BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Immunoregulatory abnormalities have been shown to exist in a wide variety of "autoimmune" and chronic inflammatory diseases, including systemic lupus erythematosis, chronic rheumatoid arthritis, type 1 diabetes mellitus, type 2 adult onset diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease, biliary cirrhosis, uveitis, multiple sclerosis and other disorders such as Chrons disease, ulcerative colitis, bullous pemphigoid, sarcoidosis, psoriasis, ichthyosis, and Graves ophthalmopathy. Although the underlying pathogenesis of each of these conditions may be quite different, they have in common the appearance of a variety of autoantibodies and self-reactive lymphocytes. Such self-reactivity may be due, in part, to a loss of the homeostatic controls under which the normal immune system operates.
Similarly, following a bone-marrow or an organ transplantation, the host lymphocytes recognize the foreign tissue antigens and begin to produce antibodies which lead to graft rejection.
One end result of an autoimmune or a rejection process is tissue destruction caused by inflammatory cells and the mediators they release. Antiflammatory agents such as NSAID's and corticosteroids act principally by blocking the effect or secretion of these mediators but do nothing to modify the immunologic basis of the disease. On the other hand, cytotoxic agents such as cyclophosphamide, act in such a nonspecific fashion that both the normal and autoimmune responses are shut off. Indeed, patients treated with such nonspecific immunosuppressive agents are as likely to succumb from infection as they are from their autoimmune disease.
Cyclosporin A which was approved by the U.S. FDA in 1983 is currently the leading drug used to prevent rejection of transplanted organs. The drug acts by inhibiting the body's immune system from mobilizing its vast arsenal of natural protecting agents to reject the transplant's foreign protein. Though cyclosporin A is effective in fighting transplant rejection, it is nephrotoxic and is known to cause several undesirable side effects including kidney failure, abnormal liver function and gastrointestinal discomfort.
Newer, safer drugs exhibiting less side effects are constantly being searched for in the field.
The 23-membered tricyclo-macrolide immunosuppressant, tacrolimus, FR-900506, FK-506, ##STR3## (17-allyl-1,14-dihydroxy-12-[2'-(4"-hydroxy-3"-methoxycyclohexyl)-1'-methy l vinyl]-23,25-dimethoxy-13,19,21,27-tetramethyl-11,28-dioxa-4-azatricyclo[22 .3.1.0.sup.4,9 ]-octacos-18-ene-2,3,10,16-tetraone)and related compounds which were isolated and characterized by Tanaka, Kuroda, and co-workers at Fujisawa Pharmaceutical Co. in Japan, see J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1987, 109, 5031, and U.S. Pat. No. 4,894,366, issued Jan. 16, 1990) have been shown to possess exceptional immunosuppressive activity. Fujisawa United States patents (U.S. Pat. No. 4,929,611, issued May 29, 1990, U.S. Pat. No. 4,956,352, issued Sep. 11, 1990 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,110,811, issued May 5, 1992) disclose the use of FK-506-type compounds in treating resistance to transplantation. In particular, the compound FR-900506 has been reported to be 100 times more effective than cyclosporin in the suppression of in vitro immune systems (J. Antibiotics 1987, 40, 1256). In addition, these compounds are reputed to possess topical activity in the treatment of inflammatory and hyperproliferative skin diseases and cutaneous manifestations of immunologically-mediated illnesses (EPO Pub. No. 0,315,978).
