Description

SPECIFICATION Amide derivatives of 13,14-didehydro-cycloalkyl-prostaglandins The present invention relates to am ides of 13,1 4-didehydro-cycloalkyl-prostaglandins, to a process for their preparation, to pharmaceutical and veterinary compositions containing them and to certain intermediates useful for their preparation.
The invention provides optically active or racemic prostaglandin derivatives of formula (I)
wherein each of R' and R" represents, independently, hydrogen, C1-Cs alkyl, aryl or heterocyclyl or R' and R", taken together with the nitrogen atom to which they are linked, form a heterocyclic ring; the symbol ---- represents a single or a double bond, wherein:: a) when the symbol ---- is a double bond, R1 is a hydrogen atom and R2 and R3, taken together, form an oxo group; b) when the symbol ---- is a single bond, R1 is hydroxy, R2 is hydrogen and R3 is hydroxy or acyloxy or R2 and R3, taken together, form an oxo group; one of R4 and R5 is hydroxy and the other is hydrogen; each of R6 and R7 represents, independently, hydrogen, C1 -C4 alkyl or fluorine; n is zero, 1,2 or3; Re represents a C3-C7 cycloalkyl ring unsubstituted or substituted by one or more substituents chosen from a') halogen; b') trihalo-C1-C6-alkyl; c') C1-C4 alkyl; d') C1-C4 alkoxy; e') phenyl; and f') phenoxy; and the pharmaceutically or veterinarily acceptable salts thereof.
The compounds and salts of the present invention have the advantage that they possess greater activity when administered orally than related compounds disclosed in the prior art, in particular those specifically disclosed in British published Application No. 2009145A. This greater activity is made possible by their better gastrointestinal absorption.
The formula reported above for the compounds covered by this invention includes all possible isomers, in particular stereoisomers, as well as their mixtures, for example mixtures of epimers. The double bond in 5 (6) is a cis double bond. In the formulae of this invention, dashed lines (l l l l l l ll l) indicate that the substituents are in the a-configuration, that is, beneath the plane of the ring or of a side chain.
Wedges () indicate that the substituents are in the ss-configuration, that is, above the plane of the ring, or of a side chain. Wavy lines ( 0 ) indicate that the substituents, when the carbon atom to which they are bound is asymmetric, may be either in the a- or ss-configuration or in the (a,ss)-configuration, that is a mixture of the two epimers. For example, the hydroxy group bound to the carbon atom in position 15 may be in the configuration ((Y), (ss) and (a,ss), that is, a mixture of the 15(a)-and 1 5(ss)-epimers.
In the same way, when the carbon atom in position 16 has two different substituents, these may be 16(a), 16(P) and 1 6((x,ss), that is a mixture of the two 16(a)-and 1 6(ss)-epimers. The symbol S or R of each chiral centre is assigned according to the sequence rule arranging the ligands in order of decreasing atomic number.
The alkyl, alkoxy and trihaloalkyl groups can be straight or branched chains.
A halogen atom is preferably fluorine, chlorine or bromine.
When one or both of R' and R" are C1-C6 alkyl, they are preferably methyl, ethyl, propyl or butyl.
When one or both of R' and Rare aryl, they are preferably phenyl.

Where in the above list of compounds and hereafter in the Examples and claims reference is made to "morpholin-amide", "piperidin-amide", "piperazine-amide" and "pyrazolidin-amide", these terms are intended to cover amide groups where the nitrogen atom of the amide group is a ring nitrogen atom in the heterocyclic group. Thus these groups are respectively
Alternative names for these groups could be N,N-ethyleneoxyethylene amide, N,N-pentamethylene amide, N,N-ethyleneaminoethylene amide and N,N-n-propyienamino amide, respectively.
