The reduction is carried out in a suitable solvent such as diethylether, tetrahydrofuran, glycoldimethylether or dioxan with a metal hydride, e.g. with a complex metal hydride such as lithium aluminium hydride, at temperatures of between 0.degree. and 100.degree. C., but preferably at temperatures of between 20.degree. and 80.degree. C.
In order to prepare compounds of general formula I wherein one of the groups R.sub.3 or R.sub.4 represents one of the acyl groups mentioned hereinbefore, it is particularly advantageous to carry out the reaction with lithium aluminium hydride at temperatures of between 0.degree. and 30.degree. C., preferably at ambient temperature.
(e) In order to prepare compounds of general formula I wherein at least one of the groups R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 or R.sub.4 represents one of the alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl or phenylalkyl groups mentioned hereinbefore:
Reacting a compound of general formula ##STR14## wherein
at least one of the groups R.sub.1 "', R.sub.2 "', R.sub.3 "' or R.sub.4 "' represents a hydrogen atom and the other groups R.sub.1 "', R.sub.2 "', R.sub.3 "' or R.sub.4 "' have the meanings given for R.sub.1 to R.sub.4 hereinbefore,
with a compound of general formula
wherein R.sub.5 represents one of the alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkenyl, alkinyl or phenylalkyl groups mentioned for R.sub.1 to R.sub.4 hereinbefore and Z represents a nucleophilically exchangeable group such as a halogen atom or a sulfonic acid group, e.g. a chlorine, bromine or iodine atom, a methoxysulfonyloxy or p-toluenesulfonyloxy group, or Z together with an adjacent hydrogen of the group R.sub.5 represents an oxygen.

C., but preferably at temperatures of between 0.degree. and 30.degree. C. However, the reaction may also be carried out without a solvent.
Alkylation of the nitrogen atom may also be effected using formaldehyde/formic acid at elevated temperatures, e.g. at the boiling temperature of the reaction mixture, or with a corresponding carbonyl compound and a complex metal hydride such as sodiumborohydride or sodiumcyanoborohydride in a solvent such as water/methanol, ethanol, ethanol/water, dimethylformamide or tetrahydrofuran at temperatures of between 0.degree. and 50.degree. C., but preferably at ambient temperature.
If according to the invention a compound of general formula I is obtained wherein at least one of the groups R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 or R.sub.4 represents a hydrogen atom, this may be converted by corresponding acylation into a corresponding compound of general formula I wherein at least one of the groups R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 or R.sub.4 represents one of the acyl groups mentioned herein before.
The subsequent acylation is appropriately carried out in a solvent such as methylene chloride, chloroform, carbontetrachloride, ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxan, glacial acetic acid, benzene, toluene, acetonitrile or dimethylformamide, optionally in the presence of an acid-activating agent or a dehydrating agent, e.g. in the presence of ethyl chloroformate, thionylchloride, N,N-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, N,N'-dicyclohexyl carbodiimide/N-hydroxysuccinimide, N,N'-carbonyldiimidazole or N,N'-thionyldiimidazole or triphenylphosphine/carbontetrachloride, or an agent which activates the amino group, e.g. phosphorus trichloride, and optionally in the presence of an inorganic base such as sodium carbonate or a tertiary organic base such as triethylamine or pyridine, which may simultaneously be used as solvent, at temperatures of between -25.degree. C. and 250.degree. C., but preferably at temperature of between -10.degree. C. and the boiling temperature of the solvent used. The reaction may also be carried out without a solvent and furthermore any water formed during the reaction may be removed by azeotropic distillation, e.g. by heating with toluene using a water separator, or by adding a drying agent such as magnesium sulphate or molecular sieve.
The compounds of general formula I have at least one chiral center and can, therefore, exist in the form of various stereoisomers. The invention embraces all of these stereoisomers and mixtures thereof. Mixtures of these stereoisomers can be resolved by conventional methods, e.g. by column chromatography on a chiral phase, by fractional crystallisation of the diastereomeric salts or by column chromatography of their conjugates with optically active auxiliary acids such as tartaric acid, O,O-dibenzoyl-tartaric acid, camphor acid, camphorsulfonic acid or .alpha.-methoxy-phenylacetic acid.
