Description
New berbane derivatives, pharmaceutical
compositions containing these compounndss
and process for the preparation of same The invention relates to new berbane derivatives, to pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds and a process for the preparation of same.
The berbane analogues of the biologically active alcaloides of the Rauwolfia plant family exhibit in many cases much better pharmacological activity than the indol analogues. The α2-receptor blocking activity of the berbane analogues (see e.g.
Vizi, E.S., Tόth, I., Somogyi, G.T., Szabό, L.,
Harsing, L.G. and Szantay, Cs.: J. of Med. Chem. 30,
1355 (1987)., EP No. 202 950) is particularly
interesting.
The aim of our invention is to provide new compounds which are more selective than the known α2 adrenoceptor antagonists and so may advantageously be used in the therapy.
It has been found that the racemic and optically active new 13,14-didehydroberbane derivatives of formula (I)
R1 and R2 together form a methylene dioxy group,
and
R3 stands for a straight or branched alkyl having
1-6 carbon atoms - obtained in the course of our experiments, meet this requirement.
According to the process of the invention the new 13,14-didehydroberbane derivatives of formula (I) - wherein R1, R2 and R3 are the same as mentioned above - may be prepared by eliminating water from a racemic or optically active 14-hydroxy derivative of formula (II)
- wherein R1, R2 and R3 are the same as mentioned above.
The elimination of the water may be carried out e.g. by the known Vilsmeier reaction (see L.Szabό,
I. Tόth, L. Tóke, Cs.Szántay; Liebigs Ann. Chem. 1977, 642), wherein thionyl chloride is used as eliminating agent in the presence of dimethyl formamide. The bases obtained are converted into salts by reacting them with physiologically acceptable acids (e.g. hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, citric acid, tartaric acid), as these compounds are more suitable for biological use.
The starting compounds of formula (II) are
disclosed in EP No. 202 950 and may be prepared
according to the methods described therein and in the references cited therein.
The new compounds according to the invention exhibit α2-adrenoceptor antagonistic activity and so they may be used in the pharmaceutical compositions according to the invention as active ingredient
optionally in combination with other known active compounds.
The pharmaceutical compositions according to the invention may be prepared by any known method, e.g. by admixing the compounds of formula (I) or salts thereof optionally with known additives (e.g. diluents, solvents, lubricants, fillers, etc.) and converting the mixture obtained into a form suitable for administration, e.g. for parenteral, oral or rectal administration. As pharmaceutical compositions e.g. tablets, pills, solutions, suspensions, powders, sprays may be prepared.
Methyl-7,8-(methylene-dioxy)-13,14-didehydro- alloberbane-13-carboxylate (compound la) is one of the preferred compounds of the formula (I) and shows a very effective α2-adrenoceptor antagonistic activity in comparison with yohimbine. Moreover this compound does not possess any α-1 adrenoceptor blocking
activity.
