Iso- and heterocyclic phenylsulphonamides

Abstract: Iso- and heterocyclic phenylsulphonamides can be prepared by reaction of corresponding iso- and hetero­ cyclic amines with phenylsulphonic acid derivatives. The iso- and heterocyclic phenylsulphonamides have thrombo­ cyte aggregation-inhibiting and thromboxane A₂ antagonist action and can be used in medicaments.

Description: The invention relates to iso- and heterocyclic phenylsulphonamides, to a process for their preparation and to their use in medicaments, in particular as anti-thrombotics. It is already known that some chroman derivatives have a hypotensive action [compare DE-OS (German Published Specification) 3,411,993]. In addition, substituted aminomethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthyl-oxyacetic acids having an antithrombotic, antiatherosclerotic and antiischaemic action are described in DE-A1 3,642,105. Furthermore, bicyclic chroman derivatives having thrombocyte aggregation-inhibiting action are described in DOS 3,737,195. Thrombosis and arteriosclerotic vascular changes are controlled in particular by the metabolism of two metabolites of arachidonic acid, namely thromboxane A₂ (TXA₂) and prostacyclin (PGI₂). TXA₂ has an aggregating effect on the blood platelets and PGI₂ has an anti-aggregating effect. Moreover, TXA₂ acts as a vaso-constrictor and bronchoconstrictor and PGI₂ as a vasodilator and bronchodilator. In a number of thromboembolic and ischaemic disorders, hyperaggregability of the platelets or elevated platelet consumption leads to an increased thromboxane synthesis, so that the TXA₂ and PGI₂ equilibrium is disturbed. It is therefore desirable for the therapy and prophylaxis of thromboembolic and ischaemic disorders to inhibit the effect of thromboxane and thus to increase the protective property of PGI₂. The invention relates to iso- and heterocyclic phenylsulphonamides of the general formula (I) in which A, B, D and E are identical or different and represent hydrogen, hydroxyl, halogen, trifluoromethyl, trifluoromethoxy, straight-chain or branched alkyl or alkoxy in each case having up to 8 carbon atoms, or represent aryl having 6 to 10 carbon atoms, which is optionally monosubstituted to trisubstituted by identical or different substituents from the series comprising halogen, trifluoromethyl, trifluoromethoxy, carboxyl, nitro, cyano or by straight-chain or branched alkyl, alkoxy or alkoxycarbonyl in each case having up to 8 carbon atoms, or represent a group of the formula -(CH₂) m -CO-Z or -O-(CH₂) p -CO-Z, wherein m - denotes a number 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4, p - denotes a number 1, 2, 3 or 4, and Z - denotes hydroxyl, straight-chain or branched alkoxy having up to 8 carbon atoms, aryloxy having 6 to 10 carbon atoms or a group of the formula -NR⁴R⁵, wherein R⁴ and R⁵ are identical or different and denote hydrogen, straight-chain or branched alkyl having up to 8 carbon atoms or aryl having 6 to 10 carbon atoms, with the proviso that either A and B or B and D or D and E together must form a 5- to 7-membered saturated or unsaturated carbocycle fused to the basic structure or a heterocycle having up to 4 heteroatoms from the series comprising nitrogen, oxygen, sulphur or a group -NR⁶, wherein R⁶ - denotes hydrogen, straight-chain or branched alkyl having up to 8 carbon atoms, aryl having 6 to 10 carbon atoms or a group of the formula -(CH₂) p -CO-Z, wherein p and Z have the abovementioned meaning, and which in turn may be substituted by a group of the formula -(CH₂) m -CO-Z or -O-(CH₂) p -CO-Z, wherein m, p and Z have the abovementioned meaning, Y represents the group -(CH₂) s -, wherein s - denotes a number 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4, R¹ represents aryl having 6 to 10 carbon atoms, which is optionally monosubstituted to pentasubstituted by identical or different substituents from the series comprising halogen, cyano, nitro, trifluoromethyl, difluoromethyl, difluoromethoxy, trifluoromethoxy, carboxyl, aryloxy having 6 to 10 carbon atoms, by straight-chain or branched alkyl, alkoxy or alkoxycarbonyl in each case having up to 8 carbon atoms or by the group -NR⁴R⁵, wherein R⁴ and R⁵ have the abovementioned meaning, R² and R³ are identical or different and represent hydrogen, straight-chain or branched alkyl or alkoxy in each case having up to 8 carbon atoms, represent a group of the formula -(CH₂) m -CO-Z or -NR⁴R⁵, wherein m, Z, R⁴ and R⁵ have the abovementioned meaning X represents oxygen or the -CH₂- group and their salts.

