With respect to a bioactivity of a compounds described in (14) to (16), there is disclosure about local anesthesia action in (14), antibacterial action in (15) and anticonvulsion action in (16). However, there is no disclosure ever suggesting that these compounds have ACAT-inhibitory action, blood cholesterol lowering action and tachykinin receptor antagonizing action.
Against this background, there has been demand for the development of a compound which exhibits excellent ACAT-inhibitory action, which suppresses intestinal cholesterol absorption and arterial wall cholesterol ester accumulation in mammals, and which is useful as a prophylactic and therapeutic composition for hypercholesterolemia, atheromatous arteriosclerosis and various diseases associated therewith (e.g., ischemic heart diseases such as myocardial infarction and cerebrovascular disorders such as cerebral infarction and cerebral stroke).
And, tachykinin is a generic term denoting a group of neuropeptides. In mammalian animals, :substance P, neurokinin-A and neurokinin-B are known. It is also known that by binding their respective receptors (neurokinin-1, neurokinin-2, neurokinin-3) present in the living body, these peptides exhibit a diversity of biological activities.
Among them, substance P is a neuropeptide known for the longest time of all and studied in the greatest detail. Substance P is known to play a critical role as a transmitter substance in both the peripheral and central nervous systems. This substance is also suspected to be involved in a variety of morbid states (pain, inflammation, allergy, facilitation of micturition, mental disease, airway-diseases, etc.). Such being the case, for use as drugs for the treatment of the above-mentioned disease states, the development of compounds having potent tachykinin receptor antagonizing activity, particularly high antagonistic activity against substance P receptor, as well as other favorable properties such as safety and a sufficiently long duration of action after administration has been looked after in earnest.
This invention concerns certain heterocyclic compounds which inhibit the enzyme ACAT, pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds, and a method of treating hypercholesterolemia and artherosclerosis and so on, and antagonize the tachykinin receptor, pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds, and a method of treating pain, disturbances of micturition and inflammation and so on.

The carboxyl group of (VII-1) to (VII-5) is treated with diazomethane to add one carbon atom to the carboxyl group by a reaction generally known as the Arndt-Eistert reaction (F. Arndt et al.: Chemische Berichte, Vol. 68, page 200 (published 1935)) to yield (VII-6) to (VII-10), respectively. For example, a method is known wherein a compound of formula (VII-5) whose ring A is not substituted for and whose ring B is not substituted for or has substituent methyl for R.sup.3 in the above formula is converted to a corresponding compound of formula (II-10) having a substituent (I.N. Chatterjea et al.: Liebigs Ann. Chem., 1974, page 1126); by this method or a method based thereon, (VII-6) to (VII-10) can be produced. In this method, the desired compound may be isolated as a carboxylic acid ester (methyl ester, ethyl ester etc.), which ester is then converted to a carboxylic acid by hydrolysis. This hydrolyzing reaction is normally carried out in a solvent (e.g., alcohols such as methanol, ethanol and propanol, organic acids such as acetic acid) in the presence of an aqueous solution of a mineral acid (e.g., hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid) or a metal hydroxide (e.g., sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide) at a treatment temperature of about 15.degree. to 130.degree.

One carbon atom is also added to the carboxyl group of (VII-1) to (VII-5) by the following method: ##STR91## wherein H represents the heterocyclic moiety of (VII-1) to (VII-10); L represents a leaving group. In this method, the carboxyl group is first reduced to yield an alcohol. This reduction is carried out by converting the carboxyl group to a reactive derivative thereof (acid halide, mixed acid anhydride, active ester, ester etc.) and then treated at a reaction temperature of about 0.degree. to 100.degree. C. in a solvent (ether such as tetrahydrofuran or dimethoxyethane) in the presence of a reducing agent (sodium borohydride, lithium aluminum hydride). The hydroxyl group of the thus-obtained alcohol is converted to a leaving group (--OH.fwdarw.--L). The leaving group L is preferably a halogen (chlorine, bromine, iodine etc.), a C.sub.1-4 alkanesulfonyloxy group (e.g., methanesulfonyloxy group, ethanesulfonyloxy group) or a C.sub.6-10 arylsulfonyloxy group (e.g., benzenesulfonyloxy group, p-toluenesulfonyloxy group). This converting reaction is normally carried out by a treatment with, for example, thionyl chloride, thionyl bromide, methanesulfonyl chloride or benzenesulfonyl chloride in a solvent (e.g., benzene, toluene, dichloromethane, 1,2-dichloroethane, chloroform, tetrahydrofuran, ethyl acetate) at a treatment temperature of about 0.degree. to 100.degree.