The compounds may also be converted into the acid addition salts thereof, particularly the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts with inorganic or organic acids. Suitable acids for this include, for example, hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, phosphoric, lactic, citric, tartaric, succinic, maleic or fumaric acid.
The compounds of general formulae II to IX used as starting materials are known from the literature in some cases or may be obtained using methods known from the literature.
Thus, for example, a compound of general formula II is obtained by halogenation of the corresponding cyclohexanone, which is in turn prepared by oxidation of the corresponding cyclohexanol and optional subsequent alkylation and/or acylation.
The compounds of general formulae VI, VII and VIII used as starting materials are obtained by condensation of a corresponding .alpha.-bromo-cyclohexanone with a correponding thiourea.
As already mentioned hereinbefore, the compounds of general formula I wherein at least one of the groups R.sub.1 to R.sub.4 represents one of the acyl groups mentioned above are valuable intermediate products for preparing the compounds of general formula I wherein R.sub.1 to R.sub.4 have the meanings given to R.sub.1 to R.sub.4 hereinbefore, with the exception of the acyl groups referred to hereinbefore. These compounds and the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof have valuable pharmacological properties, particularly a hypotensive effect on blood pressure, a heart rate lowering effect and an effect on the central nervous system, particularly a stimulant effect on the dopamine receptors.
For example, therefore, in order to investigate the effect on presynaptic dopamine receptors, the following compounds
A=2-amino-6-dimethylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-benzthiazol-dihydrochloride,
B=2-amino-6-pyrrolidino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-benzthiazol-dihydrochloride,
C=2-amino-6-n-propylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-benzthiazol-dihydrochloride,
D=2-allylamino-6-dimethylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-benzthiazol-dihydrochlori de,
E=6-[N-allyl-N-(4-chloro-benzyl)-amino]-2-amino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-benzthia zol-dihydrochloride and
F=2-amino-6-diallylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-benzthiazol-dihydrochloride
were tested first for their effect on the exploratory activity of mice and then, after any effect on postsynaptic dopamine receptors had been clarified (motility in animals pretreated with reserpine), the effect on dopamine turnover and dopamine synthesis was determined, as follows:
1. Inhibition of the exploratory activity
The activity was measured in observation cages fitted with an infra-red light barrier. The frequency of interruption of the light beam by a group of 5 mice within 5 minutes. Groups of 5 animals are given the test substance, unless otherwise specified, in a dosage of 10 mg/kg by subcutaneous injection. One hour later the animals are moved into the observation cages where their exploratory activity over a period of 5 minutes is immediately measured. In parallel or alternately with groups treated with test substance, control groups treated with common salt are investigated (0.9% solution; 0.1 ml/10 g of body weight by subcutaneous route).
The results are assembled in the following table:
2. Determining the inhibition of dopamine turnover
The inhibition of dopamine turnover was measured in mice. In animals treated with .alpha.-methylparatyrosine (AMPT) (250 mg/kg by intraperitoneal route) 15 minutes into the experiment, the dopamine concentration throughout the brain decreases as the test progresses. By administering substances which act on autoreceptors, the dopamine reduction (compared with control animals treated with common salt solution) can be prevented.
Test substances are administered at time 0 of the experiment in a dosage of 5 mg/kg s.c., unless otherwise stated. Four hours and 15 minutes into the experiment the animals are killed and the brains are subjected to dopamine determination using high pressure liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection. This determines the percentage inhibition, caused by the test substance, of the dopamine reduction induced by AMPT.
