Description

BACKGROUND OF INVENTION

The compounds described in this invention as well as their non-toxic salts and pharmaceutical compositions containing them are useful for the treatment of hypertension and congestive heart failure. These compounds are also useful as lipid lowering agents.

The renin-angiotensin system plays a well-defined role in cardiovascular homeostasis [Ocain, T. D. et al (1991) Drugs of the Future 16, 37-51]. Angiotensinogen is converted to angiotensin I by the enzyme renin. Angiotensin I is then acted upon by angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) to form Angiotensin II (A II). A II possesses many crucial properties including vasoconstriction, aldosterone release, and water retention and is implicated as the cause of high blood pressure in a number of species including man. These hypertensive responses are result of A II acting at specific receptor sites. Compounds which are able to compete with A II for these receptor sites but do not elicit agonistic receptor responses can be expected to counteract (anagonize) the hypertensive effects of A II.

E. E. Allen et al describe 4-oxo-quinazolines in EP 0411766 A. D. A. Roberts et al describe quinoline ethers in EP 0412848 A. D. J. Carini et al in U. S. Pat. No. 4,880,804 describe N-substituted benzimidazoles. P. Chakravarty et al disclose similar imidazole structures in EP 0401030 A where the phenyl aromatic ring is replace by a seven membered heterocycle. E. E. Allen et al disclose N-substituted oxopyrimidines in EP 0419048 A. Similar structures are reported in EP 0424317 A by P. Herold et al.

Our invention differs from the above mentioned prior art in that we disclose non-peptidic amino substituted nitrogenous 6 membered heterocycles fused to 5 or 6 membered aromatic rings. The non-peptidic A II antagonists disclosed in the above mentioned prior art are either oxo-quinazolines, quinoline ethers, benzimidazoles, fused heterocyclic imidazoles or oxo-pyrimidines.

PROCESS OF INVENTION

The compounds of general formula 1 can be prepared as described in scheme 1. The 4-chloroquinazoline 2 can be reacted with the aminomethylbiphenyl 3 in the presence of a base such as sodium acetate or potassium carbonate in tetrahydrofuran or tetrahydrofuran/dioxane at room temperature to reflux. The 2-haloquinazoline 4 (X=Cl) can be converted to 1 by the addition of a nucleophile such as an amine, methanol or water under acid or base catalysis. ##STR7##

Alternately compounds 4 can be prepared as shown in scheme 2. The bromophenylquinazolines 5 can be prepared by reacting the 4-chloroquinazoline with p-bromobenzylamine, followed by protection of the benzylic nitrogen with a suitable protecting group as described by T. W. Greene, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, John Wiley & Sons, 1981. Conversion of 5 to its Grignard reagent, followed by the reaction of this with the oxazoline shown using the procedure of A. I. Meyers, et. al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 97, 7383, 1975, yields 6. Conversion of the oxazoline 6 to its corresponding acid, ester and tetrazole can be carried out using the procedures described by Carini et. al. U.S. Pat. No. 4,880,804. ##STR8##

The preparation of compounds 3 shown in scheme 1 has been disclosed by Carini et. al. U.S. Pat. No. 4,880,804, EP 0324377, EP 0323841, EP 0253310.

The 4-chloroquinazoline 2a (where X=H) can be synthesized as shown in scheme 3. This preparation was described by W. B. Lutz et. al. U.S. Pat. No. 3,266,990. ##STR9##

The 4-chloroquinazolines 2b and 2c (where X=Cl and CF.sub.3) can be prepared as described in scheme 4. Reaction of the substituted anthranilic acid 7 with urea in refluxing pyridine yields the quinazolinediones 9. Reaction of the analogous anthranilamide 8 with trifluoroacetamide yields the 2-trifluoromethylquinazolones 10a. Reaction of 9 or 10a with POCl.sub.3 in the presence of dimethylaniline (DMA) using the procedure reported by T. H. Althius and H. J. Hess (for 9 to 2b where R.sup.1 =6-OMe and R.sup.2 =7-OMe); J. Med. Chem., 1977, 20, 146, yields the 4-chloroquinazolines 2b or 2c respectively. Alternately this transformation can be carried out by the procedure described by N. A. Lange et al (for 9 to 2b where R1=R2=H); J. Amer. Chem. Soc., 1930, 52, 3696. ##STR10##

The preparation of 2-methyl-4-chloroquinazoline 2d has been described by E. S. Hand et al; Can. J. Chem. 1984, 62, 2570. This procedure can also be used to convert the 2-ethyl-4-quinazolone 10b reported by N. A. Dolgova et al; Izv. Akad. Nauk. Kaz. SSSR Ser. Khim., 1989. #2, 26, to the 4-chloroquinazoline 2e. ##STR11##

