Abstract
The present invention provides a method of treating viral infections by using antiviral substituted indolizino�1,2-b!quinolinone compounds, antiviral substituted indolizino�1,2-b!quinolinone compounds, and pharmaceutical compositions thereof.
Description

SCOPE OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to methods of treating viral infections, antiviral compounds, and pharmaceutical compositions thereof. More specifically, this invention relates to a method of treating viral infections, certain indolizino�1,2-b!quinolinyl derivatives which have antiviral activity and pharmaceutical compositions thereof.
BACKGROUND
Certain 1H-pyrano�3',4':6,7!indolizino�1,2-b!quinolinones are known to have cytotoxic and antiviral activity. Camptothecin is an example of such compounds. It is a water-insoluble, cytotoxic alkaloid produced by Camptotheca acuminata trees indigenous to China and Nothapodytes foetida trees indigenous to India. Camptothecin and its close congeners are known to inhibit eukaryotic topoisomerase I. In fact, the cytotoxic and antitumor activity of camptothecin and its close congeners results from inhibition of eukaryotic topoisomerase I (Cancer Res. 1988, 48, 1722; Molec. Pharmacol. 1988, 34, 755). Compounds that are related in structure to camptothecin but do not inhibit eukaryotic topoisomerase I are not cytotoxic to mammalian cells and have no antitumor activity (J. Med. Chem. 1988, 32, 715; Cancer Res. 1989, 49, 1465; Cancer Res. 1989, 49, 4358).
A number of investigators have shown that camptothecin possesses antiviral activity. However, although camptothecin has demonstrated antiviral activity in in vitro tissue culture systems, camptothecin and its close analogs that have a hydroxylactone moiety cannot be considered as useful in vivo antiviral agents because they undesirably inhibit mammalian topoisomerase I, as well as host cell DNA replication, and are cytotoxic to mammalian cells. Furthermore, camptothecin is not an attractive candidate for drug development as an antiviral agent because of unacceptable dose-limiting toxicity, unpredictable toxicity, and poor aqueous solubility, and/or unacceptable shelf life stability.
There is a need for new antiviral agents. Substituted indolizino�1,2-b!quinolinones that lack the a-hydroxylactone moiety of camptothecin have been shown to be non-cytotoxic to mammalian cells and to lack antitumor activity (Ann. Rev. Pharmcol. Toxicol. 1977, 17, 117; J. Med. Chem. 1989, 32, 715). This is because these compounds do not contain the essential structural features required to inhibit eukaryotic topoisomerase I. However, recently we have found that certain substituted indolizino�1,2-b!quinolinones lacking the a-hydroxylactone moiety do have antiviral activity but not the undesirable cytotoxicity of camptothecin. Thus, such substituted indolizino�1,2-b!quinolinones are useful for treating viral infections.

Some compounds used in the method for treating viral infections according to the present invention are known. The publications listed herein discussing the preparation of such compounds are incorporated herein by reference. The compounds of the present invention can be prepared by several means from known starting materials or by adding the appropriate substituent to the starting materials used in published synthetic methods for making camptothecin. The preferred synthetic methods for preparing the inventive compounds are outlined in the following reaction flow charts.
In general, the inventive compounds are prepared by opening the lactone ring of camptothecin or a camptothecin derivative which may have the desired R.sup.7 -R.sup.11 substituent to obtain an 8-methyl-7-(1-oxopropyl)indolizino�1,2-b!quinolin-9(11H)-one. Alternatively, the lactone ring may be opened and then the R.sup.7 -R.sup.11 substituents introduced. In yet another alternative method, an existing R.sup.7 -R.sup.11 group is modified to obtain the desired compound. Once the lactone ring is opened, the resulting X and Y groups may be further modified as needed to make the subject compounds.
Starting materials are commercially available or can be made by published methods. Camptothecin, 10-hydroxycamptothecin and 9-hydroxycamptothecin are natural products. Camptothecin and 10-hydroxycamptothecin are available from sources in the People's Republic of China. A 9-hydroxycamptothecin compound which can be used as starting material for making some of the inventive compounds is described in Published Japanese Patent Application No. 59-51,289. The syntheses of 9- and 12-nitrocamptothecins are described by Wall, et al. (J. Med. Chem. 1986, 29, 2358). A total synthesis of camptothecin is described by Wall, et al., J. Med. Chem. 1980, 23, 554. The 1980 Wall, et al. synthesis can be used as a means to introduce one or more R.sup.7 -R.sup.11 substituents into the compounds of Formula I. This involves modifying the Wall synthesis at the appropriate step in a manner which puts in place the desired substituent, then continuing with the described synthesis.
