The subsequent reduction of a nitro group is carried out for example with hydrogen and a catalyst such as palladium on activated charcoal, platinum dioxide or Raney nickel, or using other reducing agents such as iron or zinc in the presence of an acid such as acetic acid.


Subsequent nitrosation of an imino group followed by reduction to obtain the N-amino-imino compound is carried out for example so that the imino compound is nitrosated with an alkyl nitrite such as isoamyl nitrite and the N-nitroso-imino compound formed is then reduced directly to form the N-amino-imino compound; zinc, for example, in the presence of an acid such as acetic acid is suitable for this purpose.

Thus, for example, cis/trans mixtures may be resolved into their cis and trans isomers, and compounds with at least one optically active carbon atom may be separated into their enantiomers.


Thus, for example, the cis/trans mixtures may be resolved by chromatography into the cis and trans isomers thereof, the compounds of general formula I obtained which occur as racemates may be separated by methods known per se (cf. Allinger N. L. and Eliel E. L. in “Topics in Stereochemistry”, Vol. 6, Wiley Interscience, 1971) into their optical antipodes and compounds of general formula I with at least 2 asymmetric carbon atoms may be resolved into their diastereomers on the basis of their physical-chemical differences using methods known per se, e.g. by chromatography and/or fractional crystallisation, and, if these compounds are obtained in racemic form, they may subsequently be resolved into the enantiomers as mentioned above.


The enantiomers are preferably separated by column separation on chiral phases or by recrystallisation from an optically active solvent or by reacting with an optically active substance which forms salts or derivatives such as e.g. esters or amides with the racemic compound, particularly acids and the activated derivatives or alcohols thereof, and separating the diastereomeric mixture of salts or derivatives thus obtained, e.g. on the basis of their differences in solubility, whilst the free antipodes may be released from the pure diastereomeric salts or derivatives by the action of suitable agents. Optically active acids in common use are e.g. the D- and L-forms of tartaric acid or dibenzoyltartaric acid, di-o-tolyltartaric acid, malic acid, mandelic acid, camphorsulphonic acid, glutamic acid, aspartic acid or quinic acid. An optically active alcohol may be for example (+) or (−)-menthol and an optically active acyl group in amides, for example, may be a (+)- or (−)-menthyloxycarbonyl.


Furthermore, the compounds of formula I may be converted into the salts thereof, particularly for pharmaceutical use into the physiologically acceptable salts with inorganic or organic acids. Acids which may be used for this purpose include for example hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulphuric acid, methanesulphonic acid, phosphoric acid, fumaric acid, succinic acid, lactic acid, citric acid, tartaric acid or maleic acid.


Moreover, if the new compounds of formula I thus obtained contain a carboxy group, they may subsequently, if desired, be converted into the salts thereof with inorganic or organic bases, particularly for pharmaceutical use into the physiologically acceptable salts thereof. Suitable bases for this purpose include for example sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, arginine, cyclohexylamine, ethanolamine, diethanolamine and triethanolamine.


The compounds of general formulae III to VI used as starting materials are either known from the literature or may be obtained by methods known from the literature (cf. Examples I to XXXI).


For example, a starting compound of general formula III may be obtained by reacting a theophylline derivative halogenated in the 8 position with a correspondingly substituted alkyl halide.


As already mentioned hereinbefore, the compounds of general formula I according to the invention and the physiologically acceptable salts thereof have valuable pharmacological properties, particularly an inhibiting effect on the enzyme DPP-IV.


The biological properties of the new compounds were investigated as follows:


The ability of the substances and their corresponding salts to inhibit the DPP-IV activity can be demonstrated in an experiment in which an extract of the human colon carcinoma cell line Caco-2 is used as the DPP IV source. This cell line was obtained from the American Type Culture Collection (ATCC HTB 37). The differentiation of the cells in order to induce the DPP-IV expression was carried out in accordance with the description by Reiher et al. in an article entitled “Increased expression of intestinal cell line Caco-2”, which appeared in Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. Vol. 90, pp. 5757-5761 (1993). The cell extract was obtained from cells solubilised in a buffer (10 mM Tris HCl, 0.15 M NaCl, 0.04 t.i.u. aprotinin, 0.5% Nonidet-P40, pH 8.0) by centrifugation at 35,000 g for 30 minutes at 4° C. (to remove cell debris).


