Description

TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to novel substituted-amidinobenzene derivatives and their salts which are useful as medicines, especially as GPIIb/IIIa antagonists.
BACKGROUND ART
For a long period of time after the finding by Donne in 1842 (see C.R. Acad. Sci. (Paris), 14, 336-368, 1842); blood platelets have been considered as the component in blood which is necessary for hemostasis. At present, it has been clarified that blood platelets not only play the principal part in the hemostatic mechanism of blood but also are multi-functional as participating in the creation of arteriosclerosis, cardiovascular system disorders including thrombotic disorders, cancer metastases, inflammations, rejections after transplants, and also immunoreactions, etc., which are clinically important. The thrombotic disorders and ischemic disorders are therapeutically treated by restoring the circulation of the blood by the application of medicines or by physical means. However, a clinically problematic phenomena has been found recently that, after the restoration of the blood circulation, the activation, the adhesion and the aggregation of blood platelets are promoted based on the damage of the blood vessel tissue including endothelial cells and the unbalanced systemic fibrinolysis-coagulation equilibrium caused by the medicines itself, and the like. For instance, it has been clarified that, after the circulation of the blood has been restored by thrombolytic therapy using t-PA (tissue Plasminogen Actitor) or the like, the fibrinolytic activity and the coagulating activity are activated to break the systemic fibrinolysis-coagulation equilibrium. Clinically, it causes re-occlusion and is therefore seriously problematic in the therapy (see J. Am. Coll. Cardiol., 12, 616-623, 1988). On the other hand, a PTCA Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty) therapy has been rapidly popularized, with producing good results in some degree, for curing disorders as based on coronary stenosis and aortostenosis, such as stenocardia, myocardial infarction, etc. However, this therapy involves serious problems in that it damages the blood vessel tissue including endothelial cells to cause acute coronary obstruction and even re-stenosis which occurs in about 30% of therapeutical cases. Blood platelets play the principal role in various thrombotic disorders (e.g., re-occlusion) following such blood circulation-restoring therapy. Therefore, the effectiveness of anti-platelet agents would be expected for such disorders. However, conventional anti-platelet agents have not as yet been verified to be satisfactorily effective. GPIIb/IIIa is a platelet membrane glycoprotein which is one of the integrin family (see Blood, 80, 1386-1404, 1992). This integrin binds to adhesive proteins such as fibrinogen, von Willebrand factor, etc., and have an important function at the terminal in blood platelet aggregation. Monoclonal antibodies against GPIIb/IIIa, peptides having an RGD sequence and the like have potent platelet aggregation inhibiting activity, and some of which have already been put into clinical examinations.
Non-peptidic, low molecular weight GPIIb/IIIa antagonists are known in a published Japanese patent application (kokai) 4-288051 (sulfonamide fibrinogen receptor antagonists of the following representative compound, ##STR2## and a published Japanese patent application (kokai) 6-25227 (cyclic imino derivatives of the following representative compound, ##STR3## and are disclosed by Leo et al.

(Other Production Methods)
Among the compounds (I) of the present invention, those having a carboxyl group as R.sup.2 and/or R.sup.3 can be obtained by dissolving the corresponding compounds having a group which can be converted into a carboxyl group in vivo as R.sup.2 and/or R.sup.3, in an appropriate solvent followed by ordinary hydrolysis of ester under basic conditions, acidic conditions or neutral conditions.

The reaction normally proceeds under room temperature but sometimes should be carried out under ice-cooling or with heating, and thus the reaction is carried out under the appropriately selected temperature.
Selecting the conditions for the hydrolysis appropriately, substituted-carboxylic acid compounds having only one carboxyl group. For example, an ester compound in which one ester residue is easily hydrolyzed under acidic conditions (for example, tert-butyl group or the like) and the other ester residue is easily hydrolyzed under basic conditions (for example, methyl ester, ethyl ester or the like) is hydrolyzed under selected conditions (acidic or basic conditions), whereby only one of the two ester residues is selectively hydrolyzed.
If desired, carboxylic acid compounds can further be esterified to give desired esters. The esterification can be effected in any ordinary manner under suitably selected conditions.
Compounds of the present invention where R.sup.2 and/or R.sup.3 are/is the group which can be converted into a carboxyl group in vivo can also be obtained by interesterification with suitable alcohols. For example, a large excess amount of an alcohol is used for the interesterification to be carried out in the presence of an acid or a base or any other catalyst (for example, titanium (IV) alkoxide) or the other alcohols to be formed during the reaction are removed out of the reaction system, thereby shifting the equilibrium of the reaction toward the system of producing the desired ester compound.
(Methods for Producing Compounds of Starting Compounds)
Next, methods for preparing the compounds to be used as starting compounds are described below.
Production Method A ##STR14## (In the formula, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, X.sup.1, and X.sup.2 have the same meanings as mentioned above.)
The compound (VII) may be obtained by dissolving a compound (VI) in an appropriate solvent followed by reaction with an appropriate secondary amine to give an enamine, and then allowing alkyl acrylate (e.g., methyl acrylate) or halogenated alkyl (e.g., ethyl bromoacetate) to act on the enamine. The enamine may be used after isolation or without isolation.
Examples of the secondary amine include pyrrolidine, piperidine, morpholine, diethylamine, and diisopropylamine.
Examples of the solvent include toluene, benzene, chlorobenzene, and the like. In addition to these commonly used solvents, the reaction may be carried out in any other organic solvents as long as the solvent does not cause bad influence on the reaction.
The reaction is carried out with removing water out of the system which is formed when enamine is formed, by adding water-absorbing agents such as potassium hydroxide, Molecular Sieves, etc. or by using Dean-Stark Trap (azeotropic dehydrate apparatus). The temperature for the reaction is preferably set to azeotropic or reflux temperature.
Production Method B ##STR15## (In the formula, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, X.sup.1, X.sup.2, m and n have the same meanings as above.)
The compound (II) is obtained by dissolving a compound (VIII) in a suitable solvent followed by reacting it with an amine compound (IX) to give a Schiff base, which is then reduced after isolation or without isolation.
The solvent is an organic solvent inert to the reaction, including, for example, benzene, toluene, xylene, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, methylene chloride, dichloroethane, chloroform, acetic acid, and the like.
The reaction is conducted in such a way that a compound (VIII) is reacted with a reaction-corresponding amount of an amine compound (IX) or, alternatively, using one of them in a somewhat excessive amount, preferably in the presence of an acid catalyst such as p-toluenesulfonic acid, adipic acid, oxalic acid, pyridine hydrochloride, acetic acid or the like. Depending on the reaction conditions, the reaction is advantageously carried out with removing water out of the system, by adding water-absorbing agents such as potassium hydroxide, Molecular Sieves, etc. or by using Dean-Stark Trap (azeotropic dehydrate apparatus). The temperature for the reaction is usually under room temperature but may be set to azeotropic or reflux temperature depending on the reaction conditions.
The reduction of Schiff base is carried out by adding a reducing agent such as a metal hydride complex (e.g., sodium borohydride, lithium borohydride, sodium cyanoborohydride, and sodium triacetoxyborohydride), borane, or the like in a former step reaction solution.