The ring-opening reaction is illustrated by Scheme 1. For the sake of convenience, all reaction schemes shown herein are illustrated with compounds which are substituted with --H at R.sup.7 -R.sup.11. However, these methods also apply to compounds of the present invention having any other combination of R.sup.7 -R.sup.11 substituents as defined herein above, including compounds in which one or more substituents may require protection during chemical reactions and deprotection thereafter, as is well-known to those of ordinary skill in the art. ##STR33##
Compounds of formula 1 are converted to compounds of formula 2 by heating the compounds in a high boiling, preferably unreactive, solvent such as N,N-dimethylformamide or triglyme (triethylene glycol dimethyl ether).
As shown in Scheme 2 the keto group of compounds of formula 2 can be reduced to give the corresponding hydroxy compounds 3 from which the halo compounds 4 can be derived. The keto group also can be converted to an oxime (compounds 5) which can in turn be reduced to give the primary amino compounds 6. The keto group also can be converted to a ketal group such as a 1,3-dioxolane (compounds 7, which are useful intermediates for further transformations). The hydroxyl group of compounds 3 can also be acylated to produce esters, carbonates, and carbamates (8) or phosphorylated to produce phosphates and phosphonates (9) wherein R.sup.20 and R.sup.21 are groups convertible into R.sup.14 and R.sup.15 respectively, by either deprotection or further elaboration by well-known methods. ##STR34##
As illustrated in Scheme 3, dehydration of alcohols 3 gives alkenes 10 which can be hydroxylated to diols 11. Oxidative cleavage of the diols generates aldehydes 12 which may be covalently solvated by water or an alcoholic solvent to produce compounds of formula 13. Hydride reduction of compounds of formula 12 and 13 give the primary alcohols 14. ##STR35##
Also derived from camptothecins are the a-hydroxy acids 15 which are formed by hydrogenolytic cleavage of the lactone ring as shown in Scheme 4. ##STR36##
Some ring substituents may be labile to the conditions used in the preferred method of making compounds 2 as given in Scheme 1. To make compounds which are unstable under those conditions, the sequence set out in Scheme 5 can provide access to certain of those compounds or provide intermediates for making other compounds. ##STR37##
More specifically, the carbonyl group of compounds 16 is first protected as a ketal (17), and then the pyridine ring is reduced to give compounds 18, for example with sodium cyanoborohydride in an acidic solvent such as acetic acid. Finally, oxidation of compounds 18, for example by iodobenzene diacetate, gives the 2-hydroxy ketals 19 which along with the keto compounds 20 derived from the ketals by acid hydrolysis can be used to make compounds with other substituents as illustrated in Scheme 6. ##STR38##
The compounds in Scheme 6 are prepared either by alkylation (compounds 21) or acylation (compounds 22, 23, and 24) of the 2-hydroxy ketones 20 or by replacement of the 2-hydroxy group in the ketals (19) via the triflates (25). Cyanation of the triflates following the method of Kosugi, M., et al, Chem. Lett. 1981, 69 gives compounds 26 which are hydrolyzed to compounds 27. Catalytic hydrogenation of the cyano group of compounds 26 gives aminomethyl ketals 28 which upon hydrolysis gives the ketones 29.
Alternatively, starting with the triflates (25), a carbonyl group can be introduced onto the ring, for example by the procedure of Cacchi, S., et al, Tetrahedron Lett. 1986, 27, 3931. If an amine or alcohol is used, the corresponding amides (30) or esters (32) are obtained which are then hydrolyzed to the respective keto compounds 31 and 33. Reduction of the esters 32 with a hydride gives the primary alcohols 34 which upon hydrolysis produce the keto alcohols 35 which can be acylated to give carboxylates, carbonates and carbamates or phosphorylated to give phosphates or phosphonates by methods similar to those used for preparing such derivatives from compounds 3. Aldehydes (compounds 36) can be made by oxidizing the alcohols 34 using a mild oxidant which gives the aldehyde in preference to the acid (for example, MnO.sub.2). Deprotection gives the keto aldehydes 37.
