DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Compounds of the present invention, with the exception of the compound of formula (X) ##STR4## may be prepared according to the following reaction scheme (all symbols carry the same connotation as in the Summary): ##STR5## Referring to the reaction scheme, initially a diaryl secondary amine is condensed with a 3-halopropionyl halide in a variety of inert solvents. These diaryl secondary amines and 3-halopropionyl halides are conventionally available from known sources or may be prepared by known procedures. For example, diphenylamine, 4-nitrodiphenylamine, and 3-methyldiphenylamine are all available from the Aldrich Chemical Company in Milwaukee, Wisc., as are 3-bromopropionyl chloride and 3-chloropropionyl chloride. Preparation of di-(4-fluorophenyl)amine is described by F. Benington, E. V. Shoop, and R. H. Poirer, J. Org. Chem. 18: 1506 (1953) and by Leonard and Sutton, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 70: 1564 (1948). Preparation of N-phenyl-N-(p-fluorophenyl)amine is described by Lichtenberger and Thermet, Bull. Soc. Chim. France 1951: 318. Preparation of N-(o-fluorophenyl)-N-(p-fluorophenyl)amine is accomplished by an analogous procedure to the one described by Benington et al. in J. Org. Chem. 18: 1506 (1953).
Approximately one to three moles of diaryl secondary amine is condensed with about one to about three moles of 3-halopropionyl halide. The temperature and duration of this condensation may be varied over a wide range, and the reaction may be carried out in the presence or in the absence of a deacidifying agent. Preferably, this reaction is carried out by refluxing in benzene solvent in the absence of a deacidifying agent, with a slight molar excess of 3-halopropionyl halide. Hydrogen halide is evolved during the reaction, which is essentially complete within about three hours. The reaction product is then isolated as the free base by evaporating the remaining solvent. This condensation of a diaryl secondary amine with a 3-halopropionyl halide forms an N,N-diaryl-3-halopropionamide.
This N,N-diaryl-3-halopropionamide is then, in turn, reduced by the standard methods of reducing amides to amines. Reduction may be carried out with diborane in a suitable solvent over a wide range of conditions. The reaction is preferably run with an excess of diborane (up to about 1.5 moles per mole of amine) in the solvent tetrahydrofuran at about 10.degree.-15.degree. C., and is essentially complete within about 16 hours. The product may then be isolated by cautious addition of methanol with subsequent evaporation of solvent. This reduction of the N,N-diaryl-3-halopropionamide forms an N,N-diaryl-3-halopropanamine.
This diaryl-3-halopropanamine is further condensed with a compound of the formula HQ, where Q has the meaning described supra, (except for 2-azabicyclo[2,2,2]oct-2-en) to form a diaryl propanamine of the final structure (formula I): ##STR6## Approximately one to three moles of diaryl-3-halopropanamine is condensed with about one to about three moles of the compound HQ.
Compounds of the formula HQ are generally available from known chemical sources or may be prepared by known procedures in the literature. For example, 1-(4-aryl)-1,3,8-triazaspiro[4,5]decane-4-ones (formula II) are prepared by a procedure analogous to the one described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,155,670 to Janssen, issued Nov. 3, 1964. 4-(2-keto-1-benzimidazolinyl) piperidines (formula III) are generally prepared by a procedure analogous to the one described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,989,707 to Janssen, issued Nov. 2, 1976. Piperazine derivatives (formula VI) and 1,4-dioxa-8-azaspiro[4,5]decanes (formula VIII) are generally available from the Aldrich Chemical Company in Milwaukee, Wisc.
1-[1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-4-pyridyl]benzimidazol-2-ones (formula III) may be prepared in accordance with the procedure disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,161,645 to Janssen, issued Dec. 15, 1964, and at Helv. Chim. Acta 43: 1298 (1960). 4-Piperidinyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-benzimidazole-2-thiones and 1-[1,2,3,6-tetrahydro-4-pyridyl]benzimidazole-2-thiones (formula III) may be prepared in accordance with the procedure disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,963,727 to Ueno et al., issued Jan. 15, 1976. 4-Aryl-4-piperidinols (formula IV) are prepared by a procedure analogous to the one described in British Pat. No. 881,893 to Janssen, published Nov. 8, 1961. Synthesis of 4-aryloxypiperidines (formula V) is described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,260,723 to L'Italien and Campbell, issued July 12, 1966, while 4-aryloxy-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridines may be synthesized by a procedure analogous to the one in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 922,512 (Wise et al.) filed July 10, 1978.
