Field of the Invention
Non-peptidic N-arylheteroarylalkyl imidazol-2- one compounds are described for use in treatment of circulatory disorders such as hypertension and congestive heart failure. Of particular interest are angiotensin II antagonist compounds provided by a 1- phenyl-imidazol-2-one having an arylheteroarylmethyl moiety attached at the 3-nitrogen atom of the 1-phenyl- imidazol-2-one.
Background of the Invention
The renin-angiotensin system is one of the hormonal mechanisms involved in regulation of pressure/volume homeostasis and in expression of hypertension. Activation of the renin-angiotensin cascade begins with renin secretion from the juxtaglomerular apparatus of the kidney and culminates in the formation of angiotensin II, the primary active species of this system. This octapeptide, angiotensin II, is a potent vasoconstrictor agent and also produces other physiological effects such as promoting aldosterone secretion, promoting sodium and fluid retention, inhibiting renin secretion, increasing sympathetic nervous system activity, increasing
vasopressin secretion, causing positive cardiac inotropic effect and modulating other hormonal systems.
Previous studies have shown that antagonizing angiotensin II at its receptors is a viable approach to inhibit the renin-angiotensin system, given the pivotal role of this octapeptide which mediates the actions of the renin-angiotensin system through interaction with various tissue receptors. There are several known angiotensin II antagonists, most of which are peptidic in nature. Such peptidic compounds are of limited use due to their lack of oral bioavailability or their short duration of action. Also, commercially-available peptidic angiotensin II antagonists (e.g., Saralasin) have a significant residual agonist activity which further limit their therapeutic application.
Non-peptidic compounds with angiotensin II antagonist properties are known. For example, the sodium salt of 2-n-butyl-4-chloro-l- (2- chlorobenzyl)imidazole-5-acetic acid has specific competitive angiotensin II antagonist activity as shown in a series of binding experiments, functional assays and in vivo tests [P. C. Wong et al, J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther. , 217.(1), 1-7 (1988)]. Also, the sodium salt of 2- butyl-4-chloro-l- (2-nitrobenzyl)imidazole-5-acetic acid has specific competitive angiotensin II antagonist activity as shown in a series of binding experiments, functional assays and in vivo tests [A. T. Chiu et al, European J. Pharmacol., lϋZ, 13-21 (1988)]. A family of l-benzylimidazole-5-acetate derivatives has been shown to have competitive angiotensin II antagonist properties [A. T. Chiu et al, J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther.. 25H (3 ) , 867-874 (1989)]. U.S. Patent No. 4,816,463 to Blankey et al describes a family of 4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-lH-
imidazo (4, 5-c) -tetrahydro-pyridine derivatives useful as antihypertensives, some of which are reported to antagonize the binding of labelled angiotensin II to rat adrenal receptor preparation and thus cause a significant decrease in mean arterial blood pressure in conscious hypertensive rats. EP No. 253,310, published 20 January 1988, describes a series of aralkyl imidazole compounds, including in particular a family of biphenylmethyl substituted i idazoles, as antagonists to the angiotensin II receptor. EP No. 323,841 published 12 July 1989 describes four classes of angiotensin II antagonists, namely, biphenylmethylpyrroles, biphenylmethylpyrazoles, biphenylme hyl-1,2,3-=triazoles and biphenylmethyl 4-substituted-4H-l,2, -triazoles, including the compound 3,5-dibutyl-4-[ (2 ' - carboxybiphenyl-4-yl)methyl] -4H-1,2,4-triazole. U.S. Patent No. 4,880,804 to Carini et al describes a family of biphenylmethylbenzimidazole compounds as angiotensin II receptor blockers for use in treatment of hypertension and congestive heart failure.
