Abstract

The present invention relates to a maleate acid addition salt of 5-(2-ethyl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)-1-methyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine, pharmaceutical compositions containing the acid addition salt and the use thereof for the treatment of disorders caused by a malfunction of the acetylcholine (AcCh) or muscarinic system.

Description

5-(2-Ethyl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)-1-methyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine maleate The present invention relates to a malefic acid addition salt of 5-(2-ethyl-2H-tetrazol-s 5-yl)-1-methyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine, phamnaceutical compositions containing s the acid addition salt and the use thereof for the treatment of diseases or disorders caused by a malfunction of the cholinergic or muscarinic system.
Background of the Invention ~o US patent No. 4,866,077 discloses a series of piperidine and tetrahydropyridine compounds substituted in position 5 with a 1,2,3-triazoie or a tetrazoie group. These compounds have high affinity to central AcCh receptors, including muscarinic receptors, and are considered useful for the treatment of disorders involving mal-function of the cholinergic system, e.g. Alzheimer's disease, senile dementia, and ~s impaired teaming or memory function.
The structure-activity relationship of these compounds has been described by Moltzen et al., in Med. Chem. 1994, 37, 4085-4099. The compound, 5-(2-ethyl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)-1-methyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine having the formula N~
~N~
which is the subject of the present invention, has been reported to be a partial ago-nist at muscarinic M1 receptors and an antagonist at muscarinic M2 and M3 re-ceptors (Subfypes of Muscarinic Receptors, The sixth International Symposium, zs Nov. 9-12, 1994, Fort Lauderdale). Ligands at muscarinic receptors with this phar-macological profile are considered of particular interest for the treatment of Alz-heimer's disease.
CONFIRMATION COPY
Further, it has been demonstrated that 5-(2-ethyl-2H tetrazol-5-yl)-1-methyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine may be useful for the treatment of traumatic brain injury (TBI) and psychosis or other schizophreniform diseases (W097117074 and co-pending PCT application claiming priority from DK 620197).
TB1 may be caused by various physical and neurological conditions or diseases such as conditions associated with trauma to the brain or spinal cord e.g.
caused by physical forces acting on the scull or spinal column, ischaemia, stroke, arrested breathing, cardiac arrest, cerebral thrombosis or embolism, neurological problems ~o caused by AIDS, cerebral hemorrhage, encephalomyelitis, hydrocephalus, post-operative events, cerebral infections, concussions, or elevated intracraniai pressure.
Psychosis means to include all forms of psychoses such as organic psychoses, drug induced psychoses, Alzheimer related psychoses, and psychoses or related ~s conditions associated with other mental disorders, such as paranoid personality disorder, ect.
The terms schizophrenia and schizophreniform diseases include all types of such disorders, e.g. catatonic, disorganised, paranoid, undifferential and residual schizo-Zo phrenia, and all conditions associated with such diseases, including the positive and negative symptoms thereof.
Unfortunately, the 5-(2-ethyl-2H tetrazol-5-yl)-1-methyl-1,2,3,8-tetrahydropyridine free base is a liquid and as such not suitable for the production of solid pharmaceu-2s tical preparations, such as tablets or capsules. As oral administration a solid entity is the preferred and most convenient method for the administration of a pharma ceutical, a solid form of 5-(2-ethyl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)-1-methyl-1,2,3,6 tetrahydropyridine, suitably a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which can be mixed with various adjuvants or diluents and formed into tablets or filled in cap so sules, is highly desirable.
The oxalic acid addition salt of 5-(2-ethyl-2H-tetrazo!-5-yl)-1-methyl-1,2,3,6-tetra-hydropyridine is specifically disclosed in US patent No. 4,866,077. However, while oxalic acid addition salts may be particularly useful for crystallization and purification purposes, they are not suitable for the preparation of pharmaceuticals due to the toxicity of oxalic acid.
s A pham~aceutically acceptable salt of 5-(2-ethyl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)-1-methyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine, the tartrate, has been described in Moltzen et al., J.
Med.
Chem.1994, 37, 4085-4099. Unfortunately, the tartrate is difficult to precipitate and recrystallize in large scale productions. Accordingly, the tartrate salt is not suitable ~o for commercial production of solid pharmaceutical preparations.
Surprisingly, it has now been found that precipitation and recrystallization of the cor-responding malefic acid addition salt proceed smoothly even in large scale.
~s The Invention It is the object of the present invention to provide a solid pharmaceutically accept-able form of 5-(2-ethyl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)-1-methyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine suitable for large scale production of solid pharmaceutical entities, e.g. tablets or capsules.
According to the present invention the malefic acid addition salt of 5-(2-ethyl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)-1-methyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine and pharmaceutical compositions comprising said acid addition salt have been provided.
The malefic acid addition salt according to the invention may be obtained by treat-ment of 5-(2-ethyl-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)-1-methyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine or a salt de-rivative thereof with malefic acid in an inert solvent, followed by precipitation, isola-tion and optionally recrystallization by known methods and if desired followed by micronisation of the crystalline product by wet or dry milling or another convenient 3o process, or preparation of particles from a solvent-emulsification process.
Precipitation of the maleate salt is carried out in an inert aprotic solvent, preferably tetrahydrofuran (THF).
The maleate acid addition salt of the invention may be administered in any suitable way e.g. orally or parenterally, and the compounds may be presented in any sui-table form for such administration, e.g. in the form of tablets, capsules, powders, syrups or solutions or dispersions for injection. Preferably, and in accordance with the purpose of the present invention, the maleate of the invention is administered in the form of a solid pharmaceutical entity, suitably as a tablet or a capsule.
,o Methods for the preparation of solid pharmaceutical preparations are well known in the art. Tablets may thus be prepared by mixing the active ingredients with ordinary adjuvants andlor diluents and subsequently compressing the mixture in a conve-nient tabletting machine. Examples of adjuvants or diluents comprise: corn starch, ~5 lactose, talcum, magnesium stearate, gelatine, lactose, gums, and the like.
Any other adjuvant or additive colourings, aroma, preservatives, etc. may also be used provided that they are compatible with the active ingredients.
The compound of the invention is most conveniently administered orally in unit dos-2o age forms such as tablets or capsules, containing the active ingredient in an amount from about 10 wgldaylkg to 15 mgldaylkg body weight, preferably 25 p,gldaylkg to 10 mg/daylkg and most preferred 4-5- mg/kglday body weight. Ac-cordingly, a suitable daily dose is 500 p,g to 1000 mglday, preferably 1.0 to mg/day and most preferred 300-400 mg/day.
The maleate acid addition salt according to the invention is readily soluble in water, alcohol and other polar solvents and may, if desired, be used for the preparation of ' solutions for injection.
Solutions for injections may be prepared by dissolving the active ingredient and so possible additives in a part of the vehicle, preferably sterile water, adjusting the so-lution to the desired volume, sterilization of the solution, and filling in suitable am-z poules or vials. Any suitable additive conventionally used in the art may be added, such as tonicity agents, preservatives, antioxidants, ect.
The invention will be illustrated in the following examples. The examples may not s be construed as limiting.
