SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a compound of the formula (I)
wherein R6 is OH or SH, R2 is hydrogen or NH2, R7 and R8 are independently hydrogen or NH2 with the proviso that both canno be NH2 at once, n is an integer of from one through four, Ar is (i) phenyl unsubstituted or substituted by halogen, trifluoromethyl, alkyl of one to four carbon atoms, hydroxy, or alkoxy of from one to four carbon atoms, (ii) 2- or 3-thienyl, or (iii) 2- or 3-furanyl with the proviso that when R6 is OH, and R2 is H2N, and R7 and R8 are both hydrogen then Ar cannot be unsubstituted phenyl; or a pharmaceutically acceptable base or acid addition salt thereof.
The present invention also includes methods of manufacturing and novel intermediates therein, and a pharmaceutical composition for treating autoimmune diseases such as arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, inflammatory bowel diseases, juvenile diabetes, myasthenia gravis, multiple sclerosis, gout and gouty arthritis, as well as psoriasis, viral infections and cancer, or rejection of transplantation, comprising an anti-psoriatic, immunomodulator or antirejection effective amount such as an advantageously cytotoxic to T-cell amount, of a compound of the formula (I)

The above preparations use standard synthetic techniques or techniques as shown or similar to those as shown in the examples hereinafter. The starting materials for the preparation are readily available, known or can be prepared by known methods. The methods of manufacture for the compounds of the present invention are summarized in the following Schemes I and II.
/
N
Under certain circumstances it may be necessary to protect either the N or O of intermediates in the above noted process with suitable protecting groups which are known. Introduction and removal of such suitable oxygen and nitrogen protecting groups are well-known in the art of organic chemistry; see for example, (1) "Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry," J. F. W. McOmie, ed., (New York, 1973), pp 43ff, 95ff; (2) J. F. W. McOmie, Advances in Organic Chemistry, Vol. 3, 191-281 (1963); (3) R. A. Borssonas, Advances in Organic Chemistry, Vol. 3, 159-190 (1963); and (4) J. F. W. McOmie, Chem. & Ind., 603 (1979).
Examples of suitable oxygen protecting groups are benzyl, t-butyldimethylsilyl, methyl, isopropyl, ethyl, tertiary butyl, ethoxyethyl, and the like. Protection of an N-H containing moiety is necessary for some of the processes described herein for the preparation of compounds of this invention. Suitable nitrogen protecting groups are benzyl, triphenylmethyl, trialkylsilyl, trichloroethylcarbamate, trichloroethoxycarbonyl, vinyloxycarbamate, and the like. Under certain circumstances it is necessary to protect two different oxygens with dissimilar protecting groups such that one can be selectively removed while leaving the other in place. The benzyl and t-butyldimethylsilyl groups are used in this way; either is removable in the presence of the other, benzyl being removed by catalytic hydrogenolysis, and t-butyldimethylsilyl being removed by reaction with, for example, tetra-n-butγlammonium fluoride.
In the process described herein for the preparation of compounds of this invention the requirements for protective groups are generally well recognized by one skilled in the art of organic chemistry, and accordingly the use of appropriate protecting groups is necessarily implied by the processes of the charts herein, although not expressly illustrated. The products of the reactions described herein are isolated by conventional means such as extraction, distillation, chromatography, and the like.
The salts of compounds of formula I described above are prepared by reacting the appropriate base with stoichometric equivalent of the acid compounds of formula I to obtain pharmacologically acceptable salts thereof. The compounds of this invention may also exist in hydrated or solvated forms.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The compounds of formula I of the present invention exist in tautomeric forms as purines or guanines as illustrated below. Both forms are included as part of the invention and are indiscriminately described in the specification.
The term "alkyl of one to four carbon atoms" means a straight or branched hydrocarbon chain up to four carbon atoms such as, for example, methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl,isobutyl, secondary butyl or tertiary butyl. Alkoxy of one to four carbon atoms includes methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, butoxy and isomers thereof. Halogen is fluorine, chlorine, bromine, or iodine. The compounds of formula I are useful both in the free base form, in the form of base salts where possible, and in the form of acid addition salts. The three forms are within the scope of the invention. In practice, use of the salt form amounts to use of the base form. Appropriate pharmaceutically acceptable salts within the scope of the invention are those derived from mineral acids such as hydrochloric acid and
sulfuric acid, and organic acids such as methanesulfonic acid, benzenesulfoniσ acid, p-toluenesulfonate, and the like, respectively, or those derived from bases such as suitable organic and inorganic bases. Examples of suitable inorganic bases for the formation of salts of compounds of this invention include the hydroxides of ammonia, sodium, lithium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, aluminum, zinc, and the like.
Salts may also be formed with suitable organic bases. Bases suitable for the formation of pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts with compounds of the present invention include organic bases which are nontoxic and strong enough to form such salts. These organic bases form a class whose limits are readily understood by those skilled in the art. Merely for purposes of illustration, the class may be said to include mono-, di-, and trialkylamines, such as methylamine, dimethylamine, and triethylamine; mono-, di-, or trihydroxyalkylamines such as mono-, di-, and triethanolamine; amino acids such as arginine, and lysine; guanidine; N-methylglucamine; L-glutamine; N-methylpiperazine; morpholine; ethylenediamine; N-benzylphenethylamine; tri (hydroxymethyl) aminomethane; and the like. (See for example, "Pharmaceutical Salts," J. Pharm. Sci. (1977) 66(1):1-19.)
