Description
United States Patent Delaware No Drawing. Filed Nov. 1, 1963, Ser. No. 320,922
7 Claims. (Cl. 260-4395) The present invention relates to a new group of steroids. More particularly it relates to a new series of l7-amino alkyl ethers of the estrane series. Still more precisely it concerns a novel class of substituted aminoalkyl ethers of 3-alkoxyestra-l,3,5(10)-t1ienes wherein the characteristic aminoalkyl ether group is introduced in position 17 of the steroid nucleus. The invention further provides means of manufacture and use of these novel compositions in pharmaceutical chemistry.
The primary object of our invention therefore may be said to be to disclose the concept and concrete embodiments of 17B-(w-amino alkoxy)-3-alkoxyestra-1,3,5(10)- trienes and simple derivatives thereof which may be illus trated at least in part by the general Formula I:
0 (CH2) nAm Methods for the manufacture of these steroids either in base or acid addition salt form and methods for their use in shifting lipids or cholesterol in mammals are additional specific objects intended.
The symbol R in the above graphic representation of the composition aspect of our invention is intended to designate various lower alkyl groups among which we include methyl and ethyl as the preferred lower alkyl groups but also more broadly equivalently encompass other lower alkyl and carbocyclic lower alkyl groups both of straight and branched chain arrangement having up to about 8 carbon atoms therein. In this regard such groups as propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, pentyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, and the like would be included. The symbol Am is intended to represent various groups which we generally designate as amino and more particularly disclose to include such specific radicals as primary amino, dialkylamino, piperidino, N-lower alkyl substituted piperazino, morpholino, and the like, all of which are considered functional equivalents within the concept of our invention. The symbol n represents either 2 or 3.
When we employ the term dialkylamino here it should be understood that various functions such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl for instance comprise the alkyl moiety thereof giving rise to the corresponding dirnethylamino, diethylamino, dipropylamino and dibutylamino radicals. As previously indicated the term lower alkyl is intended to embrace cyclic alkyl functions as well as straight chain alkyl functions, i. e. cyclopentyl and cyclohexyl radicals.
The invention sought to be patented in its composition aspect therefore may be described as residing in the concept of a novel steroidal compound having a l7-aminoalkoxy sidechain thereon, a 1,3 ,5(l0)-estratriene nucleus and in its preferred product aspects a 3-methoxy sidechain attached thereto as included above in Formula I.
The process of making and manner of use aspects of our novel steroidal compositions will now be generally described so as to enable any person skilled in the art of chemistry to make and use a specific embodiment thereof.
In such process of preparing the novel compounds of our invention the steroidal materials employed as starting materials are not considered part of the invention described and claimed herein save as starting materials and are adquately described in the prior art literature. A preferred mode of synthesis of our new compounds is to treat a known steroid such as estradiol S-methyl ether with a suitable amino alkyl halide under reflux conditions in the presence of a suitable organic react-ion solvent after first treating the starting material with a suspension of sodium hydride. The reaction usually continues from 12 to 24 hours until a product is obtained in the crude state. This product is then purified according to conventional techniques to obtain one of the compounds of our series.
Under normal operating conditions the alkylation goes to completion in about 14-18 hours using xylene as a solvent although other equally well known organic reaction solvents such as benzene, toluene and the like may be equivalently and alternatively employed as is known to those in the art.
Alternatively, our novel compounds may be prepared from novel starting materials disclosed and claimed in our copending application Serial Number 320,836, filed November 1, 1963. In this mode of synthesis starting reagents of the general formula:
as ild wherein R is a lower alkyl group such as methyl, ethyl and so forth up to about 8 carbon atoms and n is 2 or 3, are reacted with a suitable amine such as diethylamine, piperidine, morpholine, and the like in an autoclave if desired at elevated temperature in some instances although the reaction may be conducted at room temperature under reflux conditions for a longer period of time than if the reaction is carried out with increased temperature and pressure.
When the methanesulf-onic acid ester-amine reaction is employed as our method of synthesis, any suitable reaction solvent such as ethanol, methanol, etc. may be used and preferably a reaction solvent is employed which can be easily evaporated although most preferably an excess of the amine may suitably serve as the solvent. In any event the product of the invention may be recovered in good yield as a result of synthesis by either of the principal routes noted herein.
The manner of utilizing the invention sought to be patented will now be briefly described particularly as it relates to the employment in pharmacology of the physical embodiments resulting from the methods of preparation generally indicated above.
There is and has long been a desire in medicine to make available to the profession agents capable of reducing the incidence of atherosclerosis. Since a high cholesterol level in the blood of the animal has long been held to bear a casual relation to such medical condition, a continuing search for compounds of our invention have been found to demonstrate a capability to shift cholesterol from the blood of mammals. For example, the compound d-l7,8 (Z-dimethylaminoethoxy)-3-methoxyestra-l,3,5(l0)-triene has been found to be an effective agent in shifting cholesterol from the blood of laboratory 3 animals (rats) when administered at dosages of 20 mg./ kilo or greater.
Beside having capacity to regulate blood lipids, the compounds of the invention are useful for their general hormonal eifect particularly in the female and would therefore be expected to exhibit utility in those areas where natural estrogens are employed. When so utilized, the effective dosage of the compounds of this invention will depend upon the severity and the individual characteristics of each case wherein they are employed and specific dosage will, of course, be determined by the attending physician or veterinarian. Generally a dosage range of from about 1.25 to about 40.0 mg. per kg. of body weight per day would constitute the overall range.
The novel compounds of our invention in their concrete embodiment form may be administered in a number of ways, i.e. either orally, intravenously or intramuscularly. When contemplated for use in pharmaceutical products they, of course, can be administered singly or in combination with other active or inert ingredients in dosage unit form. If desired, they may be combined with a large number of compatible diluents, carriers, binders, and excipients to form a pharmaceutical preparation. Such typical liquid carriers as Water, mineral oil, or a nontoxic alcohol may be admixed where preparations suitable for injection are to be the form of administration. Carboxymethylcellulose, starches, various sugars and the like may be employed where tablets or powders are to be compounded as a vehicle for oral administration.
The novel compounds as generally and specifically illustrated are basic in nature and thus exhibit a capacity for reaction with certain pharmaceutically acceptable acids to form the non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable acid salts thereof by reactions well known to those versed in the steroid art. Any suitable inorganic acid such as hydrochloric, sulfuric, phosphoric, and the like or alternatively mild organic acids such as acetic, fumaric, maleic and the like may be employed to form such salts.
The invention in its concrete embodiment aspects as well as the general concept of the compounds and processes involved in our invention will be illustrated by the following several examples. It is, of course, to be understood that the general nature of our invention is intended to include those compositions, uses, compounds and processes which would in the scientific opinion of the inventors be considered as substantial equivalents to the embodiments described in the hereinafter typical illustrations.
