Description
The present invention relates to 2,9-disubstituted purin-6-ones, a process for their preparation and their use in medicaments, in particular for the treatment of inflammations, thromboembolic and cardiovascular diseases and diseases of the urogenital system.
Some 2-phenyl-substituted 6H-purin-6-ones are known from the publications J. Pharm. Sci., 74 (10), 1082-85, 1985 and J. Hetero. Chem. 19 (1), 33-40, 1982.
1H-9-Methyl-substituted purines and oxazolopynmidines have furthermore been described in this context cf. Khim.-Farm. Zh. 8(4), 26-8, 1974 and Bull. Chem. Soc. Jap. 43 (12), 3509-13 (1970)!.
9-Substituted hypoxanthines are furthermore known from JP 47 021 434.
Moreover, purine derivatives having a regulating action on plant growth and 2-substituted 9-(4methylbenzyl)-9H-purines having an anti-rhinovirus action are known cf. Egypt. J. Chem., Vol. Data 1990, 33 (3), 243-53, 1991 and J. Med. Chem. 32 (1), 218-24, 1989!.
Phosphodiesterases (PDEs) play an essential role in the regulation of the intracellular cGMP and cAMP level. Of the phosphodiesterase isoenzyme groups PDE I to PDE V described to date nomenclature according to Beavo and Reifsnyder (cf. Beavo, J. A. and Reifsnyder, D.H.: Trends in Pharmacol. Sci 11, 150-155 (1990))!, the Ca-calmodulin-activated PDE I, the cGMP-stimulatable PDE II and the cGMP-specific PDE V are essentially responsible for the metabolism of cGMP. Because of the different distribution of these cGMP-metabolizing PDEs in tissue, selective inhibitors should raise the cGMP level in the corresponding tissue depending on the tissue distribution of the corresponding isoenzyme. This can lead to a specific antiaggregatory, antispastic, vasodilating, antiarrhythmic and/or antiinflammatory action.
The present invention thus relates to 2,9-disubstituted purin-6-ones of the general formula (I) ##STR1## in which

are first converted, by reaction with compounds of the general formula (III )
in which

and the substituents R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 are introduced or derivatized by acylation, oxidation and/or azide exchange.
The process according to the invention can be illustrated by way of example by the following equation: ##STR7##
Inert organic solvents which do not change under the reaction conditions are suitable for the first step of the process. These include, preferably, ethers, such as, for example, diethyl ether, dioxane, tetrahydrofuran or glycol mono- or dimethyl ether, halogenated hydrocarbons, such as methylene chloride, chloroform or carbon tetrachloride, dichloroethylene or trichloroethylene, ethyl acetate, toluene, acetonitrile, hexamethylphosphoric acid triamide, pyridine and acetone. It is of course possible to employ mixtures of the solvents. Tetrahydrofuran, toluene or pyridine are particularly preferred.
Suitable bases are in general alkali metal hydrides or alcoholates, such as, for example, sodium hydride or potassium tert-butylate, or cyclic arnines, such as, for example, piperidine, pyridine or dimethylarninopyridine, or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkylamines, such as, for example, triethylamine. Sodium hydride, pyridine or dirnethylaminopyridine are preferred.
The base is in general employed in an amount of 1 mol to 4 mol, preferably 1.2 mol to 3 mol, in each case per mole of the compounds of the general formula (II).
The reaction temperature can in general be varied within a relatively wide range. The reaction is in general carried out in a range from -20.degree. C. to 200.degree. C., preferably from 0.degree. C. to 25.degree. C.
In one variant, the reaction is carried out in pyridine, to which a catalytic amount of DMAP is added. If appropriate, toluene can also be added.
Suitable solvents for the cyclization are the customary organic solvents. These include, preferably, alcohols, such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, isopropanol or butanol, or ethers, such as tetaahydrofirn or dioxane, or dimethylformamide or dimethyl sulphoxide. Alcohols, such as methanol, ethanol, propanol or isopropanol, are particularly preferably used. It is also possible to employ mixures of the solvents mentioned.
