The compounds of the formula (I) can be prepared, for example, by Process A, Process B or Process C described below.
Process A
A compound represented by the formula ##STR3## wherein n, A and R.sub.2 are as defined above is reacted with a compound of the formula ##STR4## wherein R.sub.1 and l are as defined above, and m is 0, 1 or 2.
The reaction of Process A is carried out usually in a solvent which is not particularly limited insofar as the solvent does not participate in the reaction. Examples of suitable solvents are ethers, such as dimethyl ether, diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran and dioxane, nonprotonic solvents, such as acetonitrile, chloroform and dichloromethane, petroleum ether, ligroin, etc. The solvent is used usually in at least 2 times, preferably about 20 times, the amount of the compound II. The proportions of the compound (II) and the sulfonic acid compound (III) to be used are determined suitably. Usually at least one mole, preferably 1 to 1.5 moles, of the compound (III) is used per mole of the compound (II). The reaction proceeds advantageously usually at about -10.degree. to about 60.degree. C., preferably about 0.degree. C. to room temperature.
The compound (II) to be used as one of the starting materials in the above process can be prepared usually from a known compound (VI) and diazomethane by the following reaction. ##STR5## wherein n, R.sub.2 and A are as defined above.
The reaction of the compound (VI) with diazomethane is conducted usually in a solvent. Examples of useful solvents are ethers, such as dimethyl ether, diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran and dioxane, aprotic solvents, such as acetonitrile, chloroform and dichloromethane, petroleum ether, ligroin, etc. It is generally favorable to use at least about 2 moles of diazomethane per mole of the compound (VI). The reaction proceeds advantageously at about -10.degree. C. to room temperature. While the compound (II) obtained by the above reaction can be isolated by a usual method of separation such as chromatography or recrystallization, the reaction mixture can generally be used as it is for the reaction of Process A without isolation.
Process B
A compound represented by the formula ##STR6## wherein X, n, A and R.sub.2 are as defined above is reacted with a metallic salt of sulfonic acid represented by the formula ##STR7## wherein R.sub.1 and l are as defined above.
The reaction of Process B can be conducted advantageously in the absence of any solvent or in the presence of a suitable solvent which will not participate in the reaction. Examples of useful solvents are lower alcohols, such as methanol and ethanol, and polar solvents, such as acetone, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane and dimethylformamide. The proportions of the compound (IV) and the compound (V) to be used are suitably determined. Usually at least one mole, preferably 1 to 1.5 moles, of the compound (V) is used per mole of the compound (IV). The reaction temperature, which can be determined also suitably, is advantageously room temperature to the boiling temperature of the solvent. Various metals are usable for metallic salts of the compound (V). Examples of preferred metals are silver, copper and like alkali metals and alkaline earth metals.
The compound (IV), one of the sulfonate derivatives of the present invention, used as one of the starting materials in Process B is a novel compound, which can be prepared by a known process, for example, by the following reaction ##STR8## wherein R.sub.2, A, n and X are as defined above.
Further the compound of the formula (IV) wherein X is iodine, namely compound (IV"), can also be prepared, for example, by the following reaction. ##STR9## wherein n, R.sub.2 and A are as defined above, and M is sodium, potassium or like alkali metal.
The reaction of the compound (II) with the compound (VII) is conducted usually in a solvent which will not participate in the reaction. Examples of useful solvents are diethyl ether, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran and like ethers. Usually at least one mole, preferably 1 to 1.5 moles, of the compound (VII) is used per mole of the compound (II). The reaction temperature is generally -20.degree. to 50.degree. C., preferably 0.degree. C. to room temperature.
The reaction of the compound (IV') with the compound (VIII) is conducted usually without using any solvent or in a solvent which will not participate in the reaction. Exemplary of useful solvents are methanol, ethanol and like alcohols, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane and like polar solvents, acetone, etc. The proportions of the compound (IV') and the compound (VIII), which may be determined suitably, are generally equimolar to achieve favorable results. The reaction temperature, which may be determined also suitably, is usually about 0.degree. C. to the boiling point of the solvent, preferably room temperature to about 60.degree. C. The compound (IV) or (IV") obtained from either reaction can be isolated for use in Process B or is usable in the form of the resulting reaction mixture without isolation.
Process C
A hydroxyacetylcyclohexane derivative represented by the formula ##STR10## wherein R.sub.2 is as defined above is reacted with benzenesulfonyl chloride represented by the formula ##STR11## wherein R.sub.1 and l are as defined above.
