Description
BACKGROUND OF INVENTION
This invention pertains to novel phosphate derivatives, and to methods of preparation of such compounds. This invention is also concerned with compositions useful in the treatment of hypertension.
It is estimated that approximately fifteen percent (15%) or more of the adult population of the United States is hypertensive, i.e., having blood pressures greater than or equal to about 160/95 mm Hg. Of that population, approximately one-half is unaware of their hypertensive condition. An untreated hypertensive is at great risk of developing disabling or fatal left ventricular failure, myocardial infarction, cerebral hemorrhage or infarction, and renal failure at an early age. Hypertension is generally considered the most important risk factor predisposing to coronary and cerebral atherosclerosis. However, it is believed that effective medical control of hypertension will prevent or forestall all complications associated with hypertension, and will prolong the life of the hypertensive patient.
Drug therapy for hypertension includes use of diuretics, sympathetic depressants (e.g., .alpha.-blockers such as reserpine), vasodilators and finally blockers of sympathetic transmission at the neuroeffector junction (e.g., guanethidine or clonidine).
Among the vasodilators currently employed in hypertension therapy are diazoxide and sodium nitroprusside. Side effects of diazoxide therapy include nausea, vomiting, hyperglycemia and tachycardia. Side effects from sodium nitroprusside therapy include nausea, vomiting, agitation, muscular twitching and cutis anserina if blood pressure is reduced too rapidly. Minoxidil is also often used as a vasodilator in hypertension therapy. However, the side effects of minoxidil include sodium and water retention, and hirsutism. Hydralazine, a mild vasodilator, is also employed. Its side effects include headaches, tachycardia, fluid retention, aggravation of angina, gastrointestinal irritation, lupus-like syndrome, drug fever and psychosis.
Acetyl glyceryl ether phosphocholines have been recognized as having potent biological activity in platelet activation, and in vasoconstriction and vasodilation. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 4,329,302, which issueed on May 11, 1982 to Hanahan et al. Such phosphocholines have been identified as both a platelet activation factor (PAF) and an antihypertensive polar renomedullary lipid (APRL). See R. L. Wykle et al., FEBS LETTERS, 141: 29-32 (1982); M. L. Blank et al., BIOCHEMICAL AND BIOPHYSICAL RESEARCH COMMUNICATIONS, 90: 1194-1200 (1979). Antihypertensive phosphocholines do not occur as pre-formed components in the body; rather, such phosphocholines are synthesized by certain cells. See J. Benveniste et al., INT. ARCHS. ALLERGY APPL. IMMUNN., 66 (Supp. 1): 121-126 (1981); E. E. Muirhead, HYPERTENSION, 2: 444-464 (1980). APRL has been described as being accountable in great measure for the endocrine-type antihypertensive action exerted by the renal medullary and the renomedullary interstitial cells. M. L.

The compounds of the present invention are active as hypotensive agents as evidenced by their activity in the following test, the results of which are shown in Table I.
Under ether anesthesia, Weeks type cannulas (Peterson Technics) were surgically implanted in the abdominal aorta and vena cava of spontaneously hypertensive rats (Taconic Farms, Germantown, NY) and passed subcutaneously to the back of the neck where they were exteriorized. The cannulas were filled with saline, plugged and the rats returned to single cages where they were allowed food and water ad libitum.
At least three days following implantation of the cannulas, the rats were weighed and placed in Broome style restraining cages. The plug was removed from the aortic catheter which was connected to an arterial pressure transducer (Statham P23ID) using PE 100 polyethylene tubing and a stepdown connector fabricated from stainless steel hypodermic tubing. Mean arterial blood pressure was obtained by electrical damping of the pulse pressure channel. Heart rate was obtained from a tachograph triggered by the pulse pressure channel. All parameters were monitored on a Grass physiological recorder (Model 7).
The plug was removed from the vena cava catheter and a PE 20 polyethylene tubing extension was added using a piece of stainless steel hypodermic tubing. The other end was terminated with a 27G needle and one ml syringe.
All drugs were dissolved in saline or a mixture of ethanol and saline (25:75V:V) such that the volume injected intravenously was 0.1 ml/100 g body weight. All drugs were flushed in with 0.2 ml saline. Blood pressure was continually monitored both before and after introduction of the test compound.