C. The resulting nitrile compound is hydrolyzed to carboxylic acids (VII-6) to (VII-10). This hydrolyzing reaction is normally carried out in a solvent (alcohol such as methanol, ethanol or propanol, or acetic acid) in the presence of an aqueous solution of a mineral acid (e.g., hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid) or a metal hydroxide (e.g., sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide) at a treatment temperature of about 15.degree. to 130.degree. C. Compounds (VII-6) and (VII-7) can also be produced by the method described by H. Kohl et al. in the Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Vol. 62, page 2028 (published 1973) or a method based thereon.

This method can, for example, be carried out by the above-described method used to convert (I.sup.a) to (I.sup.b) or a method based thereon. When an ester is used as the starting material, esters of (VII-11) to (VII-14) are produced, which may be hydrolyzed as described in Method 2-A) to carboxylic acids. Compound (VII-11) or an ester thereof can also be produced using a reducing agent such as lithium aluminum hydride. This reaction is normally carried out in a solvent (ethers such as tetrahydrofuran, dioxane and dimethoxyethane) at a temperature of about 0.degree. to 100.degree. C.
4) A compound represented by the general formula: ##STR93## wherein the symbols have the same definitions as above, can be produced from, for example, compound (VII-2A) by the following method: ##STR94## wherein R' represents a lower alkyl group (e.g. methyl, ethyl, etc.), the other symbols having the same definitions as above.
In this method, (VII-2A) is first reduced, at the positions 1 and 4, to a 1,4-dihydro derivative. This reducing reaction is carried out using a reducing agent such as sodium borohydride or sodium cyanoborohydride. The reaction is normally carried out in a solvent (alcohols such as methanol, ethanol and propanol, ethers such as tetrahydrofuran, dioxane and dimethoxyethane) at a temperature of about 15.degree. to 100.degree. C. The position 1 of this 1,4-dihydro derivative is then alkylated by a reaction with an alkylating agent represented by the general formula R'--L (the symbols have the same definitions as above). The alkylating reaction is normally carried out in a solvent (ethers such as tetrahydrofuran, dioxane and dioxane, amides such as dimethylformamide), preferably in the presence of a base (e.g., sodium hydride, potassium hydride, sodium methylate, sodium ethylate, sodium amide, potassium t-butoxide). The reaction is normally carried out at a temperature of about -10.degree. to 100.degree. C. The thus-obtained 1-alkyl-1,4-dihydro derivative is reduced to a 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro derivative (VII-15A). This reducing reaction is carried out using a reducing agent such as sodium cyanoborohydride, sodium borohydride or lithium aluminum hydride. The reaction is normally carried out in a solvent at a temperature of about 0.degree. to 100.degree. C. Varying depending on the kinds of reducing agent and substrate used, it is possible to use the same solvents as used in the above-described reducing reaction of (VII-2A) to 1,4-dihydro derivative. Conversion of (VII-15A) to (VII-15) is achieved by a hydrolyzing reaction as described in Method 2-A).
5) Compounds represented by the general formulas: ##STR95## wherein the symbols have the same definitions as above, can be produced from the above-mentioned compounds (VII-11) to (VII-15) by adding one carbon atom. This method can be carried out in the same manner as the above-described Method 2-A) or 2-B) or a method based thereon. (VII-16) and (VII19) can also be produced by the following method: ##STR96## wherein X.sup.0 represents --NR.sup.1a -- (R.sup.1a represents the same meaning as defined hereinabove) or --O--; R" and R'" independently represent a protecting group for the carboxyl group; the other symbols have the same definitions as above.
