Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to chemical compounds having pharmacological activity, to pharmaceutical compositions which include these compounds, and to a pharmaceutical method of treatment. More particularly, this invention concerns certain urea and thiourea compounds which inhibit the enzyme acyl coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT), pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds, and a method of treating hypercholesterolemia and atherosclerosis. This invention also describes novel intermediates useful in preparing the pharmaceutically active compounds of this invention.
In recent years the role which elevated blood plasma levels of cholesterol plays in pathological conditions in man has received much attention. Deposits of cholesterol in the vascular system have been indicated as causative of a variety of pathological conditions including coronary heart disease.
Initially, studies of this problem were directed toward finding therapeutic agents which would be effective in lowering total serum cholesterol levels. It is now known that cholesterol is transported in the blood in the form of complex particles consisting of a core of cholesteryl esters plus triglycerides and an exterior consisting primarily of phospholipids and a variety of types of protein which are recognized by specific receptors. For example, cholesterol is carried to the sites of deposits in blood vessels in the form of low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL cholesterol) and away from such sites of deposit by high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL cholesterol).
Following these discoveries, the search for therapeutic agents which control serum cholesterol turned to finding compounds which are more selective in their action; that is, agents which are effective in elevating the blood serum levels of HDL cholesterol and/or lowering the levels of LDL cholesterol. While such agents are effective in moderating the levels of serum cholesterol, they have little or no effect on controlling the initial absorption of dietary cholesterol in the body through the intestinal wall.
In intestinal mucosal cells, dietary cholesterol is absorbed as free cholesterol which must be esterified by the action of the enzyme acyl-CoA: cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) before it can be packaged into the chylomicrons which are then released into the blood stream. Thus, therapeutic agents which effectively inhibit the action of ACAT prevent the intestinal absorption of dietary cholesterol into the blood stream or the reabsorption of cholesterol which has been previously released into the intestine through the body's own regulatory action.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF INVENTION
The compounds of the present invention provide a novel class of heterocyclic ureas and thioureas which are ACAT inhibitors, rendering them useful in treating hypercholesterolemia and atherosclerosis.
Illustrative examples of straight or branched alkyl groups having from 1 to 16 carbon atoms are methyl, ethyl, n propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, iso-butyl, tert-butyl, n-pentyl, isopentyl, n-hexyl, n-heptyl, n-octyl, n-undecyl, n-dodecyl, n-hexadecyl, 2,2-dimethyldodecyl, and 2-ethyltetradecyl.
As is apparent from Formula I above, the compounds of the present invention are arylureas and arylthioureas containing a substituted heterocyclic group selected from triazoles (1 and 2); 1,3,4-thiadiazoles (3); 1,2,4-thiadiazoles (4); 1,3,4-oxadiazoles (5); and 1,2,4-oxadiazoles (6).
Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of Formula I are also included as a part of the present invention.
Suitable acids for forming acid salts of the compounds of this invention containing a basic group include, but are not necessarily limited to acetic, benzoic, benzenesulfonic, tartaric, hydrobromic, hydrochloric, citric, fumaric, gluconic, glucuronic, glutamic, lactic, malic, maleic, methanesulfonic, pamoic, salicylic, stearic, succinic, sulfuric, and tartaric acids. The acid addition salts are formed by procedures well known in the art.
The base salts may be generated from compounds of Formula I by reaction of the latter with one equivalent of a suitable nontoxic, pharmaceutically acceptable base followed by evaporation of the solvent employed for the reaction and recrystallization of the salt, if required. The compounds of Formula I may be recovered from the base salt by reaction of the salt with an aqueous solution of a suitable acid such as hydrobromic, hydrochloric, or acetic acid.
Suitable bases for forming base salts of the compounds of this invention include amines such as triethylamine or dibutylamine, or alkali metal bases and alkaline earth metal bases. Preferred alkali metal hydroxides and alkaline earth metal hydroxides as salt formers are the hydroxides of lithium, sodium, potassium, magnesium, or calcium. The class of bases suitable for the formation of nontoxic, pharmaceutically acceptable salts is well known to practitioners of the pharmaceutical formulation arts. See, for example, Stephen N. Berge, et al, J Pharm Sci 16, 1 19 (1977).
Certain compounds of the present invention may also exist in different stereoisomeric forms by virtue of the presence of asymmetric centers in the compound. The present invention contemplates all stereoisomeric forms of the compounds as well as mixtures thereof, including racemic mixtures. Individual stereoisomers may be obtained, if desired, by methods known in the art as, for example, the separation of stereoisomers on chiral chromatographic columns.
