The products of Formula I and the preferred subgroups thereof can be produced by the methods depicted in the following Reaction Scheme wherein R, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, X, p and n are as defined above.
As will be evident to those skilled in the art and as demonstrated in the Examples, reactive groups not involved in the condensations, such as amino, carboxy, hydroxy, etc., may be protected by methods standard in peptide chemistry prior to the coupling reactions and subsequently deprotected to obtain the desired products. ##STR2##
With reference to the Reaction Scheme, the .alpha.-t-BOC derivatives of S-(aminoethyl)cysteine and of S-(aminoethyl)homocysteine (II) are liberated from their corresponding S-(carbobenzyloxyaminoethyl) precursors using sodium and liquid ammonia. They are then cyclized to thialactams via carboxyl activating reagents such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide in the presence of N-hydroxysuccinimide. N-Alkylation of these lactams with .alpha.-haloesters or .alpha.-haloacids in the presence of a base such as sodium hydride affords, after chromatography, the lactam intermediate IV. The tertiary butoxycarbonyl group can be removed from compound IV under standard acid conditions to afford the aminothialactam derivative V. Reductive condensation of the latter with .alpha.-ketoacids or .alpha.-ketoesters in the presence of sodium cyanoborohydride yields compounds of Formula I. These, in turn, can be converted to sulfoxides by oxidation with a peracid such as m-chloroperbenzoic acid. By a suitable choice of R groups, compounds of Formula I as free diacids, monoesters and diesters are formed. Protecting groups of optional amino functions in the R.sub.1 group may be utilized and removed by methods which are standard in peptide chemistry.
The reductive alkylation of .alpha.-ketoacids or .alpha.-ketoesters with compound V generates a new assymmetric center which is preferred in the S configuration. When R.sub.2 is lower alkyl, an additional asymmetric center is present in compounds of Formula I. The preferred conformation of this ester is S although the R conformation is also consistent with good activity. The preferred conformation at the carbon bearing the alkylated amino function in Formula I is that corresponding to a natural L-amino acid. Mixtures of diastereomers of these compounds have activity and may be utilized in the treatment of hypertension. Alternatively, the preferred diastereomer may be isolated by liquid chromatography.
The .alpha.-ketocarboxylate derivatives used in the reductive alkylation can include such compounds as, for example ethyl 2-oxo-4-phenylbutyrate, ethyl 4-p-chlorophenyl-2-oxobutyrate, ethyl 4-(imidazolyl)-2-oxobutyrate, ethyl 2-oxo-4-(2-thienyl)-butyrate, ethyl 2-oxo-4-(2-napthyl)-butyrate, ethyl 4-p-hydroxyphenyl-2-oxobutyrate, ethyl phenoxypyruvate, ethyl 2-oxo-5-phenylpentanoate, ethyl 4-p-methoxyphenyl-2-oxobutyrate, ethyl 5-methyl-2-oxohexanoate, benzyl 2-oxo-6-phthalimidohexanoate, and the like, and their respective free acids.
The starting materials which are required for the above processes herein described are known in the literature or can be made by known methods from known starting materials.
The compounds of this invention form salts with various inorganic and organic acids and bases which are also within the scope of the invention. Such salts include ammonium salts, alkali metal salts like sodium and potassium salts, alkaline earth metal salts like the calcium and magnesium salts, salts with organic bases e.g., dicyclohexylamine salts, N-methyl-D-glucamine, salts with amino acids like arginine, lysine and the like. Also salts with organic and inorganic acids may be prepared, e.g., HCl, HBr, H.sub.2 SO.sub.4, H.sub.3 PO.sub.4, methanesulfonic, toluensulfonic, maleic, fumaric, camphorsulfonic. The non-toxic physiologically acceptable salts are preferred, although other salts are also useful, e.g., in isolating or purifying the product.
The salts may be formed by conventional means as by reacting the free acid or free base forms of the product with one or more equivalents of the appropriate base or acid in a solvent or medium in which the salt is insoluble, or in a solvent such as water which is then removed in vacuo or by freeze-drying or by exchanging the cations of an existing salt for another cation on a suitable ion exchange resin.
The compounds of this invention inhibit angiotensin converting enzyme and thus block conversion of the decapeptide angiotensin I to angiotensin II. Angiotensin II is a potent pressor substance. Thus blood-pressure lowering can result from inhibition of its biosynthesis especially in animals and humans whose hypertension is angiotensin II related. Furthermore, converting enzyme degrades the vasodepressor substance, bradykinin. Therefore, inhibitors of angiotensin converting enzyme may lower blood-pressure also by potentiation of bradykinin. Although the relative importance of these and other possible mechanisms remains to be established, inhibitors of angiotensin converting enzyme are effective antihypertensive agents in a variety of animal models and are useful clinically, for example, in many human patients with renovascular, malignant and essential hypertension. See, for example, D. W. Cushman et al., Biochemistry 16, 5484 (1977).
