A tetrapeptide hydrazide derivative of chemical structural formula (I) is produced by condensing N-terminal amino acid or a peptide fragment of tetrapeptidehydrazide (I), having a N-terminal amino acid, with the remaining part of the tetrapeptidehydrazide (I). Thus, for example, the following alternative methods may be utilized for this purpose. The methods described in M. Bodansky and M. A. Ondetti: Peptide Synthesis, Interscience, New York, 1966; F. M. Finn and K. Hofman: The Proteins, Vol. 2, ed. by H. Nenrath, R. L. Hill, Academic Press Inc., New York, 1976; or Nobuo Izumiya et al; Peptide Gosei (Peptide Synthesis), Maruzen Inc., 1975, may be utilized. Thus, for example, the azide method, chloride method, acid anhydride method, mixed acid anhydride method, DCC method, active ester method, the method involving the use of Woodward's reagent K, carbodiimidazole method, reduction-oxidation method and DCC/HONB method may be mentioned. There are cases in which the NCA (N-carboxy-anhydride) method (the method involving the use of an intramolecular cyclic carbonyl compound corresponding to the amino acid without use of a protective group) may be utilized.
Prior to the condensation reaction, the carboxyl or/and amino group in starting material which will not be pertinent to the reaction may be previously protected or the carboxyl or and amino groups of starting material which are pertinent to the reaction may be previously activated.
The protective groups for the starting material may be the protective groups mentioned hereinbefore. The carboxyl group of the starting material may also be protected in the form of metal salt (e.g. sodium salt, potassium salt), t-alkylamine salt (e.g. triethylamine salt, N-methylmorpholine salt) or ester (e.g. methyl ester, ethyl ester, benzyl ester, n-nitrobenzyl ester, t-butyl ester, t-amyl ester). As examples of the protective group for the amino group in the starting material, there may be mentioned benzyloxycarbonyl, t-butoxycarbonyl and isobornyloxycarbonyl. The imino group of histidine may be protected by benzyl, tosyl, 2,4-dinitrophenyl, t-butyloxycarbonyl and carbobenzoxy. The hydroxy group of tyrosine may be protected in the ether form by benzyl and t-butyl. The guanidino group of arginine may be protected by nitro, tosyl, carbobenzoxy, isobornyloxycarbonyl and adamantyloxycarbonyl.
As examples of the activated form of the carboxyl group in the starting material, there may be mentioned the corresponding acid anhydride, azide, active ester [i.e. esters with alcohols (e.g. pentachlorophenol, 2,4,5-trichlorophenol, 2,4-dinitrophenol, cyanomethyl alcohol, p-nitrophenol, N-hydroxy-5-norbornene-2,3-dicarboximide, N-hydroxysuccinimide, N-hydroxyphthalimide, N-hydroxybenzotriazole)]. As an example of the activated form of the amino group in the starting material, there may be mentioned the corresponding phosphoric acid amide.
Assuming that the starting materials are A and B, the above combinations of carboxyl and amino groups in starting materials may be as shown in the following table.
The reaction may be carried out in a solvent. This solvent is selected from among the solvents hitherto-known to be suited for peptide synthesis reactions. Thus, for example, there may be mentioned anhydrous or aqueous dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide, pyridine, chloroform, dioxane, dichloromethane and tetrahydrofuran as well as appropriate mixtures of such solvents.
The reaction temperature is selected from the range hitherto-known to be suited for peptide synthesis reactions and may normally range from about -20.degree. C. to about 30.degree. C. The precursor compounds (protected peptides) for the compounds of this invention may be easily produced as well by the solid-phase synthesis procedure.
The protected compound of formula (II) so obtained is subjected to a deprotecting reaction by which the protective groups are removed. While the deprotecting reaction depends on the type of protective group involved, it is preferred for commercial purposes that this reaction is such that it removes all the protective groups in a single step without affecting the peptide bonds. Thus, protective groups are chosen in consideration of this possibility. Table 1 shows some combinations of different types of protective groups and typical deprotecting conditions.
While Table 1 is a listing of some deprotecting reactions such as catalytic reduction involving the use of palladium black, palladium-on-carbon, platinum or the like catalyst and acid hydrolysis with trifluoroacetic acid, dilute hydrochloric acid or methanesulfonic acid, such other processes as reduction with sodium metal in liquid ammonia and acid hydrolysis with the use of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, a solution of hydrogen bromide in glacial acetic acid, hydrogen fluoride or the like may also be mentioned. These reactions are generally conducted at suitable temperatures from -20.degree. C. to 40.degree. C., and in the case of acid hydrolysis, the addition of a cation acceptor such as anisole, phenol or thioanisole is advantageous.
When the compound (I) is desired to have D-methionine sulfoxide as D-.alpha.-amino acid component, the required introduction of oxide may be conducted on any intermediary compound containing methionine residue in the course of peptide synthesis of this invention.
For example, (1) D-methionine sulfoxide is used as the starting material, (2) an intermediate of the compound (III) representable by the formula (III) ##STR4## [wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 have the same meaning as defined above] is oxidized, and then the resulting compound is subjected to peptide synthesis, or (3) the compound (III) is subjected to oxidation.