The reaction of Process C is conducted in a suitable solvent in the presence of a base serving as a dehydrochlorinating agent. Examples of useful solvents are those which will not participate in the reaction, such as dichloromethane, dichloroethane, chloroform and like hydrocarbon halides. Examples of useful bases are those usually used as dehydrochlorinating agents, such as pyridine, triethylamine, N,N-diisopropylethylamine, 1,8-diazabicyclo(5,4,0)-7-undecene (D.B.U.), etc. The base is used usually in an amount of 1 to 1.5 times based on the compound (X). The proportions of the hydroxyacetylcyclohexane derivative (IX) and benzenesulfonyl chloride (X) are not limited particularly but can be determined suitably. The compounds are used usually in the former to latter ratio of about 1:1 in mole, preferably in an equimolar ratio. The reaction proceeds satisfactorily at a temperature usually of about -10.degree. to about 50.degree. C., preferably about -5.degree. to about 5.degree. C.
The hydroxyacetylcyclohexane derivative (IX), one of the starting compounds to be used for Process C can be prepared by heating the compound obtained by Process A and represented by the formula ##STR12## wherein R.sub.2 is as defined above in an aqueous solution of sulfuric acid. While the compounds of this invention include isomers of cis form and trans form, those of trans form only can be prepared by reacting the compound (XI) with sodium alkoxide in an alcohol to convert the cis form to a trans form (XII), brominating the same in usual manner and hydrolyzing the resulting bromine (XIII) in usual manner, for example in formic acid. Thus there is obtained an acetylcyclohexane derivative (IX'). This process is schematically illustrated below. ##STR13##
The compound of this invention prepared by Process A, B or C described above can be isolated by a usual method of separation, such as column chromatography, recrystallization or vacuum distillation.
The compounds of the invention have inhibitory activity on esterases and on chymotripsin and antilipemic activity and are useful as antilipemic agents, anti-inflammatory agents and immunity controlling agents. The present invention includes antilipemic compositions containing such novel sulfonate derivatives.
Hyperlipidemia is known to be a risk factor leading to various adult diseases, such as arteriosclerosis, cardio- and nephro-vascular diseases, diabetes, etc. The drugs for preventing or alleviating hyperlipidemia must have high safety because such drugs are likely to be used for a prolonged period of time in view of the nature of the disease. However, reports have been made on various side effects of nicotinic acid and derivatives thereof, dextran sulfate, and clofibrate and derivatives thereof heretofore widely used as antilipemic agents. Nicotinic acid and its derivatives, for example, produce side effects, such as pruritus and cutaneous flushing due to vasodilatation, gastrointestinal disorders, abnormalities in liver function and glucose intolerance. These drugs have many side effects further because they must be given at a large dose of at least 3 g/day.
Clofibrate, which is typical of widely used antilipemic agents, has recently been reported as having a carcinogenic activity as a serous side effect. Although animal tests or immunological investigations are being carried out by research institutes, the ultimate conclusions still remain to be made, so that clofibrate is clinically in limited use in various countires. In addition to the carcinogenic activity, clofibrate causes an increased sterol discharge, which reportedly increases the likelihood of gallstone formation. Thus the drug is likely to have another side effect.
The antilipemic compositions of the invention are characterized in that they are superior in antilipemic effect to nicotinic acid and derivatives thereof, dextran sulfate, and clofibrate and derivatives thereof heretofore known, very low in toxicity and usable for very wide applications with safety and assure higher safety than the conventional antilipemic agents.
The sulfonate compounds of the invention can be formulated into pharmaceutical preparations suited for various routes of administration. Examples of such preparations are tablets, capsules, granules, powders and liquids for oral administration, and suppositories for non-oral administration.
Examples of useful excipients for preparing tablets, capsules, granules and powders are lactose, sucrose, starch, talc, magnesium stearate, crystalline cellulose, methyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, glycerin, sodium alginate and gum arabic. Also useful for such preparations are binders, such as polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl ether, ethyl cellulose, gum arabic, shellac and sucrose, glazing agents, such as magnesium stearate and talc, and usual coloring agents and disintegrators. Tablets can be coated by a known method. Useful liquid preparations are in the form of aqueous or oily suspensions, solutions, syrups, elixir, etc. These preparations are produced by usual methods.
Examples of useful base materials for preparing suppositories are cacao butter, polyethylene glycol, lanolin, fatty acid triglyceride, witepsol (fat, trade mark of Dynamit Nobel A.G. of Germany), etc.
