Diphenyl disulfide compounds

Abstract: Diphenyl disulfide compounds having an inhibiting activity against the production of Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) or the release of Tumor Necrosis Factorα (TNFα), which are useful in the treatment or prophylaxis of the diseases such as chronic rheumatism and sepsis.

Description: This invention relates to novel diphenyl disulfide compounds having the activities to inhibit the production of Interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and the release of Tumor Necrosis Factor α (TNFα). BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION IL-1β is a protein produced mainly from immunocompetent cells such as macrophages and neutrophils, which is an important factor for immune response. Also, it is known to be a factor playing a central role in the inflammatory process or a factor participating in many vital reactions such as hematopoiesis, internal secretion and nervous system. For instance, there has been recently clarified the relationship between IL-1β and inflammatory diseases such as chronic rheumatism. IL-1β was detected in the synovial membrane of patients suffering from chronic rheumatism. It was reported that the IL-1β level in synovial fluid correlated with observations on the local inflammation. 2,2'-Diamino-diphenyl disulfide and 4-amino-2'-nitrodiphenyl disulfide are known as one of the starting materials for synthesis of organic compounds, respectively in WO 92/05164 and "Phosphorus and Sulfur", 1987, vol. 32, certain diphenyl disulfides are used in EP-A-0 611 757 as intermediates. pp. 91-97. However, there is no reference to their pharmaceutical uses. Steroidal agents and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents have been used for the treatment of inflammatory diseases such as chronic rheumatism. Steroidal agents can achieve remarkable improvement in various symptoms of inflammatory diseases, but they present the problems that drug tolerance may be developed by administration over a prolonged period of time and that side-effects, sometimes serious, such as gastrointestinal disturbance, dermatopathy and nephritis may be caused. Non-steroidal agents can temporarily inhibit inflammatory symptoms, but they cannot radically cure inflammatory diseases. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Under these circumstances, we have found that new diphenyl disulfide compounds have potent activities to inhibit the production of IL-1β and the release or liberation of TNFα, which are useful as a therapeutic agent for chronic rheumatism and sepsis. The present invention provides a new diphenyl disulfide compound of formula (I) and the pharmacologically acceptable salts thereof. wherein R 1 is a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic group containing two nitrogen atoms as a hetero atom; said heterocyclic group condensed with a phenyl ring; an amino group; or an amino group which is mono-substituted by a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic group containing two nitrogen atoms as a hetero atom or by said heterocyclic group condensed with a phenyl ring; R 2 is a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic group having two nitrogen atoms as a hetero atom; said heterocyclic group condensed with a phenyl ring; an amino group; an amino group which is mono-substituted by a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic group containing two nitrogen atoms as a hetero atom or by said heterocyclic group condensed with a phenyl ring; or a nitro group; and R 3 and R 4 may be the same or different and each is a hydrogen atom; an alkyl group of 1 - 4 carbon atoms; an alkoxy group of 1 - 4 carbon atoms; an amino group; or a nitro group; provided that, when R 1 is an amino group, R 2 is not an amino or nitro group. The present invention also provides a pharmaceutical composition which comprises as an active ingredient the diphenyl disulfide compound of formula (I) or a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof. The present invention also includes a pharmaceutical composition having the activities to inhibit the production of IL-1β and the release of TNFα, which is useful as a therapeutic agent for chronic rheumatism and sepsis. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The groups R 1 and R 3 are substituted on one phenyl ring in the compound of formula (I), while the groups R 2 and R 4 are substituted on the other phenyl ring. These groups R 1 to R 4 are substituted at any position in each phenyl ring, but preferably substituted at the 2- and 4-positions. Examples of the 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic groups as defined for R 1 and R 2 include heteroaromatic groups such as imidazolyl, pyrazolyl, pyrazinyl, pyrimidinyl and pyridazinyl groups; and non-aromatic heterocyclic groups such as imidazolinyl, pyrazolinyl, imidazolidinyl, pyrazolidinyl, piperazinyl, hexahydropyrimidinyl and hexahydropyridazinyl groups. Examples of the 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic groups condensed with a phenyl ring as defined for R 1 and R 2 include condensed heteroaromatic groups such as benzimidazoyl, cinnolinyl, purinyl, indazolyl, quinoxalinyl and quinazolinyl groups; and non-aromatic condensed heterocyclic groups such as benzpyrazolidinyl, benzimidazolidinyl and benzpiperazinyl groups. Examples of the C 1 -C 4 alkyl groups as defined for R 3 and R 4 include straight or branched alkyl groups such as methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl and tert-butyl groups. Examples of the C 1 -C 4 alkoxy groups as defined for R 3 and R 4 include those derived from straight or branched alkyl groups of 1 - 4 carbon atoms, e.g. methoxy, ethoxy and n-propoxy groups. The compounds of formula (I) can be synthesized according to various processes. One of these processes comprises reacting a di(aminophenyl)disulfide compound of formula (II) wherein R 3 and R 4 are as defined above, with a halide of the formula R'Hal or a mixed halide wherein R' is a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic group containing two nitrogen atoms as a hetero atom or said heterocyclic group condensed with a phenyl ring and Hal is a halogen atom, by which one or both of the amino groups in the compound of formula (II) is mono-substituted by said heterocyclic group. This