Triazole compounds and the use thereof as dopamine-D3 -ligands

Abstract

Triazole compounds of the following formula: where Ar1, A, B and Ar2 have the meanings given in the description, possess a high affinity for the dopamine D3 receptor and can therefore be used for treating diseases which respond to dopamine D3 ligands.

Description

The present invention relates to triazole compounds and to the use of such compounds. The compounds mentioned have valuable therapeutic properties and can be used for treating diseases which respond to dopamine D 3 receptor ligands.

Compounds of this type having physiological activity have been disclosed. U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,338,453; 4,408,049 and 4,577,020 describe triazole compounds which have antiallergic or antipsychotic activity. DE-A 44 25 144 and WO 97/25324 describe triazole compounds which respond to dopamine D 3 receptor ligands. Compounds of the same structural type, however with other heterocycles in place of the triazole ring are disclosed in DE-A-44 25 146, DE-A-44 25 143 and DE 44 25 145.

Neurons obtain their information by way of G protein-coupled receptors, inter alia. A large number of substances exert their effect by way of these receptors. One of these substances is dopamine.

It is known with certainty that dopamine is present and that it has a physiological function as a neurotransmitter. Cells responding to dopamine are connected with the etiology of schizophrenia and Parkinson's disease. These and other diseases are treated with drugs which interact with the dopamine receptors.

Prior to 1990, two dopamine receptor subtypes were clearly defined pharmacologically, ie. the D 1 and D 2 receptors.

More recently, a third subtype has been found, ie. the D 3 receptor, which appears to mediate some of the effects of the antipsychotic drugs. (J. C. Schwartz et al., The Dopamine D 3 Receptor as a Target for Antipsychotics, in Novel Antipsychotic Drugs, H. Y. Meltzer, Ed. Raven Press, New York 1992, pages 135-144)

D 3 receptors are principally expressed in the limbic system. It is therefore assumed that a selective D 3 antagonist would probably have the antipsychotic properties of the D 2 antagonists but would not have their neurological side effects. (P. Solokoff et al., Localization and Function of the D 3 Dopamine Receptor, Arzneim. Forsch./Drug Res. 42(1), 224 (1992); P. Solokoff et al. Molecular Cloning and Characterization of a Novel Dopamine Receptor (D 3 ) as a Target for Neuroleptics, Nature, 347, 146 (1990)).

Surprisingly, it has now been found that certain triazole compounds exhibit a high affinity for the dopamine D 3 receptor and a low affinity for the D 2 receptor. These compounds are therefore selective D 3 ligands.

The present invention relates, therefore, to compounds of the formula I:

where

Ar 1 is phenyl, naphthyl or a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic aromatic ring having from 1, 2, 3 or heteroatoms which are independently selected from O, S and N, where Ar 1 may have 1, 2, 3 or 4 substituents which are selected, independently of each other, from C 1 -C 6 -alkyl, which may be substituted by OH, OC 1 -C 6 -alkyl, halogen or phenyl, C 1 -C 6 -alkoxy, C 2 -C 6 -alkenyl, C 2 -C 6 -alkynyl, C 3 -C 6 -cycloalkyl, halogen, CN, COOR 2 , NR 2 R 2 , NO 2 , SO 2 R 2 , SO 2 NR 2 R 2 , or phenyl, which may be substituted by C 1 -C 6 -alkyl, OC 1 -C 6 -alkyl, NR 2 R 2 , CN, CF 3 , CHF 2 , or halogen, and where the heterocyclic, aromatic ring mentioned may be fused to a phenyl ring;

A is straight-chain or branched C 4 -C 10 -alkylene or straight-chain or branched C 3 -C 10 -alkylene which comprises at least one group Z which is selected from O, S, NR 2 , CONR 2 , COO, CO, or a double or triple bond,

B is a radical of the formula:

or, if Ar 1 represents the 5- or 6-membered, heterocyclic or aromatic ring which may be substituted as indicated, B may also be a radical of the formulae

