Tricyclic thromboxane A.sub.2 antagonists

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to novel tricyclic compounds which strongly antagonize an action of thromboxane A.sub.2 (hereafter referred to as TXA.sub.2) and possess an antiallergic and/or antihistaminic activity.
It is hitherto known that TXA.sub.2 strongly aggregates platelets and is a potent vasoconstrictor [cf. Arachidonic Acid Cascade and Drugs, edited by Shozo Yamamoto, Gendai Iryo Publishing Co., Ltd. (1985)]. Further TXA.sub.2 is a powerful vasoconstrictor against bronchus and bronchial smooth muscle. Therefore, TXA.sub.2 is considered to take part in pathological conditions over a wide range. As examples, the following diseases can be exemplified.
(1) Ischemic disease
For example, myocardial infarction, angina pectoris, and thrombosis
(2) Cerebro-vascular disease
For example, transient ischemic attack, migraine, cerebral hemorrhage, and cerebral infarction
(3) Peripheral vascular diseases and disease caused by unbalanced lipid metabolism
For example, atherosclerosis, capillary convulsion, peripheral circulation disorders, hypertension, and pulmonary embolism
(4) Inflammatory and allergic disease
For example, bronchial asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia, nephritis, and hepatitis
(5) Shock
(6) Cancer metastasis
Accordingly, compounds that antagonize the action of TXA.sub.2 are expected to have therapeutic effects in preventing or treating one or more of the diseases described above or other diseases involving TXA.sub.2. Furthermore, in those instances where use of a particular drug was limited due to side effects mediated by TXA.sub.2 or considered to be mediated by TXA.sub.2, it is expected to alleviate the side effects by the use of compounds which antagonize the action of TXA.sub.2.
In recent years, TXA.sub.2 is also thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of allergic diseases, especially of an asthma [cf. J. Allergy Clin. Immunol., 77, 122 (1986); Arch. Pharmacol., 327, 148 (1984)].
As an antagonist of TXA.sub.2, representative compounds are exemplified in Thrombosis Research, 44, 377 (1986).
Furthermore, an indole compound having the following structure: ##STR2## and the like are disclosed in Japanese Published Unexamined Patent Application No. 249960/1986 [West German Patent Application (DE) No. 3,514,696] and a compound having the following structure: ##STR3## and the like are disclosed in Japanese Published Unexamined Patent Application No. 212552/1986 [West German Patent Application (DE) No. 3,508,692]. These compounds have a phenylsulfonamide group as a side chain and exhibit an activity of antagonizing TXA.sub.2.

The carboxylic acid reactive derivative includes an acid halide (acid chloride, acid bromide, etc.), an acid anhydride (acid anhydride formed with a dehydrating condensing agent such as N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, etc., in the reaction system, commercially available acid anhydrides, etc.), an activated ester (p-nitrophenyl ester, N-hydroxysuccinimide ester, etc.), a mixed acid anhydride (monoethyl carbonate, monoisobutyl carbonate, etc.) and the like. Further in the case that E.sup.1 is --COO--, A.sup.3 represents halogen as described above and in the case that E.sup.1 is --SO.sub.2 --, A.sup.3 represents halogen or --O--SO.sub.2 --Q.
Compound (Ic) can be obtained by reacting Compound (XII) or acid addition salts thereof with 1 to 5 molar equivalents of Compound (XIII), either in an inert solvent such as methylene chloride, chloroform, etc., in the presence of a base such as pyridine, etc., or in a basic organic solvent such as pyridine or triethylamine, etc., at a temperature of 0.degree. C. to room temperature for 1 to 24 hours.
Method 4-1
[Synthesis of Compound (Id) in Compound (I), wherein M is --COOH] ##STR37## wherein one of R.sup.A1 and R.sup.B1 represents --Y--COOH and the other represents hydrogen; and , X.sub.1 -X.sub.2, G.sup.A, G.sup.B, W, Z, Y, n, g.sup.A, g.sup.B and p have the same significances as described above.
Compound (Id) can be obtained by hydrolysis of the corresponding carboxylic acid ester.
That is, Compound (Id) can be obtained by subjecting Compound (Ie) [in Compound (I), compound wherein M is --COOR.sup.3 c (wherein R.sup.3c represents lower alkyl in the definitions for R.sup.3 described above)] synthesized according to Methods 1 to 3, to an appropriate hydrolysis method, for example, by reacting with a molar equivalent to an excess of sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, etc. in a solvent mixture of a lower alcohol such as methanol, ethanol, etc. and water, at a temperature of from room temperature to the boiling point of the solvent for 1 to 48 hours.