There are several families of known compounds having one or two oxo substituents on a triazole ring. For example, East German Patent No. 160,447 published 3 August 1983 describes a family of 1,2, 4-triazolin-5-one compounds, specifically 2, 4-dihydro-4, 5- bis (phenylmethyl) -3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one, for use as herbicides. Belgian Patent No. 806,146 published 16 October 1972 describes a family of triazolinone compounds, including the cpmpound (3- (4-m-chlorophenyl- 1-piperazinyl) -propyl) -3, 4-diethyl-l,2, 4-triazolin-5- one, having tranquilizer, hypotensive and analgesic activities. Belgian Patent No. 631,842 published 28 February 1963 describes a family of 1, 2, 4-triazolones having hypnotic, tranquilizer, narcotic, sedative and
analgetic activities, which includes a class of 4-N- aralkyl-l,2,4-triazol-5-one compounds. EP #7,180 published 15 June 1978 describes a family of 1,2- disubstituted-4-alkyl-l,2, -triazolidine-3,5-dione compounds having a wide variety of activities, such as antiulcer, bronchodilator, antifertility and cardiovascular-related activities which include an ihypertensive, antiarrhythmic, platelet aggregation inhibition and smooth muscle activities. EP #283,310 published 18 March 1987 describes a family of N 1 - diarylmethyl-N 2 -aminoalkyl-diaza-heterocyclic derivatives for treating cerebral vascular and ischemic diseases and for protecting against anoxia.
DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
A class of N-substituted arylheteroarylalkyl l-phenyl-imidazol-2-one compounds useful in treating circulatory disorders, particularly cardiovascular disorders, is defined by Formula I:
wherein A is selected from
wherein m is a number selected from one to four, inclusive;

The term "hydrido" denotes a single hydrogen atom (H) . This hydrido group may be attached, for example, to an oxygen atom to form a hydroxyl group; or, as another example, one hydrido group may be attached to a carbon atom to form a .CH— group; or, as another example, two hydrido groups may be attached to a carbon atom to form a -CH - group. Where the term "alkyl" is used, either alone or within other terms such as "haloalkyl", the term "alkyl" embraces linear or branched radicals having one to about twenty carbon atoms or, preferably, one to about twelve carbon atoms. More preferred alkyl radicals are "lower alkyl" radicals having one to about ten carbon atoms. Most preferred are lower alkyl radicals having one to about five carbon atoms. The term "cycloalkyl" embraces cyclic radicals having three to about ten ring carbon atoms, preferably three to about six carbon atoms, such as cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl and cyclohexyl. The term "haloalkyl" embraces radidals wherein any one or more of the alkyl carbon atoms is substituted with one or more halo groups, preferably selected from bromo, chloro and fluoro. Specifically embraced by the term "haloalkyl" are monohaloalkyl, dihaloalkyl and polyhaloalkyl groups. A monohaloalkyl group, for example, may have either a bromo, a chloro, or a fluoro atom within the group.
Dihaloalkyl and polyhaloalkyl groups may be substituted with two or more of the same halo groups, or may have a combination of different halo groups. A dihaloalkyl group, for example, may have two fluoro atoms, such as difluoromethyl and difluoKobutyl groups, or two chloro atoms, such as a dichloromethyl group, or one fluoro atom and one chloro atom, such as a fluoro-chloromethyl group. Examples of a polyhaloalkyl are trifluoromethyl, 1,1-difluoroethyl, 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl, perfluoroethyl and 2,2,3,3-tetrafluoropropyl groups. The term
"difluoroalkyl" embraces alkyl groups having two fluoro atoms substituted on any one or two of the alkyl group carbon atoms. The terms "alkoxy" and "alkoxyalkyl" embrace linear or branched oxy-containing radicals each having alkyl portions of one to about ten carbon atoms, such as methoxy group. The term "alkoxyalkyl" also embraces alkyl radicals having two or more alkoxy groups attached to the alkyl radical, that is, to form monoalkoxyalkyl and dialkoxyalkyl groups. The "alkoxy" or "alkoxyalkyl" radicals may be further substi-tuted with one or more halo atoms, such as fluoro, chloro or bromo, to provide haloalkoxy or haloalkoxyalkyl groups. The terms "benzyl" and "phenylmethyl" are interchangeable. For any of the foregoing defined radicals, preferred radicals are those containing from one to about ten carbon atoms.
The term "arylheteroarylalkyl" embraces moieties, having an aryl fragment, a heteroaryl fragment and an alkyl fragment, of the type exemplified by moieties shown for the "A" substituent of Formula I, herein.
Specific examples of alkyl groups are methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, sec-butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl, n-pentyl, isopentyl, methylbutyl, dimethylbutyl and neopentyl.