The acid addition salts of said basic compounds are prepared either by dissolving the free base of compound I in aqueous or aqueous alcohol solution or other suitable solvents containing the appropriate acid or base and isolating the salt by evaporating the solution, or by reacting the free base of compound I with an acid as well as reacting compound I having an acid group thereon with a base such that the reactions are in an organic solvent, in which case the salt separates directly or can be obtained by concentration of the solution.
A preferred embodiment of the present invention is a compound of formula I wherein R6 is OH or SH; R2 and R8 are NH2, n is one, and Ar is 2- or 3-thienyl. A more preferred embodiment is 2-amino-7-(2-thienylmethyl)-4-pyrrolo[2,3-d)] pyrimidone.
The compositions having compounds of the formula I of the present invention are shown to exhibit significant enzyme inhibition activity and cytotoxicity activity. In the purine nucleoside phosphorylase (PNP-4) enzyme assay, an IC50 is achieved at a dose of 1.0 micromoles on a selected compound of the present invention. PNP-4 activity for the compound of formula I is measured radiochemically by measuring the formation of [14-Cjhypoxanthine from [14-C]inosine
[Biomedicine, 33, 39 (1980)] using human erythrocyte as the enzyme source.
It is known that an in vivo inhibition of purine nucleoside phosphorylase (HPLC-1) enzyme assay may also be used essentially as disclosed in the Annals of New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 451, Page 313 (1985) to further show the activity for compositions of the compounds of formula I of the present invention. The present invention compositions also are generally shown by a standard test (HTBA-1) [Science, 214, 1137, (1981)] to be selectively cytotoxic for. T-cells in the presence of 2'-deoxyguanosine at a similar concentration range and nontoxic to B-cell in the presence of the same amount of 2'-deoxyguanosine by the compound of Example 2, thus demonstrating utility for the compounds of formula I in pharmaceutical compositions as described herein. Since PNP inhibition and removal of T-cells or modulation of T-cells are known to be characteristics of compounds beneficial in the treatment of psoriasis, rejection phenomenon in transplantation, and autoimmune diseases, the present invention compositions of compounds being selectively cytotoxic to T-cells and being PNP inhibitors will, therefore, also be useful in such treatment. For example, 8-Aminoguanosine, a known PNP-inhibitor, has been shown to be efficacious for inhibiting rejection of skin graft in dogs [J. B. Benear, et al. Transplantation, 1986, 41:274]. Clinically it has been shown that modulation and/or removal of T-cells by thoracic duct drainage, lymphapheresis or total lymphoid irradiation gave partial to complete relief from rheumatoid arthritis in patients who were totally refractory to other forms of therapy
(A. Tanay, et al, Arthritis and Rheumatism, Vol. 30, No. 1, p. 1 (1987). S. Strober, et al. Annual of Internal Medicine, V-102, No. 4, 441-449 (1985); H. G. Nusslein, et al. Arthritis and Rheumatism, V-28, No. 11, 1205-1210 (1985); E. Brahn, et al, ibid, V-27, No. 5, 481-487 (1984), and J. Karsh, et al, ibid, V-24, No. 7, 867-873 (1981)). Cyclosporin A, a T-cell modulator, showed beneficial effects in the treatment of juvenile diabetes. (A. Assan, et al. The Lancet, January 12, p. 67 (1985).) Additionally, cyclosporin A is presently the drug of choice for the prevention of transplant rejection, (R. M. Merion, et al. New Eng. J. Med., (1984) 148). More recently, cyclosporin A is shown to be useful to treat psoriasis. Further, it is suggested the cyclosporin therapy is shown to markedly reduce activated T-cells in psoriatic lesions. Therefore, it is reasonable to believe the basis of the successful treatment of psoriasis is modulation of T-cell activity as shown by compounds in the present invention composition. (See C. N. Ellis, et al, JAMA, V-256, No. 22, Dec. 12, 1986, pp. 3110-3116.) Finally, cyclosporin A is shown to be efficacious in rheumatoid arthritis. (M. E. Weinblatt, et al. Arthritis and Rheumatism, V-30, No. 1, pp. 11-17 (January, 1987); O. Forre, et al. Arthritis and Rheumatism, V-30, No. 1, pp. 88-92 (January, 1987); M. Dougados, et al. Arthritis and Rheumatism, Vol. 30, No. 1, pp. 83-87 (January, 1987).
Representative examples from the present invention are shown in the following activity table to provide the activity discussed above.
ACTIVITY TABLE
Th = Thiophene
In vivo studies based on the above noted disclosures may be used to determine activity in the particular disease states noted.
