Concerning the heterotricyclic cage compounds having the said skeleton (I'), only a few compounds have hitherto been described, and a small amount of study on their chemistry or synthesis has hitherto been done. That is, the following compounds were synthesized previously:
(A) French Pat. No. A-1474107 (1966) discloses the formation of the compounds of the following formulae: ##STR16## by acid catalized isomerization of 2,2-bishydroxymethyl-5-norbornene and their use as intermediates for plasticizers or lubricant stabilizers.

(C) R. M. Moriarty and K. Kapadia., Tetrahedron Letters, p. 1165 (1964) report the preparation of the compounds of the formulae: ##STR19##
(D) R. M. Moriarty, H. Gopal and T. Adams., Tetrahedron Letters, p. 4003 (1970) report the preparation of the compounds of the formulae: ##STR20##
(E) R. M. Moriarty, C. R. Romain and T. O. Lovett., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 89, p. 3927 (1967) report the preparation of the compounds of the formulae: ##STR21##
(F) C. R. Johnson and W. D. Kingsbury., J. Org. Chem., 38, p. 1803 (1973) report the preparation of the compounds of the formulae: ##STR22##
Under the situation as described above, the present inventors have studied and developed the synthesis of the said heterotricyclic cage compounds and also made search on their useful biological activities. As the result, it has now been found that the novel heterotricyclic cage compounds (I) of the invention exhibit excellent antiviral activity.
As reviewed by L. Weinstein in "Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics" (L. S. Goodman & A. Gilman, McMillan Company) p. 1305-1307 (1970), very few agents have been found to have clinical applicability for antiviral drug although the search for substances that might be of use in the management of viral infections has been long and intensive. Idoxuridine, amantadine and methiazone, synthetic antivirals for clinical use, are described in said text.
The heterotircyclic cage compound (I) of the invention may be employed to control, namely to treat and prevent viral infections caused by RNA type viruses such as Myxo group.
As a clinically useful anti-influenza A viral agent with a cage structure, amantadine of the following formula is already known (Merck Index 9th, p. 367-368). ##STR23##
The amantadine is now marketed in U.S.A. as an anti-influenza A viral agent. However, it possesses not only an antiviral activity but also strong effects on a central nervous system (CNS). Based on such CNS-effects, amantadine is now marketed as an anti-parkinsonism agent in several countries including Japan, West Germany, United Kingdom or France. For antiviral agents, the CNS-effects of amantadine is deemed as undesirable side effects.
The heterotricyclic cage compounds (I) of the present invention are found to be very effective to inhibit the growth of influenza virus, but surprisingly, exerting no or almost no CNS-effects. In addition, the toxicities of the heterotricyclic cage compound (I) are found to be significantly lower than those of amantadine. Thus, the heterotricyclic cage compounds (I) are very useful as antiviral agents with no or weak side effects or toxicities.
Some of the heterotricyclic cage compounds (I) of the invention are also useful as intermediates for another type of the heterotricyclic cage compounds (I).
The heterotricyclic cage compounds (I) and their non-toxic salts can be used for treatment of the viral infection of mammals caused by influenza virus or for prevention thereof. For this purpose, they can be administered either alone or in combination with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. The proportion of the agent administered is determined by the solubility and chemical nature of the compound, chosen route of administration and standard biological practice. For example, they may be administered orally in solid forms, such as starch, mild sugar and so forth. They may be also administered orally in the form of solutions or injected parenterally. For parenteral administration, they may be used in the form of sterile solutions containing other solutes, for example, enough saline or glucose to make the solutions isotonic.
For example, these compounds (I) can inhibit the influenza virus multiplication in tissue culture method. Furthermore, they are very low cytotoxic.
