## Background
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to new antagonists of adenosine receptors, in particular antagonists of the A1 adenosine receptor subtype, the use of said compounds in the treatment of diseases susceptible of being ameliorated by antagonism of adenosine receptors, in particular in the treatment of cardiovascular, renal and respiratory disorders which are known to be improved by the use of antagonists of the A1 adenosine receptors, more specifically disorders such as congestive heart failure, renal failure, hypertension intradialytic hypotension, ischemia, supraventricular arrhythmias, myocardial reperfusion injury, asthma, COPD and allergic rhinitis, and to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said compounds.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The effects of adenosine are mediated through at least four specific cell membrane receptors so far identified and classified as receptors A1, A2A, A2B and A3 belonging to the G protein-coupled receptor family. The A1 and A3 receptors down-regulate cellular cAMP levels through their coupling to G proteins, which inhibit adenylate cyclase. In contrast, A2A and A2B receptors couple to G proteins that activate adenylate cyclase and increase intracellular levels of cAMP. Through these receptors, adenosine regulates a wide range of physiological functions.
Thus, in the cardiovascular system the activation of the A1 receptor protects cardiac tissue from the effects of ischemia and hypoxia (Norton G R et al. Am J Physiol. 1999; 276(2 Pt 2):H341-9; Auchampach J A, Bolli R. Am J Physiol. 1999; 276(3 Pt 2):H1113-6). The potential of A1 antagonists for the treatment of congestive hart failure is well documented in the literature (Jacobson K, Gao Z, Nature Rev. Drug. Disc. 2006; 5, 247-264) and also clinically validated by the positive results of phase II clinical trials with the compounds BG-9719 (Gottlieb S S et al, Circulation, 2002, 105, 1349-1353; Biogen idec, Website), BG-9928 (Greenberg B H et al, Circulation, 2003, 108, Abs 1602) and KW-3902 (Coletta A et al, Eur. J. Heart Failure, 2006, 8, 547-49; Novacardia, Website 2006). In the kidney, adenosine exerts a biphasic action, inducing vasodilatation at high concentrations and vasoconstriction at low concentrations. Thus, adenosine plays a role in the pathogenesis of some forms of acute renal failure that may be ameliorated by A1 receptor antagonists (Costello-Boerrigter L C, et al. Med Clin North Am. 2003 March; 87(2): 475-91; Gottlieb S S., Drugs. 2001; 61(10): 1387-93). Recently the potential of A1 antagonists for the treatment of intradialytic hypotension has been demonstrated in clinical trials (E. Imai; M. Fuji, et al. Kydney International, 2006, 69, 877-883).
Moreover, the novel, potent and selective adenosine A1 receptor antagonist FR194921 exerts both cognitive-enhancing and anxiolytic activity, suggesting the therapeutic potential of such compounds for dementia and anxiety disorders (Maemoto T; Tada M, J. Pharmacol. Sci., 2004, 96, 42-52).
A recent report revealed a strong expression of the adenosine A1 receptor located predominantly to the bronchial epithelium and bronchial smooth muscle. The sensitivity of asthmatics to inhaled adenosine coupled with increased adenosine A1 receptor expression implicates a role for these receptors in the pathophysiology of asthma and other respiratory diseases (Page C, Eur Respir J, 2007, 31(2):311-9).
Some derivatives of the 2-amino 1,3 thiazole are known as adenosine receptor antagonists (Moro S, et al. Med. Res. Rev., 26, 131-159). Some patent applications claimed selective the A2b and A3 (WO9964418, WO0242298, WO05063743) and selective A2a (WO06032273) receptor antagonists based on 2-amino-1,3 thiazole derivatives. One report (Ijzerman P, et al. J. Med. Chem. 2001, 44, 749-762) described selective A1 antagonists based on these structures, but the potency and selectivity published were modest, and the results were obtained using the rat instead the human adenosine receptors.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It has now been surprisingly found that new derivatives of the 5-cyano-2-amino-1,3 thiazole are potent and selective A1 adenosine receptor antagonists, and can therefore be used in the treatment or prevention of diseases susceptible to amelioration by antagonism of the adenosine A1 receptor. It has been further found that the introduction of a cyano group at position 5 of the thiazole ring plays an essential role in the activity of the compounds claimed in the present invention against the adenosine A1 receptor, as can be demonstrated in the following example:




Further objectives of the present invention are to provide a method for preparing said compounds; pharmaceutical compositions comprising an effective amount of said compounds; the use of the compounds in the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of pathological conditions or diseases susceptible of being improved by antagonism of an adenosine receptor, in particular by antagonism of the A1 adenosine receptor; methods of treatment of pathological conditions or diseases susceptible to amelioration by antagonism of an adenosine receptor, in particular by antagonism of the A1 adenosine receptor comprising the administration of the compounds of the invention to a subject in need of treatment and combinations of said compounds with one or more of the following drugs:

    
    
        (a) angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACE-inhibitors) (b) angiotensin receptor antagonists (ARB), (c) statins, (d) beta blockers, (e) calcium antagonists and (f) diuretics, (g) leukotriene antagonists, (h) corticosteroids, (i) aldosterone antagonists, (j) histamine antagonists, (k) CRTh2 antagonists, (l) renin inhibitors, (m) vasopressin antagonists

The compounds of the present invention can be prepared by one of the processes described below.