Compounds of Formula I have been found to inhibit the action of angiotensin II in mammals. Angiotensin II is a potent vasoconstrictor and participates in the formation of aldosterone which regulates sodium and water balance in mammals. Thus, compounds of Formula I are therapeutically useful in methods for treating hypertension by administering to a
hypertensive patient a therapeutically-effective amount of a compound of Formula I. The phrase "hypertensive patient" means, in this context, a mammalian subject suffering from or afflicted by the effects of hypertension or susceptible to a hypertensive condition if not treated to prevent or control such hypertension.
Also included in the family of compounds of Formula I are isomeric forms including diastereoisomers and the pharmaceutically-acceptable salts thereof. The term
"pharmaceutically-acceptable salts" embraces salts commonly used to form alkali metal salts and to form addition salts of free acids or free bases. The nature of the salt is not critical, provided that it is pharmaceutically-acceptable. Suitable pharmaceutically-acceptable acid addition salts of compounds of Formula I may be prepared from an inorganic acid or from an organic acid. Examples of such inorganic acids are hydrochloric, hydrobromic, hydroiodic, nitric, carbonic, sulfuric and phosphoric acid. Appropriate organic acids may be selected from aliphatic, cycloaliphatic, aromatic, araliphatic, heterocyclic, carboxylic and sulfonic classes of organic acids, example of which are formic, acetic, propionic, succinic, glycolic, gluconic, lactic, malic, tartaric, citric, ascorbic, glucuronic, maleic, fumaric, pyruvic, aspartic, glutamic, benzoic, anthranilic, p-hydroxybenzoic, salicyclic, phenylacetic, mandelic, embonic (pamoic) , methansulfonic, ethanesulfonic, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonic, pantothenic, benzenesulfonic, toluenesulfonic, sulfanilic, mesylic, cyclohexylaminosulfonic, stearic, algenic, β-hydroxybutyric, malonic, galactaric and galacturonic acid. Suitable pharmaceutically-acceptable base addition salts of compounds of Formula I include metallic salts made from aluminium, calcium, lithium, magnesium, potassium, sodium and zinc or organic salts made from N,N'-
dibenzylethylenediamine, chloroprocaine, choline, diethanolamine, ethylenediamine, meglumine (N-methylgluca- mine) and procaine. All of these salts may be prepared by conventional means from thecorresponding compound of Formula I by reacting, for example, the appropriate acid or base with the compound of Formula I.

BIOLOGICAL EVALUATION
Assay A: Angiotensin II Binding Activity
Compounds of the invention were tested for ability to bind to the smooth muscle angiotenεin II receptor uεing a rat uterine membrane preparation. Angiotenεin II (All) was purchased from Peninsula Labs. -**-25-j-_ an gi 0 tensin n (specific activity of 2200 Ci/mmol) was purchased from Du Pont-New England Nuclear. Other chemicals were obtained from Sigma Chemical Co. This assay was carried out according to the method of Douglas et al fEndocrinology. 106. 120-124 (1980)]. Rat uterine membranes were prepared from freεh tiεsue. All procedures were carried out at 4°C. Uteri were stripped of fat and homogenized in phoεphate-buffered εaline at pH 7.4 containing 5 mM EDTA. The ho ogenate waε centrifuged at 1500 x g for 20 min. , and the εupernatant waε recentrifuged at 100,000 x g for 60 min. The pellet was resuεpended in buffer consisting of 2 mM EDTA and 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5) to a final protein concentration of 4 mg/ml. Aεεay tubeε were charged with 0.25 ml of a solution containing 5 mM MgCl2, 2 mM EDTA, 0.5% bovine serum albumin, 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5 and 12 5 I _ AII (approximately 10^ cpm) in the absence or in the presence of unlabelled ligand. The reaction was initiated by the addition of membrane protein and the mixture was incubated at 25°C for 60 min. The incubation was terminated with ice-cold 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.5) and the mixture waε filtered to εeparate membrane-bound labelled peptide from the free ligand. The incubation tube and filter were waεhed with ice-cold buffer. Filterε were aεεayed for radioactivity in a Micromedic gamma counter. Nonεpecific binding was defined as
binding in the presence of 10 μM of unlabelled All. Specific binding was calculated as total binding minus nonspecific binding. The receptor binding affinity of an All antagonist compound was indicated by the concentration (IC50) of the tested All antagonist which gives 50% displacement of the total specifically bound 1 25 I-AII from the high affinity All receptor. Binding data were analyzed by a nonlinear least-squares curve fitting program. Results are reported in Table I.
Assay R; In Vitro Vascular Smooth Muscle-Response for
The compounds of the invention were tested for antagonist activity in rabbit aortic rings. Male New Zealand white rabbits (2-2.5 kg) were sacrificed using an overdose of pentobarbital and exsanguinated via the carotid arteries. The thoracic aorta was removed, cleaned of adherent fat and connective tissue and then cut into 3-mm ring segments. The endothelium was removed from the rings by gently sliding a rolled-up piece of filter paper into the vessel lumen. The rings were then mounted in a water-jacketed tisεue bath, maintained at 37°C, between moveable and fixed endε of a εtainleεε steel wire with the moveable end attached to an FT03 Grass transducer coupled to a Model 7D Grasε Polygraph for recording isometric force responses. The bath was filled with 20 ml of oxygenated (95% oxygen/5% carbon dioxide) Krebs solution of the following composition (mM) : 130 NaCl, 15 NaHCθ3, 15 KCl, 1.2 NaH2P0 , 1.2 MgS04, 2.5 CaCl2, and 11.4 glucose. The preparations were equilibrated for one hour before approximately one gram of passive tension was placed on the rings. Angiotensin II concentration-responεe curveε were then
recorded (3 X 10 "10 to 1 X 10 ~5 M) . Each concentration of All waε allowed to elicit its maximal contraction, and then All was washed out repeatedly for 30 minutes before rechallenging with a higher concentration of All. Aorta rings were expoεed to the teεt antagoniεt at 10 ~ 5 M for 5 minuteε before challenging with All. Adjacent εegmentε of the same aorta ring were used for all concentration-response curves in the preεence or abεence of the teεt antagoniεt. The effectiveness of the test compound was expressed in terms of pA2 values and were calculated according to H.O. Schild fBr. J. Pharmacol. Chemother. , 2,189-206 (1947)]. The pA 2 value is the concentration of the antagonist which increases the EC50 value for All by a factor of two. Each test antagoniεt waε evaluated in aorta ringε from two rabbitε. Reεults are reported in Table I.
Assay C: In Vivo Intragastric Pressor Assay Response for l Antagonists
Male Sprague-Dawley rats weighing 225-300 grams were aneεthetized with methohexital (30 mg/kg, i.p.) and catheters were implanted into the femoral artery and vein. The catheters were tunneled εubcutaneouεly to exit dorεally, posterior to the head and between the scapulae. The catheters were filled with heparin (1000 units/ml of εaline) . The ratε were returned to their cage and allowed regular rat chow and water ad libitum. After full recovery from εurgery (3-4 days) , rats were placed in Lucite holderε and the arterial line waε connected to a preεεure tranεducer. Arterial pressure was recorded on a Gould polygraph (mmHg) . Angiotensin II waε administered as a 30 ng/kg boluε via the venouε catheter delivered in a 50 μl
volume with a 0.2 ml saline flush. The presεor reεponse in mm Hg was measured by the difference from pre- injection arterial pressure to the maximum pressure achieved. The All injection was repeated every 10 minutes until three consecutive injections yielded responεeε within 4 mmHg of each other. Theεe three reεponεeε were then averaged and repreεented the control reεponεe to All. The test compound waε εuspended in 0.5% methylcelluloεe in water and was administered by gavage. The volume administered was 2 ml/kg body weight. The εtandard dose was 3 mg/kg. Angiotensin II bolus injections were given at 30, 45, 60, 75, 120, 150, and 180 minutes after gavage. The presεor response to All was measured at each time point. The rats were then returned to their cage for future testing. A minimum of 3 days waε allowed between tests. Percent inhibition was calculated for each time point following gavage by the following formula: [ (Control Response - Response at time point) /Control Response] X 100. Resultε are εhown in Table I.