This condensation reaction is usually carried out in a solvent such as an alcohol, an amide, a ketone, an aromatic hydrocarbon, an ether, an ester, and mixtures thereof, in the presence of a deacidifying agent such as an alkali metal carbonate, an alkali metal bicarbonate, an alkali metal hydroxide, an alkali metal alkoxide, a tertiary amine, an excess of HQ and mixtures thereof. Particularly preferred alcohols include methanol, ethanol, 2-propanol, butanol, and mixtures thereof. Particular preferred amides include dimethylformamide, diethylformamide, dimethylacetamide and mixtures thereof. Suitable ketones include methylethyl ketone, methyl isobutyl ketone and mixtures thereof. Suitable aromatic hydrocarbons include benzene, toluene, xylene, and mixtures thereof. Suitable esters include dioxane, tetrahydrofuran, and mixtures thereof. Suitable esters include ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, and mixtures thereof. Suitable alkali metal carbonates include sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate and mixtures thereof, while suitable alkali metal bicarbonates include potassium bicarbonate, sodium bicarbonate and mixtures thereof. Suitable alkali metal hydroxides include sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide and mixtures thereof, while suitable alkali metal alkoxides include sodium methoxide, potassium methoxide and mixtures thereof. Suitable tertiary amines include triethylamine, N,N-dimethylaniline, N,N-diethylaniline, pyridine, and mixtures thereof.
The reaction medium is heated at a temperature in the range from about room temperature to about the boiling point of the particular solvent employed for a period of from about two to about 24 hours. A small quantity of an accelerating agent, such as sodium iodide, may be included in the reaction medium. Preferred reaction conditions may vary with the nature of the compound HQ and the diaryl-3-halopropanamine. The final reaction product may be further processed and purified by conventional means such as recrystallization to obtain the final compound in pure form.
Certain compounds of the present invention may be prepared by alternate processes (all symbols carry the same connotation as in the Summary). For example, a diaryl-3-halopropanamine may be condensed with a 4-phenoxypyridine of the formula ##STR7## where R.sub.6, R.sub.7, and R.sub.8 have the same meanings as listed supra. Preparation of these 4-phenoxypyridines is described at D. E. Butler et al., J. Med. Chem. 14: 75 (1971). Generally, about one to about three moles of diaryl-3-halopropanamine may be condensed with about one to about three moles of appropriate 4-phenoxypyridine in a suitable organic solvent. Suitable solvent may be selected from the group consisting of an alcohol, an amide, a ketone, an aromatic hydrocarbon, an ether, an ester, and mixtures thereof. A catalyst, such as sodium iodide, may be employed in this condensation. The reaction medium is heated to a temperature between about 25.degree. C. and about the reflux temperature of the solvent, for about two to about twenty-four hours, until the condensation is complete. The compound produced by the condensation of a diaryl-3-halopropanamine and a 4-phenoxypyridine is a 4-phenoxy-1-[(diarylamino)propyl]pyridinium halide of the formula ##STR8## where D.sup.- is the associated anion. This 4-phenoxy-1-[(diphenylamino)propyl]pyridinium halide may be partially reduced to the appropriate 3,6-dihydro-4-phenoxy-N,N-diaryl-1(2H)-pyridinepropanamine of the formula V: ##STR9## This partial reduction is accomplished with about 0.67 to about 2.0 molar equivalents of an alkali metal borohydride (e.g., potassium borohydride) in a suitable organic solvent. Suitable organic solvents include the group of lower alkanols such as methanol. Partial reduction is accomplished at a temperature between about 25.degree. C. and about 60.degree. C., for about one to about 16 hours.
This 3,6-dihydro-4-phenoxy-N,N-diphenyl-1(2H)-pyridinepropanamine may be further reduced to form the appropriate N,N-diaryl-4-phenoxy-1-piperidinepropanamine of the formula (V): ##STR10## This further reduction is accomplished by agitation under pressure of about zero to about 200 pounds per square inch of hydrogen, in the presence of a suitable catalyst and solvent. This solvent may be selected from the group consisting of amides, alcohols, ether, esters, ketones and mixtures thereof. Suitable catalysts include the noble metal catalysts, such as platinum and palladium. This reduction is preferably run at a temperature between about 25.degree. C. and about 50.degree. C. until hydrogen uptake has reached about one mole.