The compounds of general formula (I) can be prepared by a process comprising: a) reacting a reactive derivative of an optically active or racemic compound of formula (II)
wherein when the symbol = represents a double bond, R'1 is a hydrogen atom and R2 and R'3, taken together, form an oxo group while when the symbol = represents a single bond, R'1 is hydroxy or a protecting group bound to the ring through an ethereal oxygen atom, R2 is hydrogen, R'3 is hydroxy, acyloxy or a protecting group bound to the ring through an ethereal oxygen atom or R2 and R'3, taken together, form an oxo group; one of R'4 and R'5 is hydroxy or a protecting group bound to the ring through an ethereal oxygen atom and the other is hydrogen; and Re, R7, n and Re are as defined above, with a compound of formula (III)

and Xis bromine, chlorine or iodine;Z is hydroxy or a protecting group bound to the ring through an ethereal oxygen atom; one of R'4 and R'e is hydroxy or a protecting group bound to the ring through an ethereal oxygen atom and the other is hydrogen; and Re, R7, n and Re are as defined above, with a Wittig reagent containing a group

wherein R', R", Z, R'4, R'5, R6, R7, n and R8 are as defined above, which, when the 11-and 15-hydroxy groups are in the protected form, if desired, may be esterified to give a 9&alpha;;-acyloxy derivative of a compound of formula (Vl) and then removing the protecting groups at the 11- and/or 15-positions, if present, both in a compound of formula (VI) and in its acyloxy derivatives, thus giving a compound of formula (I), wherein R3 is hydroxy or acyloxy, R2 is hydrogen, R1 is hydroxy, the symbol = represents a single bond and R', R", R4, R5, Re, R7, n and Re are as defined above; or c) oxidizing an optically active or racemic compound of formula (VII)

wherein R', R", Z', R"4, R"5, R6, R7, n and R8 are as defined above, which, in turn, is subjected to the removal of the ether protecting groups to give, depending on the reaction conditions, either a compound of formula (I), where = is a single bond, R1 is hydroxy, R2 and R3, taken together, form an oxo group and R', R", R4, Rs, Re, R7, n and Re are as defined above or a compound of formula (I), where ---- is a double bond, R1 is hydrogen, R2 and R3, taken together, form an oxo group and R', R", R4, Rg, Re, R7, n and Re are as defined above; and/or, if desired, salifying a compound of formula (I) or obtaining a free compound of formula (I) from a salt thereof and/or, if desired, converting a compound of formula (I) or a salt thereof into another compound of formula (I) or a salt thereof, and/or, if desired, resolving a mixture of isomers into the single isomers.
A protecting group bound to the ring orto the chain through an ethereal oxygen atom, i.e. an ether group, should be easily convertible to a hydroxy group under mild reaction conditions, e.g. acid hydrolysis.
Examples are acetalic ethers, enol-ethers and silyl-ethers. The preferred are
Wherein G is -O- or -CH2- and Alk represents a lower, e.g. C1-C4, alkyl group.
The reaction conditions to be used in the reaction between a reactive derivative of a compound of formula (II) and an amine of formula (III) depend, in particular, on the kind of the reagents used.
A reactive derivative of a compound of formula (II) may be, for example, a reactive ester, e.g. a Ci-Ce alkyl ester; an acyl halide, e.g. chloride or bromide; an anhydride; a mixed anhydride; an azide; or a salt, for instance a salt formed with alkali metals or alkaline earth metals.
When the reactive derivative of a compound of formula (II) is a reactive ester thereof and the compound of formula (Ill) is ammonia, the reaction may be carried out by using gaseous ammonia at a temperature ranging from about 5"C to about 40"C, preferably from 15"C to 25"C; while, when a compound of formula (III) is an amine, the reaction may be carried out, preferably, in an inert solvent, e.g. benzene, toluene, at temperatures ranging from room temperature to the reflux temperature.
When a reactive derivative of a compound of formula (II) is an acyl halide, e.g. the acyl chloride, the reaction with ammonia or a suitable amine of formula (III) may be carried out in an inert solvent, e.g. benzene ortoluene, or in an aqueous solvent, in this case in the presence of an inorganic base, e.g. NaHCO3 or Na2CO3, as acid acceptor. When in the lactol of formula (V) M is -C=C- or CH=CX- in which X is bromine or iodine, the Wittig reaction may be carried out using about 1 up to 4 moles, preferably 2, of Wittig reagent per mole of lactol and the reaction may last from about 10-20 minutes to several hours, depending on the temperature and on the concentration of the reacting mixture and on the Wittig reagent used.When in the lactol of formula (V) M is -CH=CX-, in which Xis chlorine, it is necessary, by using, for example, 1.5 to 2.5 moles of Wittig reagent per mole of lactol, to prolong the reaction time up to ten hours, or, if it is desired to use shorter reaction times, it is necessary to employ a great excess of Wittig reagent; at least 5 moles of Wittig reagent per mole of lactol, for reaction times of about 30 minutes. Therefore, when in the lactol of formula (V) M is -CH=CX-, Xis preferably bromine or iodine.
