Description

CA 02232878 1998-0~-12 LIQUID DETERGENTS WITH ORTHO-SUBSTITUTED
PHENYLBORONIC ACIDS FOR INHIBITION OF PROTEOLYTIC ENZYMES
This application has been divided out of Canadian Patent Application Serial No.
2,173,107 filed October 28, 1994, entered Canadian national phase on March 29, 1996.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention pertains to novel phenylboronic acid compounds suitable for use in the preparation of liquid laundry detergents containing a protease enzyme and at least one additional enzyme. The additional enzyme is protected from degradation by the protease during storage of the detergent by the presence of certain phenylboronic acids.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Protease-containing liquid detergent compositions are well known. A
commonly encountered problem, particularly with heavy duty liquid laundry detergents, is the degradation by proteolytic enzyme of second (non-protease) enzymes in thecomposition, such as lipase, amylase and cellulase or combinations thereof. The 15 performance of the second enzyme upon storage, and its stability in product are thus impaired by proteolytic enzyme.
Boronic acids are known to reversibly inhibit proteolytic enzyme activity. This inhibition is reversible upon dilution, as occurs when a laundry detergent containing the enzyme is dissolved in the preparation of laundry wash water.
The inhibition constant (Ki) is ordinarily used as a measure of capacity to inhibit enzyme activity, with a low Ki indicating a more potent inhibitor. However, it has been found that not all boronic acids are sufficiently effective inhibitors of proteolytic enzyme in liquid detergents, particularly heavy duty liquid laundry detergents, regardless of their Ki values. This is believed to be due to a base catalyzed 25 decomposition of the boronic acid caused by the alkaline medium of a heavy duty liquid, with the extent and rate of the decomposition being dependent on the structure of the boronic acid molecule.
A discussion of the inhibition of one proteolytic enzyme, subtilisin, is provided in Philipp, M. and Bender, M.L., "Kinetics of Subtilisin and Thiosubtilisin", Molecular 30 & Cellular Biochemistry, vol. 51, pp. 5-32 (1983). Inhibition constants for boronic acids are provided therein, and boronic acids are cited as subtilisin inhibitors. Low Ki values are said to indicate more effective inhibitors.
One class of boronic acid, peptide alkylboronic acid, is discussed as an inhibitor of trypsin-like serine proteases such as thrombin, plasma kallikrein and 35 plasmin, especially in pharamaceuticals, in European Patent Application 0 293 881, Kettner et al., published December 7, 1988.

CA 02232878 1998-0~-12 European Patent No. 4~6,073, published November 14, 1990 discloses liquid detergent compositions containing certain bacterial serine proteases and lipases.
U.S. Patent No. 4,90~,150, Hessel et al, issued March 13, 1990 describes liquid S detergent compositions containing lipolytic enzymes wherein the stability of the lipolytic enzyme is said to be improved by incl-~sion of particular nonionic ethylene glycol containing copolymers.
U.S. Patent No. 4,566,9~, Bruno et a], issued January 2S, 1986 describes liquid cleaning compositions containing a mixture of enzymes incl~lding a protease and second 10 enzymes. The composition also contains an effective amount of benzamidine hydrohalide to inhibit the digestive effect of protease on the second enzymes. The inhibition effect is reversed upon dilution.
In European Application 0 376 705, Cardinali et al, published July 4, 1990, liquid detergent compositions containing a mixture of lipolytic enzymes and proteolytic 15 enzymes have been described. The storage stability of the lipolytic enzyme is said to be enhanced by the inclusion of a lo~ver aliphatic alcohol and a salt of a lower carboxylic acid and a surfactant system which is predominantly nonionic.
In ~uropean Patent Application 0 3S1 262, Aronson et al, published August S, 1990, mixtures of proteolytic and lipolytic enzymes in a liquid medium have been20 disclosed. Tlle stability of lipolytic enzylne is said to be improYed by the addition of a stabilizing system comprising boron compoul1d and a polyol ~Yhich are capable ofreactin;,, ~hereby the polyol has a first bindhlg constant ~ith the boron compound of at least 500 l/mole and a second binding constant of at least 1000 I'/mole2.
PCT ~pplication WO 92/19707, published October 30, 1992 discloses meta 25 substituted boronic acids as reversible plotease inhibitors in liquid laundry detergents.
Tl~ey are indicated as being supel ior to the para substituted isomers for this purpose.
Tlle stabilit~ of se~eral substit~lted phenylbolollic acids is discussecl by K~ ila et a]. in Call2diall Jonrl1al of Chemistry at 30SI-3090 (]963).

