Description:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     1. Field of the Invention 
     The present invention relates to quinazolinone derivatives, their acid-addition salt or their quaternary ammonium salt, having an effect of preventing overload of calcium ions (Ca 2+ ) in cells, as well as their usages. 
     2. Description of the Prior Art 
     Overload of calcium ions (Ca 2+ ) in cells has been regarded as an important matter in the cell injury mechanism after ischemia or reperfusion. See, for example, Annu. Rev. Physiol., 1990, 52, 543-559. Cell injuries caused by ischemia or reperfusion are observed in many diseases routinely encountered, and those in heart, brain and kidney, among others, are serious problems experienced clinically. Thus, an agent preventing overload of calcium ions could be a useful preventing or treating agent for ischemic heart disease, ischemic cerebral disease and ischemic renal disease. 
     Heretofore, a calcium antagonist has been used as an agent for preventing the influx of calcium ions into myocardial cells or blood vessel smooth muscle cells. However, its effect on the overload of calcium ions in myocardial cells after ischemia or reperfusion is not satisfactory. Thus, an agent for preventing the calcium overload has been keenly desired. 
     Calcium ion overload induces injuries in myocardial cells or smooth muscle cells, such as disorders, not only in case of ischemia, but in the contraction and relaxation function and in the energy metabolism, as well as morphological damages and electro-physiological disorder, thus causing diseases in the circulatory organs. See, for example, Cardionvasc. Res., 1986, 20, 645-651. Accordingly, an agent for preventing calcium ion overload could be a useful preventing or treating agent for circulatory diseases, such as heart failure, hypertension and arrhythmia.

     The starting material represented by the formula (2) are commercially available, or can be synthesized according to any of the methods described in the literatures, for example, J. Org. Chem., 1991, 56, 3750-3752; J. Heterocyclic Chem., 1989, 26, 105; Chem. Pharm. Bull., 1978, 26, 1633-1651; and J . Med. Chem., 1974, 17, 624-630. The protective group for amino, alkylamino or hydroxy group may be an ordinary one employed in the field of organic synthetic chemistry, for example, a benzyl or acetyl group for the protection of hydroxy group, and a benzyl group for the protection of amino group. Such a protective group may be introduced or removed according to any conventional method, for example, that described in &#34;Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis&#34;, 2nd Ed., John Wily &amp; Sons, Inc.: New York. 
     The ketone derivatives represented by the formula (2) may be converted to the amide derivatives represented by the formula (3) according to any known method, for example, by an acylation with a trihaloacetic acid or its acid chloride. 
     The quinazolinone derivative of the formula (5), its imine derivative of the formula (6) or a mixture of the both derivatives can be obtained by the reaction of the ketone derivative of the formula (3) with a primary amine of the formula (4) in an aprotic polar solvent, such as dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide .and tetrahydrofuran, at temperature of 0° C. to 50° C. The amount ratio of the quinazolinone derivative of the formula (5) and the imine derivative of the formula (6) formed varies depending on the structure of the ketone derivative of the formula (3) and the primary amine of the formula (4), and the reaction conditions. The imine derivative of the formula (6) can be converted to the quinazolinone derivative of the formula (5) by heating in a solvent as mentioned above at temperature of about 50° C. to 100° C., or up to the boiling point of the solvent, in the presence of a base. As the base, tertiary amines and aromatic amines, such as triethylamine or pyridine are suitable. 
     The quinazolinone derivative of the formula (5) is treated with sodium borohydride (NaBH 4 ) in an aprotic polar solvent such as dimethylformamide or tetrahydrofuran at a temperature of about 0° C. to ambient temperature to give the quinazolinone derivative of the formula (7) in which the trihalomethyl group has been substituted to a hydrogen atom. In this course of reaction, borane (BH 3 ) might be coordinated to the nitrogen atom in the group Z 1 . In such a case, the borane can be eliminated normally by heat under reflux in an alcoholic solvent such as ethanol or methanol, if necessary, in the presence of an aqueous hydrochloric acid. If no borane is coordinated, such a process is not necessary. 
     The imine derivative of the formula (6) can be derived to the quinazolinone derivative of the formula (7) via the following route: ##STR16## wherein ring W 1 , Z 1 , R 11 , R 21 , Y 1  and X 2  have the same meanings as above. 