When in the lactol of formula (V) M is -CH=CX-, wherein Xis bromine, chlorine or iodine, the hydrogen atom linked to the carbon atom in the 13-position and the halogen atom linked to the carbon atom in the 14-position may be either in the trans-position, i.e. geometric trans-isomers, or in the cis-position, i.e.
geometric cis-isomers. Preferably they are in the trans-position. The Wittig reaction is performed by using the conditions usually followed for this kind of reaction, i.e. in an organic solvent, for example diethylether, hexane, dimethylsulphoxide, tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide or hexamethylphosphoramide, in the presence of a base, preferably sodium hydride and potassium tert.butoxide, at temperatures from about 0 C to the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture, preferably at room temperature or below.
The term "Wittig reagent" includes compounds of general formula
where Q represents aryl, i.e. phenyl, or Ci-Ce alkyl, i.e. ethyl; Hal is halogen, e.g. bromine or chlorine and R' and R" are as defined above.
The preparation of the Wittig reagent is discussed in detail byTrippett, Quart. Rev.: (1963) XVII, No. 4,406.
When in the lactol of formula (V) M is -CH=CX-, wherein Xis as defined above, during the reaction with the Wittig reagent, the dehydrohalogenation takes place as easily when the hydrogen atom linked to the carbon atom in the 13-position and the halogen atom linked to the carbon atom in the 14-position are in the trans-position as when they are in the cis-position. The optional acylation of the 9a-hydroxy group in a compound of formula (VI) to afford the respective 9a-acyloxy derivative may be performed in a conventional way, for example by treatment with an anhydride or a halide, e.g. a chloride of a carboxylic acid in presence of a base.
The oxidation of the 9a-hydroxy group in a compound of formula (VII) to yield the respective 9-oxo derivative may be carried out through, for example, Jones reagent (G.I. Poos and all. Am. Soc. 75,422, 1953) or Moffatt reagent (Am. Soc. 87, 5661, 1965).
The removal of the known protecting groups bound to the ring, or respectively to the chain, by an ethereal oxygen atom, for example in a compound of formula (IV) or in a compound of formula (VI) or in its 9a-acyloxy derivatives, is, whenever required, performed under conditions of mild acid hydrolysis, for example with a mono- or polycarboxylic acid, e.g. formic, acetic, oxalic, citric and tartaric acid, and in a solvent, which may be, for example, water, acetone, tetrahydrofuran, dimethoxyethane and lower aliphatic alcohols and mixture of them or with a sulfonic acid, e.g. p-toluene-sulfonic acid, in a solvent, such as a lower aliphatic alcohol, e.g. in methanol or in ethanol or with a polystyrene sulphonic resin.For example a solution of 0.1 to 0.25 N poly-carboxylic acid, in water e.g. oxalic or citric acid, is used in the presence of a suitable low boiling co-solvent which is miscible with water and which can be easily removed in vacuo at the end of the reaction. As discussed previously, removal of the protecting groups in compounds of formula (VIII) may give, depending on the reaction conditions, either a compound of formula (I) where the symbol = is a single bond, R1 is hydroxy and R2 and R3 together form an oxo group, or one in which - is a double bond, R1 is hydrogen and R2 and R3 together form an oxo group.The first may be prepared as the sole reaction product by running the reaction between 1 5"C and 40"C, while at higher temperatures, for instances, for several hours at reflux, only the second is obtained.
The separation of a mixture of isomers into the single isomers may be carried out by conventional methods. For example the separation of a mixture of epimers, e.g. 15(S)-and 15(R)-epimers, may be carried out by fractional crystallization from a suitable solvent or by chromatography, either column chromatography or high pressure liquid chromatography.
The reactive derivative of the acids of formula (II), and the lactols of formula (V) are known compounds, e.g. as described in our published U.K. patent application No. 2009145A, or in our U.K. patent specification No. 1,483,880 or may be obtained by known methods from known compounds, e.g. from those described in the above published British patent application or British patent specification.
For example, compounds having formula (V), in which M is -C-C-, may be prepared by dehydrohalogenation of the corresponding 14-halo derivatives. Dehydrohalogenation may be carried out in an aprotic solvent preferably chosen from dimethylsulphoxide, dimethylformamide and hexamethylphosphoramide by treatment with a base preferably chosen from potassium tert-butylate, an alkali metal amide and the CH3SO-CH26 anion.
Among the reaction intermediates described above, the compound of formula (IV) is new and is another object of the present invention.
The compounds of formula (I) are encompassed by the general formula of our published U.K. Patent Application No. 009 145A, but none of them is specifically described therein.
