The invention relates especially to the compounds of the formula I specifically mentioned in the Examples.
The compounds of the formula I can be manufactured by methods known per se, for example as follows: an azide of the formula Ph - alk - N3 (II) is reacted with a compound of the formula in which R^ represents cyano or a carbamoyl group that is unsubstituted or substituted by acyl, lower alkyl or lower alkylene or by aza-, oxa- or thia-lower alkylene, 206696 Y1 represents an amino group disubstituted as indicated or, if represents a carbamoyl group that is unsubstituted or substituted by acyl, lower alkyl or lower alkylene or by aza-, oxa- or thia-lower alkylene, represents hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or carbamoyl that is unsubstituted or substituted as indicated, and Y2 and Y^ together represent an additional bond, or in which represents cyano or a carbamoyl group that is unsubstituted or substituted by acyl, lower alkyl or lower alkylene or by aza-, oxa- or thia-lower alkylene, Y^ and Y2 together represent imino and Y^ is hydrogen, or with a tautomer and/or salt thereof, if necessary a resulting isomeric mixture is separated into its components and the isomer of the formula I is isolated and, if desired, the compound obtainable according to the process is converted into a different compound of the formula I.
Tautomers of compounds of the formula III are, for example, cyanoacetyl tautomers of the formula N=C-CH2-R2' (Ilia) of ketimine compounds of the formula III in which Yj and Y2 represent imino and Y-j represents hydrogen.
Salts of compounds of the formula III are, for example, metal salts, such as alkali metal salts, of compounds of the formula III in which Yj and Y2 together represent imino and Y^ represents hydrogen, or the tautomers thereof of the formula Ilia.
The reaction is carried out in customary manner, advantageously in an inert solvent, if necessary in the presence of a condensation agent and/or at elevated temperature. Inert solvents are, for example, aromatic or araliphatic hydrocarbons, such as benzene or toluene, or ethers, such as tertiary butoxymethane, tetrahydrofuran or dioxane, and, for the reaction with 2 066 96 - 11 " compounds of the formula Ilia, also alcohols, such as lower alkanols, for example methanol, ethanol or butanol. Condensation agents are, for example for the reaction with compounds of the formula III in which Yj and together represent imino and Y^ represents hydrogen, or the tautomers thereof of the formula Ilia, salt-forming condensation agents, such as metal alcoholates, for example sodium methoxide, sodium ethoxide, or other alkali metal lower alkoxides, metal amides, such as sodium amide, lithium diisopropyl amide and the like, or organometal compounds, such as lower alkylmagnesium halides or lower alkyllithium compounds, for example methyl- or butyl-magnesium bromide or butyllithium. Instead of carrying out the process in the presence of one of the mentioned condensation agents, the component of the formula III or Ilia may alternatively be.used in the form of a salt.
Preferred embodiments of this process are, for example, the reaction of an azide of the formula II with a compound of the formula III in which Yj represents hydrogen or lower alkyl, and Y2 and Y-j represent an additional bond, in benzene or dioxan at approximately from 60-120°C, preferably at boiling temperature, and the reaction with compounds of the formula Ilia in the presence of sodium methoxide or sodium ethoxide and methanol or ethanol, respectively, as the solvent, at approximately from 40 to 100°C, preferably at the boiling temperature.
The starting materials of the formula III and some of those of the formula II are known. Novel starting materials of the formula II can be obtained analogously to the method of formation of the known starting materials, for example by reacting a compound of the formula Ph-alk-X (IV), in which X represents reactive esterified hydroxy, such as halogen, for example 206696 chlorine, bromine or iodine, or sulphonyloxy, such as lower alkanesulphonyloxy, optionally substituted benzenesulphonyloxy, such as methane-, ethane-, benzene-, ja-toluene- or £-bromobenzene-sulphonyloxy, or fluorosulphonyloxy, with an alkali metal azide, for example with sodium azide, for example in dimethylsulphoxide or dimethylformamide, or by reacting an alcohol of the formula Ph-alk-X (IV? X = hydroxy) in the presence of triphenylphosphine and an azodicarboxylic acid ester, for example azodicarboxylic acid diethyl ester, with hydrazoic acid, for example in toluene.
