According to a further aspect of the present invention there is provided a method of preparinga piperazine derivative of formula (X), or an acid-addition salt thereof, which comprises:
(A) condensing a compound of formula (VI):
I^-Q^cH^-tCHR3) ^-L (VI):
where L represents a leaving group,with a compound of formula (VII):
HN N-R2 (VII) w
(B) (i) reducing a compound of formula:
Rl-Q-(CH2)m-i-c—/ Vr2 (VIII) to form a compound in which n is Oj or
to form a compound in which n is 1; or (C) cyclising a compound of formula (X):
R1 - 7. — (CH„) — (CHR3) — N 2 m n
N-R (X)
4730 where Z. is a group cyclisable to Q to form a compound of formula (I) in which Q is oxazole.
The above condensation (A) is preferably carried out in the presence of a proton acceptor such as a base, for example, sodium carbonate. Polar solvents such as alkanols, e.g. ethanol, are suitable solvents for the reaction which is advantageously accomplished by heating under reflux. The leaving group L may be any radical known to be effective in such condensation reactions but it should be mentioned that halogen atoms, for instance chlorine, or methylsulphonyl or substituted benzene sulphonyl groups give good results in this reaction. The reaction is preferably effected in the temperature range from 20 to 150°C. Compounds of formula (VI) are either known (see J.A.C.S. 56 470-1(1934) and 53 1470-3(1931)) or can be prepared . by known techniques.
Reduction of the amide of formula (VIII) can be effected using chemical reducing agents such as l^H^or lithium aluminium hydride. Ethereal solvents such as tetrahjirofuran arc of value in effecting the reaction which is preferably carried out at a temperature range from 0 to 80°C. The amides of formula (VIII) can be prepared by reaction of an acid chloride (prepared for instance from the corresponding acid by reaction with thionyl chloride) of formula:
— C —Cl
II with the phenylpiperazine of formula:
ΛΛ
NR'
The reduction of compounds of formula (IX) can be carried out using the reaction conditions described in J.A.C.S. 93, 2897 - 2904 (1971) or in Synthesis 135-146* (1975). The reduction is preferably accomplished using sodium cyanoborohydride but other forms of reduction, for example, using catalytic hydrogenation or other suitable chemical reducing agents are possible. As before, the reduction is preferably accomplished in the temperature range of from 0 to 80°c.
Compounds of formula (X) are normally prepared by reaction of the corresponding carbonyl compound of formula:
Rl-Q-(CH2)m-l-V = ° with the appropriate phenyl base of formula
ΛΛ
V7 in the presence of a proton donor, such as acetic acid.
The nature of Z in the above cyclisation, reaction (C) and the reaction conditions necessary to effect the desired ring-closure will be well-known to those skilled in the art. In case of doubt recourse may be had to standard treatises in the art such as Chemical Reviews, 75, 389-437 (l975)and Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry 17 (1974).
Preferably, Z is a group of formula:
—CO-CH2—NH—CO—
Thus, compounds of formula (XI)
R1 - CO - CH- - HH - CO - (CH.) -(CHR3) - N 2 2 m n ' (XI) can be cyclised to compounds of formula:
R^^O
CH2)m - (CHR3)n
using dehydrating agents such as polyphosphoric acid, phosphorous oxychloride or concentrated sulphuric acid. The reaction is preferably accomplished at a temperature range of from 80 to 180°C.
Compounds of formula (XI) may be prepared by reacting the corresponding bromo derivative of formula:
R1 - CO - CH. - HH - CO - (CH-) - (CHR3) - Br (XII)
Z z in n with the corresponding base of formula *4730
in the presence of an acid scavenger such as sodium carbonate.
The compounds of formula (XII) may themselves be prepared by reaction of the amine of formula:
RlCOC« NIi2 with the corresponding acid chloride of formula
C1CO(CH„) - (CHR3) Cl 2 m n using dimethylformamide as solvent
The compounds of formula (I) produced by the foregoing processes may be isolated per se or in acid-addition salt form.
The acid-addition salts are preferably the pharmaceutically acceptable, non-toxic addition salts with suitable acids, such as those with inorganic acids, for example hydrochloric, hydrobromic, nitric, sulphuric or phosphoric acids, or with organic acids, such as organic carboxylic acids, for example, glycollic, maleic, hydroxymaleic, malic, tartaric, citric, salicylic, oacetoxybenzoic, nicotinic or isonicotinic acid, or organic sulphonic acids for example methane sulphonic, ethane sulphonic, 2-hydroxyethane sulphonic, tolucne-j>-sulphonie, or naphthalene-2-sulphonic acid. Apart from pharmaceutically acceptable acid-addition salts, other salts are also included within the scope of acid-addition salts such as, for example, those with picric or oxalic acid; they may serve as intermediates in the purification of the compounds or in the preparation of other, for example, pharmaceutically acceptable, acid-addition salts, or are useful for identification, characterisation or purification of the bases.
A resulting acid-addition salt may be converted into the free compound according to known methods, for example, by treating it with a base, such as with a metal hydroxide or alkoxide, for example, an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal hydroxide, for example, lithium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide or calcium hydroxide; with a metal carbonate, such as an alkali metal or an alkaline earth metal carbonate or hydrogen carbonate; with ammonia; or with a hydroxyl ion exchange preparation, or with any other suitable reagent.
A resulting acid-addition salt may also be converted into another acidaddition salt according to known methods; for example, a salt with an inorganic acid may he treated with a metal salt, for example, a sodium, barium or silver salt, of an acid in a suitable diluent, in which a resulting inorganic salt is insoluble and is thus removed from the reaction medium. An acid addition salt may also he converted into another acid-addition salt by treatment with an anion exchange preparation.
According to a further aspect of the invention there is provided a pharmaceutical formulation which comprises a compound of formula (I), or'a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof, associated with a pharmaceuticallyacceptable carrier therefor.
Compounds of formula (I) and their pharmaceutically-acceptable salts have been shown to be useful in the prophylactic and therapeutic treatment of immediate hypersensitivity diseases including asthma in mammals. The compound's have low toxicity.
The compounds or compositions of the present invention may be administered by various routes and for this purpose may be formulated in a variety of forms. Thus the compounds or compositions may be administered orally, rectally, topically or parenterally (e.g. by injection or by continuous or discontinuous intravenous infusion) in the form of, for example, tablets, lozenges, sub-lingual tablets, sachets, cachets, elixirs, suspensions; suppositories, aerosols, ointments (for example, containing from 1 to 10% by weight of the active compound in a suitable base) soft and hard gelatin capsules, injection solutions and suspensions in physiologically acceptable media, and sterile packaged powders adsorbed onto a support material for making injection solutions.
