Salts of compounds according to the invention having salt-forming groups are especially pharmaceutically acceptable, non-toxic salts. For example, compounds of formula I having basic groups may form acid addition salts, for example with inorganic acids, such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid or phosphoric acid, or with suitable organic carboxylic or sulfonic acids, for example acetic acid, fumaric acid or methanesulfonic acid, or with amino acids, such as arginine or lysine. Compounds of formula I having an acidic group, for example carboxy, form, for example, metal or ammonium salts, such as alkali metal and alkaline earth metal salts, for example sodium, potassium, magnesium or calcium salts, and also ammonium salts with ammonia or suitable organic amines, such as lower alkylamines, for example triethylamine, hydroxy-lower alkylamines, for example 2hydroxyethylamine, bis(2-hydroxyethyl)amine or tris(2-hydroxyethyl)amine, basic aliphatic esters of carboxylic acids, for example 4-aminobenzoic acid 2-diethylaminoethyl ester, lower alkyleneamines, for example 1-ethylpiperidine, cycloalkylamines, for example dicyclohexylamine, or benzylamines, for example N,N’-dibenzylethylenediamine, dibenzylamine or benzyl-B-phenethylamine. Compounds of formula I having an acidic group and a basic group can also be in the form of internal salts, that is to say in zwitterionic form. -5The salts of compounds according to the invention also include complexes of compounds of formula I (Αμ A2 = hydrogen) with transition metal ions, for example copper, cobalt or manganese.
For the purposes of isolation or purification it is also possible to use pharmaceutically unacceptable salts, for example picrates or perchlorates. Only the pharmaceutically acceptable, non-toxic salts are used therapeutically and these are therefore preferred.
The compounds according to the invention have valuable, especially pharmacologically acceptable, properties. In particular they exhibit specific inhibitory activities that are of pharmacological interest. They act especially as tyrosine protein kinase inhibitors and exhibit, for example, a potent inhibition of the tyrosine kinase activity of the receptor for the epidermal growth factor (EGF) and the c-erbB2 kinase. These receptor-specific enzyme activities play a key role in the signal transmission in a large number of mammal cells, including human cells, especially epithelial cells, cells of the immune system and cells of the central and peripheral nervous system. The EGF-induced activation of the receptor-associated tyrosine protein kinase (EGF-R-PTK) is in various cell types a prerequisite for cell division and thus for the proliferation of a cell population. The addition of EGF-receptor-specific tyrosine kinase inhibitors therefore inhibits the reproduction of those cells.
The inhibition of EGF-receptor-specific tyrosine protein kinase (EGF-R-PTK) can be demonstrated, for example, using the method of C. House et al., Europ. J. Biochem. 140, 363-367 (1984). The compounds according to the invention inhibit the enzyme activity by 50 % (IC50) 0.1 -10 μΜ concentration. Furthermore, in the micromolar range too, for example, they also exhibit an inhibition of the cell growth of an EGF-dependent cell line, for example the epidermoid mouse keratinocyte cell line. In order to measure this inhibition of cell growth, the EGF-stimulated cell proliferation of epidermal Balb/MK keratinocytes is used (description of the method in Meyer, T., et al., Int. J. Cancer 43, 851 (1989)). Those cells are to a high degree dependent upon the presence of EGF for proliferation (Weissmann, B. E., Aaronson, S. A., Cell 32, 599 (1983)). In order to carry out the test, Balb/MK cells (10 000/well) are transferred to 96-well microtitre plates and incubated overnight. The test substances (dissolved in DMSO) are added in various concentrations (in dilution series) so that the final concentration of DMSO is no greater than 1 %. After the addition, the plates are incubated for three days, during which time the -6control cultures without the test substance are able to undergo at least three cell division cycles. The growth of the MK cells is measured by means of methylene blue staining.
The IC50 value is defined as that concentration of the test substance in question which results in a 50 % decrease in comparison with the control cultures without inhibitor.
