Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to new derivatives of indan, to methods of preparing the same, and to their use as medicaments.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PRIOR ART
The inflammation-reducing properties of certain 5-cycloalkyl-indan-1-carboxylic acids are known, as also are the inflammation-reducing and analgesic properties of alkyl or acyl-indan-1-carboxylic acids. Finally, it is also known that certain 6-acyl-indan-2-carboxylic acids have lipidemia-reducing properties.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In accordance with the invention, new 5-cycloalkyl, 5-aroyl and 5-heteroaroyl indan-2-carboxylic acids have been prepared and their remarkable inflammation reducing, analgesic and antipyretic properties have been discovered.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The acids of the present invention are represented by the general formula ##STR2## in which R is an aryl, a heteroaryl or a cycloalkyl group.
R may be a phenyl, a phenyl-lower alkyl or a phenyl-lower alkenyl group, a substituted phenyl group, a furyl group, a thienyl group (which may be substituted, preferably monohalothienyl), a pyridyl group or a cyclohexyl group.
When R is a phenyl group, it may be substituted by one or more halogen atoms, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, acetamido, amino, dialkylamino, nitro, phenyl, alkylsulfonyl, dialkylaminosulfonyl or sulfamido groups.
When R is a substituted thienyl group, there is at least one substituent chosen from the halogen atoms and lower alkyl groups.
Preferably, when R is a phenyl radical, it is substituted by at least one substituent chosen from chlorine and the acetamido, dimethylamino, methylsulfonyl, dimethylsulfonyl and sulfamido radicals, and when R is a substituted thienyl radical, it is substituted by at least one substituent chosen from chlorine and the methyl radical. When R is a furyl radical, it is substituted by a methyl radical.
Specific and non-limiting preferred examples of the acids in accordance with the present invention include 5-(p-dimethylaminobenzoyl)-indan-2-carboxylic acid, 5-(p-methylsulfonylbenzoyl)-indan-2-carboxylic acid, 5-(p-sulfamidobenzoyl)-indan-2-carboxylic acid, 5-(p-dimethylaminosulfonylbenzoyl)-indan-2-carboxylic acid, 5-(4'-acetamido-3'-chlorobenzoyl)-2-carboxylic acid, 5-(3'-methyl-2'-thenoyl)-indan-2-carboxylic acid, 5-(4',5'-dichloro-2'-thenoyl)-indan-2-carboxylic acid, and 5-(5'-methyl-2'-furoyl)-indan-2-carboxylic acid.
Derivatives of these acids in the form of therapeutically acceptable salts or the esters such as the lower aliphatic esters, the amino-esters such as the lower dialkylamino-lower-alkyl esters and the cinnamic esters, and in the form of amides such as the carboxamides, which may be substituted on the nitrogen atom, are therapeutically useful and constitute a part of the invention.
Preferred esters are the lower aliphatic esters, and, particularly when R is thienyl or furyl, the lower dialkylaminoalkyl esters, for example, 2'-(N,N-diethylaminoethyl)5-(2'-thenoyl)-indan-2-carboxylate and 2'-(N,N-diethylaminoethyl)5-(2'-furoyl)-indan-2-carboxylate.
Preferred amides include the lower alkylamino-lower-alkyl amides derived from carboxylic acids represented by general formula I in which R is a phenyl radical which can be substituted by up to two halogen atoms, or a thienyl radical. Specific and non-limiting preferred examples of such carboxamides are the diethylaminocarboxamides such as N-[2'-(N',N'-diethylaminoethyl)]5-benzoyl-indan-2-carboxamide, N-[2'-(N',N'-diethylaminoethyl)]5-(2'-thenoyl)-indan-2-carboxamide and N-[2'-(N',N'-diethylaminoethyl)]5-(2',5'-dichlorobenzoyl)-indan-2-carboxam ide.
Throughout the present specification and claims the term lower alkyl, as well as the term alkyl, unless otherwise specified, refers to C.sub.1 -C.sub.5 alkyl.
The compounds of the present invention may be obtained by a variety of synthetic procedures.
METHOD A
The compounds can be obtained by alkaline hydrolysis of an ester having the general formula IV. The starting material is an ester having the general formula II in which R' is preferably a lower alkyl group ##STR3##
(a) An aroyl halide having the general formula III
in which R is as defined above and X is a halogen, is reacted with the ester of general formula II under Friedel-Crafts conditions.
The reaction may be performed with or without a solvent, but preferably using a suitable solvent such as methylene chloride or carbon disulphide, etc., at a temperature between 0.degree. C. and the boiling point of the solvent and preferably at the reflux temperature of the solvent. Among the Lewis acids which may be used under Friedel-Crafts conditions, anhydrous aluminum chloride is preferred. The reactants employed may be present in stoichiometric quantities or in excess, but preferably there is an excess of the aroyl halide and of aluminum chloride, which excess may be as much as 400%.
(b) An excess of ester II is reacted with an aroyl halide having the general formula III in the presence of a catalytic quantity of zinc oxide. An excess of ester II as great as 100% may be present and the reaction preferably takes place in the absence of a solvent at the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture.
