Description: This invention relates to sulfonamide derivatives useful as pharmaceuticals. More particularly, this invention relates to: (1) sulfonamide derivatives of formula (I) as hereinafter defined, and non-toxic salts, acid addition salts and solvates thereof, (2) processes for their preparation, and (3) pharmaceutical compositions containing them as active ingredient. Lysosomal hydrolases of neutrophils have an important role in the defence reaction of organisms against tissue damage caused, for example, by microbes or inflammation. Elastase and cathepsin G, which are neutral serine proteinases existing locally in azurophil granules, play a part in the decomposition of connective tissue. In particular, elastase degrades elastic connective tissue by cleaving the cross-linking of elastin which directly maintains the elasticity of e.g. lung tissue, by cleaving the hydrophobic part of protein [J. Cell. Biol., 40 , 366 (1969)] and selectively degrading the cross-linking of collagen as well as elastin [J. Biochem., 84 , 559 (1978)]. It also acts on tissue proteins such as proteoglycans [J. Clin. Invest., 57 , 615 (1976)]. It will be seen therefore that elastase plays an important role in the metabolism of connective tissue. Elastase is inactivated by α 1 -proteinase inhibitor (α 1 -PI) which is a common inhibitor for serine proteinases in vivo and an imbalance of enzyme and inhibitor causes the destruction of tissue [Schweiz. Med. Wshr., 114 , 895 (1984)]. The turnover of elastin in normal tissue is very slow [Endocrinology, 120 , 92 (1978)], but pathological acceleration in degradation of elastin is found under various diseased conditions such as pulmonary emphysema [Am. Rev. Respir. Dis., 110, 254 (1974)], atherosclerosis [Lab. Invest., 22 , 228 (1970)] and rheumatoid arthritis [in Neutral Proteases of Human Polymorphonuclear Leukocytes, Urban and Schwarzenberg, Baltimore - Munich (1978), page 390], which suggests a relationship between elastase and diseases [Infection Inflammation Immunity, 13 , 13 (1983)]. In view of this background, many studies on the development of elastase inhibitors have been conducted recently, and various substances inhibiting elastase have been proposed and many patent applications have been filed. For example, (1) it is disclosed in EP-A-0347168 that the compound of formula (A) (wherein Y A is sulfonyl or carbonyl; (i) R 1A and R 2A , which may be the same or different, each represent, inter alia, hydrogen atom, C1-16 alkyl or a group of the formula (wherein X A is bond, sulfonyl, C1-4 alkylene, C1-4 alkyl substituted by -COOH or benzyloxycarbonyl; is carbocyclic ring or heterocyclic ring; nA is 1-5; and R 4A which may be the same or different, represent, inter alia, hydrogen atom, C1-8 alkyl, C1-14 alkoxy, C1-6 alkylthio, hydroxy, halogen atom, nitro, trihalomethyl, -Z 41A -COOR 43A , -CONR 41A R 42A , a group of the formula in which the group of formula is an amino acid residue; R 49A is hydroxy, C1-4 alkoxy, amino, amino or carbamoyl substituted by one or two C1-4 alkyl, etc.) or (ii) R 1A and R 2A and the nitrogen atom bonded to R 1A and R 2A together represent a heterocyclic ring containing at least one nitrogen atom and substituted by -COOH or an unsubstituted heterocyclic ring containing at least one nitrogen atom; R 3A is hydrogen atom, hydroxy, C1-6 alkyl, etc.; and mA is 1-4) and non-toxic salts and acid addition salts thereof have an inhibitory activity on elastase; (2) it is disclosed in EP-A-0465802 that the compound of formula (B) (wherein R 1B and R 2B , which may be the same or different, each represent, hydrogen, C1-6 alkyl or C3-6 cycloalkyl, or R 1B and R 2B taken together represent -(CH 2 ) nB - (in which nB is 1-6); R 3B is one to five