Description

ATP Analogues
This invention relates to pharmaceutically useful compounds, and processes for their production.
Adenine triphosphate (ATP) has potent pharmacological effects on a variety of tissues, the activity of ATP and the other extracellular adenine nucleotides, adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and adenosine monophosphate (AMP), are mediated by P2-purinoceptors. However, the potency of ATP in some tissues, e.g. the bladder, may be reduced due to rapid dephosphorylation, to AMP and adenosine, by ectonucleotidases present in these tissues.
In recent studies ATP analogues which are resistant to dephosphorylation have been used as biological probes to investigate the P2-purinoceptors present in a variety of tissues:
Cusack et al, Br. J. Pharmacol.. 1987, 90), 791-795, describe the activity of 2-methylthio-5'-adenylic acid, monoanhydride with methylenebisphophonic acid,
2-methylthio-5'-adenylic acid, monoanhydride with
dichloromethylenebisphophonic acid and 2-methylthio-5'- adenylic acid, monoanhydride with difluoromethylenebis- phosphonic acid on the guinea pig taenia coli and urinary bladder. Stone and Cusack, Br. J. Pharmacol.. 1989, 97, 631-635, describe the use of inter alia 2-methylthio-5'-adenylic acid, monoanhydride with difluoromethylenebis- phosphonic acid in an investigation of P2-purinoceptors in the rat hippocampus. Maguire and Satchell in
"Physiological and Regulatory Functions of Adenosine and Adenine Nucleotides", Ed. H.P. Baer and G.I. Drummond, Raven Press, New York, 1979, p.33-43, disclose the
inhibition of guinea pig taenia coli by the compound
2-chloro-5'-adenylic acid, monoanhydride with
methylenebisphophonic acid.
Cusack and Hourani, Nucleosides & Nucleotides. 1991, 10(5), 1019-1028, have also reported that 2-methylthio- 5'-adenylic acid, monoanhydride with methylenebisphophonic acid inhibits ADP-α-S induced platelet aggregation.
We have now found a group of novel 2-substituted ATP derivatives which exhibit pharmacological activity.
According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a compound of formula I,
Y
wherein Q represents CR1R2,
R represents O or CR3R4,
W represents O or CH2,
R1, R2, R3 and R4 independently represent
hydrogen or halogen,
X represents S(O)nR5, alkyl C1-6, alkoxy C1-6, acylamino C1-6, CONR6R7, NR8R9, halogen, a 5- or
6-membered S containing heterocycle, or phenyl optionally substituted by alkyl C1-6,
n represents 0, 1 or 2,
R- represents aryl or alkyl C1-6 optionally
substituted by one or more substituents selected from hydroxy, alkoxy C1-6, halogen and aryl;
R6, R7, R8 and R9 independently represent
hydrogen or alkyl C1-6,
Y represents NH2 or alkoxy C1-6, and
Z represents an acidic moiety,
in addition, when R represents CR3R4, then -Q-Z may also represent hydroxy or -OP(O)(OH)2,
provided that: i) when R is O, W is O, X is Cl, Y is NH2 and Z is -P(O)(OH)2, then CR1R2 does not represent CH2;
and
ii) when R is O, W is O, X is SCH3, Y is NH2 and Z is -P(O)(OH)2, then CR1R2 does not represent (a)
CH2, (b) CF2 or (c) CCl2,
and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
Compounds of formula I may exist in tautomeric, enantiomeric and diastereomeric forms, all of which are included within the scope of the invention.
According to the invention there is further provided process for the preparation of compounds of formula I, and salts thereof, which comprises:
a) producing a compound of formula I in which R represents O, or a salt thereof, by reacting a compound of formula II, or a salt thereof,
OH OH
wherein W, X and Y are as defined above and L1,
represents a leaving group, with a compound of formula III, or a salt thereof,
wherein Z and Q are as defined above.
b) producing a compound of formula I in which R represents CR3R4, or a salt thereof, by reacting a
compound of formula IV, or a salt thereof,
wherein W, X and Y are as defined above and L2 represents a leaving group, with a compound of formula V, or a salt thereof,
wherein Z, Q, R3 and R4 are as defined above.
c) producing a compound of formula I in which R is CR3R4 and -Q-Z is -OP(O)(OH)2, or a salt thereof, by reacting a corresponding compound of formula I in which -Q-Z is hydroxy with a compound of formula VI, or a salt thereof.
wherein L3 is a leaving group.
d) removal of a protecting group from a corresponding protected compound of formula I in which one or more of the functional groups is protected,
and where desired or necessary converting the resultant compound of formula I, or another salt thereof, to a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof or vice versa.
