Description

Denne oppfinnelse angår fremstilling av nye, terapeutisk virksomme 6,21-dimethyl-19-nor-pregna-diener med den generelle formel I: This invention relates to the production of new, therapeutically effective 6,21-dimethyl-19-nor-pregna-dienes with the general formula I:

hvor R er hydrogen eller syreresten av en alifatisk eller aromatisk carboxylsyre med 1-7 carbonatomer. where R is hydrogen or the acid residue of an aliphatic or aromatic carboxylic acid with 1-7 carbon atoms.

I den generelle formel I kan substituenten R f.eks. være acetyl, propionyl, butyryl, pentanoyl, hexanoyl eller benzoyl eller en syrerest avledet fra en umettet syre, som f.eks. senecinsyre eller 2-methyl-pentensyre. In the general formula I, the substituent R can e.g. be acetyl, propionyl, butyryl, pentanoyl, hexanoyl or benzoyl or an acid residue derived from an unsaturated acid, such as e.g. senecic acid or 2-methyl-pentenoic acid.

Spesielt angår oppfinnelsen fremstilling av de føl-gende forbindelser, som for tiden foretrekkes: 17a-hydroxy-6,21-dimethyl-3,20-dioxo-19-nor-pregna-4,6-dien, 17a-acetoxy-6,21-dimethyl-3,20-dioxo-19-nor-pregna-4,6-dien, 17a-butyryloxy-6,21-dimethyl-3,20-dioxo-19-nor-pregna-4,6-dien, In particular, the invention relates to the production of the following compounds, which are currently preferred: 17a-hydroxy-6,21-dimethyl-3,20-dioxo-19-nor-pregna-4,6-diene, 17a-acetoxy-6, 21-dimethyl-3,20-dioxo-19-nor-pregna-4,6-diene, 17a-butyryloxy-6,21-dimethyl-3,20-dioxo-19-nor-pregna-4,6-diene,

17a-caproyloxy-6,21-dimethyl-3,20-dioxo-19-nor-pregna-4,6-dien, 17α-caproyloxy-6,21-dimethyl-3,20-dioxo-19-nor-pregna-4,6-diene,

Det er allerede kjent derivater av 19-nor-progesteron med en methylsubstituent i 6-stillingen, f.eks. "Nomegestrol", som er et sterkt progestativt middel med rene progesteronegen-skaper. Derivatives of 19-nor-progesterone with a methyl substituent in the 6-position are already known, e.g. "Nomegestrol", which is a strong progestative agent with pure progesterone gene creators.

Det er likeledes tidligere kjent derivater av 19-nor-progesteron hvis kjede i 17-stillingen omfatter 3 carbonatomer, spesielt 3,20-dioxo-17a-21-dimethyl-19-nor-pregna-4,9-dien, som er omtalt i fransk patentskrift nr. 2 077 877. Denne type forbindelser oppviser bare moderate progestomimetiske There are also previously known derivatives of 19-nor-progesterone whose chain in the 17-position comprises 3 carbon atoms, in particular 3,20-dioxo-17a-21-dimethyl-19-nor-pregna-4,9-diene, which is discussed in French patent document no. 2 077 877. This type of compound exhibits only moderate progestomimetic

egenskaper sammenlignet med deres lavere homologe. properties compared to their lower homologs.

Det har nu vist seg at forbindelsene med den generelle formel I oppviser meget interessante progestomimetiske egenskaper, spesielt gitt oralt, og at deres sterke binding til progesteronmottakerne innebærer en sterk progestativ virkning . It has now been shown that the compounds of the general formula I exhibit very interesting progestomimetic properties, especially given orally, and that their strong binding to the progesterone receptors implies a strong progestative effect.

