Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to novel aminobenzenesulfonic acid derivatives having the activity of inhibiting Ca²⁺ overload into cells. Ca²⁺ overload into cells of cardiac muscle or vascular smooth muscle brings about myocardial disorder, conduction disorder or vascular abnormal constriction, etc., and may induce cardiovascular diseases (John A. Watts, American Journal of Physiology, Vol. 238, pp. 909 - 916 (1980) or Gordon L. Todd, Cardiovascular Research, Vol. 20, pp. 645 - 651 (1986)). Therefore, drugs which inhibit Ca²⁺ overload into these cells can be useful prophylactic and therapeutical pharmaceuticals for cardiovascular diseases such as ischemic heart diseases, heart failure, hypertension or arrhythmia, etc. In the prior art, as the drug for inhibiting Ca²⁺ overload into cells of cardiac muscle or vascular smooth muscle, there have been known, for example, Ca antagonists or β-adrenoceptor antagonists. However, these drugs, depending on their doses used, have been known to inhibit cardiac function by lowering Ca²⁺ concentration within cells in the case of Ca antagonists, or by blocking catecholamine activity in the case of β-blockers, thereby inducing heart failure (Keiji Ueda, Sogo Rinsho, Vol. 36, pp. 851 - 854 (1987)), and therefore the application to cardiovascular diseases has been limited. DE-A 2040 279 and DE-A- 2111 811 disclose all piperazinebenzene sulfonamides, DE-B 1104 514 discloses thiobenzene derivatives and DE-A 3715 763 discloses diaryl alkyl- substituted alkylamine derivatives.

Test example 1 For evaluation of the extent of inhibiting Ca²⁺ overload into cells, which is the pharmacological activity of the compound of the present invention, inhibition of the cardiotonic activity of isoproterenol by the compounds of the present invention was measured. That is to say, since isoproterenol has been known to cause Ca²⁺ overload by excessive Ca²⁺ influx into cardiac muscle cells (Fleckenstein A., Janke J., Doring H., Leder O.; Recent advances in Studies on cardiac structure and metabolism, Myocardial Biology, Vol. 4, pp. 563 - 580 (1974)), the compound which inhibits the activity of isoproterenol can inhibit Ca²⁺ overload into cells. 〈Method〉 Papillary muscle of right ventricle isolated from male Hartley-strain guinea-pigs (body weight: 250 to 350 g) was suspended in an organ bath filled with a nutrient solution (Krebs-Henseleit solution). The temperature of the nutrient solution was maintained at 32 °C, and a gas mixture of 95 % oxygen and 5 % carbon dioxide was aerated. The papillary muscle was applied with a resting tension of about 0.5 g, and stimulated with platinum electrodes by an electric pulse wave of a duration of 1 msec, a frequency of 1 Hz and a voltage higher by 15 % than the threshold value. The developed tension of the papillary muscle was measured through a tension transducer and recorded with a polygraph. After the specimen was stabilized for about 90 minutes, isoproterenol (10⁻³ to 10⁻⁷ M) was added into the organ bath so that developed tension could be increased by 100 % or more, and at the point when the maximum reaction was obtained, the compounds of the present invention were added into the organ bath, and % inhibition of the developed tension increased by isoproterenol was measured. 〈Results〉 The % inhibition of the respective compounds are shown in Table 2.

Test example 2 Protective effect on ischemic myocardium For the evaluation of the protective effect of ischemic myocardium, two parameters (rise in resting tension and decrease in developed tension), indices of myocardial injury, were measured in the myocardial ischemic model using isolated heart of rat. It is reported that drugs which have the protective effect on ischemic myocardium attenuates the rise in resting tension and decrease in developed tension induced by Ca²⁺ overload into myocardial cells when the heart is exposed to ischemia. (Araki, H. & Lefer, AM.: Role of prostacyclin in the preservation of ischemic myocardial tissue in the perfused cat heart. Circ. Res., 47: 757-763, 1980). 〈Method〉 Male Wister rats (250-350 g) were killed and their hearts excised. The hearts were then arranged for coronary perfusion with Krebs-Henseleit solution (37 °C, aerated with a gas mixture of 95 % O₂ - 5 % CO₂) according to the method of Langendorff. Tension development was monitored with a force displacement transducer attached via a cotton ligature to the ventricular apex with a resting tension of 1.5 g. After a equilibration period of 1 hour, myocardial ischemia was induced by lowering perfusion pressure from 80 cm H₂O to 12 cm H₂O for 90 minutes. The heart was then reperfused with the previous perfusion pressure of 80 cm H₂O. Rise in resting tension (g) just before reperfusion and developed tension (%) (% of value in equilibration period) 30 minutes after reperfusion were measured. 〈Results〉 Results are shown in Table 3.

Two routes of administration tested were as follows: 1) intravenous (into tail vein) administration in which calculation of LD₅₀ was according to up and down method and 2) oral administration in which calculation of LD₅₀ was according to probit method. Compound No. 110 was diluted in physiological salt solution (0.9 % sodium chloride) for intravenous administration and distilled water for oral administration. 〈Results〉 Results are shown in Table 4.