Method 4-2
[Synthesis of Compound (Id-1) in Compound (I), wherein Y is single bond] ##STR38## wherein one of R.sup.A2 and R.sup.B2 represents --COOH and the other represents hydrogen; and , X.sub.1 -X.sub.2, G.sup.A, G.sup.B, W, Z, n, g.sup.A, g.sup.B and p have the same significances as described above.
Compound (Id-1) can be obtained according to the following reaction steps: ##STR39## wherein one of Hal.sup.A and Hal.sup.B represents Hal and the other represents hydrogen; and , X.sub.1 -X.sub.2, R.sup.A2, R.sup.B2, G.sup.A, G.sup.B, W, Z, Hal, n, g.sup.A, g.sup.B and p have the same significances as described above.
Compound (Id-1) can be obtained by carboxylating Compound (XIV) synthesized from Compound (II-1) in a manner similar to Methods 1 to 3.
Carboxylation can be performed by reacting, for example, Compound (XIV) with 1 molar equivalent of a metallizing agent, e.g., n-butyl lithium, in an inert solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, etc., at a temperature of from -78.degree. C. to room temperature, for 10 minutes to 12 hours followed by reacting the resulting reaction mixture with 1 molar equivalent to a largely excessive amount of carbon dioxide at a temperature of from -78.degree. C. to room temperature, for 10 minutes to 12 hours. Alternatively, Compound (Id-1) can be obtained by preparing the corresponding Grignard reagent from Compound (XIV) and magnesium in an inert solvent such as diethyl ether, etc. in a manner similar to Method 2-2 and reacting the reagent with carbon dioxide, and the like method.
Method 5
In the methods for production shown by Methods 1 through 4, where groups defined in Compound (I) change under reaction conditions for practicing the method or are inappropriate for practicing the method, the groups may be subjected to conventional means used in organic synthesis chemistry, for example, means for protecting functional groups, means for removing protection, etc. [for example, cf., Green, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, John Wiley & Sons Incorporated (1981)], methods for oxidation, reduction, hydrolysis, etc. [for example, cf., SHIN-JIKKEN KAGAKU KOZA, vols. 14 & 15, Maruzen (1977)].
For example, in case that group M is --COOH, 4,4-dimethyloxazoline, etc. are preferably used as a protecting group for --COOH (for example, Japanese Published Unexamined Patent Application No. 10784/1988) in the method in which the corresponding ester is hydrolyzed (cf. Method 4-1 described above) or in the reaction using a Grignard reagent (cf., for example, Method 2-2). Further, a desired compound can be obtained by hydrolyzing (removing a protecting group in) a compound obtained by Methods 1 through 4, etc. in which group --Y--M is --Y'--CH.sub.2 OR.sup.10 [wherein Y' represents a group obtained by removing CH.sub.2 from Y and R.sup.10 represents a protecting group for hydroxyl (e.g., acetyl, tetrahydropyranyl, etc.)] to convert into --Y'-CH.sub.2 OH and oxidizing the compound.
The intermediates and objective compounds in the respective methods described above can be isolated and purified by purification methods conventionally used in organic synthesis chemistry, for example, filtration; extraction, washing, drying, concentration, recrystallization, various column chromatographies, etc. Further the intermediates may also be provided in the subsequent reaction, without being particularly purified.
In Compound (I) obtained by the foregoing methods, compounds wherein W is shown by .dbd.CH-- include geometrical isomers of E-form and Z-form with respect to stereochemistry. In general, the methods described above give a mixture of these isomers. Isolation and purification-of these isomers can be made in a conventional manner in organic synthesis chemistry, for example, column chromatography, recrystallization, etc. It is also possible to isolate the isomers at stages of intermediates (Xa to Xe) by the various methods described above.
Further, if desired, E- and Z-forms may be isomerized from each other. This can be made by treating each isomer under reflux in, e.g., acetic acid, for 1 to 24 hours, in the presence of an appropriate acid catalyst such as p-toluenesulfonic acid, etc.
In the present invention, Compound (I) includes not only the E/Z isomers described above but also all possible stereoisomers and a mixture thereof.
When the synthesis yields Compound (I) in the form of a salt and such salt is a desired product, the thus formed compound (I) may be purified as is.
When Compound (I) is obtained in a free form, salts may be formed in a conventional manner. Furthermore, Compound (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof may also be present in the form of addition products to water or various solvents; these adducts including the pharmaceutically acceptable salts are also included in the present invention.