De nye 6,21-dimethyl-19-nor-pregna-diener fremstilles ved at et 3-oxo-6-methyl-estra-4,6-dienderivat med formel VI: i form av en E- eller Z-isomer bis-hydroxyleres under anvendelse av et bis-hydroxyleringsmiddel fremstilt fra osmiumtetroxyd og et hydroperoxyd i et inert medium, for dannelse av det tilsvarende 17a-hydroxy-20-ketonderivat med formelen: som, når nødvendig, acyleres under anvendelse av et funksjon-elt derivat av en alifatisk eller aromatisk carboxylsyre med 1-7 carbonatomer i nærvær av et surt medium. The new 6,21-dimethyl-19-nor-pregna-dienes are produced by a 3-oxo-6-methyl-estra-4,6-diene derivative of formula VI: in the form of an E- or Z-isomer bis- is hydroxylated using a bis-hydroxylating agent prepared from osmium tetroxide and a hydroperoxide in an inert medium, to form the corresponding 17α-hydroxy-20-ketone derivative of the formula: which, when necessary, is acylated using a functional derivative of a aliphatic or aromatic carboxylic acid with 1-7 carbon atoms in the presence of an acidic medium.

Bis-hydroxyleringsreaksjonen utføres fortrinnsvis ved bruk av osmiumtetroxyd og et hydroperoxyd av et N-oxyd av tertiært eller sekundært amin, som f.eks. N-oxydet av trimethyl-amin, N-oxydet av triethylamin eller N-oxydet av morfolin. Acyleringen av 17a-hydroxyderivatet utføres fortrinnsvis ved hjelp av et syreklorid eller -anhydrid i nærvær av en sterk mineralsyre, som f.eks. saltsyre eller svovelsyre, eller en Lewis-syre, som f.eks. bortrifluorid. The bis-hydroxylation reaction is preferably carried out using osmium tetroxide and a hydroperoxide of an N-oxide of a tertiary or secondary amine, such as e.g. The N-oxide of trimethylamine, the N-oxide of triethylamine or the N-oxide of morpholine. The acylation of the 17a-hydroxy derivative is preferably carried out with the aid of an acid chloride or anhydride in the presence of a strong mineral acid, such as e.g. hydrochloric or sulfuric acid, or a Lewis acid, such as boron trifluoride.

Alkyleringen av 17a-hydroxyderivatet utføres fortrinnsvis med methoxymethanol eller dihydropyran i nærvær av p-toluensulfonsyre i et inert oppløsningsmiddel. The alkylation of the 17a-hydroxy derivative is preferably carried out with methoxymethanol or dihydropyran in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid in an inert solvent.

Farmakologiske undersøkelser har vist at bindingen av de nye forbindelser til progesteronmottakerne, målt for liv-morens mottakere mot merket progesteron, er 2,5 ganger ster-kere enn progesteronets binding til disse. Pharmacological investigations have shown that the binding of the new compounds to the progesterone receptors, measured for the uterine receptors against labeled progesterone, is 2.5 times stronger than the progesterone's binding to these.

Effektiviteten av de nye forbindelser kan tilskrives den steroidale ringstruktur som bærer to voluminøse substi-tuenter, nemlig en methylgruppe i 6-stillingen og en methylgruppe i 21-stillingen, som, uten å endre forbindelsenes evne til å bindes til mottakersentrene, hindrer eller forsinker den metabolisering av forbindelsen i kroppen som forårsakes av reduserende eller hydrogenerende enzymer. The effectiveness of the new compounds can be attributed to the steroidal ring structure which carries two bulky substituents, namely a methyl group in the 6-position and a methyl group in the 21-position, which, without changing the ability of the compounds to bind to the receptor centers, prevents or delays the metabolism of the compound in the body caused by reducing or hydrogenating enzymes.

Farmasøytiske preparater inneholdende de nye 6,21-dimethyl-19-nor-pregnadiener som aktiv bestanddel er virksomme for behandling av gynekologiske forstyrrelser knyttet til en utilstrekkelighet i luteum, som f.eks. menstruasjonsforstyr-relser, dysmenorrhea, det premenstruelle syndrom og menopause-forstyrrelser. Pharmaceutical preparations containing the new 6,21-dimethyl-19-nor-pregnadienes as an active ingredient are effective for the treatment of gynecological disorders linked to an insufficiency in the luteum, such as e.g. menstrual disorders, dysmenorrhea, the premenstrual syndrome and menopause disorders.

