Definitions
- ABSTRACT Imidazoies substituted at the 2 and 4(5) positions having an optional substituent in the 1 position are provided. Methods of preparing the novel substituted imidazoles are described.
- the substituted imidazoles are useful as anti-gout and anti-hyperuricemic agents.
- Compositions useful in the treatment of gout and hyperuricemia containing a substituted imidazole as the active ingredient are provided.
- Gout is a condition affecting humans and lower animals, particularly birds and reptiles, which is characterized by perversion of the purine metabolism resulting in an excess of uric acid in the blood,by attacks of acute arthritis, and by formation of chalky deposits in the cartilages of the joints. These deposits are made up chiefly of urates, or uric acid.
- Hyperuricemia is a condition characterized by an excess of uric acid in the blood.
- Uric acid serves no biochemical function in the body and is merely an end product of purine metabolism. It is well known in the art that the purine bases adenine and guanine, which play key roles in a wide variety of chemical processes, both give rise to uric acid in the body. Adenylic acid and guanylic acid are converted to the free purine bases by destructive metabolic enzymes. A portion'of the free purine bases is converted to purine ribonucleotides and the remainder is degraded to the free bases xanthine and hypoxanthine. A single enzyme, xanthine oxidase, converts both xanthine and hypoxanthine to uric acid for excretion.
- Allopurinol acts as a specific inhibitor of the enzyme xanthine oxidase, which is responsible for the conversion of both hypoxanthine and xanthine to uric acid.
- xanthine oxidase As a direct result of the administration of this compound to patients afflicted with gout, part of the uric acid which would normally end up in the urine is replaced instead by the oxypurines, hypoxanthine and xanthine, thus greatly reducing the content of uric acid in serum and urine.
- Azathioprine has also been employed in patients afflicted by gout to inhibit the excessive purine synthesis, which tends to produce abnormal amounts of uric acid.
- substituted imidazoles which are the subject of this invention have been found to be effective anti-gout and anti-hyperuricemic agents in that they will inhibit the action of the enzyme xanthine oxidase and thus reduce the content of uric acid in serum and urine.
- R is hydrogen or loweralkyl wherein the alkyl group contains from one to five carbons, such as methyl, ethyl, butyl and thelike, R is naphthyl or heteroaryl such as quinolyl or cinnolyl, or a 5 or 6 membered heteroaryl ring system containing 1-3 hetero atoms wherein the hetero atom is selected from the group oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur, such as a pyrazinyl, thienyl, thiazolyl, or pyridiyl ring,
- alkoxy group contains from one to five carbons, such as methoxy, ethoxy, butoxy and the like, loweralkanoylamino wherein the alkyl group contains from two to five carbons such as butyl- 3 acetylamino, propionylamino, butyrylamino, and the like, nitro, amino, lowermonoalkylamino and lowerdialkylamino wherein the alkyl group contains from one to five carbons, such as methylamino, diethylamino, dibutylamino, and
- a fused loweralkylene bridge containing from three to six carbons such as a propylene, butylene, or pentylene bridge, and
- alkoxycarbonyl wherein the alkoxy group contains one to five carbons, such as methoxycarbonyl, ethoxycarbonyl, or butoxycarbonyl,
- alkanoyl group contains from one to five carbons, such as acetyl, propionyl, butyryl, and the like, or
- R is carboxy, R is not pnitrophenyl or m-nitrophenyl.
- the phenyl ring may contain from 1-3 substituents.
- the substituent on the phenyl ring is a loweralkylene bridge
- the bridge is joined to the phenyl ring on adjacent carbons such as, for example, a 3,4-propylene bridge.
- R is a naphthyl group
- the naphthyl group is joined to the imidazole ring at the l or 2 position of the naphthyl group.
- the substituent on the phenyl ring is a methylenedioxy group
- the oxygen atoms are joined to the phenyl ring on adjacent carbons such as, for exam ple, a 3,4-methylenedioxy substituent.
- non-toxic pharmaceuticallly acceptable quaternary salts such as the methiodides and ethiodides where the heterocyclic group in the 2-position contains a nitrogen atom, alkali metal and alkaline earth metal salts, such as the sodium, potassium, and calcium salts, and those mineral acid salts such as the hydrochloride salts, wherein the substituent in the 2-position is a heterocyclic ring containing at least one nitrogen atom, such as a pyridine ring.
- disalts which are formed in those cases where R is carboxy.
- R in Formula I is hydrogen, R 'is pyridyl or halophenyl, and R is carboxy, loweralkoxycarbonyl, carbamoyl, cyano, loweralk'anoyl or benzoyl represent a preferred sub-class of compounds falling within the scope of the present invention.
- the l-unsubstituted imidazoles discussed herein are compounds in which the R substituent is at either the 4or 5 position on the imidazole ring.
- the hydrogen atom on a nitrogen in the imidazole ring is in a state of tautomeric equilibrium, with the result that the 4 and 5 positions are equivalent.
- Typical of the compounds falling within the definition of Formula I are: ethyl 2-( p-chlorophenyl)imidazole-4( 5 )-carboxylate methyl 2-( 4-pyridyl )imidazole-4( 5 )-carboxylate 4( 5 )-acetyl-2-( p-bromophenyl )-imidazole 2-( p-bromophenyl )imidazole-4( 5 )-carboxylic acid methyl 2-(p-nitrophenyl)imidazole-4( 5 )-carboxylate 2-( p-bromophenyl)imidazole-4-( 5 )-carboxamide 2-( 4-pyridyl )imidazole-4( 5 )-carboxamide 2-( p-chlorophenyl)imidazole-4( 5 )-carboxylic acid methyl 2-(6-quinolyl)imidazole-4(5 )-carboxylate 2-
- the compounds of the present invention having the structural formula N R5 I wherein R, is hydrogen or loweralkyl, R is naphthyl, substituted phenyl, heteroaryl, substituted heteroaryl, and R is carboxy, loweralkoxycarbonyl, carbamoyl, cyano, or loweralkanoyl, can be prepared by a series of reactions from a substituted imidazole compound such as a 4(5)-trifluoromethylimidazole compound.
- those compounds where the substituent at the 4(5)-position is carboxy can be prepared by treating a substituted 4(5 )-trifluoromethylimidazole with excess aqueous alkali, such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide.