When carrying out the hydrolysis, the base is in general employed in an amount from 1 to 3 moles, preferably from 1 to 1.5 moles, relative to 1 mole of the ester. Molar amounts of the reactants are particularly preferably used. The amines of the general formula (IIa) in which A, B, D, E, X, R² and R³ have the abovementioned meaning and n represents the number 1 or 2, are new and can be prepared by reacting ketones of the general formula (IV) in which A, B, D, E, X, R² and R³ have the abovementioned meaning, first with trimethylsilyl cyanide of the formula (V) (CH₃)₃ Si-CN (V) in inert solvents, if appropriate in the presence of a catalyst such as, for example, Lewis acids, bases or crown ethers, with alkali metal cyanides, such as, for example, sodium cyanide via the corresponding silylated cyanohydrin step by treatment with acids to give the α,β-unsaturated nitriles of the general formula (VI) in which A, B, D, E, I, R² and R³ have the abovementioned meaning, and in a further step, reducing both the double bond and the cyano group, either simultaneously or in a two-step reaction, by catalytic hydrogenation, if appropriate in the presence of ammonia in inert solvents. The compounds of the general formula (IIb), in which A, B, D, E, X, R² and R³ have the abovementioned meaning and n represents the number 0, are also new and can be prepared from the compounds of the general formula (IV) by catalytic reductive amination in analogy to processes known from the literature [cf. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 93, 2897 (1971); Rylander, "Catalytic Hydrogenation", p. 291 - 303, Academic Press, New York, 1967; Org. Reactions 4, 174-255 (1948)] or by reductive amination using complex metal hydrides [cf. Harada, in Patai, "The Chemistry of the Carbon-Nitrogen-Double Bond, "Interscience Publishers, New York, 1970, p. 276-293; J. Am. Chem. Soc., 93, 2837 (1971)]. Suitable catalysts for the reaction with trimethylsilyl cyanide are the customary Lewis acids, such as, for example, aluminium trichloride, boron trifluoride etherate, zinc iodide, tin tetrachloride, or organic bases such as pyridine or triethylamine, or crown ether complexes, such as, for example, 18-crown-6 x KCN. Boron trifluoride etherate and zinc iodide are preferred. The reaction can optionally also be carried out without catalyst. In the reaction, the catalyst is in general employed in an amount from 0.1 to 5 moles, preferably from 1 to 3 moles, relative to 1 mole of the compound of the formula (V). The reaction is carried out in one of the above-mentioned inert solvents, such as, for example, ethers, halogenated hydrocarbons or toluene, preferably in diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, methylene chloride or toluene. The reaction can also be carried out without solvent. The reaction temperature is between 0°C and +130°C, preferably at +20°C to +80°C. Suitable acids for the conversion of the crude silylated cyanohydrins into the α, β-unsaturated nitriles (VI) are organic acids such as trifluoroacetic acid, p-toluenesulphonic acid, formic acid, acetic acid, or mineral acids such as, for example, hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid or nitric acid.