The novel compounds may also be manufactured as follows: a compound of the formula Ph - alk - Z (IV) in which Z represents reactive esterified hydroxy is reacted with a 1H-1,2,3-triazole derivative of the formula ,N=N H-N (V) R. or a salt thereof, if necessary a resulting isomeric mixture is separated into its components and the isomer of the formula I is isolated and, if desired, the compound obtainable according to the process is converted into a different compound of the formula I.
Reactive esterified hydroxy Z is, for example, halogen, for example chlorine, bromine or iodine, or -V.
■L 2 066 sulphonyloxy, such as lower alkanesulphonyloxy, optionally substituted benzenesulphonyloxy, such as methane-, ethane-, benzene-, ^-toluene- or £-bromobenzene-sulphonyloxy, or fluorosulphonyloxy.
Salts of compounds of the formula V are, for example, alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salts, such as sodium, potassium or calcium salts.
The reaction is carried out in customary manner, for example in the presence of a basic condensation agent or, advantageously, using the component of the formula V in the form of a salt, if necessary while heating, preferably in a solvent or diluent. Basic condensation agents are, for example, basic condensation agents that form salts with the component of the formula V, such as alkali metal alcoholates, for example sodium methoxide or sodium ethoxide, alkali metal or alkaline earth metal amides, for example sodium amide or lithium diisopropyl amide. As mentioned, the conversion of the component of the formula V into one of its salts is preferably carried out in advance, for example by reaction with one of the above-mentioned bases. Solvents for carrying out the reaction in the presence of an alcoholate are preferably the corresponding alcohols and, for carrying out the reaction in the presence of amides, are, for. example, aprotic organic solvents, such as phosphoric acid lower alkylamides or di-lower alkylsulphoxides, for example hexamethylphosphoric acid triamide or dimethylsulphoxide respectively.
The process is suitable especially for the manufacture of compounds in which an amino group R^ or the amino group as a constituent of a carbamoyl group R2 is at least N-mono-substituted, and 2 066 preferably N,N-di-substituted, that is to say represents acylamino, lower alkylamino or preferably di-lower alkylamino, lower alkyleneamino or (N'-lower alkyl) aza-, oxa- or thia-lower alkyleneamino.
The starting materials of the formulae IV and V that are not already known can be manufactured in customary manner. Thus, compounds of the formula IV are obtained, for example, by reactively esterifying a corresponding alcohol of the formula IV (Z = hydroxy), for example by means of thionyl chloride, phosphorus tribromide or a sulphonyl chloride. Compounds of the formula V can be manufactured as follows: hydrazoic acid or trimethylsilylazide is reacted with a compound of the formula in which represents cyano or a carbamoyl group that is unsubstituted or substituted by acyl, lower alkyl or lower alkylene or by aza-, oxa- or thia-lower alkylene, represents an amino group disubstituted as indicated, or if R^ represents a carbamoyl group that is unsubstituted or substituted by acyl, lower alkyl or lower alkylene or by aza-, oxa- or thia-lower alkylene, represents hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy or carbamoyl that is unsubstituted or substituted as indicated, and Y2 and Y^ together represent an additional bond, or in which R^ represents cyano or a carbamoyl group that is unsubstituted or substituted by acyl, lower alkyl or lower alkylene or by aza-, oxa-or thia-lower alkylene, Y^ and together represent imino and Y^ represents hydrogen, or with a tautomer and/or salt thereof and, if desired, an amino group R^ and/or a carbamoyl group R2 is acylated, lower-alkylated or substituted by 2 066 9 6 lower alkylene or aza-, oxa- or thia-lower alkylene in a 1-trimethylsilyl triazole derivative so obtained and the trimethylsilyl group is subsequently removed by mild hydrolysis.
The novel compounds can also be manufactured as follows: in a compound of the formula N=N / Ph-alk-N (VI) *.=, Y.

Radicals YA and Yg according to the above definition are, for example, free carboxy groups or carboxy groups present in salt or anhydride form, 2 066 9 6 amidino groups that are optionally N-lower alkylated or N,N-disubstituted by lower alkylene or by aza-, oxa- or thia-lower alkylene, or esterified carboxy groups; radicals Y0 are also cyano groups.