The compound FK-506 and related compounds further have been suggested to be useful in the treatment of obstructive airways disease, particularly asthma (PCT Publication WO 90/14826), male pattern alopecia or alopecia senilis (EPO Publication No. 0,423,714), rheumatoid arthritis (C. Arita, et al., Clinical exp. Immunol., 1990, 82, 456-461; N. Inamura, et al., Clin. Immunol. Immunopathol, 1988, 46, 82-90), recent-onset diabetes (N. Murase, et al., Diabetes, 1990, 39, 1584-86; N. Murase, et al., Lancet, 1990, 336, 373-74), posterior uveitis (H. Kawashima, Invest. Ophthalmol. Vis. Sci., 1988, 29, 1265-71), hepatic injury associated with ischemia (M. Sakr, et al., Life Sci., 1990, 47, 687-91) allergic encephalomyelitis (K, Deguchi, et al., Brain Nerve., 1990, 42, 391-97), glomerulonephritis (J. McCauley, et al., Lancet, 1990, 335, 674), systemic lupus erythematosus (K. Takabayashi, et al., Clin. Immunol. Immunopathol., 1989, 51, 110-117) multidrug resistance (M. Naito, et al., Cancer Chemother. Pharmacol., 1992, 29, 195-200), intimation of mucosa and blood vessels (PCT Publication WO 92/17754), cytomegalovirus infection (UK Publication GB 2,247,620A), and idiopathic thrombocytophenic purpura and Basedow's disease (PCT Publication WO 91/19495).
Baldness or alopecia, in addition to male pattern alopecia, female pattern alopecia, and alopecia senilis, includes alopecia areta, and further, diseases accompanied by basic skin lesions such as cicatrix or infectious tumors, or accompanied by systemic disorders, for examples, an internal secretion abnormality or nutritional disorder.
In regard to alopecia areata, it is considered that an autoimmune phenomenon participates therein, and therefore, the administration of a substance having an immunosuppressive action can have therapeutical effect on alopecia areata.
The causes of human pattern alopecia (also called "androgenic alopecia") and alopecia senilis are considered to be: an activation of male hormones at organs such as hair roots and the sebum gland; a lowering in the amount of blood reaching the hair follicles; a scalp abnormality caused by an excessive secretion of sebum, a formation or peroxides, or a propagation of bacteria; genetic; causes; and aging.
The compound minoxidil (6-amino-1,2-dihydro-1-hydroxy-2-imino4-piperidinopyrimidine) was approved by the FDA for the treatment of male pattern baldness in August 1988. Minoxidil was also approved by the FDA for the treatment of female androgenetic alopecia on August 13, 1991. The preparation of minoxidil is described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,382,247, 3,644,364 and 4,098,791. Upjohn U.S. Pats. (U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,139,619 and 4,596,812) discloses the use of minoxidil in the topical treatment of human baldness. Similarly, an Upjohn U.S. Pat. (U.S. Pat. No. 5,026,691) discloses the use of minoxidil and an antiinflammatory agent for the treatment of patterned male and female alopecia. Japanese patent Kokai 61-260010 states that topical minoxidil formulations containing other specified agents may be prepared. An Upjohn WIPO patent application (PCT Publication No. WO 92/09259) discloses a method and composition for promoting hair growth in mammals comprising the administration of a potassium channel opener and an androgen receptor blocker. A University of Miami WIPO patent application (PCT Publication No. WO 92/12703.) discloser a method of stimulating hair growth comprising the topical application of a phospholipid.
Merck U.S. Pat. No. 4,760,071 discloses the 5.alpha.-reductase inhibitor 17.beta.-(N-tert-butylcarbamoyl)-4-aza-5.alpha.-androst-1-en-3-one. Harris, et al., (Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A., 89, 10787-10791 (November 1992)) and Melin, et al. (J. Steroid Biochem. Molec. Biol., 44(2), 121-131 (1993)) disclose the use of scalp-selective 5.alpha.-reductase inhibitors in the treatment of male pattern baldness, ache and hirsutism.

B. Preparation of Compounds Within the Scope of the Present Invention
The starting materials for the preparation of the compounds of this invention are represented by Formula H: ##STR19## wherein: E is hydrogen or methyl;
W is O or (H, OH);
R.sup.3 is hydrogen, hydroxy, C.sub.1-6 acyloxy, or C.sub.1-6 alkoxy;
R.sup.4 is is hydrogen, or R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 taken together form a double bond;
R.sup.5 is methyl, ethyl, propyl or allyl; and
n is 1 or2.