In addition to inhibiting EGF-R-PTK, the compounds according to the invention also inhibit other tyrosine kinases that are involved in signal transmission mediated by trophic factors, for example the abl-kinase, kinases from the family of src-kinases and the c-erbB2 kinase (HER-2), and also serine/threonine kinases, for example protein kinase C, all of which have a role to play in growth regulation and transformation in the cells of mammals, including humans.
The inhibition of the c-erbB2 tyrosine kinase (HER-2) can be demonstrated, for example, analogously to the method of C. House et al., Europ. J. Biochem. 140, 363-367 (1984) used for EGF-R-PTK. The c-erbB2 kinase can be isolated, and its activity determined, in accordance with known protocols, for example in accordance with T. Akiyama et al., Science 232, 1644 (1986).
The compounds according to the invention are therefore also suitable for the inhibition of processes mediated by these and related tyrosine kinases.
The compounds according to the invention are therefore useful, for example, in the treatment of benign or malignant tumours. They are able to bring about the regression of tumours and to prevent the formation of tumour metastases and the growth of micrometastases. In particular, they can be used in epidermal hyperproliferation (psoriasis), in the treatment of neoplasias of epithelial character, for example mammary carcinoma, and in leukaemias. In addition, the compounds can be used in the treatment of diseases of the immune system and in the treatment of inflammation insofar as protein kinases are involved in those disorders. The compounds can also be used in the treatment of disorders of the central or peripheral nervous system insofar as signal transmission by protein kinases is involved.
The compounds according to the invention can be used both on their own and in combination with other pharmacologically active substances, for example together with (a) inhibitors of enzymes of polyamine synthesis, (b) inhibitors of protein kinase C, (c) inhibitors of other tyrosine kinases, (d) cytokines, (e) negative growth regulators, for -7example TGF-β or EFN-β, (f) aromatase inhibitors, (g) anti-oestrogens or (h) cytostatics.

In the following, more detailed description of the processes, the symbols Arj, Ar2, Ab A2, X, R, R3 and R4 are each as defined under formulae I and II unless indicated to the contrary. - 12Process (a): The reaction according to process (a) corresponds to the aminolysis, known per se, of phthalic acid diesters with ammonia or primary amines. The reaction with activated phthalic acid diesters, for example the di(p-nitrophenyl) ester, normally takes place at room temperature, but the reaction with di-lower alkyl esters generally takes place only at high temperatures. Preferably the dimethyl ester is used. Preferred is the reaction of di-lower alkyl esters in a solvent, especially in a high-boiling alcohol, for example a diol, such as ethylene glycol, at temperatures of from 100 to 150°C, for example approximately 120°C, or the reaction of the lower alkyl esters with ammonia or the respective amine of formula II is carried out at the same temperatures in the presence of a solvent, for example an alcohol, such as a lower alkanol, for example methanol or ethanol, or in the absence of a solvent, in an autoclave at elevated pressure.
The starting compounds of formula II are prepared, for example, by reacting a cyclohexadiene of formula V Me3SiO COOR3 I X (V) Me3SiOX^/^ COOR4 wherein Me is methyl, with an aniline of formula VI AHN-Ar (VI) wherein A is especially hydrogen or lower alkyl, under acid catalysis [see Matlin, Stephen A. and Barron, Kenneth, J. Chem. Res. Synop. 8,246-247 (1990)].
The preparation of the compounds of formula V is effected, for example, by means of a Diels-Alder reaction and is likewise described in the literature mentioned.
For the preparation of asymmetrical compounds of formula II, wherein Ax and A2 and/or Arj and Ar2 are different, for example compounds of formula V can be reacted - for example stepwise - with two different compounds of formula VI and the desired compounds of formula II can be isolated by chromatographic separation. -13Furthermore, for example, compounds of formula II wherein Aj = A2 = H can be reacted in a ratio of 1:1 with a lower alkyl-introducing agent, for example methyl iodide, yielding asymmetrical compounds of formula II wherein A! = lower alkyl and A2 = H. If the lower alkyl-introducing agent is used in excess, for example 10:1, then symmetrical compounds of formula II wherein Aj = A2 = lower alkyl are obtained.
