Substituted heterocyclic derivatives useful as platelet aggregation inhibitors

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention
This invention pertains to substituted heterocyclic derivatives which inhibit platelet aggregation.
Related Art
Fibrinogen is a glycoprotein present as a normal component of blood plasma. It participates in platelet aggregation and fibrin formation in the blood clotting mechanism.
Platelets are cellular elements found in whole blood which also participate in blood coagulation. Fibrinogen binding to platelets is important to normal platelet function in the blood coagulation mechanism. When a blood vessel receives an injury, the platelets binding to fibrinogen will initiate aggregation and form a thrombus. Interaction of fibrinogen with platelets occurs through a membrane glycoprotein complex, known as gpIIb/IIIa; this is an important feature of the platelet function. Inhibitors of this interaction are useful in modulating or preventing platelet thrombus formation.
It is also known that another large glycoprotein named fibronectin, which is a major extracellular matrix protein, interacts with fibrinogen and fibrin, and with other structural molecules such as actin, collagen and proteoglycans. Various relatively large polypeptide fragments in the cell-binding domain of fibronectin have been found to have cell-attachment activity. (See U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,517,686, 4,589,881, and 4,661,111). Certain relatively short peptide fragments from the same molecule were found to promote cell attachment to a substrate when immobilized on the substrate or to inhibit attachment when in a solubilized or suspended form. (See U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,578,079 and 4,614,517).
In U.S. Pat. No. 4,683,291, inhibition of platelet function is disclosed with synthetic peptides designed to be high affinity antagonists of fibrinogen binding to platelets. U.S. Pat. No. 4,857,508 discloses tetrapeptides having utility as inhibitors of platelet aggregation.

Sci. 82, 8057-8061 (1985); Ruggeri et al., Ibid. 83, 5708-5712 (1986); Ginsberg et al., J. Biol.