of hydrogen, halogen, C1-12 haloalkyl, C1-12 alkyl, C1-12 alkoxy, C2-12 alkenyl, C3-12 cycloalkyl, mono or bicyclic aryl, -Z B R 5B (in which Z B is O, S, S(O) or SO 2 ; R 5B is hydrogen, C1-18 alkyl, C3-12 cycloalkyl, or phenyl), -NR 6B R 7B (in which R 6B and R 7B , which may be the same or different, each represent hydrogen, C1-12 alkyl, C3-6 cycloalkyl, phenyl, C1-12 alkoxy or -C(O)-R 3B , or R 6B and R 7B taken together represent -C(O)CH 2 CH 2 -C(O)-, -C(O)-C 6 H 4 -C(O)- or -(CH 2 ) XB - (XB is 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6)), or morpholino, imidazolyl or piperazino, etc., bonded to phenyl ring on nitro atom; and R 4B is one to five of hydrogen, halogen, nitro, -C(O)CH 3 , S(O) pB R 9B (pB is 0, 1 or 2; R 9B is hydroxy, -ONa, C1-12 alkyl optionally substituted, cycloalkyl optionally substituted)) and non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof have an inhibitory activity on elastase; (3) it is disclosed in EP-A-0484949 that the compound of formula (C) (wherein R 1C and R 2C , which may be the same or different, each represent hydrogen, C1-6 alkyl or C3-6 cycloalkyl, or R 1C and R 2C taken together represent - (CH 2 ) nC - (in which nC is 1-6); Ar C is optionally substituted phenyl; and Het C is heterocyclic ring containing at least one nitrogen atom, sulfur atom or oxygen atom) have an inhibitory activity on elastase. WO-A-93/11760 discloses a class of aromatic esters of phenylenedialkanoates as inhibitors of human neutrophil elastase. EP-A-0539223 discloses a glycine derivative monosodium salt tetrahydrate having an inhibitory effect on elastase. EP-A-0222608 discloses a class of derivatives of p-guanidinobenzoic acid which have an inhibitory effect on elastase. Synthetic inhibitors of human neutrophil elastase are discussed in Trends in Pharmacological Science, 8 , 303-307 (1987). Human leukocyte elastase inhibitors are discussed in Annu. Rep. Med. Chem., 29 , 195-204 (1994). Few of the compounds known to have an inhibitory activity on elastase have been reported to show an inhibitory activity on elastase by oral administration. Most compounds could not be expected to show an effect by oral administration. In order to show activity by oral administration, pharmaceutical agents must be readily absorbed by the digestive organs and must maintain their activity until they are transported to an active site. Therefore, only those compounds having good stability, absorbability and/or solubility in the digestive organs are expected to show sufficient activity by oral administration. Energetic investigations have been carried out to find new compounds having good inhibitory activity on elastase and also having high safety. As a result, the present inventors have found that these aims may be accomplished by sulfonamide derivatives of the formula (I). Further, we have found that the new compounds have good stability, absorbability and solubility and are active as elastase inhibitors by oral administration. The present invention provides a sulfonamide derivative of formula (I): wherein R 1 is pyrrolidinyl; R 2 and R 3 each, independently, is hydrogen atom or C1-4 alkyl; R 4 is C1-4 alkyl; m is an integer from 0 to 4; and in which R 5 and R 6 each, independently, is 1) hydrogen atom, 2) hydroxy, 3) C1-8 alkyl, 4) C1-8 alkoxy, 5) -M-R 16 (in which M is single bond or C1-8 alkylene), and R 16 is 5-15 membered mono- or bi-cyclic aromatic heterocyclic ring, saturated heterocyclic ring or partly saturated heterocyclic ring containing one to four nitrogen atoms, one or two oxygen atoms or one nitrogen atom and one sulfur atom or oxygen atom, unsubstituted or substituted by 1 to 4 substituents selected from C1-4 alkyl, C1-4 alkoxy, hydroxy, phenyl C1-4 alkyl, -COOR 