2-aminopyridines containing fused ring substituents
The present invention relates to 2-aminopyridine derivatives of the formula 1
[0001] The present invention relates to certain 2-aminopyridines containing fused ring substituents that exhibit activity as nitric oxide synthase (NOS) inhibitors, to pharmaceutical compositions containing them and to their use in the treatment and prevention of central nervous system disorders, inflammatory disorders, septic shock and other disorders.
[0002] There are three known isoforms of NOS—an inducible form (I-NOS) and two constitutive forms referred to as, respectively, neuronal NOS (N-NOS) and endothelial NOS (E-NOS). Each of these enzymes carries out the conversion of arginine to citrulline while producing a molecule of nitric oxide (NO) in response to various stimuli. It is believed that excess nitric oxide (NO) production by NOS plays a role in the pathology of a number of disorders and conditions in mammals. For example, NO produced by I-NOS is thought to play a role in diseases that involve systemic hypotension such as toxic shock and therapy with certain cytokines. It has been shown that cancer patients treated with cytokines such as interleukin 1 (IL-1), interleukin 2 (IL-2) or tumor necrosis factor (TNF) suffer cytokine-induced shock and hypotension due to NO produced from macrophages, i.e., inducible NOS (I-NOS), see Chemical & Engineering News, December 20, p. 33, (1993). I-NOS inhibitors can reverse this. It is also believed that I-NOS plays a role in the pathology of diseases of the central nervous system such as ischemia. For example, inhibition of I-NOS has been shown to ameliorate cerebral ischemic damage in rats, see Am. J. Physiol., 268, p. R286 (1995)). Suppression of adjuvant induced arthritis by selective inhibition of I-NOS is reported in Eur. J. Pharmacol., 273, p. 15-24 (1995).
[0003] NO produced by N-NOS is thought to play a role in diseases such as cerebral ischemia, pain, and opiate tolerance. For example, inhibition of N-NOS decreases infarct volume after proximal middle cerebral artery occlusion in the rat, see J. Cerebr. Blood Flow Metab., 14, p. 924-929 (1994). N-NOS inhibition has also been shown to be effective in antinociception, as evidenced by activity in the late phase of the formalin-induced hindpaw licking and acetic acid-induced abdominal constriction assays, see Br. J. Pharmacol., 110, p. 219-224 (1993). In addition, subcutaneous injection of Freund's adjuvant in the rat induces an increase in NOS-positive neurons in the spinal cord that is manifested in increased sensitivity to pain, which can be treated with NOS inhibitors, see Japanese Journal of Pharmacology, 75, p. 327-335 (1997). Finally, opioid withdrawal in rodents has been reported to be reduced by N-NOS inhibition, see Neuropsychopharmacol., 13, p. 269-293 (1995).

[0143] The compound of the formula VI can be formed in the following manner. First, the compound of formula V is reacted with N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) and bis-(1-cyano1-aza)-cyclohexane in carbon tetrachloride and refluxed for about 8 hours, with additional portions of the initiator being added at about 1, 2 and 4 hours. After evaporation of the solvent, the product of this reaction is reacted with triethylammonium cyanide in methylene chloride at about room temperature to form the compound of formula VI.
[0144] Saturation of a solution of the compound of formula VI in ethanol with hydrogen chloride, followed by refluxing the mixture and then heating in aqueous hydrochloric acid, yields the compound of formula VII.
[0145] The compound of the formula VII that is formed in the preceding step can be converted into the compound of formula IA in the following manner. First, the compound of formula VII is reacted with the appropriate compound of the formula R2R1NH and N-ethyl-N-dimethylaminopropyl carbodiimide (EDAC) in the presence of a base. Examples of suitable bases are those selected from trialkylamines, alkali metal carbonates and alkaline earth metal carbonates. This reaction is typically conducted in a solvent such as acetonitrile, methylene chloride or N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), at a temperature from about room temperature to about 100° C., preferably at about room temperature. Preferably, the reaction is conducted in the presence of a catalytic additive such as N-hydroxysuccinamide or hydroxybenzotriazole.