The compounds of formula (I) may be used on mammals in all the conditions where natural prostaglandins are indicated, and administered by the usual routes, e.g. orally, parenterally, rectally or by aerosol, with the advantages of superior resistence to the enzyme 15-prostaglandin dihydrogenase, which as is known, rapidly inactives natural prostaglandins. The new compounds are also endowed with more lasting therapeutic activity than natural prostaglandins, when administered by usual routes and expecially when administered by oral way. For example, the compounds of formula (I), and in particular the 9a-hydroxy derivatives, exhibit oxytocic action, that is, they may be used instead of oxytocic to induce labor or to expel a dead fetus in pregnant females, both in humans and in animals.In this application the compounds are administered either by intravenous infusion at a dose of approximately 0.01 ijg/kg/minute until the end of labor, or orally at a single or multiple doses from about 0.1 mg to about 5 mg per dose.
Further, the compounds of formula (I), particularly the 9hydroxy derivatives, show also luteolytic activity and therefore they may be used in fertility control with the advantage of a considerably reduced capacity to stimulate the smooth muscles. Therefore, the side effects of natural prostaglandins, like vomiting and diarrhea, are absent. The luteolytic activity of the new compounds was evaluated for example on rats. In this test, as shown in Table 1, a comparison was made between the activity of a compound of invention (R=NH2) and that of two compounds of the prior art after either oral (p.os) or subcutaneous (s.c.) administration.
TABLE 1
ED50 kg R s.c. p.os NH2 2.5 40 OCH3 3 90 OH 4 150 ED50 represents the minimal effective dose able to induce luteolytic activity on the 50% of the rat population under treatment.
Table I shows that the amide derivative is the most potent in stimulating a pharmacological response. In particular, although by s.c. administration the ED50 values are very near, it is evident that the amide derivative, when administered by oral route, is the most active. Therefore the amide shows a better gastrointestinal absorption, this is due to the different hydrophilic properties owned by the chemical groups bound at the C-i carbon of the prostaglandin derivatives. Another useful pharmacological property of the compounds of formula (I), particularly the 9-oxo derivatives, is their anti-ulcerogenic activity. In fact they are useful to reduce and control excessive gastric secretion in mammals.So, they reduce or eliminate the formation of gastrointestinal ulcers and, at the same time, are able to, accelerate the healing process of any ulcers already present in the gastrointestinal tract. The compounds offormula (I) are therefore also useful for reducing the undesirable gastrointestinal side-effects resulting from systemic administration of antiinflammatory prostaglandin synthetase inhibitors and may be, therefore, used for this purpose in association with them. The compounds of formula (I) in accordance with these purposes can be administered orally, parenterally, i.e. by intravenous injection or infusion, or by intramuscular injection, by inhalation or rectally. When administered orally the compounds of the invention may be used at a dosage ranging from about 1 mg to about 10 mg, preferably 5 mg, once or three times a day.In intravenous infusion, the dosage varies from approximately 0.01 p9 to 0.05 9 per kilogram of body weight per minute. The total daily dose, both by injection and by infusion, is on the order of 0.1 - 20 mg. Of course in the treatment of the above conditions, the exact treatment level depends on the case history of the patient to be treated.
The toxicity of the compounds of formula (I) was found to be quite neglible and therefore they can be safely used in therapy. The evaluation of the toxicity (as orientative acute toxicity, i.e. LD50), was carried out, e.g., as follows: nine hours food deprived mice were treated orally with single administration of increasing doses, then housed and normally fed; the LD50 was assessed on the seventh day after the treatment. For example the LD50 of the compound 5c-9Os ,15(R)-trihydroxy-16(S)-fluoro-18,19,20-trinor-17-cycloheXyl- prost-5-en-1 3-ynoic acid amide was found > 3.000 mg/kg body weight.The compounds of formula (IV) are endowed with the same pharmacological activities of the compounds of formula (I) and are administered to humans or animals for the same therapeutic purposes, at the same dosage levels and through the same routes of administration.