In this way there are obtained the compounds having the general formula IV ##STR4## in which R and R' are as above defined.
To obtain the acids of general formula I it is merely necessary to subject the compounds of general formula IV to hydrolysis under alkaline conditions. The bases which may be used include soda and potash and they are used in an aqueous alcoholic medium, for example, at temperatures between ambient temperature and the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture. The bases are used in stoichiometric proportion or in excess, preferably in excess, and the proportion of alkanol may be up to 100%. The hydrolysis product is then acidified to liberate the acid.
For the compounds wherein R is a phenyl group substituted by a sulfamido or dimethylsulfamido radical, an ester of formula (IV) is the starting point in which R' is a lower alkyl group and R is a phenyl group substituted by an amino radical. This ester is subjected to diazotization by techniques known of themselves, after which the aryldiazonium salt obtained is treated with a solution of sulfur dioxide in acetic acid in the presence of a copper salt, preferably cupric chloride, in order to obtain a compound of formula (IV) in which R' has the same meaning as above and R is a phenyl radical appropriately substituted by a chlorosulfonyl radical.
When the latter is treated with gaseous ammonia or ammonia in a water or lower alkanol solution, the compound of formula (IV) is obtained wherein R is a phenyl radical substituted by a sulfamido radical. If the ammonia is replaced by dimethylamine, a compound with formula (IV) is obtained wherein R is a phenyl radical substituted by a dimethylsulfamido radical.
For the compounds wherein R is a phenyl radical substituted by a dimethylamino radical, a compound of formula (IV) in which R' is a lower alkyl group and R is a phenyl radical substituted by an amino radical is treated with formaldehyde in its monomeric form, either pure or in a water solution, in the presence of hydrogen and of a hydrogenation catalyst, preferably palladium on carbon at an appropriate temperature.
In this way compounds with formula (IV) are obtained for which R is a phenyl group substituted by a dimethylamino radical, R' having the same meaning as before.
Finally, when R is a radical substituted by at least one halogen, these compounds are obtained by treating a compound of formula (IV) in which R is a phenyl, thienyl, or monosubstituted furyl radical and R' has the same meaning as before, with a halogen solution in acetic acid, this solution being either saturated or unsaturated and the reaction taking place at temperatures between ambient temperature and the reflux temperature.
METHOD B
In the first step an appropriately substituted orthoxylene having the general formula V ##STR5## is prepared by either of the procedures (a) or (b) described under Method A.
Using as starting materials compounds having the general formula V there are first obtained compounds having the general formula VI: ##STR6## in which R is as above defined and X is a halogen atom, preferably bromine, either by the direct action of a halogen on a compound of general formula V whilst irradiating with ultra-violet light and preferably at the reflux temperature of the mixture, or, in the case of bromine, by the action of N-bromosuccinimide on a compound of the general formula V in solution in a suitable solvent such as carbon tetrachloride, and in the presence of a catalyst such as an organic peroxide, preferably benzoyl peroxide, or of .alpha.,.alpha.'-azobisisobutyronitrile whilst irradiating with ultra-violet light. The reaction is generally carried out at temperatures between ambient temperature and the boiling point of the solvent and preferably under reflux.
Compounds having the general formula VII ##STR7## in which R is as above defined and R' is a lower alkyl group, are obtained from compounds having the general formula VI by the reaction therewith of a malonic ester having the general formula ##STR8## in which R' is as defined above, in the presence of an alkali metal alkanolate dissolved in a lower alkanol or in ethyl carbonate, preferably in ethyl carbonate, and at temperatures between ambient temperature and the reflux temperature of the solvent and preferably under reflux.
The acids having the general formula VIII, in which R is as above defined ##STR9## are obtained from the esters having the general formula VII by alkaline hydrolysis in an aqueous alcoholic medium at temperatures between ambient temperature and the reflux temperature, and preferably at the latter. The bases which may be used for this hydrolysis are preferably potash or soda, and they are used in proportions which may be between the stoichiometric proportion and a 100% excess and are preferably used in a 100% excess. The proportion of lower alkanol in the aqueous alcohol mixture may be up to 100%.
The compounds having the general formula I are obtained from acids having general formula VIII by subjecting the latter to decarboxylation by a known method, for example, by heating the diacid to its melting point or by heating the diacid to reflux in a hydracid such as concentrated hydrochloric acid.
As an alternative, the esters having general formula VII may be directly decarboxylated to compounds of general formula IV by heating the esters in dimethyl sulphoxide in the presence of water and of sodium chloride at temperatures between 120.degree. C. and the reflux temperature of the solvent.
METHOD C
In this method, a solution of a Grignard reagent is prepared in known manner in a suitable solvent such as diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran, for example, by reacting a metal such as magnesium or lithium, and preferably magnesium, with an appropriately substituted halo-orthoxylene having the general formula: ##STR10## in which X is a halogen atom.
The solution of Grignard reagent is then reacted with an aroyl halide having the general formula III dissolved in a solvent such as diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran at a temperature between 0.degree. C. and the reflux temperature of the solvent used, preferably at the reflux temperature of the solvent.