Further, the compounds of this invention may exist in unsolvated as well as solvated forms with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, ethanol, and the like. In general, the solvated forms are considered equivalent to the unsolvated forms for the purposes of this invention.
As shown by the data presented below in Table 1, the compounds of the present invention are potent inhibitors of the enzyme acyl-CoA: cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT), and are thus effective in inhibiting the esterification and transport of cholesterol across the intestinal cell wall. The compounds of the present invention are thus useful in pharmaceutical formulations for the treatment of hypercholesterolemia or atherosclerosis.
The ability of representative compounds of the present invention to inhibit ACAT was measured using an in vitro test more fully described by Field, F. J. and Salone, R. G., in Biochemica et Biophysica 712:557-570 (1982). The test assesses the ability of a test compound to inhibit the acylation of cholesterol by oleic acid by measuring the amount of radiolabeled cholesterol oleate formed from radiolabeled oleic acid in a tissue preparation containing rabbit intestinal microsomes.
The data appear in Table 1 where they are expressed in IC.sub.50 values; i.e., the concentration of test compound required to inhibit 50% expression of the enzyme.
In one in vivo screen designated APCC, male Sprague-Dawley rats (200 to 225 g) were randomly divided into treatment groups and dosed orally at 4 PM with either vehicle (CMC/Tween) or suspensions of test compounds in vehicle. The control group received vehicle alone. Immediately after dosing, all animals received ad libitum a chow diet supplemented with peanut oil (5.5%), cholesterol (1.5%) and cholic acid (0.5%). The next day the animals were sacrificed at 8 AM to obtain blood samples for cholesterol analysis using standard procedures. Statistical differences between mean cholesterol values for the same vehicle were determined using analysis of variance followed by Fisher's least significant test. The results of this trial for representative compounds of the present invention appear in Table 2. The compounds were administered at 30 milligrams per kilogram of body weight.
In therapeutic use as agents for treating hypercholesterolemia or atherosclerosis, the compounds of Formula I or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are administered to the patient at dosage levels of from 250 to 300 mg per 70 kg of body weight, this translates into a dosage of from 5 to 40 mg/kg of body weight per day. The specific dosages employed, however, may be varied depending upon the requirements of the patient, the severity of the condition being treated, and the activity of the compound being employed. The determination of optimum dosages for a particular situation is within the skill of the art.
For preparing the pharmaceutical compositions from the compounds of this invention, inert, pharmaceutically acceptable carriers can be either solid or liquid. Solid form preparations include powders, tablets, dispersible granules, capsules, and cachets.
A solid carrier can be one or more substances which may also act as diluents, flavoring agents, solubilizers, lubricants, suspending agents, binders, or tablet disintegrating agents; it can also be an encapsulating material.
In powders, the carrier is a finely divided solid which is in a mixture with the finely divided active component. In tablets, the active compound is mixed with the carrier having the necessary binding properties in suitable proportions and compacted in the shape and size desired.
Powders and tablets preferably contain between about 5% to about 70% by weight of the active ingredient. Suitable carriers are magnesium dicarbonate, magnesium stearate, talc, lactose, sugar, pectin, dextrin, starch, tragacanth, methyl cellulose, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, a low melting wax, cocoa butter, and the like.
The term "preparation" is intended to include the formulation of the active compound with encapsulating material as a carrier providing a capsule in which the active component (with or without other carriers) is surrounded by a carrier, which is thus in association with it. In a similar manner, cachets are also included.
Tablets, powders, cachets, and capsules can be used as solid dosage form suitable for oral administration.
Liquid form preparations include solutions, suspensions, or emulsions suitable for oral administration. Aqueous solutions for oral administration can be prepared by dissolving the active compound in water and adding suitable flavorants, coloring agents, stabilizers, and thickening agents as desired. Aqueous suspensions for oral use can be made by dispersing the finely divided active component in water together with a viscous material such as natural or synthetic gums, resins, methyl cellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, and other suspending agents known to the pharmaceutical formulation art.
Preferably, the pharmaceutical preparation is in unit dosage form. In such form, the preparation is divided into unit doses containing appropriate quantities of the active component. The unit dosage form can be a packaged preparation containing discrete quantities of the preparation, for example, packeted tablets, capsules, and powders in vials or ampoules. The unit dosage form can also be a capsule, cachet, or tablet itself, or it can be the appropriate number of these packaged forms.