wherein Q is -O- or -NH, A is an amino acid moiety or a pe?iide moiety comprised ~5 of a combination of amino acid tnoieties, tlle alnino acid, ~ng sele~ted fromal~Line (~la), arginine (Arg), asparagine (Asn), aspar~ic 2Ci~ (Asp), cysteine (C~s), glutarnine (Gln), glutamic acid (Glu), glycine (Gly), histidine (~-~is), isoleucine (lle), leucine (I leu), Iysine (Lys), methionine (Met), phenyalanine (Phe), proLine (Pro), ~ serine (Ser), threon~ne (Thr), tryptopl~an (Trp), tyrosine (T~;r) and valirle (~al), the 30 said amino acid or: peptide moiety being Lin~ied to Q as an es~er or amide through the W O95112655 PCT~S94/12407 carboxylic acid of said amino acid or peptide at the C terrninus, P is hydrogen or an amine protecting group, n is l-5, and ~ach Y is H, Cl-C4 alkyl or halogen.
Preferred amino acids are alanine, leucine, valine, isoleucine proline, phenylalanine, tryptophan glycine, arginine, and methionine Amine protecting groups are groups s which are attached to the amine end of an amino acid or peptide to block reaction by the amine when the carboxylic acid group is being reacted with another material.Typical amine protecting groups are methoxycarbonylJ benzyloxycarbonyl and tertiarybutoxycarbonyl .
Y is preferably H in both Type l) and Type ~ compounds The preferred o compounds are those of Type (l) wherein X is -NH~CH3, and the compounds of Type 2 wherein Q is -NH. I .
The compounds of Type (l) wherein X is -NHR, -NHlR,- . ~
NHS02~ and -O~?R wherein R is aryl, or Cl to C3 aL~cyl, and the compounds of Type 2 are novel and are the subject matter of the present invention.
lS - It is believed that boronic acids inhibit proteolytic enzyme activity by forming a reversible covalent bond to the serine hydroxyl group in the active site of the proteolytic enzyme. Upon dilution, under typical wash conditions, protease activity is regained once this bond is broken and the boronic acid diffuses away from the proteolytic enzyme.
Aside from the ability to bond with protease, the efficacy of a protease inhibitor is also deterrnined by the ir~herent chemical stability of the inhibitor in the medium in whicll it is use~d.
The ortho substituted phenylboronic acids are superior to the compa~ble meta and ~ substituted compounds. This is believed ~5 to ~e due to (l) their better chemic~l stability in a concentrated allcaline detergent medium, and/or (2) their higher binding affil ity to the protease.
Examples of boronic acids are: o-hydroxyphenylboronic acid, o-nitrophenylboronic acid, o-aminopllenylboronic acid, o-N-acetylaminophenyl~oronic acid, ~oc-~iie-Gly-~la-o- aminophenylhoronic acid, o-I~T-sulfonamidophenyl~oronic acid, 2-amino-4-chlorophenylb~ronic acid, 2-nitro-3-ethylphenylboronic acid, Z-Gly-Ala-o- arninophenylboronic acid. In the above-recited peptide derivatives, the tenn "Moc" means methoxycar~onyl and the te~n Zmeans ~nzyloxycar~onyl, both of which are amine protecting gTOUpS The peptide deriYati~es without the amine protecting groups a;re also useful.
The ortho substituted ~oronic acids can conver~iently be made, starting with the process described by Seaman et al., J. Am. Chem. S~c., ~'ol. 53, p. 71 l (Feb.

CA 02232878 1998-0~-12 - ]931). The process involves preparation of o-nitro phenylboronic acid by reaction of fuming nitric acid with pllenylboronic acid in the presence of acetic anllydride. The product is a mixture of approximately 95% ortho and 5% E~ nitro phenylboronic acid.
The ortho and ~ isomers can be separated by crystallization. The o-nitro compound 5 can be converted to other derivatives by known reaction means. For example, the corresponding amino derivative can be prepared by catalytic hydrogenation of thenitro compound.
The hydroxyl derivative can be prepared by diazotization of the o-amino derivative, followed by hydrolysis. The ether and ester derivatives can be prepared by 10 kno-vn reactions from the hydroxyl derivative, e.g., reaction with an alkyl chloride to fonn the ether and ~Vit]1 a carboxylic acid to forrn the ester.
The amido derivative can be prepared by reacting the o-amino derivative with acetic anhydride.
The peptide derivative can be prepared by reacting the o-amino derivative ~vith 15 ethylenegl~col to produce-tlle cyclic boronic ester, reacting the o-amino group with the desired peptide and then hydrolyzing the boronic ester back to the acid form.
The sulfonamido derivative can be prepared by reacting the o-amino derivative witl1 an alkyl sulfonyl chloride.
In the above liquid detergent compositions, from about 0.001 to 10%, preferabl~
about 0.02 to 5%, most preferably 0.05 to 2% of the ortho substituted phenylboronic acid is ~Ised.

Preparation of o-aminophenvlboronic Acid To a three necked round bottom flask equipped with an addition funnel d s (and argon in~et), thermometer and septum is added phenylboronic acid (40.13 g~
0.33 moles). Acetic anhydride (400 rn~) is charged through the septum via syringe. Using a stir bar the mixture is then stirred under argon until the temperature reaches 0~C with externa~ cooling lice bath). Fuming nitric acid (25.01 g, 0.397 moles) is added slowly over the course of thirty minutes. The o reaction is then allowed to stir an additional two hours at O~C~ before removing the ice bath and allowing the reaction to warm to room temperature. The reaction is poured into ice water ( I L) at which point it appears cloudy, Afterstirring overnight, however, it becomes homogeneous. The solution is paced on a rotary evaporator at 40~C under a 5 rnm vacuum. When the volume is reduced by about 50%~ enough water is added to bring the volume back to 100%. This process is repeated twice more, before bringing the volume to about 300 rnl on the rotary evaporator when a precipitate is noticed. Twenty hours are allowed for complete crystallization, and the solids (p-nitrobenzeneboror~ic acid~ 3.66 g) ~ are removed by filtration. Enough water is then added to the fil;rate to bring the total volume to 800 rn~. The volume is reduced once more under reduced pressure to about 150 rn~ when a precipitate begins to form. The solids (o-nitrophenylboronic acid, 48.04 g) are collected by filtration and dried in a vacuum oven To a pressure vessel is added o-nitrophenylboronic acid (31.64 g), 10%
palladium on carbon (6.3 ~) and ethanol (100 m~. The vessel is shook at room temperature under S0 psi hydrogen on a PARR shaker. After four hours the catalyst is removed by filtration, and the filtrate taken to dryness under reduced pressure. The solids (o-aminophenylboronic acid, 24.4 g) are dried under vacuum for 18 hours.
