Substituted aromatic sulfonamides as antiglaucoma agents, compositions and use

This invention relates to novel aromatic sulfonamides useful in the treatment of elevated intraocular pressure. More particularly this invention relates to compounds having the structural formula: ##STR1## wherein A and Y are as hereinafter defined, as well as the pharmaceutically and ophthalmologically acceptable salts thereof. This invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions and the use thereof for systemic and ophthalmic use employing a novel compound of this invention as active ingredient for the treatment of elevated intraocular pressure, especially when accompanied by pathological damage such as in the disease known as glaucoma.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Glaucoma is an ocular disorder associated with elevated intraocular pressures which are too high for normal function and may result in irreversible loss of visual function. If untreated, glaucoma may eventually lead to blindness. Ocular hypertension, i.e., the condition of elevated intraocular pressure without optic nerve head damage or characteristic glaucomatous visual field defects, is now believed by many ophthalmologists to represent the earliest phase of glaucoma.
Many of the drugs formerly used to treat glaucoma proved not entirely satisfactory. Indeed, few advances were made in the treatment of glaucoma since pilocarpine and physostigmine were introduced. Only recently have clinicians noted that many .beta.-adrenergic blocking agents are effective in reducing intraocular pressure. While many of these agents are effective in reducing intraocular pressure, they also have other characteristics, e.g. membrane stabilizing activity, that are not acceptable for chronic ocular use. (S)-1-tert-Butylamino-[(4-morpholino-1,2,5-thiadiazol- 3-yl)oxy]-2-propanol, a .beta.-adrenergic blocking agent, was found to reduce intraocular pressure and to be devoid of many unwanted side effects associated with pilocarpine and, in addition, to possess advantages over many other .beta.-adrenergic blocking agents, e.g. to be devoid of local anesthetic properties, to have a long duration of activity, and to display minimal tolerance.
Although pilocarpine, physostigmine and the .beta.-blocking agents mentioned above reduce intraocular pressure, none of these drugs manifests its action by inhibiting the enzyme carbonic anhydrase and, thereby, impeding the contribution to aqueous humor formation made by the carbonic anhydrase pathway.
Agents referred to as carbonic anhydrase inhibitors block or impede this inflow pathway by inhibiting the enzyme, carbonic anhydrase. While such carbonic anhydrase inhibitors are now used to treat intraocular pressure by oral, intravenous or other systemic routes, they thereby have the distinct disadvantage of inhibiting carbonic anhydrase throughout the entire body. Such a gross disruption of a basic enzyme system is justified only during an acute attack of alarmingly elevated intraocular pressure, or when no other agent is effective. Despite the desirability of directing the carbonic anhydrase inhibitor only to the desired ophthalmic target tissue, no topically effective carbonic anhydrase inhibitors are available for clinical use.
However, topically effective carbonic anhydrase inhibitors are reported in U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,386,098; 4,416,890; and 4,426,388. The compounds reported therein are 5 (and 6)-hydroxy-2-benzothiazolesulfonamides and acyl esters thereof.

