidines of formula 42, wherein L is a defined protecting group, can be synthesized by methods that are known in the literature (for example H. Ong et al J. Med. Chem. 1983, 23, 981-986). The indoline nitrogen of 42, wherein L is a protecting group such as methyl or benzyl, can be reacted by with a variety of electrophiles to yield spiro piperidines of formula 43, wherein R.sub.9 can be a variety of functionalities. Compound 42 can be reacted with, for example, isocyanates in an inert solvent like dichloromethane to yield urea derivatives, chloroformates in an inert solvent like dichloromethane to yield carbamates, acid chlorides, ##STR33## anhydrides, or acyl imidazoles to generate amides, sulfonyl chlorides to generate sulfonamides, sulfamyl chlorides to yield sulfamides. Also, the indoline nitrogen of 42 can be reductively alkylated with aldehydes with conditions known in the art. When the aldehyde used in the reductive amination reaction is a protected glyoxylic acid of structure HCOCOOM, wherein M is a defined protecting group, M can be removed from the product and further derivatized. Alternatively, 42 can be reacted with epoxides to produce 43, wherein R.sub.9 is .beta.-hydroxy-substituted alkyl or arylalkyl groups. The indoline 42 can also be transformed to compounds of formula 43, wherein R.sub.9 =phenyl or substituted phenyl, heteroaryl or substituted heteroaryl, by carrying out the reacting 42 with a fluoro phenyl or fluoro heteroaryl reagent. This chemistry is detailed in H. Ong et al J. Med. Chem. 1983, 23, 981-986. ##STR34##
The spiro piperidine intermediate 43 (L=Me or Bn), wherein R.sub.9 is hydrogen or most of the derivatives described above, can be demethylated or debenzylated to produce 44, wherein R.sub.9 is hydrogen or most of the derivatives described above, as shown in Scheme 19. For compounds of formula 43, wherein L=Me, demethylation can be carded out by a number methods familiar those skilled in the art. For example, demethylation of 43 be accomplished by reacting it with cyanogen bromide and potassium carbonate in an inert solvent solvent such as dichloromethane to yield a cyanamide which can reduced to give 44 by treatment with lithium aluminum hydride in refluxing tetrahydrofuran, refluxing strong acid like aqueous hydrochloric acid, or with Grignard reagents like methyl magnesium bromide. Alternatively, demethylation of 43 can be effected with the ACE-Cl method as described in R. Olofson et al. J. Org. Chem. 1984, 49, 2795 and references therein. For intermediates of formula 43, wherein L=Bn, removal of benzyl group can be accomplished by reductive methods including hydrogenation in the presence of platinum or palladium catalyst in a protic solvent like methanol. Alternatively, debenzylation of 43, L =Bn, can be effected with the ACE-Cl method as described in R. Olofson et al. J. Org. Chem. 1984.
The spiro heterocyclic compounds 45 can be prepared by a number of methods, including the syntheses as described in Scheme 20. ##STR35## Allylic oxidation of the protected piperidine 47 is accomplished by classical methods familiar to those skilled in the art (Rabjohn, N. Org. React. 1976, 24, 261 ). The resulting allylic alcohol is treated with thionyl chloride in an inert solvent such as benzene to provide the corresponding chloride 48. When D.dbd.O or S, the alkylation is carried out in DMF or acetone as solvent with potassium carbonate as a base, and when D.dbd.NR.sub.9 (R.sub.9 =H, alkyl, aryl, acyl, sulfonyl, carbamate) the reaction is carried out with sodium hydride as a base in an inert solvent such as THF to afford the cyclization precursor 49. When L is a defined protecting group, compound 49 can be cyclized by a number methods familiar to those skilled in the art. For example, cyclization of can be accomplished by reaction with tributyltin hydride (Curran, D. P. Synthesis 1988, 417 and 489) in an inert solvent such as benzene to yield 46. Alternatively, compound 46 (D=NR.sub.9) can be prepared by the method shown in Schemes 18 and 19. When D.dbd.S, compound 46 can be oxidized to the sulfoxide 47 (n=1) and the sulfone 47 (n=2) by many oxidizing agents (Scheme 21 ). For example, sodium periodate is often used for the synthesis of sulfoxides and OXONE is used for the synthesis of sulfones. Removal of the protecting group provides the amine 45 which then can be incorporated into a growth hormone secretagogue via the chemistry detaileds in Scheme 1 and 8 shown above which utilize genetic intermediate 2. ##STR36##
The spiro piperidines of formula 50 and formula 51 can be prepared by the syntheses described in Scheme 22.