It is additionally possible to work without solvents. The reaction is in general carried out in a temperature range from 0°C to +120°C, preferably at +25°C to +40°C. The reduction of the double bond by hydrogenation is in general carried out using hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst such as, for example, platinum or platinum oxides, rhodium, ruthenium, chlorotris(triphenylphosphine)rhodium, or palladium on animal carbon, preferably using palladium on animal carbon in a temperature range from 0°C to +150°C, preferably from +25°C to +100°C. The reduction of the nitrile group to the amino group is in general carried out using metal hydrides, such as, for example, aluminium hydride or its mixtures, in a temperature range from -20°C to +150°C, preferably from 0°C to +100°C or by hydrogenation in the presence of a noble metal catalyst such as platinum, palladium, palladium on animal carbon or Raney nickel, in a temperature range from 0°C to +100°C. Suitable solvents are protic solvents such as, for example, methanol, ethanol and/or aprotic solvents such as, for example, tetrahydrofuran, toluene, dimethylformamide, methylene chloride or dioxane, to which, if appropriate, liquid ammonia is added. The hydrogenation is carried out a pressure of 4 to 300 atm, preferably 50 to 150 atm. The amount of catalyst employed is 0.5 to 5, preferably 1 to 1.5 mol %, relative to the compound of the general formula (VI). When carrying out the reduction in a two-step reaction, the reduction of the double bond takes place first and then the reduction of the nitrile group to the amino group in the abovementioned manner. However, it is also possible to carry out the reduction of the double bond and the nitrile group in one step by choosing the reaction conditions for the abovementioned reduction of the nitrile group (higher pressure). Reduction via a two-step reaction is preferred. In addition, it is possible to carry out the hydrogenation by other customary methods [cf. Rylander, "Catalytic Hydrogenation", Academic Press, Inc. New York (1967)]. The trimethylsilyl cyanide of the general formula (V) is known [cf. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 80 , 4151-4153 (1958); D.A. Evans, G.L. Carrol, L.H. Truesdale, J. Org.Chem. 39 , 914 (1974)]. The reductive amination takes place in one of the abovementioned solvents, preferably in methanol, ethanol, propanol, diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, chloroform, acetonitrile, dimethylformamide, glacial acetic acid or mixtures thereof. Suitable reducing agents are the customary complex hydrides, such as, for example, sodium borohydride, sodium cyanoborohydride, or aminoborane complexes or hydrogen, if appropriate in the presence of a metal catalyst such as, for example, Raney nickel or palladium.

The reaction can be carried out at normal or elevated pressure (1.0 to 5 bar). In general, the reaction is carried out at normal pressure when using complex metal hydrides and at elevated pressure when using hydrogen. The reductive amination is generally carried out in a temperature range from +10°C to +120°C. Some of the compounds of the general formula (IV) are known [cf. K. Yamamoto, H. Takushima, H. Yumiaha, H. Nagazuki, Bull. Chem. Soc. Jap. 58 (1985), 12, 3633 - 3638; J. Med. Chem. 20 (5), 664 - 669; DE 253,688; Chem. Pharm. Bull. 29 (11), 3232-3237; J. Am. Chem. Soc. 110 (9), 2919-2924; J.

J.M. Lockhart in Ellis "Chromenes, Chromanones and Chromones", Interscience Publication, New York, 1977, page 236-237, p. 237-256], it being possible to introduce the radicals of the formula -(CH₂) m -CO-Z or -O-(CH₂) p -CO-Z, if they have not already been carried along by the corresponding substituted starting compounds, if appropriate by alkylation, for example, of the compounds of the general formulae (II), (IV) or (VI), in which one of the radicals A, B, D or E denotes a hydroxyl group, with carboxylic acid derivatives of the formulae M-(CH₂) m -CO-Z (X) or M-(CH₂) p -CO-Z (XI) in which m, p and Z have the abovementioned meaning and M denotes a leaving group such as, for example, Cl, Br, I, -O-SO₂-CH₃ or -O-SO₂-C₆H₄-p-CH₃, by methods known from the literature [cf.

The reaction with acrylonitrile and with acryloyl chlorides take place in a temperature range from 0°C to +160°C, preferably at +80°C to +110°C at normal pressure. The compounds of the general formula (VII) are known per se or can be prepared by known methods [cf. S.C. Lahiri, J.K. Gupta, J. Indian Chem. Soc. 53 (1976), 1041; A. Mukkopadhyay, A. Roy, S.C. Lahiri, J. Indian Chem. Soc. 62 (1985), 690-692; H.O. House, C.B. Hudson, J. Org. Chem. 35 (1970) 3, 647-651; H. Immer, J.F. Baghi, J. Org. Chem. 33 (6), 1968, 2457; L.N. Monder, S.G.

