The xanthone derivatives according to the invention have been shown to inhibit release of spasmogens from antigen-antibody reactions such as occur in the rat during the PCA (passive cutaneous anaphylaxis) test described by Ogilvie (J. Immunol., 1967, 12, (2), 113). Thus the compound of Example 24 when given intravenously was about 5-7 times more potent than sodium cromoglycate in inhibiting the PCA reaction in sensitised rats challenged with Nippostrongylis brasiliensis as antigen. These compounds are therefore of value in the treatment of conditions in which extrinsic antigen combination with a reaginic antibody is primarily responsible, for example extrinsic asthma, hay fever, urticaria, eczema or atopic dermatitis.
The invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions which contain a xanthone derivative of general Formula I or a salt or ester thereof together with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, excipient or other formulatory agent. The compositions may also contain supplementary medicinal agents, e.g. a bronchodilator, antihistamine, tranquilliser or anxio lytic. Forms for oral administration include tablets, capsules, syrups or emulsions.
For administration by inhalation the compositions according to the invention may be in the form of a powder or snuff or as an aerosol spray presentation. The last may conveniently be a pressurised pack with a metering valve to deliver a fixed dosage unit or may be an aqueous solution that may be delivered via a nebuliser device.
The dosage at which the active ingredient is administered may vary within a wide range. A suitable oral dosage range is generally from 20-1500 mg. and for inhalation is from 1-20 mg.
The invention also provides a process for the preparation of compounds of Formula I in which acids of general Formula II are cyclised to xanthones of general Formula 111 where R R and Z may be the groups R7 CO H R7 R R and X of Formula I as herein defined or are groups that can be subsequently converted thereto by standard methods of chemistry well known to those skilled in the art, e.g. Z may be a methyl group which can then be oxidised to the carboxylic acid, or may be a nitrile which can be hydrolysed to the acid or can be converted into the -[lH]-tetrazolyl function. The cyclisation may be effected by heating with condensing agents such as sulphuric acid, phosphorus oxychloride, or polyphosphoric acid PPA), for example at temperatures between 60 and 100". Where Z represents a nitrile group this is converted by -PPA under the cyclisation conditions into an amide and by sulphuric acid into a mixture of the amide and the acid. The amide can then be hydrolysed to the carboxylic acid with mineral acids or with alkali or it may be reconverted into the nitrile with dehydrating agents, e.g. by warming with tosyl chloride and pyridine in dimethylformamide.
Conversion of compounds where Z represents a nitrile function into those where Z represents a 5-[1H]-tetrazolyl group can be effected by treatment with hydrazoic acid or its salts. The reaction can conveniently be carried out with sodium or ammonium azide in an inert solvent, e.g. dimethylforrnamide, which may be warmed to about 100 C.
The intermediates of general Formula II may be prepared by an Ullman reaction of the halo acid (IV) and a phenol (V).
COzH -Z Hal HO Hal represents a halogen atom, e.g. chlorine or bromine. The reaction can conveniently be carried out in the presence of an alkali metal carbonate such as potassium carbonate, cuprous iodide, and copper bronze at elevated temperatures, e.g. between and 180 C. Inert highboiling solvents such as xylene or nitrobenzene may also be present.
Compounds of general Formula I wherein R and R are alkoxy may be prepared from an appropriate nitro or chloro xanthone carboxylic acid or nitrile of Formula VI by direct displacement e.g. as shown below:
dimethylformamide NaOMe The nitro or chloro group is in the 6 or 8 position.
Compounds of general Formula I wherein R and/or R represent amino groups may be prepared by reduction of the corresponding nitro compounds with, for example stannous chloride. When X is a protected carboxyl group, for example the group CO CH the compounds of general Formula I in which R represents the group NHSO R may be prepared by reaction of the appropriate amine with a suitable sulphonyl chloride, for example methane sulphonyl chloride. Further alkylation may be effected with a suitable alkylating agent, for example dimethylsulphate. The ester, X=CO CH may be hydrolysed to the acid, X=CO H by heating with sodium hydroxide.
In the case where R, and/or R represent a group 0R an alternative to the direct alkoxide displacement referred to above is reaction of the compound in which R and R are hydroxyl and X is a protected carboxyl group with an alkyl halide and an alkali e.g. sodium hydride with subsequent hydrolysis of the protected group. Where R in the group OR represents an alkyl radical substituted with hydroxyl such radical may be provided by reaction of the corresponding compound in which R, and/or R represent OH with an alkylene oxide in particular ethylene oxide.
The compound in which R and/or R represent OH may be prepared from its corresponding compound in which R and/or R represent OCH by heating with hydrogen bromide in acetic acid or aluminum chloride in xylene.