In processes a) and c) leaving groups which L1 and Lo may represent include amines , for example,
dialkylamines or saturated or unsaturated cyclicamines; particular leaving groups which may be mentioned include morpholinyl, imidazolyl and triazolyl.
In process b) leaving groups which L2 may represent include alkyl or arylsulphonyloxy groups such as methane- sulphonyloxy, trifluoromethanesulphonoxy or p-toluene- sulphonyloxy; or trifluoroacetoxy.
In processes a), b) and c) the solvent used is
preferably a dipolar aprotic solvent, for example,
pyridine, dimethylformamide, acetonitrile, hexamethyl- phosphorictriamide, N,N'-dimethylpropyleneurea or
1-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone. The reaction may be carried out at a temperature of from -20 to 100°C, e.g. from 10 to 30°C.
Compounds of formulae II to VI are either known or may be prepared using methods known to those skilled in the art or by techniques analogous to those given in the examples. For example, compounds of formula II in which L1
represents morpholinyl may be prepared from the
corresponding 5'-monophosphates by treatment with
morpholine in the presence of a condensing agent such as dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, preferably in the presence of a protic solvent or mixture of solvents such as tbutanol and water.
For compounds in which W is 0, the nucleoside
5'-monophosphates and nucleosides used in the preparation of the compounds of formulae II and IV respectively are either known or may be prepared from known compounds using known techniques, see, for example, "Chemistry of
Nucleosides and Nucleotides" Vol. 2, Ed. Leroy B. Townsend, Plenum Press 1991.
In the above processes it may be necessary for any functional groups, e.g. hydroxy or amino groups, present in the starting materials to be protected, thus process d) may involve the removal of one or more protecting groups.
Suitable protecting groups and methods for their removal are, for example, those described in "Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry" by Theodora Greene, John Wiley and Sons Inc., 1981. Hydroxy groups may, for example, be protected by arylmethyl groups such as phenylmethyl, diphenylmethyl or triphenylmethyl, or as tetrahydropyranyl derivatives. Suitable amino protecting groups include arylmethyl groups such as benzyl, (R,S)-α-phenylethyl, diphenylmethyl or triphenylmethyl, and acyl groups such as acetyl, trichloroacetyl or trifluoroacetyl. Conventional methods of deprotection may be used including
hydrogenolysis, acid or base hydrolysis, or photolysis.
Arylmethyl groups may, for example, be removed by
hydrogenolysis in the presence of a metal catalyst e.g.
palladium on charcoal. Tetrahydropyranyl groups may be cleaved by hydrolysis under acidic conditions. Acyl groups may be removed by hydrolysis with a base such as sodium hydroxide or potassium carbonate, or a group such as trichloroacetyl may be removed by reduction with, for example, zinc and acetic acid.
Salts of the compounds of formula I may be formed by reacting the free acid, or a salt thereof, or the free base, or a salt or derivative thereof, with one or more equivalents of the appropriate base or acid. The reaction may be carried out in a solvent or medium in which the salt is insoluble or in a solvent in which the salt is soluble, e.g. ethanol, tetrahydrofuran or diethyl ether, which may be removed in vacuo, or by freeze drying. The reaction may also be a metathetical process or it may be carried out on an ion exchange resin. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds of formula I include alkali metal salts, e.g. sodium and potassium salts; alkaline earth metal salts, e.g. calcium and magnesium salts; salts of the Group III elements, e.g aluminium salts; and ammonium salts. Salts with suitable organic bases, for example, salts with hydroxylamine; lower alkylamines, e.g. methylamine or ethylamine; with
substituted lower alkylamines, e.g. hydroxysubstituted alkylamines; or with monocyclic nitrogen heterocyclic compounds, e.g. piperidine or morpholine; and salts with amino acids, e.g. with arginine, lysine etc, or an N-alky derivative thereof; or with an aminosugar, e.g.
N-methyl-D-glucamine or glucosamine. The non-toxic
physiologically acceptable salts are preferred, although other salts are also useful, e.g. in isolating or purifying the product.
Alkyl groups include straight, branched or cyclic, saturated or unsaturated alkyl groups.