With respect to the above formula, the carboxyl group protecting groups R" and R'" is exemplified by ester-forming protecting groups such as methyl, ethyl, methoxyethyl, methoxyethoxymethyl, benzyloxymethyl, tert-butyl, benzyl, p-methoxybenzyl, p-nitrobenzyl, o-nitrobenzyl, benzhydryl, trityl, 2,2,2-trichloroethyl, 2-trimethylsilylethyl and allyl, and silyl-ester-forming protective groups such as trimethylsilyl, triethylsilyl, tert-butyldimethylsilyl, isopropyldimethylsilyl and dimethylphenylsilyl. In the above method, the position 3 of (VII-11A) or (VII-13A) is first alkylated with an alkylating agent represented by the general formula R'"OCOCH.sub.2 --L (the symbols have the same definitions as above). This reaction can be carried out under the same conditions as for the position 1 alkylation in 4) above. The resulting alkyl derivative, after removal of the protecting group R", may be decarboxylated to (VII-16A) or (VII-19A). Varying depending on the type of protecting group used, the protecting group R" can be removed by hydrolysis by the method described in Method 2-A) above when R" is a lower alkyl group such as methyl or ethyl. In this case, when R'" is similarly a lower alkyl group such as methyl or ethyl, it may also be removed to leave and isolate a dicarboxylic acid. While heating, the R"-removed carboxylic acid may be further decarboxylated to yield compound (VII-16A) or (VII-19A). In the case of a dicarboxylic acid wherein both R" and R'" have been removed, this decarboxylation immediately results in the production of (VII-16) or (VII-19). This decarboxylation is normally carried out in a solvent (e.g., pyridine, picoline, benzene, toluene, dimethylsulfoxide, dimethylformamide, acetic acid) at a temperature of about 40.degree. to 200.degree. C. The thus-obtained compounds (VII-16A) and (VII-19A) can be converted to compounds (VII-16) and (VII-19), respectively, by removing their R'" by a deprotecting reaction according to the type thereof.

In the above method, compound (S-a) is first intramolecularly cyclized to compound (S-b). This cyclization is carried out by a reaction generally known as Dieckmann Condensation [J. P. Schaefer et al.: Organic Reactions, Vol. 15, pp. 1-203 (published 1967)] in a solvent inert to the reaction (e.g., tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, dimethoxyethane) in the presence of a base (e.g., sodium hydride, sodium ethoxide, sodium methoxide, sodium amide, potassium tert-butoxide). The mount of base used is not less than 1 mol equivalent, preferably 1.5 to 3 mol equivalents per mol of (S-a), reaction temperature being between about 0.degree. C. and 130.degree. C. Varying depending on type of starting material compound, reaction temperature and other factors, reaction time is normally about 0.5 to 5 hours.
The protected carboxyl group of compound (S-b) is removed to yield ketone compound (S-c). This reaction can be carried out under various sets of conditions depending on type of the protecting group P.sup.1 used; when P.sup.1 is a lower alkyl group such as methyl or ethyl, acidic or alkaline hydrolytic conditions are preferably used, under which decarboxylation usually takes place simultaneously with the removal of P.sup.1, yielding compound (S-c). This reaction is carried out in a solvent (e.g., alcohols such as methanol, ethanol and propanol, ethers such as tetrahydrofuran, dioxane and dimethoxyethane, and mixtures thereof) under alkaline conditions with an alkali such as sodium hydroxide or barium hydroxide or an alkaline earth metal hydroxide or under acidic conditions with an inorganic acid such as hydrochloric acid, bromide acid or sulfuric acid or with an organic acid such as formic acid or acetic acid, or a mixture of these acids.

This reducing reaction is carried out by, for example, the method described by C. A. Buehler et al. in the Survey of Organic Syntheses, pp. 423-424 (1970, published by Wiley-Interscience). For example, a reducing reaction with zinc powder is conducted under acidic conditions (e.g., in acetic acid solvent) or basic conditions (e.g., in a mixed solvent of ethanol and aqueous ammonia in the presence of ammonium acetate).

Such salts include those with inorganic acids (e.g., hydrochloric acid, phosphoric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid) and those with organic acids (e.g., acetic acid, formic acid, propionic acid, fumaric acid, maleic acid, succinic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, maleic acid, oxalic acid, benzoic acid, methanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfonic acid). When these compounds have an acidic group such as --COOH, they may form a salt with an inorganic base (e.g., alkali metal or alkaline earth metals such as sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium, ammonia) or with an organic base (e.g., tri-C.sub.1-3 alkylamines such as triethylamine).
The compounds obtained by the above methods may be purified and collected by known methods of purification such as concentration, liquid phase conversion, re-dissolution, solvent extraction, column chromatography, crystallization and recrystallization, or may be used in the form of a mixture as such for the subsequent reaction.