For instance, Compound No. 27- 2 cited in Table IV has values of 25 .mu.g/ml in the minimum effective concentration (MEC) and of 200 .mu.g/ml in the minimum cytotoxic concentration (MCC). Therefore, a chemotherapeutic index (MCC/MEC) of Compound No. 27-2 is 8. As MEC of amantadine, commercially available as an antiviral drug for small Myxo virus (classified as the same Myxo virus groups as influenza virus) infections, is 12.5 and its MCC is 12.5, its chemotherapeutic index is 1. Compared with these values, Compound No. 27-2 is proved to be 8 times as safe as amantadine.
Antiviral effects of these compounds (I) are also confirmed by in vivo experiments. When mice are infected by inhalation of influenza virus, the grade of virus-induced lung consolidation is observed, and the anti-viral effects of the compounds (I) are determined by the supressing effects on the said lung consolidation.
As indicated in Table III, for example, the efficacy of Compound No. 29-1 or 12-3 is comparable to that of amantadine. Low toxicities of the compounds (I) of the invention are also demonstrated in Table I. That is, the acute toxicities of the compounds (I) of the invention are much weaker than that of amantadine as shown in Table I.
Moreover, it is shown in Table II that the compounds (I) of the invention do not have any strong antagonizing effect on the haloperidol induced catalepsy. That is, for example, most of the compounds (I) of the invention have no or very weak effect on the catalepsy at doses up to 500 mg/kg, whereas amantadine itself antagonizes the catalepsy at 50 mg/kg. This means that the compounds (I) of the invention do not have any strong effect on CNS-system: high correlation between the anti-catalepsy effect and CNS-stimulating effect is already revealed; see "P. Siwou et al., J. Pharm. Pharmcol., 22, 546-547 (1970)" or "J. May et al., Psychopharmcol., 24, 296-307 (1972)".
In addition, no side effects were observed in mice treated by these compounds (I).
Therefore, the compounds (I) of the invention are superior to amantadine as an antiviral agent. Thus, the compounds of the invention are epochmaking antiviral agents in terms of their remarkable effectiveness and very low toxicity.
The compounds (I) of the invention may be used in the form of pharmaceutical preparations appropriate for enteral or parenteral administration. Preferable excipients used therein are those which do not react with the compounds mentioned above, for example, water, gelatine, lactose, starch, stearic acid, magnesium stearate, talc, white petroleum jelly, vegitable oils, alcohol, benzyl alcohol, gums, polyalkylene glycols, or other known excipients for medicines. The pharmaceutical preparations may be in the form of tablets, powder, dragees (sugar coated tablets), capsules, suppositories, liquids, elixirs, emulsions, suspensions, syrups, chocolate, candy, waters, chewing gum or the like. If desired, they are sterilized and/or contain auxiliary substances such as preservatives, stabilizers, wetting agents, detergents or buffers. They may also additionally contain other therapeutically valuable substances (e.g. other antiviral agents, chemotherapuetic agents, antibiotics, anti-inflammatory agents, anti-pyretics, analgesics, enzyme preparations or the like).
The pharmaceutical preparations are formulated by usual methods. They may be conjointly administered with a viral inhibitor such as interferon, interferon inducer or the like. The compositions and preparations should contain at least 0.1% of active component.
The compositions of this invention may be administered enterally, parenterally or in the form of nasal and oral aerosol spray. The compositions of this invention are also effective in resisting as well as combatting viral infections when administered topically to the site of the infection or potential infection in the form of ointments, salves, lotions, creams, sprays, drops, etc. The amount of the active component in such useful compositions or preparations is such that a suitable dosage of 0.5 mg to 50 mg/Kg/day will be obtained.
These compounds may be used systemically, more concretely, parenterally and non-parenterally, etc. and by a local application such as inhalation, topical application and dropping in the eye, etc., in the preparation form suitable for application such as liquid, ointment, powder, granule, mush, pellet, capsule, tablet, etc. by the addition of afore-mentioned solvent, additives, carriers, etc.