Aryl groups include both carbocyclic and heterocycli groups. The groups may contain rings of various numbers C-atoms and may be fused ring structures. Particular carbocyclic aryl groups which may be mentioned are phenyl and naphthyl. Heteroaryl groups include nitrogen, oxygen or sulphur heterocycles and may contain one or more
heteroatoms. Examples of heterocycles containing only one heteroatom include pyrrole, furan, thiophen and pyridine. Groups containing more than one heteroatom include
pyrazole, oxazole, thiazole, triazole, oxadiazole,
thiadiazole etc.
Halogens which X, R1, R2, R3 and R4 may
represent include F, Cl, Br and I.
When Q represents CR1R2, we prefer R1 and R2
to be the same, we particularly prefer compounds in which R1 and R2 both represent Cl.
When R represents CR3R4, we prefer R3 and R4 to be the same, we particularly prefer compounds in which R3 and R4 both represent hydrogen or Cl.
We prefer compounds in which Q represents CR1R2.
We prefer compounds in which R represents O.
We particularly prefer compounds of formula I in which Q represents CR1R2 and R represents O.
We prefer compounds in which W represents O.
S containing heterocycles which X may represent included both saturated and unsaturated heterocycles containing 1 or 2 S atoms. A particular heterocyclic group which may be mentioned is thienyl, particularly 2-thienyl.
We prefer compounds of formula I in which X represents S(O)nR5, particularly those compounds in which n
represents O. We prefer compounds of formula I in which R5 represents alkyl C1-6, particular alkyl groups which may be mentioned include ethyl, butyl and propyl,
particularly n-propyl.
We prefer compounds in which Y represents NH2.
Acidic moieties which Z may represent include
Bronsted-Lowry acids, i.e. moieties which act as proton donors. The acidic moiety may be mono- or poly-acidic.
Specific acidic moieties which may be mentioned include
-P(O)(OH)2, -SO3H and -CO2H.
We prefer compounds of formula I in which Z represents -P(O)(OH)2.
The compounds of formula I are useful because they exhibit pharmacological activity in mammals. In
particular, they show activity in the prevention of
platelet aggregation.
The potency of the compounds of formula I as
inhibitors of platelet aggregation may be determined from their ability to act as P2T receptor antagonists, see
Example X.
The compounds may be used in any condition where platelet aggregation or disaggregation is involved. The compounds may thus act as anti-thrombotic agents and are indicated in the treatment or prophylaxis of unstable angina, thromboembolic stroke and peripheral vascular disease. They are also indicated in the treatment or prophylaxis of the sequelae of thrombotic complications from angioplasty, thrombolysis, endarterctomy, coronary and vascular graft surgery, renal dialysis and cardio-pulmonary bypass. Further indications include the treatment or prophylaxis of disseminated intravascular coagulation, deep vein thrombosis, pre-eclampsia/eclampsia, tissue salvage following surgical or accidental trauma, vasculitis, arteritis, thrombocythaemia, ischemia and migraine.
According to a further aspect of the invention, we therefore provide the compounds of formula I, as defined above, but without provisos i), ii) (b) and ii) (c), as pharmaceuticals.
The dosage to be administered will vary widely, depending on, amongst other factors, the particular
compound of formula I employed, the particular condition to be treated and its severity. However, in general a total daily dose of 1g may be suitable, which may be administered in divided doses up to 6 times per day.
The compounds will generally be administered in the form of a pharmaceutical composition.
Thus, according to a further aspect of the invention there is provided a pharmaceutical composition comprising preferably less than 80% w/w, more preferably less than 50% w/w, e.g. 0.1 to 20%, of a compound of formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, as defined above , but without provisos i), ii) (b) and ii) (c), in admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvant, diluent or carrier.
Examples of pharmaceutical formulations which may be used, and suitable adjuvants, diluents or carriers, are as follows : for intravenous injection or infusion - purified water or saline solution;
for inhalation compositions - coarse lactose;
for tablets, capsules and dragees - macrocrystalline cellulose, calcium phosphate, diatomaceous earth, a sugar such as lactose, dextrose or mannitol, talc, stearic acid, starch, sodium bicarbonate and/or gelatin;
for suppositories - natural or hardened oils or waxes.
When the compound is to be used in aqueous solution, e.g. for infusion, it may be necessary to incorporate other excipients. In particular there may be mentioned chelating or sequestering agents, antioxidants, tonicity adjusting agents, pH-modifying agents and buffering agents.