When the compounds are employed for the above utility, they may be combined with one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, e.g., solvents, diluents and the like, and may be administered orally in such forms as tablets, capsules, dispersible powders, granules, or suspensions containing, for example, from about 0.5 to 5% of suspending agent, syrups containing, for example, from about 10 to 50% of sugar, and elixirs containing, for example, from about 20 to 50% ethanol, and the like, or parenterally in the form of sterile injectable solutions or suspensions containing from about 0.05 to 5% suspending agent in an isotonic medium. Such pharmaceutical preparations may contain, for example, from about 0.05% up to about 90% of the active ingredient in combination with the carrier, more usually between about 5% and 60% by weight.
The effective dosage of active ingredient employed may vary depending on the particular compound employed, the mode of administration and the severity of the condition being treated. However, in general, satisfactory results are obtained when the compounds of the invention are administered at a daily dosage of from about 1.0 .mu.g to about 100 mg/kg of animal body weight, preferably given in divided doses two to four times a day, or in sustained release form. For most large mammals the total daily dosage is from about 500 .mu.g to about 5,000 mg preferably from about 350 .mu.g to 3,500 mg. Dosage forms suitable for internal use comprise from about 25 .mu.g to 500 mg of the active compound in intimate admixture with a solid or liquid pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. This dosage regimen may be adjusted to provide the optimal therapeutic response. For example, several divided doses may be administered daily or the dose may be proportionally reduced as indicated by the exigencies of the therapeutic situation. A decided practical advantage is that these active compounds may be administered orally as well as by intravenous, intramuscular, or subcutaneous routes. Solid carriers include starch, lactose, dicalcium phosphate, microcrystalline cellulose, sucrose and kaolin, while liquid carriers include sterile water, polyethylene glycols, non-ionic surfactants and edible oils such as corn, peanut and sesame oils, as are appropriate to the nature of the active ingredient and the particular form of administration desired. Adjuvants customarily employed in the preparation of pharmaceutical compositions may be advantageously included, such as flavoring agents, coloring agents, preserving agents, and antioxidants, e.g., vitamin E, ascorbic acid, BHT and BHA.
The preferred pharmaceutical compositions from the stand-point of ease of preparation and administration are solid composition, particularly tablets and hard-filled or liquid-filled capsules. Oral administration of the compounds is preferred.
These active compounds may also be administered parenterally or intraperitoneally. Solutions or suspensions of these active compounds as a free base or pharmacologically acceptable salt can be prepared in water suitably mixed with a surfactant such as hydroxypropylcellulose. Dispersions can also be prepared in glycerol, liquid polyethylene glycols, and mixtures thereof in oils. Under ordinary conditions of storage and use, these preparations should contain a preservative to prevent the growth of microorganisms.
The pharmaceutical forms suitable for injection use include sterile aqueous solutions or dispersions and sterile powders for the extemporaneous preparation of sterile injectable solutions or dispersions. In all cases, the form must be sterile and must be fluid to the extent that easy syringability exists. It must be stable under the conditions of manufacture and storage and must be preserved against the contaminating action of microorganisms such as bacteria and fungi. The carrier can be a solvent or dispersion medium containing, for example, water, ethanol, polyol (e.g., glycerol, propylene glycol and liquid polyethylene glycol), suitable mixtures thereof, and vegetable oils.
In addition to the above utility, some of the compounds of this invention (such as 23 of flowsheet E) are useful for the preparation of other compounds of this invention.

Included in this invention are compounds of the formula: ##STR25## wherein R" is a C.sub.2 -C.sub.20 alkyl group, R.sub.1 " is a C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 alkyl group, y is an interger from 2 to 10 and J.sup.- is a pharmacologically acceptable anion. The compounds represented by the above formula are prepared as described hereinbelow in Flowsheet H.
According to the reactions outlined hereinbelow in Flowsheet H alkylation of an alcohol 37 with chloroacetic acid is accomplished by the prior formation of the sodium salt of the acid by addition to a suspension of excess sodium hydride in toluene; addition of the alcohol and refluxing furnishes, after work up, the carboxylic acid 38. The reaction of 38 with an excess of vinyl lithium in dimethoxyethane gives the unsaturated ketone 39. Compound 40 is prepared in a one pot reaction involving a sequential Michael addition and reduction. Thus, addition of an excess of a N,N-dimethylamino thiol 41 to an ethanol solution of 39 followed by the portionwise addition of sodium borohydride gives 40. Acylation of 40 with an anhydride and triethylamine gives the acyl derivative 42. The amino group of 42 is quarternized to give 43 by the reaction of an etheral solution of 42 with one equivalent of methyl iodide at room temperature for one to five days. Finally, oxidation of 43 to the sulfone is accomplished with 40% peracetic acid in methylene chloride at room temperature to give, after treatment with the desired anion exchange resin, the compounds of the invention of formula 44. ##STR26##