The thieno-dihydrothiopyran ring systems are prepared following the reaction schemes outlined below: ##STR6##
The novel compounds of this invention wherein R.sup.13 is hydrogen can be prepared by treating the corresponding 4-oxo compound with triethylsilane in trifluoracetic acid, or from the corresponding carbinol in organic solvent such as acetonitrile with dimethyldichlorosilane and sodium iodide at about 75.degree.-100.degree. C. for about 1 to 4 hours as exemplified below. ##STR7##
Reduction of the oxo compound is best conducted in an inert atmosphere by adding triethyl silane dropwise to a solution of the ketone in the trifluoracetic acid (TFA) at room temperature. The triethylsilane and ketone are used in a molar ratio of about 3:1 to 5:1 preferably 4:1. The mixture is heated at about 60.degree. C. to reflux for about 2 to 6 hours. After cooling the excess TFA is neutralized by addition of aqueous base such as sodium bicarbonate. The aqueous solution is extracted with an inert organic solvent such as ethyl acetate and the extract is dried and evaporated to dryness.
Alternatively, reduction of the oxo compound is also accomplished using boranedimethylsulfide in THF as solvent and heating the mixture at reflux for about 3 hours.
The carbinol is reduced by heating at reflux with the dimethyldichlorosilane and NaI in acetonitrile for about 0.5 to 4 hours followed by quenching with water.
The 7,7-dioxide group in most of the novel compounds is generated by treating a C.sub.1-3 alkanolic, preferably methanolic, solution of the corresponding thiopyran with aqueous OXONE.RTM. ##STR8## at about room temperature for about 12 to 24 hours.
The 4-hydroxy group present in the thiopyran ring of some of the novel compounds is prepared by reduction of the corresponding 4-keto group with a complex metal hydride, such as sodium borohydride. The reduction is conducted in a C.sub.1-3 alkanol, preferably ethanol at about room temperature for about 0.5 to 3 hours.
A free 4-amino group is achieved by hydrolysis of an N-acyl group such as acetyl with a strong acid such as hydrochloric acid in an aqueous alcohol, preferably methanol at about 75.degree. C. to reflux for about 12 to 24 hours.
Reduction of the N-acyl group with borane-dimethylsulfide complex in an ethereal solvent such as THF, diethylether, or 1,2-dimethoxyethane provides an alkylamino as exemplified below by reduction of acetamido to ethylamino. The amide starting materials can be prepared by acylation of the 4-amino compounds. ##STR9##
Alkylamino groups are also available from the corresponding 4-hydroxy compounds by treatment of the 4-hydroxy with toluenesulfonyl chloride in pyridine at about -20.degree. C. to 5.degree. C. for about 3 to 10 hours followed by the addition of an alkylamine at a temperature below about 15.degree. C. followed by warming to about 30.degree.-60.degree. C. for about 5 to 16 hours as shown below: ##STR10##
4-Alkylamines are also prepared from the 4-oxo compounds by the following sheme: ##STR11## In this process a solution of the keto compound in a solvent such as diethylether, THF, 1,2-dimethoxyethane, benzene, toluene or mixtures thereof at about -20.degree. C. to 0.degree. C. is treated quickly with about a one molar excess of an amine of formula R.sup.17 NH.sub.2 followed by titanium tetrachloride dropwise. After about 1 to 5 hours the mixture is filtered and evaporated. The residue is treated with a complex metal hydride, such as sodium borohydride, in excess in a C.sub.1-3 alkanol, preferably methanol, at about room temperature for up to 24 hours. Excess hydride is destroyed with aqueous acid and the product is isolated by standard techniques.
Aromatic ethers are cleaved by standard procedures such as with boron tribromide, pyridine.HCl, C.sub.2 H.sub.5 S.sup.- or the like.
Aromatic dimethylaminomethyl substituents are prepared by standard Mannich reaction procedures.
Compounds with an aminoalkyl function on the carbon adjacent the thiopyran sulfur can be prepared by reduction of the carboxamide to the 6-substituted aminomethyl group followed by oxidation of the sulfur to the 7,7-dioxide. ##STR12##
The synthesis of 6-R.sup.17 R.sup.18 -N-methyl-5,6-dihydro-4H-thieno[2,3-b]thiopyrans via addition of amines to the methylene group of 5,6-dihydro-6-methylene-4H-thieno[2,3-b]thiopyran-2-sulfonamides is illustrative of a general procedure for the preparation of a variety of analogs as outlined below. ##STR13##
The process comprises mixing the two reagents in a C.sub.1-3 alkanol, preferably methanol and agitating the mixture at about 12.degree. to 30.degree. C. preferably about room temperature for about 5 to 24 hours, preferably about 16 hours.
Compounds in which m=0 are prepared by the process described in the attached scheme.
In this process, a 2,2-disubstituted-2-bromoacetate derivative 1 is treated with a 2-mercaptooxazole of the type 2 in a solvent such as ether, THF, CH.sub.3 OH, H.sub.2 O, C.sub.2 H.sub.5 OH, DMF or mixtures thereof at about -20.degree. C. to the reflux temperature of the solvent to yield a 2-(2-mercaptoxazolyl)-2,2-disubstituted acetate 3. In turn, the ester is hydrolyzed to the acid under acid conditions such as aq. HCl, CH.sub.3 COOH, aq. H.sub.2 SO.sub.4 and aq. H.sub.3 PO.sub.4, and basic conditions such as NaOH, KOH, LiOH in solvents such as H.sub.2 O, alcohol, DMF, THF in a temperature range of 0.degree. to the reflux temperature of the solvent.
The resulting acid 4 is then transformed to the N,O-dimethylhydroxamide by treating the acid with carboxyl group activating reagents such as carbonyldiimidazole followed by treatment with N,O-dialkylhydroxylamine such as dimethylhydroxylamine in solvents such as DMF, THF, methylene chloride, or ether.
The hydroxamides 5 are then transformed into furano[2,3-b]dihydrothiophenes 6 by the following 3-step sequence. Reaction of the N,O-dimethylhydroxamides with the Li salt of acetylene or trimethylsilyl acetylene gives rise to acetylenic ketones which are desilylated by treatment with alkanols such as methanol and then cyclized by heating in a solvent such as benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene, xylenes, or mesitylene from 50.degree. to the reflux temperature of the solvent.
The resulting furano[2,3-b]thiophenes are sulfonylated by standard methods such as treatment with sulfuric acid and acetic anhydride in solvents such as CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 at temperatures ranging from -20 to ambient followed by treatment of the sulfonic acids with halogenating reagents such as PCl.sub.5 to form the sulfonyl chlorides which are reacted with NH.sub.4 OH in acetone or ethyl acetate to form the sulfonamides 7.
The reduction of the carbonyl can be achieved by standard hydride reduction methods and is best effected by the reaction of NaBH.sub.4 in an alcoholic solvent at temperatures ranging from 0.degree. to ambient to give the hydroxyl derivatives 8.
Compounds of the types 7 and 8 can be converted to the 4-alkylamino compounds by standard methods.
Preparation of the 6,6-dioxides are also carried out by treating an alcoholic solution of the dihydro furano[2,3-b]thiophenes with aqueous OXONE.RTM.. ##STR14##
The novel pharmaceutical formulations of this invention are adapted for oral administration such as tablets, capsules or the like; for nasal administration, especially in the form of a spray; for injection, in the form of a sterile injectable liquid; or for topical ocular administration in the form of solutions, ointments, solid water soluble polymeric inserts, or gels.
This invention is particularly concerned with formulations adapted for topical ocular administration for the treatment of glaucoma and other stages of elevated intraocular pressure and contain about 0.1% to 15% by weight of medicament, especially about 0.5 to 2% by weight of medicament, the remainder being comprised of carriers and other excipients well known in the art.
The medicament in the novel topical ocular formulations comprises one of the novel compounds of this invention either alone or in combination with a .beta.-adrenergic blocking agent such as timolol maleate or a parasympathomimetic agent such as pilocarpine. In such combinations the two active agents are present in approximately equal amounts.
The novel method of treatment of this invention comprises the treatment of elevated intraocular pressure by the administration of a novel compound of this invention or a pharmaceutical formulation thereof. Of primary concern is the treatment by topical ocular administration of about 0.1 to 25 mg and especially 0.2 to 10 mg of such compound per day, either by single dose or on a 2 to 4 dose per day regimen.

