The inclusion complex of 3-morpholino-sydnonimine or its salt formed with cyclodextrin derivative is prepared by (a) reacting the 3-morpholino-sydnonimine or its salt in an aqueous medium with a cyclodextrin derivative and the complex is isolated from the solution by dehydratation, or (b) high energy milling of 3-morpholino-sydnonimine or its salt and a cyclodextrin derivative.

Description: Inclusion complexes of 3- orpholino-sydnoπimiπe or its salts or its tautomer isomer, process for the preparation thereof, and pharmaceutical compositions containing the same The invention relates to the inclusion complexes of 3- - orpholiπo-sydnoπimine (SIN-1) or its salts or its open ring "A" form tautomer (SIN-1A: N-πitroso-N-morpholino-amiπo- -acetoπitrile) formed with cyclodextrin derivatives, to the process of their preparation and to pharmaceutical composi- tioπs containing them as active ingredient. The open ring "A" form plays an important role, its formation is predominant for NO (nitricoxid) radical liberation. Molsidomin (N-ethoxycarbonyl-3-morpholino-sydnonimiπe, SIN-10) is a well-known antianginal agent. In the therapy it is widespread applied for the treatment and prevention of angina in the case of heart insufficiency, in the state of heart infarct. The therapeutic effect of Molsidomin can be attributed mainly to its first active metabolite to the 3- -morpholino-sydnonimine, which originates mainly in the liver by enzymatic hvdrolysis and by subsequent effect of the de- carboxylase enzyme. Thus the SIN-1 possesses a therapeutic advantage too compared to Molsidomin, that is its efficacy is quicker and more definite. Its disadvantage is, that it can be applied only in the form of intravenous injections. The sydnonimiπe derivatives are extremely light-sensitive. Due to irradiation with artificial or natural light for only a short time they will be decomposed quickly. In the course of photolysis pharmacologically inactive, but harm¬ less decomposition products as e.g. morpholine, ammonia, ethyl alcohol, carbondioxyde are arising. The aim of some patents is the photostabiliza ion of sydnoni ine derivatives by the addition of different additives. (European Patent Specification No. 206219 and GFR Patent Specification No. 3.346.638). A-47 3 5-77/563 Y - The light-sensitivity can fairly be avoided in dry state and in solution by suitable storage (in a well-closed dark lask wra ' ped with a black paper). It can be generally said that the sydnonimine derivatives are sensitive to extreme pH values, and are decomposed quickly. The final product of the chemical and metabolitic decomposition of Molsidomin is the SIN 1C (cyaπomethylene- -amino-morpholiπe) an inactive metabolite. Applying SIN 1 as a medicament the problems of chemical stability are coming to the front. The substance decomposes quickly in a πeutral- -aqueous solution, it is sensitive to the pH value and it is stable only in a strong acidic medium (pH 1-2). Above pH 2 it decomposes quickly, to the inactive metabolite SIN 1C, that is connected with the loss of therapeutic activity. The SIN 1 —■-> SIN 1C transformation is the result.of base catalyzed hydrolytic decomposition. The process is strictly pH dependent, e.g. to achieve a decomposition of 10% (SIN 1C) 53 sec. at a pH value of 8, 15 hours at a pH of 6, 67 days at a pH of 4, and 13 years at a pH of 1-2 are necessary. (Chan.Pharm.Bull. 19/6 1079, 1971). SIN 1 is also decomposed in a diluted aqueous solution stored in diffused lighting already in 1-3 days. The decomposition can be followed from the UV spectrum directly. The value of the absorption maximum is shifted gradually from 291 + 1 nm to 278 +_ 1 while the value of absorption is increasing conti¬ nuously, which is in harmony with the dates of the literature: the Λ_max. value of SIN 1 is 291 +_ 1 nm, the specific absorption coefficient A --'"- - 520, while the SIN 1C max. is 278 +_ 1 nm, its molar absorption coefficient £.