Description: THERAPEUTICALLY USEFUL 2-AMINOTETRALIN DERIVATIVES FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention is related to new 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-2- naphthylamines, to processes for preparing such compounds, phar- maceutical preparation of such compounds and the use of such com¬ pounds in manufacture of a pharmaceutical preparation. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Psychiatric diseases are thought to be due to dysfunctions in monoaminergic neuronal systems, particularly those involving seroto- nin (5-HT) and dopamine (DA). Anxiety is associated with increased activity in 5-HT systems. In animals where 5-HT has been depleted, benzodiazepine anxiolytics are not active in anti-anxiety assays that they otherwise are effective in. Seronotin neurons have autoreceptors that, when activated by agonists, depress firing rates of 5-HT cells. These receptors are of the 5-HT^ A subtype. 5-HT j ^ agonists are anxiolytic. Buspirone is a marketed 5-HTi^ agonist that is an anxiolytic. Gepirone is another 5-HT^ A agonist with clinically demonstrated anti- anxiety activities. Depression is a psychiatric condition thought to be associated with decreased 5-HT release. Many anti-depressants potentiate the effects of 5-HT by blocking the termination of activity through reuptake into nerve terminals. 5-HT^ A agonists can can activate postsynaptically; they thus may also be anti-depressants. Gepirone has already been demonstrated to have ameliorative effects on some depressive endpoints in some patients. Serotonin is also involved in the regulation of feeding and sexual behavior and in cardiovascular regulation. Thus, 5-HT^ A agonists may be useful in treating overeating and sexual dysfunction. These compounds have been shown to alter feeding and sexual behavior in animals. They may also be useful in the treatment of obses¬ sive/compulsive disorders, alcohol abuse and violent behavior. 5- -Hl-IA agonists are also known to depress sympathetic nerve discharge and thus lower blood pressure. Thus, they may be useful in treating hypertension, congestive heart failure (by reducing cardiovascular afterload) and heart attack (be removing sympathetic drive to the heart) . Schizophrenia is thought to be due to hyperactivity in DA systems. Thus, currently available anti-psychotics are DA an¬ tagonists. Dopamine autoreceptors depress DA neuron firing rates, DA synthesis and release. Thus DA autoreceptor agonists can also be expected to be anti-psychotics. DA agonists are also useful for treating Parkinsonism, a disease caused by degeneration of DA neurons, and hyperprolactinemia, since DA agonists depress prolactin release. Dopamine autoreceptor antagonists are a new class of drugs that increase release of DA by releasing the DA neuron from autoreceptor control. Thus, these drugs can be expected to be useful in condi¬ tions treatable with amphetamine and other similar stimulants which directly release DA. However, DA autoreceptor agonists will be much milder stimulants because, rather than directly releasing DA, they simply increase the release associated with the normal DA activity by releasing the cell from autoreceptor control. Thus, DA autoreceptor antagonists can be expected to be useful in treating overeating, attention deficit disorders, psychiatric, cognitive and motor retardation in demented and elderly patients, and in treating nausea and dizziness with space travel. The compounds of the present invention have a variety of effects at 5-HT ] _^ and DA receptors, and offer a variety of utilities associ¬ ated with those activities. Clinically, 5-HT_^ agonists have also demonstrated anxiolytic properties. The drug, Buspirone, is the only currently available marketed 5-H τ^ agonist having anxiolytic activity. This compound antagonizes dopamine receptors at the same dose it stimulates 5-HT^ A receptors. A similar drug, Gepirone, also has dopamine antagonist properties. These dopamine antagonist properties reduce the clinical utility of these compounds however because long term treatment with dopamine antagonists can produce tardive dyskinesia. The search for new CNS active compounds is focused on finding compounds with selective 5-HT^ A receptor agonist effects without detrimentally influencing central dopamine receptors. Drugs acting on central dopamine transmission are clinically effective in treating a variety of central nervous system disorders such as parkinsonism, schizophrenia, and manic-depressive illness. In parkinsonism, for example, the nigro-neostriatal hypofunction can be restored by an increase in postsynaptic dopamine receptor stimula- tion. In schizophrenia, the condition can be normalized by achieving a decrease in postsynaptic dopamine receptor stimulation. Classical anti-psychotic agents directly block the postsynaptic dopamine recep¬ tor. The same effect can be achieved by inhibition of intraneuronal presynaptic events essential for the maintenance of adequate neuro- transmission, transport mechanism and transmitter synthesis. In recent years a large body of pharmacological, biochemical and electrophysical evidence has provided considerable support in favor of the existence of a specific population of central autoregulatory dopamine receptors located in the dopaminergic neuron itself. These receptors are part of a homeostatic mechanism that modulates nerve impulse flow and transmitter synthesis and regulates the amount of dopamine released from the nerve endings. Direct dopamine receptor agonists, like apomorphine, are able to activate the dopamine autoreceptors as well as the post synaptic dopamine receptors. The effects of autoreceptor stimulation appear to predominate when apomorphine is administered at low doses, whereas at higher doses the attenuation of dopamine transmission is outweighed by the enhancement of postsynaptic receptor stimulation. The anti-psychotic and anti-dyskinetic effects in man of low doses of apomorphine are likely due to the autoreceptor-stimulator properties of this dopamine receptor agonist. This body of knowledge indicates dopamine receptor stimulants with a high selectivity for central nervous dopamine autoreceptors would be valuable in treating psychiatric disorders.