Specific examples of Compound (I) obtained by various methods are shown in Table 1.
Numbering of substitution positions in Table 1 and Table 6 later described does not necessarily harmonize with the correct nomenclature [cf. see (NOTE) below]; but for purpose of simplicity, numbering of the substitution positions is systematically made as illustrated below. ##STR40##
(NOTE):
In cycloheptene derivatives (wherein X.sub.1 -X.sub.2 is --CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 -- or --CH.dbd.CH--), despite the positional number in the general formula above, for example, a substituent on the carbon at the 2-position in the formula above is correctly given as a substituent at the 3-position. However, in the tables, according to the positional numbering in the formula described above, --COOH on the carbon at the 2-position is indicated to be 2--COOH (correctly 3--COOH).

Test on Anti-Platelet Activity (TXA.sub.2 Antagonizing Test)
Using guinea pig platelets, influence of the compounds in accordance with the present invention on platelet aggregation induced by U-46619 (9,11-dideoxy-9.alpha.,11a-methanoepoxyprostaglandin F.sub.2 .alpha.; manufactured by Cayman Chemica Co., Ltd.) which is a TXA.sub.2 /prostaglandin H.sub.2 receptor stimulant was examined.
Male guinea pig (Hartley strain; body weight, 300 to 600 g) was anesthesized by intraperitoneal administration of sodium pentobarbital (30 mg/kg) and blood was collected from the descending aorta of the abdomen with a 1/10 volume of sodium citrate. By centrifugation (KC-70: manufactured by Kubota Co., Ltd.) at 800 rpm for 10 minutes, platelet rich plasma (PRP) was collected. Platelet aggregation induced by U-46619 (0.5-1 .mu.M) was determined by photometry [Born, G.V.R. et al., Nature (London), 194, 927-929 (1962)]. A test compound was pretreated before 3 minutes prior to aggregation induction and the ability of inhibiting aggregation was measured. The minimum concentration for inhibiting platelet aggregation by 30% or more was defined as the minimum effective concentration (MEC) of the test compound.
The results are shown in Table 3.
Antiallergic Activity Test
Antiallergic activity was examined in accordance with the passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) test using rats. As test animals, Wistar strain male rats weighing 180 to 220 g were used to collect antiserum and for the PCA test, Wistar strain male rats weighing 120 to 140 g were used.
(A) Preparation of anti-egg white albumin (EWA) rat serum
Anti-EWA rat serum was prepared according to the method of Stotland and Share [Can. J. Physiol. Pharmacol., 52, 1114 (1974)]. That is, 1 mg of EWA was mixed with 20 mg of aluminum hydroxide gel and 0.5 ml of pertussis-diphtheria-tetanus mixed vaccine. The mixture was subcutaneously administered to the rat paw in 4 portions. Fourteen days after, blood was collected from the carotid artery and the serum was isolated and stored in a state frozen at -80.degree. C. Titer of this antiserum to homologous PCA for 48 hours was 1:32.
(B) Homologous PCA test for 48 hours using rats
Three rats were used per group. After the hair at the back was cut, 0.05 ml each of anti-EWA rat serum diluted to 8-fold with physiological saline was intracutaneously injected to each rat at the back in 2 places to passively sensitize the rat. A test compound or its solution (physiological saline solution or CMC solution) was orally administered 47 hours after and 0.5 ml/100 g of 1% Evans Blue physiological saline containing 2 mg of antigen EWA was then intravenously administered to the tail vein an hour after the administration. Thirty minutes later, the animal was bled to death. The skin was peeled off and a leaked dye amount at the blue dyed portion was measured according to the method of Katayama et al. [Microbiol. Immunol., 22, 89 (1978)]. That is, the blue dyed portion was cut off with scissors, put into a test tube charged with 1 ml of 1 N potassium hydroxide and incubated at 37.degree. C. for 24 hours. After 9 ml of a mixture of 0.6 N phosphate : acetone (5:13) was added to the system, the mixture was shaken followed by centrifugation at 2500 rpm for 10 minutes. The absorbancy of the supernatant at 620 nm was measured and the leaked dye amount was quantitatively determined by comparison with a calibration curve previously prepared. A value of one rat was obtained from a mean value of the two portions and an inhibition rate of each rat was calculated according to the following equation. ##EQU1##
The case showing that the inhibition rate is 50% or more is judged to be positive in the PCA inhibition activity and the minimum dose in which at least one out of 3 rats was recognized to be positive was defined as the minimum effective dose (MED) of the test compound.
The results are shown in Table 3.