= 17000 A 1% = 1220. lcm SIN 1 applied orally is not effective, between pH 1-2 SIN 1 has presumably a strongly ionized state of favourable chemical stability, which on the other hand is not favourable to the resorptioπ from the Gl tract. Moving along from the stomach at a more basic pH in the sense of the above mentioned facts SIN 1 is transformed quickly into the inactive SIN 1C metabolite. The low dose of the SIM 1 applied is favourable to this transformation as the hydrolytic decom¬ position in low concentrations (of j /ml order) is still more definite. SIN 1 is on the market in the form of its hydrochloride salt, for intravenous acπlication in the form of a lyophili- zed powder ampoule containing 2 mg active ingredient content and 40 mg of sorbite. The content of the a ooule has to be dissolved in 1 ml of distilled water before use. Aim the invention was to prepare such a new agent, by means. cf which the SIN 1 —-> SIN 1C transformation can be hindered still in a neutral-aqueous solution, and at a phy¬ siological pH value respectively. It is known that the comple:<_ιtion with cyclodextrin is suitable to the stabilization of different agents against heat, light and basic or acidic hydrolysis. (Szejtli: Cyclo¬ dextrin Technology, Kluwer, Dordrecht, 1968., pages 211-217). In the course of our investigations we experienced, that the cyclodextrines proved themselves effective to stabilize the dilute-aqueous solutions obtained from the SIN 1 iπjec- table composition. The interaction between SIN 1 and the cyclodextrines was proved by the following test series: From the injectablε SIN 1 composition we prepared an aqueous solution of about 10 λjg/ml and in the solutions 20-40 mg of cyclodextrin or cyclodextrin derivative were dissolved while stirring. The solutions were stored at room temperature (20-22 °C) in diffuse lighting and in certain periods (daily) the UV spectrum of the solutions were registered in the interval between 220-350 nm. As a control only the aqueous solution, and the 0,05 N hydrochloric acid solution were applied res- pectively. The pH value of the cyclodextrin solutions were checked to determine, that cyclodextrin, and the derivative applied respectively do not change significantly the pH value of water. The pH values of the applied cyclodextrin solutions of greatest concentration differed only within 10,2 unit from the pH value of distilled water. We found that the shift of the UV spectrum v/as conspicuously well hindered by CDPSI, an ionic soluble β> -cyclodextrin polymer (average molecule mass 3500, β-CD content 54 %, C00 ~ content: 4,2 h) (Hungarian Patent Specification No. 191.101). The shift of the spectrum was not experienced even -after 2 weeks of storage, while the aqueous solution stored similarly was practically transformed into SIN 1C within 2-3 days. The decomposition hindering, slow down effect of DIMEB (2,6- -di-0-methyl- β -cyclodextrin) is definite too. In the presence of 20 mg/ml DIMEB the spectrum of the solution has shown only a shift within 1 nm after a 6 day storage. We also tested the stabilizing effect of TRIMEB (2,3,6-tri-0- •-methyl- fh -cyclodextrin), of *^-CD, (b -CO and of hydroxy- propyl- -CD. The efficiency sequence concluded from the UV spectrum shift was as follows: CDPSI ^ DIMEB ) TRIMEB βCD HP/3CD. From the effect exerted on the hydrolytic decomposition of SIN 1 by the different cyclcdextrins and outstandingly by " CDPSI a complex interaction can concluded. In the above test series the cyclodextrins, their deri¬ vatives respectively were applied in an extremely great excess (10 jg/ml of SIN 1 vs * ~~ -* 20 mg/ml of cyclodextrin). The test series were repeated in a way, that CDPSI was applied only in a 10 fold, 20 fold excess, which corresponds to a SIN 1; CDPSI weight proportion in a complex containing 10 ., 5 % respectively of the ' active ingredient. The low the¬ rapeutic dose of SIN 1 allows even the application of a complex containing less than 5 % of the active- ingredient, which corresponds to a molar ratio of about 1:2 SIN 1:CDPSI. In such a concentration range the spectrophotometric measure¬ ment is not