Description

CYCLOALKENYL-N-HYDROXYUREAS
Technical Field
This invention relates to novel N-hydroxyurea compounds. The compounds of the present invention inhibit the action of lipoxygenase enzyme and are useful in the treatment or alleviation of inflammatory diseases, allergy and cardiovascular diseases in mammals. This invention also relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds.
Background Art
Arachidonic acid is known to be the biological precursor of several groups of endogenous metabolites, prostaglandins including prostacyclins, thromboxanes and leukotrienes. The first step of the arachidonic acid metabolism is the release of arachidonic acid and related unsaturated fatty acids from membrane phospholipids, via the action of phospholipase A2. Free fatty acids are then metabolized either by cyclooxygenase to produce the prostaglandins and thromboxanes or by lipoxygenase to generate hydroperoxy fatty acids which may be further metabolized to the leukotrienes. Leukotrienes have been implicated in the pathophysiology of inflammatory diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, gout, asthma, ischemia reperfusion injury, psoriasis and inflammatory bowel diseases. Any drug that inhibits lipoxygenase is expected to provide significant new therapy for both acute and chronic inflammatory conditions.
For a review article on lipoxygenase inhibitors, see H. Masamune and
L.S.Melvin, Sr. , Annual Reports in Medicinal Chemistry: 24 (1989) pp71-80 (Academic). More recently, International Patent Publication No. WO 92/09566 discloses a wide variety of N-hydroxyurea and hydroxamic acid compounds as inhibitors of the lipoxygenase enzyme.

The compounds of formula (I) may be prepared by a number of synthetic methods. In one embodiment, compounds of the formula (I) are prepared according to the reaction steps outlined in scheme 1 :
Figure imgf000009_0001
In Scheme 1, the hydroxylamine (II) is treated with a suitable trialkylsilyl isocyanate or lower alkyl isocyanate of the formula ZNCO, in a reaction-inert solvent usually at ambient through to reflux temperature. Preferably the reaction temperature is from 20 to 100 °C. Suitable solvents which do not react with reactants and/or products are, for example, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, methylene chloride or benzene. An alternative procedure employs treatment of (II) with gaseous hydrogen chloride in a reaction-inert solvent such as benzene or toluene and then subsequent treatment with phosgene. Reaction temperatures are usually in the range of ambient temperature through to boiling point of solvent, preferably 25 to 80 °C. The intermediate carbamoyl chloride is not isolated but subjected to (i.e. in situ) reaction with aqueous ammonia or amine ZNH2. As a modification of this procedure (Z=H) the acid addition salt of (II) may be reacted with an equimolar amount of an alkali metal cyanate, such as potassium cyanate, in water. The product of formula (I) thus obtained is isolated by standard methods and purification can be achieved by conventional means, such as recrystallization and chromatography.
Alternatively, the compounds of formula (I) can be directly prepared by the cross coupling reaction of the corresponding aryl halides or triflates with the stannylcycloalkenylhydroxyureas or vice versa in the presence of suitable catalyst such as Pd(PPh3)4, PdCl2(PPh3)2 or the like (for example, J. K. Stille, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Eng., 25, 806 1986). The product of formula (I) thus obtained is isolated by standard methods and purification can be achieved by conventional means, such as recrystallization and chromatography.
The aforementioned hydroxylamine (II) may be prepared by standard synthetic procedures from corresponding carbonyl compound, i.e. ketone or alcohol compound. For example, suitable carbonyl compound is converted to its oxime and then reduced to the requisite hydroxylamine (II) with a suitable reducing agent (for example, see R. F. Borch et al, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 93, 2897, 1971). Reducing agents of choice are, but not limited to, sodium cyanoborohydride and borane-complexes such as borane-pyridine, borane-triethylamine and borane-dimethylsulfide, however triethylsilane in trifluoroacetic acid may also be employed.
The suitable carbonyl compound, i.e. cyclobutenones, cyclopentenones, or cyclohexenones, can be prepared by a number of different approaches (see WO 92/09566). The cyclobutenones may be prepared by the [2+2] cycloaddition of the corresponding ethylenes and dichloroketene followed by reductive dechlorination (for example, see R. L. Danheiser et al., Tetrahedron Lett., 28, 3299, 1987). The cyclopentenones may be prepared by the intramolecular aldol cyclization of 1,4-diketones, readily accessible for the corresponding aldehydes and methyl vinyl ketone by the Stetter reaction (for example, see L. Novak et al., Liebigs Ann. Chem., 509, 1986). The cyclopentenones and the cyclohexenones can be prepared by the addition of the corresponding aryl lithium or aryl magnesium to 3-alkoxy-2-cyclopentenone and 3-alkoxy-2-cyclohexenone, respectively. Alternatively, the cycloalkenones can be prepared by the cross coupling reaction of the corresponding aryl halides or triflates with the cycloalkenylstannanes or vice versa in the presence of suitable catalyst such as Pd(PPh3)4 or PdCl2(PPh3)2 (for example, J. K. Stille, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Eng., 25, 806 1986).
Alternatively, the aforementioned hydroxylamine (II) can easily be prepared by treating the corresponding alcohol with N, O-bis(tert-butyloxycarbonyl)hydroxylamine under Mitsunobu-type reaction conditions followed by acid catalyzed hydrolysis (for example, employing trifluoroacetic acid) of the N,O-protected intermediate product (see Japanese Patent No. 1045344). The requisite alcohol is readily prepared by the 1,2-reduction of the corresponding cycloalkenone using a suitable reducing agent such as sodium borohydride, or sodium borohydride-cerium trichloride.
