DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The method of treating arrhythmias in living animals comprises administering N-(aryloxyalkyl)-N'-(aminoalkyl)ureas and thioureas and derivatives thereof as set forth hereinabove in Formula I and definitions therewith and as pharmaceutical compositions to a living animal body for cardiac arrhythmic effect in an amount effective to control arrhythmia.

The compounds of Formula I wherein X=oxygen are prepared by one of 4 methods, A, B, C or D. Compounds wherein X=sulfur are prepared by method A or D starting with thiophosgene.

Method A--This method is represented by the following equation: ##STR4## wherein; Ar, R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4 and alk.sup.1 and alk.sup.2 are as defined hereinabove and when R.sup.1 is hydrogen, p is zero and the dotted line is a double bond forming an isocyanate; otherwise p is 1 and the dotted line has no significance; with the proviso that when R.sup.2 is not hydrogen, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 must be other than hydrogen, or R.sup.2 is the same as R.sup.3, and R.sup.4 is hydrogen.

Generally, in Method A the aryloxyalkyl amine is reacted with phosgene (or thiophosgene) in a suitable organic solvent plus Proton Sponge.RTM., which is 1,8-bis-(dimethylamino) naphthalene followed by extraction (washing) with dilute sulfuric acid and the organic layer is dried and evaporated to an oil (Intermediate, Formula III) which may, if desired, be isolated as in Example 46 and later used as in Example 3A. The oil is dissolved in tetrahydrofuran and reacted with an amine of Formula IIa. The reaction mixture is stripped to dryness and the residue partitioned between water and a solvent such as methylene chloride. Evaporation of the solvent yields an oil which may or may not crystallize. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts may be prepared by reacting with an appropriate acid. The method is illustrated more specifically in Examples 1, 2, 3 and other examples wherein aryloxyamines are reacted with phosgene or thio phosgene.

Method B--This method is represented by the following equation: ##STR5## wherein Ar, R.sup.1, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, alk.sup.1 and alk.sup.2 are as defined hereinabove. Formula Ib is encompassed by Formula I and R.sup.2 is always hydrogen in this method.

Generally, in Method B an alkyldiamine is reacted first with 1,1'-carbonyldiimidazole in a suitable solvent (e.g., tetrahydrofuran) followed by reaction with a solution of the aryloxy-alkylamine. The reaction mixture is quenched in water and extracted with a suitable solvent (e.g., methylene chloride) or the reaction mixture is evaporated to dryness and the residue partitioned between water and a suitable organic solvent. The organic layer in either case is dried and evaporated to yield an oil, the free base. Pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts may then be provided with a suitable acid. The method is illustrated more fully in Example 18.

Method C--This method is represented by the following equation: ##STR6## wherein Ar, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, alk.sup.1 and alk.sup.2 are as defined hereinabove and R.sup.1 is always hydrogen in this method. Formula Ic is encompassed by Formula I.

Generally, in Method C aryloxyalkyl amine is reacted first with 1,1'-carbonyldiimidazole in a suitable solvent (e.g., tetrahydrofuran) followed by reaction with an alkyldiamine having one free hydrogen. The solvent is removed by evaporation and the residue partitioned between a suitable solvent (e.g., chloroform) and water. The free base is obtained by evaporation and may be converted to a pharmaceutically acceptable salt with a suitable acid. The method is illustrated more fully in Example 33.

Method D--This method is represented by the following equation: ##STR7## wherein; Ar, alk.sup.1, alk.sup.2, R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 have the values assigned above except R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are never hydrogen. Formula Id is encompassed by Formula I. See Example 52 for a demonstration of Method D.

Compounds wherein aryl is phenyl substituted by amino are obtained by catalytic hydrogenation of the corresponding nitro derivative; for example, over palladium-on-charcoal.