giving a descriptive picture, for this reason the decomposition degree was determined by thin-layer chromatog- raphy in the following way: From the solutions 10 i were dropwise added on a Kieselgel 60 F25 plate (10X10 cm, Merck). Running mixture: cyclo- hexaπe:ethyl-acetate in a ratio of 1:1. The running tub was let for 30 minutes to saturation. On the plate also SIN 1C reference solution was dropwise added. On the dropping spot the plate was dried in a cold air flow protected from light and it was let to run up to a 15 cm height. During the running period the running tub was put on a dark place. After evaporation of the solvent the plate was evaluated visually in UV light at 254 nm. SIN 1 is presenting itself at 0,05 R f and SIN 1C at 0,36 R . We experienced in every case that in the solutions containing CDPSI the intensity of the SIN 1C spot is visibly smaller as in aqueous solutions. As the transformation of SIN 1 to an inactive metabolite is considerably pH dependent, the measurements were carried out in phosphate buffers of pH 6,4, 7,0 and 7,6 according to the pharmacopoea. In every case the buffer and 20 mg/ml CDPSI containing buffer solutions were compared, all of them by UV spectrophotometric measurement after suitable aqueous-alcoholic dilution, examiπatiπg the intensity of the SIN 1 decomposition product by thinlayer chromatαgraphy. The results of the spectrophotometric measurement are summarized in Table I. TABLE I . The change of the ' max . value as function of time (1 mg/ml SIN 1 + 20 mg/ml CDPSI) The decrease of the maximum UV wavelength of about 13 nm (from 291 nm to 278 nm) represents tne total decomposition of SIN 1 to SIN IC. In the buffer of pH 6,4 in the presence of CDPSI still after 6 days the -s.Λ.was = 7 nm contrarily to the control A Λ. = 12 nm value. The reproductivibility of the UV maximum under the given circumstances was within ± 0,5 nm, thus the difference can be considered as significant. After 1 day of storage the _, λ. difference could be still measured, contrari¬ ly at pH 7,6 the stabilization effect of CDPSI prevails scarcely any longer. In the tested solutions the SIN 1: CDPSI molar ratio was about 1:2, which is the necessary minimum for the co plexation in solution. The stabilizing effect in solution of the 10 fold excess (10 mg/ml) , - corresponding to a complex of 1:1 molar ratio - of CDPSI was prevailing scarcely. The decomposition degree could be followed by thin- layer chromatography too. The SIN 1C spot intensity presenting itself at a 0,36 Rf value in a pH 6,4 buffer differed still after 1 week of storage noticeably, in a 7 and 7,6 buffer after 1 day of storage a perceptible difference was shown in the intensity of the SIN 1 spot at 0,04 . Rf . In the pH 7 buffer the unchanged SIN 1 was still perceptible, in that of 7,6 it was practically no detectable. In solution the equilibrium of the dissociation of the complex can be shifted, applying the cyclodextrin in an excess. Applying an extremely great CDPSI excess (1000, 2000 fold respectively (the iπjectable composition has shown only a spectrum shift ofΔA+1 nm in distilled water after 1 week, while the control solution was practically decomposed. The quantitive measurement of the decomposition degree was carried out by the HPLC method too.

Results: Solutions of 0,5 mg/ml SIN 1 prepared in phosphate buffer of 6,3 pH protected from light were stored at room temperature. Complex was formed with 50 mg/ml (100 fold quantity) of CDPSI. After storage of 5 weeks the HPLC chromatograms were evaluated. x Note: The dates of the control measurement relates to distilled water and not to buffer. CDPSI applied in a 100 fold weight excess (about in a molar ratio of 10:1) is hindering significantly the SIN 1 decomposition. The result obtained is in accordance with the thin-layer-chromatography test. 2. The test was carried out in a pH 7 phosphate buffer too, choosing similar concentration circumstances. (0,5 mg/ml SIN 1 50 mg/ml CDPSI). The chromatograms obtained after 4 days storage were evaluated.

