Description:
This is a divisional application of U.S. Ser. No. 08/033,062 filed Mar. 17, 1993, now U.S. Pat. No. 5,318,981, which is a continuation application of U.S. Ser. No. 07/729,271, filed Jul. 12, 1991, now abandoned. 
    
    
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     The neuropeptide cholecystokinin-8 (CCK-8) is an important neuromodulator and neurotransmitter in the brain. There are two types of CCK receptor which are currently referred to as CCK A  and CCK B  receptors. The major of the CCK receptor types in brain is the CCK B  receptor (Review by Woodruff &amp; Hughes, Annual Review of Pharmacology Toxicology 31:469-501 (1991)) . 
     The functional role of CCK in brain is not fully understood. Recently there has been evidence that CCK is involved in anxiety and that CCK B  antagonists have an anxiolytic action in animal models of anxiety (Hughes, et al., Proc Natnl Acad Sci, U.S.A. 87:6728-6732 (1990) . 
     It has recently been shown (de Montigny, C Arch Gen Psychiatry 46:511-517 (1989); Bradwejn J, Koszyckl, D, and Metesissian, G, Can J Psychiatr 35:83-85 (1990) that the injection of the tetrapeptide cholecystokinin (30-33) (CCK-4) into human volunteers or into patients suffering from panic disorder precipitates a panic attack. The tetrapeptide cholecystokinin (30-33) (CCK-4) is a substance that stimulates CCK B  receptors, i.e., is a CCK B  antagonist. The injection of tetrapeptide cholecystokinin (30-33) (CCK-4) into the cerebral ventricles of the brain of rats precipitates the onset of an anxiogenic reaction. This anxiogenic response can be prevented by pretreatment of the rats with the CCK B  antagonist CI-988 (Sing, et al., Proc Natnl Acad Sci U.S.A. 88:1130-1133 (1991)) . 
     The present invention relates to compounds known as dipeptoids and/or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts for use in the prevention of panic attacks in patients prone to these attacks. Suitable compounds are cholecystokinin (CCK) B  antagonists such as [R-(R*,R*)]4-[[2-[[3-(1H-indol-3-yl)-2-methyl-1-oxo-2-[[(tricyclo[3.3.1.1.sup.3,7 ]dec-2-yloxy) carbonyl]amino]propyl]amino]-1-phenylethyl]amino]-4-oxobutanoic acid (CI-988) . 
     The compounds useful in this invention are fully described in Ser. No. 07/629,809, filed Dec. 19, 1990, now U.S. Pat. No. 5,278,316. Methods of preparing the compounds, intermediates useful in their preparation, compositions containing the compounds, and uses of the compounds are disclosed. The uses disclosed include the treatment of obesity, hypersecretion of gastric acid in the gut, gastrin-dependent tumors, psychoses, anxiety, ulcer, depression, withdrawal response produced by chronic treatment or use followed by withdrawal from nicotine, diazepam, alcohol, cocaine, caffeine, or opioids. 
     The disclosure of Ser. No. 07/629,809, now U.S. Pat. No. 5,278,316, is incorporated herein by reference.

     In addition to the compounds above the compounds of the present invention include compounds of formula I wherein the indole moiety is a 2-indolyl. 
     The compounds include solyates and hydrates and pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of formula I. 
     Preferred pharmaceutically acceptable salts are benzathine, chloroprocaine, choline, diethanolamine, ethylenediamine, meglumine, procaine, aluminum, calcium, lithium, magnesium, potassium, sodium, zinc, diethylamine, and tromethane. 
     Especially preferred pharmaceutically acceptable salts are N-methylglucamine and sodium. 
     The compounds of the present invention can have multiple chiral centers including those designated in the above formula I by an     depending on their structures. For example, when R 3  taken with R 12  and R 4  taken with R 13  form double bonds to these carbon atoms they are no longer chiral. In addition, centers of asymmetry may exist on substituents R 1 , R 9 , R 3 , R 4  and/or Ar. In particular the compounds of the present invention may exist as diastereomers, mixtures of diastereomers, or as the mixed or the individual optical enantiomers. The present invention contemplates all such forms of the compounds. The mixtures of diastereomers are typically obtained as a result of the reactions described more fully below. Individual diastereomers may be separated from mixtures of the diastereomers by conventional techniques such as column chromatography or repetitive recrystallizations. Individual enantiomers may be separated by convention method well known in the art such as conversion to a salt with an optically active compound, followed by separation by chromatography or recrystallization and reconversion to the nonsalt form. 
