Description: TITLE: N 6 HETEROCYCLIC SUBSTITUTED ADENOSINE DERIVATIVES BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of Invention This invention encompasses optimally substituted N 6 -oxa, thia, thioxa and azacycloalkyl substituted adenosine derivatives that are selective adenosine type 1 receptor agonists, and as such, are potentially useful agents for the treatment cardiovascular diseases and central nervous system disorders. Description of the Art There are two subtypes of adenosine receptors in the heart: A, and A 2 . Each subtype effects different physiological functions. Stimulation of the A, adenosine receptor induces two distinct physiological responses. The first is the inhibition of the stimulatory effects of catecholamine. This effect is mediated via the inhibition of cyclic AMP synthesis. The second effect mediated by A, receptors is the slowing of the heart rate and impulse propagation through the AV node. The effect is independent of cAMP metabolism and is associated with A, adenosine receptor activation of the inwardly rectifying K+ channel. This effect is unique to the A, receptor; there is no role for the A 2 receptor in modulating the function of this channel. Stimulation of the adenosine A, receptor accordingly shortens the duration and decreases the amplitude of the action potential of AV nodal cells and subsequently prolongs the refractory period of the cells. The consequence of these effects is to limit the number of impulses conducted from the atria to the ventricles. This forms the basis of the clinical utility of A, receptor agonists for the treatment of supraventricular tachycardias, including atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, and AV nodal re-entrant tachycardia. The clinical utility of A, agonists therefore would be in the treatment of acute and chronic disorders of heart rhythm, especially those diseases characterized by rapid heart rate where the rate is driven by abnormalities in the atπa. The disorders include but are not limited to atrial fibrillation, supra ventricular tachycardia and atrial flutter. Exposure to A, agonists causes a reduction in the heart rate and a regulanzation of the abnormal rhythm thereby restoring improved hemodynamic blood flow. A, agonists, through their ability to inhibit the catecholamine induced increase in cAMP, should have beneficial effects in the failing heart where increased sympathetic tone causing enhanced cAMP has been associated with increased likelihood of ventricular arrhythmias and sudden death. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of this invention is novel heterocyclic substituted adenosine derivatives. Another object of this invention is novel heterocyclic substituted adenosine derivatives that are useful as A, receptor agonists. Still another object of this invention is novel heterocyclic substituted adenosine derivatives that are useful for treating supraventricular tachycardias, including atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, and AV nodal re-entrant tachycardia.

The reaction sequence outlined below, is a general method, useful for the preparation of compounds of this invention. According to this method, oxacycloalkyl carboxylic acid is heated in a mixture of dioxane, diphenylphosphoryazide and triethylamine for 1 hour. To this mixture is added benzyl alcohol and the reaction is further heated over night to give intermediate compound 1. Compound 1 is dissolved in methanol. Next, concentrated HC1, Pd/C is added and the mixture is placed under hydrogen at 1 atm. The mixture is stirred overnight at room temperature and filtered. The residue is recrystallized to give intermediate compound 2. 6-chloropurine riboside is combined and the mixture is compound 2 dissolved in methanol and treated with triethylamine. The reaction is heated to 80° C for 30 hours. Isolation and purification leads to Compound 3. EXAMPLE 2 Compounds of this invention prepared according to the method of Example 1 were tested in two functional models specific for adenosine A, receptor agonist function. The first was the A , receptor mediated inhibition of isoproterenol stimulated cAMP accumulation in DDT cells. The EC50 of each derivative is shown in Table I. Also shown in Table I is the ability of each derivative to stimulate cAMP production in PC 12 cells, a function of agonist stimulation of adenosine A 2 receptors. The ratio of the relative potency of each compound in stimulating either an A, receptor or an A 2 receptor effect is termed the selectivity of each compound for the A, receptor. As can be seen in Table I, each derivative is relatively selective as an A, receptor agonist. The use of measuring cAMP metabolism as an assay for adenosine A , receptor function has been previously described (Scammells, P., Baker, S., Belardinelli, L., and Olsson, R. , 1994, Substituted 1 ,3-dipropylxanthines as irreversible antagonists of A, adenosine receptors. J. Med. Chem 37: 2794-2712, 1994).

Dennis, D. Martens, J, and Shryock J. (1994); The cardiac effects of a novel A,-adenosine receptor agonist in guinea pig isolated heart. J. Pharm. Exp. Therap. 271:1371-1382 (1994). As shown in Figure 1, each derivative was effective in slowing the atrial rate and prolonging the AV nodal conduction time of spontaneously beating hearts in a concentration-dependent manner, demonstrating efficacy as adenosine A, receptor agonists in the intact heart.