The thienopyrimidine compounds 12 are prepared as shown in schmeme 5 using the same reaction conditions as those described in scheme 1. ##STR12## The preparation of the starting 4-chlorothienpyrimidine 11 is described in scheme 6. Reaction of 3-amino-2-carboxamidethiophene with urea led to the thienopyrimidinedione 14. Similar reaction with trifluoroacetamide led to the 2-trifluoromethylpyrimidone 15. These materials were converted to 11a and 11b using POCl.sub.3, catalysed with dimethylaniline (DMA). ##STR13##

Substitution of pentafluoropropanamide for trifluoroacetamide in schemes 4 and 6 leads to the formation of compounds 16 and 17. Using these starting materials in schemes 1 and 5 provides compounds 18 and 19. ##STR14##

Replacement of the aminomethylbiphenyl compounds 3 in schemes 1 and 5 with compounds 20 and 21 leads to the formation of the substituted quinazolines 22 and 23, and the substituted thienopyrimidines 24 and 25. ##STR15##

The preparation of this amino ester 20 is described in scheme 7. ##STR16## Treatment of the methoxyphenyloxazoline 26 with 2-lithiothiophene leads to the substituted thiophene 27. Methylation using n-BuLi and methyl iodide followed by acid hydrolysis leads to the 2-substituted benzoic acid. Esterification and bromination leads to 29 which is treated under Gabriel conditions to generate the desired amine 20. The amino ester 30 is prepared as illustrated in scheme 8. The commercially available 2-biphenylcarboxylic acid 31 is nitrated using a mixture of concentrated nitric acid in acetic acid (1:1.9) to yield the nitro-acid 32 previously reported by S. A. Glover et al, J. Chem. Soc. Perkin I, 1981, 842. Esterification followed by reduction over palladium yields the desired amino ester 30. ##STR17##

The high affinity of the compounds for the angiotensin II receptor was established using a rat adrenal receptor binding assay, measuring the displacement of radiolabeled angiotensin II from the receptor, described as follows: Anesthetize male Sprague-Dawley rats (300-400 g body weight) with CO.sub.2 and sacrifice by cervical dislocation. Dissect adrenal glands and keep in ice-cold sucrose buffer. (0.2M sucrose, 1 mM EDTA, 10 mM Trizma base, pH=7.2). Remove medulla by squashing. Mince the cortex, rinse and homogenize in a chilled ground glass tissue grinder with 15 mL sucrose buffer. Centrifuge at 3000.times.g for 10 min. (Sorvall RCSC centrifuge, SS34 rotor 6200 rpm). Decant supernatant through gauze. Centrifuge combined supernatants at 12000.times.g for 13 min. (Beckman ultracentrifuge, 80Ti rotor, 13000 rpm). Centrifuge the supernatant from the previous step at 102000.times.g for 60 min. (Beckman ultracentrifuge, 80Ti rotor, 38200 rpm). All steps are carried out at 4.degree. C. Resuspend the pellet in 0.5 mL assay buffer (50 mM Tris HCl, 5 mM MgCl.sub.2, 0.2% BSA (proteasefree), pH=7.4, 25.degree. C.). Store on ice. Determine membrane protein by Lowry or Bradford assay with BSA as standard. The binding assay is performed in triplicate, in 12.times.75 mm plastic test tubes or in 96-well plate (final volume of 0.25 mL). Add 140 mL assay buffer. Add 10 mL cold A II (to give final concentrations of 10.sup.-10 -10.sup.-7 M for standard curve and 10.sup.-4 M for nonspecific binding), compounds (e.g., for final concentrations of 25 and 100 mM or 1 mM, 10 nM and 100 nM) in 50% DMSO, or 50% DMSO as a control. Add 50 mL membrane suspension (e.g., 10 mg protein). Preincubate for 30 min at 25.degree. C. Add 50 ml .sup.125 I-A II which has been prepared as shown below (final concentration=1 nM). Incubate for 35 min at 25.degree. C. Stop the incubation by adding 1 mL ice-cold buffer (assay buffer without BSA). Filter with GF/C filters on cell harvester (filters are presoaked in the assay buffer containing 1% polyethyleneimine). Rinse assay tubes 3.times. with 5 mL cold buffer (assay buffer without BSA). Cut and deposit the filter discs into test tubes and count on gamma counter for 1 min. Adjust the specific activity of .sup.125 I-A II purchased from New England Nuclear to 500 mCi/nmole by adding cold A II in water. Calculate the quantities of hot A II and the cold A II needed and make the dilution. Aliquot, seal tight, and store frozen until needed. Calculate the concentration of the total A II (hot+cold) after dilution. On the day of assay, thaw the frozen aliquot and adjust the volume to give a concentration of 5 pmole/mL (or 0.25 pmole/50 mL) with assay buffer (+protease-free BSA). For final concentration of 1 nM .sup.125 I-A II in the assay, add 50 mL (or 0.25 pmole) per test tube to a final volume of 250 mL. The results of these binding assays are reported as the inhibitory concentration of the test compound necessary to achieve fifty percent displacement of radiolabeled angiotensin II from its receptor (IC.sub.50), or the percent displacement of binding of A II at its receptor at 10.sup.-8 M concentration of test compound (% I). All the examples cited in this invention displayed significant inhibition of A II binding in this assay. Typically these compounds displayed an IC.sub.50 in this assay of less than or equal to 150 .mu.M.

