Description:
DIHYDROPYRIMIDONE INHIBITORS OF CALCIUM CHANNEL FUNCTION FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to dihydropyrimidone compounds useful as inhibitors of calcium channel function, pharmaceutical compositions comprising said compounds, and methods of treating calcium channel-dependent disorders including hypertension.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Calcium channels convert electrical signals in the cell membrane into an increase in intracellular calcium, thereby activating many crucial physiological processes, including muscle contraction, hormone secretion, neurotransmission, synaptic plasticity, regulation of enzymatic activites and gene expression. Calcium channels can be classified into a number of types and subtypes, for example L- (or Caul), P/Q- (or Cav2. 1), N- (or Cav2. 2), R- (Cav2. 3) and T- (or Cay3) types. T-type calcium channels can, for example, be subclassified into oclG (or Cav3.1), alH (or Cav3. 2), and all (or Cav 3.3) T channels. See, e. g. , Catterall et al. , Annu. Rev. Cell Dev. Biol. 16,521-55, (2000); and Perez-Reyes et al. , Physiol. Rev. 83,117-161, (2003).

Physiologically, calcium channels are distributed widely. For example, T-type channels can be found in neurons, the heart, kidney, smooth muscle, skeletal muscle, sperm, and endocrine tissues (such as adrenal and pituitary glands and the pancreas).

Consequently, T-type calcium channels are thought to be involved in autonomic nervous functions, and in regulation of cardiovascular activities such as heart rate, arterial and venous smooth muscle innervation and tone, pulmonary rate, and other critical processes.

Due to their role in modulating many physiological processes, abnormal or unwanted calcium channel activity is also associated with many disease states.

Agents which antagonize or agonize the activity of calcium channels have been

shown to be useful as therapies for treating a wide variety of diseases and disorders.

See, e. g., WO 99/23072; EP 0545845; and Kochegarov et al., Expert Opin. Ther.

Patents, 12, 243-287, (2002).

L-channel blockers have a well established role in the treatment of diseases such as hypertension and angina (see e. g. Mannhold et al., Drugs of Today, 30,103- 122,1994). Compounds that have exclusively or predominantly T-channel blocking activity or that have dual L-and T-channel blocking activities are considered to be useful for the treatment of hypertension, angina, arrhythmia, congestive heart failure, renal disease, epilepsy, neuropathic pain, and other diseases and conditions. See, e. g., Perez-Reyes et al., Physiol. Rev. 83,117-161 (2003) and WO 03/07953.

T-channel blockers are also useful for the treatment of sleep disorders, mood disorders, depression, migrane headache, neuronal excitability disorders, hyperaldosteronemia, preterm labor, urinary incontinence, brain aging, or neurodegenerative related diseases such as Alzheimer's disease. See, e. g. , WO 01/02561 ; WO 00/02455; JP11035483 and Chemin et al. , J. Physio., 540,3-14, (2002). Additionally, T-type calcium channels play a role in pancreatic beta-cell insulin secretion. Therefore, T-type blockers may be useful for treatment of hypo- and hyperinsulinemia and the treatment and/or prevention of type 1 and type 2 diabetes as well as microvascular or macrovascular diseases associated with diabetes.

See, e. g. , Bhattacharjee et al., Endocrinology, 138,3735-40, (1997) and WO 00/15845. T-type calcium channel blockers may also be useful in the treatment of cancer. See, e. g. , WO 00/59882 and WO 01/019845.

Drugs such as mibefradil and efonidipine which block both T and L calcium channels have been shown to be useful or potentially useful in a variety of disease states. Such drugs may have therapeutic advantages over calcium channel blockers that predominantly target the L-channel. For example, mibefradil was shown to be useful for the treatment of hypertension and angina and did not show the negative side-effects including inotropy, reflex tachycardia, vasoconstrictive hormone release or peripherial edema, which are often shown by predominantly L-channel blockers.