After acid hydrolysis and the appropriate processing, there is thus obtained a compound having the general formula V which is then submitted to the same series of reactions as described for method B.
The pharmacological inflammation reducing, analgesic and antipyretic activities of the compounds according to the present invention have been demonstrated in animal experimentation. The examples are not limiting.
A--The substances are of low toxicity. For example, the LD 50 value (oral route), determined in mice, of various compounds in accordance with the present invention are shown in column A of Table I.
B--Analgesic activity in the mouse was determined by the method of Koster et al. (Fed. Proc. 1959, Vol. 18, page 412). The active dose 50 (AD.sub.50) value for various compounds in accordance with the present invention was determined, namely, that dose which, when administered orally, reduces by 50% the spasms of pain caused by the intraperitoneal injection of a solution of acetic acid. Results are shown in column B of Table I.
C--The anti-inflammatory activity was demonstrated by the carrageenin-induced edema test of Winter et al. (Proc. Exp. Biol. Med., Volume 111, pages 544-47). The protection afforded, by oral administration of the compound to a rat against edema induced by injecting a suspension of carrageenin under the arch of the foot of the animal was investigated. The AD.sub.30 dose is that which inhibits the edema by 30%. Results are shown in column C of Table I.
D--The protective effect against inflammation resulting from exposure to radiation was determined in albino guinea pigs using the method of Winder et al (Arch. Inv. Pharmacodyn. 1958, Vol. 116, page 261). The AD.sub.50 value was determined for the test substance, namely the amount which, when administered to the animal orally, reduced by 50% the erythema produced by exposing the shaved dorsal skin of the guinea pig to ultra violet radiation. Results are shown in column D of Table I.
E--The anti-inflammatory activity was also determined by the aggregation-inhibiting effect of the compounds in accordance with the present invention, in vitro, on platelets the aggregation of which was induced by collagen, in accordance with the method of Born (Journal of Physiology, 1962, Vol. 162, page 67). It is known that compounds which inhibit the activity or quantity of prostaglandin synthetase will inhibit the formation of prostaglandin PGE.sub.2 and the inflammatory and pyretic effect thereof. Since prostaglandin PGE.sub.2 also causes an increase in platelet aggregation, this test is an effective indication of anti-inflammatory and anti-pyretic activity due to inhibition of prostaglandin synthetase. Column E of Table I shows the minimal active concentration in .gamma./ml of various compounds in accordance with the present invention.
Therapeutic compositions consisting of at least one compound according to the present invention as an active ingredient, together with a solid or liquid pharmaceutical excipient or diluent, may be in the form of tablets, injectable solutions, suppositories or the like.
Therapeutic compositions containing an indan derivative according to the invention as their active ingredient are effective for reducing inflammation, as analgesics and antipyretics in unit doses of from 50 to 500 mg. The dosage may be adjusted to obtain the optimum therapeutic effect.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
The following non-limitative examples illustrate the preparation of the compounds of the present invention.
EXAMPLE NO. 1
Methyl 5-benzoyl-indan-2-carboxylate ##STR11##
In a 250 cm.sup.3 reaction vessel fitted with a stirrer, a cooler, a dropping funnel and a thermometer, is placed 23.2 g (0.173 mole) of anhydrous aluminum chloride in suspension in 40 ml of methylene chloride. 35.3 g (0.252 mole) of benzoyl chloride dissolved in 40 cm.sup.3 of methylene chloride is then slowly added at ambient temperature. The aluminum chloride tends to pass into solution while the temperature gradually rises several degrees. The mixture is cooled to hold the temperature close to 20.degree. C. and a solution of 11.1 g (0.063 mole) of methyl indane-2-carboxylate dissolved in 50 cm.sup.3 of methylene chloride is added. The temperature gradually rises during the course of the addition and the mixture turns a light brown color. The mixture is stirred for one hour at ambient temperature and is then heated to reflux for 3 hours. After cooling, the mixture is poured into acidified iced water and the resulting mixture is extracted with chloroform. The chloroform extract is then washed with water containing caustic soda, then with slightly acidified water and finally with water. It is dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate. The product is then filtered and the filtrate concentrated to an oily residue which is distilled and a fraction is collected boiling at 178.degree.-184.degree. C. at 0.6 to 0.8 torr.
EXAMPLE NO. 2
5-benzoyl-indan-2-carboxylic acid ##STR12##
To a 100 cm.sup.3 reaction vessel equipped with a stirrer and a cooler are successively added: 2.2 g (0.026 mole+50%) of potash dissolved in 40 cm.sup.3 of water and 7.3 g (0.026 mole) of methyl 5-benzoyl-indane-2-carboxylic dissolved in 40 cm.sup.3 of methanol. The mixture is heated at reflux temperature for 1 hour, the methanol evaporated and the mixture diluted with water; the alkaline mixture is then washed with ether and then acidified by the addition of hydrochloric acid. A precipitate forms which is filtered, washed with water and dried. After recrystallization from ethyl acetate the melting point is steady at 140.degree.-142.degree. C. (in a capillary tube).