The phthalimidines of formula 53, where R.sub.11 is defined as alkyl, aryl, (CH2).sub.q -aryl, or a protecting group, are either commercially available or can be synthesized from the corresponding phthalimides by methods that are known in the literature (for example, Bewster et al in J. Org. Chem., 1963, 28. 501; Mcalees et al J. Chem. Soc., 1977, 2038). The phthalimidine 53 can be alkylated in the presence of a base, such as potassium hydride, lithium or potassium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide, with the protected bis 2-haloethyl amine, where L is a defined protecting group such as methyl, benzyl, t-BOC, or CBZ, etc., and Y could be Cl, Br, I, to yield the spiropiperidine 54. The protecting group could be removed by procedures described above to yield formula 50. Reduction of the lactam in formula 50 by hydrides, such as lithium aluminum hydride, yields formula 51. ##STR37##
It is noted that the order of carrying out the foregoing reaction schemes is not significant and it is within the skill of one skilled in the art to vary the order of reactions to facilitate the reaction or to avoid unwanted reaction products.
The growth hormone releasing compounds of Formula I and II are useful in vitro as unique tools for understanding how growth hormone secretion is regulated at the pituitary level. This includes use in the evaluation of many factors thought or known to influence growth hormone secretion such as age, sex, nutritional factors, glucose, amino acids, fatty acids, as well as fasting and non-fasting states. In addition, the compounds of this invention can be used in the evaluation of how other hormones modify growth hormone releasing activity. For example, it has already been established that somatostatin inhibits growth hormone release. Other hormones that are important and in need of study as to their effect on growth hormone release include the gonadal hormones, e.g., testosterone, estradiol, and progesterone; the adrenal hormones, e.g., cortisol and other corticoids, epinephrine and norepinephrine; the pancreatic and gastrointestinal hormones, e.g., insulin, glucagon, gastrin, secretin; the vasoactive peptides, e.g., bombesin, the neurokinins; and the thyroid hormones, e.g., thyroxine and triiodothyronine. The compounds of Formulas I and II can also be employed to investigate the possible negative or positive feedback effects of some of the pituitary hormones, e.g., growth hormone and endorphin peptides, on the pituitary to modify growth hormone release. Of particular scientific importance is the use of these compounds to elucidate the subcellular mechanisms mediating the release of growth hormone.
The compounds of Formula I and II can be administered to animals, including man, to release growth hormone in vivo. For example, the compounds can be administered to commercially important animals such as swine, cattle, sheep and the like to accelerate and increase their rate and extent of growth, to improve feed efficiency and to increase milk production in such animals. In addition, these compounds can be administered to humans in vivo as a diagnostic tool to directly determine whether the pituitary is capable of releasing growth hormone. For example, the compounds of Formula I and II can be administered in vivo to children. Serum samples taken before and after such administration can be assayed for growth hormone. Comparison of the amounts of growth hormone in each of these samples would be a means for directly determining the ability of the patient's pituitary to release growth hormone.
Accordingly, the present invention includes within its scope pharmaceutical compositions comprising, as an active ingredient, at least one of the compounds of Formula I and II in association with a pharmaceutical carrier or diluent. Optionally, the active ingredient of the pharmaceutical compositions can comprise an anabolic agent in addition to at least one of the compounds of Formula I and II or another composition which exhibits a different activity, e.g., an antibiotic growth permittant or an agent to treat osteoporosis or in combination with a corticosteroid to minimize the catabolic side effects or with other pharmaceutically active materials wherein the combination enhances efficacy and minimizes side effects.
Growth promoting and anabolic agents include, but are not limited to, TRH, diethylstilbesterol, estrogens, .beta.-agonists, theophylline, anabolic steroids, enkephalins, E series prostaglandins, compounds disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,239,345, e.g., zeranol, and compounds disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,036,979, e.g., sulbenox or peptides disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,411,890.
A still further use of the growth hormone secretagogues of this invention is in combination with other growth hormone secretagogues such as the growth hormone releasing peptides GHRP-6, GHRP-1 as described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,411,890 and publications WO 89/07110, WO 89/07111 and B-HT920 as well as hexarelin and the newly discovered GHRP-2 as described in WO 93/04081 or growth hormone releasing hormone (GHRH, also designated GRF) and its analogs or growth hormone and its analogs or somatomedins including IGF-1 and IGF-2 or .alpha.- adrenergic aginists such as clonidine or serotonin 5HTID agonists such as sumitriptan or agents which inhibit somatostatin or its release such as physostigmine and pyridostigmine.