[0146] The product of the foregoing reaction is then reduced using methods well known to those of skill in the art For example, the reduction can be carried out using lithium aluminum hydride in tetrahydrofuran, with or without aluminum chloride, or using borane methyl sulfide in tetrahydrofuran, at a temperature of about −78° C. to about 0° C., preferably at about −70° C., to yield the desired compound of formula IA.
[0147] Referring to scheme 2, the compound of formula VIII is reacted with tetrabutylammonium tribromide in 1,2-dichloroethane at about room temperature. The product of this reaction is then treated with benzyl bromide and potassium carbonate in a solvent such as acetonitite, at about the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture, to form the compound of formula IX.
[0148] The compound of formula IX is then converted into 1-benzyloxy-naphthalene-4-boronic acid by the procedure described above for preparing the boronic acid derivative of formula III in Scheme 1.
[0149] Reaction of 1-benzyoxy-naphthalene-4-boronic acid with the compound of formula X in an ethanol solvent, in the presence of sodium carbonate and tetrakistriphenyl palladium, at about the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture, yields the compound of formula XI.
[0150] The compound of formula XI can be converted into the compound of formula XIII using the following two step process. The compound of formula XI is reacted with ammonium formate and ten percent palladium on carbon, in an ethanol solvent, at about the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture, to yield the analogous compound to that having formula XI, wherein the benzyloxy group of formula XI is replaced with a hydroxy group. The compound of formula XII is then formed by reacting the above hydroxy derivative with 2-bromoethylacetate and potassium carbonate in acetonitrile at about the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture.
[0151] Basic hydrolysis of the compound of formula XII, followed by reaction with N-ethyl-N-3-dimethylaminopropylcarbodiimide (EDAC) and the appropriate compound having the formula R1R2NH yields the desired compound of the formula XIII. The base hydrolysis is typically carried out using an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal hydroxide in a mixture of THF, methanol and water at about room temperature. The reaction with R1R2NH and EDAC is generally carried out using the procedure described above for the preparation of compounds of the formula IA from those of formula VII in Scheme 1.
[0152] The compound of formula XIII can be converted into the desired compound of formula IB as follows. The compound of formula XIII is reduced to form the corresponding compound wherein the carbonyl group is replaced by a methylene group, after which the 2,5-dimethylpyrrolyl protecting group is removed. The reduction can be carried out using methods well known to those of skill in the art, for example, using lithium aluminum hydride in tetrahydrofuran, with or without aluminum chloride, or using borane methyl sulfide in tetrahydrofuran, at a temperature of about −78° C. to about 0° C., preferably at about −70° C.
[0153] Removal of the 2,5-dimethylpyrrolyl protecting group can be accomplished by reaction with hydroxylamine hydrochloride. This reaction is generally carried out in an alcoholic or aqueous alcoholic solvent at a temperature from about room temperature to about the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture, preferably at about the reflux temperature, for about 8 to about 72 hours.
[0154] Compounds of the formula I that are identical to those of formula IB but for the fact that ring A is other than benzo can be prepared in an analogous fashion, starting with the appropriate compound that is analogous to that of formula VIII, wherein the unsubstituted benzo ring of formula VIII is replaced by a ring other than benzo that is within the definition of ring A.
[0155] Referring to Scheme 3, the known 1-fluoronaphthalene (XIV) is brominated with bromine in acetic acid at a temperature from about room temperature to about the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture for about to about 48 hours, and the bromide cooled to about −70° C. in dry tetrahydrofuran (THF), and then a solution of n-butyl lithium is added to it. The resulting solution is then treated with triethyl borate and allowed to warm to room temperature to form the compound of formula XV. The compound of formula XV is reacted with the compound of formula IV to form the compound of formula XVI. This reaction is generally carried out in an aqueous ethanol solvent, in the presence of sodium carbonate and tetrakistriphenylphoshine palladium, at about the reflux temperature. The compound of formula XVI is then treated with an alkali metal alkoxide prepared from a compound of the formula HO(CH2)nNR1R2 and sodium hydride in a polar solvent such as dimethylformamide, at a temperature from room temperature to 140° C. for about 1 to about 48 hours. This reaction produces the corresponding compound of formula XVII, which is then deblocked to remove the 2,5-dimethylpyrrolyl protecting group by reaction with hydroxylamine hydrochloride. This reaction is generally carried out in an alcoholic or aqueous alcoholic solvent, at a temperature from about room temperature to about the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture, preferably at about the reflux temperature, for about 8 to about 72 hours.