We tested further the stability of SIN 1 injection in a dilute aqueous solution. From the lyophilized SIN 1 powder ampoule an aqueous solution of 50^g/ml concentration was prepared, thereafter 20 mg/ml of CDPSI were added. The solutions were stored at room temperature, and from time to time the SIN 1C decomposition product quantity was determined. The chromatograms obtained after the 1.; 4. and 11. days were evaluated. PC17HU91/00013 - 10 - Evaluation: SIN IC content jug/ml time (days) control CDPSI-complex 0,1 0, 6 0,94 1, 8 Thus object of the present invention is a SIN 1 cyclodextrin derivative and the preparation thereof, which is stable in an aqueous system even at physiological pH and in which the transformation to a SIN IC inactive metabolite is hindered by the applied cyclodextrin derivative. • Surprisingly it was found that with cyclodextrins, espe¬ cially with CDPSI complexed SIN 1 contains a considerable amount of SIN 1A intermediate after the complex preparation. The transformation process of SIN 1 — SIN 1A — - SIN IC in the presence of cyclodextrins was also examined in 0,02 M acetate buffer at pH 5.5. Surprisingly the effect of /3-CD was the most pronaunced, more than 7 fold more SIN 1A was found in the presence of /?>-CD than in the control. (The SIN 1A was detected by HLPC) Testing the biological effect of the compositions according to the invention in vivo, we found that till SIN - 1 applied p.o. in a dose of 1 mg/kg does not ' exert an activity (cardioprotective activity on rats is 11%), ' the cardiopro- tective activity of SIN-1-CDPSI applied p.o. beside the same active ingredient is 42,2%. The good biological effectiveness of SIN 1 - CDPSI complex in the cardioprotective test after oral administration can be attributed to SIN 1A present in the solid complex. The "A" form which plays a key role in the biological effect, can not be formed under the pH of gastric medium, it can be generated in-vitro from SIN 1 substance by incubation it under alkaline pH. Whereas dissolving the CDPSI complex in distilled water considerable amount of SIN 1A can be detected in the aqueous solution. It seems, that the transition of SIN 1 - SIN 1A is promoted by cyclodextrins, and simultaneously the very unstable, oxygen sensitive SIN 1A is stabilized by complexation, which results in slower SIN 1A —•> SIN IC transformation. Thus the smoother onset and the longer duration of action are due to a retarded release of nitric oxide from complexed SIN 1. The following TABLE shows the SIN 1A content of SIN 1 comp¬ lexes with different cyclodextrins prepared according to Example 2 measured right after the preparation by HPLC. SIN 1 physical mixture at the same composition, prepared in the same manner with lactose was used as reference. Table (Sample) Complex SIN 1A content (given in SIN IC equivalent) SIN 1 - CDPSI 1.27 SIN 1 - fb-CD 0.08 SIN 1 - DIMEB 0.06 SIN 1 - HP/3CD 0.115 SIN 1 - lacctose reference Results and conclusions The relaxing effects of the SIN 1-cyclodextrin complexes and of normal SIN 1 were studied in the concentration 1 or 2 pM. All four complexes relaxed the sustained contraction of potassium depolarized strips with a maximal effect of 43% to 53%. SIN 1 (ljuM) was somewhat more effective with a relaxation of 58 %. Maximal relaxation occured with the SIN 1 complexes 23 min to 32 min after administration whereas T/max of SIN I was at 18 min. This difference was statistically significant. The duration of action as measured by T/2 was longer with the cyclodextriπ-co plexes (62 min to 88 min) than with SIN 1 (47 min). This difference was also statistically significant. Thus, the SIM 1-cyclodextriπ-complexes showed a smoother onset and a longer duration of action than normal SIN 1. Since the relaxing effect of SIM 1 is thought to be ' due to nitric oxide released by an oxidative decomposition process it may be concluded that the complexation of SIN 1 with cyclodextrins slowes down this decomposition process. Thus, the smoother onset and the longer duration of action are likely due to a retarded release of nitric oxide from SIN 1- -cyclodextriπ-complexes. According to the facts set forth above the invention referes to inclusion complexes of 3-morpholiπo-sydnonimine or of its salts or its open ring "A" form tautomer iso ers formed with cyclodextrin derivatives. As cyclodextrin derivative