When the starting material compound used in the above reactions contains an amino group, a carboxyl group or a hydroxyl group as a substituent, these groups may have incorporated a protecting group generally used in peptide chemistry and other fields; the desired compound can be obtained by removing the protecting group as necessary after completion of the reaction.
Amino group protecting groups include C.sub.1-6 alkylcarbonyl groups which may have a substituent (e.g., formyl, methylcarbonyl, ethylcarbonyl), phenylcarbonyl groups, C.sub.1-6 alkyl-oxycarbonyl groups (e.g., methoxycarbonyl, ethoxycarbonyl), phenyloxycarbonyl groups (e.g., benzoxycarbonyl), C.sub.7-10 aralkyl-carbonyl groups (e.g., benzyloxycarbonyl), trityl and phthaloyl. Substituents for these protecting groups include halogen atoms (e.g., fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine), C.sub.1-6 alkyl-carbonyl groups (e.g., methylcarbonyl, ethylcarbonyl, butylcarbonyl) and nitro groups, the number of substituents being 1 to 3.
Carboxyl group protecting groups include C.sub.1-6 alkyl groups which may have a substituent (e.g., methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, i-propyl, n-butyl, tert-butyl), phenyl, trityl and silyl. Substituents for these protecting groups include halogen atoms (e.g., fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine), C.sub.1-6 alkylcarbonyl groups (e.g., formyl, methylcarbonyl, ethylcarbonyl, butylcarbonyl) and nitro groups, the number of substituents being 1 to 3.
Hydroxyl group protecting groups include C.sub.1-6 alkyl groups which may have a substituent (e.g., methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, i-propyl, n-butyl, tert-butyl), phenyl groups, C.sub.7-10 aralkyl groups (e.g., benzyl), C.sub.1-6 alkylcarbonyl groups (e.g., formyl, methylcarbonyl, ethylcarbonyl), phenyloxycarbonyl groups (e.g., benzoxycarbonyl), C.sub.7-10 aralkyl-carbonyl groups (e.g., benzyloxycarbonyl), pyranyl groups, furanyl groups and silyl groups. Substituents for these protecting groups include halogen atoms (e.g., fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine), C.sub.1-6 alkyl groups, phenyl groups, C.sub.7-10 aralkyl groups and nitro groups, the number of substituents being 1 to 4.
Protecting groups can be removed by known methods or those based thereon, including treatments with acids, bases, reducing agents, ultraviolet rays, hydrazine, phenylhydrazine, sodium N-methyldithiocarbamate, tetrabutylammonium fluoride, palladium acetate etc.
The thus-obtained compound (I) and (I') can be isolated and purified by ordinary means of separation such as recrystallization, distillation and chromatography. When compound (I) and (I') is obtained as a free form, it can be converted to a salt by a known method or a method based thereon (e.g., neutralization). Contrarily, when it is obtained as a salt, it can be converted to a free form or another salt by a known method or a method based thereon.
When compound (I) and (I') has a chiral center(s), it can be resolved to d- and l-configurations by conventional methods of optical resolution.
The compound (I) and (I') or a salt thereof is low in acute toxicity (Mice are dosed at 300 mg/kg, p.o. and 100 mg/kg, i.p. for observation of acute toxic symptoms or autonomic effects during the subsequent 72 hours; the response is no effect) and chronic toxicity, thus being a medicinally useful and safe substance.
The compounds (I) and (I') or a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof (e.g., the above-mentioned salts with inorganic or organic bases and salts with inorganic or organic acids) exhibit excellent inhibitory action against acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyl transferase (ACAT), and is pharmaceutically safe with low acute and chronic toxicities. ACAT, an enzyme involved in the higher fatty acid esterification of cholesterol in cells, is known to play a key role in cholesterol ester absorption in the digestive tract and cholesterol ester accumulation in various peripheral organs and cells (e.g., arterial walls, macrophages). ACAT-inhibiting substances can therefore inhibit intestinal absorption of food cholesterols to suppress blood cholesterol level rise and suppress intracellular cholesterol ester accumulation in arteriosclerosis lesions, thus preventing progress of atherosclerosis. The objected compounds or salt thereof of the present invention, exhibiting such excellent ACAT-inhibitory action and excellent cholesterol-lowering activity, is therefore useful as a safe preventive/therapeutic agent for hypercholesterolemia, atheromatous arteriosclerosis and diseases associated therewith (e.g. ischemic diseases such as myocardial infarction and cerebrovascular diseases such as cerebral infarction and cerebral stroke) in mammals (e.g., mice, rats, hamsters, rabbits, cats, dogs, horses, bovines, sheep, monkeys, humans).
