DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTIONThis invention in its broadest aspects relates to the substituted ureido amino and imino acids and esters of formula I above, to compositions and the method of using such compounds as pharmaceutical agents.
The term lower alkyl used in defining various symbols refers to straight or branched chain radicals having up to seven carbons. The preferred lower alkyl groups are up to four carbons with methyl and ethyl most preferred. Similarly the terms lower alkoxy and lower alkylthio refer to such lower alkyl groups attached to an oxygen or sulfur.
The term cycloalkyl refers to saturated rings of 4 to 7 carbon atoms with cyclopentyl and cyclohexyl being most preferred.
The term halogen refers to chloro, bromo and fluoro.
The term halo substituted lower alkyl refers to such lower alkyl groups described above in which one or more hydrogens have been replaced by chloro, bromo or fluoro groups such as trifluoromethyl, which is preferred, pentafluoroethyl, 2,2,2-trichloroethyl, chloromethyl, bromomethyl, etc.
The symbols ##STR27## represent that the alkylene bridge is attached to an available carbon atom.
The compounds of formula I wherein at least one of R.sub.3 and R is other than hydrogen can be prepared by various methods. For example a carboxylic acid ester compound of the formula ##STR28## wherein R.sub.2 is lower alkyl, benzyl or benzhydryl is coupled with the acid chloride of the formula ##STR29## in the presence of N-methyl morphline wherein R.sub.6 in the definition of X is an easily removable ester protecting group such as benzyl, benzhydryl or lower alkyl. The R.sub.2 and R.sub.6 ester groups can be removed by conventional procedures, i.e. hydrogenation when R.sub.2 or R.sub.6 is benzyl or benzhydryl, treatment with sodium or lithium hydroxide when R.sub.2 or R.sub.6 is an alkyl such as methyl or ethyl, or treatment with trifluoroacetic acid when R.sub.2 or R.sub.6 is t-butyl, to yield the products of formula I wherein R.sub.2 and R.sub.6 are hydrogen.
The intermediates of formula II wherein R.sub.3 is an acyl group and R is hydrogen can be prepared as follows. An amino compound of the formula ##STR30## is reacted with the particular acyl chloride in the presence of pyridine followed by treatment with trifluoroacetic acid to remove the t-butoxycarbonyl protecting group.
The intermediates of formula II wherein R and R.sub.3 are lower alkyl, aralkyl, or heteroalkyl or R.sub.3 is acyl can be prepared as follows. An amino compound of the formula ##STR31## wherein R.sub.2 is an ester group is treated with trifluoroacetic acid to yield the acetate ##STR32##
When R.sub.1 is other than hydrogen, the acetate of formula VI is reacted with the alkylating agent of the formula
R.sub.1 -halo (VII)
in the presence of base, such as sodium hydride, to give ##STR33## Hydrogenation in the presence of palladium on carbon catalyst gives the amine of the formula ##STR34##
The acetate of formula IX is then reacted with the aldehyde of the formula ##STR35## in ethanol under a hydrogen atmosphere in the presence of a Raney nickel catalyst to give ##STR36##
The compound of formula XI can then be reacted with an aldehyde of the formula ##STR37## under the same conditions described above or reacted with an acyl chloride in the presence of pyridine to give ##STR38## Treatment with sodium borohydride in ethanol removes the trifluoroacetate and gives the intermediate of formula II.
The intermediates of formula II wherein R is hydrogen and R.sub.3 is acyl can also be prepared by treating an acyl azetidinone of the formula ##STR39## with sodium methoxide in methanol to give which is then treated to introduce the R.sub.2 ester group.
The compounds of formula I wherein R and R.sub.3 both hydrogen can be prepared by reacting the amine of formula IX with N-carboethoxy phthalimide and potassium carbonate in aqueous dioxane to give (XVI) ##STR40## Treatment with sodium borohydride gives the intermediate of the formula ##STR41##
The intermediate of formula XVII is then coupled with the acid chloride of formula III to ##STR42## Treatment with a slight excess of methyl hydrazine in benzene removes the phthalimido protecting group.
The acid chloride amino or imino acid ester of formula III is prepared by treating the corresponding amino or imino acid ester hydrochloride with phosgene in the presence of N-methyl morpholine.
In the above reactions if either R.sub.1 or R.sub.5 or both are ##STR43## then the hydroxyl, amino, imidazolyl, mercaptan, or guanidinyl function should be protected during the reaction. Suitable protecting groups include benzoyloxycarbonyl, t-butoxycarbonyl, benzyl, benzhydryl, trityl, etc., and nitro in the case of guanidinyl. The protecting group is removed by hydrogenation, treatment with acid, or by other known means following completion of the reaction.
The ester products of formula I wherein R.sub.6 is ##STR44## may be obtained by employing the imino or amino acid of formula III in the above reactions with the ester group already in place. Such ester reactants can be prepared by treating the imino or amino acid with an acid chloride such as ##STR45## so as to protect the N-atom. The protected compound is then reacted in the presence of a base with a compound of the formula ##STR46## wherein L is a leaving group such as chlorine, bromine, tolylsulfonyl, etc., followed by removal of the N-protecting group such as by treatment with acid or hydrogenation.