The dose of the drugs according to the invention can not be specifically defined but varies with the symptoms, body weight, age, etc. of the patient. Usually the active component of such drugs is given in an amount of about 50 to about 1500 mg/day for adults at a time or in two to four divided doses. The dose unit such as tablet or capsule preferably contains about 10 to about 1500 mg of the active component.

The mixture is then poured into an ice-hydrochloric acid mixture, and the resulting mixture is subjected to extraction with 50 ml of chloroform. The extract is washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and then distilled in a vacuum to remove the solvent. The resulting oily product is crystallized from petroleum ether, and the crystals are recrystallized from ethanol to afford 1.5 g of trans-2-(benzenesulfonyloxy)-1-(4-isopropylcyclohexyl)-1-ethanone (Compound 25) melting at 48.degree. to 49.degree. C. (yield: 81%).
EXAMPLE 14
Compounds 27, 29, 31, 33, 35, 37 and 38 are prepared in the same manner as in Example 13.
Compounds of this invention are tested for pharmacological activities by the following methods.
1. Esterase Inhibiting Activity
A 10 micromole quantity of methyl butyrate in a 50% ethanol solution is added as a substrate to a specified amount of buffer solution (pH 8.0) containing 0.1 mole of trishydrochloric acid. To the mixture is further added a 50% ethanol solution of the compound of the invention, immediately followed by addition of an esterase solution prepared from a purified microsome fraction of the liver of a rat (adjusted to hydrolyze 9 micromoles of methyl butyrate at 37.degree. C. in one hour). The mixture is reacted at 37.degree. C. for 60 minutes.
After the reaction, alkaline hydroxylamine is added to the mixture to form a hydroxamic acid derivative of methyl butyrate, and a ferric salt is added to the derivative. The resulting red color is colorimetrically determined (at a wavelength of 540 nm) to determine the amount of remaining methyl butyrate. The esterase inhibiting ratios of the present compound at least at three concentrations are plotted as ordinate, and the logarithms of the concentrations as abscissa to obtain a line, which gives the 50% inhibition concentration (IC.sub.50).
2. Chymotripsin Inhibiting Activity
Chymotripsin (0.1 unit) serving as an enzyme solution is added to a specified quantity of buffer solution (pH 8.0) containing 0.1 mole of trishydrochloric acid. To the mixture is further added a 50% ethanol solution of the compound of the invention. The mixture is reacted at 37.degree. C. for 20 minutes.
On completion of the reaction, 10 micromoles of N-acetyl-L-thyrosine (ATEE) serving as a substrate is added to the mixture, and the resulting mixture is reacted at 37.degree. C. for 30 minutes.
After the completion of the reaction, the amount of remaining ATEE is determined by the same hydroxamic acid method as above. The percent chymotripsin inhibition is given by ##EQU1## wherein A is the amount of hydrolzed esters in the reaction system not containing the compound of the invention, and B is the amount of hydrolyzed esters in the reaction system containing the present compound.
3. Antilipemic Effect
Seven-week-old male Wister rats weighing 200 to 220 g are used, 5 rats in each group.
The compound of the invention (100 mg) is dissolved in 5 ml of olive oil. The olive oil containing the compound is orally given to the rat with a probe at a dose of 5 ml/kg. Two hours thereafter, 6 ml of whole blood is withdrawn from the descending aorta of the rat under ether anesthesia with a syringe containing heparin. The blood is centrifuged at 5.degree. C. and 3000 r.p.m. to obtain the plasma. The plasma collected is used for determining the triglycerides content, using a triglycerides measuring kit (trade mark "Triglycerides-B Test Wako," product of Wako Junyaku Co., Ltd., Japan). Olive oil containing no compound is similarly given to a control group, while no treatment is conducted for a normal group. The triglycerides content in the plasma is also determined for these groups in the same manner as is the case with the test groups.
The percent hyperlipidemia inhibition achieved by the present compound is given by ##EQU2## in which A is the triglycerides content of the control group, B is the triglycerides content of the normal group, and C is the triglycerides content of the group to which the present compound is given.
4. Acute Toxicity
Six-week-old male Wister rats weighing 180 to 200 g are used, 5 rats in each group. The present compound is suspended in a 5% aqueous solution of gum arabic, and the suspension is orally given to the rats. For one week after the start of the test, the rats are checked evey day for general toxicity symptoms, body weight and death to determine the LD.sub.50 value.
The test results are shown in Table 6, in which TG stands for triglycerides inhibition.