Suitable bases for the cyclization are the customary inorganic bases. These include, preferably, alkali metal hydroxides or alkaline earth metal hydroxides, such as, for example, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide or barium hydroxide, or alkali metal carbonates, such as sodium carbonate or potassium carbonate or sodium bicarbonate, or alkali metal alcoholates, such as sodium -methanolate, sodium ethanolate, potassium methanolate, potassium ethanolate or potassium tert-butanolate. Potassium carbonate and sodium hydroxide are particularly preferred.
In carrying out the cyclization, the base is in general employed in an amount of 2 to 6 mol, preferably 3 to 5 mol, per mole of the compounds of the formula (IV).
The cyclization is in general carried out in a temperature range from 0.degree. C. to 160.degree. C., preferably at the boiling point of the particular solvent.
The cyclization is in general carried out under normal pressure. However, it is also possible to carry out the process under increased pressure or under reduced pressure (for example in a range from 0.5 to 5 bar).
The reaction with alkylsulphonic acid chlorides, starting from the corresponding free hydroxy compounds, is carried out in one of the abovementioned solvents and one of the bases, preferably with methylene chloride and triethylamine, in a temperature range from -20.degree. C. to +20.degree. C., preferably 0.degree. C., under normal pressure.

C. to +120.degree. C., preferably 100.degree. C., under normal pressure.
The ketones are prepared by known methods (Swern oxidation) starting from the corresponding hydroxy compounds.
The enantiomerically pure compounds are accessible by customary methods, for example by chromatography of the racemic compounds of the general formula (I) on chiral phases.
The compounds of the general formula (III) are known.
The compounds of the general formula (IV) are new in most cases and can be prepared, for example, as described above.
The compounds of the general formula (II) are new in most cases and can be prepared, for example, by a procedure in which
2-amino-2-cyanoacetamide of the formula (V) ##STR8## is reacted with compounds of the general formula (VI) ##STR9## in which
R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 have the abovementioned meanings,
in inert solvents in the presence of triethyl orthoformate.
Suitable solvents for the individual steps of the processes are the customary organic solvents which do not change under the reaction conditions. These include, preferably, ethers, such as diethyl ether, dioxane, tetrahydrofiran or glycol dimethyl ether, or hydrocarbons, such as benzene, toluene, xylene, hexane, cyclohexane or petroleum fractions, or halogenated hydrocarbons, such as methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, dichloroethylene, trichloroethylene or chlorobenzene, or ethyl acetate, dimethylformamide, hexamethylphosphoric acid triamide, acetonitrile, acetone or dimethoxyethane. It is also possible to use mixtures of the solvents mentioned. Acetonitrile is particularly preferred.
The process according to the invention is in general carried out in a temperature range from 0.degree. C. to +180.degree. C., preferably from +30.degree. C. to +150.degree. C.
These process steps according to the invention are in general carried out under normal pressure. However, it is also possible for them to be carried out under increased pressure or under reduced pressure (for example in a range from 0.5 to 5 bar).
The compound of the formula (V) is known cf. Logemann, G. Shaw, Chemistry and Industry, 1980 (13), 541-542!.
The amines of the general formula (VI) are known in some cases or are new, and can then be prepared by known methods cf L. R. Krepski et al., Synthesis, 1986, 301-303!.
The compounds of the general formula (I) according to the invention display an unforeseeable valuable pharmacological action spectrum.
They inhibit either one or more of the cGMP-metabolizing phosphodiesterases (PDE I, PDE II and PDE V). This leads to a differentiated increase in cGMP. An increase in the cGMP level can lead to an antithrombotic, vasodilatory and/or antiarrhythmic action. The selectivity is also determined by the distribution of the isoenzymes in the tissue.
The compounds according to the invention firthermore intensify the action of substances, such as, for example, EDRF (endothelium-derived relaxing factor) and ANP (atrial natriuretic peptide), which increase the cGMP level.
They can therefore be employed in medicaments for the treatment of inflammatory diseases, such as, for example, asthma, inflammatory dermatoses, for the treatment of high blood pressure, stable and unstable angina, peripheral and cardiac vascular diseases and of arrhythmias, for the treatment of thromboembolic diseases and ischaemias, such as myocardial infarction, cerebral stroke, transitory and ischaemic attacks, angina pectoris, peripheral circulatory disturbances, prevention of restenoses, such as after thrombolysis treatments, percutaneous transluminal angioplasties (PTA) and bypass, percutaneous translumninal coronary angioplasties (PTCA), bypass, septic shock and diseases of the urogenital system,. such as, for example, prostate hypertrophy, impotence and incontinence.
