DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
This application is the national phase of PCT/US93/09168, filed on Sep. 30, 1993 and published as WO94/08997 on Apr. 28, 1994.
TECHNICAL FIELD
This invention relates to novel and useful substituted benzylaminoquinuclidine compounds of interest to those in the field of medical chemistry and chemotherapy. More particularly, it is concerned with a novel series of substituted 3-aminoquinuclidines, including their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, which are of special value in view of their ability to antagonize substance P. In this way, these compounds are of use in treating gastrointestinal disorders, central nervous system disorders, inflammatory diseases, asthma, pain and migraine. The invention also includes a new method of therapy within its scope.
BACKGROUND ART
E. J. Warawa in U.S. Pat. No. 3560510 discloses certain 3-amino-2-benzhydrylquinuclidines as being useful as diuretic agents, with the corresponding unsubstituted 3-benzylamino compounds acting as intermediates for same. Additionally, E. J. Warawa et al. in the Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, Vol.18, p.587 (1975) extends this work to other members of the series wherein the 3-amino moiety is either ethylamino, .beta.-phenylethylamino, .beta.-isopropylamino, or 2-furfurylamino, but in no instance is there any substitution on the phenyl group itself.
Furthermore, neither of the aforementioned documents teaches or suggests any of these compounds to be useful as substance P antagonists.
Substance P is a naturally occurring undecapeptide belonging to the tachykinin family of peptides, the latter being so-named because of their prompt stimulatory action on smooth muscle tissue. More specifically, substance P is a pharmaceutically active neuropeptide that is produced in mammals (having originally been isolated from gut) and possesses a characteristic amino acid sequence that is illustrated by D. F. Veber et al. in U.S. Pat. No. 4,680,283. The wide involvement of substance P and other tachykinins in the pathophysiology of numerous diseases has been amply demonstrated in the art. For instance, substance P has recently been shown to be involved in the transmission of pain or migraine (see B. E. B. Sandberg et al., Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, Vol. 25, p.1009 (1982)), as well as in central nervous system disorders such as anxiety and schizophrenia, in respiratory and inflammatory diseases such as asthma and rheumatoid arthritis, respectively, and in gastrointestinal disorders and diseases of GI tract, like ulcerative colitis and Crohn's diseases, etc (see D. Regoli in "Trends in Cluster Headache" edited by F. Sicuteri et al., Elsevier Scientific Publishers, Amsterdam, 1987, PP. 85-95).
In the recent past, some attempts have been made to provide peptide-like substances that are antagonists for substance P and other tachykinin peptides in order to more effectively treat the various disorders and diseases listed above. The peptide-like nature of such substances makes them too labile from a metabolic point of view to serve as practical therapeutic agents in the treatment of disease. The non-peptidic antagonists of the present invention, on the other hand, do not possess this drawback, being far more stable from a metabolic point of view than the previously-discussed prior art agents.
Compounds of similar structure and similar pharmacological activity to the object compounds of the present invention, are described in WO 90/50729 and WO 92/20676.
Particularly, WO 90/05729 discloses a series of cis-3-[(cyclic)methylamino]-2-[(.alpha.-substituted)arylmethyl] quinuclidines including 2-benzhydryl derivatives, 2-substituted benzhydryl derivatives (wherein the substituents were alkyl, alkoxy, halogen and the like), 2-(bis-(2-thienyl)methyl) derivatives and the like. Furthermore, it shows that compounds disclosed in WO 90/05729 have activity as substance P antagonists, antiinflammatory activity and anti-psychotic activity.
Under the circumstances, the present inventors have worked to prepare compounds useful as substance P antagonist, and after extensive resear
