Abstract

Optically active or racemic compounds are provided having formula (I). Wherein the radicals R1, R2, R3, R4, R6, X and N
are defined in the specification. These compounds are optically active or racemic mixtures capable of binding selectively one or more dopamine D2 receptors, for instance in humans. They are useful in treatment of disorders of the central nervous, cardiovascular, and endocrine systems such as elevated intraocular pressure, schizophrenia and parkinsonism, and for inducing anorexia and weight loss in humans and other mammals.

Description

WO91/00727 za ~ PCT/US~0/03761 Back~round of the Invention Field of the Invent on The invention relates generally to substituted 2-aminotetralins and to processes for preparing such compounds. More particularly, the invention relates to compounds for therapeutic use, in particular in treating disorders of the central nervous, cardiovascular and endocrine systems. The compounds of this invention are also useful for alleviating glaucoma, parkinsonism, and schizophrenia, and for inducing anorexia and weight loss in mammals.

Backaround of the Prior Art It is known that various hydroxylated 2-aminotetralins of the general formula ~ ~ 2 (OH)n where Rl and R2 are saturated alkyl groups and n i5 1 or 2, are dopamine receptor agonists (McDermed et al., J. Med.
Chem. 18, 362 (1975); Feenstra et al., Arch. Pharmacol.
313, 213 (1980).

Many structure-activity relationship studies have been conducted to find compounds with high dopamine-receptor stimulating activity. A survey is contained in Katerinopoulos, H. E., et al., "Structure-Activity Relationships for Dopamine Analogues," Druqs of the Future, Vol. 12, No. 3, 1987, 223-253. Based upon the high activity of apomorphine, many derivatives and simplified structural analogues have been tested and found to have dopaminergic activity. For instance, some of the bicyclic analogues of dopamine, 2-amino-5,6- and 2-amino-6,7-di-hydroxytetralin, and their N-alkylated derivatives were tested and showed activity.

In addition, studies have shown that the 5-hydroxy derivatives of 2-aminotetralins possess high potency almost equivalent to that of the 5,6 catechols, with the additional advantage o~ increased stability, selectivity and duration of biochemical action. These studies have also shown that in bicyclic compounds the size of the two nitrogen substituents controls activity. ~or instznce, the N-butyl and N,N-dibutyl derivatives of 2-amino-5,6-dihydroxytetralin, dopamine and norapomorphine have little or no dopaminergic activity, while analogues having at least one N-ethyl or N-n-propyl group possess high activity~

Further studies have shown that the D2 receptor potency of dopamine agonists is at a maximum when one of the two N-substituents fits into a receptor niche which, becaus~ of size constrain~ max.l~ ccommodates an n-propyl grollp.
Conversely, activity drops off when the propyl group is replac~d by the smaller groups ethyl or methyl. When the ,, . . , , , ::

; However, the structural requirements for the second N-substituent in such compounds have not been established.
Consequently, the search continues for new and better N-substituents to enhance both dopamine receptor binding and activity, especially as shown by in vivo studies designed to test the dopaminergic activity of compounds, such as contralateral turnlng studies in 6-OH-DA-lesioned rats.
See Seiler, Max P., et al., "Structure-Activity Relationships o~ Dopaminergic 5-~ydroxy-2-aminotetralin Derivatives with Functionalized N-Al~yl Substituents." J.
Med. Chem. 1~86, 29, 912-917.

D., et al., J. Med. Chem. 1975, 18, 362; Cannon, J. G., et al., J. Med. Chem. 1977, 20, 1111; and Wikstroem, H., et al., J. Med. Chem. 1982, 25, 925. However, the dopaminergic activity and potency conferred upon the compound by the choice of the second N-substituent is at present, unpredictable so that the search continues for new and better dopa~ine receptor agonists, especially for compounds showing a high degree of selectivity and specificity as either Dl or D2 receptor agonists.