The production and characterization of compounds of Formula II is well known in the literature (see U.S. Pat. No. 4,894,366 issued Jan. 16, 1990; U.S. Pat. No. 4,929,611 issued May 29, 1990; U.S. Pat. No. 3,244,592 issued Apr. 15, 1966; EPO Publication No. 0,323,042; EPO Publication 0,356,399; PBJ Disclosure 63-17884; J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1987, 109, 5031; J. Antibiotics, 1987, 40, 1249 J. Antibiotics, 1988, 41 (11), 1592; and J. Antibiotics., 1992, 45 (1), 118). Both biological fermentation and synthetic processes may be found. A synthetic route to compounds of Formula II can involve modifications of a route described in J. Am, Chem, Soc., 1989, 111, 1157.
Biological fermentation followed by synthetic modification is presently favored in the art as the method to produce compounds of Formula II. Organisms belonging to the genus Streptomyces such as Streptomyces tsukubaensis, No. 9993 and Streptomyces hygroscopicus, var. ascomycetis, No. 14891 placed in an aqueous nutrient medium will produce desired compounds in isolable amounts. The nutrient medium contains sources of assimilable carbon and nitrogen, preferably under aerobic conditions. Produced in fermentation are four compounds of Formula II, (A) where E is methyl, W is O, R.sup.3 is hydroxyl, R.sup.4 is hydrogen R.sup.5 is allyl and n is 2; (B) where E is methyl, W is O, R.sup.3 is hydroxyl, R.sup.4 is hydrogen, R.sup.5 is ethyl and n is 2; (C) where E is methyl, W is O, R.sup.3 is hydroxyl, R.sup.4 is hydrogen, R.sup.5 is methyl and n is 2; and (D) where E is methyl W is O, R.sup.3 is hydroxyl, R.sup.4 is hydrogen, R.sup.5 is allyl and n is 1.
A lyophilized sample of the isolated Streptomyces tsukubaensis, No. 9993 was deposited with the Fermentation Research Institute, Agency of Industrial Science and Technology (No. 1-3, Higashi 1-chome, Yatabemachi Tsukuba-gun, Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan) under the deposit number of FERM P-7886 (deposit date: Oct. 5th, 1984), and then converted to Budapest Treaty route of the same depository on Oct. 19, 1985 under the new deposit number of FERM BP-927.
Compounds A, B, C and D of Formula II, organisms to produce the same, conditions of fermentation, separation techniques, and chemical modification of the products are fully described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,894,366, issued Jan. 16, 1990 and U.S. Pat. No. 4,929,611, issued May 29, 1990.
Using the four compounds produced in fermentation above, the remaining compounds of Formula II may be easily produced. The allyl of R.sup.5 may be conveniently reduced to propyl by well known methods, for example as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,894,366. The hydroxy of R.sup.3 may be protected by well known methods, for example as disclosed in EPO Publication No. 0,323,042. Likewise, the hydroxyl at C-4" may also be protected. In addition, the hydroxy of R.sup.3 may be reduced to a hydrogen or eliminated to form a double bond with R.sup.4 (by methods disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,894,366, EPO Publication No. 0,323,042 or EPO Publication No. 0,413,532). The carbonyl of W may be reduced to the alcohol by methods disclosed in EPO Publication No. 0,323,042 or by methods disclosed in EPO Publication No. 0,445,975.
The methyl of E as produced may be replaced with hydrogen or demethylated and subsequently protected as desired, if necessary. This demethylation of compounds wherein E is methyl may be carried out in a fermentation reaction using the compounds of Formula II as a feedstock. For instance, compound A named under Formula II above may be demethylated at E above by using the microorganism Actinomycetales ATCC No. 53771 (described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,981,792) or produced directly by using the microorganism Streptomyces tsukubaensis, No. 9993 (described in EPO Publication No. 0,353,678). Similarly, compound B named under Formula II above may be demethylated at E above using the microorganism Actinoplanacete sp. ATCC No. 53771 (described in EOP Publication No. 0,349,061). In addition the compound of Formula II wherein E is H, W is O, R.sup.3 is hydroxy, R.sup.4 is ethyl and n is 2 may be produced directly by fermentation using the mutant microorganism Streptomyces hygroscopicus sup. ascomyceticus, No. 53855 (being a blocked mutant of Streptomyces hygroscopicus sup. ascomyceticus, No. 14891) (as described in EPO Publication No. 0.388.152,). Similarly, the compound of Formula II wherein E is hydrogen, W O, R.sup.3 is hydroxy, R.sup.4 is hydrogen R.sup.5 is methyl and n is 2 may be produced directly by fermentation using the mutant microorganism Streptomyces hygroscopicus sup. ascomyceticus, No. 53855 (being a blocked mutant of Streptomyces hygroscopicus sup. ascomyceticus, No. 14891) (as described in EPO Publication No. 0,388,153). The hydroxy of C-3" may be protected by methods similar to those known for the protection of the hydroxyl groups of R.sup.3 and/or C-4", for example as disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 4,894,366.