De farmasøytiske preparater er beregnet for administrering parenteralt, oralt, rectalt, gjennom slimhin-nene, percutant eller pernasalt. The pharmaceutical preparations are intended for administration parenterally, orally, rectally, through the mucous membranes, percutaneously or pernasally.

De vanlige doser varierer fra 0,05 til 25 mg aktiv forbindelse pr. enhet, og den daglige dose varierer fra 0,1 til 50 mg aktiv forbindelse ved administrering kontinuerlig eller med intervaller. The usual doses vary from 0.05 to 25 mg of active compound per unit, and the daily dose ranges from 0.1 to 50 mg of active compound when administered continuously or at intervals.

Det 6-formylerte derivat reduseres med et blandet alkalime-tallhydrid, hvoretter det derved dannede 6-hydroxymethylerte derivat dehydratiseres i et surt medium for dannelse av et 3-oxo-6-methylenderivat med formel V: in the form of an E- or Z-isomer, where Rx is as indicated above-The compound with the general formula IIIa is then subjected to a hydrogenation according to Birch's method to form a 3-oxo-estra-4-ene, which is transferred to a compound of the general formula IIIb by reaction with an alkylating agent in an acidic medium, and the compound of the general formula IIIb is reacted with a formylating agent of the Vilsmeier-Hack type to form the corresponding 6-formylated derivative of the general formula IV: i form of an E or Z isomer, where Rx is as indicated above. The 6-formylated derivative is reduced with a mixed alkali metal hydride, after which the 6-hydroxymethylated derivative thus formed is dehydrated in an acidic medium to form a 3-oxo-6-methylene derivative of formula V:

i form av en E- eller Z-isomer. in the form of an E or Z isomer.

Den sistnevnte forbindelse isomeriseres ved at den omsettes med en isomeriseringskatalysator, for dannelse av 3-oxo-6-methyl-estra-4,6-dienderivatet med formel VI: The latter compound is isomerized by reacting it with an isomerization catalyst, to form the 3-oxo-6-methyl-estra-4,6-diene derivative of formula VI:

i form av en E- eller Z-isomer. in the form of an E or Z isomer.

Reaksjonen mellom forbindelsen med formel IIa eller IIb og triarylpropylfosfoniumhalogenidet eller dettes ylid gir hovedsakelig Z-isomeren i 17-stillingen. Imidlertid kan E-isomeren, som fåes bare i begrensede mengder, isoleres under anvendelse av fysikalske metoder, og syntesen kan fortsettes uten noen særlig forskjell, enten med Z-isomeren eller med E-isomeren. The reaction between the compound of formula IIa or IIb and the triarylpropylphosphonium halide or its ylide gives mainly the Z-isomer in the 17-position. However, the E-isomer, which is obtained only in limited quantities, can be isolated using physical methods, and the synthesis can proceed without much difference, either with the Z-isomer or with the E-isomer.

De følgende utførelser og betingelser foretrekkes ved de ovenfor omtalte reaksjoner som fører frem til utgangsmaterialet med formel VI: Omsetningen av 17-oxo-gonanet med formel IIa eller IIb med et triarylpropylfosfoniumhalogenid utføres i et basisk medium i et polart oppløsningsmiddel.

Det polare oppløsningsmiddel er dimethylsulfoxyd eller hexamethylfosfortriamid. The polar solvent is dimethylsulfoxide or hexamethylphosphoric triamide.

Reduksjonen av forbindelsen med formel IIIa i henhold til Birchs metode utføres ved reduksjon i flytende ammoniakk med påfølgende behandling med en sterk syre, som f.eks. saltsyre. The reduction of the compound of formula IIIa according to Birch's method is carried out by reduction in liquid ammonia followed by treatment with a strong acid, such as e.g. hydrochloric acid.

Vilsmeier-Hack-reagenset dannes ved omsetning av fosforoxyklorid med et tertiært amin, som f.eks. dimethylanilin, eller med et disubstituert amid, som f.eks. dimethylformamid. The Vilsmeier-Hack reagent is formed by reacting phosphorus oxychloride with a tertiary amine, such as dimethylaniline, or with a disubstituted amide, such as e.g. dimethylformamide.