the inclusion complexes according to the invention contain advantageously an ionic, water-so¬ luble cyclodextrin polymer (CDPSI) (molecular weight-^10000), heptakis-2,6-dimethyl- (b -cyclodextrin (Dimeb), heptakis- -2,3,6-tri-0-methyl- fb -cyclodextrin (Trimeb) and fb or Γ- cyclodextrin. To the preparation of a solid inclusion complex hydroxypro- ■ pyl- fa -cyclodextrin can be applied too. The inclusion complexes according to the invention are prepared by reacting the 3-morpholino-sydπoπimine or its salts, in a solvent medium with a cyclodextrin derivative and if desired the complex is obtained from the solution by dehydratation, or by high energy milling of the 3-morpholiπo-sydnoπimine or its salts and the cyclodextrin derivative. The complex can be advantageously isolated from the solution by lyophilization, spray-drying, evaporation in vacuum at low temperature and by vacuum drying. The SIN 1 is dissolved with 1-40 mmoles of CDPSI, or Dimeb in. 1-500 ml distilled water calculated for 1 mmole of active in- gredient, thereafter the dehydratation is carried out as ■ mentioned before. The molar ratio of CDPSI polymer is calcu¬ lated on -CD. Thus applying the polymer of about 50 % (b-Cϋ content and of the average 3500 molecular mass the composi¬ tion of the complex of 1:1 ratio corresponds to about 8%, and and that of 2:1 molar ratio to about 4,5 %. Complex interaction in solution was illustrated by the membrane permeation test. Viskiπg type cellophane membrane (average pore diameter 24 A°) was applied. Aqueous solution of SIN 1 at a concentra¬ tion of 1 mg/ml were put in the donor cell, while distilled water was placed in the receptor compartment of the membrane permeation cell apparatus. The solutions were stirred by mag¬ netic stirrers and were kept at 37 _+ 1 °C. At appropriate time intervals samples were taken from the receptor solution and concentration of SIN 1 had permeated from the donor cell was measured by UV-spectrophotometry. The test was repeated in the presence of different cyclo¬ dextrins at different concentrations in the donor cell com- partment. The time required for the diffusion of 50 % SIN 1 (Tςns) in the presence of CDPSI at different concentration are listed in the TABLE. Diffusion half life of SIN 1 in the presence of CDPSI T 50? , (hours) SIN 1 alone 0.9 +CDPSI 25 mg/ml 3.5 50 mg/ml 5.0 The inclusion comσlexes prepared according to the invention can be used to the production of pharmaceutical compositions, combinations respectively for stable injectable, oral or local use. Doses of the inclusion complexes of this invention may ' vary with the age, body weight and conditions of the subject, the administration route, the number of administrations or the like, but is in the range of 6 to 800 mg per day, preferably 10 to 400 mg per day. The retard effect prevails particularly in the case of applying the pharmaceutical composition in the form of one-a day tablets, microcapsules and ointments exceedingly suitable for percutaneous use, respectively. The pharmaceutical compo¬ sitions of the invention are prepared in a customary manner. The adjuvants and carriers are those which are usually used in the field of pharmaceutical preparations. The details of the invention are illustrated below in some examples without limiting the invention to the examples . EXAMPLES 1. Preparation of the SIN-1-CDP5I complex bv lycphjlization. 15 g of (6,6 mmoles) CDPSI polymer are dissolved in 200 ml of distilled water, thereafter to the solution 1,1 g (5,3 mmoles) of SIN 1-HCL are. added. The materials are dissolved almost immediately a pure, clear solution is ob¬ tained, which is instantly frozen and dehydrated by lyophilization, taking care, that in the course of any processes the substance should be exposed to the possible minimal light exposure. It is e.g. expedient to wrap up the alembic with a black paper while dissolving. The product obtained is very light, it is a loose powder, its active ingredient content determined by a spectrophotometric method is: 6,5 +_ 0,5 %, corresponding about to a molar ratio of 1:1. Test proving the fact of complex formation: the thermogra- vimetric (TG), differential-scanning colorimetric (DSC) and the Thermal Evolution Analysis (TEA) tests have shown characteristic differences between SIN 1 the physical mixtures of SIN 1-CDPSI and SIN 1-CDPSI complex. From