Suitable protecting groups for hydroxyl include those groups well known in the art which are:
1-(lower alkylthio)(lower)alkyl, wherein "lower alkyl" indicates a straight, cyclic or branched chain of one to six carbon atoms, such as lower alkylthiomethyl (e.g. methylthiomethyl, ethylthiomethyl, propylthiomethyl, isopropylthiomethyl, butylthiomethyl, isobutylthiomethyl, hexylthiomethyl, etc.), and the like, in which the preferred one may be C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkylthiomethyl and the most preferred one may be methylthiomethyl; trisubstituted silyl such as tri(lower)alkylsilyl (e.g. trirnethylsilyl, triethylsilyl, tributysilyl, tri-i-propylsilyl, t-butyldimethylsilyl, tri-t-butylsilyi, etc.), lower alkyldiarylsilyl (e.g. methyldiphenylsilyl, ethyl-diphenylsilyl, propyl-diphenylsilyl, t-butyldiphenylsilyl, etc.), and the like, in which the preferred one may be tri(C.sub.1 -C.sub.4)alkylsilyl and C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl-diphenylsilyl, and the most preferred one may be tert-butyl-dimethylsilyl, triipropylsilyl and tert-butyldiphenylsilyl; acyl such as aliphatic acyl, aromatic acyl and aliphatic acyl substituted with aromatic group, which are derived from carboxylic acids; and the like.
Compounds A, B, C and D of Formula II, organisms to produce the same, conditions of fermentation, separation techniques, and chemical modification of the products are fully described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,894,366, dated Jan. 16, 1990, U.S. Pat. No. 4,929,611, issued May 29, 1990 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,110,811, issued May 5, 1992.
The 5.alpha.-reductase inhibitor may be an inhibitor of 5.alpha.-reductase isozyme 1 and/or 5.alpha.-reductase isozyme 2. A preferred 5.alpha.-reductase inhibitor is finasteride.

As shown in Reaction Scheme C the 14-hydroxyl group of the macrolide (wherein R.sup.5, R.sup.12, R.sup.13, W and n are as defined above) may be eliminated by treatment with p-toluenesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, methanesulfonic acid, p-nitrobenzenesulfonic acid, p-bromobenzenesulfonic acid, p-chlorobenzenesulfonic acid, or p-methoxybenzenesulfonic acid, or mixtures thereof, in an inert organic solvent such as benzene, or toluene or the like at a temperature of 40.degree. C. to solvent reflux temperature, preferably 60.degree. C., for about 0.5 to 6 hours, or a sufficient period of time to eliminate the 14-hydroxyl group. Neutralization with an aqueous solution of a weak base such as aqueous saturated sodium bicarbonate gives the 14,15-dehydro macrolide. The 14-hydroxy group may also be eliminated by activation followed by basic elimination, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,894,366. (The resultant olefin may then be reduced by the hydrogenation methods essentially disclosed in Reaction Scheme O.)
By changing the sequence of synthethic steps, all possible variations of substitution can be achieved. For example, the C-14 hydroxyl group may be eliminated and the resultant double bond reduced prior to the introduction of alkenyl or alkynyl substituents at C-3" and/or C-4".
The procedures described in Reaction Scheme C may optionally be conducted prior to the procedures of Reaction Scheme B. Alternatively, the procedures described in Reaction Scheme D may be performed.

(The alkenyl or alkynyl group(s) may be reduced to the corresponding alkane essentially by the procedures described in Reaction Scheme O).