Illustrative acids are sulfuric, nitric, phosphoric, hydrochloric, citric, acetic, lactic, tartaric, palmoic, ethanedisulfonic, sulfamic, succinic, cyclohexylsulfamic, fumaric, maleic, and benzoic acid. These salts are readily prepared by methods known in the art. The compounds of this invention may be obtained by one of the following methods described below and outlined in the appropriate charts. Compounds of the invention wherein R^ is alkyl amido or dialkyl amido and R 2 and R3 are hydrogen or alkyl can be made by the process illustrated in Chart A. In step 1 of Chart A, substituted 2-tetralone A-l is treated with ethylene glycol in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid and a solvent such as benzene at a reflux temperature for about one to eight hours to yield A-2. The starting substituted tetralones, for example, 8-methoxy-tetralone, are readily available or can be prepared by methods well known in the art. In Step 2, A-2 is converted to the corresponding hydroxy compound A-3 by refluxing in a reaction mixture of diphenyl- phosphine and n-butyllithium. In Step 3, A-3 is reacted with trifluoromethanesulfonic anhydride in the presence of methylene chloride and pyridine to provide A-4 tetralin. In Step 4 carbon monoxide is bubbled through a mixture of A-4, palladium acetate, bis(diphenylphosphino)propane, diisopropylethylamine, methanol and dimethyl sulfoxide to yield A-5. In Step 5, A-5 is hydrolyzed with a base such as potassium hydroxide to yield A-6. In Step 6, A-6 and carbonyldiimidazole is dissolved in a solvent, such as THF and the resulting solution reacted with ammonia saturated THF to yield A-7. In Step 7, A-7 is dissolved in a solvent, such as acetic acid, and heated to yield A-8. In Step 8, A-8 is reacted with the appropriate amine in the presence of sodium cyanoborohydride, methanol and acetic acid to yield the 2-N-alkylamino compound A-9. In Step 9, A-9 is refluxed with n-haloalkane in the presence of sodium carbonate and acetonitrile to yield the 2-N,N-dialkylamino compound A-10. In addition compounds of A-5 (B-l) can be converted to compounds of Formula I wherein R^ is arylcarbonyl by the process illustrated in Chart B. In Step 1 a solution of B-l(A-5) is reacted with the pyrrole-adduct in a solvent such as toluene in the presence of ethylmagnesium bromide to yield B-2. In Step 2, B-2 is reacted with an N-alkylamine in the presence of acetic acid, platinum oxide and absolute ethanol under a hydrogen atmosphere to yield N-alkylamino compound B-3. In Step 3, N,N-dialkylamino compound B-4 is prepared by reacting B-3 with an n-haloalkane in the presence of a base such as sodium carbonate and a solvent such as acetonitrile. Methods for preparing compounds of Formula I wherein R^ is hydrogen, -ORg, or -SRg are illustrated by the processes illustrated in Charts C to F. In each of these processes, 2-tetralone derivatives are utilized as the starting material. Chart C Substituted 2-tetralone C-l, wherein R- , R 2 and 3 are defined as above, is subjected to reductive amination whose procedures are known in the art. Chart D In step 1 substituted 2-tetralone D-l is converted to substituted aminotetralin D-2 by reductive amination. In step 2, D-2 is converted to 2-aminotetralin, D-3, which is converted in Step 3 to D-4, a N-substituted aminotetralin via reductive amination. Chart E In step 1, substituted 2-tetralone E-l is alkylated at the 2- position to produce E-2 by reaction wirh an alkyl halide utilizing base in accordance with alkylation methods well known in the art. In step 2, E-2 is subjected to reductive amination to produce E-3. Chart F In step 1, substituted tetralone F-l is reacted with dimethylcarbonate in the presence of base such as LDA to produce F-2. In step 2 F-2 is reacted with alkyl halide in the presence of base to produce F-3. In step 3, F-3 is decarboxylated to produce F-4. In step 4, F-4 is subjected to reductive amination to produce F-5. Chart G In step 1, substituted tetralone G-l (F-2) is reductively amenated by procedure known in the art. G-2 is alkylated to form anide G-3 by reaction with propionic anhydride in pyridene. In step 3, G-3 is reduced in the presence of reducing agent such as LAH to produce G-4. G-4 is converted to G-5 in step 4 by tosylation then elimination with the appropriate base via methods well known in the art. Methods for conducting reductive amination are well known in the art and any such methods may be used in the procedures described above. One such method involves reacting the tetralone with an amine in the presence of sodium cyanoborohydride and glacial acetic acid in tetrahydrofuran/methanol. The 8-amido compounds of A-10 can be converted to the corresponding 8-cyano compounds by reacting A-10 with a "Burgess salt" utilizing conditions well known in the art. The Burgess salt can be prepared by the procedure described in Organic Synthesis. 56. page 40.