The pharmaceutical compositions of the invention are usually prepared following conventional methods and are administered in a pharmaceutically suitable form. For example, the solid oral forms may contain, together with the active compound, diluents, e.g., lactose, dextrose, saccharose, cellulose, corn starch and potato starch; lubricants, e.g. silica, talc, stearic acid, magnesium or calcium stearate, and/or polyethylene glycols; binding agents, e.g. starches, arabic gums, gelatin, methylcellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, polyvinyl pyrrolidone; disaggregating agents, e.g. a starch, alginic acid, alginates, sodium starch glycolate; effervescing mixtures; dyestuffs; sweeteners; wetting agents, for instance, lecithin, polysorbates, laurylsulphates; and, in general, non-toxic and pharmacologically inactive substances used in pharmaceutical formulations.Said pharmaceutical preparations may be manufactured in known manner, for example, by means of mixing, granulating, tabletting, sugar-coating, or film-coating processes. The liquid dispersions for oral administration may be e.g. syrups, emulsions and suspensions. The syrups may contain as carrier, for example, saccharose or saccharose with glycerine and/or mannitol and/or sorbitol; in particular a syrup to be administered to diabetic patients can contain as carriers only products not metabolizable to glucose, or metabolizable in very small amount to glucose, such as, sorbitol.
The suspensions and the emulsions may contain as carrier, for example, a natural gum, agar, sodium alginate, pectin, methylcellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, or polyvinyl alcohol. The suspensions or solutions for intramuscular injections may contain together with the active compound a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, e.g. sterile water, olive oil, ethyl oleate, glycols, e.g. propylene glycol, and if desired, a suitable amount of lidocaine hydrochloride. The solutions for intravenous injections or infusions may contain as carrier, for example, sterile water or preferably they may be in the form of sterile aqueous isotonic saline solutions.
The suppositories may contain together with the active compound a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, e.g. cocoa-butter, polyethylene glycol, a polyoxyethylene sorbitan fatty acid ester surfactant or lecithin.
As stated above a further way of administration may be inhalation. For such use, suitable compositions may comprise a suspension or solution of the active ingredient, preferably in the form of a salt, such as the sodium salt, in water, for administration by means of a conventional nebulizer. Alternatively, the compositions may comprise a suspension or a solution of the active ingredient in a conventional liquefied propellant, such as: dichlorodifluoromethane or dichlorotetrafluoroethane, to be administered from a pressurized container, i.e., an aerosol dispenser.
When the medicament is not soluble in the propellant, it may be necessary to add a co-solvent, such as, ethanol, dipropylene glycol, isopropyl myristate, and/or a surface-active agent to the composition, in order to suspend the medicament in the propellant medium and such surface-active agents may be any of those commonly used for this purpose, such as non-ionic surface-active agents, e.g., lecithin. Other suitable pharmaceutical form may be for example powders. The powders may be administered by means of a suitable insufflator device and in this case the fine particle sized powders of the active ingredient may be mixed with a diluent material such as lactose.

Example 2 A solution of potassium tert.butoxide (2.325 g) in dry DMSO (15 ml) under dry nitrogen was stirred; by cooling with water bath triphenylphosphonium pentanoic acid N,N-dimethyl-amide bromide (4.2 g) was added to the solution. The temperature of the reacting mixture was kept below 30"C and the addition was completed in about 15 minutes; then a solution of 3&alpha;,5&alpha;-dihydroxy-2ss-[2-bromo-3(S)-hydroxy-4(S)-fluoro-5- cyclohexyl-pent-trans-1-enyl]-1a-cyclopentane acetaldehyde-y-lactol-bis-THP- ether (1.7 g) in dry DMSO (15 ml) was added to the obtained mixture.
The reaction was completed in about 1 hour, then the mixture was quenched with water and extracted with diethyl ether.

Example 4 Potassium tert. butoxide (3.2 g) was dissolved in 20 ml of dry DMSO under dry nitrogen and triphenylphosphonium pentanoic acid amide bromide (6.3 g) was added to the solution under stirring with magnetic stirrer.
The temperature was kept below 30"C through water bath and a solution of 3a,5a-dihydrnxy-2i3-[2-brnmo- 3(S,R)-hydroxy-4(S)-fluoro-4-methyl-5-cyclopentyl-pent-trans-1 -enyl 1-1 a-cyclopentane aceta Idehyde-y- lactol-l5-trimethylsilyl ether (1.9 g) in DMSO (8 ml) was added to the previously obtained mixture. After the reaction was completed the mixture was diluted with cold water and then extracted with diethyl ether.The solvent was removed and the crude product, obtained as 15-deprotected during the Wittig reaction, was purified through chromatography thus giving 1.8 g of 5c-9a,-1 la,I 5(S,R)-trihydroxy-l 6(S)4luoro-l 6-methyl- 18,19,20-trinor-l7-cyclopentyl-prost-5-en-13-ynoicacid amide: [a]D= + 14,95; [a]35=5+ 54,2 (C=l EtOH).
