Description: DIARYLBENZOPYRAN DERIVATIVES AS CYCLOOXYGENASE-2 INHIBITORS BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to diarylbenzopyran derivatives or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts and cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor composition containing same. 2. Description of the Related Arts Non-steroidal, antiinflammatory drugs(NSAIDs), which have been most prevalently used all over the world, have a problem of causing serious side-effects such as gastrointestinal tract or nephro-toxicity. NSAIDs inhibit the activity of cyclooxygenase(hereinafter tt COX"), which is an enzyme involved in prostagladin synthesis, resulting in the inhibition of the biosynthesis of prostaglandin not only in inflammatory loci but also in stomach and kidney. It has been found that COX exists in the form of isoenzymes: COX-1 and COX-2[Cell, 83,345, (1995)]. COX-1 exists in normal cells and keeps cell homeostasis and controlls the function of stomach and kidney, while COX-2 is expressed by mitogens or cytokines in pain sites where inflammation and other immunoreactions occur[J. Biol. Chem., 271,33157(1996)] and is involved in pathologic phenomenon. Therefore the toxicity of NSAIDs is due to its inhibition of the coexisting COX-l's. To avoid this problem, selective inhibitors of COX-2 has been investigated[Nature, 367, 215(1995)]. The selective inhibitors (i) have suitable antiinflammation, pain-relieving action, antipyretic action; (ii) remove toxicity from and reduce bleeding time in gastrointestinal tract and kidney; (iii) show potential anticancer activity and reduce the induction of mechanism-related side- effect; and also (iv) lower the induction of asthma in asthmatic patients who are sensitive to conventional NSAIDs. These selective inhibitors of COX-2 also show inhibition effect on smooth muscle constriction and could be used in treating Alzheimer's disease and osteoporosis of women after menopausa. Active researches have been made on the selective inhibitors of COX-2. For example, WO 9606840, Bioorg, Med. Chem. Lett. 5, 2377(1995), Ann. Report. Med. Chem., 211(1997) and many other publications report COX-2 inhibitors having heterocyclic moiety as a base structure. The present inventors made extensive researches to provide a new compound capable of inhibiting the COX-2's action selectively and strongly, and as a result found out that the diarylbenzopyran derivatives fulfill the requirements.

Pharmacol.Exp.Ther.166,96( 1969)) After cleaning C57BL/6 mouse's abdomen by 70% EtOH, the skin of mouse's abdomen was eliminated cautiously not to harm peritomeum and 5ml of cold PBS was poured into the abdominal cavity and in certain times later macrophage-bleeding abdominal-liquid was collected by syringe. By adding RPMI- 1640 badge containing penicillin(100unit/m£) and streptomycin(100 mg/ml) to cell pellet obtained by centrifugation of collected liquid about 5 minutes in 1500 rpm, it was disperesed and also COX-1 existing in the cell was inactivated by treating with 500 M aspirin. After putting \ml cell suspension having cell number of 1 x 10 6 cells/m£ into each 24-well microtiter plates, macrophages were adhered to the bottom of plate by culturing in the condition of 5% CO 2 /95% 0 2 , at a temperature of 37 ° C for 2 hours. Other cells not being adhered to were eliminated by washing two times with PBS. The purity of macrophages obtained through this process was identified by differential counting. After adding RPMI- 1640 badge(normally 5 X 10 5 cell/ml) containing 3% right fetal blood serum to macrophage and treating it with LPS(lipopolysaccharide) to make final concentration as 10 g/m£, it was cultured in the condition of 5% CO 2 , at a temperature of 37 ° C for 16 hours. After inducing COX-2 by LPS, the cell culture medium was eliminated and macrophages was washed two times with PBS. And 1 ml of RRPI- 1640 badge was added to each well again and after treating them with sample with appropriate concentration, they were cultured at a temperature of 37 E for 10 minutes. And then treated them with arachidonic acid to make their final concentration as 10 μ M and cultured them additional 10 minutes, all the supernatant liquid of reaction was obtained. The amount of PGE 2 produced in the supernatant liquid of reaction was determined by the PGE 2 radioimmuno assay. The 100% COX-2's activation is referenced by the difference of the amount of PGE 2 produced in the supernatant liquid of reaction between with 10 μ M arachidonic acid treatment and without 10 μ M arachidonic acid treatment. 2.