Injectable preparations, for example, sterile injectable aqueous or oleaginous suspensions may be formulated according to the known art using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents. The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution or suspension in a nontoxic parenterally acceptable diluent or solvent, for example, as a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are water, Ringer's solution, and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed as a solvent or suspending medium. For this purpose any bland fixed oil may be employed including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid find use in the preparation of injectable.
Suppositories for rectal administration of the drug can be prepared by mixing the drug with a suitable nonirritating excipient such as cocoa butter and polyethylene glycols which are solid at ordinary temperature but liquid at the rectal temperature and will therefore melt in the rectum and release the drug.
Solid dosage forms for oral administration may include capsules, tablets, pills, powders, and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound may be admixed with at least one inert diluent such as sucrose lactose or starch. Such dosage forms may also comprise, as in 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 may include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups, and elixirs containing inert diluents commonly used in the art, such as water. Such compositions may also comprise adjuvants, such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, and sweetening, flavoring, and perfuming agents.
While the compounds of the invention can be administered as the sole active pharmaceutical agent, they can also be used in combination with one or more active pharmaceutical agents. When administered as a combination, the therapeutic agents can be formulated as separate compositions which are given at the same time or different times, or the therapeutic agents can be given as a single composition.
In the structures and formulas herein, the bond drawn across a bond of an aromatic ring can be to any available atom on the aromatic ring.
The compounds of formula I can exist in various isomeric forms and all such isomeric forms are meant to be included. Tautomeric forms are also included in the invention. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of such isomers and tautomers are meant to be included as well.
It is also contemplated that Beta amino acids (H.sub.2 N--CHR--CH.sub.2 --CO.sub.2 H) used in this invention may be replaced by Homo Beta amino acids (H.sub.2 N--CH.sub.2 --CHR--CO.sub.2 H).
The compounds listed above may be prepared by standard synthetic methods combined with methods analogous to solution phase peptide synthesis [see: The Peptides: Analysis, Synthesis, Biology (E. Gross and J. Meienhofer, eds.), (Vol. 1-5, Academic Press, New York)], the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference.
Three general synthetic sequences are outlined in Schemes 1-3.
In Scheme I. The aminobenzamidine 1 (i.e., Z is hydrogen) is coupled to an alkanoic, alkenoic (both substituted or not) or alkynoic diacid. An activated form of the diacid is preferentially used. These activated forms include anhydrides, internal anhydride, acid chloride or one of the various activated forms as described in Principles of Peptide Synthesis, Bodansky, 1984, Springer-Verlag, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference. A highly preferred procedure involves condensation of an anhydride (e.g., succinic anhydride 2) with a salt of substituted aromatic 1. The reaction is best conducted in a polar solvent such as methylene chloride, acetonitrile, dioxane, dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide or a mixture of such solvents in the presence of an acid binding agent such as sodium, potassium or cesium carbonate, triethylamine, pyridine, sodium hydride, dimethylaminopyridine, diazabicycloundecene, or a mixture of such agents, at temperatures ranging between 0.degree. C. and 120.degree. C. The final compounds are obtained by coupling of the amidine derivative 3 with a properly protected .beta.-aminoacid. The amide bonds are formed using standard coupling reagents, e.g., dicyclohexylcarbodiimide (DCC), carbonyldiimidazole (CDI), disuccinimidyl carbonate (DSC), benzotriazole-1-yl-oxy-tris-(dimethylamino)-phosphonium hexafluorophosphate (BOP) or isobutyl chloroformate (mixed anhydride method). When the .beta.-amino acid used in the coupling was protected as an ester of the carboxylic acid function (4, W=alkyl, aryl, . . . ), the free acids 5 are obtained by a suitable deprotection method as described by T. H. Greene in "Protective Group in Organic Synthesis", Wiley-Interscience, 1980, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference. ##STR4##
Alternatively, an aminobenzonitrile 6 can be used for condensation with the desired diacid or diacid derivative. In this case, the nitrile can be converted to the amidine initially or at a later stage. When the aminobenzonitrile is used in the condensation reaction (Scheme II), the cyano group of the resulting intermediate 7 is converted to the amidine 8 via the thioimidate in nearly quantitative yield. The thioimidate is formed by first treating the cyano compound with hydrogen sulfide (H.sub.2 S) followed by alkylation with methyl iodide. Next, treatment of the thioimidate with ammonium acetate affords the amidine as the salt (HI). Alternatively, the nitrile 7 can be converted to the amidine 8 by the use of lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide in an inert solvent such as diethyl ether (R. T. Boere et al, J. Organomet. Chem., 331, 161-67, 1987), the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference. The desired compounds are obtained by coupling of the amidine derivative 8 with a properly functionalized .beta.-aminoacid. The amide bonds are formed using standard coupling reagents as described above for Scheme I. ##STR5##
Scheme III illustrates the obtention of derivatives using the amino nitriles as reagents. The cyano group is kept intact as a precursor for the amidine function throughout two amide bond forming steps. The first intermediate 10 is directly engaged in a reaction with the desired .beta.-amino acid. The intermediate 10 is then converted to the benzamidine. A method of choice to produce the amidine function is via the thioimidate procedure as described in Scheme II. It is desirable, in Scheme III, to prepare the intermediate 11 as an ester. The most desirable ester is the t-butyl ester which can be deprotected to the acid by contact with a strong acidic medium as HBr/AcOH or trifluoroacetic acid/dichloromethane. ##STR6##
The Z substituents, (where Z is hydrogen or halogen, or an alkyl radical or alkoxy radical) can be introduced at the aminobenzonitrile stage. The phenyl group can be halogenated using bromine, iodine, or chlorine. The alkyl group can be introduced by low temperature lithium halogen exchange followed by quenching with the appropriate aldehyde [see: W. E. Parham, C. K. Bradsher Acct. Chem. Res. 300 (1982)], the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference. The resultant alcohol can be converted to Z is alkyl hydrogenolysis [Reductions in Organic Chemistry (M. Hudicky, ed.), John Wiley & Sons, New York, 1984]., the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference. Where Z is hydroxy or alkoxy, such substituents can be introduced by low temperature lithium halogen exchange followed by quenching with electrophilic bis(trimethylsilyl) peroxide [(TMSO).sub.2 ] M. Taddei and A. Ricci Synthesis 633-635 (1986)], the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference, which affords the silyl ether. The silyl ether can be converted to the hydroxy derivative by treatment with hydrochloric acid [M. Taddei and A. Ricci ibid] . The hydroxy in the presence of a weak base (K2CO3) and an appropriate alkyl halide [R8-Hal, Allen C. F. and Gates J. W., Org. Synth. Coll. Vol 2 3 140 (1955), the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference.] which will form the ester as well. The ester can be selectively cleaved in the presence of the ether with one equivalent of sodium hydroxide.
For derivatives wherein R.sup.1 is different from hydrogen, such derivatives can be obtained by using an appropriately substituted aminobenzamidine. For example, the 4-methylaminobenzamidine can be reacted with succinic anhydride in a manner similar to the substituted heterocyclic.
Purification of final compounds is by reverse phase high pressure liquid chromatography [High Performance Liquid Chromatography Protein and Peptide Chemistry, F. Lottspeich, A. Henscher, K. P. Hupe, eds.) Walter DeGruyter, New York, 1981, the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference.) or crystallization.
Contemplated equivalents of the general formulas set forth above for the platelet aggregation inhibitors and derivatives as well as the intermediates are compounds otherwise corresponding thereto and having the same general properties wherein one or more of the various R groups are simple variations of the substituents as defined therein, e.g., wherein R is a higher alkyl group than that indicated. In addition, where a substituent is designated as, or can be, a hydrogen, the exact chemical nature of a substituent which is other than hydrogen at that position, e.g., a hydrocarbyl radical or a halogen, hydroxy, amino and the like functional group, is not critical so long as it does not adversely affect the overall activity and/or synthesis procedure.
The chemical reactions described above are generally disclosed in terms of their broadest application to the preparation of the compounds of this invention. Occasionally, the reactions may not be applicable as described to each compound included within the disclosed scope. The compounds for which this occurs will be readily recognized by those skilled in the art. In all such cases, either the reactions can be successfully performed by conventional modifications known to those skilled in the art, e.g., by appropriate protection of interfering groups, by changing to alternative conventional reagents, by routine modification of reaction conditions, and the like, or other reactions disclosed herein or otherwise conventional, will be applicable to the preparation of the corresponding compounds of this invention. In all preparative methods, all starting materials are known or readily preparable from known starting materials.
Without further elaboration, it is believed that one skilled in the art can, using the preceding description, utilize the present invention to its fullest extent.