The DPP-IV assay was carried out as follows:


50 μl of substrate solution (AFC; AFC is amido-4-trifluoromethylcoumarin), final concentration 100 μM, were placed in black microtitre plates. 20 μl of assay buffer (final concentrations 50 mM Tris HCl pH 7.8, 50 mM NaCl, 1% DMSO) was pipetted in. The reaction was started by the addition of 30 μl of solubilised Caco-2 protein (final concentration 0.14 μg of protein per well). The test substances under investigation were typically added prediluted to 20 μl, while the volume of assay buffer was then reduced accordingly. The reaction was carried out at ambient temperature, the incubation period was 60 minutes. Then the fluorescence was measured in a Victor 1420 Multilabel Counter, with the excitation wavelength at 405 nm and the emission wavelength at 535 nm. Dummy values (corresponding to 0% activity) were obtained in mixtures with no Caco-2 protein (volume replaced by assay buffer), control values (corresponding to 100% activity) were obtained in mixtures without any added substance. The potency of the test substances in question, expressed as IC50 values, were calculated from dosage/activity curves consisting of 11 measured points in each case. The following results were obtained:

The compounds prepared according to the invention are well tolerated as no toxic side effects could be detected in rats after the oral administration of 30 mg/kg of the compound of Example 1(2), for example.


In view of their ability to inhibit DPP-IV activity, the compounds of general formula I according to the invention and the corresponding pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are suitable for influencing any conditions or diseases which can be affected by the inhibition of the DPP-IV activity. It is therefore to be expected that the compounds according to the invention will be suitable for the prevention or treatment of diseases or conditions such as type I and type II diabetes mellitus, diabetic complications, metabolic acidosis or ketosis, insulin resistance, dyslipidaemias of various origins, arthritis, atherosclerosis and related diseases, obesity, allograft transplantation and osteoporosis caused by calcitonin. In addition, these substances are suitable for preventing B-cell degeneration such as e.g. apoptosis or necrosis of pancreatic B-cells. The substances are also suitable for improving or restoring the function of pancreatic cells and additionally increasing the size and number of pancreatic B-cells. Additionally, on the basis of the role of the glucagon-like peptides such as e.g. GLP-1 and GLP-2 and their link with DPP-IV inhibition, it is expected that the compounds according to the invention will be suitable for achieving, inter alia, a sedative or tranquillising effect, as well as having a favourable effect on catabolic states after operations or hormonal stress responses or possibly reducing mortality and morbidity after myocardial infarct. Moreover, they are suitable for treating any conditions connected with the effects mentioned above and mediated by GLP-1 or GLP-2. The compounds according to the invention may also be used as diuretics or antihypertensives and are suitable for preventing and treating acute kidney failure. They are also suitable for preventing and treating chronic inflammatory bowel diseases. It is also expected that DPP-IV inhibitors and hence the compounds according to the invention can be used to treat infertility or to improve fertility in humans or mammals, particularly if the infertility is connected with insulin resistance or with polycystic ovary syndrome. In addition, the substances are suitable for treating growth hormone deficiencies connected with restricted growth.


The compounds according to the invention may also be used in conjunction with other active substances. Suitable therapeutic agents for such combinations include for example antidiabetic agents such metformin, sulphonylureas (e.g. glibenclamid, tolbutamide, glimepiride), nateglinide, repaglinide, thiazolidinediones (e.g. rosiglitazone, pioglitazone), PPAR-gamma-agonists (e.g. GI 262570), alpha-glucosidase inhibitors (e.g. acarbose, voglibose), alpha2-antagonists, insulin and insulin analogues, GLP-1 and GLP-1 analogues (e.g. exendin) or amylin. The list also includes inhibitors of protein tyrosinephosphatase 1, substances that affect deregulated glucose production in the liver, such as e.g. inhibitors of glucose-6-phosphatase, or fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase, glycogen phosphorylase, glucagon receptor antagonists and inhibitors of phosphoenol pyruvate carboxykinase, glycogen synthase kinase or pyruvate dehydrokinase, lipid lowering agents such as for example HMG-CoA-reductase inhibitors (e.g. simvastatin, atorvastatin) or fibrates (e.g. bezafibrat, fenofibrat) or active substances for treating obesity, such as sibutramin or tetrahydrolipstatin or β3-agonists such as SB-418790 or AD-9677.


Moreover, combinations with drugs for influencing high blood pressure such as e.g. All antagonists or ACE inhibitors, diuretics, 1-blockers and others or combinations thereof are suitable.


The dosage required to achieve such an effect is appropriately 1 to 100 mg, preferably 1 to 30 mg, by intravenous route, and 1 to 1000 mg, preferably 1 to 100 mg, by oral route, in each case administered 1 to 4 times a day. For this purpose, the compounds of formula I prepared according to the invention may be formulated, optionally together with other active substances, together with one or more inert conventional carriers and/or diluents, e.g. with corn starch, lactose, glucose, microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, citric acid, tartaric acid, water, water/ethanol, water/glycerol, water/sorbitol, water/polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol, cetylstearyl alcohol, carboxymethylcellulose or fatty substances such as hard fat or suitable mixtures thereof, to produce conventional galenic preparations such as plain or coated tablets, capsules, powders, suspensions or suppositories.