Process (b): The reaction according to process (b) corresponds to the aminolysis, known per se, of phthalic acid anhydrides, for example with ammonia or primary amines at relatively high temperatures or with hexamethyldisilazane and methanol at room temperature [Davis, Peter D. and Bit, Rino A., Tetrahedron Lett. 31, 5201-5204 (1990)].
The starting compounds of formula IV are prepared, for example, by reacting a compound of formula VII with an acid anhydride of formula VIII, (R5CO)(R5'CO)0, wherein R5 and R5' are each independently of the other hydrogen or lower alkyl, but are not both hydrogen.
The compounds of formula VII can be obtained, for example, by hydrolysis, for example in an acidic or alkaline medium, of a corresponding compound of formula II.
Compounds of formula I can be converted into different compounds of formula I in a manner known per se.
For example, a compound of formula I wherein the group -C(=X)- is -C(=O)- can be reacted with a suitable reagent in order to obtain a different compound of formula I wherein the group -C(=X)- is -C(=S)-, -CH2- or -C(=CR1R2)-. A suitable reagent for the conversion of -C(=O)- into -C(=S)- is, for example, the Lawesson reagent (= 2,4-bis(4methoxyphenyl)-2,4-dithioxo-l,3,2,4-dithiaphosphetane), the reaction being carried out, for example, in a halogenated hydrocarbon, such as dichloromethane, at temperatures of from 30°C to the reflux temperature, especially at reflux temperature. Suitable systems - 14for the conversion of -C(=O)- into -CH2- are, for example, LiAlH^tetrahydrofuran or zinc amalgam/HCl/ethanol. The conversion of -C(=O)- into -C(=CRiR2)- is effected, for example, by reaction with a strong base, for example LDA (lithium diisopropylamide) and then with a Grignard reagent of the formula HCR1R2MgHal (Hal = halogen, for example iodine).
Furthermore, for example, compounds of formula I wherein R is hydrogen can be converted by alkylation, for example with lower alkyl or aryl-lower alkyl halides, after treatment with suitable bases, for example sodium hydride or potassium tert-butoxide, into different compounds of formula I wherein R is lower alkyl or aryl-lower alkyl.
Moreover, for example, compounds of formula I wherein Aj and/or A2 are hydrogen can be converted by reaction with suitable reagents into different compounds of formula I wherein Aj and/or A2 are lower alkyl, aryl, acyl, lower alkylsulfonyl or arylsulfonyl.
A suitable method for the introduction of Aj and/or A2 = lower alkyl is, for example, treatment with the base LDA and subsequent reaction with a di-lower alkyl ether or a lower alkyl halide. Under those conditions a group -N(-R)- = -NH- which may be present in the molecule is alkylated only slightly or not at all.
For the introduction of A! and/or A2 = acyl, lower alkylsulfonyl or arylsulfonyl, the starting compound can be reacted, for example, again first with LDA and then with an acylating agent, for example acetyl chloride, or with an agent that introduces the lower alkylsulfonyl or arylsulfonyl group, for example methylsulfonyl chloride or p-toluenesulfonyl chloride.
Compounds of formula I wherein Arj and/or Ar2 are aryl, especially phenyl or naphthyl, substituted by halogen, preferably by bromine, can be converted into the corresponding derivatives in which one or all of the halogen atoms present in aryl Arj and/or Ar2 have been replaced by cyano, for example by reaction with a cyanide salt of a transition metal, especially CuCN, at temperatures of from 50 to 150°C, preferably from 60 to 140°C, in an inert polar solvent, such as an N,N-di-lower alkyl-lower alkanecarboxylic acid amide, for example dimethylformamide, with or without the subsequent addition of a catalyst, for example a transition metal halide, such as iron(IH) chloride, in aqueous solution (see also Rosenmund et al., Ber. 52, 1749 (1916); von Braun et al., Ann. 488, 111 (1931)). -15In compounds of formula I, the radicals Ar! and/or Ar2 that are unsubstituted or substituted aryl, preferably unsubstituted phenyl or naphthyl, can be nitrated independently of one another, with the introduction of one or more nitro groups, for example under conditions customary for the introduction of a nitro group into aromatic compounds, for example with concentrated or 100 % nitric acid at temperatures of from 0 to 100°C, preferably from 10 to 40°C, in an inert solvent, for example an organic acid anhydride, such as acetic anhydride. If the nitration results in several different products in which the number of nitro groups and their position(s) are different, they can be separated according to customary methods, for example by column chromatography.