Also, the compounds (I) and (I') or salt thereof include those which exhibit suppressing action against lipid peroxide production (antioxidant action) (e.g., compound of the above formula wherein at least one of rings A, B and Ar is a benzene ring substituted by an amino or hydroxyl group which may be substituted by a C.sub.1-4 alkyl group). Lipid peroxidation in vivo is known to be closely associated with the onset of arteriosclerosis and ischemic diseases in the brain and cardiovascular system. Accordingly, the objected compound (I) and (I') or salt thereof, which exhibits both ACAT inhibitory and antioxidant actions, is highly useful as a pharmaceutical, because it can prevent and treat various vascular lesions due to these changes for both blood cholesterol and peroxide lipid.
When the compounds (I) and (I') or a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof is used as a pharmaceutical as described above, it can be orally or non-orally administered in the form of powder, fine subtilaes, granules, tablets, capsules, injectable solutions or other dosage forms by conventional methods in a mixture with appropriate pharmacologically acceptable carriers, excipients (e.g., starch, lactose, sucrose, calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate), binders (e.g., starch, gum arabic, carboxymethyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, crystalline cellulose, alginic acid, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidone), lubricants (e.g., stearic acid, magnesium stearate, calcium stearate, talc), disintegrating agents (e.g., carboxymethyl cellulose calcium, talc), diluents (e.g., physiological saline) and other additives. However, for inhibiting cholesterol absorption, oral administration is preferred. Varying depending on type of the objected compound or salt thereof, route of administration, symptoms, patient's age etc., daily dose is about 0.005 to 50 mg, preferably about 0.05 to 10 mg, more preferably about 0.2 to 4 mg per kg body weight for oral administration in adult hypercholesterolemia patients. This daily dose is preferably administered in one to three portions.
The compounds (I) and (I') of the present invention or a salt thereof exhibit excellent ACAT-inhibitory action and excellent cholesterol-lowering activity. The results of a pharmacologic test thereof are given below.
The following data of (I) to (III) are the experimental data showing the pharmacological efficacy of the compound (I) and (I') or salts thereof of the present invention.
(I) Inhibitory action against acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyl transferase (ACAT)
Method of Experiment
An ACAT enzyme preparation was prepared from a small intestine mucosal microsome fraction of a 6-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rat, previously fasted for 20 hours, in accordance with the method described by Heider et al. in the Journal of Lipid Research, Vol. 24, page 1127 (1982).
ACAT activity was determined by measuring the amount of labeled cholesterol ester produced from [1-.sup.14 C]-oleoyl-CoA and endogenous cholesterol, in accordance with the method of Helgerud et al. [Journal of Lipid Research, Vol. 22, page 271 (1981)].
Results
(1) Table 1 shows data on the inhibitory rate (%) of formation of labeled cholesterol ester inhibitory rate (%), as an index of ACAT-inhibitory action, obtained when the compound was added at 10.sup.-6 M.
Table 1 shows that compound (I) or a salt thereof exhibits excellent ACAT-inhibitory action.
(II) Hypocholesterolemic activity (Cholesterol-lowering activity)
Method of Experiment
Groups of 6 ICR mice (2 subgroups of 3 mice) were made hypercholesterolemic by being fed a high cholesterol-cholic acid diet for 7 days and administered with test compounds orally on the last two days. One-half of the total does was given on day 6 followed by the other half on day 7. After fasting overnight (16 hours after the last dose), the animals were sacrificed and sera were collected together for the each subgroup for measuring the levels of cholesterol and heparin precipitating lipoproteins (HPL). Both cholesterol and HPL levels were measured with autonalyzer by the enzymatic CHOD-PAP method for the former and by the turbidimetric method of Shurr et. al. [in C. E. Dau ed. Atherosclerosis Drug Discovery, Plenum Publishing, New York, pp. 215-229 & 231-249, 1976.] for the latter.
Table 2 shows reduction % (compared to control groups) of cholesterol and HPL.
