Description: CONDENSED HETEROCYCLIC COMPOUNDS , THEIR PRODUCTION AND USE AS GnRH ANTAGONISTS 5 TECHNICAL FIELD * This invention relates to a novel condensed heterocyclic compound or a salt thereof having an excellent gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor antagonistic action and/or an excellent action 10 to improve sleeping disturbances, a process for producing it, and a pharmaceutical composition containing it. GnRH is a decapeptide consisting of 10 amino acids produced in hypothalamus, and controls secretion of, 15 for example, luteinizing hormone or follicle stimulating hormone through a receptor considered to exist in an anterior lobe of pituitary gland, and, as a result, GnRH has been known as showing various physiological activities including induction of 20 ovulation. Therefore, specific and selective antagonistic or agonistic agents for these receptors control an action of hormone produced from hypothalamus and suppress the secretion of anterior pipuitary hormone, thus these agents are expected to serve as 25 prophylaxis or therapy of diseases dependent on anterior lobe of hypophysis. Since 1971 when GnRH was discovered, a number of its analogues have been synthesized expecting their agonistic or antagonistic activities. For example, 30 leuprorelin, which is a peptide, has a higher affinity to GnRH receptor than GnRH obtained from natural i.^ ( sources, and, is hardly susceptible to metabolism. } Leuprorelin acetate, which has 20 to 50 times as « much activity as natural-type GnRH, by its repeated 35 administration, reduced the release and production of gonadotropin, causing, for example, decreased reactivity to gonadotropin in testicle to reduce the productivity of testosterone to the level of castration. As a result, it has been known that leprorelin acetate shows anti-tumor activity against such hormone-dependent cancers, for example, prostatic cancer. In practice, leuprorelin acetate has been widely used as a therapeutic agent of, for example, prostatic cancer and endometriosis in the clinical field. However, these GnRH agonists are peptide and poor in oral absorbability, thus the administration forms are necessarily restricted, and, showing a transient agonistic activity, increasing the concentration of serum steroid hormone, and, in some cases, a transient aggravation such as osseus pain is observed. On the other hand, in the modern society, those who have various mental disturbances and complain of sleeping disturbances, accompanied with social structure becoming more and more complicated and with increase of number of aged people, have increased. Sleeping disturbances include, for example, insomnia caused by stress, poriomania at night and depression of activity in day time due to abnormal circadian rhythm, jet lag caused by overseas travel and abnormal physical conditions caused by a three-shift system. Those who complain of these symptoms are, in general, administered with hypnotics such as 1,4-benzodiazepine type drugs, and all of these drugs have 1,4- benzodiazepine structure. This basic structure is thus considered to be essential for the action to induce sleeping. While benzodiazepine-type drugs have been considered relatively safe, several problematic points are still found in them. More specifically, so-far known benzodiazepine-type hypnotics increase, among two fundamental sleeping conditions, i.e. REM sleep and non-REM sleep, increase REM-sleep latent period (time elapsing between the start of sleeping and the occurrence of the first episode), and decrease the REM- sleep period. Besides, suppression of REM sleep known as relating to fixation of memory is considered to possibly cause anterograde amnesia. Therefore, administration of such drugs as above to patients readily suffering from defects of memory such as senile dementia is not desirable. Further more, it has also been known that ' conventional benzodiazepine-type drugs, if the administration of them is discontinued, there may be considerable rebound in the amount and density of REM sleep, thus these drugs are not necessarily satisfactory from the practical viewpoints. BACKGROUND ART In JP54-135788, there is a description that a compound represented by the formula: , wherein X stands for H, halogen, lower alkyl or lower alkoxy; n denotes 1 or 2; R and R independently stand for H or a lower alkyl, either one of the two bonds shown by dotted line is a double bond, provided that, when R is a lower alkyl, it is combined to a nitrogen atom which does not form double bond, and, when X and R 1 are H and n is 1, R is a lower alkyl has an antianxiety action and an analgesic action. And, it is described that the diazepin derivative in WO94/17075 have an antiviral action. Under the background as described above, studies aiming at synthesizing a therapeutic drug which is expected to have an excellent GnRH receptor antagonistic action or an action of improving sleeping disturbances and has no such undesirable side-effects as mentioned above, have been diligently conducted. However, compounds, which have such an excellent GnRH receptor antagonistic action or action of improving sleeping disturbances as being a sufficiently satisfactory medicine, have not yet been found.