Acetic anhydride (45 ml) was added dropwise, keeping the temperature below 45.degree. C. by cooling in an ice bath as necessary. The resulting clear solution was stirred for 11/2 hour at ambient temperature and then was poured into ice and water. The white solid product was collected, combined with comparable product from a second 0.083 mol run, and dried at 0.1 mm at room temperature to give 22.4 g. (68%) of product, m.p. 88.degree.-91.degree. C. A sample recrystallized from ether-petroleum ether melted at 90.degree.-93.degree. C.

Solvent was evaporated in vacuo and the residual oil, dissolved in CHCl.sub.3, was washed with 3N HCl, then with H.sub.2 O (3.times.), and dried over sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure and the residue was triturated with hexane to yield 26.0 g, (94%) of the product as an off-white solid, m.p. 62.degree.-66.degree. C.
Step C: Preparation of 5,6-Dihydro-4H-5-(4-methoxybenzyl)-4-oxothieno[2,3-b]-thiopyran
A solution of the product from Step B (25.9 g, 0.08 mol) in dry CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 (85 ml) containing DMF (0.3 ml) was stirred at room temperature while oxalyl chloride (8.0 ml, 0.092 mol) was added dropwise. Stirring was continued for 2.5 hours. The mixture was cooled to -10.degree. C. and a solution of SnCl.sub.4 (4.9 ml, 0.042 mol) in dry CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 (17 ml) was added dropwise at a rate such that the temperature was held below 5.degree. C. After 1 hour at 0.degree. C., H.sub.2 O (45 ml) was added dropwise, the temperature being held below 10.degree. C. The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2. The combined organic phases were washed with saturated NaHCO.sub.3 solution, H.sub.2 O, saturated NaCl solution, and dried over Na.sub.2 SO.sub.4. Evaporation of the solvent in vacuo left 24.3 g, (quantitative) of the product as a viscous, dark amber oil that slowly solidified on standing. An analytical sample was obtained by passage through a short column of silica gel, using 85 hexane:15 ethyl acetate as the eluant. Evaporation of the eluate gave a white crystalline solid, m.p. 91.degree.-93.degree. C.
Step D: Preparation of 5,6-Dihydro-4H-5-(4-methoxybenzyl)-4-oxothieno[2,3-b]thiopyran-2-sulfonamide
To a stirred solution of the product from Step C (9.55 g, 0.033 mol) in dry CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 (75 ml) was added acetic anhydride (10 g, 0.098 mol). The mixture was cooled to -10.degree. C. and concentrated H.sub.2 SO.sub.4 (3.3 g, 0.033 mol) was added dropwise at a rate such that the temperature remained below 0.degree. C. After 2 hours at -10.degree.

