Substituted quinoline-2-carboxamides, their preparation and their use as pharmaceuticals, and intermediates

The invention relates to substituted quinoline-2-carboxylic acid amides, to their preparation and their use as inhibitors of prolyl 4-hydroxylase, and to their use as pharmaceuticals for the treatment of fibrotic diseases, as well as to intermediates in their preparation.
Compounds which inhibit the enzymes prolyl and lysyl hydroxylase have the effect of very selective inhibition of collagen biosynthesis by influencing collagen-specific hydroxylation reactions. In the course thereof, protein-bound proline or lysine is hydroxylated by the enzymes prolyl or lysyl hydroxylase. If this reaction is suppressed by inhibitors, a nonfunctional hypohydroxylated collagen molecule which can be released by the cells into the extracellular space only in a small amount is formed. The hypohydroxylated collagen furthermore cannot be incorporated into the collagen matrix and is very readily degraded proteolytically. As a consequece of these effects, the amount of collagen deposited extracellularly is reduced overall.
Inhibitors of prolyl hydroxylase are therefore suitable substances in the treatment of diseases in which the deposition of collagens contributes decisively to the clinical picture. These include, inter alia, fibroses of the lung, liver and skin (scleroderma and scarring after burns, injuries and surgical operations) and atherosclerosis.
It is known that the enzyme prolyl hydroxylase is inhibited effectively by pyridine-2,4- and -2,5-dicarboxylic acid (K. Majamaa et al., Eur. J. Biochem. 138 (1984) 239-245). However, these compounds are active as inhibitors in the cell culture only at very high concentrations (Tschank, G. et al., Biochem. J. 238 (1987) 625 to 633).
Prodrugs of pyridine-2,4(5)-dicarboxylates are also known. These are described in EP-A-0 590 520 and EP-A-0 562 512.
N-Oxalylglycines as inhibitors of prolyl 4-hydroxylase are known from J. Med. Chem. 1992, 35, 2652 to 2658 (Cunliffe et al.), and EP-A-0 457 163 (Baader et al.).
3-Hydroxypyridine-2-carboxylic acid N-(carboxymethyl)amide is known from G. Yolles et al. in: Bull. Soc. Chim. Fr. 1965, 8, 2252 to 2259.
Hydroxyisoquinoline- and hydroxycinnolinecarboxylic acid glycylamides are known from Biochem. Soc. Trans. 1991, 19, 812 to 815 (Franklin et al.).
EP-A-0 661 269 describes substituted heterocyclic carboxylic acid amides and their use as inhibitors of prolyl 4-hydroxylase and as inhibitors of collagen biosynthesis.
The object was to search for even more active inhibitors of prolyl hydroxylase and for other inhibitors of collagen biosynthesis.
It has now been found that a selection of the compounds included in EP-A-0 661 269, that is to say the quinoline-2-carboxylic acid amides having an OH function in the ortho position relative to the amide function, show a surprisingly high inhibition of prolyl 4-hydroxylase in cell cultures.

1.i1.) reacting quinoline-2-carboxylic acids of the formula II (R.sup.11 =H) with the amino esters of the formula III to give the amide esters of the formula IV, or
1.i2.) reacting quinoline-2-carboxylic acid esters of the formula II (R.sup.11 =lower alkyl) under the conditions of aminolysis to give the compounds of the formula IV;
1.ii) liberating the compounds of the formulae Ib and V from the esters of the formulae IV and VI; and 1.iii) obtaining the compounds of the formulae Ib and VI from the compounds of the formulae V and IV by splitting off the hydroxyl-protective group R.sup.10, and if appropriate 1.iv) oxidizing the compounds of the formula Ib, IV, V or VI to give compounds of the formulae Ia, IVa, Va or VIa.
Suitable protecting groups (PG=Protecting Groups) such as are familiar to the person of ordinary skill in the art are, in particular, benzyl, p-methoxybenzyl, 3,4-dimethoxybenzyl, alkyl, methoxymethyl (MOM), methylthio, benzyloxymethyl (BOM), t-butyloxymethyl, 2-methoxyethoxymethyl (MEM) and tetrahydropyranyl (THP).

Reagents which can be used for activation of the carboxylic acids are the substances known to one of ordinary skill in the art, such as thionyl chloride, oxalyl chloride, pivaloyl chloride, chloroformic acid ester derivatives or N,N'-carbonyldiimidazole. The activated derivatives of the compounds of the formula II are reacted in situ, after their preparation, with the amide derivatives of the formula III.
A suitable condensing agent is, for example, the combination of N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, 1-hydroxy-1H-benzotriazole and N-ethylmorpholine.

2.iii) The compounds of the formula Xa are reacted with a reagent R.sup.10 -X to give the hydroxyl-protected compounds of the formula XI.
2.iv) The compounds of the formula XI are oxidized to give the compounds of the formula II, preferably under the conditions of the haloform reaction. ##STR7##