As further shown in Reaction Scheme E the silyl protecting group is removed such as by treatment with toluenesulfonic acid in a mixture of methanol and methylene chloride and the resultant primary hydroxyl group is converted to the aldehyde by Dess-Martin oxidation or preferably by treatment with tetra-n-propylammonium perruthenate (TPAP) and 4-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMO).
Similarly, as shown in Reaction Scheme F, the appropriate 3",4"-dihydroxy macrolide (or the 3"- or 4"- mono-substituted hydroxy macrolide) is treated with a protected benzyloxy-substituted alkenyl or alkynyl trichloroacetirnidate (wherein A is as defined above and contains an allylie group adjacent to the oxygen) under conditions essentially as described in Reaction Scheme E to give the macrolide beating a pendent protected benzyloxy group.
As shown in Reaction Scheme G, a solution of the 3",4"-dihydroxy macrolide (or the 3"- or 4"-mono-substituted hydroxy macrolide) in an inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride, benzene, toluene, chloroform, or the like or mixtures thereof is treated with a triarylbismuth diacetate reagent (wherein aryl is protected benzaldehyde, benzyloxy, benzimidazole, benzothiazole, or benzoxazole) (prepared immediately prior to use by the addition of acetic acid to a suspension of a triarylbismuth carbonate in an inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride, choroform or the like or mixture thereof) in the presence of a catalytic amount of copper(II) acetate at a temperature of 20.degree.-50.degree. C., preferably room temperature, for a period of one hour to seven days, preferably one day, to give the 3"- and/or 4"-O-aryl- macrolide. Alternatively, the triarylbismuth(V) reagent can be prepared by treatment of a triarylbismuthine with a suitable oxidant such as peracetic acid, iodobenzene diacetate, bis(trifluoroacetoxy)iodobenzene and the like in an inert solvent such as methylene chloride, chloroform, benzene, toluene and the like. The triarylbismuth(V) reagent can be used without purification or can be purified by silica gel chromatography. Triarylbismuthines may be prepared by the reaction of an appropriate aryl Grignard reagent with bismuth trichloride in an inert organic solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, diethyl ether, or 1,4-dioxane, or mixtures thereof, at or near room temperature for a period of 1 to 48 hours. General procedures for the preparation and use of triaryl bismuth reagents may be found in Barton, D. H. E., et al., J. Chem. Soc. Chem. Commun., 1986, 65 and references cited therein.
As shown in Reaction Scheme H the acetal protecting group is removed from the substituted aryl group (wherein A is as defined above) by treatment with toluenesulfonic acid in methanol to provide the corresponding benzaldehyde.
Similarly, as shown in Reaction Scheme I, a solution of the 3",4"-dihydroxy macrolide (or the 3"- or 4"-mono-substituted hydroxy macrolide) in an inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride, benzene, toluene, chloroform, or the like or mixtures thereof is treated with an alkenyl triarylbismuth diacetate reagent (prepared immediately prior to use by the addition of acetic acid to a suspension of a triarylbismuth carbonate in an inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride, chloroform, or the like or mixtures thereof) in the presence of a catalytic amount of copper(II) acetate at a temperature of 20.degree.-50.degree. C., preferably 40.degree. C., for a period of one hour to seven days, preferably 6 hours, to give a mixture of the 3"-O-styrene-4"-hydroxy macrolide, the 3"-hydroxy-4"-O-styrene macrolide, and the 3",4"-di-O-styrene macrolide.
As shown in Reaction Scheme J, the 3"-,4"-dihydroxy macrolide (or the 3" or 4" mono-substituted hydroxy macrolide) (wherein A is as defined above and is CH.sub.2 or contains an allylic group or a benzylic group adjacent to the oxygen) is treated with an alkenyl trichloroacetimidate under conditions essentially as described in Reaction Scheme E to give the 3"- or 4"-0-alkenyl macrolide.
