Abstract

(S)(-) Betaxolol of the formula: and its pharmaceutically-acceptable acid addition salts, are new compounds which are, in particular, useful for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases and glaucoma. (S)(-) Betaxolol can be prepared by reacting 4-(2-cyclopropylmethoxyethyl)phenol with the tosyl derivative of (S)-2-phenyl-5-hydroxymethyl-3- isopropyloxazolidine.

Description

The present invention relates to the S isomer of betaxolol, its preparation and its application in therapy, e.g. pharmaceutical compositions containing it.
The compound of the invention is the (S)(-) isomer of betaxolol corresponding to the formula: and its pharmaceutically-acceptable acid addition salts· The compound of the invention is prepared, according to a feature of the invention, by the process 10 which comprises reacting 4-(2-cyclopropylroethoxyethyl )phenol with the (S)-oxazolidine of the formula: II ffl20SO2C6Hi(CH3 ? r \ - 2 in an organic solvent, such as dimethylformamide, in the presence of a base such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide or, preferably, sodium hydride. <9 k-(2-Cyclopropylmethoxyethyl)-phenol can be 5 prepared in the manner described in Patent Specification * No. 43645.
Pharmaceutically-acceptable acid addition salts of the S isomer of betaxolol, e.g. methanesulphonates, mandelates, fumarates, oxalates, maleates, malonates, citrates, hydrochlorides, hydrobromides and hydroiodides, may be obtained by methods known per se. for example by treatment of the isomer base with the appropriate acid in a solvent medium, e.g· an alkanol or ether, or mixtures thereof· By the term 'methods known per se* as used in this specification is meant methods heretofore used or described in the literature.
The Example which follows illustrates the process of the invention· EXAMPLE 22.lg (0.1 mol) of (S)-2-phenyl-5-hydroxymethyl3-isopropyloxazolidine of the formula: ί * - 3 ('V-CeHs 111 B—j—A s s ch2oh (described by Baldwin et al.. J. Med. Chem· 1979, Vol· 22, No. 11) are dissolved in 37.5 al of pyridine, and 19.Og of tosyl chloride are added in portions, the temperature being kept at about 25°C· When the addition has ended, the reaction mixture is stirred for 2 hours at ambient tenperature and a solution of 13.8g of K2C03 in 75 ml of water is then added cautiously. The mixture is extracted 3 times with 100 ml of CH2C12, the organic phase is dried with MgSO^ and filtered, and the filtrate is evaporated at a temperature below 50°C, initially under a water pump vacuum and then under 0.1 non of mercury. This gives 33-9g of an oil, which is used in the crude state for the subsequent reaction.
A solution of 17.3g (0.09 mol) of 4-(2-cyclopropy lme thoxyethyl)-phenol in 50 ml of dimethylformamide (DMF) is added dropwise to a suspension of 4.8g (0.1 mol) of 50% NaH in 50 ml of DMF, and the mixture is stirred until the evolution of hydrogen has ceased. The mixture is cooled using a bath of iced water, and a solution of * - 4 33.9g of the previously obtained oil in 50 ml of DMF is added in portions; the mixture is then heated at 60-70°C for 2 hours· The mixture is left to stand overnight and heated again at a temperature of about 60°C for 4 hours.
The mixture is cooled, poured onto ice and extracted twice with diethyl ether. The ether phase is washed with water, dried over MgSO^ and filtered, and the filtrate is evaporated. The oil is taken up in water and the mixture is acidified with 50 ml of concentrated HCI, stirred for 1/2 hour at ambient temperature and then extracted twice with diethyl ether.
The aqueous phase is rendered alkaline with sodium hydroxide and extracted with diethyl ether. The ether phase is washed with water, dried over MgSO^ and filtered, and the filtrate is evaporated.
The residual oil is taken up in diethyl ether, a stoichiometric amount of maleic acid is added to this solution, and the maleate salt of the (S)(—) isomer of betaxolol crystallises slowly. The maleate melts at 96°C, [a]2J = -16.2° (C = 1.87 %; CH^H) (S)(-)-Betaxolol is prepared from its maleate I ? salt by alkalinisation with a dilute solution of sodium hydroxide. It is an oil; [a]2® =-0.5° (C = 3.56%, CH30H) - 5 The compound of the invention was subjected to pharmacological tests in the cardiovascular field and in the treatment of glaucoma· (1) Effect of (S) (-)-betaxolol maleate on the chronotropic * and inotropic responses of guinea-pig atrium to isoprenaline, after depletion of the catecholamines.
The method used is similar to that recommended by O'Donnell and Nhnstall (1979).