Solutions containing a compound of formula I may, if desired, be evaporated, e.g. by freeze drying or spray drying, to give a solid composition, which may be
reconstituted prior to use.
When not in solution, the compound of formula I preferably is in a form having a mass median diameter of from 0.01 to 10μm. The compositions may also contain suitable preserving, stabilising and wetting agents, solubilisers, e.g. a water-soluble cellulose polymer such as hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, or a water-soluble glycol such as propylene glycol, sweetening and colouring agents and flavourings. Where appropriate, the compositions may be formulated in sustained release form.
According to a further aspect of the invention we therefore provide the use of a compound of formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in the
manufacture of a pharmaceutical composition for the
treatment of a condition where platelet aggregation or disaggregation is involved.
According to a further aspect of the invention, we therefore provide a method of treating a condition where platelet aggregation or disaggregation is involved which comprises administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula I, as defined above but without provisos i), ii) (b) and ii) (c), to a patient suffering from such a condition.
The compounds of the invention are advantageous in that they are less toxic, more efficacious, are longer acting, have a broader range of activity, are more potent, are more stable, produce fewer side effects, are more easily absorbed, are more readily cleared from the body or have other useful pharmacological properties, than
compounds previously used in the therapeutic fields
mentioned above.
The invention is illustrated, but in no way limited, by the following Examples, in which temperatures are given in degrees Celsius. Examples are named using Chemical Abstracts nomenclature.
Example 1
2-Propylthio-5'-adenylic acid, monoanhydride with dibromomethylenebisphosphonic acid, tetrasodium salt
i) 2-Propylthioadenosine
Adenosine-2-thione (2.5 g) in water (15 ml), methanol (45 ml) and IN sodium hydroxide solution (8.36 ml) were cooled in an icebath and iodopropane (5 ml) introduced.
After 4 days the reaction mixture was evaporated and the residue chromatographed (SiO2, ethyl acetate:methanol, 9:1) to afford the sub-title compound in quantitative yield.
NMR δ1H (d6DMSO) 8.22 (s, 1H), 7.36 (brs, 2H),
5.80 (d, 1H, J=5.9Hz), 5.61 (t, 1H, J=5.5Hz), 5.13 (m, 1H), 3.90 (dd, 1H, J=4.0 and 7.7Hz), 3.64 (dd, 1H, J=4.2 and 11.8Hz), 3.52 (dd, 1H, J=4.4 and 11.8Hz), 3.0-3.2 (m, 2H), 1.67 (hextet, 2H, J=7.3HZ), 0.99 (t, 3H, J=7.3Hz).
ii) 2-Propylthio-5'-adenylic acid
The product of step i) (1.0 g) was added to a stirred mixture of phosphorus oxychloride (1.06 ml) and triethyl phosphate (25 ml) at -10ºC. After 3 hours the reaction mixture was poured onto ice and the pH adjusted to 7 with solid sodium bicarbonate. The solution was washed with ether (3×150 ml) and then lyophilised. The resulting solid was taken in deionised water and applied to a column of Dowex 50Wx8 (H+ form), which was washed with water until the eluate was at pH 6, then eluted with 1M ammonium hydroxide. Lyophilisation afforded the sub-title compound (0.4 g).
NMR δ31P (D2O) 1.32 (s).
iii) 2-Propylthio-5'-adenylic acid, monoanhydride with dibromomethylenebisphosphonic acid, tetrasodium salt
The product of step ii) (0.4 g) and tri-n-butylamine (0.175 g) were combined in a small volume of water and the solution evaporated to dryness. Azeotropic drying with pyridine (3×15 ml) followed by anhydrous dimethylformamide (2×15 ml) left a residue which was taken into anhydrous dimethylformamide (10 ml). Carbonyldiimidazole (0.77 g) was added, and the reaction left at room temperature for 4 hours before adding methanol (0.24 g). After 30 min the mono tri-n-butylammonium salt of dibromomethylenebisphosphonic acid (6.5 mmol) in anhydrous
dimethylformamide (30 ml) was added, and the mixture stirred at room temperature for 18 hours. Filtration and evaporation afforded a residue which was purified by chromatography (DEAE-Sepharose, aqueous ammonium
bicarbonate 0-0.4M as eluant). Lyophilisation gave the ammonium salt which was redissolved in water (200 ml) and treated with triethylamine (10 ml). Evaporation in vacuo produced the tetrakistriethylammonium salt which was converted to the tetrasodium form by dissolution in
methanol (2 ml) and addition of sodium iodide solution (IM in acetone, 30 ml). The precipitate was collected by centrifugation, washing by repeated suspension in acetone (4×40 ml) and recentrifugation. Finally the solid was dissolved in water and lyophilised to afford the title sal as a white powder (0.42 g).