As shown in Reaction Scheme K, the O-alkenyl macrolide (wherein A is as defined above and is CH.sub.2 or contains an allylic group adjacent to the oxygen) may be treated with a stochiometric mount of osmium tetraoxide in an inert organic solvent, such as diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran, in the presence of an amine base, such as pyridine, at or near room temperature to give the corresponding glycol. Preferably, the glycol may be prepared by use of a catalytic amount of osmium tetraoxide in an inert organic solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran or diethyl ether, in the presence of a stochiometric oxidant, such as 4-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMO). Treatment of the glycol with sodium metaperiodate in a solution of tetrahydrofuran/water gives the aldehyde. Alternatively, the --O-alkenyl macrolide may be treated with sodium metaperiodate in the presence of a catalytic amount of osmium tetraoxide in an organic solvent to give the aldehyde directly.
A variety of imidazoles may be prepared from the corresponding aldehyde as illustrated in Reaction Scheme L. The aldehyde may be reacted with glyoxal, an .alpha.-keto aldehyde or an .alpha.,.beta.-diketone (where in R.sup.7 and R.sup.8 are as defined above) in an alcoholic solvent, such as methanol, in the presence of ammonium hydroxide to give the corresponding imidazolyl macrolide. Treatment with hydrogen fluoride/pyridine removes any silyl protecting groups that may be present.
As shown in Reaction Scheme M, the free nitrogen of the imidazole substituent may be alkylated at either nitrogen atom of the imidazole by treatment with an appropriate alkyl, alkenyl or arylalkyl halide (wherein LG is I, Br or Cl) in the presence of silver (I) oxide to give the desired N-substituted imidazolyl macrolide.
As shown in Reaction Scheme N, the imidazole may be further modified by utilizing the methods of Reaction Scheme G (wherein R.sup.1.sub.a is unsubstituted or substituted phenyl, naphthyl or biphenyl) or Reaction Scheme E (wherein R.sup.1.sub.b is unsubstituted or substituted alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl). It is noted that such procedures may also be performed on dihydroxyl imidazoles to give the disubstituted imidazole macrolides, and by employing appropriate protecting groups to give the mixed disubstituted imidazoles. The procedures described in Reaction Scheme L-N are readily applicable to the preparation of compounds bearing analogous functionality at C-3".
As shown in Reaction Scheme O the macrolide (wherein A is alkenyl, substituted alkenyl, alkynyl or substituted alkynyl) is reduced under an atmosphere of hydrogen in the presence of a noble metal catalyst, such as rhodium on carbon catalyst or rhodium on alumina catalyst, at a pressure of atmospheric pressure to 40 psig, at or near room temperature in an organic solvent such as ethyl acetate or ethanol for about 1 to 24 hours, or until the requisite amount of hydrogen is absorbed to reduce the olefin and give the reduced macrolide (wherein A.sup.a is alkyl or substituted alkyl). The procedures of Scheme O may be conducted prior to the formation of the imidazole group.
As shown in Reaction Scheme P, benzothiazole compounds can be prepared by treatment of the suitably protected macrolide with a benzothiazole containing a leaving group (LG=halogen or OTf) with a suitable base such as silver (I) oxide.
As shown in Reaction Scheme Q, benzoxazole compounds can be prepared by treatment of the suitably protected macrolide with a benzothiazole containing a leaving group (LG=halogen or OTf) with a suitable base such as silver (I) oxide. Such compounds may be modified essentially as described in Reaction Schemes M and N.
As shown in Reaction Scheme R, imidazolidyl ether containing compounds can be prepared by treatment of the suitable protected macrolide with an imidazolidyl reagent bearing a leaving group such as p-toluenesulfonate, p-nitrobenzenesulfonate, methanesulfonate, acetate, trifluoroacetate, benzoate, p-nitrobenzoate, and the like in an inert solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, diethyl ether, methylene chloride, benzene, acetonitrile with an amine base such as triethyl amine, diisopropylethyl amine, pyridine, 2,6-dimethylpyridine and the like at or about room temperature. Such compounds may be modified essentially as described in Reaction Schemes M and N.