Starting compounds of Formula IVa are prepared by reacting aryloxyalkyl halides and the appropriate amine. Starting compounds of Formula IVb are prepared by reacting the aryloxyalkyl halide with potassium phthalimide followed by reaction with hydrazine hydrate. Starting compounds of Formula IIa and IIb are commercially available or may be prepared from the appropriate aminoalkyl chloride and potassium phthalimide followed by reaction with hydrazine hydrate. Preparations 1 to 56 more fully illustrate the preparation of starting compounds. PG,9

Pharmacology

The action of compounds of this invention in correcting cardiac arrhythmias or preventing cardiac arrhythmias is demonstrated by the following procedures:

Ouabain Induced Arrhythmias

Correction of existing cardiac arrhythmias of ventricular origin is carried out on (1) adult mongrel dogs which are under barbiturate anesthesia during the test. A Grass Model 7 polygraph was used for recording femoral arterial blood pressure (Statham P23AC transducer) and the electrocardiogram (Grass 7P4 preamplifier). Ouabain was given intravenously in an initial dose of 40 .mu.g/kg and in a second dose of 20 .mu.g/kg 30 minutes after the first dose and in subsequent doses of 10 .mu.g/kg which were repeated at 15 min. intervals as required for producing cardiac arrhythmias that persisted for at least 15 minutes. When the arrhythmias were established, the test compounds were administered by infusion (Harvard Model 942 Infusion Pump) into a femoral vein at a rate of 1 mg/kg/min. Concentration of compound was adjusted according to the weight of the dog to allow a volume infusion of 1 ml/min. The compound was considered to be active as antiarrhythmic agent if reversion to to sinus rhythm occurred which was maintained for at least 30 min.

Coronary Artery Ligation Induced Arrhythmias

Adult mongrel dogs which are in the conscious state were used for the test and cardiac arrhythmias were induced by prior (22-24 hr) surgical preparation in which blood flow through a coronary artery was occluded by use of a constrictor device as reported by Smith et al, 1973. A Grass Model 79 polygraph was used for recording the electrocardiogram (Grass 7P4 preamplifier).

The test compound was administered by infusion (Howard Model 942 Infusion Pump) into a sapheneous vein to one group of dogs at a rate of 0.5 mg/kg/min. Concentration of compound was adjusted according to the weight of the dog to allow a volume of infusion of 0.5 ml/min. The test compound was administered orally by gavage to another group of dogs at dose levels of 10 through 40 mg/kg. The test compound was prepared in distilled water to give a total volume of 20 ml. Following the administration of the test compound, the heart rate number of ectopic cardiac beats per min. and the percent ectopic beats (Ectopic beats/HR X100) were recorded at 15 min. intervals. The compound was considered active if it abolished the ectopic ventricular frequency and caused a return to normal sinus rhythm within 2 hours of administration.

Injury-Stimulus Induced Arrhythmias

Correction of existing arrhythmias of atrial origin is carried out on adult mongrel dogs which are under barbiturate anesthesia and mechanical respiration (Harvard Respiration Pump Model 6B). During the test a Grass Model 7 polygraph was used for recording femoral arterial blood pressure (Statham P23AC Transducer) and the electrocardiogram (Grass 7p4 preamplifier). The heart was exposed by an incision at the fourth intercostal space space of the right thorax and the right atrium was exposed. A band of right atrial tissue lying betweeen the superior and inferior vena cava was crushed using hemostatic forceps. Atrial arrhythmias were initiated by applying an electrical stimulus of 1 m sec, 20-100 Hz and 3-5 V to the crushed area (Method of Rosenbluth & Garcia-Ramos). When the arrhythmias were established and persisted for at least 15 min., the test compound was administered by infusion (Harvard Model 940 Infusion Pump) into a femoral vein at a rate of 1 mg/kg/min. Concentration of the test compound was adjusted according to the weight of the dog to allow a volume infusion of 1 ml/min. The compound was considered active as an anti-arrhythmic agent if the induced arrhythmia (atrial flutter or atrial fibrilation) was reverted to a normal sinus rhythm and the atrial frequency is diminished in order that a 1:1 relationship of atrial and ventricular was established.