Activitv of the phosphodiesterases (PDEs)
The cGMP-stimulatable PDE II, the cGMP-inhibitable PDE III and the cAMP-specific PDE IV were isolated from either porcine or bovine myocardium. The Ca-calmodulin-stimulatable PDE I was isolated from the porcine aorta or porcine brain. The cGMP-specific PDE V was obtained from the porcine small intestine, porcine aorta and/or human blood platelets. Purification was carried out by anion exchange chromatography over MonoQ Phaacia essentially by the method of M. Hoey and Miles D. Houslay, Biochemical Pharmacology, Vol. 40, 193-202 (1990).
The enzyme activity is determined in a test batch of 100 .mu.l in 20 mM Tris/HCl buffer of pH 7.5 which comprises 5 mM MgCl.sub.2, 0.1 mg/ml of bovine serum albumin and either 800 Bq of .sup.3 HcAMP or .sup.3 HcGMP. The final concentration of the corresponding nucleotides is 10.sup.-6 mol/l. The reaction is started by addition of the enzyme and the amount of enzyme is chosen such that about 50% of the substrate is reacted during the incubation time of 30 minutes. To test the cGMP-stimulatable PDE II, .sup.3 HcAMP is used as the substrate and 10.sup.-6 mol/l of non-labelled cGMP is added to the batch. To test the Ca-calmodulin-dependent PDE I, 1 .mu.M CaCl.sub.2 and 0.1 .mu.M calmodulin are also added to the reaction batch. The reaction is stopped by addition of 100 .mu.l of acetonitrile which comprises 1 mnM cAMP and 1 mM AMP. 100 .mu.l of the reaction batch are separated on the HPLC column and the cleavage products are determined quantitatively "online" with a flow-through scintillation counter. The substance concentration at which the rate of reaction is reduced by 50% is measured.
The compounds were investigated for antihypertensive activity on anaesthetized pigs.
The antihypertensive activity was measured after intravenous adminitration to SHR rats.
To determine the cyclic nucleotides, heart and aorta tissue was removed and deep frozen immediately. The samples were powdered under liquid N.sub.2 and extracted with 70% ethanol and the content of cGMP and cAMP was determined with commercial radioimmunoassays (Amersham).
The erection-inducing action was measured on anaesthetized rabbits. (C. G. Stief et al. World Journal Urology 1990, pages 233-236).
The substances were administered in dosages of 0.1 to 10 mg/kg either directly into the corpus cavernosum or intraduodenally, rectally, orally, tnansdernally or intravenously.
The new active compounds can be converted in a known manner into the customary formulations, such as tablets, coated tablets, pills, granules, aerosols, syrups, emulsions, suspensions and solutions, using inert, non-toxic, pharmaceutically suitable carriers or solvents. The therapeutically active compound should in each case be present here in a concentration of about 0.5 to 90% by weight of the total mixture, i.e. in amounts which are sufficient to achieve the stated dosage range.
The formulations are prepared, for example, by extending the active compounds with solvents and/or carriers, if appropriate using emulsifying agents and/or dispersing agents, it being possible, for example in the case of the use of water as a diluent, for organic solvents to be used as auxiliary solvents if appropriate.
The formulations are administered in the customary manner, preferably orally, parenterally, transdermally, perlingually or intravenously.
In general, it has proved advantageous in the case of intravenous administration to administer amounts of about 0.01 to 10 mg/kg, preferably about 0.1 to 10 mg/kg, of body weight to achieve effective results.
Nevertheless, it may be necessary to deviate from the amounts mentioned, and in particular as a finction of the body weight or the nature of the administration route, of the behaviour of the individual towards the medicament, of the nature of the formulation thereof and of the time or interval at which administration takes place. Thus, in some cases it may be sufficient to manage with less than the abovementioned minimum amount, while in other cases the upper limit mentioned must be exceeded In the case of administration of relatively large amounts, it may be advisable to divide these into several individual doses over the course of the day.