Similarly, the triflates are converted to vinyl ethers 38 following the method of Cabri, W., et al. (J. Org. Chem. 1990, 55, 3654), and then compounds 38 are hydrolyzed to diketones 39. Selective hydrolysis of the enol ether function in compounds 38 produces the 2-keto compounds that can be reduced to secondary alcohols from which the ketal groups can be removed and the alcohol function acylated or phosphorylated as described for compounds 3.
Introduction of an amino group at the 2-position is accomplished by hydrolyzing esters 32, converting the resulting acids to acid halides (acid chlorides), treating the acid halides with sodium azide and heating those products followed by treatment with water to form the amines (40) which upon deblocking gives compounds 41. These amines can be alkylated (42), sulfonylated (44), or acylated (46) by known means and then deprotected to compounds 43, 45, and 47, respectively.
Compounds with a substituent at the 1-position that cannot be made by the method of Scheme 1 can be made by using the activating effect of the 2-hydroxy group in compounds 19; the hydroxy group may be retained in the product or removed. These preparations are illustrated in Scheme 7. ##STR39##
Halogenation of compounds 19 is accomplished by standard means to produce 1-halo ketals 48 which are cleaved to the corresponding ketones 49. Cyano ketals 50 are prepared using the iodides (48) in the cyanation reaction described for the synthesis of compounds 26. Cleavage of compounds 50 gives compounds 51, or alternatively, the hydroxy function can be removed from 50 by converting the compounds to the corresponding triflates 52 and then reducing them to compounds 53 by the method of Cacchi, S. et al., Tetrahedron Lett. 1986, 27, 5541. Hydrolysis of ketals 53 gives ketones 54.
The conversion of compounds 19 to compounds 55 is accomplished using tetramethyldiaminomethane and an acid. The dioxolane protecting group can then be hydrolyzed to obtain the keto compounds 56.
Methods for making compounds with different groups at the 7-position are illustrated in Scheme 8. ##STR40##
The hydroxy compounds 57 are made as described by Sugasawa, T., et al., Chem. Pharm. Bull. 1974, 22, 771. The triflates (58) are prepared in the usual manner. Reduction to compounds 59 is carried out by the same method used for compounds 52. Cyanation of the triflates to give compounds 60 uses the method employed to prepare compounds 26. Alkoxyvinylation of the triflates to give compounds 61 is carried out as in the preparation of compounds 38; acid hydrolysis of the vinyl ethers gives the ketones 62 which upon reaction with diazomethane by the method of Kametani, T., et al. (Heterocycles 1975, 3, 167) give methyl derivatives 63 which are reduced by hydrides to the alcohols 64. Coupling of the triflates with 3-dialkylaminopropyne by the method of Echavarren, A. M. and Stille, J. K. (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1988, 110, 1557) gives compounds 65 which are catalytically hydrogenated to compounds 66. Vinylation of the triflates by the procedure of Chen, Q.-Y. and Yang, Z.-Y. (Tetrahedron Lett. 1986, 27, 1171) gives compounds 67 which are catalytically hydrogenated to ethyl compounds 68. Carbonylation of the triflates in the presence of an amine or an alcohol by the procedure used to make compounds 30 and 32 leads to amides 69 and esters 70, respectively. As described for compounds 62, compounds 70 are methylated with diazomethane to give derivatives 71 which then are reduced to alcohols 72 by hydrides. Displacement of the triflate function from compounds 58 by thiols gives sulfides 73 which are oxidized to sulfoxides 74.
