Description

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

This invention describes the pharmaceutical compositions and method of treating warmblooded animals for the relief of inflammation and associated pain and fever by the topical administration of .alpha.-phenyl-N-phenylnitrone and its derivatives.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Continuous studies have been carried out during the last decade to develop drugs which would significantly inhibit the development of inflammation and relief of pain as well as the pain and fever associated with it. While much of this effort has been carried out in the steroidal field, there have been compounds developed with are non-steroidal such as the alkanoic acids derived from biphenyl, stilbene, naphthalene and various heteryl rings. While many of these compounds have been found to be effective, they have had the drawback of causing various side effects or being effective only on a specific disorder.

We have unexpectedly found that the .alpha.-phenyl-N-phenylnitrone and its derivatives have pharmacological properties which are useful for the relief and inhibition and prevention of inflammation conditions when administered topically.

We have also found that these compounds are effective in the treatment of inflammation and control of arthritic conditions associated with inflammation.

The compounds of this invention may be prepared by the following general procedures.

Condensation of a phenylhydroxyamine with a benzaldehyde compound in 95% ethanol.

The following reaction equation illustrates this synthesis: ##STR3## where R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5, R.sub.6, R.sub.7, R.sub.8, R.sub.9 and R.sub.10 are as described above.

An alternate method for the production of compounds of Formula I involves utilizing an exchange reaction of phenylhydroxylamines with anils by the following general procedure: ##STR4## In this reaction, the aniline moiety of the anil is replaced by the substituted aniline moiety of the hydroxylamine.

The intermediate compounds of this invention according to this procedure may be prepared by the following general procedures.

Condensation of aniline with a substituted benzaldehyde along the procedures as described by Gillman and Blatt, Organic Synthesis, Coll. Vol. I, 2nd Ed. N. Y. John Wiley and Sons, pages 80-81 results in the desired anil which can then be reacted as above with the desired phenylhydroxyamine.

The following reaction equation illustrates this synthesis: ##STR5## where R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5, R.sub.6, R.sub.7, R.sub.8, R.sub.9 and R.sub.10 are as described above.

An alternate method for the production of certain intermediate compounds involves the distillation of a product from a neat mixture of a benzaldehyde compound and an aniline derivative at an elevated temperature and under a reduced pressure. This gives the desired anil as above.

Preparation of the desired phenylhydroxylamine can be carried out in the customary manner by reduction of the corresponding nitrophenyl or nitrosophenyl compound with zinc dust and ammonium chloride in an ethanol media. When this is also carried out in the presence of a suitable benzaldehyde, then the desired nitrone product may be obtained directly.

In accordance with the present invention, a method of treating inflammation in warmblooded animals is provided which comprises topically administering to the subject in need of such treatment an effective amount of a compound of Formula I.

As used herein, the term "treatment" is meant to include both active treatment and preventative or prophylactic treatment.

The present invention also has for its object compositions for treating conditions requiring anti-inflammatory treatment containing at least one of the compounds of Formula I in an amount of about 0.05-5.0% by weight of the composition, preferably from about 0.1-1.0% by weight. These compositions can be in the form of a solution, a cream, a powder, gel, ointment, salve, lotion or milk. They can also constitute makeup products or dermatological cakes containing the ingredients standard to these types of compositions.

The following Examples will further illustrate the formulations containing the compounds of Formula I but are not to be considered as limiting the scope of this invention.

EXAMPLE C

N-Phenylhydroxylamine

To a well stirred mixture of nitrobenzene (12.3 g.; 0.10 mole) and ammonium chloride (6.1 g. in 100 ml. H.sub.2 O) in 100 ml. of ethanol was added zinc dust (13.1 g.) over a 15 minute period. The reaction mixture was exothermic. After addition of the zinc had been completed, the reaction mixture was allowed to stir for 15 mins.; it was then filtered and the filter cake was washed with hot ethanol. The filtrate was concentrated and the residue extracted into ether which was then washed with saline and dried over sodium sulfate. Removal of the solvent and trituration of the residue with petrolatum ether gave N-phenylhydroxylamine.