In accordance with their ability to antagonize angiotensin II, the compounds of this invention show antihypertensive action in the following A II-infused rat model. Rats are anesthetized with Dial-Urethane (0.60 mL/kg, ip) and the trachea cannulated with PE 240. Either one femoral artery and both femoral veins or the carotid artery and the corresponding jugular vein are cannulated with PE 50. If the jugular vein is cannulated, two cannulas are placed in the one vein. The initial portion of the duodenum (just distal to the stomach) is cannulated with PE 50 via a small midline incision. Arterial pressure and heart rate are measured from the arterial cannula. Ten to 15 min are allowed following surgery for stabilization of arterial pressure. Ganglion blockade is then produced by intravenous administration of mecamylamine at 3 mg/kg (1 mL/kg of a 3 mg/mL solution). Ganglion blockade causes a fall in arterial pressure of about 50 mmHg. Mecamylamine is given every 90 min throughout the remainder of the experiment. An A II infusion is then begun into the other venous cannula at 0.25 mg/kg/min (at 9.6 uLmin). The A II infusion returns arterial pressure to or slightly above the control level. Once arterial pressure has stabilized with the A II infusion, baseline values for mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate are taken. The test compound, suspended in methyl cellulose, is then administered via the duodenal cannula at 0.1, 3 or, 30 mg/kg in a volume of 1 mL/kg. Mean arterial pressure and heart rate values are tabulated at 15, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180, 210, and 240 min after administration of the test compound. For example, the product of Example 36 administered at 10 mg/kg id lowered the A II dependent blood pressure by an average of 45% one half hour post-administration.

As illustrated above the compounds of this invention are effective A II antagonists and therefore are useful for treating hypertension. They are also of value in the management of acute and chronic congestive heart failure, primary and secondary pulmonary hyperaldosteronism, secondary hyperaldosteronism, primary and secondary pulmonary hypertension, hypertension associated with oral contraceptive use, vascular disorders such as migraine, Raynaud's disease, luminal hyperphasia and the atherosclerotic process, renal diseases or renal complications of other diseases or therapies such as proteinuria, glomerulonephritis, glomerular sclerosis, scleroderma, diabetic nephropathy, end stage renal disease, renal transplant therapy and others. These compounds will also be useful in the treatment of left ventricular dysfunction, diabetic retinopathy, Alzheimers disease, in the enhancement of cognition, in treatment of elevated intraoccular pressure, and in the enhancement of retinal blood flow. These compounds will also be useful as antidepressants and anxiolytics and in the prevention or treatment of restenosis following angioplasty. The application of the compounds of this invention for these and similar disorders will be apparent to those skilled in the art.

The usefulness of these compounds as lipid lowering agents was assessed using cholesterol absorption in a cholesterol/cholic acid-fed rat model which is described as follows. Newly arrived rats are housed for 5 days in a room with reversed light/dark cycle and fed pelleted rat chow (Purina 5001). The food is removed, and the rats are placed on a daily 4 h/day feeding schedule (beginning at 9:00 AM) with normal chow for 7 days. After acclimation (total of 12 days) and randomization based on weight, dosing with drugs and feeding of cholesterol/cholic acid is initiated. Drug solublized in vehicle (0.1 mL; olive oil, corn oil, 2% Tween 80, or carboxymethyl cellulose) is administered orally through a dosing needle immediately prior to (9:00 AM) and immediately following the 4 h feeding period. Dosing with drugs and feeding of the cholesterol/cholic acid diet is repeated for 4 days. On the morning of the 5th day, rats are sacrificed (decapitation), blood is collected and the livers are removed, weighed and stored frozen (-80.degree. C.). The animals are analyzed for total plasma cholesterol (TPC), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDLC, Sigma kit) and triglycerides (TG) on an Abbott Autoanalyzer. VLDL+LDL cholesterol is calculated by the difference between total and HDL cholesterol. HDL cholesterol/total cholesterol is also calculated. Typically the compounds of this invention show a 50% drop in total cholesterol at doses in the range of 100-200 mg/kg.

As illustrated above the compounds of this invention are effective lipid lowering agents and therefore are useful for treating hyperlipidemia and/or hypercholesterolemia.

Specific procedures are described in the following experimental examples. These examples are given to illustrate the invention and should not be construed as limiting the invention set forth in the appended claims.