Compounds with substituents in the 12-position are prepared as illustrated in Scheme 9. ##STR41##
12-Hydroxymethyl compounds 76 are prepared by the method of Miyaska, T. et al. (Heterocycles 1981, 16, 1713) using ferrous sulfate, hydrogen peroxide and methanol with sulfuric acid. These alcohols are acylated or phosphorylated as described for compounds 3 to produce carboxylates, carbonates and carbamates, or phosphates and phosphonates. Similarly, 12-alkyl compounds 77 are prepared by the method of Miyasaka, T. et al. (U.S. Pat. No. 4,399,282). Oxidation of compounds 78, for example, with hydrogen peroxide in acetic acid, gives the N-oxides 79 which upon heating with tosyl chloride in N,N-dimethylformamide gives the 12-chloro compounds 80 that can be converted to many other compounds. Heating of the chloro compounds with arylols, such as phenol, gives the 12-aryloxy compounds 81 which upon deprotection give the ketones 82; if, however, an aminomethylarene is included in the reaction, the products are compounds 83 which upon hydrolysis give keto compounds 84. The chloro substituent of compounds 80 can be replaced with an iodo group (85) by heating with potassium iodide in acetic acid containing some acetic anhydride. The iodo derivatives are easily used in various coupling reactions similar to those carried out with triflates 25 and 58. Cyanation gives compounds 86 which are deblocked to ketones 87 or are reduced to aminomethyl compounds 88 which give ketones 89 upon hydrolysis. Likewise, propynylamines 90 can be produced and then deprotected to compounds 91 or catalytically hydrogenated to compounds 92 and 94 which are hydrolyzed to keto compounds 93 and 95, respectively. Heating compounds 85 with sodium acetate in acetic acid gives the 12-hydroxy compounds 96 which can be alkylated using either base and alkyl halides or diazoalkanes to give 12-alkoxy compounds 97 which upon deprotection afford ketones 98. The 12-hydroxymethyl compounds 76 can be protected and then activated for displacement reactions by conversion to a sulfonate (99), for example, a mesylate. Cyanide displacement on compounds 99 gives the ketals 100 which upon hydrolysis give 12-cyanomethyl ketones 101. The cyano ketals can also be reduced to aminoethyl compounds 102 that give ketones 103 after hydrolysis. Treatment of sulfonates 99 with alcohols in the presence of bases gives ethers 104 which can be converted to keto ethers 105.
The reactions illustrated in Scheme 9 for the 12-hydroxymethyl compounds 76 could likewise be applied to hydroxymethyl compounds 34 to produce derivatives corresponding to compounds 99 through 105.
As shown in Scheme 10, compounds 107, the open ring form of compounds 106, which are described in co-pending U.S. Ser. No. 07/839,823, are acylated or phosphorylated as described for compounds 3 to give compounds 108 and 109, respectively. ##STR42##

Assays
The assay used to test the compounds of the present invention for antiviral activity was taken from the literature and was modified in well-known ways to adapt it to currently available technology. A generalized description of the assay follows.
Assay Procedure
Well plates were seeded with the appropriate cells at a concentration of 1.times.10.sup.5 cells per well suspended in 0.5 mL of Earle's Minimum Essential Medium (EMEM) containing 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and antibiotic and antimycotic solution. After cells were 80-90% confluent (24 hours), old medium was removed and washed with Hank's buffered saline solution (HBSS). Cells were then infected for 1 hour at 37.degree. C. with 100-200 plaque forming units per well of a herpes simplex virus suspended in 250 mL HBSS. Following adsorption, the following were added:
A) 250 mL/well 2.times.EMEM containing Human IgG (ca 0.1 mg/mL; Sigma No. G-6763);
B) 250 mL/well EMEM containing 10% FBS and antibiotic/antimycotic solution;
C) 250 mL/well HBSS containing appropriately diluted compound.
After 24-48 hours (optimum time determined by examination of the plaques under microscope), old medium was aspirated off. Each well was stained with a selected stain solution (0.5% crystal violet in MeOH:H.sub.2 O 7:3) and then rinsed with water and air dried and plaques counted. Compound effectiveness was evaluated in terms of percent plaque reduction as compared to untreated, infected controls.
This procedure can be used to test compound efficacy against many viruses besides herpes simplex by simply modifying the cell type used in the first step to match the virus being tested and following the procedure outlined above. Other cell types which could be used in this assay include mouse mammary tumor cells, human lung fibroblasts, sheep chorioplexus cells, and green monkey kidney cells.
Other assays which are useful for determining the antiviral activity of the present compounds include the following types: cell count, clonogenic, cytopathic effect, dish-colony formation, microtiter-growth inhibition, thymidine incorporation and yield reduction. Each of these well-known assays is in the literature and selected assays are available commercially.