The compounds of the general formulae (VIII) and (IX) are known per se or can be prepared by known methods [cf. R.B. Burtner, J.M. Brown, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 73 (1951), 897; W.J. Awaward, F.G. Baddar, A.E. Marei, J. Chem. Soc. 1954, 4538-4541]. The compounds of the general formula (X) and (XI) are known or can be prepared by customary methods [cf. Beilstein 3, 5; Fieser 1, 247; 2, 129; 3, 95; 5, 213]. The iso- and heterocyclic phenylsulphonamides or their salts according to the invention can be employed as active compounds in medicaments. The active compounds have a strong thrombocyte aggregation-inhibiting and thromboxane A₂ antagonist action. They can preferably be employed for the treatment of thromboses, thromboembolisms, ischaemias, as antiasthmatics and as anti-allergics. The iso- and heterocyclic phenylsulphonamides according to the invention can be used both in human medicine and in veterinary medicine. The active compounds according to the invention can be converted in a manner known per se using inert non-toxic, pharmaceutically suitable excipients or solvents into the customary formulations, such as tablets, capsules, coated tablets, pills, granules, aerosole, syrups, emulsions, suspensions and solutions. In this connection, the therapeutically active compound should in each case be present in a concentration from about 0.5 to 90 % by weight, preferably from 5 to 70 % by weight, relative to the preparation, which is sufficient in order to achieve the dosage range indicated. Use Example In order to determine the thrombocyte aggregation-inhibiting action, blood from healthy subjects of both sexes was used. One part of 3.8 % strength aqueous sodium citrate solution was admixed to 9 parts of blood as an anticoagulant. Platelet-rich citrate plasma (PRP) was obtained from this blood by means of centrifugation (Jürgens/Beller, Klinische Methoden der Blutgerinnungsanalyse (Clinical Methods of Blood Coagulation Analysis); Thieme Verlag, Stuttgart, 1959). For these investigations 0.8 ml of PRP and 0.1 ml of the active compound solution were preincubated at 37°C in a waterbath. The thrombocyte aggregation was then determined at 37°C in an aggregometer (Therapeutische Berichte 47 , 80-86, 1975) by the turbidometric method (Born G.V.R., J. Physiol. (London), 162 , 67, 1962). For this purpose, 0.1 ml of collagen, an aggregation-inducing agent, was added to the preincubated sample. The change of the optical density in the sample of PRP was recorded for a period of 6 minutes and the aggregation was determined after 6 minutes. For this purpose, the percentage inhibition compared to the control is calculated. The threshold concentration is indicated by the range of the minimum effective concentration. The threshold concentrations are between 0.003-10 mg/l, for example compound of Example 73. EC = 0.03 - 0.01 mg/l. The formulations are prepared, for example, by extending the active compounds with solvents and/or excipients, if appropriate using emulsifiers and/or dispersants, it being possible, for example, in the case of the use of water as a diluent, to use organic solvents as auxiliary solvents if appropriate. Auxiliaries which may be mentioned are, for example: water, non-toxic organic solvents such as paraffins (for example mineral oil fractions), vegetable oils (for example groundnut/sesame oil), alcohols (for example ethyl alcohol, glycerol), glycols (for example propylene glycol, ethylena glycol ), solid excipients, such as, for example, ground natural minerals (for example kaolins, clays, talc, chalk), ground synthetic minerals (for example highly disperse silicic acid, silicates), sugars (for example sucrose, lactose and dextrose), emulsifiers (for example polyoxyethylene fatty acid esters, polyoxyethylene fatty alcohol ethers, alkylsulphonates and arylsulphonates), dispersants (for example lignin, sulphite waste liquors, methylcellulose, starch and polyvinylpyrrolidone) and lubricants (for example magnesium stearate, talc, stearic acid and sodium laurylsulphate). Administration can take place in a customary manner, preferably orally or parenterally, in particular perlingually or intravenously. In the case of oral administration, tablets may of course also contain additions, such as sodium citrates, calcium carbonate and dicalcium phosphate together with various additives, such as starch, preferably potato starch, gelatin and the like in addition to the excipients mentioned. Furthermore, lubricants, such as magnesium stearate, sodium laurylsulphate and talc can additionally be used for tabletting. In the case of aqueous suspensions and/or elixirs which are intended for oral administration, various flavour enhancers or colourants may also be added to the active compounds in addition to the abovementioned auxiliaries. In the case of parenteral administration, solutions of the active compounds can be employed using suitable liquid excipients. In general, it has proved advantageous on intravenous administration to administer amounts of about 0.001 to 1 mg/kg, preferably about 0.01 to 0.5 mg/kg of body weight to attain effective results. On oral administration, the dosage is in general about 0.01 to 20 mg/kg, preferably 0.1 to 10 mg/kg of body weight. However, it may be advantageous to deviate from the amounts mentioned, depending on the body weight or the type of application route, on individual behaviour towards the medicament, the manner of its formulation and the point in time or interval at which administration takes place. Thus, in some cases it may be sufficient to manage with less than the minimum amount previously mentioned, while in other cases the upper limit mentioned must be exceeded. In the case of the administration of larger amounts, it may be advisable to divide these into a number of individual doses over the day.
