Abstract

Benzamidoalkyl mercaptans having the formula: in which -alk- represents a C2-4 alkylene radical, R represents a hydrogen or halogen atom or a lower-alkyl, lower-alkoxy, amino, carboxyl or trifluoromethyl radical, n is one to three, and when n is more than one, R may be the same or different in various positions relative to one another in the ring, are useful as mucolytic agents.

Description

The present invention is concerned with certain mercaptans possessing mucolytic activity and is particularly concerned with certain benzamidoalkyl mercaptans for use in controlling and combating mucus build-up in an animal exhibiting or suffering from lung congestion, and compositions containing those compounds.
A. L. Sheffner, Ann. N.Y. Acad. Sci. 106,298-310 (1963) discloses sulphhydryl-containing compounds having mucolytic activity and established the use of mucin mucoprotein as a test media. None of the compounds disclosed by Sheffner were of the benzamidoalkyl mercaptan type. T. A. Martin et al., in U. S. Patent Specification No. 4,005,222 disclose mucolytic anilido alkyl mercaptans distinguishable in part from compounds of the instant invention in having the nitrogen interposed between the carbonyl anc phenyl groups rather than between the carbonyl and alkyl groups.
Benzamido-ethylmercaptan is a compound known from the disclosure of A.A. Goldberg et al., J. Chem. Soc. 1948, 1919-26, but there has been no disclosure that it has mucolytic activity.
The compounds of the present invention are benzamidoalkyl mercaptans illustrated generally by the following formula: C-NH-alk-SH Formula I -3wherein: R represents a hydrogen, or a halogen atom, or a lower-alkyl, lower alkoxy, amino, carboxy or trifluoromethyl group; -alk- represents a straight or branched divalent alkylene radical of 2 to 4 carbon atoms; and n is from 1 to 3, and when n is more than 1, R may be the same or different in various positions relative to one another in the ring; for use in combating mucus build-up in a living warmblooded animal suffering from lung congestion.
The compounds have mucolytic activity and are useful in dissolving and diluting mucus in warm-blooded animals exhibiting or suffering from lung congestion.
The compounds described hereinafter and represented by the foregoing Formula 1 have been shown by a modification of the method of S. J. Corne et al., J. Phys 242, 116 (1974) as described hereinbelow to have mucolytic activity in animals.
Compounds for which mucolytic activity was found to be of the same order of magnitude as N-acetyl-Lcysteine on rat stomach mucus are the preferred compounds which are as follows: (1) 4-chlorobenzamido-ethylmercaptan (2) benzamido-ethylmercaptan (3) 4-methylbenzamido-ethylmercaptan (4) 4-methoxybenzamido-ethylmercaptan 8 7 9 3 - 4 The method used to demonstrate the mucolytic activity of the compounds of the present invention is as follows: Female Sprague-Dawley (Charles River Labs) rats weighing 120-180 g are fasted for 16 hours on wire, housed two animals per cage. To minimize coprophagia, the lights are left on during the fast. Two cc of water are given orally to each rat to minimize internal debris. Thirty minutes later the rats are sacrificed by cervical dislocation. The stomachs are removed, trimmed of excess tissue and the epithelial portion discarded. The glandular portion is cut sufficiently along the greater and lesser curvature to cause eversion of the stomach before placing it in the drug solution. Stomachs with a fecal odour or containing visible fecal matters are discarded. Stomachs are placed in 10 cc of an aqueous solution of polyethylene glycol of MW 300 (50% PEG-300-H20) containing 2.5 mg of the test compound/ml for 40 minutes. After this exposure to the drug the stomachs are placed in 10 cc of Alcian (Trade Mark) Blue aqueous dye solution (Solution 1 - prepared as described below) for 90 minutes and the dye complexes with the stomach mucus. After two successive 10-minute washes in 10 cc of 0.25 M aqueous sucrose (Solution 2 - prepared as described below), the stomachs are placed in lOcc of 0.5M aqueous magnesium chloride (Solution 3 - prepared as - 5 described below) for one hour to remove the complexed dye. The supernatant magnesium chloride solution is shaken with 10 cc of diethyl ether in a 60 cc separatory funnel to remove lipids. The aqueous phase is drained into a Spectronic (Trade Mark) 20 Tube and the percent transmission is read at 605mp in a Spectronic 20 Spectrophotometer. The percent transmission is converted to pg/ml of Alcian Blue from a standard curve (P.
Whiteman, Biochem. J. 131, 351-57 (1973)). Each drug or drug vehicle (control) is tested on three stomachs. Mean differences between treated and control values are expressed as percentages.
The aqueous Alcian Blue solution referred to as Solution 1 herein contains 0.05% w/v of Alcian Blue dye.
It is made up by dissolving 54.8 g of sucrose (0.15 M) and 6.8 of sodium acetate with stirring in 900 cc of deionized water using a magnetic stirrer. The pH is adjusted to 5.8. 500 mg of Alcian Blue 8GN (supplied by Matheson, Coleman & Bell as #8E13) is then added and the mixture topped up to one litre in a volumetric flask with deionized water and the solution stored in a refrigerator. The solution should only be used for 1 week after being made up.
The aqueous sucrose solution referred to as 8 7 9 3 - 6 Solution 2 herein is made up by dissolving 85.6 g of sucrose in deionized water in a 1 litre volumetric flask and then making up with deionized water to 1 litre. The solution should only be used for 1 week after being made up.
The aqueous 0.5 M magnesium chloride solution referred to as Solution 3 herein is made up by dissolving 101.7g of MgCl 6H 0 (A.C.S.) in deionized water in a one litre volumetric flask and then making up to 1 litre with deionized water.
It is an object of the present invention to provide benzamidoalkyl mercaptans for use in combating mucus build-up in a living warm-blooded animal suffering from or exhibiting lung congestion.
A further object is to provide novel pharmaceutical compositions for combating mucus in warm-blooded animals.
In the definition of the symbols and in Formula 1 given above and where they appear elsewhere throughout the claims and the specification hereof, the following terms have the following significance.
The lower-alkyl and lower-alkoxy substituents each have from one to four carbon atoms which can be arranged as straight or branched chains.

