The present invention relates to novel substituted quinoline derivatives, processes for their preparation, intermediates useful in their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use in therapy.
Substituted quinoline derivatives having activity as inhibitors of gastric acid secretion are known in the art. In particular, U.S. Pat. No. 4343804 and EP 259174-A disclose series of 4-phenylaminoquinoline compounds in which the phenyl ring is optionally substituted by a range of substituents.
It has now been found that a novel class of compounds falling within the above 2 broad disclosures, namely 4-phenylaminoquinolines in which the phenyl ring is substituted by a 4-hydroxy group are particularly potent inhibitors of gastric acid secretion.
Accordingly, the present invention provides, in a first aspect, a compound of structure (I): ##STR2## in which R.sup.1 is hydrogen, C.sub.1-6 alkyl, C.sub.1-6 alkoxy, C.sub.1-6 alkoxyC.sub.1-6 -alkyl, C.sub.3-6 cycloalkyl, C.sub.3-6 cycloalkylC.sub.1-6 alkyl, phenylC.sub.1-6 alkyl, the phenyl group being optionally substituted;

Suitably m is 1 to 3, preferably m is 1 or 2; most preferably m is 1.
Suitably R.sup.2 is hydrogen, C.sub.1-6 alkyl, C.sub.1-6 alkoxy, amino, C.sub.1-6 alkylthio, halogen, cyano, hydroxy, C.sub.1-6 alkanoyl or trifluoromethyl.
Preferably R.sup.2 is hydrogen, C.sub.1-6 alkyl or C.sub.1-6 alkoxy; most preferably R.sup.2 is C.sub.1-6 alkyl or C.sub.1-6 alkoxy in particular methyl or methoxy.
Preferably at least one group R.sup.2 is in the 2-position of the phenyl ring (i.e. ortho to the bond joining the ring to the nitrogen atom).
Suitably, n is 1 or 2, preferably n is 1; preferably R.sup.3 is in the 8-position of the quinoline ring.

Preferably R.sup.3 is hydrogen, C.sub.1-6 alkyl or C.sub.1-6 alkoxy, for example, methyl or methoxy.
Suitably R.sup.4 O- is a bioprecursor of a hydroxy group that is to say a group which is converted to a hydroxy group on administration to a subject. Preferably R.sup.4 O-is, for example, C.sub.1-6 alkoxy, aryl C.sub.1-6 alkoxy (for example OCH.sub.2 Ph), C.sub.1-6 alkanoyloxy (for example OCOCH.sub.3 or OCOC(CH.sub.3).sub.3), arylC.sub.1-6 alkanoyloxy (for example OCOCH.sub.2 Ph), arylsulphonyloxy (for example toluenesulphonyloxy) or alkylsulphonyloxy (for example methanesulphonyloxy); most preferably R.sup.4 O- is hydroxy.

Phenyl C.sub.1-6 alkyl groups include for example the benzyl, phenylethyl, phenylpropyl and phenylbutyl groups, and such groups in which the alkyl position thereof is branched e.g. 1-methylbenzyl.
Substituted phenyl C.sub.1-6 alkyl groups R.sup.1 include, for example, phenyl groups substituted by 1 to 3 substituents R.sup.2 as hereinbefore described.
It will be appreciated that compounds of structure (I) in which one or more of R.sup.1 to R.sup.3 is a C.sub.3-6 alkyl group (either alone or as part of another group for example a benzyl or phenethyl group) may contain an asymmetric centre due to the presence of the C.sub.3-6 alkyl group. Such compounds will exist as two (or more) optical isomers (enantiomers). Both the pure enantiomers, racemic mixtures (50% of each enantiomer) and unequal mixtures of the two are included within the scope of the present invention. Further, all diastereomeric forms possible (pure enantiomers and mixtures thereof) are within the scope of the invention.
Compounds of structure (I) can form pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts with suitable organic and inorganic acids the nature of which will be apparent to persons skilled in the art. For example, pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be formed by reaction with hydrochloric, sulphuric, or phosphoric acids; aliphatic, aromatic or heterocyclic sulphonic acids or carboxylic acids such as for example, citric, maleic or fumaric acids.