The cyanoketones of formula (III), wherein R1 is an aryl or heteroaryl group optionally substituted as defined above can be obtained by reaction of a carboxylic acid derivative of formula (II), wherein X is a good leaving group like for example an halogen or O-alkyl, with acetonitrile or cyanoacetic acid in the presence of a base. The base selected for this reaction could be butyl lithium in an aprotic solvent like diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran (Turner J., et al. Synthesis. 1983, 308-9), or sodium hydride, sodium methoxide or potassium tert-butoxide, in a solvent like toluene, diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, ethanol or methanol at a temperature between 40° C. and 120° C. (Dorsch M, et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1932, 54, 2960-63; Turner J., et al. J. Org. Chem. 1989; 54, 4229-31).
The cyanoketones of formula (III), wherein R1 is an aryl or heteroaryl group optionally substituted as defined above can also be obtained by reaction of aromatic nitriles of formula (IV) with acetonitrile in the presence of a strong base as sodium hydride, sodium methoxide potassium tert-butoxide or lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide in a solvent like tetrahydrofuran, dioxane or diethyl ether (Polivka, Z, et al., Collect. Czech. Chem. Commun., 1984, 49, 621-36).
Alternatively, the compounds of formula (III) can be obtained by a two step procedure (Scheme 1) starting from commercially available methyl ketones of formula (V), wherein R1 was defined before. In the first step, compounds of formula (V) are brominated or iodinated using N-Bromsuccinimide or N-Iodsuccinimide under standard conditions obtaining bromo or iodo ketones of formula (VI). The halogen atom of these haloketones of formula (VI) can be substituted by a cyano group using sodium or potassium cyanide leading to the desired cyano ketones of formula (III) (Reidlinger, C, et al., Monatsh. Chem., 1998, 129: 1207-12; Compton, V, et al. J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans. 1, 1992, 2029-32).
On the other hand, acylation of compounds of formula (VII) with cyanoacetic acid or an activated derivative under Friedel-Craft conditions constitutes an alternative method to synthesize the intermediates cyanoketones of formula (III) (I. G. Farbenindustrie DE 544886).
The 2-amino-5-cyano-1,3-thiazole derivatives of formula (VIII), wherein R1 is an aryl or heteroaryl group optionally substituted as defined above, can be obtained by reaction of the cyanoketones of formula (III) with iodine and thiourea in a solvent like pyridine or dimethylformamide at a temperature between 80° C. and 120° C. (Scheme 2).




The compounds of formula (VIII) can be acylated using either a carboxylic acid chloride derivative of formula (IX) or a carboxylic acid anhydride of formula (X), where R3 was defined above, giving the amide derivatives of formula (XI) which are particular cases of the compounds claimed by the present invention.

Synthesis of the Carboxylic Acid Chlorides:
Not commercially available carboxylic acid chlorides have been synthesized from the corresponding carboxylic acids using standard procedures (Burdett, K. A., Sintesis, 1991, 441-42) as exemplified below:
1,3,5 Cyclohexanecarboxylic Acid Trichloride
0.5 g (2.3 mmol) 1,3,5 cyclohexane carboxylic acid have been dissolved in 1,2-dichloroethane (5 ml). To this solution benzyl triethyl ammonium chloride (0.001 g, 3 μmol) and thionyl chloride (0.562 ml, 7.7 mmol) was then added. The suspension has been stirred at 90° C. for 16 h. The solution was concentrated and the residue was used in the acylation reaction without further purification.
Synthesis of the Carboxylic Acid Anhydrides
3-oxa-bicyclo[3.3.1]nonane-2,4-dione (cis-1,3-cyclohexane Dicarboxylic Anhydride)
10 g (58.2 mmol) 1,3-cyclohexane dicarboxylic acid were suspended in acetic anhydride (40 ml) and refluxed during 5 h. The solution was then cooled to room temperature and the solvents were removed in vacuo. The residue was then dissolved in a mixture of heptane (20 ml) and toluene (20 ml) and the solution was cooled to 4° C. The precipitated solid was then collected by filtration and washed with pentane to give 5.9 g of the titled compound as white needles.