     The compounds of the present invention can be formed by coupling individual substituted -amino acids by methods well known in the art. (See, for example, standard synthetic methods discussed in the multi-volume treatise &#34;The Peptides, Analysis, Synthesis, Biology,&#34; by Gross and Meienhofer, Academic Press, New York.) The individual substituted alpha amino acid starting materials are generally known or, if not known, may be synthesized and, if desired, resolved by methods within the skill of the art. (Synthesis of racemic [DL]-α-methyl tryptophan methyl ester--see Braa, M. F., et al., J. Heterocyclic Chem., 1980, 17:829.) 
     For preparing pharmaceutical compositions from the compounds of this invention, inert, pharmaceutically acceptable carriers can be either solid or liquid. Solid form preparations include powders, tablets, dispersible granules, capsules, cachets, and suppositories. 
     A solid carrier can be one or more substances which may also act as diluents, flavoring agents, solubilizers, lubricants, suspending agents, binders, or tablet disintegrating agents it can also be an encapsulating material. 
     In powders, the carrier is a finely divided solid which is in a mixture with the finely divided active component. In tablets, the active component is mixed with the carrier having the necessary binding properties in suitable proportions and compacted in the shape and size desired. 
     For preparing suppository preparations, a low-melting wax such as a mixture of fatty acid glycerides and cocoa butter is first melted and the active ingredient is dispersed therein by, for example, stirring. The molten homogeneous mixture is then poured into convenient sized molds and allowed to cool and solidify. 
     The powders and tablets preferably contain 5 to about 70% of the active component. Suitable carriers are magnesium carbonate, magnesium stearate, talc, lactose, sugar, pectin, dextrin, starch, tragacanth, methyl cellulose, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, a low-melting wax, cocoa butter, and the like. 
     The term &#34;preparation&#34; is intended to include the formulation of the active component with encapsulating material as a carrier providing a capsule in which the active component (with or without other carriers) is surrounded by a carrier which ie thus in association with it. Similarly, cachets are included. 
     Tablets, powders, cachets, and capsules can be used as solid dosage forms suitable for oral administration. 
     Liquid form preparations include solutions, suspensions, and emulsions. Sterile water or water-propylene glycol solutions of the active compounds may be mentioned as an example of liquid preparations suitable for parenteral administration. Liquid preparations can also be formulated in solution in aqueous polyethylene glycol solution. 
     Aqueous solutions for oral administration can be prepared by dissolving the active component in water and adding suitable colorants, flavoring agents, stabilizers, and thickening agents as desired. Aqueous suspensions for oral use can be made by dispersing the finely divided active component in water together with a viscous material such as natural synthetic gums, resins, methyl cellulose, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, and other suspending agents known to the pharmaceutical formulation art. 
     Preferably the pharmaceutical preparation is in unit dosage form. In such form, the preparation is divided into unit doses containing appropriate quantities of the active component. The unit dosage form can be a packaged preparation, the package containing discrete quantities of the preparation, for example, packeted tablets, capsules, and powders in vials or ampoules. The unit dosage form can also be a capsule, cachet, or tablet itself, or it can be the appropriate number of any of these packaged forms. 
     The dipeptoids, their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrates, and solyates are administered to mammals, e.g., humans. 
     The diagnosis of the group of disorders covered herein is the predominant disturbance as in Panic Disorder as in the third edition-revised of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual Of Mental Disorders (DSM-111-R), published by the American Psychiatric Association (1987) . 
     Pharmaceutical Formulations 
     In the following examples of pharmaceutical formulations according to the present invention, unless otherwise indicated, the term &#34;Active Ingredient&#34; represents a dipeptoid of the invention hereinbefore defined or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The dose represents that appropriate for the base; if a salt is used the dose should of course be increased appropriately.
