[0008] Immunosuppressive agents are widely used as a treatment for autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, nephritis, osteoarthritis of and systemic lupus erythematosus, chronic inflammatory diseases such as inflammatory bowel disease, and allergic diseases such as asthma and dermatitis. Progress in medicine has led to the rise in the number of tissue and organ transplantations performed each year. In such a situation of modern medicine, having as much control as possible over the rejection following transplantation is a key to a successful transplantation. Immunosuppressive agents also play a significant role in this aspect.
[0009] In organ transplantations, antimetabolites, such as azathioprine and mycophenolate mofetil, calcineurin inhibitors, such as cyclosporin A and tacrolimus, and corticosteroid, such as prednisolone are typically used. However, some of these drugs are not effective enough while others require continuous monitoring of the blood drug level to avoid renal failure and other serious side effects. Thus, none of conventional immunosuppressive agents are satisfactory in view of efficacy and potential side effects.
[0010] Multiple drug combined-therapy, in which different immunosuppressive drugs with different mechanisms of action are used, is becoming increasingly common for the purposes of alleviating the side effects of the drugs and achieving sufficient immunosuppressive effects. Also, development of new types of immunosuppressive agents that have completely different mechanisms of action is sought.
[0011] In an effort to respond to such demands, the present inventors conducted a search for new types of immunosuppressive agents with main interest in 2-amino-1-ethanol derivatives.
[0012] While the use of 2-amino-1,3-propanediol derivatives as immunosuppressive agents has been described in Patent Articles No. 1 and No. 2, it has not been previously known that 2-amino-1-ethanol derivatives bearing a diaryl sulfide group or a diaryl ether group, the subject compounds of the present invention, exhibit significant immunosuppressive effects. Although Patent Articles No. 3, No. 4 and No. 5 disclose amino alcohol derivatives that act as immunosuppressive agents, these compounds have different structures from the compounds of the present invention.
DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION
[0013] Accordingly, it is an objective of the present invention to provide an amino alcohol derivative that has significant immunosuppressive effects but causes less side effects.
[0014] In the course of studies on immunosuppressive agents that act by different mechanism of action than antimetabolites and calcineurin inhibitors, the present inventors discovered that novel diaryl sulfide- or diaryl ether-containing amino alcohol derivatives that have a different structure from known immunosuppressors exhibit strong immunosuppressive effects. Specifically, the compounds each include, at the para-position of one of the two aryl groups, a carbon chain with an amino alcohol group and also include a particular substituent at the meta-position of the other of the aryl groups. This discovery led the present inventors to devise the present invention.
[0015] The present invention thus is an immunosuppressive agent containing as an active ingredient at least one of an amino alcohol derivative, and an optical isomer, a pharmaceutically acceptable salt and a hydrate thereof, the amino alcohol derivative represented by the following general formula (1):
[0016]

[0168] The acidolysis of the compound of the general formula (32) is carried out at 0° C. to room temperature in an inorganic or organic acid, such as acetic acid, hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, methanesulfonic acid, or trifluoroacetic acid, or in a mixture with an organic solvent, such as methanol, ethanol, THF, 1,4-dioxane, or ethyl acetate. The hydrolysis of the compound of the general formula (15) is carried out at a temperature of 0° C. to refluxing temperature, preferably at 80° C. to 100° C., in the presence of a base, such as aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, or lithium hydroxide, and in a reaction solvent such as methanol, ethanol, 1,4-dioxane, DMSO, DMF, or THF.
[0169] Of the compounds represented by each general formula, those in which X is SO or SO2 can also be obtained by oxidation of the corresponding compounds in which X is S.
[0170] This reaction uses a reaction solvent such as 1,4-dioxane, DMSO, DMF, THF, methylene chloride, or chloroform, along with an oxidizing agent such as potassium permanganate, meta-chloroperbenzoic acid, or aqueous hydrogen peroxide, and icarried out at 0° C. to refluxing temperature and, preferably, at room temperature.

This mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour and the solvent was removed. The resulting residue was purified on a silica gel column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate=10:1) to give the ethyl ester product as a colorless oil (3.89 g).

[0503] EtPh3PI (906 mg) was dissolved in THF (20 mL). To this solution, LDA (2.20 mL), chilled to −78° C., was added under atmosphere of argon gas and the mixture was stirred for 10 min. Subsequently, the mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 5 min and was then chilled again to −78° C., followed by the dropwise addition of a THF solution (10 mL) of the compound of Example 225 (1.00 g). The mixture was further stirred at −78° C. for 1 hour and at room temperature for 1 hour. Following addition of water, the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate and the extract was washed with a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride. The organic phase was then dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate. The solvent was removed and the residue was purified on a silica gel column chromatography (hexane:ethyl acetate=4:1) to give the desired product as a yellow oil (172 mg).

EXEMPLARY EXPERIMENT
Inhibitory Effects of Test Compounds on Host vs Graft Reaction in Mice
[0508] This experiment was performed according to the method described in Transplantation 55(3) (1993): 578-591. Spleens were collected from 7 to 12 week old male BALB/c mice (available from CLEA JAPAN Inc., CHARLES RIVER JAPAN Inc., or JAPAN SLC Inc.). The spleens were placed in an RPMI-1640 medium (SIGMA, GIBCO INDUSTRIES Inc., or IWAKI GLASS Co., Ltd.) and were gently pressed between two slide glasses and then passed through a cell strainer (70 μm, Falcon) to form a cell suspension. The suspension was then centrifuged and the supernatant was discarded. An ammonium chloride-Tris isotonic buffer was added to the suspension to lyse erythrocytes. The cells were then centrifuged three times in RPMI-1640 medium for washing and were resuspended in an RPMI-1640 medium. To this suspension, mitomycin C (KYOWA HAKKO KOGYO Co., Ltd.) was added to a final concentration of 25 μg/mL and the suspension was incubated for 30 minutes at 37° C. in a 5% CO2 atmosphere. The cells were centrifuged three times in RPMI-1640 medium for washing and were resuspended in an RPMI-1640 medium so that the medium would contain 2.5×108 cells/mL. This suspension served as a “stimulation cell suspension.” Using a 27G needle, along with a microsyringe (Hamilton), 20 μL (5×106 cells/mouse) of the stimulation cell suspension was subcutaneously injected into the right hind footpad of 6 to 12 week old male C3H/HeN mice (CLEA JAPAN Inc., CHARLES RIVER JAPAN Inc., or JAPAN SLC Inc.). As a normal control group, a group of mice were injected with RPMI-1640 medium alone. 4 days after the injection, right popliteal lymph nodes were collected and were weighed on a Mettler AT201 electronic scale (METTLER TOLEDO Co., Ltd.). Each animal was intraperitoneally administered a test compound once a day for four consecutive days starting on the day of the injection of the stimulation cells (i.e., total of 4 times). As a control group, a group of the animals were administered the same solvent as that used in the preparation of each test compound. The results are shown in Table 16 below:

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY
[0511] As set forth, the present invention has been devised in recognition of the fact that the novel amino alcohol derivatives with a diarylsulfide or diarylether group exhibit strong immunosuppressive effects, the effects particularly significant when one of the aryl groups includes, at its para-position, a carbon chain with an amino alcohol group and the other aryl group includes a substituent at its meta-position. Effective immunosuppressors, the compounds of the present invention have a great potential as a prophylactic or therapeutic agent against rejection in organ or bone marrow transplantation, autoimmune diseases, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, bronchial asthma, pollinosis and various other diseases.