[0156] Compounds of the formula I that are identical to those of formula IA and IB but for the fact that ring A is other than benzo can be prepared in an analogous fashion, starting with the appropriate starting materials that are analogous to those of formulas VII and XIV, on Schemes 1, 2 and 3 respectively, wherein the unsubstituted benzo ring of such starting materials is replaced by a ring other than benzo that is within the definition of ring A.
[0157] The preparation of other compounds of the formula I not specifically described in the foregoing experimental section can be accomplished using combinations of the reactions described above that will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
[0158] In each of the reactions discussed or illustrated above, pressure is not critical unless otherwise indicated. Pressures from about 0.5 atmospheres to about 5 atmospheres are generally acceptable, and ambient pressure, i.e., about 1 atmosphere, is preferred as a matter of convenience.
[0159] The compounds of formulae I (“the active compounds of this invention”) which are basic in nature are capable of forming a wide variety of different salts with various inorganic and organic acids. Although such salts must be pharmaceutically acceptable for administration to animals, it is often desirable in practice to initially isolate a compound of the formula I from the reaction mixture as a pharmaceutically unacceptable salt and then simply convert the latter back to the free base compound by treatment with an alkaline reagent and subsequently convert the latter free base to a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt. The acid addition salts of the active base compounds of, this invention are readily prepared by treating the base compound with a substantially equivalent amount of the chosen mineral or organic acid in an aqueous solvent medium or in a suitable organic solvent, such as methanol or ethanol. Upon careful evaporation of the solvent, the desired solid salt is readily obtained.
[0160] The active compounds of this invention and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts are useful as NOS inhibitors i.e., they possess the ability to inhibit the NOS enzyme in mammals, and therefore they are able to function as therapeutic agents in the treatment of the aforementioned disorders and diseases in an afflicted mammal.
[0161] The active compounds of this invention and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be administered via either the oral, parenteral or topical routes. In general, these compounds are most desirably administered in dosages ranging from about 0.01 to about 250 mg per day, in single or divided doses (i.e., from 1 to 4 doses per day), although variations will necessarily occur depending upon the species, weight and condition of the subject being treated and the particular route of administration chosen. However, a dosage level that is in the range of about 0.07 mg to about 21 mg per kg of body weight per day is most desirably employed. Variations may nevertheless occur depending upon the species of animal being treated and its individual response to said medicament, as well as on the type of pharmaceutical formulation chosen and the time period and interval at which such administration is carried out. In some instances, dosage levels below the lower limit of the aforesaid range may be more than adequate, while in other cases still larger doses may be employed without causing any harmful side effect, provided that such larger doses are first divided into several small doses for administration throughout the day.
[0162] The active compounds of the invention may be administered alone or in combination with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or diluents by either of the three routes previously indicated, and such administration may be carried out in single or multiple doses. More particularly, the novel therapeutic agents of this invention can be administered in a wide variety of different dosage forms, i.e., they may be combined with various pharmaceutically acceptable inert carriers in the form of tablets, capsules, lozenges, troches, hard candies, powders, sprays, creams, salves, suppositories, jellies, gels, pastes, lotions, ointments, aqueous suspensions, injectable solutions, elixirs, syrups, and the like. Such carriers include solid diluents or fillers, sterile aqueous media and various non-toxic organic solvents, etc. Moreover, oral pharmaceutical compositions can be suitably sweetened and/or flavored. In general, the therapeutically-effective compounds of this invention are present in such dosage forms at concentration levels ranging from about 5.0% to about 70% by weight.