Pharmaceutical Compositions and Method of Treatment
The present invention provides a broad variety of compositions prepared from compounds of the present invention. Such compositions have utility for human and veterinary antiviral use, and for treating viral infections in plants, e.g., agricultural or ornamental seeds and plants. Such compositions comprise a carrier which is acceptable for the intended end use together with at least one inventive compound. For example, in veterinary use, the carrier may be a liquid, or spray, or may be formulated in a solid, non-degradeable or degradeable form for insertion in the rumen. For agricultural use, the compound can be mixed with a fertilizer, other microbiocides such as fungicides, or insecticides and the like. The present compounds may also be formulated in powders or sprays for application to plant surfaces.
The pharmaceutical compositions of this invention comprise one or more compounds of the present invention in admixture with an inert pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent. Compositions may contain an effective amount of the inventive compound in one unit, such as in a single pill, capsule, or pre-measured intravenous dose or pre-filled syringe for injection, or, as is frequently the case, the composition may be prepared in individual dose forms where one unit, such as a pill, contains a sub-optimal dose with the user being instructed to take two or more unit doses per treatment. When the composition is presented as a cream, it contains a discrete amount of drug and the user applies an effective amount of the cream one or more times until the disease is in remission or has been effectively treated. Concentrates for later dilution by the end user may also be prepared, for instance for IV formulations and multi-dose injectable formulations.
Carriers or diluents contemplated for use in these compositions are generally known in the pharmaceutical formulary arts. Reference to useful materials can be found in well known compilations such as Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mack Publishing Co., Easton, Pa., 18042, U.S.A.
The nature of the composition and the pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent will, of course, depend upon the intended route of administration, for example, by intravenous and intramuscular injection, parenterally, topically, orally, or by inhalation.
For parenteral administration the pharmaceutical composition may be in the form of a sterile injectable liquid such as an ampule or an aqueous or nonaqueous liquid suspension.
For topical administration the pharmaceutical composition may be in the form of a cream, ointment, liniment, lotion, paste, spray or drops suitable for administration to the skin, eye, ear, nose or genitalia.
For oral administration the pharmaceutical composition may be in the form of a tablet, capsule, powder, pellet, atroche, lozenge, syrup, liquid, or emulsion.
The pharmaceutically acceptable carrier employed may be either a solid or liquid. Exemplary of solid carriers are lactose, kaolin, terra alba, sucrose, talc, gelatin, agar, pectin, acacia, magnesium stearate, mannitol, stearic acid and the like.
Examples of appropriate pharmaceutically acceptable liquid carriers or diluents include: for aqueous systems, water; for non-aqueous systems, ethanol, glycerin, propylene glycol, corn oil, cottonseed oil, peanut oil, sesame oil, liquid paraffins and mixtures thereof with water. For aerosol systems, pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include dichlorodifluoromethane, chlorotrifluoroethylene and compressed carbon dioxide. Also, in addition to the pharmaceutical carrier or diluent, the instant compositions may include other ingredients such as stabilizers, antioxidants, preservatives, lubricants, suspending agents, viscosity modifiers and the like, provided that the additional ingredients do not have a detrimental effect on the therapeutic action of the instant compositions. Similarly, the carrier or diluent may include time delay materials well known to the art, such as glyceryl monostearate or glyceryl distearate alone or with a wax, ethylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, methylmethacrylate and the like.
To obtain a stable water soluble dose form, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a compound of the present invention is dissolved in an aqueous solution of an organic or inorganic acid or base. If a soluble salt form is not available, the inventive compound may be dissolved in a suitable co-solvent or combinations thereof. Examples of such suitable cosolvents include, but are not limited to, alcohol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol 300, polysorbate 80, glycerin and the like in concentrations ranging from 0-60% of the total volume.
It will be appreciated that the actual preferred dosages of the compounds of the present invention used in the pharmaceutical and other compositions of this invention will vary according to the particular complex being used, the particular composition formulated, the mode of administration and the particular site, host and disease being treated. These compounds are active in the concentration ranges of two commercial antiviral drugs, Cytovene (ganciclovir) and Zovirax (acyclovir). For example, the latter is manufactured in 200 mg capsules with instructions for treating herpes simplex viruses by taking one capsule every 4 hours, but not to exceed 5 capsules per day.





In the following Examples, temperature is in degrees Centigrade (.degree.C.). Unless otherwise indicated, all of the starting materials were obtained from commercial sources. 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. These Examples are given to illustrate the invention, not to limit its scope. Reference is made to the claims for what is reserved to the inventors hereunder.