reaction is carried out by using 0.5 - 4 moles of the compound of the formula R'Hal per mole of the compound of formula (II). When the halide is used in lower mole, the product may be predominantly prepared wherein one of the amino groups is mono-substituted by the heterocyclic group. When the halide is used in higher mole, the product may be predominantly prepared wherein both of the amino groups are mono-substituted by the heterocyclic groups. This reaction is carried out in an inert organic solvent, preferably in the presence of an acid binding agent such as an inorganic base, e.g. sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, sodium carbonate and potassium carbonate and an organic base, e.g. pyridine, picoline and lutidine. As the inert organic solvent may be used any organic solvents giving no adverse effect on the reaction, which include an alcohol such as methanol, ethanol, propanol and butanol; a hydrocarbon such as acetone, a ketone, e.g. methyl ethyl ketone; cyclohexane, benzene and toluene; and an ether such as ether and tetrahydrofuran. The reaction is carried out at a temperature ranging from ordinary temperature to a boiling point of the solvent used. Alternatively, the compound of formula (I) can be prepared by reacting a mercapto compound of formula (III) or a reactive derivative thereof wherein R 1 and R 3 are as defined above, with a mercapto compound of formula (IV) or a reactive derivative thereof wherein R 2 and R 4 are as defined above to form the disulfide bond. In this instance, the reaction of two mercapto compounds may be carried out by using a suitable oxidizing agent, e.g. hydrogen peroxide, iodine, bromine, a hypoiodite and sulfuryl chloride. Alternatively, this reaction can be performed by converting the mercapto group of either the compound (III) or the compound (IV) to the corresponding mercury salt, zinc salt or lead salt and another mercapto group to the corresponding sulfenyl chloride, followed by reacting both compounds. This reaction may be preferably conducted in an inert organic solvent as recited above. The reaction is carried out at a temperature ranging from ordinary temperature to a boiling point of the solvent used. Illustrative examples of the compounds of formula (I) are shown by way of the following chemical structures: If desired, the diphenyl disulfide compounds of formula (I) may be converted, with pharmacologically acceptable acids, to the corresponding salts which are included within the scope of this invention. Examples of the pharmacologically acceptable acids include a mineral acid such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, hydrobromic acid and phosphoric acid; an organic sulfonic acid such as methane sulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid and p-toluenesulfonic acid; and an organic carboxylic acid such as acetic acid, propionic acid, oxalic acid, succinic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, lactic acid, tartaric acid, malic acid and citric acid. This conversion reaction may be performed according to a conventional salt-forming process. The compounds of the present invention possess a potent activity to inhibit the production of IL-1β, with low toxicity, which are useful for the prophylaxis or therapy of various diseases in which IL-1β would participate, such as, chronic rheumatism, rheumatic polyarthritis, sepsis, systemic lupus erythematosus, systemic scleroderma, Behcet disease, periarteritis nodosa, colitis ulcerosa, active chronic hepatitis, glomerular nephritis, ostearthritis, gout, atherosclerosis, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis and osteoporosis. Further, the present diphenyl disulfide compounds possess the activity to inhibit the release of TNFα, which are useful for the prophylaxis or treatment of the diseases wherein TNFα would participate in the pathological progress. Such diseases include acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) in addition to the diseases in which IL-1β would participate, e.g. chronic rheumatism, rheumatic polyarthritis, sepsis and atopic dermatitis. A dose of the present compound to exert an effective activity is usually 5 mg to 6 g per adult daily, preferably 10 - 300 mg. Administration of the present compound include, for example, oral, intravenous, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intrarectal or intra-articular administrations, oral, intra-articular and intravenous administrations being preferable. The present compounds can be formulated for administration by any conventional methods for forming pharmaceutical preparations. Examples of preparations include solid preparations such as tablets, granules, powders, hard capsules and soft capsules, and liquid preparations. The solid preparations may contain any conventional components such as binders, e.g. dextrin, hydroxypropylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, polyvinyl pyrrolidone and macrogol; excipients, e.g. lactose, corn starch, calcium phosphate and magnesium aluminum metasilicate; lubricants, e.g. calcium stearate and talc; disintegrators, e.g. carboxymethyl cellulose and crystalline cellulose. The tablets may be coated by any methods known in the art. The liquid preparations include aqueous or oily suspensions, emulsions, solutions, syrups, elixirs and others. Alternatively, they may be any dried products capable of being redissolved in water or other suitable vehicle before use. Such liquid preparations may contain any conventional additives such as suspending agents, e.g. sorbitol syrup, carboxymethyl cellulose, gelatin, hydroxyethyl cellulose, aluminium stearate gel and hydrogenated edible oils; emulsifying agents, e.g. lecithin, glycerol monostearate and acasia; non-aqueous vehicles, e.g. palm oil, propylene glycol and ethanol; and antiseptics, e.g. ethyl p-hydroxybenzoate and sorbic acid. Dosage forms for parenteral administration include injections and suppositories. Injections may be prepared by a conventional method, if required, by incorporating in the present compounds a pH adjusting agent, a buffer, a stabilizer, a preservative, a solubilizing agent and the like. This invention is further illustrated by the following examples. Example 1 3.85 g of 2-chloropyrimidine and 6.02 g of 2-aminobenzene disulfide were heated under reflux in ethanol for 18 hours.
