## Abstract

3,4-Diazole derivatives corresponding to the general formula I ##STR1## which exert a highly selective action on histamine-H.sub.2 receptors are described. Processes for the preparation of these compounds and pharmaceutical preparations containing these compounds are also described.

## Background
This invention relates to new 3,4-diazole derivatives which have a highly selective action on histamine-H.sub.2 receptors, to processes for their preparation, to pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds, and to the use of these compounds in therapy.

Cimetidin and ranitidin have already become established as anti-ulcerative agents in therapy. Both cimetidin and ranitidin, however, have a relatively short half life, with the result that it is necessary to administer them in several daily doses of tablets with dose units of 160 to 300 mg each in a therapeutically fixed form. There therefore continues to be a need for anti-ulcerative agents which have a longer action and/or are more effective than cimetidine and ranitidine. By virtue of their specific H.sub.2 -antagonistic activity, the compounds according to the present invention inhibit gastric secretion which has been stimulated by histamine agonists. Ash and Shild, "Brit. J. Pharmacol. Chemother.", 27, 427 (1966) and Black et al, "Nature", 236, 385 (1972). The pharmacological activity of these compounds may be demonstrated on the perfused rat stomach by a modified method according to DE OS No. 2 734 070 or by determining the pA.sub.2 -values in vitro on the guinea-pig atrium (see Ariens, Molec. Pharmac., Volume 1, Academic Press, New York, 1964 ). Furthermore, the H.sub.2 -antagonistic action can be demonstrated on waking Heidenhain-Pouch dogs by the method of Black et al, "Nature" 236, 385 (1972) and on waking fistulated cats. The new compounds also antagonize the histamine action on the frequency of contraction of the isolated right atrium of the guinea-pig but have no influence on histamine induced contractions of isolated, smooth gastrointestinal muscle if these contractions have been produced by H.sub.2 -agonists. Since substances which inhibit histamine-H.sub.2 receptors have an inhibitory action both on the basal gastric acid secretion and on gastric acid secretion induced by gastrin, histamine, metacholine or food, they may be used for the treatment of peptic ulcers caused by excessive gastric acid secretion as well as for the treatment of hyperacidic gastritis.

The present invention is based on the object of providing new inhibitory substances for histamine-H.sub.2 receptors with improved and/or more prolonged activity. This problem is solved by the invention.

The present invention thus relates to new 3,4-diazole derivatives corresponding to the general formula I ##STR2## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2, which may be identical or different, represent hydrogen or linear C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 -alkyl, C.sub.5 -C.sub.6 -cycloalkyl, amino, C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkylamino or di-(C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkyl)-amino or R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached represent a 5- to 10-membered nitrogen-containing alicyclic or heterocylic ring optionally monosubstituted or disubstituted with a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkyl group; A represents the group (CH.sub.2).sub.n, ##STR3## where n denotes 3 or 4; X represents an oxygen or sulphur atom; and R.sup.3 and R.sup.4, which may be identical or different, represent hydrogen, a linear or branched chain C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl or C.sub.5 -C.sub.6 -cycloalkyl group or a benzyl, benzoyl or phenyl group optionally substituted by a nitro, halogen or C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkyl group or R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached represent a 5- to 7-membered, nitrogen-containing alicyclic, heterocyclic ring, and to the physiologically acceptable salts thereof.

In the general formula I, the substituents R.sup.1 and R.sup.2, which may be identical or different, denote each a hydrogen atom, a linear C.sub.1 -C.sub.10 -alkyl group, preferably a linear C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl group and most preferably a linear C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkyl group, a C.sub.5 -C.sub.6 -cycloalkyl group, i.e. a cyclopentyl or cyclohexyl group, an amino group, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkylamino group, e.g. a n- or i- propylamino group, an ethylamino group or a methylamino group, the methylamino group being preferred, or a di-(C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkyl)-amino group, preferably a diethyl- or dimethyl-amino group. Alternatively, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached may form a 5- to 10- membered nitrogen-containing alicyclic, heterocyclic ring optionally mono- or disubstituted with a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkyl group. The said ring may in addition contain one or more other hetero atoms, e.g. an additional nitrogen atom or an oxygen atom or sulphur atom. Preferred examples of the 5- to 10-membered heterocyclic ring conforming to this definition are the pyrrolidine, piperidine and homopiperidine ring. Preferred examples of heterocyclic rings containing additional hetero atoms are the piperazine and the morpholine ring. In the case of monosubstitution or disubstitution on the 5- to 10-membered, nitrogen-containing alicyclic, heterocyclic ring, each of the substituents is a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkyl group, preferably a methyl group. Thus, for example, the pyrrolidine, piperidine or homopiperidine ring may be substituted with a methyl group in the 2- , 3- or 4-position or, in the case of disubstitution, in the 3,5- or 2,6-position. The following are examples of preferred substituted, nitrogen-containing 5- to 10-membered alicyclic, heterocyclic rings: the 3-methylpyrrolidine, 3-methylpiperidine, 4-methylpiperidine and 3,5-dimethylpiperidine ring, the 3-methylpyrrolidine and 3-methylpiperidine ring being particularly preferred.

