Abstract

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
The present invention concerns a process of prepara-tion of a novel substituted propionic acid. This compound, which is the 2-[4-(3-thenoyl)-phenoyl]-propionic acid, is obtained by the intermediary of the ethyl 2-methyl-2-[4-(3-thenoyl)-phenyl]
malonate and fluorophenylthenyl methanone. This compound is of particular interest as an analgesic anti-inflammatory agent and anti-aggregating agent for blood platelets.

Description

~`~ ~ ~ 4 ~

The present invention relates toanovel substituted propionic acid, the use of such acid as a medicine, the prepara-tion thereof and the intermediaries which are necessary in this preparation.
The novel compound of the invention is the 2-[4-(3-thenoyl)-phenyl]-propionic acid of the formula CH - COOH (I) ~ 'his compound has an asymmetrical carbon and, as a consequence, can be split by utilising the techniques which are well known to the experts, particularly by crystallisation of the salts obtained with an optically active organic base. the active -forms which are obtained form an integral part of the invention.
This compound is prepared a) by the condensation of 3-thenoyl chloride with fluorobenzene under the conditions of the Friedel Crafts reaction,~ -b) the alkylation of the fluorophenylthenyl methanone by ethyl 2-methyl malonate, in a dipolar aprotic solvent and in the presence of a strong base, c) then alkali hydrolysis of the ethyl 2-methyl-2-[4-(3-thenoyl)-phenyl] malonate and decarboxylation.
Similarly, the salts which are obtained with an orga-nic or mineral base capable of being used in human therapeutics also form part of the invention.
~ his acid can be prepared by alkali hydrolysis of ethyl 2-methyl~2-[4-(3-thenoyl)-phenyl]malonate of the formula ~ ~ C ~ COOC2H5 (II) .,,~ ' '~
~ ~ -2-23~3 and decarboxylation.
This novel intermediate compound forms part of the invention. It is preferably obtained by alkylation of the fluorophenyl thenyl methanone by ethyl 2-methyl-malonate in a dipolar aprotic solvent, in the presence of a strong base.
The fluorophenyl thenyl methanone of formula ~ . ~
~,.. ~.: ' .

-2a-.

` 11(:~2343 is a novel intermediate compound which forms part of the invention. It can be obtained by condensation of 3-thenoyl chloride on fluorobenzene under the conditions of the Friedel-Crafts reaction.
Furthermore, the 2-[4-(3-thenoyl)-phenyl]-propionic acid i9 proved to be of particular interest as an analgesic, anti-inflammatory agent and anti-aggregating agent for blood platelets.
The analgesic activity is proved by the test using acetic acid on the mouse (Siegmund method modified by Koster, ~ -Anderson and Debeer). The active dose 50 (mg/kg) is equal to 9 for the 2-~4-(3-thenoyl)-phenyl~-propionic acid, whereas aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) in this test has a DA50 of 130, Pyramidon (phenyl dimethylamino dimethylpyra-zolone) ha~ a DA~o of 32 and Pethidine (ethyl-l-methyl-4-phenyl-4-piperidine carboxylate hydrochloride) has a DA50 of 17.
The anti-inflammatory activity which is determined, among other methods, by the oedema test using carrageenin in the rat (Winter, and Coll-Proc-Soc Exp. Biol. Med. 1972 III, 544-547) has proved to be excellent. The active dose 30 (mg/kg) of the 2-[4-(3-thenoyl)-phenyl]-propionic acid is 5, while that of phenyl butazone (1,2-diphenyl-3,5-dioxo-4n-butyl pyrazolidine) is 50 and that of Pyramidon is 82.
In connection with the inhibition of erythema due to ultraviolet in the guinea pig (C.V.Winder, J. Wax, V. Burr et al, Arch. Int. Pharm. (1958), 116-261), the
2-[4-(3-thenoyl)-phenyl]-propionic acid is proved to be thirty times more active than aspirin. At 5 mg/kg, the protection of the animal is complete and is of the same order as that provided by Indomethacine [1-(4-chlorobenzoyl)-`:
-3-' ~23~3 5-methoxy-2-methyl indole 3-acetic acid]or Ketoprofene [2-(3'-benzoyl-phenyl)-propionic acid].
The 2-[4-(3-thenoyl)-phenyl~-propionic acid has the property of inhibiting, in vitro and in vivo, the aggre-gation of the plasma platelets of a rabbit, which aggrega- -tion is induced by 5-adenosine diphosphate (A D P) and collagen. The method which is used for proving this phar- ~-macological pxoperty is based on that described by Born (Journal of Physiology - 1962) and with the assistance of a Mustard aggregometer. The result is expressed by a coefficient resulting from the ratio: the smallest active concentration(in micromolesj of the standard over the weakest active concentration of the product. (What is called . .
active concentration is that which provides an inhibition of the aggregation equal to or higher than 50%).