As examples of the oxidizing agent usable for the oxidation, there may be mentioned hydrogen peroxide, sodium perchloride, sodium perborate, chloramine T, tribromocresol, N-chlorosuccinimide and chloroauric acid.
The amount of the oxidizing agent is usually not less than about 1 equivalent, preferably about 1 to 10 equivalent to the compound (III).
The solvent usable for the reaction is, for example, water, acetic acid, alcohol (e.g. methylalcohol, ethylalcohol), or mixtures thereof.
The reaction temperature is generally -20.degree. C. to 40.degree. C.
Aster completion of the reaction, the peptide derivative (I) so produced is isolated by procedures which are known for the separation of peptide derivatives, i.e. by extraction, distribution, reprecipitation, recrystallization or column chromatography.
The peptide (I) may be obtained in the form of a salt, e.g. the organic acid salt or inorganic acid salt, preferably acetate, citrate, tartrate, hydrochloride or sulfate.
The following is the result of a pharmacological test with the compound (I) of this invention.
Hot-plate test
Ta:CF.sub.1 mice, 4 weeks old and with body weights 18-22 g, were used. When the animal is placed on a hot copper plate maintained at 55.degree..+-.0.5.degree. C., it shows certain responses to the thermal stimulus such as licking the soles of the hind paws or jumping up to escape. The mice showing such responses within 20 seconds after placement on the hot plate were selected into groups of 10 animals. The test drug was injected intravenously or subcutaneously, and after 5, 10, 20, 30, 45 and 60 minutes, their response times were measured and compared with the response times of untreated animals (control groups). To avoid irreversible injuries to the soles, 60 seconds was selected as the maximum test time. The indexes of analgesic action (response prolongation rate, %) were derived by means of the following equation and a t-test was carried out to evaluate the effectiveness of the test drug. ##EQU1##
In the above test, the compound (I) of this invention in doses of no more than 2 mg/kg preferably 1 mg/kg or 200 .mu.g/kg displayed analgesic actions equivalent to a prolongation rate of not less than 40% with a peak occurring at 5 to 60 minutes preferably 5 to 30 or 5 to 20 minutes and some particularly effective kinds of compound (I) displayed marked pain reliefs even in small doses not exceeding 0.5 mg/kg preferably not exceeding 0.1 mg/kg or not exceeding 20 .mu.g/kg.
As mentioned hereinbefore, the compound (I) according to this invention produces a definite analgesic action, as evidenced by results of hot-plate tests in mice, at the dose levels between about 0.05 to 10 mg, preferably about 0.05 mg to about 2 mg/kg, or about 0.2 to 1 mg/kg and in view of its superior efficacy as compared with .beta.-endorphine, is of value as an analgesic drug.
Therefore, the compound (I) and its pharmacologically acceptable acid addition salts can for instance be used as analgesics for the relief of pains inclusive of the pain of advanced-stage cancer and as medicaments for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders such as diarrhea, in mammalian animals such as mouse, rat, rabbit, dog, monkey, human being or be used as a medicaments for the treatment of mental disease.
The compound (I) and its acid addition salts thereof, which are provided by this invention, are extremely low in toxicity and no death is encountered even at 200 mg/kg which is by far beyond the effective dose.
The compound of this invention may be administered in its free form or as an acid addition salt thereof. In the case of free compound (I), the proper dosage is generally in the range of 0.01 to 50 mg/kg, preferably 0.05 mg to 30 mg/kg or 0.1 to 20 mg/kg. The dosage of the acid addition salt of (I) may also range generally from 0.01 to 50 mg/kg, preferably 0.05 mg to 30 mg/kg or 0.1 to 20 mg/kg as free compound (I). The compound and salt according to this invention are mainly administered by routes other than the oral route (e.g. intravenous, subcutaneous, rectal), although they may be orally applied depending on condition. Particularly useful is continuous infusion or instillation in the course of a surgical operation.
Useful dosage forms include injections, suppositories, powders and so forth, although instillable preparations are also useful. Being stable substances, the compounds according to this invention can be stored as dissolved in physiological saline but they may be provided in the form of lyophilized ampoule preparations as compounded with mannitol or sorbitol for extemporaneous dissolution and use.
In the case of intravenous and subcutaneous injections, concentrations are preferably within the range of 1 to 25 mg/ml preferably 10 to 25 mg/ml or 10 to 20 mg/ml in physiological saline.
The present compound (I) also has activities of prolactin or growth hormone releasing activity, inhibitory effect on motor activity of small intestine and modulating of central nervous system.
There are some occasions that the present compound (II), which has a protective group, has a similar activity to those of the present compound (I).
The following examples are given to describe this invention in further detail. It should be understood that the Sephadex LH-20 used for the purification of final products is the product of Pharmacia (Sweden) and that the purity of each compound prepared was assayed by thin-layer chromatography on Kieselgel 60F-254, Merck, using the following solvent systems:
