Description:
DESCRIPTION THIAZOLE DERIVATIVE AND PHARMACEUTICAL USE THEREOF TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a novel thiazole derivative which are useful as medicaments, a process for preparing an intermediate 2-alkyl-6-hydroxy-3 (2H) -pyridazinone for their production and a pharmaceutical composition containing the same.

BACKGROUND ART Adenosine is a ubiquitous biochemical messenger. Adenosine binds to and activates seven-transmembrane spanning G-protein coupled receptors, eliciting a variety of physiological responses.

Adenosine receptors are divided into four known subtypes (i. e., Al, A2a, A2b, and As). These receptor subtypes mediate different, and sometimes opposing, effects. Activation of the adenosine Ai receptor, for example, elicits an increase in renal vascular resistance, while activation of the adenosine A2a receptor elicits a decrease in renal vascular resistance. Accordingly, adenosine antagonists are useful in the prevention and/or treatment of numerous diseases, including cardiac and circulatory disorders, degenerative disorders of the central nervous system, respiratory disorders, and many diseases for which diuretic treatment is suitable.

Some 4-aryl-5- (pyridin-4-yl) thiazole derivatives having adenosine A3 or A2b inhibitory activities are known (e. g. WO-9964418A, JP-2001-114779A, etc. ). However, 4-aryl-5- (6-oxo-1, 6-dihydro- pyridazin-3-yl) thiazole derivatives are not known, so far. In addition, any thiazole derivatives having both of adenosine A1 and A2a inhibitory activities are not known.

It is known that it is generally difficult to selectively alkylate 3,6-dihydroxypyridazine to give 2-alkyl-6-hydroxy-3 (2H)-pyridazinone (see"Pyridazine"ed. by R. N. Castle, John Wiley & Sons, 1973). For example, 3, 6-dihydroxypyridazine is methylated with dimethyl sulfate to give 2-methyl-6-hydroxy-3 (2H) -pyridazinone derivative,

1, 2-dimethyl-3 (2H), 6 (1H)-pyridazinedione and/or 2-methyl-6-methoxy-3 (2H)- pyridazinone depending the reaction condition (K. Eichenberger et al. , Helv. Chim Acta, 37,837 (1954) ).

With diazomethane, 1, 3-dihydroxypyridazine is alkylated to give 6-methoxy-3 (2H)- pyridazinone (F. Arndt, Angew. Chem., 61, 397 (1949) ). With an alkyl halide, 3, 6-dihydroxypyridazine is alkylated to give 2-alkyl-6-alkoxy-3 (2H), 6 (lH)-pyridazinedinone, 2-alkyl-6-hydroxy- 3 (2H) -pyridazinone or 6-alkoxy-3 (2H) -pyridazinone depending the reaction pH condition (R. Sch nbeck, Monatsh Chem. , 90, 284 (1959) ).

Besides, 3,6-dihydroxypyridazine is hardly reactive nor soluble in an usual solvent. R. H. Mizzoni et al reported the preparation of 6-hydroxy-2-alkyl-3 (2H) -pyridazinone by reacting maleic anhydride with alkyl hydrazine (J. Amer. Chem. Soc. , 76,2201 (1954) ). However, alkylhydrazine is too explosive to prepare or obtain commercially.

Therefore, it is desired to develop a safe and convenient process for preparing 2-alkyl-6-hydroxy-3 (2H)-pyridazinone, which is useful intermediate for preparing thiazole derivatives.