26 (in which R 26 is hydrogen atom, C1-8 alkyl, phenyl or phenyl C1-4 alkyl), hydroxy C1-4 alkyl or C2-4 alkoxyalkyl), 6) -J-COOR 29 , in which R 29 is hydrogen atom, and J is (in which R 30 and R 31 each, independently, is hydrogen atom or C1-8 alkyl; or in which R 5 and R 6 , taken together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached represent a 3-15 membered mono- or bi-cyclic aromatic heterocyclic ring, saturated heterocyclic ring or partly saturated heterocyclic ring containing one or two nitrogen atoms or one nitrogen atom and one sulfur atom or oxygen atom, q is an integer from 0 to 4, and R 15 is 1) C1-4 alkyl, 2) C1-4 alkoxy, 3) phenyl C1-4 alkoxy, 4) nitro, 5) -COOR 36 (in which R 36 is hydrogen atom, or C1-4 alkyl substituted by -NR 39 R 40 (in which R 39 and R 40 each, independently, is hydrogen atom or C1-4 alkyl), 6) -NR 43 R 44 (in which R 43 and R 44 each, independently, is hydrogen atom, C1-4 alkyl or C2-5 acyl), 7) -CONR 45 R 46 (in which R 45 and R 46 each, independently, is hydrogen atom or C1-4 alkyl substituted by hydroxy, 8) C1-4 alkyl substituted by -OSO 3 H; or a non-toxic salt, acid addition salt or solvate thereof. The sulfonamide derivatives of the present invention are novel compared with compounds disclosed in the prior art. To summarize, the compounds of formula (A) described in EP-A-0347168 necessarily contain a pivaloyloxy group. In contrast, the compounds of the present invention have a phenyl ring which may be substituted by various substituents R 1 . Thus the compounds of the present invention have a chemical structure quite different from that of the compounds of formula (A). The compounds of formula (B) described in EP-A-0465802 include compounds in which R 4B represents S(O) pB R 9B . R 9B can represent hydroxy, -ONa, optionally substituted C1-12 alkyl or optionally substituted cycloalkyl, but can not represent amino group. Further, the compounds of formula (C) described in EP-A-0484949 include those in which a substituent of Ar C represents S(O) pC R 9C . R 9C can represent hydroxy, -ONa, optionally substituted C1-12 alkyl or optionally substituted cycloalkyl, but can not represent amino group. In contrast, the compounds of the present invention have a sulfonamide group which may be substituted by various substituents. Thus the compounds of the present invention have a chemical structure quite different from that of the compounds of formula (B) and (C). Furthermore, related compounds show no activity by oral administration, but some compounds in the present invention have good stability, absorbability and solubility, and are, therefore, active as elastase inhibitors by oral administration.

(2) Inhibitory effects on human polymorphonuclear elastase induced lung hemorrhage in hamster A test compound suspended in 0.5 % Carboxymethylcellulose or 80 % Polyethyleneglycol, 400 or 2 % Tween 80 was administered orally to a group of 5 Syrian hamsters. At60 min after the administration, 10 U/0.1 ml of HSE was injected intratracheally via surgically exposed trachea under pentobarbital anesthesia (60 mg/kg, i.p.) to induce lung injury. At 60 min after the injection, hamsters were bled to sacrifice and subjected to bronchoalveolar lavage with 2.5 ml of saline and recovered lavage solution (BALF). The recovered BALF (0.5 ml) was diluted by 4 times with 2 % aqueous solution sodium carbonate and sonicated for 10 sec. The lavage fluid was further diluted by 2.5 times with 2% aqueous solution sodium carbonate and the amount of blood in BALF was calculated from absorbance at 414 nM using standard curve. Results are shown in Table 48 and 49. Example No. inhibition at 500 mg/kg (%) 1(68) 51 Comp. 1(90) 65 Inv. 2 81 Inv. 2(42) 67 Inv. 2(69) 83 Comp.