3. Determining the inhibiton of dopamine synthesis
For this purpose, 5 animals are given the test substance in a dosage of 10 mg/kg s.c., unless otherwise stated. After 5 minutes, 750 mg/kg of .gamma.-butyrolactone are administered by intraperitoneal route in order to rule out the effect of postsynaptic feed back loops on the rate of dopamine synthesis by blocking the presynaptic impulse line. This results in a considerable increase in the synthesis of DOPA or dopamine. In order to inhibit the decarboxylation of DOPA, 200 mg/kg of 3-hydroxybenzyl-hydrazin-hydrochloride are administered by intraperitoneal route after a further 5 minutes. Forty minutes after administration of the substance the animals are killed and the corpus striatum is prepared. The DOPA content is measured by HPLC with electrochemical detection (standard: dihydroxybenzylamine).
The percentage inhibition, produced by the test substance, of the DOPA accumulation stimulated by .gamma.-butyrolactone compared with the controlled animals treated with 0.9% common salt solution is determined.
The results of this experiment are shown in the following table:
4. Determining the anti-Parkinsonism activity or the activity against Parkinson's disease
The discovery of the neurotoxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) (Langston et al., Science 219, 979 (1983)) provided an animal model for Parkinson's disease.
The irreversible neurological syndrome triggered by MPTP in man and in monkeys largely resembles the idiopathic Parkinson's disease in its clinical, pathological, biochemical and pharmacological characteristics (Markey et al., Nature 311, 464 (1984)). The reason for this convincing similarity is the fact that MPTP selectively destroys the small group of dopaminergic nerve cells in the substantia nigra of the brain which are also destroyed by degenerative processes in naturally occurring Parkinson's disease. There is even some speculation that the cause of idiopathic Parkinson's disease is MPTP or a similar compound forming in the organism (Snyder, S. H., Nature 311, 514 (1984)). Possibly as a result of the specific metabolism of MPTP, the clinical impression of the MPTP-Parkinson picture has hitherto been demonstrated only in monkeys and man.
The MPTP model realised in Rhesus monkeys is therefore exceptionally suitable for testing the activity of anti-Parkinson's disease drugs. Seven Rhesus monkeys were given MPTP (for 3 days, 1.times.0.15 mg/kg i.m. daily, 3 days' break, then 3 days 1.times.0.30-0.40 mg/kg daily) and showed the following symptoms; the animals were akinetic and not capable of taking water or food. They showed a typical bowed posture; occasionally, cataleptic states occured. The extremities showed a rigor which was interspersed by clonic convulsions on passive movement. As a rule, voluntary movements of the rump and the extremities could not be triggered even by very powerful and painful stimulation.
After intramuscular administration of compound C (10-100 .mu.g/kg) voluntary movements first occured after a time interval of 5 to 10 minutes, which were followed in the subsequent 10 to 30 minutes by a gradual, extensive normalisation of the motor function. The animals were capable of taking food. They stayed perfectly upright and straight inside their cages and were also satisfactory in terms of their vigilance and species-specific behaviour. The only residual symptoms recorded were an occasional transient and slight resting tremor and a reduction in rough strength. There was no sedation. Circulation in the skin appeared to be greater than before the compound C was administered.
The effect of compound C diminished after about 5 to 7 hours and the animals reverted to the Parkinson symptoms described above; a fresh administration of this compound again leads to an improvement or substantial removal of the clinically pathological manifestations. The advantageous effects of the compounds were thus reproduced several times in each individual animal.
No side effects were detected at the dosages used hitherto.
Moreover, the compounds prepared according to the invention are largely non-toxic. Thus, when the substances were tested in mice at dosages of between 27 and 50 mg/kg s.c., no deaths were recorded.
In view of their pharmacological properties, the compounds of general formula I prepared according to the invention and the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof are suitable for the treatment of central nervous, neuropsychiatric diseases, particularly schizophrenia, for the treatment of Parkinsonism or Parkinson's disease and/or for treating circulatory disorders, particularly hypertension.
For pharmaceutical use, the new compounds and the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof, optionally combined with other active substances, may be incorporated in the conventional galenic preparations such as plain or coated tablets, powders, suppositories, suspensions, drops or ampoules. The individual dose is from 0.01 to 0.5 mg/kg of body weight, preferably 0.1 to 0.3 mg/kg of body weight, 1 to 4 times a day.