Acetylcholine Induced Arrhythmias

Protection activity against the induction of cardiac arrhythmias of atrial origin were carried out in adult mongrel dogs which were under barbiturate anesthesia and mechanical respiration (Harvard Respiration Pump Model 613). A Grass Model 7 Polygraph was used for recording femoral arterial blood pressure (P23Ac Transducer) and the electrocardiogram. The heart was exposed by an incision at the fourth intercostal space of the right thorax and the right atrium was exposed. An atrial arrhythmia was produced by placing 2 drops of a 10% aqueous solution of acetylcholine directly on the right atrium and stroking the area of application with a cotton applicator (Method of Scherf & Chick). The time period of the arrhythmia was determined by noting the spontaneous return of the sinus rhythm of the electrocardiogram. This procedure was repeated at 15 min. intervals until at least 2 consecutive periods of arrhythmia of comparable duration were obtained.

The test compound was administered intravenously as an aqueous solution at an initial dose of 1 mg active compound per kilogram of body weight. After drug administration, attempts were made up to 60 min. to reproduce the arrhythmia. Higher dosages of the test compound were administered if lower levels failed to prevent the occurrence of the arrhythmia during the 60 min. trial period.

Data obtained for one preferred compound; namely, N-[2-(3,5-dichlorophenoxy)ethyl]-N'-[2-(dimethylamino)ethyl]-N-(1-methylet hyl)urea as represented by its maleate salt of Example 3 are shown in Table 3. This compound exhibited minimal CNS side effects as compared to quinidine and lidocaine. The other compounds of this invention show qualitatively by similar effects in one or more types of arrhythmias as represented by the foregoing tests and generally exhibit less side effects than quinidine or lidocaine.

Pharmaceutical Compositions

The invention further provides pharmaceutical compositions for administration to a living animal body comprising, as active ingredients, at least one of the compounds according to the invention in association with a pharmaceutical carrier or excipient. The compounds are thus presented in a therapeutic composition suitable for oral, rectal, parenteral or intracardial administration. Thus, for example, compositions for oral administration are preferably solids and can take the form of capsules, tablets or coated tablets containing carriers conveniently used in the pharmaceutical art. Suitable tableting excipients include lactose, potato and maize starches, talc, gelatin and stearic and silicic acids, magnesium stearate and polyvinyl pyrrolidone.

For parenteral administration, the carrier or excipient can be a sterile, parenterally acceptable liquid; e.g., water, or a parenterally acceptable oil; e.g., arachis oil, contained in ampoules.

In compositions for rectal administration the carrier can comprise a suppository base; e.g., cocoa butter, or a glyceride.

Advantageously, the compositions are formulated as dosage units, each unit being adapted to supply a fixed dose of active ingredients. Tablets, coated tablets, capsules, ampoules and suppositories are examples of preferred dosage forms according to the invention. It is only necessary that the active ingredient constitute an effective amount; i.e., such that a suitable effective dosage will be obtained consistent with the dosage form employed. The exact individual dosages, as well as daily dosages, will, of course, be determined according to standard medical principles under the direction of a physician or veterinarian. Generally, the pharmacology on aminals suggests the the oral dosage effective to correct arrhythmias will be about 3 times that of the intravenous dosage. The animal data also suggest dosage requirements will be about half that of quinidine for the more active compounds.

Based on the animal data, allowing for variation in species and severity of cardiac arrhythmia unit dosages containing an amount of compound equivalent to about 1 to about 100 mg/kg of body weight, are contemplated. Based on all of the above considerations, a choice in a range of unit oral dosages for humans of about 10 to about 1000 mg is contemplated, preferably about 10 to 600 mg for a more active compound such as Example 3. Daily dosages of about 30 to 2400 mg are contemplated for humans and obviously several unit dosage forms may be administered at about the same time. However, the scope of the invention is not to be limited by these contemplations due to the uncertainty in transpositions discussed above.

Examples of unit dosage compositions are as follows:

Therapeutic compositions having cardiac arrhythmia inhibiting activity in dosage unit form, comprising a pharmaceutical carrier and a cardiac arrhythmia inhibiting amount of a compound of Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof are therefore an embodiment of this invention.

Various modifications and equivalents will be apparent to one skilled in the art and may be made in the compounds, method, and compositions of the present invention without departing from the spirit or scope thereof, and it is therefore to be understood that the invention is to be limited only by the scope of the appended claims.