Results
From Table 2, it is clear that compound (I) or a salt thereof exhibits excellent hypocholesterolemic activity
Also, the compounds (I) and (I') and a salt thereof according to the invention has excellent tachykinin receptor antagonizing activity, particularly potent antagonistic activity against substance P (hereinafter sometimes referred to briefly as SP), and is low in acute toxicity and chronic toxicity, thus being a medicinally useful and safe substance.
Substance P (SP) is a neuropeptide discovered in an equine intestinal canal extract in 1931 and its structure, consisting of 11 amino acids, was established in 1971. SP is broadly distributed in the central and peripheral nervous systems and, in addition to being a primary sensory neurotransmitter, has various physiological activities such as vasodilating activity augmentation of vascular permeability, smooth muscle contracting activity, neuronal excitatory activity, sialogogue activity, facilitation of micturition and immunomodulatory effect. It is known particularly that SP released by a pain impulse at the terminal of the cornu posterius of the spinal cord transmits pain information to secondary neurons and that SP released from the peripheral nerve terminal induces an inflammatory response in the nociceptive field. Moreover, SP is suspected to be involved in Alzheimer type dementia. Therefore, the objected compounds or salts thereof having potent SP receptor antagonizing activity are of value as a safe prophylactic/therapeutic drug for pain, inflammation, allergy airway diseases such as asthma and cough, disturbances of micturition such as pollakiuria and incontinence dementia in mammalian animals (e.g. mouse, rat, hamster, rabbit, cat, dog, bovine, sheep, monkey, man, etc.).
The dosage is dependent on the species of the objected compound or salts thereof, route of administration, disease condition, and patient's age and other background factors. However, for oral administration to an adult patient, for instance, a daily dose of about 0.005 to 50 mg, preferably about 0.05 to 10 mg, more preferably about 0.2 to 4 mg, per kg body weight is administered in 1 to 3 divided doses.
(III) Radioligand receptor binding inhibitory assay using receptor from human lymphoblast cells (IM-9)
The method of A. Margaret et al. [Molecular Pharmacology 42, 458 (1992)] was modified and used. The receptor was prepared from human lymphoblast cells (IM-9). IM-9 cells were grown in 175 cm.sup.2 tissue culture flasks (100 ml.times.10) at a density approximately 2.times.10.sup.5 /ml of RPMI 1640 with L-glutamine, 10% (V/V) heat inactivated fetal calf serum, penicillin (100 u/ml), and streptomycin (100 .mu.g/ml) at 37.degree. C. in 5% CO.sub.2 /95% air for 3 days. IM-9 cells were obtained by centrifugation at 500.times.g for 5 minutes at 5.degree. C. The pellet obtained was washed once with phosphate buffer (Flow Laboratories, CAT No. 28-103-05), homogenized using Polytron homogenizer (Kinematika, Germany) in 30 ml of 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer containing 120 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 2 .mu.g/ml phenylmethyl sulfonyl fluoride, and 1 mM ethylenediamine tetra-acetic acid and then centrifuged at 40,000.times.g for 20 minutes. The residue was washed twice with 30 ml of buffer described above, and preserved frozen (-80.degree. C.).
The above specimen was suspended in a reaction buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.4), 0.02% bovine serum albumin, 1 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, 2 .mu.g/ml chymostatin, 40 .mu.g/ml bacitracin, 3 mM manganese chloride) at a protein concentration of 1.5 mg/ml and a 100 .mu.l portion of the suspension was used in the reaction. After addition of the sample and 125I-BHSP (0.46 KBq), the reaction was conducted in 0.2 ml of reaction buffer at 25.degree. C. for 30 minutes. The amount of nonspecific binding was determined by adding substance P at a final concentration of 2.times.10.sup.-6 M. After the reaction, using a cell harvester (290PHD, Cambridge Technology, Inc., England), rapid filtration was carried out through a glass filter (GF/B, Whatman, U.S.A.) to stop the reaction. After washing three times with 250 .mu.l of 50 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.4) containing 0.02% bovine serum albumin, the radioactivity remaining on the filter was measured with a gamma counter. Before use, the filter was immersed in 0.1% polyethyleneimine for 24 hours and air-dried.
The antagonistic activity of each test substance, in terms of the concentration necessary to cause 50% inhibition [IC.sub.50 ] under the above conditions, was expressed in nM (Table 3).
It is apparent from Table 3 that the objected compound and salts thereof of the present invention have excellent substance P receptor antagonizing activity.