The 4-aryloxy-1-[(diarylamino)propyl]pyridinium halides may also be directly reduced to the corresponding N,N-diaryl-4-aryloxy-1-piperidine propanamines by catalytic hydrogenation using a noble metal catalyst such as platinum oxide or a nickel catalyst in a solvent such as ethanol or acetic acid. This direct route of reduction is described at page 46 of Klingsberg, Pyridine and Its Derivatives Part Two, Interscience Publishers, Inc., New York (1961).
The compound of the formula IX ##STR11## is produced by reacting the appropriate 3-[N,N-diarylamino]-1-aminopropane with 2-aza-3-ethoxybicyclo[2,2,2]oct-2-en in a lower alkanol solvent such as ethanol. About one to about three moles of 3-[N,N-diarylamino]-1-aminopropane are reacted with about one to about three moles of 2-aza-3-ethoxybicyclo[2,2,2]oct-2-en with the reaction medium being heated to a temperature between about 25.degree. C. and about 100.degree. C. for about six to about twenty-four hours. The reaction mixture may advantageously be heated in a steam bath so that the solvent distills away. 2-Aza-3-ethoxybicyclo[2,2,2]oct-2-en is produced by the condensation of 3-isoquinuclidone with from about one to about three equivalents of triethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate in a wide range of suitable inert solvent such as methylene chloride. The reaction mixture is stirred at a temperature between about 0.degree. C. and about 60.degree. C. for about six to about twenty four hours.
The 3-[N,N-diarylamino]-1-aminopropane may, in turn, be produced by the reaction of a diaryl-3-halopropanamine with potassium phthalimide, followed by treatment of the reaction product with hydrazine hydrate. About one to about three moles of diaryl-3-halopropanamine may be reacted with about one to about three moles of potassium phthalimide in a suitable organic solvent which is preferably selected from the group of dipolar aprotic solvents such as dimethyl formamide. The reaction medium is heated to a temperature between about 25.degree. C. and about the reflux temperature for about one quarter to about sixteen hours. After isolation of the resulting product, a suitable solvent is added. This solvent is preferably selected from the group of lower alkanols such as methanol. About one to about three moles of hydrazine hydrate is added to the resulting solution. The solution is then heated for about one to about twenty four hours to a temperature between about 25.degree. C. and about the reflux temperature of the particular solvent medium. The resulting product so formed is the appropriate 3-[N,N-diarylamino]-1-aminopropane.
The compound of formula (III) where Z is sulfur: ##STR12## is produced from the corresponding compound of formula (III) where Z is oxygen ##STR13## by refluxing for several hours with a sulfurating agent, in a suitable solvent.
Preferred sulfurating agents are selected from the group consisting of diphosphorous pentasulfide, tetraphosphorous trisulfide, tetraphosphorous heptasulfide, potassium sulfide, zinc sulfide, ammonium hydrosulfide, and mixtures thereof, while the preferred solvent is selected from the group consisting of organic solvents such as benzene, toluene, xylene, tetrahydrofuran, pyridine, and mixtures thereof. Especially preferred sulfurating agent is phosphorous pentasulfide and especially preferred solvent is pyridine. The reaction is heated from about one to about forty hours at a temperature between about room temperature and about the reflux temperature of the particular solvent.
N,N-diaryl-1,4-dioxo-8-azaspiro[4,5]decane-8-propanamine compounds of the present invention (formula VIII), ##STR14## may be hydrolyzed in a mineral acid such as 1 N (one normal) hydrochloric acid, or in a combination of a mineral acid with a lower alkanol solvent such as methanol, to form the appropriate 1-(3[bis(aryl)amino]propyl)-4-piperidone of the formula ##STR15## Hydrolysis is accomplished by heating the reaction mixture to a temperature between about 25.degree. C., up to about the boiling point of the solvent, for about one to about sixteen hours, until evidence of the starting material is no longer visible by thin layer chromatography.
The 1-(3-[bis(aryl)amino]propyl)-4-piperidone may then be treated with a Grignard reagent in an ethereal solvent. Suitable Grignard reagents include appropriately substituted aryl magnesium chlorides, bromides, iodides, and mixtures thereof, and suitable ethereal solvent is selected from the group consisting of ethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane and mixtures thereof. A particularly preferred Grignard reagent is the appropriately substituted phenylmagnesium bromide. A particularly preferred ethereal solvent is ethyl ether. The reaction medium is heated to a temperature between about room temperature and about the boiling point of the solvent for about one-half to about three hours. The Grignard reaction forms the appropriate 1-[3-(diarylamino)propyl]-4-aryl-4-piperidinol of the formula: ##STR16##
The structures of all products and intermediates are supported by appropriate microanalytical and/or spectroscopic (ir, nmr, uv) analyses. Compounds of the present invention may exist in anhydrous, hydrated, or partially hydrated forms. Anhydrous, hydrated, and partially hydrated forms are equivalent for the purpose of the present invention. Compounds of the present invention may also exist in solvated or partially solvated forms which are equivalent to the anhydrous form for purposes of the present invention.