Ar 2 is phenyl, pyridyl, pyrimidinyl or triazinyl, where Ar 2 may have from 1 to 4 substituents which are selected, independently of each other, from OR 2 , C 1 -C 6 alkyl, C 2 -C 6 -alkenyl, C 2 -C 6 -alkynyl, C l -C 6 -alkoxy-C l -C 6 -alkyl, halogen-C 1 -C 6 -alkyl, halogen-C 1 -C 6 -alkoxy, halogen, CN, NO 2 , SO 2 R 2 , NR 2 R 2 , SO 2 NR 2 R 2 , a 5- or 6-membered carbocyclic, aromatic or non-aromatic ring and a 5- or 6-membered, heterocyclic aromatic or non-aromatic ring having 1 or 2 heteroatoms which are selected from O, S and N, where the carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring may be substituted by C l -C 6 -alkyl, phenyl, phenoxy, halogen, OC 1 -C 6 -alkyl, OH, NO 2 or CF 3 and where Ar 2 may be fused to a carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring of the above-defined nature,

R 1 is H, C 3 -C 6 -cycloalkyl or C 1 -C 6 -alkyl which may be substituted by OH, OC 1 -C 6 -alkyl or phenyl;

the radicals R 2 , which can be identical or different, are H or C 1 -C 6 -alkyl, which may be substituted by OH, OC 1 -C 6 -alkyl or phenyl;

and their salts with physiologically tolerated acids.

The novel compounds are selective dopamine D 3 receptor ligands which act in a regioselective manner in a limbic system and which, due to their low affinity for the D 2 receptor, have fewer side effects than the classic neuroleptics, which are D 2 receptor antagonists. The compounds can therefore be used for treating diseases which respond to dopamine D 3 receptor antagonists or dopamine D 3 receptor agonists, eg. for treating diseases of the central nervous system, in particular schizophrenia, depressions, neuroses, psychoses, parkinson and anxiety.

Within the context of the present invention, the following expressions have the meanings given in conjunction with them: Alkyl (also in radicals such as alkoxy, alkylamino, etc.) is a straight-chain or branched alkyl group having from 1 to 6 carbon atoms and, in particular, from 1 to 4 carbon atoms. The alkyl group can have one or more substituents which are selected, independently of each other, from OH, OC 1 -C 6 -alkyl, halogen or phenyl.

The compounds of the formula VIII are novel and are likewise part of the subject-matter of the present invention.

Compounds of the (VIII) and (XI) type, where A is C 0 -alkylene, can be prepared by metallating the 3-aryl-5-H-1,2,4(4H)-triazoles

and by a method similar to methods described in T. Kauffman et al. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 1972, 11, 846 or by A. R. Katritzky, C. W. Rees(ed.) “Comprehensive Heterocyclic Chemistry”, Pergamon Press Vol. 5, p 753.

The novel compounds and the starting materials and intermediates can also be prepared by a method similar to the methods described

The above-described reactions generally take place in a solvent at between room temperature and the boiling temperature of the solvent employed. Examples of solvents which can be used are esters, such as ethyl acetate, ethers, such as diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, dimethoxyethane, toluene, xylene, ketones, such as acetone or methyl ethyl ketone, or alcohols, such as ethanol or butanol.

If desired, the reaction can be carried out in the presence of an acid binder. Suitable acid binders are inorganic bases, such as sodium or potassium carbonate, sodium or potassium hydrogen carbonate, sodium ethoxide or sodium hydride, or organometallic compounds, such butyllithium, or alkylmagnesium compounds, or organic bases, such as triethylamine or pyridine. The latter can simultaneously serve as solvents.

The reactions may be carried out using a catalyst, such as transition metals and their complexes, eg. Pd(PPh 3 ) 4 , Pd(OAc) 2 or Pd(P(oTol) 3 ) 4 , or using a phase transfer catalyst, eg. tetrabutylammonium chloride or tetrapropylammonium bromide.

