Tetrahydropyridine derivatives

Abstract

The compounds of the present invention relates to tetrahydropyridine derivatives and have high affinity and specificity to .sigma. receptors, whereby these are thought to be effective for some psychoses.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to novel tetrahydropyridine derivatives with psychotropic activities.

2. Prior Art

Antidopamine agents such as haloperidol (U.S. Pat. No. 3,438,991) are used as an for the antipsychotic agent. Adverse reactions in the extrapyramidal tract such as delayed dyskinesia are caused by them during long-term therapy. Recently, safer drugs, rimcazole (JP. Pat. Publn. No.55-64,585) and BMY 148021 (GB Patent No. 2,155, 925), which show high affinity to .sigma. receptors but low affinity to dopamine receptors, have been developed as psychotropic drugs. On the other hand, the existence of a binding site of dextromethorphan (DM) in the central nervous system has been reported (J. Musacchio, M. Klein and L. J. Santiago, The Journal of Pharmacology and Therapeutics 247 (2), 424 (1988), High Affinity Dextromethorphan Binding Sites in Guinea Pig Brain; Further Characterization and Allosteric Interactions). DM, which is one of the most popular antitussives, is thought to be effective for ischemic encephalopathy (F. C. Tortella, M. Pellicano and N. G. Bowery, Trips,10(12), 501 (1989), Dextromethophan and neuromodulation: old drug coughs up new activities). It is also thought that the property of .sigma. receptors, which is labeled with [3H]3PPP adopted in the present invention, resembles that of the DM binding site (J. M. Musacchio, M. Klein and P. D. Cano 11, Life Sciences, 45, 1721 (1989) Dextromethorphan and Sigma Ligands: Common Sites but Diverse Effects).

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

This invention relates to novel tetrahydropyridine derivatives with psychotropic activities. Furthermore, these compounds have high affinity and specificity to .sigma. receptors, whereby they are thought to be effective for some psychoses such as depression, mania, and acute and chronic schizophrenia, and cerebral ischemic disease.

1-{3-(1 -Methyl-2-oxo-imidazolidin-1-yl)propy}-4-(4-tolyl)-1,2,5,6-tetrahydropyridine (I a-72) ##STR47##

(1) A mixture of 870 mg of the compound (I a-60) and 8.0 ml of thionylchloride is stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. After removal of the excess reagent under reduced pressure, the residue was washed with Et.sub.2 O and dried under reduced pressure to prepare 1.067 g (Yield: 99.2%) of the compound (V-3) as pale yellow powder.

(2) To a solution of 266 mg of 1-methyl-2-oxoimidazolidine in 5 ml of DMF was added 115 mg of 60% NaH under ice-cooling. After stirring at room temperature for 20 minutes, a solution of 553 mg of the compound (V -3) in 4 ml of DMF was added to the reaction mixture and stirred at room temperature for 90.5 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure and poured into d-HCl. The aqueous layer is made alkaline with NaHCO.sub.3, extracted with CHCl.sub.3 -MeOH (19/1), dried over MgSO.sub.4, and evaporated. The residue is subjected to column chromatography with silica gel, eluting with CHCl.sub.3 -MeOH (19/1) to prepare 491 mg of the compound (I a-72).

EVALUATION OF BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY

Experiment

After the decapitation of rats, the objective tissues were rapidly removed and each was weighed. Each tissue was homogenized with twenty-fold amount of ice-cold 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.8), homogenized, and centrifuged at 40,000.times.g for 10 minutes. The supernatant was removed and pellets were then resuspended in the buffer and recentrifuged. The procedure is repeated 3 times. Then these obtained samples were freeze-dried in liquid nitrogen and preserved at -80.degree. C. On the test day, the sample was thawed at room temperature and centrifuged at 40,000.times.g for 10 minutes, the pellets were then suspended in an incubation buffer and used as the receptor preparation. The preparation was added to the mixture containing the labelled ligand and the test drug, and filtered through Whatman GF/C filters and washed to terminate the reaction. Radioactivity on the filters was determined by a liquid scintillation counter and Ki value was calculated.

1. .sigma. receptor

Sigma receptor binding was initiated by the addition of the receptor preparation (cortex tissue, 0.7 mg protein/ml) to a mixture containing 5 nM of [.sup.3 H]3PPP [3-hydroxyphenyl-N-(1-propyl)-piperidine] and the test compound dissolved in 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.8). Incubation was carried out at 25.degree. C. for 90 minutes. Specific sigma receptor binding was defined as the difference in amount of [.sup.3 H]3PPP bound to the tissue in the presence or the absence of 10 .mu.M haloperidol.

2. DA2 receptor

DA2 receptor binding was initiated by the addition of the receptor preparation (striatal tissue, 0.3 mg protein/ml) to a mixture containing 0.2 nM of [.sup.3 H]spiroperidol and the test compound dissolved in 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer containing 100 mM-NaCl and 5 mM-KCl (pH 7.4). Incubation was carried out at 37.degree. C. for 10 minutes. Specific DA2 receptor binding was defined as the difference in amount of [.sup.3 H]spiroperidol bound to the tissue in the presence or the absence of 10 .mu.M haloperidol.

3. 5HT2 receptor

5HT2 receptor binding was initiated by the addition of the receptor preparation (cortex tissue, 0.5 mg protein/ml) to a mixture containing 1 nM of [.sup.3 H]spiroperidol and the test compound dissolved in 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.4). Incubation was carried out at 37.degree. C. for 15 minutes. Specific 5HT2 receptor binding was defined as the difference in amount of [.sup.3 H]spiroperidol bound to the tissue in the presence or the absence of 1 mM serotonin.

4. PCP receptor

PCP receptor binding was initiated by the addition of the receptor preparation (cortex tissue, 0.2 mg protein/ml) to a mixture containing 5 nM of [.sup.3 H]TCP and the test compound dissolved in 5 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.8). Incubation was carried out at 25.degree. C. for 30 minutes. Specific PCP receptor binding was defined as the difference in amount of [.sup.3 H]TCP bound to the tissue in the presence or the absence of 10 .mu.M PCP.

The test results are shown in Table 17.