[0163] For oral administration, tablets containing various excipients such as microcrystalline cellulose, sodium citrate, calcium carbonate, dicalcium phosphate and glycine may be employed along with various disintegrants such as starch (and preferably corn, potato or tapioca starch), alginic acid and certain complex silicates, together with granulation binders like polyvinylpyrrolidone, sucrose, gelatin and acacia. Additionally, lubricating agents such as magnesium stearate, sodium lauryl sulfate and talc are often very useful for tabletting purposes. Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in gelatin capsules; preferred materials in this connection also include lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polyethylene glycols. When aqueous suspensions and/or elixirs are desired for oral administration, the active ingredient may be combined with various sweetening or flavoring agents, coloring matter or dyes, and, if so desired, emulsifying and/or suspending agents as well, together with such diluents as water, ethanol, propylene glycol, glycerin and various like combinations thereof.
[0164] For parenteral administration, solutions of an active compound of the present invention in either sesame or peanut oil or in aqueous propylene glycol may be employed. The aqueous solutions should be suitably buffered (preferably pH greater than 8) if necessary and the liquid diluent first rendered isotonic. These aqueous solutions are suitable for intravenous injection purposes. The oily solutions are suitable for intraarticular, intramuscular and subcutaneous injection purposes. The preparation of all these solutions under sterile conditions is readily accomplished by standard pharmaceutical techniques well known to those skilled in the art.
[0165] Additionally, it is also possible to administer the active compounds of the present invention topically when treating inflammatory conditions of the skin and this may be done by way of creams, jellies, gels, pastes, patches, ointments and the like, in accordance with standard pharmaceutical practice.
[0166] The ability of compounds of the formulae I to inhibit NOS may be determined using procedures described in the literature. The ability of compounds of the formulae I to inhibit endothelial NOS may be determined by using the procedures described by Schmidt et al. in Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A, 88, pp. 365-369 (1991) and by Pollock et al., in Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A, 88, pp. 10480-10484 (1991). The ability of compounds of the formulae I to inhibit inducible NOS may be determined using the procedures described by Schmidt et al., in Proc. Natl. Acad, Sci. U.S.A, 88 pp. 365-369 (1991) and by Garvey et al. in J. Biol. Chem., 269, pp. 26669-26676 (1994). The ability of the compounds of the formulae I to inhibit neuronal NOS may be determined using the procedure described by Bredt and Snyder in Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A, 87, 682-685 (1990).
[0167] Of sixteen compounds of the formula I that were tested, all exhibited an IC50<10 &mgr;M for inhibition of either inducible or neuronal NOS.

[0616] C. 6-[4-Piperidin-3-ylmethoxy)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-1-yl]-pyridin-2-ylamine
[0617] To a three-necked round-bottomed flask equipped with condenser, septum and N2 inlet were added 4.5 g (33.6 mmol) aluminum chloride and 150 mL dry 1,2-dimethoxyethane. The reaction was cooled to 0° C., and 79 mL (79 mmol) of a 1.0M solution of lithium aluminum hydride in tetrahydrofuran was added. The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 30 min, then cooled to −70° C., and a solution of 2.77 g (5.6 mmol) 6-[4-N-(4-toluenesulfonyl)- (piperidin-3-ylmethoxy)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-naphthalen-1-yl]-pyridin-2-ylamine in 150 mL dry 1,2-dimethoxyethane was added over 10 min. The reaction was stirred and warmed to room temperature, then heated at reflux for 3 days. The reaction was cooled, quenched carefully with 1N hydrochloric acid, then adjusted to pH 12 with 6N sodium hydroxide solution. The mixture was extracted with several portions of methylene chloride, and the organic layer washed with aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and brine, dried over sodium sulfate, and evaporated. The residue was chromatographed using methanol/methylene chloride/triethylamine as eluant to afford 784 mg (41.5%) of an off-white solid, which was converted to the hydrochloride salt.