The crude product is isolated in a customary manner, for example by filtering, by distilling off the solvent or by extracting from the reaction mixture, etc. The resulting compounds can be purified in a customary manner, for example by recrystallization from a solvent, by chromatography or by conversion into an acid addition compound.

The acid addition salts are prepared, in a customary manner, by mixing the free base with the appropriate acid, where appropriate in solution in an organic solvent, for example a lower alcohol, such as methanol, ethanol or propanol, an ether, such as methyl t-butyl ether, a ketone, such as acetone or methyl ethyl ketone, or an ester, such as ethyl acetate.

When used for treating the abovementioned diseases, the novel compounds are administered orally or parenterally (subcutaneously, intravenously, intramuscularly, or intraperitoneally) in a customary manner. They can also be administered through the nose/throat region using vapors or sprays.

The dose depends on the age, condition and weight of the patient and on the mode of administration. As a rule, the daily dose of active compound is from about 10 to 1000 mg per patient and day in the case of oral administration and from about 1 to 500 mg per patient and day in the case of parenteral administration.

The invention also relates to pharmaceuticals which comprise the novel compounds. These pharmaceuticals are present, in the customary pharmacological administration forms, in solid or liquid form, for example as tablets, film tablets, capsules, powders, granules, coated tablets, suppositories, solutions or sprays. In this context, the active compounds can be worked up together with the customary pharmacological auxiliary substances, such as tablet binders, fillers, preservatives, tablet disintegrants, flowance agents, emollients, wetting agents, dispersants, emulsifiers, solubilizers, retarding agents, antioxidants and/or propellant gases (cf. H. Sucker et al., Pharmazeutische Technologie [Pharmaceutical Technology], Thieme-Verlag, Stuttgart, 1978). The resulting administration forms normally comprise the active compound in a quantity of from 1 to 99% by weight.

The following examples serve to explain the invention without limiting it.

10.6 g (101.1 mmol) 4-methyl-3-thio semicarbazide and catalytic amounts of dimethyl amino pyridine were added to 10.2 g (45.1 mmol) 2-trichloracetoxy-N-methylpyrrol (obtained according to Rappoport et al., J. Org. Chem. 1972, 37, 3618) in DMF and heated to 90° C. for 18 h. 77 ml of water were added to the resulting product at room temperature, it as acidified with 10% HCl, stirred for 1 h at 0° C., filtered from the insoluble, and the original solution was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layers were dried, evaporated, and the resulting crude product was heated with a 427 ml solution of 1M sodium hydrogen carbonate to boiling. The original solution was filtered off the insoluble after completion of the reaction, was quenched and acidified with concentrated HCl, and the precipitated solid was isolated. Yield: 2.3 g (27% of th.)

B. Preparation of the End Product

576 mg (3 mmol) of 4-mercapto-3-methyl-5-phenyl-1,2,4-(4H)-triazole (prepared in accordance with the method of S. Kubota and M. Uda, Chem. Pharm. Bull. (1975), 23, 955-966 by reacting benzoyl chloride with N-methylthiosemicarbazide and subsequently cyclizing) and 1.1 g (3 mmol) of the chloropropyl compound described above under A.3 were heated, at 100° C. for 6 h, together with 7.2 mg (3 mmol) of lithium hydroxide in 10 ml of dry DMF while stirring. After the mixture had cooled down, 50 ml of water were added and the whole was extracted 3 times with t-butyl methyl ether. The organic phase was dried with sodium sulfate and concentrated by evaporation; the residue was purified by column chromatography (silica gel). The resulting pure substance (920 mg=59%) was subsequently converted into its hydrochloride using ethereal hydrochloric acid.

Biological Investigations—Receptor-binding Studies

1) D 3 -binding Test

Cloned human D 3 receptor-expressing CCL 1,3 mouse fibro-blasts, which can be obtained from Res. Biochemicals Internat., One Strathmore Rd., Natick, Mass. 01760-2418 USA, were used for the binding studies.

