Triazolopyridazine compounds, their production and use

The present invention relates to triazolopyridazine derivatives and their salts, their production, intermediates, and pharmaceutical compositions. The triazolopyridazine derivative and its salt of the present invention have antiallergic, antiinflammatory and anti-PAF (platelet activating factor) activities and, by virtue of their inhibitory action on bronchospasm and bronchoconstriction, can be used as effective antiasthmatic agents.
While a large number of triazolopyridazine compounds are synthesized of late for use as drugs effective against a variety of diseases, U.S. Pat. No. 3,915,968 discloses a compound of the formula: ##STR3## wherein R and R.sup.3 independently stand for a hydrogen atom or a lower alkyl group (at least one of R and R.sup.3 is lower alkyl); R.sup.1 and R.sup.2, taken together with the nitrogen atom, stand for a heterocyclic group selected from among pyrrolidine, piperidine, piperazine and morpholine, or a salt thereof;
U.S. Pat. No. 4,136,182 discloses a compound of the formula: ##STR4## wherein R stand for hydrogen, phenyl or lower alkylcarbonylamino; R.sup.1 stands for morpholino or piperidino; R.sup.2 means hydrogen or lower alkyl; provided, however, that at least one of R and R.sup.2 is a species other than hydrogen and further that when R is phenyl, R.sup.1 stands for morpholino and R.sup.2 stands for lower alkyl, or a salt thereof; EP-A-0 248 413 describes a compound of the formula: ##STR5## or a salt thereof, all noting to the effect that the respective compounds are of use as bronchodilators effective for relief of bronchospasms.
Although a wide variety of antiasthmatic drugs are now commercially available, none are satisfactory as to action sustainability, safety and other properties. It is therefore desired that a new compound be developed which exhibits more antiallergic, anti-inflammatory and anti-PAF activities and which is excellent in action sustainability, safety and other properties for an antiasthmatic drug.
The present inventors investigated the chemical modefication of [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-b]pyridazine compounds at the 6 position, and found that a new series of [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-b]pyridazine compounds structurally different from the above-mentioned known compounds unexpectedly exhibited highly antiallergic, anti-inflammatory and anti-PAF activities and excellent action substainability and safety. They further found that these compounds inhibit bronchospasm and bronchoconstriction and, therefore, could be utilized as effective antiasthmatic agents. Based on these findings, the present invention has been accomplished.
Thus, the present invention provides
(1) a compound of the general formula: ##STR6## wherein R.sup.1 stands for a hydrogen atom, an optionally substituted lower alkyl group or a halogen atom; R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 each stands for a hydrogen atom or an optionally substituted lower alkyl group, or R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 may, taken together with the adjacent --C.dbd.C-- group, form a 5- to 7-membered ring; X stands for an oxygen atom or S(O).sub.p (p stands for a whole number of 0 to 2); Y stands for a group of the formula: ##STR7## (R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 each is a hydrogen atom or an optionally substituted lower alkyl group) or a divalent group derived from an optionally substituted 3- to 7-membered homocyclic or heterocyclic ring; R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 each stands for a hydrogen atom, an optionally substituted lower alkyl group, an optionally substituted cycloalkyl group or an optionally substituted aryl group, or R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 may, taken together with the adjacent nitrogen atom, form an optionally substituted nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group; m stands for a whole number of 0 to 4; n stands for a whole number of 0 to 4, or a salt thereof,

Route of administration may be oral or parenteral.

EXPERIMENT
The results of a pharmacological test of the compound [I] or salt thereof according to the invention are shown below. [Effect on platelet activating factor (PAF)-induced guinea pig bronchoconstriction]
Male Hartley guinea pigs (body weights about 500 g) were used. Bronchoconstriction induced by PAF, 1 .mu.g/kg i.v., in guinea pigs was measured using to the method of Konzett-Roessler. With the guinea pig immobilized in the dorsal position, tracheotomy was performed under urethane (1.5 g/kg i.v.) anesthesia and the trachea was connected through a cannula to a respirator. The side branch of the tracheal cannula was connected to a transducer (Model 7020, Ugobasile). With the volume of air per feed being controlled at 3-7 ml, the ventilation frequency at 70/min. and the pulmonary loading pressure at 10 cm H.sub.2 O, the volume of overflow air was recorded on a rectigraph (Recte-Hori-8s, San-ei Sokki) through the transducer. After administration of gallamine (1 mg/kg i.v.), PAF, 1 .mu.g/kg, dissolved in physiological saline was administered through a jugular vein cannula and the induced bronchoconstriction was recorded for 15 minutes. The drug suspended in a 5% solution of gum arabic was administered orally in a dose of 30 mg/kg or 10 mg/kg one hour before PAF treatment. The results are presented in Table 1.

It will be apparent from Table 1 that the compound [I] or a salt thereof of the invention have excellent anti-PAF (platelet activating factor) activity. [Effect on leukotriene C.sub.4 (LTC.sub.4)-induced guinea pig bronchoconstriction]
Male Hartley guinea pigs (body weights about 500 g) were used. Bronchoconstriction induced by LTC.sub.4, 20 .mu.g/kg i.v., in guinea pigs was measured using to the method of Konzett-Rossler. With the guinea pig immobilized in the dorsal position, tracheotomy was performed under urethane (1.5 g/kg i.v.) anesthesia and the trachea was connected through a cannula to a respirator. The side branch of the tracheal cannula was connected to a transducer (Model 7020, Ugobasile). With the volume of air per feed being controlled at 3-7 ml, the ventilation frequency at 70/min. and the pulmonary loading pressure at 10 cm H.sub.2 O, the volume of overflow air was recorded on a rectigraph (Recte-Hori-8s, San-ei Sokki) through the transducer. After administration of gallamine (1 mg/kg i.v.), LTC.sub.4, 20 .mu.g/kg, dissolved in physiological saline was administered through a jagular vein cannula and the induced bronchoconstriction was recorded for 15 minutes. The drug suspended in a 5% solution of gum arabic was administered orally one hour before LTC.sub.4 treatment. The results are presented in Table 2.

Male Hartley guinea pugs (body weights about 500 g) were used. Bronchoconstriction induced by ET-1, 5 .mu.g/kg i.v., in guinea pigs was measured using to the method of Konzett-Rossler. With the guinea pig immobilized in the dorsal position, tracheotomy was performed under urethane (1.5 g/kg i.v.) anesthesia and the trachea was connected through a cannula to a respirator. The side branch of the tracheal cannula was connected to a transducer (Model 7020, Ugobasile). With the volume of air per feed being controlled at 3-7 ml, the ventilation frequency at 70/min. and the pulmonary loading pressure at 10 cm H.sub.2 O, the volume of overflow air was recorded on a rectigraph (Recte-Hori-8s, San-ei Sokki) through the transducer. After administration of gallamine (1 mg/kg i.v.), ET-1, 5 .mu.g/kg, dissolved in physiological saline was administered through a jagular vein cannula and the induced bronchoconstriction was recorded for 15 minutes. The drug suspended in a 5% solution of gum arbic was administrered orally one hour before ET-1 treatment. The results are presented in Table 3.