The compounds of this invention may exist in the free base form, or in the form of an acid-addition salt. Non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable salts are formed by the reaction of the free base with any of the number of inorganic or organic acids, including hydrochloric, hydrobromic, hydriodic, sulfuric, nitric, phosphoric, acetic, benzoic, citric, maleic, malic, tartaric, succinic, gluconic, ascorbic, sulphamic, oxalic, pamoic, methane sulfonic, benzene sulfonic, and related acids and mixtures thereof. The free base compounds and their salts may differ in certain physical properties, such as solubility in polar solvents, but are otherwise equivalent for purposes of this invention.
The compounds of this invention are useful because of their valuable pharmacological properties. In general, these compounds possess interesting and significant activity as neuroleptic agents (e.g., for the treatment of schizophrenia). As with other known neuroleptics, the compounds of this invention readily displace .sup.3 H-haloperidol from dopamine receptor binding sights in the .sup.3 H-haloperidol receptor binding assay (HRBA). This screen is a most effective in vitro method for detecting neuroleptic agents and correlates well with human clinical doses. The HRBA screen is described by I. Creese, D. R. Burt and S. H. Snyder, Science 142: 480 (1976) and by B. Seeman, T. Lee, M. Chani-Wong and K. Wong, Nature 261: 717 (1967). A test compound is considered to be an active neuroleptic in this test if it shows approximately 30% of .sup.3 H-haloperidol binding at 100 n moles.
The compounds of the present invention, and/or the non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, may be administered to mammals in pharmaceutical formulations comprising the compounds of the invention, and/or the non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, together with a pharmaceutically acceptable, non-toxic carrier. The compositions of the present invention may be administered parentally in combination with conventional injectable liquid carriers selected from the group consisting of sterile pyrogen-free water, sterile peroxide-free ethyl oleate, dehydrated alcohols, propylene glycol, and mixtures thereof. Suitable pharmaceutical adjuvants for the injecting solutions include stabilizing agents, solubilizing agents, buffers and viscosity regulators. Several of these adjuvants are selected from the group consisting of ethanol, ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid, tartrate buffers, citrate buffers, and high molecular weight polyethylene oxide viscosity regulators. These pharmaceutical formulations may be injected intramuscularly, intraperitoneally, or intravenously.
The compounds of the present invention, and/or the non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, may be administered to mammals orally in combination with conventionally compatible carriers in solid or in liquid form. These oral compositions may contain conventional ingredients such as binding agents selected from the group consisting of syrups, acacia, gelatin, sorbitol, tragacanth, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and mixtures thereof. These oral compositions may include fillers selected from the group consisting of lactose, mannitols, starch, calcium phosphate, sorbitol, methylcellulose, and mixtures thereof. These compositions may also contain lubircants such as magnesium stearate, high-molecular weight polymers such as polyethylene glycol, high-molecular weight fatty acids such as stearic acid or silica, disintegrants such as starch, and wetting agents such as sodium lauryl sulfate.
The oral compositions may take any convenient form such as tablets, capsules, lozenges, aqueous or oily suspensions, emulsions, or even dry products which may be reconstituted with water and/or any other liquid medium before use. The solid or liquid oral forms may contain flavors, sweeteners, preservatives such as alkyl p-hydroxybenzoates. The liquid forms may contain suspending agents such as sorbitol, glucose or other sugar syrups, methyl, hydroxymethyl, carboxymethyl cellulose, and gelatin, emulsifying agents such as lecithin or sorbitan monooleate, and conventional thickening agents. The liquid composition may optionally be encapsulated in capsules, for example gelatin capsules, in an effective amount.
The dosage levels of the compositions of the present invention will depend on the nature and severity of the biological ailment to be considered, as well as on the path of administration. The compositions of the present invention may be administered in dosages generally from about 1 mg/kg to about 1000 mg/kg, typically from about 2 mg/kg to about 500 mg/kg and most typically from about 3 mg/kg to about 200 mg/kg. The age, weight, and health of the patient will have to be taken into account when determining optional dosage levels to be administered.