In a further aspect, the present invention provides a process for the preparation of a compound of structure (I) which comprises
(a) reaction of a compound of structure (II) with a compound of structure (III): ##STR3## in which R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, n and m are as described for structure (I), R.sup.5 is hydrogen or a protecting group and X is a group displaceable by an amine;
(b) reduction of a compound of structure (IV): ##STR4## in which R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 n and m are as described for structure (I), R.sup.5 is a hydrogen or a protecting group and R.sup.6 is hydrogen or a nitrogen protecting group;
(c) for compounds of structure (I) in which R.sup.1 is other than C.sub.1-6 alkoxy, oxidation of a compound of structure (V): ##STR5## in which R.sup.2, R.sup.3, n and m are as described for structure (I), R.sup.1' is a group R.sup.1 other than C.sub.1-6 alkoxy and R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 are as described for structure (IV); and thereafter if desired,
.largecircle. removing any protecting groups;
.largecircle. converting a group R.sup.1 into another group R.sup.1 ;
.largecircle. forming a salt.
Suitable groups X displaceable by an amine, include for example, halo moieties, aryl or alkylsulphonates, for example, toluene-p-sulphonate or methane sulphonate, alkylthio, alkylsulphonyl, alkylsulphinyl, alkoxy or aryloxy groups. Preferably X is halo, for example, chloro or bromo, or an aryloxy moiety such as phenoxy.
Suitable hydroxy protecting groups R.sup.5 and nitrogen protecting groups R.sup.6 will be apparent to those skilled in the art for example as described in "Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis" T.W. Greene, 1981 (Wiley).
The reaction between compounds of structure (II) and compounds of structure (III) is carried out in an organic solvent at a temperature of between ambient and reflux temperature of the solvent used. Suitable solvents include, for example, tetrahydrofuran, dioxan or anisole. Preferably the reaction is carried out at reflux temperature in dioxan as a solvent.
The reduction of a compound of structure (IV) is carried out by for example hydrogenation, over a noble metal catalyst in a suitable solvent. Suitably the reaction is carried out over a palladium on carbon catalyst in ethanol as a solvent.
The compounds of structure (IV) can be prepared from the corresponding compounds of structure (VI): ##STR6## in which R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.5, R.sup.6, n and m are as hereinbefore described, by reaction with, for example, phosphorus oxychloride.
The oxidation of a compound of structure (V) is carried out in a suitable solvent in the presence of an oxidising agent. Suitable oxidising agents include, for example, manganese dioxide or chromium trioxide.
Suitable interconversions of groups R.sup.1 will be apparent to those skilled in the art, for example compounds of structure (I) in which R.sup.1 is C.sub.2-6 alkyl, C.sub.3-6 cycloalkylC.sub.2-6 alkyl or optionally substituted phenylC.sub.2-6 alkyl can be prepared by alkylation of the following compounds of structure (IA): ##STR7## in which R.sup.2, R.sup.3, n and m are as described for structure (I) and R.sup.5 and R.sup.6 are as described for structure (IV).
The alkylation of compounds of structure (IA) is carried out in the presence of an alkylating agent in a suitable organic solvent at a temperature of between ambient and reflux temperature of the solvent used in the presence of a strong base. Suitable alkylating agents include, for example alkyl or aralkyl halides such as methyl or benzyl iodide and dialkyl sulphates such as dimethyl or diethylsulphate. Suitable strong bases include, for example, sodium hydride, lithium diisopropylamide or dimsyl sodium (the sodium salt of dimethyl sulphoxide). Subsequent removal of any protecting groups present affords the desired compounds of structure (I).
The intermediates of structure (II), (IV), (V) and (VI) can be prepared by standard techniques.
The intermediates of structure (III) are commercially available or can be prepared by standard techniques.
The compounds of structure (I) and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts exert an anti-secretory effect by inhibition of the gastrointestinal H.sup.+ K.sup.+ ATPase enzyme (Fellenius, E., Berglindh, T., Sachs, G., Olke, L., Elander, B., Sjostrand, S.E., and Wallmark, B., 1981, Nature, 290, 159-61).
In a further aspect therefore the present invention provides compounds of structure (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof for use in therapy. The compounds of structure (I) and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts inhibit exogenously and endogenously stimulated gastric acid secretion and are useful in the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases in mammals, in particular humans. Such diseases include, for example, gastric and duodenal ulcers, aspiration pneumonitis and Zollinger-Ellison Syndrome.
Further, the compounds of structure (I) can be used in the treatment of other disorders where an anti-secretory effect is desirable for example in patients with gastritis, NSAID induced gastritis, acute upper intestinal bleeding, in patients with a history of chronic and excessive alcohol consumption, and in patients with gastro oesophageal reflux disease (GERD).
In therapeutic use, the compounds of the present invention are usually administered in a standard pharmaceutical composition. The present invention therefore provides in a further aspect pharmaceutical compositions comprising a compound of structure (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
The compounds of structure (I) and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts which are active when given orally can be formulated as liquids, for example syrups, suspensions or emulsions, tablets, capsules and lozenges.
A liquid formulation will generally consist of a suspension or solution of the compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt in a suitable liquid carrier(s) for example, ethanol, glycerine, non-aqueous solvent, for example polyethylene glycol, oils, or water with a suspending agent, preservative, flavouring or colouring agent.
A composition in the form of a tablet can be prepared using any suitable pharmaceutical carrier(s) routinely used for preparing solid formulations. Examples of such carriers include magnesium stearate, starch, lactose, sucrose and cellulose.
A composition in the form of a capsule can be prepared using routine encapsulation procedures. For example, pellets containing the active ingredient can be prepared using standard carriers and then filled into a hard gelatin capsule; alternatively, a dispersion or suspension can be prepared using any suitable pharmaceutical carrier(s), for example aqueous gums, celluloses, silicates or oils and the dispersion or suspension then filled into a soft gelatin capsule.
Typical parenteral compositions consist of a solution or suspension of the compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt in a sterile aqueous carrier or parenterally acceptable oil, for example polyethylene glycol, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, lecithin, arachis oil or sesame oil. Alternatively, the solution can be lyophilised and then reconstituted with a suitable solvent just prior to administration.
A typical suppository formulation comprises a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof which is active when administered in this way, with a binding and/or lubricating agent such as polymeric glycols, gelatins or cocoa butter or other low melting vegetable or synthetic waxes or fats.
Preferably the composition is in unit dose form such as a tablet or capsule.
Each dosage unit for oral administration contains preferably from 1 to 250 mg (and for parenteral administration contains preferably from 0.1 to 25 mg) of a compound of the formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof calculated as the free base.
The present invention also provides a method of inhibiting gastric acid secretion which comprises administering to a mammal in need thereof an effective amount of a compound of the formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; and a method of treatment of diseases of the stomach or intestine based on increased acid secretion which comprises administering to a mammal in need thereof an effective amount of a compound of the formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
The pharmaceutically acceptable compounds of the invention will normally be administered to a subject for the treatment of gastro-intestinal diseases and other conditions caused or exacerbated by gastric acidity. The daily dosage regimen for an adult patient may be, for example, an oral dose of between 1 mg and 500 mg, preferably between 1 mg and 250 mg, or an intravenous, subcutaneous, or intramuscular dose of between 0.1 mg and 100 mg, preferably between 0.1 mg and 25 mg, of the compound of the formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof calculated as the free base, the compound being administered 1 to 4 times per day. Suitably the compounds will be administered for a period of continuous therapy, for example for a week or more.
In addition, the compounds of the present invention can be co-administered with further active ingredients, such as antacids (for example magnesium carbonate or hydroxide and aluminium hydroxide), non-steroidal antiflammatory drugs (for example indomethacin, aspirin or naproxen), steroids, or nitrite scavengers (for example ascorbic acid or aminosulphonic acid), or other drugs used for treating gastric ulcers (for example pirenzipine, prostanoids for example 16,16 dimethyl PGE.sub.2, or histamine H.sub.2 -antagonists (for example, cimetidine).
