Abstract

The invention provides a compound of formula I <IMAGE> wherein R represents hydrogen, lower alkyl, aryl or aralkyl, R<1> represents hydrogen or lower alkoxy, R<2> represents hydrogen, chlorine or trifluoromethyl and n is 1 or 2, or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof, for use as a pharmaceutical. The compounds are particularly useful as anti-ulcer agents and pharmaceutical compositions containing them are covered. Novel compounds of formula I and methods for their preparation are also claimed.

Description

SPECIFICATION Pyridine derivatives The invention relates to pyridine derivatives which show activity in tests for anti-ulcer and/or antisecretory activity.
In our search for novel anti-ulcer agents we have found that certain 2-(arylthiomethyl) pyridine derivatives possess activity in tests for anti-ulcer or anti-secretory activity and hence are of value in the treatment of ulcers or hypersecretion in mammals. Some of these compounds are known chemicals others are novel.
Accordingly in its broadest aspect the invention provides as a pharmaceutical, e.g. an antiulcer agent, a compound of formula I
wherein R represents hydrogen, lower alkyl, aryl or aralkyl, R' represents hydrogen or lower alkoxy, R2 represents hydrogen, chlorine or trifluoromethyl and n is 1 or 2, or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof.
In this specification a lower alkyl group has from 1 to 6 carbon atoms e.g. methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, s-butyl, t-butyl, n-pentyl and n-hexyl. A loweralkoxy substituent is alkoxy in which the alkyl portion is as defined for a lower alkyl group. Whenever the term lower alkyl is used as part of another radical, e.g. arylloweralkyl, the lower alkyl or lower alkoxy portion has 1 to 6 carbon atoms unless otherwise stated.
The aryl group R is preferably phenyl or substituted phenyl, substitutents being halogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy and so on. Aralkyl is preferably phenyl lower alkyl.
The acid addition salts of compounds of formula I may be of an organic or inorganic acid, e.g.
hydrochloric, hydrobromic, phosphoric, sulphuric, nitric, citric, acetic, formic, fumaric, maleic, tartaric, embonic, methane sulphonic, and p-toluene sulphonic acids.
The compounds of formula I and their acid addition salts may be used in pharmaceutical compositions.
For the pharmaceutical compositions any suitable carrier known in the art can be used. In such a composition, the carrier may be a solid, liquid, or mixture of a solid and a liquid. Solid form compositions include powders, tablets and capsules. A solid carrier can be one or more substances which may also act as flavouring agents, lubricants, solubilisers, suspending agents, binders, or tablet disintegrating agents; it can also be encapsulating material. In powders the carrier is a finely divided solid which is in admixture with the finely divided active ingredient. In tablets the active ingredient is mixed with a carrier having the necessary binding properties in suitable proportions and compacted in the shape and size desired. The powders and tablets preferably contain from 5 to 99, preferably 1 0-80% of the active ingredient.Suitable solid carriers are magnesium carbonate, magnesium stearate, talc, sugar, lactose, pectin, dextrin, starch, gelatin, tragacanth, methyl cellulose, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, a low melting wax and cocoa butter. The term "composition" is intended to include the formulation of an active ingredient with encapsulating material as carrier, to give a capsule in which the active ingredient (with or without other carriers) is surrounded by carriers which is thus in association with it. Similarly cachets are included.
Sterile liquid form compositions include sterile solutions, suspensions, emulsions, syrups and elixirs. The active ingredient can be dissolved or suspended in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, such as sterile water, sterile organic solvent or a mixture of both. The active ingredient can often be dissolved in a suitable organic solvent, for instance aqueous propylene glycol containing from 10 to 75% of the glycol by weight is generally suitable. In other instances compositions can be made by dispersing the finely-divided active ingredient in aqueous starch or sodium carboxymethyl cellulose solution, or in a suitable oil, for instance arachis oil.
Preferably the pharmaceutical composition is in unit dosage form, the composition is sub-divided in unit doses containing appropriate quantities of the active ingredient; the unit dosage form can be a packaged composition, the package containing specific quantities of compositions, for example packeted powders or vials or ampoules. The unit dosage form can be a capsule, cachet or tablet itself, or it can be the appropriate number of any of these in packaged form. The quantity of active ingredient in a unit dose of composition may be varied or adjusted from 10 to 500 mg or more, e.g. 25 mg to 250 mg, according to the particular need and the activity of the active ingredient. The invention also includes the compounds in the absence of carrier where the compounds are in unit dosage form.
The anti-ulcer compositions of the invention will be administered orally in either liquid or solid composition form. These compositions may include one or more antacid ingredients, e.g. aluminium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide or bismuth carbonate, aluminium glycinate, calcium carbonate, magnesium trisilicate, sodium bicarbonate or the alumina gel described in British Specification No 1,284,394.
Anti-ulcer activity was determined by the stress-induced erosion test of Senay 8 Levine, Proc Soc Exp Biol Med, 124,1221-3(1967) and anti-secretory activity by the test of H Shay, D Sun and H Gruenstein, Gastroenterology, 1954,26, 903-13 as exemplified by Beattie et a/ J Med Chem 20, 714 (1977). Compounds which possess one or both these activities are considered to be anti-ulcer agents which can be used for the treatment of ulcers or hypersecretion in mammals. The compounds of formula I which we have tested possess one or both of the above activities.
Some compounds of the invention are novel and the invention also concerns novel compounds of formula Il
wherein R, R1, R2 and n are as defined in connection with formula I but at least one of R, R1 and R2 is other than hydrogen, and pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof.
A compound of formula I wherein R, R1 and R2 are hydrogen and n is 1 is described in J. Org.
Chem. 1963,281323.
The invention includes a method of-preparing a novel compound of formula II, which method comprises reacting a thiol compound of formula Ill, or an alkali metal salt thereof.
wherein R' and R2 are as defined in connection with formula ll with a pyridine derivative of formula IV
wherein n is 1 or 2, R is as defined in connection with formula II and Hal is a halogen atom, especially chlorine, bromine or iodine and if desired converting the product to an acid addition salt.
The invention includes a method of treating ulcers or hypersecretion in a mammal, which method comprises administering to said mammal an effective amount of a compound of formula I or an acid addition salt thereof. The amount of compound used will depend on the activity of the compound and the needs of the mammal being treated. Doses may range from 1 to 100 mg/kg.
The invention is illustrated by the following Examples: EXAMPLE 1 2-((Phenylthio)methyl)pyridine Thiophenol (21 ml) was added to a solution of sodium (4.69) in ethanol (100ml).

The resulting suspension was filtered through kieselghur and the solvent was removed by evaporation.The residue was converted into the hydrochoride in ether with ethereal HCI and recrystallised from acetone-ether to give 2-(((3trifluoromethylphenyl)thio)methyl)-pyridine hydrochloride (4.8g) mp 1 45-60C Found: C, 51.1; H, 4.0; N, 4.7. C,3H10F3NS.HCI requires C, 51.0; H, 3.6; N, 4.6%).