Acute Toxicity Test
Using three dd strain male mice weighing 20.+-.1 g, a test compound was orally (po; 300 mg/kg) or intraperitoneally (ip; 100 mg/kg) administered. MLD (the minimum lethal dose) was determined by observing the mortality for seven days after administration.
The results are shown in Table 3.

Binding study using .sup.3 H-U46619 (TXA.sub.2 Receptor Binding Activities Test)
Receptor binding was determined by a modified method of Kattelman et al. [Thrombosis Research, 41, 471 (1986)].
To a washed platelet suspension (1.times.10.sup.8 platelets) of guinea pig were added 12 nM of tritium-labeled U46619 (.sup.3 H-U46619; NEN Co., Ltd.) and a test compound (final concentration: 1 .mu.M) solution. After keeping at 37.degree. C. for 20 minutes, the mixture was rapidly filtered through a glass fiber filter paper (GF/C; Whatman). Immediately, the filter paper was washed 5 times with 3 ml of ice-cold 50 mM Tris-hydroxymethylaminomethane buffer (containing 100 mM sodium chloride). The glass fiber filter was transferred to a vial and a scintillator (Ex-H; manufactured by Wako Pure Chemical Industries Co., Ltd.) was added thereto. The radioactivity was determined with a liquid scintillation counter.
It is already known that .sup.3 H-U46619 is capable of binding with TXA.sub.2 receptor (see the publication supra). An inhibitory activity of the test compound against this binding means an ability of binding with the TXA.sub.2 receptor. It is also known that a good relationship exists between this binding activity and the anti-platelet activity (TXA.sub.2 antagonizing test).
An inhibitory activity (binding activity) of the test compound was calculated by the following equation. ##EQU2##
The results are shown in Table 4.

As demonstrated in Table 4, Compound (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof have an excellent binding ability to TXA.sub.2 receptor.
This inhibitory activity is not observed with hitherto known antiallergic agents, for example, Ketotifen [Merck Index, 10th edition, page 762 (1983)] and known antiallergic agents such as Compound (A) (Japanese Published Unexamined Patent Application No. 28972/1985) and Compound (B) (Japanese Published Unexamined Patent Application No. 10784/1988); one of excellent activity of Compound (I) is TXA.sub.2 receptor binding ability.
Binding study using .sup.3 H-Pyrilamine (Histamine H.sub.1 receptor binding)
Receptor binding was determined by the method of chang et al. [J. Neurochem., 32, 1953 (1979)].
The cerebellum of guinea pig was suspended in a 40-fold mount (V/W) of chilled 50 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.5) with Polytron Homogenizer (Kinematica Co., Ltd.). The suspension was centrifuged (35,500.times.g, 10 minutes). The resulting precipitates were resuspended in an equal amount of fresh buffer followed by centrifugation. A 100-fold amount v/W) of chilled buffer was added to the final precipitates.
To 1 ml of the membrane suspension adjusted as described above were added 50 .mu.l of tritium-labeled pyrilamine (.sup.3 H-pyrilamine; NEN Co., Ltd.) and 50 .mu.l of a test compound. The mixture was allowed to stand at 25.degree. C. for 30 minutes, 4 ml of chilled buffer was added thereto. The mixture was rapidly filtered through a glass fiber filter (GF/C; Whatman). The filter paper was further washed three times with 5 ml of buffer. Hereafter procedures were performed in a manner similar to the TXA.sub.2 receptor binding test to determine radioactivity.
An inhibitory activity of the test compound against H.sub.1 receptor was calculated by the following equation. ##EQU3##
The amount bound in the presence of a test compound is an amount of .sup.3 H-pyrilamine-bound radioactivity in the presence of a test compound in various concentrations.
Inhibitory activity of the test compounds at 10.sup.-6 M are shown in table 5.

EXAMPLE 47
Methyl 11-[2-(4-cinnamyl-1-piperazinyl)ethyl]thio-6,11-dihydrodibenz[b,e]oxepin-2-carboxylate (Compound 20a)
Compound k, 2.0 g, obtained in Reference Example 11 and 1.2 g of cinnamyl bromide were stirred in 100 ml of isopropanol for 4 hours at room temperature. The mixture was extracted with 300 ml of ethyl acetate. The extract was washed in succession with saturated sodium bicarbonate aqueous solution and saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution. After drying over anhydrous sodium sulfate, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The obtained residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (eluent; hexane:ethyl acetate:triethylamine=10:10:1) to give 0.8 g of the objective compound as pale yellow oil.