Esterified carboxy groups are, for example, carboxy groups esterified by a lower alkanol or a lower alkylmercaptan, that is to say, lower alkoxy- or lower alkylthio-carbonyl groups, but may also be esterified by any other alcohol or mercaptan, for example by an optionally substituted phenol or thiophenol.
Carboxy groups present in salt form are, for example, carboxy groups present in an ammonium salt form derived from ammonia or a mono- or di-lower alkylamine, or also carboxy groups present in metal salt form, for example in alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salt form.
Carboxy groups present in anhydride form are, for example, carboxy groups present in the form of a halide, such as chlorocarbonyl, but may also be anhydridised by a reactive carboxylic acid, and represent for example, alkoxycarbonyloxycarbonyl or tr ifluoroacetoxycarbonyl.
Amidino groups optionally lower alkylated or N,N-di-substituted by lower alkylene or by aza-, oxa- or thia-lower alkylene are, for example, amidino groups that are unsubstituted or N-mono-, N,N-di- or N,N'-di-lower alkylated or N,N-disubstituted by lower alkylene or by aza-, oxa- or thia-lower alkylene.
The conversion of the above-mentioned groups Y^ into cyano or carbamoyl optionally substituted as indicated or of Y5 into carbamoyl optionally substituted as indicated is carried out in customary manner, using as the starting materials carboxy groups that are free, esterified or in anhydride form and amidino groups that are optionally N-lower alkylated or 2 066 9 6 N,N-disubstituted by lower alkylene or by aza-, oxa- or thia-lower alkylene, by means of solvolysis, that is to say hydrolysis, or ammonolysis or aminolysis (reaction with ammonia or with a mono- or di-lower alkylamine, lower alkyleneamine or aza-, oxa- or thia-lower alkyleneamine).
By means of hydrolysis, for example amidino groups Y4 and/or Y5 that are optionally lower alkylated or N,N-disubstituted by lower alkylene or by aza-, oxa- or thia-lower alkylene can be converted into optionally correspondingly substituted carbamoyl, and cyano Y^ can be converted into carbamoyl. The hydrolysis is carried out, for example, in the presence of an acidic hydrolysing agent, such as a mineral, sulphonic'or carboxylic acid, for example sulphuric acid, phosphoric acid, hydrochloric acid or a different hydrohalic acid, £-toluenesulphonic acid or a different organic sulphonic acid, or a lower alkanoic acid, such as acetic acid, preferably in catalytic amounts.
By means of ammonolysis or aminolysis, for example carboxy groups that are free, present in salt form or esterified can be converted into carbamoyl that is unsubstituted or substituted as indicated. The operation is carried out, if necessary, in the presence of a condensation agent, advantageously in an inert solvent. Using carboxy in anhydride form as the starting material, condensation agents are, for example, basic condensation agents, such as alkali metal hydroxides or carbonates, or organic nitrogen bases, such as amines, in excess, corresponding to the amino group to be introduced, or tertiary organic nitrogen bases, such as tri-lower alkylamines or tertiary heteroaromatic nitrogen bases, such as triethylamine or pyridine, and, using esterified carboxy as the starting material, acidic condensation 2©66 96 agents, such as mineral acids, such as hydrohalic acids and the like. Free carboxy groups can be converted into optionally lower alkylated carbamoyl by dehydrating the ammonium salts formed as intermediates, for example by heating or by the action of dehydrating agents, such as acid anhydrides, for example phosphorus pentoxide, acetyl chloride and the like, or carbodiimides, for example N,N1-dicyclohexyl carbod iimide.
The starting materials of the formula VI that are not already known can be manufactured in customary manner, for example as follows: an azide of the formula Ph - alk - N3 (II) is reacted with a compound of the formula Y, - C = C - Y„ (VII) 1 | , 4 Y Y 2 3 in which Y^ represents a group Y^ and Y2 and Y^ represent an additional bond, or Yi represents hydrogen or lower alkyl, Y2 represents hydroxy and Y^ represents hydrogen, or. Y^ and Y2 together represent imino and Y3 represents hydrogen, or with a tautomer and/or salt thereof, for example as described for the reaction with the corresponding compounds of the formula III.