C. to the boiling point of the solvent to be used therein. ##STR36## wherein Z is the residue of a strong acid, R.sub.13 is the same as R.sub.1 excluding a hydrogen atom and R.sub.24 is the same as R.sub.2 excluding a hydrogen atom) ##STR37##

The reaction (3) may also be achieved by reacting the compound of the formula (Im): ##STR38## wherein A.sub.1, A.sub.2, A.sub.3, X and Z are each as defined above, with the amine ##STR39##
Examples of the residue of a strong acid represented by Z are chloride (--Cl), bromide (--Br), p-toluenesulfonate ##STR40## methanesulfonate (--OSO.sub.2 --CH.sub.3), sulfate (--O--SO.sub.2 --O--) and so on. The reaction (1), (2) or (3) may preferably be carried out by using an organic or inorganic base.

The reactions (1) to (3) can be carried out in the presence of an inert solvent (e.g. benzene, toluene, tetrahydrofuran, ether, dimethoxyethane, methanol, ethanol). The reaction conditions may vary depending upon the reaction temperature and the activated radicals to be used therein. The reaction temperature may be from 0.degree. C. to boiling point of the solvent used.
When each of R.sub.13 and R.sub.24 means an alkyl group, an alkenyl group, an alkynyl group or an aralkyl group, oversubstitution may often occur giving a mixed product, and therefore in these cases, milder conditions may preferably be employed. ##STR42## (wherein R.sub.8 is a hydrogen atom, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl group, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 haloalkyl group, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkoxy group or a benzyloxy group) ##STR43##

The reactions (1) and (2) may be carried out using a co-solvent such as methanol, ethanol, butanol, ethyleneglycol, dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide. The reactions (1) and (2) may mostly be carried out by heating the reaction mixture at a temperature from room temperature to the refluxing temperature of the reaction system in order to complete the hydrolysis.
The reaction (2) may also be achieved by the modified method of Manske (J. Chem.

The types of the reactions (1), (2) and (3) are all well known rearrangement reactions; the reaction (1) is Hofmann rearrangement (Org. Reactions, 3, 267); the reaction (2) is Curtius rearrangement (Org. Reactions, 3, 337); and the reaction (3) is Lossen rearrangement (Chem. Review, 33, 209 (1943)).
By these reactions, the isocyanate may initially be formed, from which the amine may be obtained by hydrolysis, and the urethane may be obtained by treatment with an alcohol (R.sub.9 -OH).
The reaction (1) may be effected by treatment of the amide with an alkali hypohalite (e.g. sodium hypobromite, sodium hypochlorite). The reaction (2) or (3) may be effected by heating the acyl azide or the hydroxamic acid. The reaction (3) may also be effected by treating the hydroxamic acid with a base (e.g. sodium hydride).
The reactions (1) to (3) may generally be carried out in a suitable solvent (e.g. water, methanol, ethanol, tetrahydrofuran, benzene, toluene) at a temperature from room temperature to the refluxing temperature of the reaction system.
The isocyanate obtained as above may be hydrolyzed into the amine in a conventional way. For example, the hydrolysis can be carried out by treating the isocyanate with an alkali (e.g. NaOH, KOH) or an acid (e.g. HCl, H.sub.2 SO.sub.4) in water or a mixture of water and an organic solvent (e.g. dioxane, ethyleneglycol, dimethylformamide) at a temperature ranging from room temperature to the refluxing temperature of the reaction system.
When the reaction (1), (2) or (3) is carried out in the presence of an alcohol (R.sub.9 -OH), the urethane may be obtained as a product of the rearrangement.
The heterotricyclic cage compound thus obtained can be separated from the reaction mixture and purified by the conventional procedures.
Method F

