ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to pyridothienopyrimidine compounds useful as selective cGMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors and salts thereof, and processes for the preparation of the same.
BACKGROUND ART
cGMP is a substance playing an important role as a second messenger in the signal transduction system in vivo. Inhibitors of selective cGMP phosphodiesterase (PDE), which is a hydrolase of cGMP, raise cGMP levels in cells and are useful for the prevention and/or therapy of, for example, hypertension, heart failure, cardiac infarction, angina pectoris, arteriosclerosis, restenosis after PTCA (percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty), cardiac edema, pulmonary hypertension, renal failure, renal edema, hepatic edema, asthma, bronchitis, dementia, immunodeficiency, glaucoma or impotentia.
Compounds represented by the following formula are reported as cGMP PDE inhibitors having thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidine skeletons in WO 98/06722 and EP 728759.
wherein, X is an optionally substituted cycloalkyl, phenyl or heterocyclic ring.
Furthermore, WO 98/17668, WO 99/28325 and WO 99/55708 have disclosed compounds represented by the following formulae.
wherein, X is a group, such as alkylene or cycloalkyl, substituted with carboxylic acid, carboxylic acid amide or the like.