(B) Preparation of membrane fraction of rat pituitary anterior lobes containing GnRH receptors Forty Wister rats (8-week old, male) were killed and the pituitary anterior lobes were collected and washed with an ice-cooled homogenate buffer (25 mM Tris (tris(hydroxylmethyl)aminomethane)-HCI buffer containing 0.3M saccharose, 1 mM EGTA (glycolether diamine tetraacetate), 0.25 mM PMSF (phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride), 10 U/ml aprotinin, 1 μg/ml pepstatin, 20 μg/ml leupeptin, 100 μg/ml phosphoramidone, 0.03% sodium azide, pH 7.5) . In 2 ml of the homogenate buffer, the pituitary gland was suspended, which was homogenated by using a Polytron homogenizer. The homogenate was subjected to centrifuge for 15 minutes with 700 xg. The supernatant was put in an ultracentrifugal tube, which was subjected to centrifuge for one hour at 100,000 xg to give membrane fraction as precipitate. This precipitate was suspended in 2 ml of an assay buffer (25 mM Tris-HCl containing 1 mM EDTA (ethylenediamine tetraacetate), 0.1% BSA (bovine serum albumin), 0.25 mM PMSF, 1 μg/ml pepstalin, 20 μg/ml leupeptin, 100 μg/ml of phosphoramidon and 0.03% sodium azide, pH 7.5), which was subjected to centrifugal separation for one hour at 100,000 xg. The membrane fraction recovered as precipitate was again suspended in 10 ml of the assay buffer, which was distributed into vials and stored at -80°C until used. (C) Preparation of membrane fraction of bovine pituitary anterior lobes containing GnRH receptors By substantially the same procedure as in (B) membrane fraction of bovine pituitary anterior lobes containing bovine GnRH receptor was prepared, provided that the supernatant obtained by 10,000 xg centrifugation was subjected to centrifugal separation at 100,000 xg for one hour to obtain the membrane fraction as precipitate. (D) Preparation of membrane fraction of CHO (Chinese Hamster Ovary) cells containing human GnRH receptors CHO cells (10 ) expressing human GnRH receptors were suspended in a phosphate-buffered saline supplemented with 5 mM EDTA. The suspension was subjected to centrifugal separation for 5 minutes at 100 xg. To the pellet of cells was added 10 ml of a homogenate buffer for cells (10 mM NaHC0 3 , 5 mM EDTA, pH 7.5), which was homogenated by using a Polytron homogenizer. Centrifugal separation was conducted for 15 minutes at 400 xg. The supernatant was taken into an ultracentrifugal tube, which was subjected to centrifuge for one hour at 100,000 xg to give precipitate of the membrane fraction. The precipitate was suspended in 2 ml of the assay buffer, which was centrifuged for one hour at 100,000 xg. The membrane fraction recovered as precipitate was again suspended in 20 ml of the assay buffer, which was distributed to vials and stored at -80°C until used. (E) Determination of inhibitory rate of 125I- leuprorelin binding In the cases of using rat and human pituitary membrane fractions prepared in (B) and (D), they were respectively diluted with the assay buffer to 200 μg/ml and 188 μl each was distributed to tubes. In the case of using bovine pituitary membrane fraction prepared in (C), it was diluted with the assay buffer to 750 μg/ml and 188 μl each was distributed into tubes. In the case where the membrane fraction of anterior lobes of rat pituitary gland was used, 2 μl of a 0.1 mM compound dissolved in 60% DMSO (dimeth lsulfoxide) and 10 μl of 38 nM 125 I-leuprorelin were added thereto simultaneously. In the case where the membrane fraction of anterior lobes of bovine pituitary gland and the membrane fraction derived from the CHO cells expressing human GnRH receptors were used, 2 μl of a 2 mM compound dissolved in 60% DMSO and 10 μl of 38 nM 125 I-leuproprelin were added simultaneously. For determining the maximum binding amount, a solution for reaction supplemented with 2 μl of 60% DMSO and 10 μl of 38 nM 125I-leuprorelin was prepared. And, for determining the amount of non-specific binding, a solution for reaction supplemented with 2 μl of 100 μM leuprorelin dissolved in 60% DMSO and 10 μl of 38 nM 125 I-leuprorelin were also prepared simultaeously. In the cases where membrane fractions of anterior lobes of rat and bovine pituitary were used, reaction was allowed to proceed at 4°C for 90 minutes, while in the case where the membrane fraction derived from the CHO cells expressing human GnRH receptor was used, reaction was allowed to proceed at 25°C for 60 minutes. The reaction mixtures were respectively subjected to filtration under sucking with Whatman glass fiter (GF- F) processed with polyethyleneimine. After completing the filtration, radioactivity of the 1 I-leuprorelin remaining on the filter paper was measured with a γ- counter. By calculation of (TB-SB)/(TB-NSB) x 100 (SB: radioactivity obtained when a compound was added, TB: radioactivity for the maximum binding, NSB: radioactivity for the non-specific binding ) , the binding inhibitory rate of each test compound was determined. Besides, the inhibitory rates were determined by changing the concentrations of test compounds, and the concentration of a test compound inhibiting the specific binding by 50% (IC 50 value) was calculated by way of Hill plot. The results are shown in Table 1.