Starting materials of the formula VI in which Y^ represents lower alkoxy and Y^ represents a YA group may also be manufactured as follows: an azide of the formula II is reacted with an acid of the formula H00C-CH2-Ya (XI), or an ester, such as a lower alkyl ester, thereof, for example a malonic acid di-lower alkyl ester, and/or a salt thereof, preferably in 2 06696 - 19 the presence of an alkali metal alkoxide and, in the 5-hydroxy-1-Ph-alk-4-YA~1H-1,2,3-triazole formed, the hydroxy group is lower alkylated, preferably by reaction with a reactive lower alkyl ester, such as dimethyl sulphate, in the presence of sodium hydroxide.
The novel compounds may also be manufactured by removing H-Yg from a compound of the formula N=N Ph-alk-N (IX) R1 —— I I Y6H in which Yg represents a removable radical, and, if necessary, separating a resulting isomeric mixture into its components and isolating the isomer of the formula I and, if desired, converting the compound obtainable according to the process into a different compound of the formula I.
Removable radicals Yg are, for example, hydroxy, lower alkoxy or optionally substituted amino groups, lower alkoxy preferably being identical to lower alkoxy Rj and optionally substituted amino preferably being identical to free or substituted amino R^.
The removal of H-Yg generally takes place spontaneously; in individual cases the supply of thermal energy or the presence of an acidic or basic agent, such as a mineral acid, for example sulphuric or hydrochloric acid, or a carboxylic or sulphonic acid, for example acetic or £-toluenesulphonic acid, or an alkali metal hydroxide or alcoholate, for example 20659 6 sodium methoxide, can be advantageous.
The starting materials of the formula IX are preferably manufactured _in_ situ and reacted further without being isolated, for example by reacting a compound of the formula Ph - alk - N3 (II) with a compound of the formula Y7 Y8 YI - C - C - R2' {x)f Y Y 2 3 in which R2' represents cyano or a carbamoyl group that is unsubstituted or substituted by lower alkyl or lower alkylene or by aza-, oxa- or thia-lower alkylene, Yi and Y2 represent lower alkoxy or optionally substituted amino R^, Y3 represents hydrogen and Y-j and Yg represent an additional bond, or Y|, Y2 and Y-y represent lower alkoxy and Y-j and Yg represent hydrogen, or Y^ and Y2 together represent oxo, Y-j represents hydrogen or lower alkyl and Y^ and Yg represent hydrogen, or with a tautomer and/or salt thereof, for example with a compound of the formula Y^'-C(=0)-CH2-R21 (Xa; Y^' = hydrogen or lower alkyl), Y^-C(Y2)=CH-R2' (Xb; Y^ and - lower alkoxy or, independently of one another, amino that is unsubstituted or substituted as indicated for Rj), or Y1-C(Y2)(Y7)-CH2-R2' (Xc; Yj, Y2 and Y? = lower alkoxy). % 2 066 96 Compounds of the formula I in which Rj represents lower alkoxy may also be manufactured as follows: in a compound of the formula ^/N=N Ph-alk-N R (XII)' r2 HO the hydroxy group is converted into lower alkoxy and, if necessary, a resulting isomeric mixture is separated into its components and the isomer of the formula I is isolated and, if desired, the compound obtainable according to the process is converted into a different compound of the formula I.
The conversion of hydroxy into lower alkoxy is effected, for example, by reaction with a reactive lower alkyl ester, such as a hydrohalic, such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic or hydriodic, acid ester, a sulphuric acid ester, that is to say a di-lower alkyl sulphate, or a sulphonic acid ester, such as a lower alkane- or optionally substituted benzene-sulphonic acid ester, for example methane-, benzene-, o-toluene-or d-bromobenzene-sulphonic acid ester of a lower alkanol, advantageously in the presence of a basic agent, such as an alkali metal hydroxide, carbonate or alcoholate, for example sodium or potassium hydroxide, potassium carbonate or sodium methoxide, or a tertiary organic nitrogen base, such as a tri-lower alkylamine, for example triethylamine, or pyridine.
The starting materials of the formula XII can be obtained, for example, by reacting an azide of the formula 2 06696 Ph - alk - N3 (II) with an acid of the formula HOOC-CH2~R2 (XI) or an ester, for example a lower alkyl ester, thereof, for example as indicated for the reaction with compounds of the formula Ilia. .