Additional ammonium formate and/or palladium/C may have to be added if reduction slows. The mixture was refluxed for 4 h. The progress of the reaction was monitored by tlc (chloroform/methanol--10:1; Rf of product .about.0.1). After complete reaction the mixture was filtered through a celite pad and the ethanol removed under reduced pressure. The product was purified by reverse phase chromatography (water/acetonitrile) to result in 1.5 g of amino ester TFA salt. .sup.1 H NMR (d6-DMSO) .delta. 1.09 (t, 3H, J=7.1 Hz), 3.12 (m, 2H, J=8.48, 16.49, 19.31Hz), 4.04 (m, 2H), 4.75 (t, 1H, J=6.9 Hz), 7.60 (dd, 1H, J=5.0, 8.0 Hz), 8.09 (dt, 1H, J=7.9, 8.0 Hz), 8.65 (dd, 1H, J=1.4, 4.9 Hz), 8.76 (d, 1H, J=1.9 Hz).

The mixture was heated for 4 h at 70.degree.-75.degree. C. under nitrogen. The reaction was monitored by HPLC. After cooling, the reaction mixture was filtered through a celite pad and was concentrated in vacuo. The resulting clear oil was triturated with 3.times.50 mL diethylether which was then decanted. The oil was dissolved in 250 mL water and 4 mL trifluoroacetic acid and the solution purified as above. The appropriate fractions were combined to give 8.1 g (68%) of the di-TFA salt. The ratio of the enantiomers was determined to be 5.3:94.7/R:S using a CrownPak CR (+) column.

In-Vitro Platelet Aggregation in PRP
Healthy male or female dogs were fasted for 8 hours prior to drawing blood; then 30 ml whole blood was collected using a butterfly needle and 30 cc plastic syringe with 3 ml of 0.129M buffered sodium citrate (3.8%). The syringe was rotated carefully as blood was drawn to mix the citrate. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) was prepared by centrifugation at 975.times.g for 3.17 minutes at room temperature allowing the centrifuge to coast to a stop without braking. The PRP was removed from the blood with a plastic pipette and placed in a plastic capped, 50 mL Corning conical sterile centrifuge tube which was held at room temperature. Platelet poor plasma (PPP) was prepared by centrifuging the remaining blood at 2000.times.g for 15 minutes at room temperature allowing the centrifuge to coast to a stop without braking. The PRP was adjusted with PPP to a count of 2-3.times.10.sup.8 platelets per mL. 400 uL of the PRP preparation and 50 uL of the compounds solution to be tested or saline were preincubated for 1 minute at 37.degree. C. in a BioData, Horsham, Pa.). 50 uL of adenosine 5' diphosphate (ADP) (50 um final concentration) was added to the cuvettes and the aggregation was monitored for 1 minute.

INHIBITION OF EX VIVO COLLAGEN INDUCED AGGREGATION BY COMPOUNDS OF THE INVENTION
Purpose
The purpose of this assay is to determine the effects of antiplatelet compounds on ex vivo collagen induced platelet aggregation when administered either intravenously or orally to dogs.
Pretreatment (control) blood samples are drawn from either conscious or anesthetized dogs (Beagles) and centrifuged to prepare platelet rich plasma (PRP). Aggregatory response to collagen is measured in a aggregometer and used as Control. Compounds are administered, either intragasterically (either by capsule or stomach tube or intravenously). Blood samples are drawn at predetermined intervals after compound administration, PRP prepared and aggregation to collagen determined. Compound inhibition of aggregation is determined by comparing the aggregation response after compound administration to the pretreatment response. The study is continued for a maximum of 24 hours or until the platelet aggregation returns to control levels. (If aggregation is still inhibited after 7 hours, a blood sample is drawn the following morning and tested.) Duration of activity is determined by the length of time platelet aggregation is inhibited after compound administration.