Solvent was stripped under reduced pressure and the residue was partitioned between CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 and ice water. The organic phase was dried (MgSO.sub.4) and concentrated to dryness. The residual oily sulfonyl chloride was dissolved in acetone (150 ml), cooled to 5.degree. C., and treated with concentrated NH.sub.4 OH (75 ml). After 30 minutes, acetone was stripped in vacuo and the off-white solid product was collected from the aqueous residue, washed with water, and dried; 8.9 g (73%), m.p. 187.degree.-190.degree. C.

A mixture of the product from Step D (7.4 g, 0.02 mol), triethylsilane (11.2 ml, 0.07 mol) and trifluoroacetic acid (30 ml) was stirred and heated to refluxing for 5 hours. The cooled mixture was neutralized with saturated NaHCO.sub.3 solution and extracted with ethyl acetate (3.times.). The washed and dried ethyl acetate extract was concentrated in vacuo to obtain an oily solid residue that was suspended in ethanol (250 ml). Sodium borohydride (0.75 g, 0.02 mol) was added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. During this period, all of the solid had dissolved. After cooling in an ice bath, the pH of the solution was adjusted to 8 with 1N HCl. Ethanol was stripped in vacuo and the residue was extracted into ethyl acetate. Evaporation of the washed and dried extract left a mixture of crude 5,6-dihydro-4H-5-(4-methoxybenzyl)thieno[2,3-b]thiopyran-2-sulfonamide and 5,6-dihydro-4H-4-hydroxy-5-(4-methoxybenzyl)-thieno[2,3 -b]thiopyran-2-sulfonamide. The mixture was separated by chromatography on a silica gel 60 column, eluting with 97CHCl.sub.3 /3 CH.sub.3 OH/0.3 H.sub.2 O. The fully reduced product came off the column first and was crystallized from CHCl.sub.3 to obtain 1.8 g (36%), m.p. 152.degree.-155.degree. C. An analytical sample melted at 153.degree.-155.degree. C. after recrystallization from CHCl.sub.3 /CH.sub.3 OH. The recovery of the alcohol was 2.2 g, corresponding to 30% of the starting ketone.
Step F: Preparation of 5,6-Dihydro-4H-5-(4-hydroxybenzyl)thieno[2,3-b]thiopyran-2-sulfonamide
5,6-Dihydro-4H-5-(4-methoxybenzyl)thieno[2,3-b]thiopyran-2-sulfonamide (3.3 g, 9.3 mmol) was suspended in dry CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 (150 ml), cooled in a dry ice-acetone bath, and treated with 1M BBr.sub.3 in CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 (27 ml). After 48 hours at room temperature, the mixture was quenched in ice, neutralized with saturated NaHCO.sub.3 solution and extracted with ethyl acetate (3.times.). The combined organic phases were washed (saturated NaCl solution), dried (MgSO.sub.4), and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residual crude product was chromatographed on a silica gel 60 column, eluting with 96 CHCl.sub.3 /4 CH.sub.3 OH/0.4H.sub.2 O to obtain 1.0 g (32%) of a dark yellow solid that was characterized by nmr.
Step G: Preparation of 5,6-Dihydro-4H-5-(4-hydroxybenzyl)thieno[2,3-b]thiopyran-2-sulfonamide-7,7-dioxide
The product from Step F (1.0 g, 2.9 mmol) was dissolved in CH.sub.3 OH (30 ml) and a solution of OXONE (2.7 g, 4.4 mmol) in H.sub.2 O (25 ml) was added dropwise. The mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 hours and then was filtered. After washing the filter cake thoroughly with CH.sub.3 OH, the filtrate was neutralized with saturated NaHCO.sub.3 solution and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residual mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. Evaporation of the washed and dried extract in vacuo gave 1.2 g of the product as a yellow glass. A sample was purified by Column chromatography on silica gel 60, eluting with 95CHCl.sub.3 /5CH.sub.3 OH/0.5H.sub.2 O. The solid product melted at 180.degree.-186.degree. C. dec.