6-Aryloxyquinoline and 6-arylsulfonyl derivatives are accessible by nucleophilic aromatic substitution on 4-halo-2-nitrotoluenes XV and subsequent oxidation to give the corresponding 5-aryloxy (5-arylsulfonyl)-2-nitrobenzoic acids XVII, cf. equation 3.2. ##STR9## Another possibility is provided by nitration of appropriately substituted toluenes, benzoic acids, benzaldehydes or acetophenones. This method is preferably used if the substituents present direct the nitration exclusively or predominantly into the 2 position, cf., for example, equation 3.3. ##STR10##
The compounds of the formula XIII and XVI were reacted with an oxidizing agent, preferably with KMnO.sub.4 in an aqueous alkaline medium, to give the 2-nitrobenzoic acid derivatives.
The compounds of the formula I are inhibitors of prolyl 4-hydroxylase. The inhibition of this enzyme was determined as described by Kaule and G6nzler in Annal. Biochem. 184, 291 to 297 (1990).
The compounds of the formula I according to the invention furthermore have valuable pharmacological properties and show, in particular, an antifibrotic activity.
The antifibrotic action can be determined in the model of fibrosis of the liver induced by carbon tetrachloride. For this, rats are treated twice weekly with CCl.sub.4 (1 ml/kg), dissolved in olive oil. The test substance is administered daily, if appropriate even twice daily, perorally or intraperitoneally-dissolved in a suitable tolerated solvent. The extent of the fibrosis of the liver is determined histologically and the content of collagen in the liver is analyzed by hydroxyproline determination--as described by Kivirikko et al. (Anal. Biochem. 19, 249 et seq. (1967)). The activity of the fibrogenesis can be determined by radioimmunological determination of collagen fragments and procollagen peptides in the serum. The compounds according to the invention are active in this model in a concentration of 1 to 100 mg/kg.
The activity of the fibrogenesis can be determined by radioimmunological assay of the N-terminal propeptide of type III collagen or of the N- or C-terminal crosslinking domain of type IV collagen (7s collagen or type IV collagen NC.sub.1) in the serum.
For this purpose, the hydroxyproline, procollagen III peptide, 7s collagen and type IV collagen NC concentrations in the liver of
a) untreated rats (control)
b) rats to which carbon tetrachloride was administered (CCl.sub.4 control)
c) rats to which first CCl.sub.4 and then a compound according to the invention was administered
were measured (this test method is described by Rouiller, C., experimental toxic injury of the liver; in The Liver, C. Rouiller, Volume 2, 5. 335 to 476, New York, Academic Press, 1964).
An activity of the compounds according to the invention can furthermore be detected in the following systems.
Inhibition of hepatic prolyl 4-hydroxylase in vivo:
This model is used for detection of acute inhibition of prolyl 4-hydroxylase in vivo. For this, the test substance and the corresponding vehicle are administered (intraperitoneally, intravenously, perorally) to rats of both sexes (healthy and with induced fibrosis of the liver) and, after administration of the substance, .sup.14 C-L-proline (250 .mu.Ci/kg of body weight) is administered intraperitoneally. .sup.14 C-L-Proline (250 .mu.Ci/kg of body weight) is then administered again intraperitoneally. Finally, the animals are exsanguinated under pentobarbital anesthesia and the liver is removed. The hepatic collagen was purified by pepsin digestion and fractional ammonium sulfate precipitation in accordance with published protocols (Ref. 1, 2). The purified liver collagen was hydrolyzed and the content of .sup.14 C-hydroxyproline and .sup.14 C-proline was determined by amino acid analysis by means of ion exchange chromatography. Inhibition of prolyl 4-hydroxylase can be seen from a reduction in the quotient .sup.14 C-hydroxyproline/�.sup.14 C-hydroxyproline+.sup.14 C-proline!. 2,2'-Dipyridyl is used as the reference substance. (Ref. 1: Chojkier, M. 1986. Hepatocyte collagen production in vivo in normal rats. J. Clin. Invest. 78: 333-339 and Ref. 2: Ogata I. et al. 1991. Minor contribution of hepatocytes to collagen production in normal and early fibrotic livers. Hepatology 14: 361-367).
Inhibition of prolyl 4-hydroxylase in cell cultures:
The following cell types are used for testing prolyl 4-hydroxylase inhibitors in cell cultures: Normal human dermal fibroblasts (NHDF), rat liver epithelial cells (Ref. 1) and primary fat storing cells from the rat liver (Ref. 2). For this, the cells are cultured in the presence of inhibitors. At the same time, the collagen newly synthesized during this period is labeled metabolically by 4-.sup.3 H-L-proline and .sup.14 C-proline. The influence of the test substances on the degree of hydroxlyation of the collagen is then determined in accordance with the method of Chojkier et al. (Ref. 3). 2,2'-Dipyridyl is employed as the reference substance.

A new method for determining the extent of proline hydroxylation by measuring changes in the ration of �4-.sup.3 H!:�.sup.14 C! proline in collagenase digests. Anal. Biochem. 108: 385-393).
The compounds of the formula I can be used as medicaments in the form of pharmaceutical preparations which comprise them, if appropriate with tolerated pharmaceutical excipients. The compounds can be used as medicines, for example in the form of pharmaceutical preparations, which comprise these compounds as a mixture with a pharmaceutical, organic or inorganic excipient suitable for enteral, percutaneous or parenteral administration, such as, for example, water, gum arabic, gelatin, lactose, starch, magnesium stearate, talc, vegetable oils, polyalkylene glycols, petroleum jelly and the like.
For this purpose, they can be administered orally in doses of 0.1 to 25 mg/kg/day, preferably 1 to 5 mg/kg/day, or parenterally in doses of 0.01 to 5 mg/kg/day, preferably 0.01 to 2.5 mg/kg/day, in particular 0.5 to 1.0 mg/kg/day. In severe cases, the dosage can also be increased. However, lower doses are also sufficient in many cases. These data relate to an adult weighing about 75 kg.