The pharmaceutical compositions of this invention comprise benzamidoalkyl mercaptans in an amount sufficient to provide effective action against lung congestion in mammalian subjects when applied topically as an inhalant - 20 together with an acceptable carrier therefor.
The compounds of Formula 1 are administered in an amount sufficient to induce liquefaction of mucus in the respiratory tract of warm-blooded animals in need thereof.
Intratracheal administration of the compounds of Formula 1 may be effected by various inhalation or instillation means such as nose drops, sprays, or aerosols. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable liquid carriers are water and polyethyleneglycol-300(MW 300). Another suitable means of administration is by insufflation of micronized particles or ultra-fine powder utilizing only the energy of the inspiratory action or by use of aerosol propellants. Generally, the amount of the compound in the inhalant composition will vary from about 0.5 to 75 weight % depending on the type of carrier, i.e. liquid or solid.
Solutions or suspensions having about 0.5 to 20% by weight, preferably 5-10 wt. %, of the mucolytic agent of formula 1 are suitable for application by spraying with for example an atomizer, nebulizer, or aerosol.
Dusts containing about 25-75% or more active agent in micronized form are also suitable, about 50% being preferable. An example of a pharmaceutically acceptable solid diluent and carrier for the micronized powder is lactic acid or lactose.
It will be readily apparent to those skilled in the - 21 medical arts that the correct dosage of a compound to be employed with any particular mammalian subject is determined by the severity of the condition requiring mucolytic therapy, as well as the age, sex, weight and general physical condition of the subject. Individual doses ranging from 5-100 mg for inhalation by man are suitable and may be required for the mucolytic effect.
The pharmaceutical compositions may take the form of dilutions of the micronized compounds in dusts or solutions and suspensions in liquids suitably dispersed for inhalation.
Example 17 Powder for Administration via Inhaler Device. 4-chlorobenzamido ethyl mercaptan of Example 7, micronized 2.5 g Lactose powder 2,5 g The powders are blended aseptically and filled into hard gelatin capsules each containing 50 mg of the mixture.
This is suitable for dispersion into the inspired breath by means of a breath-operated inhaler device containing means for rupture of the capsule wall prior to dosing.