The product from Step G (500 mg, 1.34 mmol), dimethylamine hydrochloride (300 mg, 3.68 mmol), 37% aqueous for aldehyde (0.13 ml) and glacial acetic acid (4 ml) were stirred and heated at 100.degree. C. for 20 hours. The cooled mixture was neutralized with saturated NaHCO.sub.3 solution and then was extracted repeatedly with ethyl acetate. Evaporation of the washed and dried extract left a mixture of the crude product and starting material as an off white glass. This was combined with a comparable mixture from a second 1.34 mmole run and separated by chromatography on a silica gel column, eluting with 90 CHCl.sub.3 /10 CH.sub.3 OH/1 H.sub.2 O. The product (300 mg.) came off the column last; 100 mg (10%) of the starting material was recovered. The product was purified further by conversion to the hydrochloride salt by treating a solution in ethanol with ethanolic HCl. Evaporation of the ethanol and trituration of the residue with n-propanol afforded 240 mg of the salt. This material was purified by chromatography on a silica gel column, eluting with 93 CHCl.sub.3 /7 CH.sub.3 OH/0.7 concentrated NH.sub.4 OH. The purified base was reconverted to the hydrochloride salt in ethanol by treatment with ethanolic HCl. Concentration of the solution in vacuo yielded 95 mg (7.6%) of desired product as a pale yellow glass after drying at 60.degree. C. and 0.1 mm.

n-Butyllithium (9.4 ml, 0.015 mol of a 1.6M solution in hexane) was added dropwise over 15 minutes at -78.degree. C. under nitrogen to a stirred solution of 5,6-dihydro-6-dimethylaminomethyl-4H-thieno[2,3-b]-thiopyran in tetrahydrofuran (25 ml). After 1/2 hour at -78.degree. C., anhydrous SO.sub.2 was bubbled over the surface of the solution until the mixture was essentially neutral. Then the addition of SO.sub.2 was stopped and the yellow solution was stirred at -78.degree. C. for 1 hour. The solvent and excess SO.sub.2 were removed in vacuo and a light tan foam remained. This residue was taken up in 50 ml of water containing sodium acetate (1.8 g, 0.022 mol) and hydroxylamine-o-sulfonic acid (2.26 g, 0.02 mol) was added. The neutral solution was stirred at room temperature over night. Excess NaHCO.sub.3 was added and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (3.times.25 ml). The combined ethyl acetate solutions were extracted with 1M KOH (2.times.25 ml), washed with ether, acidified with excess 6N HCl and again extracted with ethyl acetate (2.times.50 ml) and with chloroform (50 ml). The combined extracts were washed with water, dried over Na.sub.2 SO.sub.4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to obtain 0.77 g of pale yellow solid, m.p. 148.degree.-152.degree. C.

Step J: Resolution of trans-5,6-dihydro-4H-4-ethylamino-6-methylthieno[2,3-b]thiopyran-2-sulfonamide-7,7-dioxide
A mixture of the title compound (2.8 g, 0.0086 mol) and di-p-toluoyl-D tartaric acid monohydrate (0.85 g, 0.0021 mol) in n-propanol (300 ml) was heated to boiling and the hot solution filtered through a filter aid pad with a layer of charcoal (Norite and Darco). The filtrate was concentrated by boiling to a volume of about 75 ml and then allowed to crystallize. After standing overnight, the crystals were filtered off and the material recrystallized twice more from n-propanol (75 ml) to yield a 2:1 salt of free base to acid. The combined mother liquors from these recrystallization were saved for Step B. The salt was then treated with a saturated solution of NaHCO.sub.3 and the mixture extracted with ethyl acetate (5.times.). The organic extracts were dried, filtered and concentrated to dryness to yield 0.6 g of free base. The hydrochloride salt was prepared from 5.6N HCl ethanol and crystallized from CH.sub.3 OH-isopropanol to yield 0.53 g of the (+) isomer; [.alpha.].sub.D.sup.24 =8.23 (C, 0.9 CH.sub.3 OH); mp 283.degree.-285.degree.