The symbol A denotes one of the following groups: ##STR4## n denotes the integer 3 or 4, the value 3 being preferred. X denotes an oxygen or sulphur atom, preferably a sulphur atom. The substituents R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 may also be identical or different and denote hydrogen, a linear or branched C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl group, preferably a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkyl group, e.g. an i- or n-propyl group or an ethyl or methyl group, in particular a methyl group, or a C.sub.5 -C.sub.6 -cycloalkyl group, i.e. a cyclopentyl or cyclohexyl group, or a benzyl, benzoyl or phenyl group. The benzyl benzoyl or phenyl group may be unsubstituted or it may be substituted by a nitro group, a halogen atom or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkyl group, in particular a methyl group. R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 may also combine with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached to form a 5- to 7-membered, nitrogen-containing alicyclic, heterocyclic ring, the piperidine ring being preferred. Such a ring may contain an additional hetero atom, for example a nitrogen atom, an oxygen atom or a sulphur atom. Preferred examples of such a ring are the morpholine ring and the piperazine ring.

A preferred group of compounds according to the invention is characterised in that one of the substituents, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2, is a hydrogen atom and the other is a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkyl group, preferably a methyl group, the symbols A, X, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 having the meanings defined above. Another preferred group of compounds according to the invention is characterised in that R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 each represents a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 -alkyl group, in particular a methyl group, while A, X, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 have the meanings defined above

It has been found that these starting products also manifest a certain H.sub.2 antagonistic activity and could therefore possibly also be used for therapeutic purposes.

The invention covers not only the stereoisomeric compounds and hydrates of the substances corresponding to the general formula I but also the physiologically acceptable salts of these compounds. The said salts may be formed, for example, with mineral acids such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic or hydriodic acid, phosphoric acid, metaphosphoric acid, nitric acid or sulphuric acid or with organic acids such as formic acid, acetic acid, propionic acid, phenylacetic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, fumaric acid, methanesulphonic acid, etc.

As already mentioned above, the compounds according to the invention constitute effective H.sub.2 -antagonists which are superior to reputable compounds having a similar action, such as CIMETIDIN and RANITIDIN.

The invention therefore also relates to medicaments, in particular for the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases, which is characterised in that they contain, as active ingredient, at least one of the above described compounds together with an inert, pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent.

The compounds according to the invention may be administered in any suitable formulation. The invention therefore also covers medicaments containing at least one compound according to the invention for use in human or veterinary medicine. Such medicaments may be prepared by conventional methods, using one or more pharmaceutical carriers or diluents.

The compounds according to the invention may therefore be formulated for oral, buccal, local, parenteral or rectal administration, oral administration being preferred.

For oral administration, the medicament may be formulated, for example, as tablets, capsules, powders, solutions, syrups or suspensions prepared by the conventional methods, using acceptable diluents.

For buccal administration, the medicament may be made up into tablets or sachets formulated in the conventional manner.

For parenteral administration, the compounds according to the invention may be formulated for bolus injection or continuous infusion. Formulations for injection may be made up as ampoules of unit doses or prepared in multiple dose containers with added preservatives.

The pharmaceutical preparations may assume the form of suspensions, solutions or emulsions in oily or aqueous carriers and may contain formulating auxiliaries such as suspending and/or dispersing agents or stabilizers.

Alternatively, the active ingredient may be provided in powder form to be reconstituted before use with a suitable carrier such as sterile, pyrogen-free water.

The compounds according to the invention may also be formulated for rectal administration, for example as suppositories or retention enemas containing, for example, conventional suppository excipients such as cocoa butter or other glycerides.

For local application, the compounds according to the invention may be made up into conventional forms of ointments, creams, gels, lotions, powders or sprays.

For oral administration, a suitable daily dose of compounds according to the invention is from 1 to 4 doses adding up to a total of from 5 mg to 1 g per day, preferably from 5 to 250 mg per day, depending on the patient's condition. In individual cases, it may be necessary to deviate from these quantities, depending on the individual response to the active substance or its formulation and the point in time or time interval at which the medicament is administered. Thus in some cases, for example, it may be sufficient to administer less than the minimum quantity indicated above whereas in other cases it may be necessary to exceed the maximum quantity.
