Description
To the best of our knowledge the compounds of the present invention have not heretofore been described or suggested.
The compounds of the present invention have the general formula ##STR4## wherein R.sub.1 is hydrogen, --CO.sub.2 R.sub.4, R.sub.4 ; R.sub.2 is hydrogen, ##STR5## R.sub.3 is hydrogen, ##STR6## R.sub.4 is alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms; R.sub.5 is alkyl of 1 to 8 carbon atoms; X is halogen, alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, alkoxy of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, CF.sub.3, and OH; m is an integer of 0, 1 or 2; and n is an integer of 1 or 2.
In the above definitions the term "alkyl" refers to a straight or branched chain hydrocarbon containing no unsaturation, e.g. methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, 2-butyl, neopentyl, n-hexyl, etc.; the term "alkoxy" refers to a monovalent substituent which consists of an alkyl group linked through an ether oxygen having its free valence bond from the ether oxygen, e.g. methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, butoxy, pentoxy, etc.; and the term "halogen" refers to a member of the family consisting of fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine.
Preferred compounds of the invention are those where R.sub.1 is ##STR7## and R.sub.3 is R.sub.5.
The compounds of the present invention are prepared in the following manner. The substituents R.sub.1 to R.sub.5, X, and the integers m and n are as defined above unless indicated otherwise.
Utilizing the procedure described by J. R. Piper, C. R. Stringfellow, Jr. and T. P. Johnston, J. Med. Chem. 9, 911 (1966), a 1-aminocyclohexane carboxylate, e.g. an ethylcarboxylate, is prepared having the formula (II) ##STR8## Compound II is reacted with halo ester having the formula ##STR9## where Hal is a halogen, under conventional substitution reaction conditions, typically in the absence of a solvent, and in the presence of a base as an acid scavenger, a temperature of 100.degree. to 120.degree. C. for 72 to 120 hours to form compound IV having the formula ##STR10##
Alternatively, Compound II is reacted with Compound (V) of the formula ##STR11## in a protic solvent, e.g. ethanol, propanol, at a temperature of 78.degree. to 100.degree. C., for 16 to 24 hours to form Compound IV.
Compound IV is then subjected to a condensation or cyclization reaction whereby Compound (IV) is cyclized to form Compound VI. ##STR12##
Typically, this cyclization is carried out in a hydrocarbon solvent, e.g. benzene, toluene, xylene in the presence of a strong base, e.g. NaH, KH, NaOC.sub.2 H.sub.5, at a temperature of 80.degree. to 140.degree. C. for 4 to 24 hours.
Compound (VI) is then subjected to hydrolysis of the ester and subsequent decarboxylation to yield Compound (VII) ##STR13## Such hydrolysis and decarboxylations are typically carried out in refluxing dilute aqueous mineral acids at a temperature of 90.degree. to 120.degree. C. for 4 to 16 hours.
In an alternative procedure, Compound IV is reacted with a halide having the formula Hal-R.sub.3 where Hal is a halogen, and R.sub.3 is other than hydrogen, under conventional substitution reaction conditions, typically in the presence of a halocarbon solvent e.g. CHCl.sub.3, 1,2-dichloroethane, at a temperature of 60.degree. to 85.degree. C. for 16 to 24 hours to form compound VIII ##STR14## where R.sub.3 is other than hydrogen. Compound VIII in turn is cyclized and decarboxylated as described above, to form compound IX ##STR15## where R.sub.3 is other than hydrogen.
Compounds VII or IX can be reacted in a conventional fashion, e.g. via reductive alkylation, with an amine R.sub.1 NH.sub.2 to form a compound of the invention ##STR16## where R.sub.1 is other than hydrogen, a reducing agent such as hydrogen with platinum or Raney nickel, sodium, sodium amalgam, metal hydrides in alcohol, dimethylamine borane etc., is employed to obtain compound X, where R.sub.1 is other than hydrogen.
In a preferred method, compound VII or IX is reacted with a secondary amine, R.sub.1 NH.sub.2, preferably methylamine, in the presence of a Lewis acid, preferably titanium tetrachloride, in a hydrocarbon solvent, e.g. benzene, toluene, etc. in an inert atmosphere at 80.degree. to 110.degree. for 3 to 16 hours to form an imine ##STR17## The subsequent intermediate imine XI is reduced by a metal hydride, sodium borohydride being preferred, in a protic solvent e.g. ethanol, isopropanol etc., at 25.degree. to 82.degree. C. for 18 to 24 hours to form Compound (I), where R.sub.1 is alkyl.
Alternatively, Compound (I) of the invention can be obtained by reaction of compounds VII or IX via the conventional Leuckart-Wallach reaction with an amine having the formula ##STR18##
In a preferred method, Compound VII or IX is reacted with sodium cyanoborohydride (NaBH.sub.3 CN) and ammonium acetate in a protic solvent, e.g. methanol, isopropanol, etc. at a temperature of 64.degree. to 82.degree. C. for 16 to 48 hours to form Compound XI (Compound I where R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are hydrogen) ##STR19##
Compound X is typically reacted with a halide of the formula ##STR20## where Hal is a halogen, to form a compound of the invention ##STR21## This displacement reaction is conventional and is carried out in a halocarbon solvent, e.g., CHCl.sub.3, 1,2-dichloroethane, etc. at a temperature of 60.degree. to 85.degree. C. for 3 to 24 hours. It is also carried out under conventional Schotten-Baumann reaction conditions.