     The imine derivative of the formula (6) can be derived to the amine derivative of the formula (8) by reduction with sodium borohydride in an aprotic polar solvent, such as dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide or tetrahydrofuran, at temperature of about 0° C. to 50° C. Then, the diamine derivative of the formula (9) can be obtained by removing the trihaloacetyl group therefrom. The removal of the trihaloacetyl group (namely, deprotection) can suitably be conducted by treating with sodium borohydride in a lower alcohol, such as methanol or ethanol, at temperature of about 0° C. to 50° C. Also, the diamine derivative of the formula (9) can be obtained from the imine derivative of the formula (6) in one step, by treating with sodium borohydride in a lower alcohol, such as methanol or ethanol, at temperature of about 0° C. to 50° C. In this reaction, the imine derivative of the formula (10) might also be formed, which can be converted to the diamine derivative of the formula (9) by the reduction with lithium aluminum hydride (LiAlH 4 ) in an ethereal solvent, such as diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran, at temperature between ambient temperature and the boiling point of the solvent. 
     The quinazolinone derivative of the formula (7) can be synthesized by the reaction of the diamine derivative of the formula (9) with 1.0 to 5 times equivalent of 1,1&#39;-carbonyldiimidazole in a solvent, halogenated hydrocarbon such as methylene chloride, chloroform or diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, acetonitrile, dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide, at a temperature between ambient temperature and the boiling point of the solvent. Also, the quinazolinone derivative of the formula (7) can be synthesized by the reaction of the diamine derivative of the formula (9) with a carboxylic acid chloride, for example, phosgene or alkyl chlorocarbonates, according to the well known procedure. 
     The quinazolinone derivative of the formula (11) can be obtained from the quinazolinone derivative of the formula (7), as required, according to the following procedures: ##STR17## wherein ring W 1 , Z, R 1 , R 2 , Y and T have the same meanings as above. 
     (a) To obtain the compound in which T in the formula (11) is a sulfur atom, a conversion of urea to thiourea. 
     (b) A conversion of Z 1 . 
     (c) Deprotection of the protective group, when R 11  or R 21  in the formula (7) has been protected, or when Y 1  or Z 1  contains a protective group. 
     (d) A conversion of the substituent in R 1 , R 2  or Y 1 , or in Z 1 . 
     The conversion of urea to thiourea can be performed by the reaction with phosphorus pentasulfide in an inert solvent, such as carbon disulfide, toluene or xylene, at a temperature between ambient temperature and the boiling point of the solvent. 
     When, for example, the compound (7) is the quinazolinone derivative of the formula (12), the conversion of Z 1  can be performed by subjecting to a de-benzylating reaction according to any well known method, and then subjecting to a reductive amination or alkylation to give the quinazolinone derivative represented by the formula (15) or (17). ##STR18## wherein ring W 1 , ring E, R 11 , R 21 , Y 1 , X 1  and n have the same meaning as above; A 3  1 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl or ethyl group; A 3  2 represents an alkyl, substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, aryl, substituted aryl, heteroaryl, substituted heteroaryl or --CH 2  R 3  group, wherein R 3  is an alkenyl or alkynyl group, or, A 3  1 and A 3  2 may be bound each other to form a cyclopentane, cyclohexane or cycloheptane ring; and A 3  3 represents an alkyl, substituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, saturated heterocyclic, cycloalkylalkyl, cycloalkenylalkyl, aralkyl, substituted aralkyl, heteroarylalkyl, substituted heteroarylalkyl, or --CH 2  R 3  group, wherein R 3  is an alkenyl or alkynyl group. 
     The reductive aminating reaction can be per formed by treating the compound of the formula (13) and 1 to 5 equivalents of the carbonyl compound of the formula (14) with 1 to 5 equivalents of a reducing agent in a lower alcohol, such as methanol or ethanol, at temperature of 0° C. to 50° C. As the reducing agent, sodium borohydride (NaBH 4 ) or sodium cyanoborohydride (NaBH 3  CN) are suitably used. 
     The alkylating reaction can be performed according to any well known procedure. For example, the compound of the formula (13) is treated with 1 to 5 equivalents of the halide compound of the formula (16) in a solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide, dichloromethane, methanol or ethanol, if required, in the presence of a base such as potassium carbonate or triethylamine, at temperature between 0° C. and the boiling point of the solvent. 