See, e. g., Sandman et al. , J. Clin. Basic Cardiol., 2, 187-201 (1999) and Glasser et al., J. Clin. Pharmacol., 38,659-669 (1998). Also, mibefradil has been shown to be potentially cardioprotective (see e. g. Villame, Cardiovascular Drugs and Therapy, 15,

41-48 (2001) and Ramies, et al. , J. Mol. Cell Cardiol., 30,475-483, (1998)) and renal protective (see e. g. Honda, J. et al., Hypertension, 19,2031-2037 (2001); Baylis et al., Am. J. Kidney Dis., 38, 1292-1297 (2001) ; Qiu, et al. , J. Hypertension, 1489-1495 (1999); and Karam et al., Hypertension, 34,673-678, (1999) ). Also, unlike most predominant L-channel blockers, mibefradil has been shown to be potentially useful in the treatment of heart failure. See, e. g. , Clozel, et al., Proceedings of the Association of American Physicians, 111, 429-437 (1999); Mulder, et al., Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 29,416 (1997); and Meissner, et al., Exp. Biol.

Med 227, 336-44, (2002). Mibefradil may also be useful in the treatment of atherosclerosis (see e. g. Mason, et al., Biochemical Pharmacology, 55, 1843-1852, (1998) ) and inflammation (see, e. g. , Bilici, et al., Pharmacological Research, 527-531 (2001)). Efonidipine, another calcium channel blocker with a combination of T-and L-channel blocking activities, also shows therapeutic advantages over pure L-channel blockers. See, e. g. , Harada, et al. , Circ. J. 67,139-145 (2003); Hayashi, et al., Amer.

Heart J., 16,116-122 (2003); and Tanaka, et al., Cardiovascular Drug Reviews, 20, 81-92 (2002).

The compounds of formula I which contain an acidic moiety may form salts with a variety of organic and inorganic bases. Exemplary basic salts include ammonium salts, alkali metal salts such as sodium, lithium, and potassium salts, alkaline earth metal salts such as calcium and magnesium salts, salts with organic bases (for example, organic amines) such as benzathines, dicyclohexylamines, hydrabamines (formed with N, N-bis (dehydroabietyl) ethylenediamine), N-methyl-D-glucamines, N-methyl-D-glucamides, t-butyl amines, and salts with amino acids such as arginine, lysine and the like. Basic nitrogen-containing groups may be quaternized with agents such as lower alkyl halides (e. g. methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl chlorides, bromides and iodides), dialkyl sulfates (e. g. dimethyl, diethyl, dibutyl, and diamyl sulfates), long chain halides (e. g. decyl, lauryl, myristyl and stearyl chlorides, bromides and iodides), aralkyl halides (e. g. benzyl and phenethyl bromides), and others.

Prodrugs and solvates of the compounds of the invention are also contemplated herein. The term"prodrug", as employed herein, denotes a compound which, upon administration to a subject, undergoes chemical conversion by metabolic or chemical processes to yield a compound of the formula I, or a salt and/or solvate thereof. Solvates of the compounds of formula I are preferably hydrates. Any tautomers which may exist are also contemplated herein as part of the present invention. Various forms of prodrugs are well known in the art. For examples of such prodrug derivatives, see:

Solvents, temperatures, pressures, and other reaction conditions may be selected by one of ordinary skill in the art. Starting materials are commercially available or readily prepared by one of ordinary skill in the art.

Scheme 1 describes the preparation of the pyrimidine core intermediates. See J. Med. Chem. 33 (5), 1510, (1990). Briefly, an aryl (as depicted in schemes 1-6) or heteroaryl aldehyde 1 is condensed with ketone 2 in the presence of a base such as pyridine to afford a-benzylidine intermediate 3, which is reacted with O- methylisourea or S-methylisothiourea to afford the core structure 4.

Scheme 1

In scheme 2, the pyrimidine core intermediate 4 is alkylated in the presence of a base, such as sodium hydide with a side-chain intermediate 5 to provide intermediate 6. L is a leaving group such as bromo, iodo, or tosyl, and P is an amino protecting group such as Boc or Cbz. Acids such as TFA or HC1 are employed to remove acid-labile protecting groups P (such as Boc groups) and, at the same time, hydrolyze the methoxy or methylthio group to afford intermediate 7. Condensation of the side-chain amine of 7 with an acid chloride in the presence of base such a triethylamine or with an acid in the presence of DCC affords the compound of invention la.

When protecting groups, "P", of intermediate 6 are removed under non-acidic conditions the 2-methyoxy or 2-methylthio group may remain intact and require a separate hydrolysis step for its removal. For example, if P is CBZ and X is oxygen, hydrogenolysis removes the CBZ group to afford 8 and the 2-methyoxy group is hydrolyzed in a separate step using, for example, TFA or aqueous HC1 to afford 7.

Scheme 3

As described in scheme 4, alkylation of core intermediate 4 with protected acid 10 provides intermediate 11, which following deprotection, affording 12, and condensation of the acid group with an amine in the presence of DCC provides compound of the invention If.

The reaction of 14 with a urea in the presence of a base such as sodium hydride provides intermediate 15. Hydrolysis of 15 provides compound of the invention Ig.

Alternatively, treatement of core intermediate 4 with a compound 16 having a leaving group and a protected alcohol provides intermediate 17, which upon deprotection provides intermediate 18. Reaction of 18 with an alkane or arene sulfonyl chloride (such as methane sulfonyl chloride or toluene sulfonyl chloride) in the presence of a base such as triethylamine provides intermediate 19 which can be reacted with urea 19 to provide product of the invention Ig.

Aortic ring protocol: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (250-300 g) were euthanized by C02 and cervical dislocation. The thoracic aorta was removed and placed in physiological salt solution (PSS) of the following composition, in mM: 118.4 NaCl, 4.7 KC1, 1.2 MgCk, 1.2 KH 2PO4, 1. 9 CaCl2, 25.0 NaHC03, and 10.1 glucose. The aorta was cleaned of adherent connective tissue and cut into rings approximately 3 mm wide. The endothelium was removed from each ring by placing the ring on a dissecting probe and gently rolling on PSS-moistened filter paper. Each rat aortic ring was mounted for isometric force recording on stainless steel wires in a 10 ml organ chamber between a micrometer for control of tissue length and a GRASS FT-03 force transducer. Mechanical responses were recorded using a PowerLab'@ data acquisition system. The organ chambers contained PSS aerated with 95% O2, 5% C02 to maintain the pH at 7.4. The experiments were performed at 37°C. The tissues were gradually stretched over a 2 hr equilibration period to approximately 2 g preload.

Compounds were tested for the ability to produce relaxation of aortic rings that were contracted with 80 mM KC1.

Patch-clamp electropvsiology : T-and L-type calcium currents were studied using cell lines stably expressing the cloned human T- (alphalH) and L-type calcium ion channel genes. Membrane current recordings were made with Axopatch 200A and 200B integrating patch-clamp amplifiers (Axon Instruments, Foster City, CA) using the whole-cell variant of the patch-clamp technique. The bath solution, which replaced the cell culture media during experiments, for T-type calcium current experiments contained (in mM): 140 NaCI, 5 CaCl2, 4 KC1, 1 MgCl2, 10 Glucose, 10 HEPES (pH 7. 35, NaOH). The patch

pipette filling solution used T-type calcium current experiments experiments contained (in mM) : 130 KC1, 1 CaCl2, 1 MgCl2, 5 ATP-K2,10 EGTA, 10 HEPES (pH 7.2, KOH). The bath solution for L-type calcium current experiments contained (in mM) : 103 NaCl, 30 BaCl2, 4 CsCl, 1 MgC12, 10 glucose, 10 HEPES (pH 7.35, NaOH). The pipette solution used in L-type calcium current experiments contained (in mM) : 20 CsCl, 20 tetraethylammonium chloride, 82 glutamate, 3 ATP-Mg, 0.5 NaH2PO4, 3 Na2-creatine P04, 11 EGTA, 10 HEPES (pH 7.25, CsOH). The bath and pipette solutions used in L-type calcium current studies minimized current"rundown" over time. Barium has a greater conductance than calcium through the L-type calcium channel and was used as charge carrier in L-type calcium channel experiments to increase whole-cell current amplitude. No protein was present in bath solutions, so concentrations of test agents represent free or unbound test agent.

T-type calcium currents were elicited by repetitive 200ms voltage steps to-30 mV applied from a holding potential of-80 mV. The repetitive voltage steps were continuously applied at a frequency of 0.2 Hz throughout experiments. Effects of compounds were calculated by measuring inhibition of peak current elicited during voltage steps. Peak current was measured from the holding current at-80 mV and used to calculate per cent inhibition. L-type calcium currents were elicited by repetitive 200ms voltage steps to 30 mV applied from a holding potential of-50 mV.

The repetitive voltage steps were continuously applied at a frequency of 0.2 Hz throughout experiments. Effects of compounds were calculated by measuring inhibition of peak current recorded at 30 mV. Data were sampled at rates at least two times the low pass filter rate. The flow rate was kept constant throughout the experiments (-5 ml/min). All membrane currents were recorded at 25°C.