The evaluation of converting enzyme inhibitors is guided by in vitro enzyme inhibition assays. For example, a useful method is that of Y. Piquilloud, A, Reinharz and M. Roth, Biochem. Biophys. Acta, 206, 136 (1970) in which the hydrolysis of carbobenzyloxyphenylalanylhistidinylleucine is measured. In vivo evaluations may be made, for example, in normotensive rats challenged with angiotensin I by the technique of J. R. Weeks and J. A. Jones, Proc. Soc. Exp. Biol. Med., 104, 646 (1960) or in a high renin rat model such as that of S. Koletsky et al., Proc. Soc. Exp. Biol. Med. 125, 96 (1967).
Thus, the compounds of this invention are useful as antihypertensives in treating hypertensive mammals, including humans, and they can be utilized to achieve the reduction of blood pressure by formulating in compositions such as tablets, capsules or elixirs for oral administration or in sterile solutions or suspensions for parenteral administration. The compounds of this invention can be administered to patients in need of such treatment in a dosage range of 2 to 200 mg per patient generally given several times, thus giving a total daily dose of from 2 to 800 mg per day. The dose will vary depending on severity of disease, weight of patient and other factors which a person skilled in the art will recognize.
Also, the compounds of this invention may be given in combination with other diuretics or antihypertensives. Typically these are combinations whose individual per day dosages range from one-fifth of the minimally recommended clinical dosages to the maximum recommended levels for the entities when they are given singly. To illustrate these combinations, one of the antihypertensives of this invention effective clinically in the range 5-200 milligrams per day can be effectively combined at levels ranging from 1-200 milligrams per day with the following antihypertensives and diuretics in dose ranges per day as indicated:
hydrochlorothiazide (10-100 mg), timolol (5-60 mg), methyldopa (65-2000 mg), the pivaloyloxyethyl ester of methyldopa (30-1000 mg),indacrinone and variable ratios of its enantiomers (25-150 mg), and (+)-4-{3-{[2-(1-hydroxycyclohexyl)ethyl]-4-oxo-2-thiazolidinyl}propyl}benz oic acid (10-100 mg).
In addition, the triple drug combinations of hydrochlorothiazide (10-100 mg) plus amiloride (5-20 mg) plus converting enzyme inhibitor of this invention (1-200 mg) or hydrochlorothiazide (10-100 mg) plus timolol (5-60 mg) plus the converting enzyme inhibitor of this invention (1-200 mg) are effective combinations to control blood pressure in hypertensive patients.
The above dose ranges will be adjusted to a unit basis as necessary to permit divided daily dosage.
Typically, the combinations shown above are formulated into pharmaceutical compositions as discussed below.
About 1 to 100 mg of a compound or mixture of compounds of Formula I or physiologically acceptable salts thereof is compounded with a physiologically acceptable vehicle, carrier, excipient, binder, preservative, stabilizer, flavor, etc., in a unit dosage form as called for by accepted pharmaceutical practice. The amount of active substance in these compositions or preparations is such that a suitable dosage in the range indicated is obtained.
Illustrative of the adjuvants which may be incorporated in tablets, capsules and the like are the following: a binder such as gum tragacanth, acacia, corn starch or gelatin; an excipient such as microcrystalline cellulose; a disintegrating agent such as corn starch, pregelatinized starch, alginic acid and the like; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate; a sweetening agent such as sucrose, lactose or saccharin; a flavoring agent such as peppermint, oil of wintergreen or cherry. When the dosage unit form is a capsule, it may contain, in addition to materials of the above type, a liquid carrier such as fatty oil. Various other materials may be present as coatings or to otherwise modify the physical form of the dosage unit. For instance, tablets may be coated with shellac, sugar or both. A syrup or elixir may contain the active compound, sucrose as a sweetening agent, methyl and propyl parabens as preservatives, a dye and a flavoring such as cherry or orange flavor.
Sterile compositions for injection can be formulated according to conventional pharmaceutical practice by dissolving or suspending the active substance in a vehicle such as water for injection, a naturally occurring vegetable oil like sesame oil, coconut oil, peanut oil, cottonseed oil, etc. or a synthetic fatty vehicle like ethyl oleate or the like. Buffers, preservatives, antioxidants and the like can be incorporated as required.