     When the compound of the formula (11) is the quinazolinone of the formula (18), the reductive amination or alkylation can be performed in similar way. The quinazolinone derivative of the formula (18) can be synthesized from the quinazolinone derivative of the formula (20) which own is included in the formula (18), according to the method mentioned above. The quinazolinone derivative of the formula (20) can be obtained preferably by the de-benzylating reaction of the quinazolinone derivative of the formula (19), according to any well known procedure. ##STR19## wherein ring W 1 , R 11 , R 21 , Y and G have the same meanings as above; and A 21  has the same meanings as in A 2 , but, when the group contains a reactive group, such as amino, alkylamino or hydroxyl group, as the substituent, such a reactive group should have been protected by a protective group. 
     When the groups in R 11  or R 12  have been protected, or Y 1  or Z 1  contains a protected group, in the formula (7), the removal of the protective group can be performed according to any conventional procedure for deprotection employed in the field of organic synthetic chemistry, for example, as described in &#34;Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis&#34;, 2nd Ed., John Wily &amp; sons, Inc.: New York. 
     As for the conversion of the substituents in R 1 , R 2  or Y 1 , or in Z 1 , for example, the lower alkylthio group can be converted to a lower alkylsulfinyl or lower alkylsulfonyl group by oxidation; the nitro group can be converted to an amino group by reduction: the amino group can be converted to the mono- or dialkylamino group by alkylation; or the amino group can be acylated. Such conversions of substituents can be performed according to the general procedures ordinarily employed in the field of organic synthetic chemistry. 
     The compound (22), which is the quinazolinone derivative of the formula (11) having a sulfur atom as T, may be synthesized by the diamine derivative of the formula (9) according to the following steps: ##STR20## wherein ring W 1 , R 11 , R 21 , Y 1 , Z 1 , R 1 , R 2 , Z and Y have the same meanings as above. 
     The quinazolinone derivative of the formula (21) can be synthesized by the reaction of a diamine derivative of the formula (9) with 1.0 to 5 times equivalents of 1,1&#39;-thiocarbonyldiimidazole in an solvent, such as methylene chloride, chloroform or other halogenated hydrocarbons, diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, acetonitrile, dimethylformamide or dimethylsulfoxide, at a temperature between ambient temperature and the boiling point of the solvent. Then, the product can be derived, if necessary, to the quinazolinone derivative of the formula (22) through the conversion or deprotection of the substituent in similar way as in the compound (7). 
     The compounds in which the ring W in the formula (1) is a 5 to 10 membered cycloalkene or cycloalkane ring can be synthesized according to the following steps: ##STR21## wherein ring Y 1 , Z 1 , X 1 , Y, R 1 , R 2 , Z and T have the same meanings as above; ring W 2  represents a 5 to 10 membered cycloalkene or cycloalkane ring; R 12  has the same meaning as defined in R 11 , except that the halogen atom is excluded; R 22  has the same meaning as defined in R 21 , except that the halogen atom is excluded; R 5  represents a lower alkyl group; and the thick lines and dotted line in the formulas show the relative steric configuration of each carbon atoms at the adjacent bridgehead, and do not mean sole specific optical isomers, thus the same being applied in the following description. 
     The material compound of the formula (23) may be synthesized according to any method described in literatures (for example, J. Org. Chem., 1992, 57, 7285-7295; Chem. Lett. 1990, 1817-1820). If necessary, the compound (23) of the cis-configuration may be isomerized to the corresponding trans-isomer, the compound (24), before use. The isomerization can be performed by treating with a base in a solvent at a temperature between ambient temperature and the boiling point of the solvent. Preferably, the isomerization is performed in an alcoholic solvent, such as methanol, ethanol or tert.-butanol, using an alkoxide of sodium or potassium. 
     The ketone derivative of the formula (23) or (24) is treated with a reducing agent such as sodium borohydride in an alcoholic solvent, such as methanol or ethanol, at temperature between 0° C. and ambient temperature to give the alcohol derivative of the formula (25), which is then derived to the halide compound of the formula (26) by substituting the hydroxyl group to a halogen atom. The substitution to a halogen atom is suitably performed by the reaction with carbon tetrachloride, carbon tetrabromide, N-chlorosuccinimide or N-bromosuccinimide in a halogenated solvent, such as dichloromethane or 1,2-dichloroethane, at temperature between ambient temperature and the boiling point of the solvent, in the presence of triphenylphosphine. The iodine compound in the formula (26) can be obtained by treating the corresponding chlorine or bromine compound with sodium iodide in a solvent, such as acetone or dimethylformamide, at temperature between ambient temperature and 60° C. 
