Description:
FIELD OF INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION 
     The present invention relates to a benzoquinone derivative which exhibits an excellent activity as a medicine. 
     More particularly, the present invention is concerned with a novel benzoquinone derivative useful as a therapeutic agent for hepatic diseases. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION AND PRIOR ART 
     Since the cause, image and pathophysiology of different hepatic diseases are varied and involve numerous unknown factors, the present status is that it is very difficult to develop a therapeutic agent for these diseases. 
     At the present time, representative examples of medicines widely used for treating and preventing hepatic diseases and which are clinically appreciated include glycyrrhizin preparations. Although they are believed to be effective against hepatic disorder cirrhosis or hepatitis and for the postoperative protection of the liver, etc., their efficacy is not so strong and, what is worse, they exhibit steroidal side effects. Further, they are available in the form of an intravenous injection and are disadvantageously inactive when orally administered. 
     Accordingly, it has been eagerly desired to develop a medicine which is highly safe and will exhibit its effect even when orally administered. 
     Under the above-described circumstances, the present inventors have started exploratory researches with a view to developing a therapeutic agent for hepatic diseases. 
     As a result, they have found that the benzoquinone derivative which will be described hereinbelow will attain the object of the present invention. 
     Examples of benzoquinone derivatives which exhibit a pharmaceutical activity include those described in, e.g., Japanese Patent Laid-Open Nos. 223150/1987, 223150/1987 and 177934/1983. 
     The benzoquinone derivative disclosed in the Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 223150/1987 is different from the compound (I) of the present invention in chemical structure and is believed to have an antiasthmatic activity, thus being different from the compound of the present invention also in its pharmaceutical activity. 
     Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 177934/1983 discloses a benzoquinone derivative which is different from the compound of the present invention in both efficacy and chemical structure. 
     Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 185921/1988 discloses a therapeutic agent for hepatic diseases which is different from the compound of the present invention in chemical structure.

     The reaction is conducted by making use of the compound (IX) or its reactive derivative and the compound (X) in such a proportion that they are equimolar or the number of moles of one of them is slightly larger than that of the other, in an inert organic solvent, e.g., pyridine, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, ether, benzene, toluene, xylene, methylene chloride, dichloroethane, chloroform, dimethylformamide, ethyl acetate or acetonitrile. 
     In the reaction, the addition of a base such as triethylamine, pyridine, picoline, lutidine, N,N-dimethylaniline, potassium carbonate or sodium hydroxide is often advantageous for smooth progress of the reaction depending upon the kind of the reactive derivative. 
     The reaction temperature varies depending upon the kind of the reactive derivative and is not particularly limited.

     Experimental Example 3 
     Toxicity test 
     The compound of the present invention prepared in Example 4, compound No. 137 prepared in Example 15 and compound No. 142 prepared in Example 15, as will be described hereinbelow, were orally administered to a seven-week male s(c: SD rat for one week (dose: 300 mg/μg). As a result, no compound was found to cause death. 
     As is apparent from Experimental Examples 1 and 2, the compounds of the present invention are highly useful as a therapeutic agent for hepatic diseases. 
     Therefore, the compounds of the present invention are useful as a therapeutic and preventive agent for various types of hepatopathy of animals including human beings and can be specifically used for the treatment and prevention of, e.g., chronic hepatitis, acute hepatitis, toxic hepatopathy, viral hepatitis, alcoholic hepatitis, jaundice, and cirrhosis as an end-stage disease. 
     Further, as is apparent from Experimental Example 3, the compounds of the present invention have a very low toxicity, i.e., are highly safe. In many cases, the compounds of the present invention must be repetitively administered for a long period of time depending on the nature of the disease. In this respect as well, the present invention is of great value. 
     When the compounds of the present invention are used as a therapeutic and preventive agent for hepatic diseases, they may be orally administered in the form of powders, granules, capsules, syrups, etc., or parenterally administered in the form of suppositories, injections, external preparations and drops. The dose of the compounds of the present invention will remarkably vary depending upon the symptom, age, and kind of the hepatic disease, etc. In general, the compounds of the present invention may be administered in a dose of about 0.1 to 1,000 mg, preferably 2 to 500 mg, still preferably 5 to 150 mg per adult per day in one to several portions. 
     Pharmaceutical preparations are prepared from the compounds of the present invention by making use of a commonly accepted carrier for pharmaceutical preparations according to conventional methods. 
     Specifically, when a solid preparation for oral administration is prepared, the active ingredient is blended with a vehicle and, if necessary, a binder, a disintegrator, a lubricant, a colorant, a corrigent, etc., followed by preparation of tablets, coated tablets, granules, powders and capsules. 
     Examples of the vehicle include lactose, corn starch, sucrose, glucose, sorbitol, crystalline cellulose and silicon dioxide. Examples of the binder include polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl ether, ethylcellulose, methylcellulose, acacia, tragacanth, gelatin, shellac, hydroxypropylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, calcium citrate, dextrin and pectin. Examples of the lubricant include magnesium stearate, talc, polyethylene glycol, silica and hydrogenated vegetable oil. Any colorant of which the addition to pharmaceuticals is officially allowed can be used as the colorant. Examples of the corrigent include cacao powder, menthol, aromatic powder, mentha powder, borneol and powdered cinnamon bark. It is a matter of course that a sugar coating, a gelatin coating and, if necessary, suitable other coatings may be applied on these tablets and granules. 
     When injections are prepared, a pH modifier, a buffering agent, a stabilizer, a solubilizing agent, etc., are added to the active ingredient, followed by the preparation of subcutaneous, intramuscular and intravenous injections according to conventional methods. 
     Representative Examples of the present invention will now be described, though it is needless to say that the present invention is not limited to them. 
     Since the compounds of the present invention have a double bond, they are expected to be present in the form of cis and trans isomers. In the following Examples, the compounds of the present invention are in the form of a trans isomer unless otherwise specified. 
     The final step of preparing the intended substance of the present invention will be described as Examples, and the steps of preparing the starting substance used in the Examples will be described as Referential Examples prior to Examples.