Compounds obtainable according to the process can be converted into different compounds of the formula I by converting one or more variables of the general formula I into different variables.
Thus cyano R2 can be hydrolysed to form carbamoyl, for example under basic conditions, such as in the presence of an alkali metal hydroxide, but cyano can also be converted into N-lower alkyl- or N,N-di-lower alkyl-carbamoyl, for example by first converting the nitrile of the formula I, for example by treatment with a lower alkanol, phenol or any other alcohol, into an imino ether, reacting the latter with a mono- or di-lower alkylamine, and hydrolysing the amidine formed, preferably under mildly acidic conditions.
Conversely, carbamoyl R2 can be dehydrated to form cyano, for example by treatment with a dehydrating agent, for example an acid anhydride, such as phosphorus pentoxide or phosphorus oxychloride, a cyclic silazane, or dichloro-carbene or trichloromethane in the presence of an approximately 40% sodium hydroxide solution and a phase transfer catalyst, for example benzyltrimethylammonium chloride.
In addition, a primary amino R^ can be converted into acylamino, mono- or di-lower alkylamino or lower alkyleneamino, aza-, oxa- or thia-lower alkyleneamino. Also mono-lower alkylamino R^ can be converted into di- 2 066 lower alkylamino. The acylation is effected, for example, by means of a corresponding acid anhydride or chloride, such as acetanhydride, the mixed anhydride of formic and acetic acid, a chloro- or bromoformic acid lower alkylester, methanesulphonylchloride or dimethyl-carbamoylchloride, if necessary, in the presence of a base, such as triethylamine or pyridine, or with an inorganic acid, e.g. sulphuric acid. Alkyl(en)ating agents are, for example, reactive esters of a lower alkanol, lower alkanediol or aza-, oxa- or thia-lower alkanediol, such as a lower alkyl(enedi)halide, for example, bromide or iodide, lower alkyl(ene di)-sulphonate, for example methanesulphonate or £-toluenesulphonate, or a di-lower alkyl sulphate, for example dimethyl sulphate, preferably under basic conditions, such as in the presence of sodium hydroxide solution or potassium hydroxide solution and advantageously a phase transfer catalyst, such as tetrabutylammonium bromide or benzyltrimethylammonium chloride. In an entirely analogous manner, also carbamoyl 1*2 and/or can be converted into N-acylcarbamoyl, N-mono-or N,N-di-lower alkylcarbamoyl or N,N-lower alkylenecarbamoyl or N,N-(aza-, oxa- or thia)-lower alkylenecarbamoyl and N-mono-lower alkylcarbamoyl can be converted into N,N-di-lower alkylcarbamoyl, but stronger basic condensation agents, such as alkali metal amides or alcoholates, for example sodium amide or sodium methoxide, may be necessary.
Depending on the choice of starting materials and procedures, the novel compound can be in the form of one of the possible isomers, for example with respect to the position of and R2r or in the form of mixtures thereof, and, depending on the number of asymmetrical carbon atoms, also in the form of optical isomers, such as antipodes, or mixtures thereof, such 2 066 96 as racemates, diastereoisomeric mixtures or racemic mix tures.
Resulting mixtures of position isomers as well as diastereoisomeric mixtures and racemic mixtures can be separated on the basis of the physical and chemical differences between their constituents in known manner into the pure position isomers, diastereoisomers and racemates, respectively, for example by chromatography and/or fractional crystallisation. Resulting racemates can also be separated by known methods into the optical antipodes, for example by recrystallisation from an optically active solvent, with the aid of microorganisms or by reaction of an acidic precursor, for example of the formula VI (Y^ and/or = carboxy), with an optically active alcohol that forms esters with the racemic acid and separation of the esters obtained in this manner, for example on the basis of their different solubilities, into the diastereoisomers from which the antipodes can be freed by the action of suitable agents. Advantageously, the more active of the two antipodes is isolated.
Racemates of salt-forming compounds of the formula I can also be split by reaction with an optically active auxiliary compound into diastereoisomeric mixtures, for example with an optically active acid into mixtures of diastereoisomeric acid addition salts, and separation of the latter into the diastereoisomers from which the enantiomers can be freed in the customary manner in each case. Optically active acids customary for this purpose are, for example, D- or L-tartaric acid, di-o-toluyltartaric acid, malic acid, mandelic acid, camphorsulphonic acids or quinic acid.
