Description: The present invention relates to novel and pharmaceutically useful fused thiophene compounds, pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof useful as medical agents for central nervous system and circulatory system, and pharmaceutical uses thereof, and further novel synthetic intermediates for said fused thiophene compounds. The benzodiazepine compounds have been widely used as antianxietic agents. Though these compounds have potent anxiolytic action, they have side effects such as muscle-relaxation effect, sedative action, drug dependence and so on. Therefore, there are some problems that these agents must be cautiously applied to patients suffering from anxiety neurosis like psychosomatic disease in the daytime (usually called as daytime anxiety). Recently, the researches for compounds having non-benzodiazepine structure have been devoted to the development of antianxietic drugs which act selectively on anxiety. The representative of such compounds is buspirone (INN). Differing from hitherto benzodiazepine compounds, buspirone is known not to bind to benzodiazepine receptor but has high affinity for serotonin 1A receptor and exhibits antianxietic action by an interaction with serotonin 1A receptor. Since such new compounds have superior property such as high safety, less habit-forming and less probability of abuse, they are expected to be new prototype of antianxietic drugs. However, the problems to be solved still remain since they need long time to exhibit their activities and have side effects in extrapyramidal system. The existing antipsychotic drugs are effective on so-called positive symptoms like hallucination, delusion or the like as well as on psychomotor excitement but not effective on negative symptoms like apathy, abulia, disorder of cognition and so on. Further, unavoidable side effects such as acute dystonia, akathisia or Parkinsonism are observed at the initial stage of treatment with antipsychotic drugs and extrapyramidal syndromes like late dyskinesia are observed during the long term administration. Because of the limitation of the treatment with the existing antipsychotic drugs, the development of antipsychotic drugs which are effective on negative symptoms and with reduced side effects has been expected. From this point of view, it is desired to develop new antipsychotic drugs which have affinity for both serotonin and dopamine receptors and especially bind more selectively to serotonin receptor. Recently a relationship between serotonin 1A receptor and hypotensive action has been reported. That is, it is known that 8-hydroxy-2-dipropylamino-tetralin (8-OH-DPAT) which has high affinity for serotonin 1A receptor lowers blood pressure through serotonin 1A receptor of medulla oblongata. In accordance with this fact, the compounds having high affinity for serotonin 1A receptor can be developed as an anti-hypertensive drug. This kind of compound is expected to be a useful antihypertensive drug because it does not cause rebound phenomenon, hyposalivation or sympatheticotonia (that is, bradycardiac action rather than tachycardiac action). For example, it is known that piperazine derivatives are one of such drugs exhibiting hypotensive action by central action mechanism (U.S. Patent No.4,833,142). EP-A-0 329 168 discloses a series of psychotropic heterobicycloalkyl piperazine derivatives of Formula A wherein V is either (A) or (B) in which one of Q 1 , Q 2 or Q 3 is an oxygen or sulfur atom and the other two Qs are carbon atoms bearing either a hydrogen atom or R which is a C 1-4 alkyl group; W is CH, N. CH 2 or a chemical bond; X is CH, N, SO 2 or CO with the proviso that both W and X cannot be N at the same time. The dotted line accompanying the full line can be either a single or double bond; and Z is a heteroaromatic ring system selected from pyrimidine, 1,2-benzisothiazole, thieno[3,2 - c ]pyridine, and furo[3,2 - c ]pyridine, or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt or solvate therof. Table 1, page 13, identifies various members of the class specified where Z is pyrimidine, including the compounds of Examples 7 and 10. The present inventors have made intensive investigations in order to provide compounds having more potent and selective antianxietic action with less side effects than the existing compounds by selectively binding to serotonin 1A receptor. The present inventors have also investigated to find compounds having affinity for serotonin and dopamine receptors, especially more selective affinity for serotonin receptor which are useful as antipsychotic drugs, and further to find compounds useful as exellent antihypertensive drugs which interact with serotonin lA receptors and does not increase heart rare. As a result of such investigations, the present inventors have found novel fused thiophene compounds which accord with the above-mentioned purpose, and completed the present invention. The present invention provides novel fused thiophene compounds useful as anti-anxietic drug, antipsychotic drug or antihypertensive drug and novel synthetic intermediates for the fused thiophene compounds.

Wistar rats deprived of water for 72 hours before the test were used. The rats were placed in a plexiglas conflict test box (light compartment : 38 x 38 x 20 cm, dark compartment: 10 x 10 x 20 cm). A water bottle with a stainless steel spout was fitted to the middle of the outside, so that the spout extended 3 cm into the box at a height of 10 cm above the grid floor. A drinkometer circuit (Ohara Inc., Nihon Koden) was connected with the spout and the number of licks were counted. The rat was placed into the apparatus where an electric shock (0.2-0.3 mA, 0.3 sec) was given once every 20th lick. After the rat received first electric shock, the number of shocks were recorded during the subsequent 3 min. test period. The test compounds were administered orally 1 hour before the test. The minimum effective dose (MED) was defined as the lowest dose producing a statistically significant difference between 0.5% MC-treated (control) and test drug treated punished responses (One-way ANOVA test; P< 0.05).

From the results of various pharmacological experiments, the compounds (I) of the present invention have high affinity for serotonin 1.A (5-HT 1A ), serotonin 2 (5-HT 2 ) and/or dopamine 2 (D 2 ) receptors. Among them, compounds having selective high affinity for 5-HT 1A receptor are useful as potent antianxietic drug with less side effects in the extrapyramidal system (EPS). The compounds having high affinity for not only D 2 receptor but also 5-HT 1A and 5-HT 2 receptors are useful as antipsychotic drug which are effective on negative symptoms such as apathy, abulia or disorder of cognition as well as on positive symptoms such as hallucination, delusion or psychomotor excitement with reduced side effects, for example, EPS. Further, the compounds of the present invention can also be used as drugs for the disease of circulatory system, such as antihypertensive drug which lower arterial pressure and decrease heart rate by interacting with 5-HT 1A receptors. When the compounds of formula (I) of the present invention are used as pharmaceuticals, a therapeutically effective amount of the compounds and adequate pharmacologically acceptable additives such as excipient, carrier, diluent and so on are mixed to be formulated into a form such as tablets, capsules, granules, syrups, injectable solutions, suppositories, dispersible powders or the like and are administered in the form mentioned above. The dosage may generally range about 5 to about 500 mg per day for an adult in a single dose or divided doses in the case of oral administration. Formulation Example of the Pharmaceutical Composition: Tablets containing 10 mg of the compound of formula (I) can be prepared by the following composition. Compound (I) is pulverized with an atomizer to make fine powder having an average particle size below 10µ. The fine powder of compound (I), lactose, corn starch and crystalline cellulose are mixed well in a kneader and then kneaded with a binder paste prepared by polyvinyl pyrrolidone K-30. The wet mass is passed through a 200 mesh sieve and then dried in an oven at 50°C. The dry granule containing 3 to 4% of water content is forced through a 24 mesh sieve. Talc and magnesium stearate are mixed and compressed into tablets by using a rotatory tableting machine with a flat punch of 8 mm diameter.