[step 1] The Diels-Alder reaction
The first step for the synthesis of the compound (IIa) or (IIa') is the Diels-Alder reaction using an alicyclic diene compound of the formula (IIIa): ##STR76## wherein A.sub.2 is as defined above with a dienophile of the formula (IIIb) or (IIIc): ##STR77## wherein W is a carboxyl group, an alkoxycarbonyl group, a cyano group, a formyl group, an acyl group or a carbamoyl group, V is a hydrogen atom, a carboxyl group, an alkoxycarbonyl group, a cyano group, a formyl group, an acyl group, a halogen atom or a hydroxyl group and A.sub.4 is a single bond or a lower alkylene group.
The products, i.e. the diene adducts (IIk) and (IIl), obtained by this reaction are shown as follows: ##STR78## wherein A.sub.2, A.sub.4, W and V are each as defined above.
This process can be carried out in a conventional manner as disclosed, for example, in H. Wollweber in "Methoden der Organischen Chemie (Houben-Wyle)", Band V/IC, Kohlenwasserstoffe III, Georg Thieme (1970), p. 977-1139, M. P. Kloetzel, Org. React., 4, 1-59 (1948); H. L. Holmes, ibid., 4, 60-173 (1948); L. W. Butz, A. W. Rytina, ibid., 5, 136-192 (1949).
The diene adducts (IIk) and (IIl) thus prepared can be separated from each other by a conventional procedure such as chromatography or recrystallization.
[step 2] Functional modification
The second step for the synthesis of the compound (IIa) or (IIa') is the transformation of the group with the endo-orientation of the diene adduct obtained above into the group (--A.sub.3 --X.sub.1 --H) of the compound (IIa) or (IIa'): ##STR79##
The transformation of the other group of the diene adduct into the group (--A.sub.1 --B) of the compound (IIa) may be carried out before, after or during the aforesaid transformation of the endo group: ##STR80##
The modification of the functional groups of the diene adducts may be carried out by using a conventional procedure such as hydrolysis, reduction or thiolation.
For example, the compounds (IIa) wherein --A.sub.3 --X.sub.1 --H is hydroxymethyl, .beta.-hydroxyethyl, thiolmethyl or carboxy may be obtained from alkoxycarbonyl, alkoxycarbonylmethyl, halomethyl by reduction, thiolation or hydrolysis.
The diene (IIIa) to be used is such an alicyclic diene compound as cyclopentadiene, 1,3-cyclohexadiene or cycloheptatriene.
The followings are the typical examples of the diene adducts to be used in the production of the compound (IIa): ##STR81## wherein A.sub.2 and R.sub.5 are each as defined above.
Among the diene adducts, those of the formulae (1) (A.sub.1 .dbd.CH.sub.2, CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2, cyclopropylene), (2) (A.sub.1 .dbd.CH.sub.2, CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2), (3) (A.sub.1 .dbd.CH.sub.2), (7) (A.sub.1 .dbd.CH.sub.2, CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2) and (8) (A.sub.1 .dbd.CH.sub.2, CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2) are already known.

Effects on Influenza virus infection:
The antiviral activities were determined by the modified Horsfall's method [cf. Tani et al., Fukuoka Igaku Zasshi, 58, 9 (1967)].
(1) Drug preparation
The compounds to be tested were dissolved in sterile physiological saline or suspended in 5% arabia gumsaline solution for injection.
(2) Animals
ICR male mice weighing about 12 g were used in this study. Ten animals were used in each experiment.
(3) Virus
Influenza A/PR/8/34 (HO,Nl) strain
(4) Drug evaluation
Five LD.sub.50 of influenza virus was used for infecting mice by the aerosol. Subcutaneous drug treatment using various dosages started at 3 hour pre., 2, 6, 18, 30, 42, 54, 66, 78, 90, 102, 114, 126, 138 and 150 hour post infection in order to determine the efficacy of the compounds. Lung lesion score (LLC) was determined 7 days after infection by sacrificing the animals.
When the mice died with 5 days after infection, LLS determination was also carried out.
To obtain a LLS for each mouse, the following six possible disease categories were defined:
