The aldose reductase inhibitors according to the present invention comprises, as an essential component, at least one compound represented by the foregoing general formula (II) and are effective as preventive medicines and/or remedies for diabetic complications. It has been known that the term "diabetic complications" means a variety of pathema such as peripheral disorder, retinopathy, nephrosis, cataract and keratopathy. These diseases or disorders are triggered by hyperglycemia resulted from the diabetic disease, that the production of sorbitol in the polyol metabolic pathway is correspondingly abnormally accelerated and that, as a result, a large amount of sorbitol is accumulated within cells. This leads to the onset of these diseases.
The aldose reductase inhibitors of the present invention can suppress the sorbitol-pproduction through strong inhibition of the activity of the aldose reductase which catalyzes the sorbitor-production in the foregoing polyol metabolic pathway and thus show excellent preventive and/or treating effects for these various diabetic complications.
The dose of the compounds of formulae (I) and (II) is appropriately determined depending on the conditions or symptoms of patients to be treated, but in general ranges from 1 to 1,000 mg per day for adult which is administered at one time or over several times. The compounds may be administered through any route for medication such as oral administration, subcutaneous injection, intravenous injection and local administration.
The aldose reductase inhibitors of the present invention may usually comprise in addition to the foregoing compounds as the essential components, pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, vehicles and other additives. the inhibitors of the invention may be used in any dosage form such as tablets, powder, fine particles, granules, capsules, pills, liquid preparations, solutions and suspension for injection and eye drops.
Then methods for preparing the compounds (I) as the essential components, conditions therefor or the like will be detailed below with reference to the following reaction schemes. ##STR7##
The reaction scheme I shows the tetrazole ring formation reaction in which N-aryloylaminoalkyl carboxylate is racted with a chlorinating agent such as phosphorus pentoxide, thionyl chloride or thionyl chloride/N,N dimethylformamide to obtain a corresponding imidoyl chloride compound and then the product is reacted with sodium azide to obtain an intended compound of Formula (I). The reaction for obtaining the imidoyl chloride can be carried out in an organic solvent such as benzene, toluene or methylene chloride. In general, the reaction is preferably performed at a temperature of not more than room temperature. In the subsequent cyclization reaction, it is preferred to use soidum azide in an amount of 2 to 6 times that of the imidoyl chloride as an intermediate. The cyclization reaction is in general performed at room temperature in N,N-dimethylformamide.
The reaction scheme 2 means that the compounds of formula (I) in which R1 is a hydrogen atom may be prepared by hydrolysis of the carboxylic acid ester obtained in the reaction scheme 1. The hydrolysis can be performed in the presence of a base such as sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide or an acid such as hydrochloric acid. sulfuric acid, acetic acid or trifluoroacetic acid.
The compounds of Formula (I) Prepared according to the foregoing method are separated and purified by a chemical operation commonly employed such as extraction, recrystallization and/or column chromatography and the products thus separated and purified are used as essential components for the aldose reductase inhibitors of the present invention.
The present invention will hereinafter described in more detail with reference to the following non-limitative working Examples and the effects practically achieved by the present invention will also be discussed in detail with reference to Test Examples.
EXAMPLE 1 (1-1) preparation of methyl [5-(2-thienyl)tetrazol-1-yl]acetate
To a solution of 1 g (5.02 mM) of N-(2-thenoyl)glycine methyl ester in 15 ml of anhydrous methylene chloride, there was slowly added 1.5 g (7.2 mM) of phosphorus pentoxide at room temperature with stirring, the resulting mixture was stirred for additional 30 minutes and the reaction solumtion was concentrated at 40° C. under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was dissolved in 5 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide. The solution was dropwose added to a suspension of 1.6 g (24.6 mM) of sodium azide in 3 ml of N,N-dimethylformamide at room temperature over 30 minutes with stirring. After the dropwise addition and agitation for additional 30 minutes at room temperature, the mixture was poured into ice-water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phase obtained was washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and then concentrated under reduced pressure.

EXAMPLE 3 (3-1) methyl [5-(2-thienyl)tetrazol-1yl] acetate
To a solution of 500 mg (2.51 mM) of N-(2-thenoyl)glycine methyl ester in 5 ml of anhydrous methylene chloride, there were added, at room temperature, 185 mg (2.53 mM) of anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide and 418 mg (3.51 mM) of thionyl chloride and then the mixture was refluxed for one hour. The reaction solution was concentrated at 40° c. under reduced pressure and the resulting residue was dissolved in 5 m l of anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide.
The resulting solution was dropwise added to a suspension of 410 mg (6.3 mM) of sodium azide in 3 ml of anhydrous N,N dimethylformide at a temperature of the suspension ranging from 5° to 10° C. over 30 minutes with stirring. After the dropwise addition, the reaction mixture was stirred for additional 30 minutes at room temperature, poured into ice-water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phase obtained was washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The resultant residue was recrystallized from ethyl acetate/n hexane to give 395 mg (yield 70.2%) of methyl [5-(2-thienyl)tetrazol-1-yl] acetate.
The results of the instrumental analysis of the product are consistent with those for the product obtained in Example (1-1).
(3-2) ethyl [5-(3-thienyl)tetrazol-1-yl] acetate
To a solution of 1 g (4.69 mM) of N-(3-thenoyl)glycine methyl ester in 10 ml of anhydrous methylene chloride, there were added, at room temperature, 350 mg (4.79 mM) of anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide and 800 mg (6.72 mM) of thionyl chloride and then the mixture was refluxed for one hour. The reaction solution was concentrated at 40° C. under reduced pressure and the resulting residue was dissolved in 10 ml of anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide.
the resulting solution was dropwise added to a suspension of 800 mg (12.3 mM) of sodium azide in 5 ml of anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide as a temperature of the suspension ranging from 5° to 10° C. over 30 minutes and stirring. After the dropwise addition, the reaction mixture was stirred for additional 30 minutes at room temperature, poured into ice-water and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phase obtained was washed with water, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The resultant residue was recrystallized from ethyl acetate/n hexane to give 730 mg (yield 65.3%) of ethyl [5-(3-thienyl)tetrazol-1-yl] acetate.

As has been explained above in detail, the aldose reductast inhibitor of the present invention shows excellent aldose reductase inhibitory effect and has low toxicity. Therefore, it can be used as a medicine for preventing and/or treating mammalian inclusive of man suffering from diabetic complications such as neural disorders, nephrosis, cataract and retinopathy with safety.
The effects and toxicity of the aldose reductase inhibitor according to the present invention will be detailed below with reference to the following Test Examples.
TEST EXAMPLE 1: TEST FOR EXAMINING ALDOSE REDUCTASE INHIBITORY EFFECT (i) Methodology
Six-weeks-old male SD rates were anesthetized with ether and killed. Then their crystalline lenses were immediately removed and stored at -80° C. The lenses were homogenized in 3 volume of 135 mM sodium potassium phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) and centrifuged at 30,000 rpm for 30 minutes. the resulting supernatant was dialyzed overnight against 0.05 M sodium chloride solution to obtain an aldose reductase solution. All operations were conducted at 4° C. and the enzyme solution was stored at -80° C.
The activity of aldose reductase was determined according to a partially modified method of J.H. Kinoshita et al (J. Bio. Chem., 1965, 240, p. 877). More specifically, 0.1 ml of DL glyceraldehyde (final concentration: 10 mM) was added to 0.9 ml of 100 mM sodium potassium phosphate buffer (pH 6.2) which contained lithium sulfate (final concentration: 400 mM), reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (final concentration: 0.15 mM), the enzyme solution, and the compound to be evaluated (final concentration: 10-6 M, 10-7 M or 1031 8 M), and then the reaction was conducted at 30° C. for 5 minutes. During the reaction, the change in the absorbance at 340 nm with time was monitored. The maximum reducing rate of the absorbance (U) during the reaction was determined. By subtracting, from this value, the maximum reducing rate (Uo) at 340 nm of the reaction solution before the addition of the substrate (DL-glyceraldehyde), the reaction rate (V=U-Uo) was calculated as a true reaction rate in the presence of the compound to be tested.
The same procedure was repeated except for the absence of the compound to be tested. A true reaction rate (Vo) in case the enzyme was not inhibited was calculated (Vo =U'-Uo '). The aldose reductase inhibitory activity of the test compounds was determined according to the following formula:
Rate of Inhibition (%)=(V.sub.o -V)/V.sub.o ×100
For comparison, the same tests were conducted using a known aldose reductase inhibitor: ONO-2235 [(E)-3-carboxymethyl-5- [(2E)-methyl-3-phenylpropenylidene] rhodan].
(ii) Results
The results thus obtained are summarized in the following Table II. As seen from Table II, the compounds of the present invention tested show aldose reductase inhibitory effect identical to or superior to those attained by the known inhibitor ONO-2235.

TEST EXAMPLE 2: TEST ON THE EFFECT OF INHIBITING THE ACCUMULATION OF SORBITOL IN SCIATIC NERVE (i) Methodology
Groups of 6 to 8-weeks-old Sprague-Dawley male rats (4 aminals per group) were fasted for 18 hours and streptozotocin was injected through the tail vein in a dose of 60 mg/kg to thus obtain diabetic rats. Immediately after the administration of the streptozotocin, each compound to be tested was orally administered to these rats in the form of a suspension at a dose of 10 mg/kg, 30 mg/kg and 50 mg/kg (each was suspended in a 0.5% sodium carboxymethyl cellulose solution) twice a day (9 o'clock in the morning and 5 o'clock in the afternoon) for 5 days. During the test, the rats took diet and drank water freely. 4 Hours after the final administration of the drug in the 5th day's morning (9 o'clock in the morning), the rats were sacrificed and then the sciatic nerve thereof was removed to determine the amount of sorbitol accumulated therein.
The results are expressed in the percentage obtained while the value obtained on the control to which any drug was not administered is defined to be 100.
