Description

HETEROCYCLIC-SUBSTITUTED ALKANAMIDES USEFUL AS RENIN INHIBITORS
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to novel alkanamides, process for their preparation and the use of the compounds as medicines, especially as renin inhibitors.
Background of the Invention
Alkanamides for use as medicines are disclosed for example in EP 0678503. In relation especially to the renin inhibition, however, there is still a need for active ingredients of high potency. The priority in this is to improve the pharmacokinetic properties. These properties, which aim at better bioavailability, are for example absorption, metabolic stability, solubility or lipophilicity.

Salts of compounds with salt-forming groups are in particular acid addition salts, salts with bases or, if a plurality of salt-forming groups is present, optionally also mixed salts or inner salts.
Salts are primarily the pharmaceutically acceptable or non-toxic salts of compounds of the formula (I). Such salts are formed for example by compounds of the formula (I) having an acidic group, e.g. a carboxy or sulpho group, and are for example their salts with suitable bases, such as non-toxic metal salts derived from metals of group Ia, Ib, Na and Nb of the Periodic Table of the Elements, e.g. alkali metal, in particular lithium, sodium or potassium, salts, alkaline earth metal salts, for example magnesium or calcium salts, furthermore zinc salts or ammonium salts, also salts formed with organic amines such as optionally hydroxy- substituted mono-, di- or trialkylamines, especially mono-, di- or tri-lower-alkylamines, or with quaternary ammonium bases, e.g. methyl-, ethyl-, diethyl- or triethylamine, mono-, bis- or tris(2-hydroxy-lower-alkyl)amines such as ethanol-, diethanol- or triethanolamine, tris(hydroxymethyl)methylamine or 2-hydroxy-tertiary-butylamine, N.N-di-lower-alkyl- N-(hydroxy-lower-alkyl)amine, such as N,N-dimethyl-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)amine, or N-methyl- D-glucamine, or quaternary ammonium hydroxides such as tetrabutylammonium hydroxide. The compounds of the formula I having a basic group, e.g. an amino group, can form acid addition salts, e.g. with suitable inorganic acids, e.g. hydrohalic acid such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulphuric acid with replacement of one or both protons, phosphoric acid with replacement of one or more protons, e.g. orthophosphoric acid or metaphosphoric acid, or pyrophosphoric acid with replacement of one or more protons, or with organic car boxy lie, sulphonic or phosphonic acids or N-substituted sulphamic acids, e.g. acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, succinic acid, maleic acid, hydroxymaleic acid, methyl maleic acid, fumaric acid, malic acid, tartaric acid, gluconic acid, glucaric acid, glucuronic acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, mandelic acid, salicylic acid, 4-aminosalicylic acid, 2- phenoxybenzoic acid, 2-acetoxybenzoic acid, embonic acid, nicotinic acid, isonicotinic acid, furthermore amino acids such as, for example, the α-amino acids mentioned hereinbelow, and methanesulphonic acid, ethanesulphonic acid, 2-hydroxyethanesul phonic acid, ethane- 1 ,2-disulphonic acid, benzenesulphonic acid, 4-toluenesulphonic acid, naphthalene- 2-sulphonic acid, 2- or 3-phosphoglycerate, glucose 6-phosphate, N-cyclohexylsulphamic acid (to form cyclamates) or with other acidic organic compounds such as ascorbic acid.

Pharmaceutically unsuitable salts may also be used for isolation and purification.
The compounds of the formula (I) also include compounds in which one or more atoms are replaced by their stable, non-radioactive isotopes; for example a hydrogen atom by deuterium.
Prodrug derivatives of the compounds described herein are derivatives thereof which on in vivo use liberate the original compound by a chemical or physiological process. A prodrug may for example be converted into the original compound when a physiological pH is reached or by enzymatic conversion. Possible examples of prodrug derivatives are esters of freely available carboxylic acids, S- and O-acyl derivatives of thiols, alcohols or phenols, the acyl group being defined as above. Preferred derivatives are pharmaceutically acceptable ester derivatives which are converted by solvolysis in physiological medium into the original carboxylic acid, such as, for example, lower alkyl esters, cycloalkyl esters, lower alkenyl esters, benzyl esters, mono- or disubstituted lower alkyl esters such as lower ω-(amino, mono- or dialkylamino, carboxy, lower alkoxycarbonyl) - alkyl esters or such as lower α-(alkanoyloxy, alkoxycarbonyl or dialkylaminocarbonyl) - alkyl esters; conventionally, pivaloyloxymethyl esters and similar esters are used as such.
Because of the close relationship between a free compound, a prodrug derivative and a salt compound, a particular compound in this invention also includes its prodrug derivative and salt form, where this is possible and appropriate.
The groups of compounds mentioned hereinafter are not to be regarded as closed; on the contrary, it is possible for parts of these groups of compounds to be interchanged or replaced by the definitions given above, or omitted, in a worthwhile manner, e.g. to replace general by more specific definitions.

