Description
- The present invention relates to imidazole derivatives and salts thereof, and their synthesis.
- Thromboxane A2 (TXA2), a potent stimulator of blood platelet aggregation, is produced, in platelets, from the prostaglandin endoperoxides PGG2 and PGH2. Prostacyclin (PGI2), which has potent anti-aggregatory activity, is also produced (in bloo dvessel walls) from PGG2 and PGH2 and it has been suggested that a balance between the production of TXA2 and PGI2 is the controlling factor in thrombus formation. It would, in consequence, be desired in the treatment and prophylaxis of thrombo-embolic disorders to be able to selectively inhibit TXA2 synthetase, thereby favouring the production of the anti-aggregatory agent PGI2.
- Imidazole and 1-methylimidazole are known to provide some degree of inhibition of the enzymic conversion of the endoperoxides (PGG2 and PGH2) to thromboxane A2 by platelet microsomes (Moncada et al., Prostaglandins, 13/4, 611-618, 1977). Certain 1-(C10-19) hydrocarbylimidazoles having been described as being capable of lowering serum cholesterol levels (U.K. Patent No. 1 364312; Biochem. Pharmacol. 24, 1902-1903, 1975).
- Also, 1-cyclohexylmethyl-imidazole is disclosed in Wiss. Z. Univ. Halle, Math-Nat. XI/5, 1962, pages 603-612 although no physiological activity is ascribed therein to the compound.
- The inhibitory potency of several derivatives of imidazole and 1-substituted imidazoles, such as 1-methylimidazole on thromboxane synthetase is known from Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, Volume 80 No. 1, 1978, 236-242. The authors of this article report that the inhibitory potency of 1-substituted imidazoles is increased with increasing chain length and states that 1-nonyl imidazole and 1-(2-isopropylphenyl) imidazole were found to possess the highest potency. The best activities are obtained with compounds wherein the 1-substituent on the imidazole ring is a straight chain alkyl group and the reference gives no information as to the 1-substituted imidazoles carrying a cycloalkyl or cycloalkenyl group.
- We have now discovered that TXA2 synthetase can with a surprisingly high and selective effect be inhibited by 1-substituted imidazoles of formula (I) as herein defined and pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof. The compounds of formula I and their pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts are herein referred to as the "active compounds".

- In contrast to imidazole and 1-methylimidazole the compounds of formula (I) are more potent inhibitors of TXA2 synthetase. Many of the compounds (for example in (I) A is -CH2- or -(CH2)2-) are also more selective in their action in not inhibiting other prostaglandin-generating enzymes such as cyclo-oxygenase. The compounds of formula (I) also do not produce the side-effects found with imidazole upon in vivo administration. The compounds of formula (I) are further capable of inhibiting platelet aggregation in vivo and also are capable of disaggregating platelet clumps.

- The active compounds are particularly useful in the treatment and/or prophylaxis of thrombo-embolic disorders in mammals, including man. It is to be understood that the term "thrombo-embolic disorders" includes those disorders whose etiology is associated with platelet aggregation.
- The active compounds are useful wherever it is desired to inhibit platelet aggregation and/or to reduce the adhesive character of platelets, and consequently to treat or prevent the formation of thrombi in mammals, including man. For example, the compounds are useful in the treatment and prevention of myocardial infarcts cerebro-vascular thrombosis and ischaemic peripheral vascular disease; to treat and prevent post-operative thrombosis; and to promote patency of vascular grafts following surgery.
- The active compounds are also useful as an addition to blood, blod products, blood substitutes, and other fluids which are used in artificial extra-corporeal circulation and perfusion of isolated body portions, e.g., limbs and organs, whether attached to the oridinal body, detached and being preserved or prepared for transplant, or attached to a new body. It may also be used in laboratory animals, e.g. cats, dogs, rabbits, monkeys and rats, for these purposes in order to develop new methods and techniques for organ and limb transplants.
- The active compounds also exhibit some vasodilatory action on blood vessels and therefore have a utility as anti-hypertensives for the treatment of high blood pressure in mammals, including man.
- The amount of active compound required for therapeutic or prophylactic effect will vary with the route of administration, and the nature of the condition under treatment. In general a suitable dose for a mammal, including man, of active compound will lie in the range of 0.1 to 300 mg per kg body weight, particularly from 0.5 to 10 mg per kg body weight, for example 2 mg per kg. A suitable single oral dose for an adult human lies within the range of 50 to 600 mg, for example 150 mg given say three times a day.
- While it is possible for the active compounds to be administered as the raw chemical it is preferable to present them as a pharmaceutical formulation. The formulations, both for veterinary and for human medical use, of the present invention comprise an active compound as above defined, together with one or more acceptable carriers therefor and optionally other therapeutic ingredients. The carrier(s) must be 'acceptable' in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and not deleterious to the recipient thereof. Unit doses of a formulation may contain between 60 mg and 1.5 g of an active compound.
- The formulations include those suitable for oral, rectal, vaginal or parenteral (including subcutaneous, intramuscular and intravanous) administration. Preferred formulations include tablets, capsules and injectable suspensions or solutions.
- The formulations may conveniently be presented in unit dosage form and may be prepared by any of the methods well known in the art of pharmacy. All methods include the step of bringing into association the active compound (in the form of the base or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt) with the carrier which constitutes one or more accessory ingredients. In general the formulations are prepared by uniformly intimately bringing into association the active compound with liquid carriers or finely divided solid carriers or both, and then if necessary, shaping the product into the desired formulation.
- It will be appreciated from the foregoing that the present invention provides the following features:-
- (a) Novel compounds of formula (I), and pharmaceutically acceptable addition salts thereof.
- (b) Methods of preparing imidazoles of formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof.