The compounds of Formula I are prepared by various routes as depicted in the Flow Chart hereof. In Scheme I of the Flow Chart there is depicted the synthesis of compounds of Formula I wherein Het is the group (2) wherein R.sub.9 is a straight or branched alkylC.sub.1 -C.sub.16. In Scheme I the aminoguanidine (a), which is commercially available, is reacted with an appropriate acid, wherein R.sub.a is a straight or branched alkylC.sub.1 -C.sub.16, in the presence of N,N-dimethylaniline to give the substituted triazole amine (c). The amine (c) is reacted with an appropriate acylhalide (d) wherein alkyl is straight or branched and has from 1 to 6 carbon atoms to give the acyl amine derivative (e), which is reacted with an isocyanate or isothiocyanate (f) to give compounds of Formula I wherein Het is group (2) and further wherein R.sub.8 is ##STR5## and R.sub.9 is a straight or branched alkyl C.sub.1 -C.sub.16. Compounds (g) can be hydrolyzed to the corresponding compounds of Formula I wherein R.sub.8 is hydrogen. In Scheme I R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, and X have the meanings defined in Formula I.
The compounds of Formula I wherein Het is group (2) wherein R.sub.9 is --S(O).sub.P alkyl wherein the alkyl moiety is straight or branched and has from 1 to 16 carbon atoms are prepared as depicted in Scheme II of the Flow Chart.

The compounds of Formula I wherein Het represents group (1), i.e., wherein Het is: ##STR7## are prepared as shown in Scheme III of the Flow Chart. The triazole amine (n) is alkylated using an appropriate R.sub.7 halo compound (o) to give a mixture of compounds (p), (q), and (r) which can be separated chromatographically. The alkylated triazole amine is then reacted with an isocyanate or isothiocyanate to give compounds (s), (t), and (u) which correspond to compounds of Formula I wherein Het is group (1). In Scheme III the various symbols R.sub.7, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, and X have the meanings defined in Formula I.
The compounds of Formula I wherein the Het moiety is group (3) are prepared as set forth in Scheme IV of the Flow Chart. An appropriate acyl halide (v) is reacted with thiosemicarbazide (w) to give the intermediate (x) which is cyclized by treatment with an acid such as methanesulfonic acid to give the substituted thiadiazole amine (y). Reaction of (y) with an isocyanate or a isothiocyanate gives compounds of Formula I wherein Het is group (3). The acyl halides (v) are commercially available or are prepared from the corresponding acid. In Scheme IV, R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.7, and X have the meanings defined in Formula I.
In Scheme V of the Flow Chart is depicted the synthesis of compounds of Formula I wherein Het is group (4), i.e., the 1,2,4-thiadiazoles. The substituted thiadiazole amines (cc) are reacted with an isocyanate or isothiocyanate (dd) to give compounds (ee) which correspond to Formula I wherein Het is group (4). The thiadiazole amine (cc) is commercially available or can be prepared from an amidine of formula (aa) by treatment with potassium thiocyanate as generally described in Adv. Heterocyl. Chem. 5:119 (1965). The amidines are commercially available or can be prepared by treatment of a nitrile, R.sub.10 CN, with ammonia in ammonium chloride under pressure. The nitriles can be obtained from the corresponding alcohols, R.sub.10 OH, by procedures well known in the art.
The preparation of compounds of Formula I wherein Het is group (5) is shown in Scheme VI of the Flow Chart. The substituted oxadiazole amine (hh) is obtained by treating a commercially available acid ester (ff) with hydrazine in a lower alcohol to give the acylhydrazide (gg) which is cyclized with cyanogen bromide by treatment with KHCO.sub.3. The oxadiazole amine (hh) may also be commercially available. The acid ester (ff) can also be prepared readily from the corresponding acid. The oxadiazole amine (hh) is reacted with an appropriate isocyanate or isothiocyanate to give compounds (ii), which correspond to Formula I compounds wherein Het is group (5).
In Scheme VII of the Flow Chart is shown the synthesis of compounds of Formula I wherein Het is group (6). Hydroxyguanidine (jj) is reacted with an appropriate acid ester, R.sub.7 CO.sub.2 Me, which is commercially available or can be prepared readily from the acid, to give the oxadiazole amine (kk), which is reacted with an isocyanate or thioisocyanate to give compounds (11), which correspond to compounds of Formula I wherein Het is group (6). In Schemes VI and VII, the symbols R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.7, and X have the meanings defined in Formula I.
The isocyanates and isothiocyanates depicted in the Flow Charts as ##STR8## are commercially available or can be prepared by procedures well known in the art, e.g., see Jerry March, Advanced Organic Chemistry, Third Edition, John Wiley & Sons, 1985, p. 370.