A hydroxyl or fluoro group may be introduced at C-20 essentially by the procedures of Reaction Scheme S. As shown in Reaction Scheme S the 4",14-dihydroxy macrolide (or the 14-deoxy macrolide) is protected as the di(t-butyldimethylsilyl ether) by treatment with t-butyldimethylsilyl triflate in an inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride, chloroform or the like in the presence of a non-nucleophilic base such as 2,6-1utidine. The diprotected macrolide is oxidized at C-20 as further shown in Reaction Scheme S by treatment with selenium dioxide in an alcoholic solvent such as ethanol in the presence of pyridine at solvent reflux temperature to give the 20-hydroxy macrolide. The 20-hydroxy macrolide may be further derivatized by alkylation, acylation or phosphorylation to give ether, ester or phosphate derivatives by procedures well known to the practitioner of the art. As further illustrated, treatment of the 20-hydroxy 4",14-di-OTBS macrolide with diethylaminosulfur trifluoride in an inert organic solvent such as methylene chloride, chloroform or the like at a temperature of about 0.degree. C. to -90.degree. C., preferably about -78.degree. C., gives the 20-fluoro 4", 14-di-OTBS macrolide. Removal of the silyl ether protecting groups by treatment with hydrogen fluoride-pyridine complex in tetrahydrofuran gives the 20-fluoro 4",14-dihydroxy macrolide which may be further derivatized by any of the methods previously described. Reaction Scheme S may also be performed on the 3",4",14-trihydroxy macrolide to give the 20-fluoro 3",4",14-trihydroxy macrolide. The procedures of Reaction Scheme S may be conducted prior to, concurrent with, or subsequent to the procedures of Reaction Schemes A-R.
As shown in Reaction Scheme T, the imidazole analogs can be modified at the C-14 position by treatment with a carboxylic acid under typical acylation conditions to provide the corresponding ester analogs. Deprotection of any amino protecting groups can be performed subsequent to acylation.
The object compounds of Formula I obtained according to the reactions as explained above can be isolated and purified in a conventional manner, for example, extraction, precipitation, fractional crystallization, recrystallization, chromatography, and the like.
In the compounds of Formula I R.sup.1 O- may be substituted at C-3" or C-4" or both C-3" and C-4", but it is preferred that R.sup.1 O-- is substituted at C-4".

Although the 5.alpha.-reductase inhibitor or the potassium channel opener may be administered topically or orally, it is preferable that it be administered topically to the scalp. For unitary formulation, however, the preferred mode of administration is topically. It is especially preferred that the hair revitalizing composition of the present invention is administered by a percutaneous administration or by spraying onto the skin.
Dosage levels of the compounds of the present invention are of the order from about 0,005 mg to about 50 mg per kilogram of body weight per day, preferably from about 0.1 mg to about 10 mg per kilogram of body weight per day, are useful in the treatment of the above-indicated conditions (from about 0.7 mg to about 3.5 mg per patient per day, assuming a 70 kg patient). In addition, the compounds of the present invention may be administered on an intermittent basis; i.e. at daily, semiweekly, weekly, semi-monthly or monthly intervals.
The amount of active ingredient that may be combined with the carrier materials to produce a single dosage form will vary depending upon the host treated and the particular mode of administration. For example, a formulation intended for the oral administration of humans may contain from 0.5 mg to 5 gm of active agent compounded with an appropriate and convenient amount of carrier material which may vary from about 5 to about 95 percent of the total composition. Dosage unit forms will generally comprise from about 0.01 mg to about 500 rag, and preferably about 0.5 mg to about 100 mg of active ingredient. For external administration the compound of Formula I may be formulated within the range of, for example, 0.0001% to 60% by weight, preferably from 0.001 to 10% by weight, and most preferably from about 0.005 to 0.8% by weight.
It will be understood, however, that the specific dose level for any particular patient will depend on a variety of factors including the activity of the specific compound employed, the age, body weight, general health, sex, diet, time of administration, route of administration, rate of excretion, drug combination and the severity of the particular disease undergoing therapy.

T-Cell Proliferation Assay
1. Sample Preparation
The compounds to be assayed were dissolved in absolute ethanol at 1 mg/ml.