Compound XI is typically reacted in a conventional manner under displacement reaction conditions whereby it is reacted with (1) Hal-R.sub.1 where Hal is a halogen and R.sub.1 is other than hydrogen or (2) Hal-R.sub.2 where Hal is a halogen and R.sub.2 is other than hydrogen to form a compound (XIV) of the invention ##STR22## Where R.sub.1 or R.sub.2 is hydrogen, the resultant Compound XIV can be further reacted with Hal-R.sub.1 or Hal-R.sub.2, respectively, to form compound XV of the invention where R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are other than hydrogen ##STR23## where R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are not hydrogen.
The compounds (I) of the present invention are useful as analgesics. The procedure employed here for evaluating the analgesic activities of the compounds I is a modification of Siegmund et al. Proc. Soc. Exptl. Biol. Med., 95 729 (1957). Thus, 12.5 mg of phenylquinone (phenyl-p-benzoquinone) is dissolved in 5 ml of 95% ethanol and diluted to 100 ml with distilled water and administered to mice (10 ml/kg, intraperitoneally [i.p.]). This produces a characteristic "writhe" which is defined as an inward rotation of one or more feet with twisting and turning of the trunk, drawing in of the abdominal wall, lordosis and arching of the back.
A total of 28 male, CD-1 mice (18 to 30 grams) are employed for a time response. Animals receive food and water ad libitum. Drugs to be tested are prepared with distilled water, and if insoluble, one drop of a suitable surfactant is added.
Twenty animals (5/group) are administered the drug subcutaneously (sc) 15, 30, 45 and 60 minutes prior to phenylquinone injection. Control animals (2/group) receive an equal amount of vehicle. After the administration of phenylquinone, the mice are placed separately into one-liter beakers and 5 minutes are allowed to elapse. The mice are then observed for a period of 10 minutes and the number of writhes are recorded for each animal. The formula for computing percent inhibition is: ##EQU1##
The time period with the greatest percent of inhibition is considered the peak time.
A dose range is run in the same fashion as a time response except ten animals per group are tested at the peak time of drug activity. Fifty animals, four drug groups, and a vehicle control are employed. Animals are dosed and tested in a randomized manner. An estimated ED.sub.50 is calculated by a computer linear regression analysis.
The analgesic activities of various compounds of the invention are presented in Table I. The data presented therein were determined in accordance with the above described procedures.
The above compounds of the invention compare favorably with the standard analgesics morphine sulfate and propoxyphine which are also listed above and tested as described.
Effective quantities of the compounds of the invention may be administered to a patient by any one of various methods, for example, orally as in capsules or tablets, parenterally in the form of sterile solutions or suspensions, and in some cases intraveneously in the form of sterile solutions. The free base final products, while effective themselves, may be formulated and administered in the form of their pharmaceutically acceptable addition salts for purposes of stability, convenience of crystallization, increased solubility and the like.
Acids useful for preparing the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of the invention include inorganic acids such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, nitric, phosphoric and perchloric acids, as well as organic acids such as tartaric, citric, acetic, succinic, maleic, fumaric and oxalic acids.
The active compounds of the present invention may be orally administered, for example, with an inert diluent or with an edible carrier, or they may be enclosed in gelatin capsules, or they may be compressed into tablets. For the purpose of oral therapeutic administration, the active compounds of the invention may be incorporated with excipients and used in the form of tablets, troches, capsules, elixirs, suspensions, syrups, wafers, chewing gum and the like. The preparation should contain at least 0.5% of active compound, but may be varied depending upon the particular form and may conveniently be between 4% to about 70% of the weight of the unit. The amount of active compound in such compositions is such that a suitable dosage will be obtained. Preferred compositions and preparations according to the present invention are prepared so that an oral dosage unit form contains 1.0 to 100 milligrams of active compound.
The tablets, pills, capsules, troches, and the like may also contain the following ingredients: a binder such as microcrystalline cellulose, gum tragacanth or gelatin; an excipient such as starch or lactose, a disintegrating agent such as alginic acid, Primogel, corn starch and the like; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate or Sterotex; a glidant such as colloidal silicon dioxide; and a sweetening agent such as sucrose or saccharin; and a flavoring agent such as peppermint, methyl salicylate, or orange flavoring. When the dosage unit is a capsule, it may contain, in addition to materials of the above type, a liquid carrier such as a fatty oil. Other dosage unit forms may contain other various materials which modify the physical form of the dosage unit, for example, as coatings. Thus, tablets or pills may be coated with sugar, shellac or other enteric coating agents. A syrup may contain, in addition to the active compounds, sucrose, as a sweetening agent and certain preservatives, dyes and colorings and flavors. Materials used in preparing these various compositions should be pharmaceutically pure and non-toxic in the amounts used.
For the purpose of parenteral therapeutic administration, the active compounds of the invention may be incorporated into a solution or suspension. These preparations should contain a pharmaceutically effective amount, i.e., at least 0.1% of active compound, but may be varied to be between 0.5 and about 30% of the weight thereof. The amount of active compound in such compositions is such that a suitable dosage will be obtained. Preferred compositions and preparations according to the present invention are prepared so that a parenteral dosage unit contains between 0.5 to 100 milligrams of active compound.
The solutions or suspensions may also include the following components: a sterile diluent such as water for injection, saline solution, fixed oils, polyethylene glycols, glycerine, propylene glycol or other synthetic solvents; antibacterial agents such as benzyl alcohol or methyl parabens; antioxidants such as ascorbic acid or sodium bisulfite; chelating agents such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid; buffers such as acetates, citrates or phosphates and agents for the adjustment of tonicity such as sodium chloride or dextrose. The parenteral preparation can be enclosed in ampules, disposable syringes or suitable dose vials made of glass or plastic.
The invention is illustrated by the following examples wherein unless indicated otherwise, the temperature indicated is in degrees Centigrade.