Details of the specific preparation variants can be found in the examples.
The compounds of the formula (I) can also be prepared in optically pure form. Separation into antipodes can take place by methods known per se, either preferably at an early stage in the synthesis by salt formation with an optically active acid such as, for example, (+)- or (-)-mandelic acid and separation of the diastereomeric salts by fractional crystallization or preferably at a rather late stage by derivatizing with a chiral auxiliary component such as, for example, (+)- or (-)-camphanoyl chloride, and separation of the diastereomeric products by chromatography and/or crystallization and subsequent cleavage of the linkage to the chiral auxiliary. The pure diastereomeric salts and derivatives can be analysed to determine the absolute configuration of the contained piperidine by conventional spectroscopic methods, with X-ray spectroscopy on single crystals representing a particularly suitable method.
The compounds of the formula (I), and of the formula (IA), and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts have an inhibitory effect on the natural enzyme renin. The latter passes from the kidneys into the blood and there brings about the cleavage of angiotensinogen to form the decapeptide angiotensin I which is then cleaved in the lung, the kidneys and other organs to the octapeptide angiotensin II. Angiotensin Il raises the blood pressure both directly by arterial constriction, and indirectly by releasing the hormone aldosterone, which retains sodium ions, from the adrenals, which is associated with an increase in the extracellular fluid volume. This increase is attributable to the effect of angiotensin Il itself or of the heptapeptide angiotensin III formed therefrom as cleavage product. Inhibitors of the enzymatic activity of renin bring about a reduction in the formation of angiotensin I and, as a consequence thereof, the formation of a smaller amount of angiotensin II. The reduced concentration of this active peptide hormone is the direct cause of the blood pressure-lowering effect of renin inhibitors.
The effect of renin inhibitors is detected inter alia experimentally by means of in vitro tests where the reduction in the formation of angiotensin I is measured in various systems (human plasma, purified human renin together with synthetic or natural renin substrate). The following in vitro test of Nussberger et al. (1987) J. Cardiovascular Pharmacol., Vol. 9, pp. 39-44, is used inter alia. This test measures the formation of angiotensin I in human plasma. The amount of angiotensin I formed is determined in a subsequent radioimmunoassay. The effect of inhibitors on the formation of angiotensin I is tested in this system by adding various concentrations of these substances. The IC50 is defined as the concentration of the particular inhibitor which reduces the formation of angiotensin I by 50%. The compounds of the present invention show inhibitory effects in the in vitro systems at minimal concentrations of about 10~6 to about 10~10 mol/l.
Renin inhibitors bring about a fall in blood pressure in salt-depleted animals. Human renin differs from renin of other species. Inhibitors of human renin are tested using primates (marmosets, Callithrix jacchus) because human renin and primate renin are substantially homologous in the enzymatically active region. The following in vivo test is employed inter alia: the test compounds are tested on normotensive marmosets of both sexes with a body weight of about 350 g, which are conscious, unrestrained and in their normal cages. Blood pressure and heart rate are measured with a catheter in the descending aorta and are recorded radiometrically. Endogenous release of renin is stimulated by combining a low-salt diet for 1 week with a single intramuscular injection of furosemide (5-(aminosulphonyl)- 4-chloro-2-[(2-furanylmethyl)amino]benzoic acid) (5 mg/kg). 16 hours after the furosemide injection, the test substances are administered either directly into the femoral artery by means of a hypodermic needle or as suspension or solution by gavage into the stomach, and their effect on blood pressure and heart rate is evaluated. The compounds of the present invention have a blood pressure-lowering effect in the described in vivo test with i.v. doses of about 0.003 to about 0.3 mg/kg and with oral doses of about 0.3 to about 30 mg/kg.
The compounds of the formula (I), and preferably of the formula (IA), and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be used as medicines, e.g. in the form of pharmaceutical products.