In addition, resulting free salt-forming compounds can be converted in a manner known per se into acid addition salts, for example by reacting a solution of 2 066 the free compound in a suitable solvent or solvent mixture with one of the above-mentioned acids or with a solution thereof, or with a suitable anion exchanger.
Resulting acid addition salts can be converted in a manner known per se into the free compounds, for example by treatment with a base, such as an alkali metal hydroxide, a metal carbonate or bicarbonate, or ammonia, or with a suitable anion exchanger.
Resulting acid addition salts can be converted in a manner known per se into different acid addition salts, for example by treating a salt of an organic acid with a suitable metal salt, such as a sodium, barium or silver salt, of an acid in a suitable solvent in which the resulting organic salt is insoluble and thus separates out from the reaction mixture.
The compounds, including their salts, can also be obtained in the form of the hydrates or include the solvent used for crystallisation.
As a result of the close relationship between the novel compounds in the free form and in the form of their salts, hereinbefore and hereinafter the free compounds or their salts are to be understood, where appropriate and expedient, to include optionally also the corresponding salts or free compounds.
The invention also relates to those embodiments of the process according to which a compound obtainable as an intermediate at any stage of the process is used as the starting material and the remaining steps are carried out, or a starting material is used in the form of a salt or, especially, is formed under the reaction conditions.
Thus all intermediates of the formula IX can be formed in situ in accordance with the process variant of the reaction of compounds of the formulae II and X, 2 066 96 and reacted further without being isolated.
The invention also relates to novel starting materials of the formulae II, V, VI, IX and XII which have been developed especially for the- manufacture of the compounds according to the invention, especially the range of starting materials leading to the compounds of the formula I that are characterised as being preferred at the beginning, to the processes for their manufacture and to their use as intermediates.
The novel compounds of the formula I can be used, for example, in the form of pharmaceutical preparations that contain a therapeutically effective amount of the active ingredient, optionally together with inorganic or organic, solid or liquid, pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, and are suitable for enteral, for example oral, or parenteral administration. Thus tablets or gelatine capsules are used which contain the active ingredient together with diluents, for example lactose, dextrose, saccharose, mannitol, sorbitol, cellulose and/or glycine, and/or glidants, for example silica, talc, stearic acid or salts thereof, such as magnesium stearate or calcium stearate, and/or polyethylene glycol. Tablets may also contain binders, for example magnesium aluminium silicate, starches, such as corn, wheat, rice or arrowroot starch, gelatine, tragacanth, methylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose and/or polyvinylpyrrolidone, and, if desired, disintegrators, for example starches, agar, alginic acid or a salt thereof, such as sodium alginate, and/or effervescent mixtures, or adsorption agents, dyes, flavourings and sweeteners. In addition, the novel compounds of the formula I can be used in the form of preparations that can be administered parenterally, or in the form of infusion solutions.
Such solutions are preferably isotonic aqueous 206696 solutions or suspensions, it being possible for these to be manufactured before use, for example in the case of lyophilised preparations which contain the active ingredient alone or together with a carrier, for example mannitol. The pharmaceutical preparations may be sterilised and/or contain adjuncts, for example preservatives, stabilisers, wetting agents and/or emulsifiers, solubilisers, salts for regulating the osmotic pressure and/or buffers. The present pharmaceutical preparations, which, if desired, may contain further pharmacologically active substances, are manufactured in a manner known per se, for example by means of conventional mixing, granulating, confectioning, dissolving or lyophilising processes, and contain, from 0.1 % to 100 %, especially from 1 % to 50 %, and in the case of lyophilisates up to 100 %, of the active ingredient.
The invention also relates to the use of the compounds of the formula I, preferably in the form of pharmaceutical preparations. The dosage can depend on various factors, such as the method of administration, and the species, age and/or condition of the individual. The doses to be administered daily in the case of oral administration are between 5 and 50 mg/kg and for warm blooded animals weighing approximately 70 kg preferably between 0.5 g and approximately 5.0 g.