Alternatively, the N,O-protected intermediate can be prepared by the cross coupling reaction of the corresponding aryl halides or triflates with the N,O-protected stannylcycloalkenyl-hydroxylamines or vice versa in the presence of suitable catalyst such as Pd(PPh3)4 or PdCl2(PPh3)2 (for example, J. K. Stille, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed.
Eng., 25, 806 1986).
The hydroxylamine of formula (II) thus obtained by the abovementioned representative procedures is isolated by standard methods and purification can be achieved by conventional means, such as recrystallization and chromatography.
In another embodiment, compounds of the formula (I) are prepared as illustrated in Scheme 2. R4 is phenyl, and R5 is phenyl or lower alkyl:
Figure imgf000011_0001
In this process, compound of formula (IV) is prepared from the corresponding alcohol and a bis-carboxyhydroxylamine, preferably N,O-bis(phenoxycarbonyl)-hydroxylamine, and subsequently converted to (I) by treatment with ammonia, ammonium hydroxide, or an amine of structure ZΝH2 (A. O. Stewart and D. W. Brooks., J. Org. Chem., 57, 5020, 1992). Suitable reaction solvents for reaction with ammonia, ammonium hydroxide or the amine of formula ZNH2 are, for example, water, methanol, ethanol, tetrahydrofuran, benzene and the like, though reaction may be run in the absence of co-solvent, that is, in requisite amine alone. Reaction temperatures are typically in the range of ambient temperature through to boiling point of solvent. The compounds of formula (IV) can be prepared by the cross coupling reaction of the corresponding aryl halides or triflates with the N,O-protected stannylcycloalkenylhydroxylamines or vice versa in the presence of suitable catalyst such as Pd(PPh3)4, PdCl2(PPh3)2 or the like (for example, J. K. Stille, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Eng., 25, 806 1986). The product of formula (I) thus obtained is isolated by standard methods and purification can be achieved by conventional means, such as recrystallization and chromatography.
The compounds of this invention can exist in stereoisomeric forms by virtue of the presence of one or more chiral centers. The present invention contemplate all such stereoisomers, including enantiomers, diastereomers, and mixtures. The individual isomers of compounds of the formula can be prepared by a number of methods known to those skilled in the art. For instance, they can be prepared by derivatization of a compound of formula (I) with a chiral auxiliary followed by separation of the resulting diastereomeric mixture and removal of the auxiliary group to provide the desired isomer, or by separation employing a chiral stationary phase.
The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the novel compounds of the present invention are readily prepared by contacting said compounds with a stoichiometric amount of, in the case of a non-toxic cation, an appropriate metal hydroxide or alkoxide or amine in either aqueous solution or a suitable organic solvent. In the case of non-toxic acid salt, an appropriate mineral or organic acid in either aqueous solution or a suitable organic solvent can be used. The salt may then be obtained by purification or by evaporation of the solvent. The compounds of the present invention inhibit the activity of lipoxygenase enzyme. This inhibition can be demonstrated in vitro by an assay using heparinized Human Whole Blood (HWB) cells, according to the method described in British Journal of Pharmacology: 99, 113-118 (1990), which determines the effect of said compounds on the metabolism of arachidonic acid. Some of the compounds additionally possess the ability to inhibit the CO enzyme.
The ability of the compounds of the present invention to inhibit lipoxygenase enzyme makes them useful for controlling the symptoms induced by the endogenous metabolites arising from arachidonic acid in a mammalian subject. The compounds are therefore valuable in the prevention and treatment of such disease states in which the accumulation of arachidonic acid metabolites are the causative factor; e.g. allergic bronchial asthma, skin disorders, rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. Thus, the compounds of the present invention and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts are of particular use in the treatment or alleviation of inflammatory diseases in a human subject.
For treatment of the various conditions described above, the compounds of the formula (I) of this invention can be administered to a human subject either alone, or preferably in combination with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or diluents in a pharmaceutical composition according to standard pharmaceutical practice. This composition can consist of about 0.1 to 90%, preferably about 10 to 60%, of the compound of formula (I) or the salt in liquid or solid form of the unit use.
The compounds can be administered to human subjects by various conventional routes of administration including oral or parenteral. When the compounds are administered orally, the dose range will be from about 0.1 to 20 mg/kg of body weight of the subject to be treated per day, preferably from about 0.5 to 15 mg/kg of body weight per day, in single or divided doses. If parenteral administration is desired, then an effective dose will be from about 0.05 to 10 mg/kg of body weight of the human subject to be treated per day. In some instances it may be necessary to use dosages outside these limits, since the dosages will necessarily vary according to the age, weight and response of the individual patient as well as the severity of the patient's symptoms and the potency of the particular compound being administered. For oral administration, the compounds of the invention and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be administered, for example, in the form of tablets, powders, lozenges, syrups or capsules or as an aqueous solution or suspension. In the case of tablets for oral use, carriers which are commonly used include lactose and corn starch. Further lubricating agents such as magnesium stearate are commonly added. In the case of capsules, useful diluents are lactose and dried corn starch. When aqueous suspensions are required for oral use, the active ingredient is combined with emulsifing and suspending agents. If desired, certain sweetning and/or flavoring agents can be added. For intramuscular, intraperitoneal, subcutaneous and intravenous use, sterile solutions of the active ingredient are usually prepared and the pH of the solutions should be suitably adjusted and buffered. For intravenous use, the total concentration of solute should be controlled to make the preparation isotonic.