The utility of the compounds of this invention to treat central nervous system disorders is shown in behavioral, physiological and biochemical tests. The methods are given as follows: Binding: Inhibition of 8-OH-DPAT binding in a bovine brain homogenate. Potency is given as nM dose required to inhibit 50% of DPAT binding (IC50 . This test measures ability to bind to 5- hydroxytryptamine (5-HTχ^.) receptor. Hypothermia: Starting with a dose of 30 mg/kg, four mice are injected subcutaneously with test compound. Twenty minutes later, the number of animals whose body temperature has decreased by 2°C. or more are counted. If all four animals reach criteria, the drug is considered "active", and subsequent readings are taken at 60 and 120 minutes after drug. The time for last statistically significant drug affect on mean body temperature is indicated in minutes. For all "active" compounds, doses are lowered by 0.5 log intervals until a dose which does not lower body temperature by 2°C. in any animal is found. Potency is given as mg/kg ED50 (dose required to depress temperature in two of four mice) as measured by Spearman-Karber statistics. Sympathetic Nerve Discharge (SND) : The i.v. mg/kg dose causing a 50% depression in SND in chloralose anestetized cats and the maximum inhibition of sympathetic activity observed in the dose range tested (0.001-1.0 mg/kg i.v.). BP SND/MAX: The blood pressure of the chloralose anestetized cats in percent control at the dose causing 50% depression in SND and the maximum reduction in blood pressure as percent of the control blood pressure in the same animals observed in the dose range tested (0.001-1.0 mg/kg i.v.).

Anti-diabetic A. Testing For Blood Glucose Lowering In the KKAy Mouse All KK ^ mice used for screening' are produced and selected by methods outlined by T. Fujita et al. , Diabetes, 32, pp. 804-10 (1983). The screening is done in groups of six animals per group. Pre-treatment non-fasting blood glucose (NFBG) samples are measured five days prior to the start of a screening run by previously described methodologies. These blood sugar values are used to place animals into groups with equal mean blood glucose concentrations and to eliminate any mice with a NFBG value <250 mg/dl. On day 0, compounds chosen to be run are incorporated into ground mouse chow (Purina 5015). Compounds are included at a rate of 1 mg/gram of chow. Generally, 300 g of drugs containing diet is prepared for each group. Mice receiving ground chow only are the negative control. Each screening run also uses ciglitazone (T. Fujita et al. , supra) as a positive control (0.5 to 1.0 mg/gram chow). Initial body and food weights are taken on day one. Food is placed in a crock which contains an adequate amount to last for the length of the study. In order to acclimate the mice from pelleted mouse chow to ground mouse chow, they are fed the ground chow for nine days prior to use in the screen. On day four of treatment, a NFBG sample is again measured, as well as food and body weights. Food consumption measurements are used to determine an average mg/kg dose the mice received over the testing period, and to evaluate the compound's effect on food consumption. Acceptance and activity are determined by the following criteria: A. Negative Control This group must not show a significant change (p<.05) from pre- to post-treatment. If there is a significant decrease in blood sugar, the run is not valid. B. Positive Control This group must show a significant depression in blood sugar mean levels from pre- to post-treatment. A lack of activity in this group would also invalidate the run. C. Negative Control vs. Positive Control This contrast must be significant. It is a further assurance that both control groups performed as expected. D. Compound A compound's activity is based on several criteria: 1. A significant decrease in blood sugar mean levels from pre- to post-treatment. 2. Negative control vs. compound: This contrast allows one to determine if these groups are dissimilar, which is required for the compound to be considered active. II. Anti-obesitv Activity Upjohn Sprague-Dawley rats are housed individually and given food and water ad libitum. Food consumption is measured daily. The animals are orally dosed with 100 mg/kg or 200 mg/kg of the compound in Tween 80. Controls receive an equivalent volume of (0.25) of Tween 80. If the daily food consumption of the treated animals is in the range of 4 grams less than that of the control animals the compound is considered to have anorexic activity.