     The quinazolinone derivative of the formula (27) can be obtained by the reaction of a halide compound of the formula (26) with a primary amine of the formula (4) in a solvent at temperature between ambient temperature and the boiling point of the solvent in the presence of a base. As such solvents, aprotic polar solvents, such as dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide or acetonitrile; alcoholic solvents, such as methanol or ethanol; and halogenated solvents, such as dichloroethane, may be used. As such bases, inorganic salts, such as potassium carbonate or sodium carbonate, and tertiary amines, such as triethylamine and N,N-diisopropylethylamine, may be used. Preferably, the reaction is suitably conducted in dimethylformamide in the presence of the tertiary amine, such as triethylamine or N,N-diisopropylethylamine at temperature of 50° C. to 100° C. 
     The quinazolinone derivative of the formula (28) can be obtained from the compound (27) using the procedure (a), (b), (c) or (d) employed in the compound (7), if required, or a combination thereof. In this instance, the derivative having R 1  and R 2  as halogen atoms can be synthesized from the compound having hydroxy groups as R 12  and R 22 . The conversion reaction of such a substituent may be conducted according to the general procedure ordinarily employed in the field of organic synthetic chemistry. 
     The quaternary ammonium salt may be synthesized, for example, according to the following steps: ##STR22## wherein ring W, ring E, R 1 , R 2 , Y, G and T have the same meanings as above; A 11  has the same meaning as defined in A 1 , except that the hydrogen atom is excluded; A 22  has the same meaning as defined in A 2 , except that the hydrogen atom is excluded; A 34  has the same meaning as defined in A 3 , except that the hydrogen atom is excluded; R 4  represents a lower alkyl group; L 1  represents a leaving group; and L -   represents a physiologically acceptable anion. 
     The quaternary ammonium salt can be obtained by mixing the quinazolinone derivative of the formula (29) or (32) with an alkylating agent of the formula (30) in a solvent at a temperature between ambient temperature and the boiling point of the solvent. If the reaction proceeds too slowly, heating up to approximately 120° C. in an autoclave is preferred. 
     As the preferable leaving group, chlorine, bromine and iodine atoms are illustrated. Preferable solvents include alcoholic solvents, such as methanol or ethanol, and ether solvents, such as tetrahydrofuran. The anion exchange can be performed by the reaction with an alkali metal salt, for example, sodium salt or potassium salt, containing a desirable anion.

     Testing Example 1 
     To estimate the effect of preventing Ca 2+   overload in myocardial cells, which is one of the targets of the present invention, a preventing effect on ouabain intoxication was measured using the compounds of the invention. The ouabain intoxication is caused by occurrence of Ca 2+  overload when Ca 2+   is entered myocardial cells (see Am. J. Physiol., 1989, 256, C1273-C1276; and Basic Res. Cardiol., 1989, 84, 553-563), and accordingly, it can be said that compounds which prevent ouabain action could prevent Ca 2+   overload in myocardial cells. 
     Testing Method 
     (1) Preparation of the specimens 
     Male guinea pig (Charles River Japan, Inc.) was killed by assaulting the head for cervical dislocation. The heart was dissected out immediately, and the contraction was stopped promptly in a cooled Tyrode solution. The left atria were quickly excised. The left atrial preparations were suspended in an organ bath which had been filled with 25 mL of a Tyrode solution maintained at temperature of 32°±0.3° C. and bubbled with a mixed 95% O 2  +5% CO 2  gas, and the preparation was loaded with a 0.45-0.55 g weight. Using an electronic stimulator (Dia Medical DPS-160B), the preparation was driven electrically by rectangular wave stimulation (stimulation frequency: 2 Hz, pulse duration: 3 msec, 50% more voltage of the threshold) via bipolar silver electrodes. The tension was recorded isometrically on a linearly recording thermostylus oscillograph (Graphtec, WR-3101) via a force-displacement transducer (Toyo Baldwin T 7-30-240) and a carrier-amplifier (Nihon Denki San&#39;ei Type-1829). The preparation was equilibrated for 1 hour after the suspension, and the experiment was started after identifying the good stability of the developed tension. 