the SIN 1 active agent at a temperature of 60-110 °C about 8 of an inorganic substance is removed, it is possible that it is water. The decomposition while melting of the subs¬ tance is starting at a temperature of 170-180 °C with an explosive violence and in a very tight temperature inter¬ val 70 % of the introduced agent is removed from the system. Between 220 and 230 °C the decomposition is slowing down, up to 350 °C a 87 % loss of the mass can be registrated. To the identification of the πon-complexed active ingre¬ dient the DSC peak between 190-200 °C and the 190 °C TEA peak causing even in an argon atmosphere an exotherm enthalpy alteration can be used. Tne thermic curves of the SIN 1-CDPSI physical mixture prepared immediately before measuring can be considered as resultants of the starting materials. The curves of the complex are shewing a significant discrepancy from those above, the pointed decomposition peaks cf SIN 1 do not represent themselves, which means, that SIM 1 is really forming an inclusion complex with CDPSI. Powder X-rav diffraction pattern: According to SIN 1 - CDPSI X-ray diffraction tests,, the structure is an amorph one. The characteristic reflection peaks of SIN 1 are disappearing. The amorph structure of CDPSI is known. The crystallisation degree of SIN 1 treated similarly but without CDPSI is though decreasing, but the transition to a total amorph structure is not possible only by lyophilization. 2 <S> reflection peaks - hinting to a slightly crystalline form, characteristic to free (not complexated) SIN 1 can't be found in the complex diagram. 2. Preparation of the SIN 1-CDP5I complex by lyophilization 15 g of CDPSI polymer {£ ,6 mmoles) ( -CD content 53 %, COO " content 4,2 %) are dissolved, in 200 ml of distilled water. In the solution obtained 0,7 g (3,3 mmoles) of SIN 1 are dissolved, thereafter the solution is processed according to example 1. Active ingredient content of the product obtained is 4,5 _+ 0,2 %, corresponding about to a 1:2 molar ratio. 3. Preparation of SIN 1-CDPΞI complex with high and control¬ led SIN 1A content Following the process according to Example 2 the obtained solid product is submitted to a second drying to remove the complex bound water. The product was dried at 60 °C under vacuo for 3 hours, (to a constant weight) Loss on drying: 4,5 +_ 0,2 %. SIN 1A content was increased about five fold during heating, it increased from 1,08 % to 5,1 % while the SIN 1A/SIN IC ratio was also altered favorably, (changed from 10 to 17.) Storing the dried complexes at room temperature protected from light more than 3 months the SIN 1A content and the ratio of SIN 1A/SIN IC of the sample practically was not changed. In the control (not heat-treated) sample during storage the SIN 1A content is also increased from 1,08 % to 1,9 %, at the same time the ratio of SIN 1A/SIN IC decreased (changed from 10 to 3). Preparation of SIN 1-CDPSI complex product with high SIN 1A content and controlled composition is possible by a short term heat-treating of the liophylized SIN 1-CDPSI complex. 4. Preparation of SIN 1 Dimeb complex: 14 g of Di eb (10,3 mmoles) (moisture content 2 %) are dissolved in 100 ml of distilled water. While stirring to the solution 1,03 g (5 mmoles) of SIN 1 are added. The clear solution obtained is processed according to example 1 protected from light. The product is a loose white powder, active ingredient content is 6,5 +_ 0,2 %, the molar ratio corresponds about to 1:2 SIN 1: Dimeb. 5.Preparation of an ointment for percutaneous use with a SIN .1 content of 10 mg and ointment content of 1/2 g. From the SIN 1 - Dimeb complex prepared according to example 3 (active ingredient content 6,5 %) 151 mg are dissolved in 20 ml of distilled water. To the solution protected from light 50 mg of KLUCHEL-HF (hydroxypropyl- cellulose) are added while vigorous stirring. Thus a viscous solution, hardly miscible is obtained, it is let to stay at room temperature for one day. Thus a transparent jelly is formed, 2 g of which are containing 10 mg of SIN 1. 6. SIN 1 tablet with 2 mg active ingredient content/tablet 80 mg of SIN 1-CDPSI complex, active ingredient content 2,5 %, 40 mg of maize startch, 128 mg of milk sugar 2 mg of magnesiumstearate total weight of the tablet: 250 mg The tablets are prepared by the method known per se, by direct pressure.