Since T-cells play a central role in immune response, use of the compounds of the invention is contemplated for the immunoregulation to prevent rejection in transplantation or in the treatment of psoriasis and in the treatment of autoimmune disease such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythrematosus, inflammatory bowel disease, multiple sclerosis, myasthemia gravis, gout or gouty arthritis, juvenile diabetes, cancer, and viral diseases. The present invention thus includes compositions containing a compound of formula I in treating rejection of transplantation or disease such as psoriasis in humans or autoimmune disease characterized by abnormal immune response in primates or humans. According to this aspect of the invention, the properties of the compounds of the invention are utilized by administering to a warmblooded animal an effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition
containing as the active ingredient at least about 0.1 percent by weight, based on the total weight of the composition of at least one such compound of the invention.
Pharmaceutical compositions of the invention can be formulated in any suitable way, preferably with an inert carrier for administration orally, parenterally, ophthalmically, topically, or by suppository.
For example, the compounds of the present invention are formulated into dosage forms such as tablets or syrups by blending with an inert pharmaceutical carrier such as lactose or simple syrup by methods well-known in the art. For injectable dosage forms, they are formulated with vehicles such as water, propylene glycol, peanut oil, sesame oil, and the like. In these dosage forms, the active ingredient is from about 0.05 grams to 0.5 grams per dosage unit.
The present invention is further illustrated by way of the following examples.
Example 1 2-Amino-6-[(2-thienylmethyl)amino]-4-pyrimidinol 2-Amino-6-chloro-4-pyrimidinol, monohydrate (85%, 100 g, 0.5197 mol) was suspended in methoxyethanol (700 ml) and 2-thienylmethylamine (96%, 61.3 g, 0.5197 mol) was added to the suspension. The mixture was heated under reflux for two hours and then 73 ml (d = 0.726; 0.52 mol) of triethylamine was added and the refluxing continued for an additional 18 hours. The reaction mixture was poured into ice water (1000 ml), acidified with acetic acid (ph 4.0) and the precipitated solid was filtered, washed, and dried. Yield: 110 g (72.6%). This was used in the next step without further purification.
Example 2
2-Amino-7-(2-thienylmethyl)-4-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidones
Chloroacetaldehyde dimethyl acetal (14 ml) was added to water (50 ml) and concentrated HCl (2.0 ml). The mixture was heated at reflux temperature for 30 minutes and then
neutralized with sodium acetate (10 g). The resulting solution was added in one portion to a mixture of 2-amino-4- (2-thienylmethyl)-6-pyrimidone (10 g; 45 mmol), sodium acetate (5.0 g) and hot water (50 ml). The mixture was allowed to stir on a steam bath (80°C) for 30 minutes, and the precipitated solid was filtered, washed with water, and dried in vacuo. The crude product was dissolved in methanol and concentrated HCl and treated with charcoal to remove coloring matter. The product (3.2 g) thus obtained was recrystallized from methanol and 1N HCl (100 ml) to give 1.68 g (13.5%) of the desired product as light brown solid, mp 243-245°C (dec).
2-Amino-4-chloro-6-[2-thienγlmethyl)amino]-5-(2,2-diethoxyethyl)pyrimidine
A solution of 2-amino-4,6-dichloro-5-(2,2-diethoxyethyl) pyrimidine (M. Legraverend, et al, J. Med. Chem., 1985,
28:1477) (906 mg, 3.20 mmol) in 40 ml of n-butanol containing Et3N (1 ml) and 2-thienylamine (425 mg, 3.75 mmol) was heated at 100°C for 48 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled to 25°C and concentrated. The residue was cooled to 25°C and concentrated. The residue was purified by column chromatography over silica gel and eluted with chloroform to give the desired product (1.045 g) (91.5%) as a yellow oil.
2-Amino-4-chloro-7-(2-thienylmethyl)pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidine A suspension of 2-amino-4-chloro-6-[(2-thienylmethyl) amino]-5-(2,2-diethoxyethyl)pyrimidine (1.0 g, 2.80 mmol) in
65 ml of 0.3N HCl and ethanol (2.25:1) was stirred at 25°C for 24 hours. The reaction mixture was neutralized with ammonium hydroxide solution and the product collected by filtration. TLC analysis showed that the reaction was not complete, so, the product was resuspended in 50 ml of 0.2N HCl and stirred for 48 hours. The reaction mixture was neutralized with NH4OH solution and concentrated. The residue was taken up in water and then evaporated to dryness to give yellow solid (573 mg) (77.3%). This was used in the next step without further purification.
2-Amino-7-(2-thienylmethyl)-4-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidone 2-Amino-4-chloro-7-(2-thienylmethyl)pyrrolo[2,3-d] pyrimidine (563 rag, 2.10 mmol) was suspended in 30 ml of IN HCl and ethanol (1:1) and the mixture was heated at reflux for 8 hours. Removal of solvent gave a residue which was chromatographed over silica gel and eluted with a mixture of hexane-ethyl-acetate (10:1) to give 139 mg of a mixture of 4-chloro and 4-ethoxy derivatives. So, it was dissolved in 30 ml of 3N HCl and the solution was heated to reflux for 2 hours and then allowed to cool. The precipitated solid was filtered and then recrystallized from methanol - 1N HCl (1:1) mixture to give 55 mg of the desired product as hydrochloride salt, mp 235-237°C (dec).