The ester products of formula I wherein R.sub.6 is ##STR47## can also be obtained by treating the product of formula I wherein R.sub.6 is hydrogen with a molar equivalent of the compound of formula XIX. The diester products wherein R.sub.2 and R.sub.6 are the same and are ##STR48## can be obtained by treating the product of formula I wherein R.sub.2 and R.sub.6 are both hydrogen or an alkali metal salt with two or more equivalents of the compound of formula XIX.
The ester products of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is ##STR49## can be obtained by treating the product of formula I wherein R.sub.2 is hydrogen or an alkali metal salt and R.sub.6 is benzyl or benzhydryl with the compound of formula XIX in the presence of base. Removal of the R.sub.6 ester group such as by hydrogenation yields the products of formula I wherein ##STR50## and R.sub.6 is hydrogen.

The compounds of formula I wherein R.sub.2 or R.sub.6 or both are hydrogen form salts with a variety of inorganic or organic bases. The non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable salts are preferred, although other salts are also useful in isolation or purifying the product. Such pharmaceutically acceptable salts include alkali metal salts such as sodium, potassium or lithium, alkaline earth metal salts such as calcium or magnesium, and salts derived from amino acids such as arginine, lysine, etc. The salts are obtained by reacting the acid form of the compound with an equivalent of the base supplying the desired ion in a medium in which the salt precipitates or in aqueous medium and then lyophilizing.
Also, the compounds of formula I containing a free amino function form salts with a variety of inorganic and organic acids. Again, the non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable salts are preferred, although other salts are also useful in isolating or purifying the product. Such pharmaceutically acceptable salts include those formed with hydrochloric acid, methanesulfonic acid, sulfuric acid, maleic acid, etc. The salts are obtained by reacting the product with an equivalent amount of the acid in a medium in which the salt precipitates.
The compounds of formula I contain an asymmetric center in the carboxyl sidechain represented by *. Thus, the compounds of formula I can exist in diasteroisomeric forms or in mixtures thereof. The above described processes can utilize racemates, enantiomers or diastereomers as starting materials. When diastereomeric products are prepared, they can be separated by conventional chromatographic or fractional crystallization methods.
The products of formula I wherein the imino acid ring is monosubstituted also give rise to cis-trans isomerism. The configuration of the final product will depend upon the configuration of the R.sub.7, R.sub.8 and R.sub.9 substituent in the starting material of formula III.
The compounds of formula I, and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, are hypotensive agents. They inhibit the conversion of the decapeptide angiotensin I to angiotensin II and, therefore, are useful in reducing or relieving angiotensin related hypertension. The action of the enzyme renin on angiotensinagen, a pseudoglobulin in blood plasma, produces angiotensin I. Angiotensin I is converted by angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) to angiotensin II. The latter is an active pressor substance which has been implicated as the causative agent in several forms of hypertension in various mammalian species, e.g., humans. The compounds of this invention intervene in the angiotensinagen .fwdarw.(renin).fwdarw.angiotensin I.fwdarw.(ACE).fwdarw.angiotensin II sequence by inhibiting angiotensin converting enzyme and reducing or eliminating the formation of the pressor substance angiotensin II. Thus by the administration of a composition containing one (or a combination) of the compounds of this invention, angiotensin dependent hypertension in a species of mammal (e.g., humans) suffering therefrom is alleviated. A single dose, or preferably two to four divided daily doses, provided on a basis of about 0.1 to 100 mg., preferably about 1 to 25 mg. per kg. of body weight per day is appropriate to reduce blood pressure. The substance is preferably administered orally, but parenteral routes such as the subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous or intraperitoneal routes can also be employed.
The compounds of this invention can also be formulated in combination with a diuretic for the treatment of hypertension. A combination product comprising a compound of this invention and a diuretic can be administered in a effective amount which comprises a total daily dosage of about 30 to 600 mg., preferably about 30 to 330 mg. of a compound of this invention, and about 15 to 300 mg., preferably about 15 to 200 mg. of the diuretic, to a mammalian species in need thereof. Exemplary of the diuretics contemplated for use in combination with a compound of this invention are the thiazide diuretics, e.g., chlorothiazide, hydrochlorothiazide, flumethiazide, hydroflumethiazide, bendroflumethiazide, methyclothiazide, trichloromethiazide, polythiazide or benzthiazide as well as ethacrynic acid, ticrynafen, chlorthalidone, furosemide, musolimine, bumetanide, triamterene, amiloride and spironolactone and salts of such compounds.
The compounds of formula I can be formulated for use in the reduction of blood pressure in compositions such as tablets, capsules or elixirs for oral administration, or in sterile solutions or suspensions for parenteral administration. About 10 to 500 mg. of a compound of formula I is compounded with physiologically acceptable vehicle, carrier, excipient, binder, preservative, stabilizer, flavor, etc., in a unit dosage form as called for by accepted pharmaceutical practice. The amount of active substance in these compositions or preparations is such that a suitable dosage in the range indicated is obtained.
The compounds of formula I wherein X is ##STR65## also possess enkephalinase inhibition activity and are useful as analgesic agents. Thus, by the administration of a composition containing one or a combination of such compounds of formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, pain is alleviated in the mammalian host. A single dose, or preferably two to four divided daily doses, provided on a basis of about 0.1 to about 100 mg. per kilogram of body weight per day, preferably about 1 to about 25 mg. per kilogram per day, produces the desired analgesic activity. The composition is preferably administered orally but parenteral routes such as subcutaneous can also be employed.