     (2) Evaluation of the improving effect of the present compounds against ouabain-induced myocardial dysfunction 
     A compound of the present invention was added thereto so as to 3×10 -6  M, and, after 10 minutes standing, ouabain (Merck) was applied so as to be 10 -6  M. In each case the developed tension was recorded 40 minutes after the ouabain treatment, and the developed and resting tensions were recorded 60 minutes after. The developed and resting tensions are shown as the percent change (developed tension % and resting tension %) at every time period based on 100% of the value just before the ouabain treatment, and determined as P&lt;0.05 being significant in Student&#39;s t test versus the untreated control. Each of the testing compounds was dissolved in purified water so as to be 3×10 -4  M to make a source solution.

     Testing Example 2 
     To estimate the effect of preventing Ca 2+   overload in myocardial cells, which is one of the targets of the present invention, the effect of preventing the influx of Ca 2+   into myocardial cells was investigated in cultured myocardial cells. The evaluation was made basing upon the preventing effect on the increase in cytosolic Ca 2+   concentration due to the substitution with Na +   free solution, according to the method described in the literatures (see Mol. Pharmacol., 1986, 30, 164-170; and Circ. Res., 1992, 70, 804-811). 
     The results in Testing Example 2 are shown in FIGS. 1 and 2. 
     Testing method 
     (1) Culture of myocardial cells 
     According to the procedure described in the literature (see Circ. Res., 1993, 73, 758-770), myocardial cells were isolated from ICR mouse fetus 14-15 days after pregnancy (Charles River Japan, Inc.), and incubated. That is to say, ventricular muscle was removed from the fetus myocardium. After being minced, the myocardial cells were isolated using a 0.25% trypsin solution (Gibco). The myocardial cells were placed on a cover glass coated with fibronectins (Koken), and incubated in an Eagle MEM medium containing 10% fetal calf serum (Gibco) in a CO 2  incubator (Astec BL-160: 37° C., 5% CO 2  +95% air). 
     (2) Estimation of the changes in cytosolic Ca 2+   concentration by the substitution with a Na +   free solution 
     The cells after 4 to 6 day incubation were washed with a solution containing 117.4 mM of NaCl, 5.4 mM of KCl, 0.8 mM of MgCl 2 , 2, 1.8 mM of CaCl 2 , 0.1% of glucose and 5 mM of HEPES (Nakarai Tesque) of pH 7.4 (normal HEPES solution), and then incubated (light shielded, 37° C.) for 20 minutes in a normal HEPES solution containing 20 μM of Fura 2-AM (Dojin) and 0.4% of bovine serum albumin (Sigma), thereby to load Fura 2-AM into the cells. After being washed twice with 2 mL of a normal HEPES solution, the cell-adhered cover glass was installed in a perfusion chamber which can be kept at 37° C., and a normal HEPES solution, through which a highly pure oxygen gas has been passed, was perfused on it. According to the procedure described in the literature (see Biochimica et Biophysica Acta, 1981, 642, 158-172), then, the cover glass was perfused for 5 minutes with a solution containing 28 mM of NaCl, 108 mM of choline-Cl (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, LTD.), 0.1 mM of EGTA (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, LTD.), 0.1% of glucose and 5 mM of HEPES solution of pH 7.4 (28 mM of Na-loaded HEPES solution), thereby to load Na +   to the cells, and then perfused with a solution containing 135 mM of choline-Cl, 1.8 mM of CaCl 2 , 0.1% of glucose and 5mM of HEPES of pH 7.4 (Na free HEPES solution), thereby to increase the cytosolic Ca 2+   concentration. The cytosolic Ca 2+   concentrations were determined by measuring the fluorescence intensity at 500 nm excited at 340 nm and 380 nm using a microscopic dual-wavelength fluorometer (Jasco CAM-230), and calculated from the fluorescence ratio (340 nm/380 nm). Each agent was dissolved in a purified water to make a 1 mM solution, which was then suitably diluted with the perfused solution to a definite concentration, before use. 
     (3) Evaluation of the preventing effect of the present compounds on the increase in cytosolic Ca 2+   concentration 
     The compound of the present invention was applied at the time of both the perfusion with a 28 mM Na-loaded HEPES solution and the perfusion with Na free HEPES solution, and the change in the Fura 2-AM fluorescence ratio in the perfusion with the Na free HEPES solution (changes in cytosolic Ca 2+   concentration) was observed. The preventing effect of the test compound was evaluated by comparing the changes in Fura 2-AM fluorescence ratios in the perfusion with the Na free HEPES solution with respect to the treated and untreated groups.