2. Assay
Spleens from C57B 1/6 mice were taken under sterile conditions and gently dissociated in ice-cold RPMI 1640 culture medium (GIBC), Grand Island, N.Y.) supplemented with 10% heat-inactivated fetal calf serum (GIBO)). Cells were pelleted by centrifugation at 1500 rpm for 8 minutes. Contaminating red cells were removed by treating the pellet with ammonium chloride lysing buffer (GIBO)) for 2 minutes at 4.degree. C. Cold medium was added and cells were again centrifuged at 1500 rpm for 8 minutes. T lymphocytes were then isolated by separation of the cell suspension on nylon wool columns as follows: Nylon wool columns were prepared by packing approximately 4 grams of washed and dried nylon wool into 20 ml plastic syringes. The columns were sterilized by autoclaving at 25.degree. F. for 30 minutes. Nylon wool coitus were wetted with warm (37.degree. C.) culture medium and rinsed with the same medium. Washed spleen cells resuspended in warm medium were slowly applied to the nylon wool. The columns were then incubated in an upright position at 37.degree. C. for 1 hour. Nonadherent T lymphocytes were eluted from the columns with warm culture medium and the cell suspensions were spun as above.
Purified T lymphocytes were resuspended at 2.5.times.10.sup.5 cells/ml in complete culture medium composed of RPMI 1640 medium with 10% heat-inactivated fetal calf serum, 100 mM glutamine, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 2.times.10.sup.-5 M 2-mercaptoethanol and 50 .mu.g/ml gentamycin. Ionomycin was added at 250 ng/ml and PMA at 10 ng/ml. The cell suspension was immediately distributed into 96 well flat-bottom microculture plates (Costar) at 200 .mu.l/well. The various dilutions of the compound to be tested were then added in triplicate wells at 20 .mu.l/well. The compound 17-allyl-1,14-dihydroxy-12-[2'-(4"- hydroxy-3"-methoxycyclohexyl)-1'-methylvinyl]-23,25-dimethoxy-13,19,21,27- tetramethyl-11,28-dioxa-4-azatricyclo[22.3.1.0.sup.4,9 ]octacos-18-ene-2,3,10,16-tetraone was used as a standard. The culture plates were then incubated at 37.degree. C. in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO.sub.2 -95% air for 44 hours. The proliferation of T lymphocytes was assessed by measurement of tritiated thymidine incorporation. After 44 hours of culturing, the cells were pulse-labelled with 2 .mu.Ci/well of tritiated thymidine (NEN, Cambridge, Mass.). After another 4 hours of incubation, cultures were harvested on glass fiber filters using a multiple sample harvester. Radioactivity of filter discs corresponding to individual wells was measured by standard liquid scintillation counting methods (Betacounter). Mean counts per minute of replicate wells were calculated and the results expressed as concentration of compound required to inhibit tritiated thymidine uptake of T-cells by 50%.
A selection of compounds were tested according to the previous procedure. The concentration of compound required to inhibit the proliferation of T-cells by 50% was measured, and the results were as follows.
The title compounds of the following Examples had activity in inhibiting the proliferation of T-cells in the aforementioned assay: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 15, 16, 18, 20, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, and 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77 and 78.
The results of this assay are representative of the intrinsic immunosuppressive activity of the compounds of the present invention.
For determining antagonist activity, the foregoing procedure is modified in that dilutions of compounds are cultured with 17-ally-1,14-dihydroxy-12-[2'-(4"-hydroxy-3"-methoxycyclohexyl)-1'-methylv inyl]-23,25-dimethoxy-13,19,21,27-tetramethyl-11,28-dioxa-4-azatricyclo[22. 3.1.0.sup.4,9 ]octacos-18-ene-2,3,10,16-tetraone (as a standard) at a concentration of 1.2 nM, a concentration which inhibits T cell proliferation by 100%, the concentration of compound required to reverse the inhibition obtained by the standard alone by 50% is measured, and the ED.sub.50 value is determined.
While the foregoing specification teaches the principles of the present invention, with examples provided for the purpose of illustration, it will be understood that the practice of the invention encompasses all of the casual variations, adaptations, modifications, deletions, or additions of procedures and protocols described herein, as come within the scope of the following claims and its equivalents.