Nitro substituents in radicals Ar! and/or Ar2 can be reduced to amino groups, for example by hydrogenation under customary conditions, for example hydrogenation in the presence of a hydrogenation catalyst suitable for the selective reduction of nitro groups, such as Raney nickel, in an inert solvent, for example a cyclic or acyclic ether, such as tetrahydrofuran, under normal pressure or under elevated pressure of up to 5 bar.
Compounds of the formula I with etherified hydroxy groups, for example, with lower alkoxy residues as substituents within Art and/or Ar2, can be converted into the corresponding hydroxy-substituted compounds of the formula I by ether cleavage. The ether cleavage takes place under conditions known per se, for example in the presence of hydrohalic acids, such as hydrobromic or hydroiodic, in the presence or absence of solvents, such as carbonic acids, for example, lower alkyl-carboni acids, such as acetic acid, at temperatures between 20 °C and the reflux temperature of the reaction mixture, or preferentially under mild conditions with boron halides, especially boron tribromide, in an inert solvent, for example a halogenated hydrocarbon, such as methylen cloride or chloroform, at temperatures between -80 and 0 °C, preferably between -50 and 20 °C.
Free compounds of formula I obtainable in accordance with the process having saltforming properties can be converted into their salts in a manner known per se; compounds having basic properties can be converted into their salts, for example, by treatment with acids or suitable derivatives thereof, and compounds having acidic properties can be converted into their salts, for example, by treatment with bases or suitable derivatives thereof.
Mixtures of isomers obtainable in accordance with the invention can be separated into the - 16individual isomers in a manner known per se; racemates can be separated, for example, by the formation of salts with optically pure salt-forming reagents and separation of the diastereoisomeric mixture so obtainable, for example by fractional crystallisation.
The above-mentioned reactions can be carried out under reaction conditions known per se, in the absence or, usually, in the presence of solvents or diluents, preferably those solvents or diluents which are inert towards the reagents used and are solvents therefor, in the absence or presence of catalysts, condensation agents or neutralising agents, and, depending upon the nature of the reaction and/or the reactants, at reduced, normal or elevated temperature, for example in a temperature range of from approximately -80°C to approximately 200°C, preferably from approximately -20°C to approximately 150°C, for example at the boiling point of the solvent used, under atmospheric pressure or in a closed vessel, where appropriate under pressure, and/or in an inert atmosphere, for example under a nitrogen atmosphere.
As a result of the close relationship between the compounds of formula I in free form and in the form of their salts, hereinbefore and hereinafter any reference to the free compounds or their salts should be understood as meaning also the corresponding salts or free compounds, respectively, when the compounds contain salt-forming groups, for example basic groups, such as amino or imino groups, and also those groups which contain no more than one unsaturated carbon atom, such as the groups -NA1Ar1 and/or -NA2Ar2 at the carbon atom of the central phenyl ring, wherein Arx and A! and/or Ar2 and A2 are not bonded via an unsaturated carbon atom, and/or acidic groups, such as carboxy or sulfo (SO3H).
The compounds, including their salts, can also be obtained in the form of hydrates, or their crystals may include, for example, the solvent used for crystallisation.
In the processes of this invention it is preferable to use those starting materials which result in the compounds described at the beginning as being especially valuable.
The invention relates also to those forms of the process in which a compound obtainable as intermediate at any stage of the process is used as starting material and the remaining process steps are carried out, or in which a starting material is formed under the reaction conditions or is used in the form of a derivative, for example a salt, thereof. - 17The present invention relates also to pharmaceutical compositions that comprise one of the compounds of formula I as active ingredient.