Example X
Quantification of P2T receptor agonist/antagonist activity in washed human platelets.
Preparation
Human venous blood (100 ml) was divided equally between 3 tubes, each containing 3.2% trisodium citrate (4 ml) as anti-coagulant. The tubes were centrifuged for 15 min at 240G to obtain a platelet-rich plasma (PRP) to which 300 ng/ml prostacyclin (PGI2, 3μl/ml PRP of 1/10 diln. in saline from stock 1 mg/ml in ethanol) was added to stabilize the platelets during the washing procedure. Red cell free PRP was obtained by centrifugation for 10 min at 125G followed by further centrifugation for 15 min at
640G. The supernatant was discarded and the platelet pellet resuspended in modified, calcium free, Tyrode solution ((10 ml) CFT, composition: NaCl 137mM (8 g/l), NaHCO3 11.9mM (1 g/l), NaH2PO4 0.38mM (0.06 g/l), KCl
2.86mM (1 ml of 20% soln./l), MgCl2 1.05 mM (1 ml of 10% soln./l), dextrose 5.55mM (1 g/l)), gassed with 95% O2/5% CO2 and maintained at 37°. Following addition of a
further 300 ng/ml PGI2, the pooled suspension was
centrifuged once more for 15 min at 640G. The supernatant was discarded and the platelets resuspended initially in 10 ml CFT with further CFT added to adjust the final platelet count to 2×105/μl. This final suspension was stored in a 60 ml syringe at 3° with air excluded.
To allow recovery from PGI2-inhibition of normal function, platelets were used in aggregation studies no sooner than 2 hours after final resuspension. In all studies 430 μl aliquots of platelet suspension were
added to siliconized aggregation cuvettes containing
CaCl2 solution (10 μl of 45 mM soln., final cone. 1mM) and stirred at 900 rpm in a PAP4 aggregometer (Biodata). Human fibrinogen (Sigma, F 4883) and 8-sulphophenyl- theophylline (8-SPT, to block any P1 agonist activity of compounds) were added to give final concentrations of 0.2 mg/ml (10 μl of 10 mg/ml solution of clottable protein in saline) and 3×10-4M (10 μl of 5.6 mg/ml solution in
6% glucose), respectively. Recording of aggregation was then started.
Protocol
a) Selection of submaximal ADP concentration
A concentration of ADP producing a just submaximal response was selected by constructing a concentration/ response curve over the range 10-300μM. The appropriate solution of ADP was added to the aggregation cuvette in a volume of 10 μl, 20 min after starting the aggregation trace. Aggregation responses were measured using the maximum rate of change in light transmission, an index given by the PAP4 slope-reader. The submaximal
concentration of ADP selected at this stage of the protocol was used in the subsequent assessment of antagonist potency of the compounds. All measurements were made in duplicate in platelets from each donor,
h) Assessment of agonist/antagonist potency
5 min after starting the aggregation trace, saline or the appropriate solution of test compound was added to an aggregation cuvette in a volume of 30 μl to give a final concentration of 0, 10, 100 or 1000 μM. Aggregation at this point was indicative of agonist activity and, if it occurred, agonist potency was estimated by comparison with control ADP responses obtained in a). If aggregation did not occur the previously selected submaximal concentration of ADP was added in a volume of 10 μl, 15 min after the test compound. Antagonist potency was estimated as a % inhibition of the control ADP response to obtain an
approximate IC50. Compounds which completely inhibited the ADP response at the initial concentrations were
retested at a lower concentration range. Compounds with an IC50 <10-8M were also retested in the absence of 8-SPT to confirm the lack of any P1 agonist activity and with a 2 min rather than a 15 min incubation to check whether inhibition was time dependent.
Results
Results are reported as the negative logarithm of the antagonist potency (pIC50) obtained in duplicate form from each of 4 donors. For compounds with pIC50 >8 a comment "clean" is made if there is no evidence of P1 agonist activity. An IC50 <3 is defined as "inactive".