Guinea-pigs (Hartley), weighing 250 to 300g, are given a subcutaneous injection of syrosingopine (5.0 mg/kg) approximately 18 hours before the start of the experiment, in order to cause depletion of catecholamines in the peripheral tissue reserves. The guinea-pigs are sacrificed by dislocation of the cervix and the whole hearts are removed and placed in a Krebs solution, at ambient temperature (21°C), oxygenated with a mixture containing 95% of 02 and 5% of C02. The composition of the solution, in mM, is: NaCl 114.0; KC1 4.7; CaCl2 2.5; ΚΗ2Ρ0^ 1.2; MgSO^ 1.2; NaHCO^ 25.0; glucose 11.7. Ascorbic acid (1.1 raM) is added to the isoprenaline solutions in order to reduce the oxidation thereof. After the two atria have been separated, each is attached by its base to a hook fixed to a support. A wire is then attached to the apex of each atrium, and the atria are immersed in an isolated * organ bath containing 30 ml of Krebs solution at 37 C.
They are connected to a displacement force transducer * (Grass, model TFO3 C) by the wire attached to the apex, and are placed under a rest tension of 0.5g. The right atrium beats spontaneously whereas the left atrium is driven electrically hy a current consisting of 2 millisecond 5 pulses of about 30 V (supramaximum voltage) delivered 120 tiroes/minute. The atrial rhythm and the contractile force are recorded on a polygraph (Grass 79B).
The atria are left to stand in the isolated organ bath for 30 minutes. The mechanisms of neuronal and extraneuronal Ϊ0 capture of the catecholamines are then blocked by keeping the atria in contact with phenoxybenzamine (50 μΗ) for 30 minutes· After washing with Krebs solution, each preparation is sensitised hy adding isoprenaline (0.3 μΜ) 20 minutes before the first curve of concentration-effect of the 15 isoprenaline is plotted. The isoprenaline is added to the bath in cumulative increasing concentrations (semi-log interval)- The maximum changes in the contractile force and the heart rate which are caused by each dose are the values used for analysing the results.
Approximately 45 minutes after the first curve of concentration-response to the isoprenaline has been plotted, when the parameters studied have returned to their initial values, the preparations are immersed for 30 minutes in a r Krebs solution containing (S)(-)-betaxolol maleate (0.3 μΜ).
Each change in the atrial rhythm or the contractile force which is generated by the isoprenaline is expressed - 7 as a percentage of the response of the atrium to a aupramaximum dose of isoprenaline. A more detailed analysis of the results is only carried out if the second dose/effect curve is parallel to the control curve and if the mayyna of the two curves do not differ more than ± 20%.
The pA2 values are calculated according to van Rossum (1963)· The average pA^ values are compared by variance analysis· The differences between the averages are considered to be significant when t corresponds to p<0.05.
The pAj value of the compound of the invention is - 8.76 ±0.06 in respect of the chronotropic effects on the isoprenaline (spontaneously beating atrium), and - 8.78 + 0.12 in respect of the inotropic effects (electrically stimulated atrium) of the isoprenaline. (2) Effect of (S)(-,-betaxolol maleate on glaucoma.
Drops are prepared by dissolving a sufficient amount of the maleate salt of the compound of the invention in distilled water so as to give solutions containing 0.1%, 0.5%, 0.75% and 2% of compound· 2 drops of solution are a&ninistered to a normal rabbit eye and to an ocularly hypertensive rabbit eye. The intraocular pressure of the two rabbit eyes (normal and ocularly hypertensive) is reduced significantly and measured at intervals of 6 hours.
The S isomer of betaxolol and its pharmaceutically( acceptable salts can be used for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases and, in particular, for coronary - 8 complaints, complaints affecting the myocardium and disorders of the heart rate, and for the treatment of glaucoma· The invention consequently includes pharmaceutical 5 compositions containing (S)(-) betaxolol, or a pharmaceutically-acceptable. acid addition salt thereof, in combination with any excipient suitable for oral, rectal or parenteral administration.
Examples of suitable pharmaceutical forms are tablets, coated tablets, gelatine capsules, ordinary capsules, cachets, solutions and suspensions to be taken orally, suppositories and stabilised and/or buffered injectable solutions, prepared in advance or for immediate use.
The daily dosage can range from 5 to 50 mg of (S)(-) betaxolol.
For the treatment of glaucoma, the concentration of the eye solutions can range from 0.25 to 3% of (S)(«) betaxolol-