As is well known to those skilled in the art, the known and potential uses of growth hormone are varied and multitudinous. Thus, the administration of the compounds of this invention for purposes of stimulating the release of endogenous growth hormone can have the same effects or uses as growth hormone itself. These varied uses of growth hormone may be summarized as follows: stimulating growth hormone release in elderly humans; treating growth hormone deficient adults; prevention of catabolic side effects of glucocorticoids, treatment of osteoporosis, stimulation of the immune system, acceleration of wound healing, accelerating bone fracture repair, treatment of growth retardation, treating acute or chronic renal failure or insufficiency, treatment of physiological short stature, including growth hormone deficient children, treating short stature associated with chronic illness, treatment of obesity and growth retardation associated with obesity, treating growth retardation associated with Prader-Willi syndrome and Tumer's syndrome; accelerating the recovery and reducing hospitalization of bum patients or following major surgery such as gastrointestinal surgery; treatment of intrauterine growth retardation, skeletal dysplasia, hyperconisonism and Cushings syndrome; replacement of growth hormone in stressed patients; treatment of osteochondrodysplasias, Noonans syndrome, sleep disorders, Alzheimer's disease, delayed wound healing, and psychosocial deprivation; treatment of pulmonary dysfunction and ventilator dependency; attenuation of protein catabolic response after a major operation; treating malabsorption syndromes ,reducing cachexia and protein loss due to chronic illness such as cancer or AIDS; accelerating weight gain and protein accretion in patients on TPN (total parenteral nutrition); treatment of hyperinsulinemia including nesidioblastosis; adjuvant treatment for ovulation induction and to prevent and treat gastric and duodenal ulcers; to stimulate thymic development and prevent the age-related decline of thymic function; adjunctive therapy for patients on chronic hemodialysis; treatment of immunosuppressed patients and to enhance antibody response following vaccination; improvement in muscle strength, mobility, maintenance of skin thickness, metabolic homeostasis, renal hemeostasis in the frail elderly; stimulation of osteoblasts, bone remodelling, and cartilage growth; treatment of neurological diseases such as peripheral and drug induced neuropathy, Guillian-Barre Syndrome, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, multiple sclerosis, cerebrovascular accidents and demyelinating diseases; stimulation of the immune system in companion animals and treatment of disorders of aging in companion animals; growth promotant in livestock; and stimulation of wool growth in sheep.
It will be known to those skilled in the art that there are numerous compounds now being used in an effort to treat the diseases or therapeutic indications enumerated above. Combinations of these therapeutic agents some of which have also been mentioned above with the growth hormone secretagogues of this invention will bring additional, complementary, and often synergistic properties to enhance the growth promotant, anabolic and desirable properties of these various therapeutic agents. In these combinations, the therapeutic agents and the growth hormone secretagogues of this invention may be independently present in dose ranges from one one-hundredth to one times the dose levels which are effective when these compounds and secretagogues are used singly.
Combined therapy to inhibit bone resorption, prevent osteoporosis and enhance the healing of bone fractures can be illustrated by combinations of bisphosphonates and the growth hormone secretagogues of this invention. The use of bisphosphonates for these utilities has been reviewed, for example, by Hamdy, N.A.T., Role of Bisphosphonates in Metabolic Bone Diseases. Trends in Endocrinol. Metab., 1993, 4, 19-25. Bisphosphonates with these utilities include alendronate, tiludronate, dimethyl - APD, risedronate, etidronate, YM-175, clodronate, pamidronate, and BM-210995. According to their potency, oral daily dosage levels of the bisphosphonate of between 0.1 mg and 5 g and daily dosage levels of the growth hormone secretagogues of this invention of between 0.01 mg/kg to 20 mg/kg of body weight are administered to patients to obtain effective treatment of osteoporosis.
The compounds of this invention can be administered by oral, parenteral (e.g., intramuscular, intraperitoneal, intravenous or subcutaneous injection, or implant), nasal, vaginal, rectal, sublingual, or topical routes of administration and can be formulated in dosage forms appropriate for each route of administration.
Solid dosage forms for oral administration include capsules, tablets, pills, powders and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound is admixed with at least one inert pharmaceutically acceptable carrier such as sucrose, lactose, or starch. Such dosage forms can also comprise, as is normal practice, additional substances other than inert diluents, e.g., lubricating agents such as magnesium stearate. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the dosage forms may also comprise buffering agents. Tablets and pills can additionally be prepared with enteric coatings.
Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, the elixirs containing inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water. Besides such inert diluents, compositions can also include adjuvants, such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, and sweetening, flavoring, and perfuming agents.
Preparations according to this invention for parenteral administration include sterile aqueous or non-aqueous solutions, suspensions, or emulsions. Examples of non-aqueous solvents or vehicles are propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, vegetable oils, such as olive oil and corn oil, gelatin, and injectable organic esters such as ethyl oleate. Such dosage forms may also contain adjuvants such as preserving, wetting, emulsifying, and dispersing agents. They may be sterilized by, for example, filtration through a bacteria-retaining filter, by incorporating sterilizing agents into the compositions, by irradiating the compositions, or by heating the compositions. They can also be manufactured in the form of sterile solid compositions which can be dissolved in sterile water, or some other sterile injectable medium immediately before use.
Compositions for rectal or vaginal administration are preferably suppositories which may contain, in addition to the active substance, excipients such as cocoa butter or a suppository wax.
Compositions for nasal or sublingual administration are also prepared with standard excipients well known in the art.
The dosage of active ingredient in the compositions of this invention may be varied; however, it is necessary that the amount of the active ingredient be such that a suitable dosage form is obtained. The selected dosage depends upon the desired therapeutic effect, on the route of administration, and on the duration of the treatment. Generally, dosage levels of between 0.0001 to 100 mg/kg of body weight daily are administered to patients and animals, e.g., mammals, to obtain effective release of growth hormone.
The following examples are provided for the purpose of further illustration only and are not intended to be limitations on the disclosed invention.