Cell Preparation

The D 3 -expessing cells were multiplied in RPMI-1640 containing 10% fetal calf serum (GIBCO No. 041-32400 N); 100 U/ml penicillin and 0.2% streptomycin (GIBCO BRL, Gaithersburg, Md., USA). After 48 h, the cells were washed with PBS and incubated for 5 min with 0.05% trypsin-containing PBS. After that, the mixture was neutralized with medium and the cells were collected by centrifuging at 300 g. In order to lyse the cells, the pellet was briefly washed with lysis buffer (5mM tris-HCl, pH 7.4, containing 10% glycerol) and then incubated, at 4° C. for 30 min, at a concentration of 107 cells/ml of lysis buffer. The cells were centrifuged at 200 g for 10 min and the pellet was stored in liquid nitrogen.

Binding Tests

For the D 3 receptor-binding test, the membranes were suspended in incubation buffer (50 mM tris-HCl, pH 7.4, containing 120 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl 2 , 2 mM MgCl 2 , 10 μM quinolinol, 0.1% of ascorbic acid and 0.1% BSA) at a concentration of approx. 10 6 cells/250 μl of test mixture and incubated at 30° C. with 0.1 nM 125 iodosulpride in the presence and absence of test substance. The nonspecific binding was determined using 10 −6 M spiperone.

After 60 min, the free and the bound radio ligand were separated by filtration through GF/B glass fiber filters (Whatman, England) on a Skatron cell collector (Skatron, Lier, Norway) and the filters were washed with ice-cold tris-HCl buffer, pH 7.4. The radioactivity which had collected on the filters was quantified using a Packard 2200 CA liquid scintillation counter.

The K i values were determined by means of nonlinear regression analysis using the LIGAND program.

2) D 2 -binding Test

Cell Culture

HEK-293 cells, possessing stably expressed human dopamine D2A receptors, were cultured in RPMI 1640 containing Glutamax I™ and 25 mM HEPES containing 10% fetal calf serum albumin. All the media contained 100 units of pencillin per ml and 100 μg/ml streptomycin. The cells were kept at 37° C. in a moist atmosphere containing 5% Co 2 .

The cells were prepared for the binding studies by being trypsinized (0.05% trypsin solution) at room temperature for 3-5 minutes. After that, the cells were centrifuged at 250 g for 10 minutes and treated, at 4° C. for 30 minutes, with lysis buffer (5 mM tris-HCl, 10% glycerol, pH 7.4). Following centrifugation at 250 g for 10 minutes, the residue was stored at −20° C. until used.

Receptor Binding Tests

Dopamine D 2 receptor “low affinity state” using 125 I-spiperone (81 TBq/mmol, Du Pont de Nemours, Dreieich)

The mixtures (1 ml) were composed of 1×10 5 cells in incubation buffer (50 mM tris, 120 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 2 mM MgCl 2 and 2 mM CaCl 2 , pH 7.4 with HCl) and 0.1 nM 125 I-spiperone (total binding) or, in addition, 1 μM haloperidol (nonspecific binding) or test substance.

After having been incubated at 25° C. for 60 minutes, the mixtures were filtered through GF/B glass fiber filters (Whatman, England) on a Skatron cell collector (Zinsser, Frankfurt) and the filters were washed with ice-cold 50 mM tris-HCl buffer, pH 7.4. The radioactivity which had collected on the filters was quantified using a Packard 2200 CA liquid scintillation counter.

The evaluation was carried out as described under a).

The K i values were determined by means of nonlinear regression analysis using the LIGAND program or by converting the IC 50 values with the aid of the formula of Cheng and Prusoff.

In these tests, the novel compounds exhibit very good affinities for the D 3 receptor (<1 μmolar, in particular <100 nmolar) and high selectivities in relation to the D 3 receptor.