The toxicity of the compounds of the present invention is very low. Therefore, the compounds of the present invention may be considered to be sufficiently safe and suitable for pharmaceutical use. The compounds of the formula (I), of the present invention, and non-toxic salts and acid addition salts thereof, possess inhibitory activity on elastase. Accordingly, they are useful for the treatment and/or prevention of diseases induced by an abnormal enhancement of the degradation of elastin, collagen fiber and/or proteoglycan, resulting from the action of elastase on a mammalian animal, especially a human (e.g. chronic obstructive pulmonary disease such as emphysema, rheumatoid arthritis, atherosclerosis, adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), glomerular nephritis, myocardial infarction, idiopathic ulcerative colitis or gingivitis). For the purpose above described, the compounds of the formula (I), of the present invention, or non-toxic salts, acid addition salts or solvates thereof may normally be administered systemically or locally usually by oral or parenteral administration. The doses to be administered are determined depending upon, for example, age, body weight, symptom, the desired therapeutic effect, the route of administration, and the duration of the treatment. In the human adult, the doses per person are generally from 1 mg to 1000 mg, by oral administration, up to several times per day, or from 0.1 mg to 100 mg, by parenteral administration up to several times per day, or by continuous administration for from 1 to 24 hrs. per day from vein. As mentioned above, the doses to be used depend upon various conditions. Therefore, there are cases in which doses lower than or greater than the ranges specified above may be used. The compounds of the present invention may be administered in the form of, for example, solid compositions, liquid compositions or other compositions for oral administration, injections, liniments or suppositories for parenteral administration. Solid compositions for oral administration include compressed tablets, pills, capsules, dispersible powders, and granules. Capsules include hard capsules and soft capsules. In such compositions, one or more of the active compound(s) may be admixed with at least one inert diluent (such as lactose, mannitol, glucose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, microcrystalline cellulose, starch, polyvinylpyrrolidone or magnesium metasilicate aluminate). The compositions may also comprise, as is normal practice, additional substances other than inert diluents: e.g. lubricating agents (such as magnesium stearate), disintegrating agents (such as cellulose calcium glycolate), stabilizing agents (such as lactose), and agents to assist dissolution (such as glutamic acid or asparaginic acid). The tablets or pills may, if desired, be coated with a film of gastric or enteric material (such as sugar, gelatin, hydroxypropyl cellulose or hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose phthalate), or be coated with two or more films. And further, coating may include containment within capsules of absorbable materials such as gelatin. Liquid compositions for oral administration include pharmaceutically-acceptable solutions, emulsions, suspensions, syrups and elixirs. In such compositions, one or more of the active compound(s) contained in inert diluent(s) commonly used in the art (e.g. purified water or ethanol). Besides inert diluents, such compositions may also comprise adjuvants (such as wetting agents or suspending agents, sweetening agents, flavouring agents, perfuming agents, and preserving agents. Other compositions for oral administration include spray compositions which may be prepared by known methods and which comprise one or more of the active compound(s). Spray compositions may comprise additional substances other than inert diluents: e.g. stabilizing agents (such as sodium sulfate), isotonic buffers (such as sodium chloride, sodium citrate or citric acid). For preparation of such spray compositions, for example, the method described in the United States Patent No. 2868691 or 3095355 may be used. Injections for parenteral administration include sterile aqueous or non aqueous solutions, suspensions and emulsions. In such compositions, one or more active compound(s) may be admixed with at least one inert aqueous diluent(s) (e.g. distilled water for injection or physiological salt solution) or inert non-aqueous diluent(s) (e.g. propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, olive oil, ethanol or POLYSORBATE80 (registered trade mark). Injections may comprise additional ingredients other than inert diluents: e.g. preserving agents, wetting agents, emulsifying agents, dispersing agents, stabilizing agents (e.g. lactose), assisting agents such as agents to assist dissolution (e.g. glutamic acid or asparaginic acid). They may be sterilized for example, by filtration through a bacteria-retaining filter, by incorporation of sterilizing agents in the compositions or by irradiation. They may also be manufactured in the form of sterile solid compositions, for example, by freeze-drying, which may be dissolved in sterile water or some other sterile diluent(s) for injection immediately before used. Other compositions for parenteral administration include liquids for external use, and endermic liniments, ointment, suppositories and pessaries which comprise one or more of the active compound(s) and may be prepared by methods known per se.