The compounds of the present invention are useful as orally-applicable GPIIb/IIIa receptor antagonists, especially platelet aggregation inhibitor, including, for example, medicines for ameliorating ischemic cardiac disorders (anxiety stenocardia, acute myocardial infarction), and also for prevention of the following secondary complications, postoperative re-obstruction and re-stenosis following coronary artery bypass or PTCA, as well as for promotion of coronary thrombolysis and prophylaxis of re-obstruction following coronary thrombolysis, etc.); as adminicula in cardiosurgery operations or in vascular surgery operations; as medicines for ameliorating cerebrovascular disorders (transient ischemic attack (TIA), cerebral infarction, subarachnoid hemorrhage (vascular twitch), etc.); and as medicines for ameliorating peripheral artery disorders (chronic arterial obstruction, etc.).
Since the compounds of the present invention have especially useful as a prodrug of compounds in our previous application (an unexamined published Japanese patent application No. 8-333342) and are therefore useful as medicines for ameliorating the above-mentioned disorders not only by parenteral administration such as, for example, intravascular injection but also by peroral administration. In addition, since plasma residence time of Compound A is prolonged by the administration of the compounds of the present invention as a prodrug, the pharmaceutical effects of the compounds of the present invention is long acting, and the clinical usefulness of the compounds is high. Moreover, the toxicity of the compounds of the present invention is much lower than that of conventional compounds.
The platelet aggregation-inhibiting effect of the compounds of the present invention and usefulness as the prodrug have been confirmed by the following test methods:

Ex Vivo Platelet Aggregation-Inhibiting Activity in Cynomolgus Monkeys
Cynomolgus monkeys that had been lightly anesthetized by intramuscular administration of ketamine hydrochloride were fixed on a work-bench, and a sample compound of the present invention dissolved or suspended in a methylcellulose solution was administered into the stomach via a stomach tube at a dose of 1 mg/kg. Before the administration and after the administration at a predetermined period of time, 3 ml (containing 1/10 times by volume of sodium citrate) of the blood was collected from the animal through the femoral vein. From the blood, platelet-rich-plasma (PRP) was obtained according to the method of De Marco et al's (see J. clin. Invest., 77, 1272-1277, 1986). The PRP was adjusted at 3.times.10.sup.8 /ml with an automatic blood cell counter (MEK-5158 Model, produced by Nihon Koden Co.) before use. Then, 20 .mu.M of ADP and 10 .mu.g/ml of bovine tendon-derived collagen (produced by Niko Bioscience Co.) as triggers to cause the aggregation of the platelets. The degree of the aggregation of the platelets was measured with a platelet aggregation meter (NBS Hematracer 801, produced by Niko Bioscience Co.). The platelet aggregation-inhibiting activity of the tested compound was represented by the inhibition percentage (%) relative to the maximum aggregation percentage of each animal before the addition of the test compound.
The test results are shown in Table 2 together with the results of the Compound A which is the active body of the compounds of the present invention.

As shown in the above results, the compounds of the present invention showed excellent platelet aggregation-inhibiting ratio even in comparison with the active body compound A. In addition, the platelet aggregation-inhibiting ratio in the case of the prodrug compound of the present application was excellently maintained after 9, 12, and 24 hours after the administration, which confirmed that the compound shows sufficient sustainment of the effect.
Incidentally, as described in our previous application, the active body compound in the present application has excellent effect to inhibit binding of GPIIb/IIIa to fibrinogen and thus it per se has platelet aggregation-inhibiting effect. Accordingly, it is clear that the compounds of the present invention, after absorption in viva, is metabolized to become active body compound shown above as the results of metabolic test of an active body in plasma and shows platelet aggregation-inhibiting effect based on the effect to inhibit binding of fibrinogen to GPIIb/IIIa.
