Phenylpropanolam;nes, their preparation_ and their use
The present invention relates to novel phenylpro-
panolamines, processes for their preparation and their
use in the treatment of disorders.
The phenoxypropanolamine moiety is an essential
structural feature of conventional beta-receptor blockers,
such as toliprolol or bupranolol. Furthermore, USA Patent
2,695,919 discloses phenoxy-substituted phenylalkanolam;nes
which have local anesthetic and bronchodilatory actions.
We have found structurally modified compounds
which have a different action spectrum.
The present invention relates to phenylpropanol-
amine of the formula I
I OR ~H2~B5
where R1 is hydrogen or halogen, R2 is hydrogen, a
saturated or unsaturated hydrocarbon radical of not more
than 15 carbon atoms or phenol, R3 is hydrogen, a sat-
rated or unsaturated hydrocarbon radical of not more than
3 carbon atoms, C1-C4-acyl~ Bunnell, Cz-C4-carb-
alkoxy or a carboxamido group -C0-NHR6, where R6 is
C1-C4-aLkyl, R4 is hydrogen or halogen, R5 is
dimethylamino, piperidino or pyrrolidino and X is oxygen
or sulfur, and their salts with physiologically tolerated
acids.
In formula I, R1 and R4 are preferably each
fluorine, chlorine or bromide in the para-position, but
are each, in particular, hydrogen. R2 is preferably
hydrogen or C1-C4~alkyl, R3 is preferably hydrogen
or C1-C2-acyl and R5 is preferably dimethylamino.
Phenylpropanolamines of the formula I can be pro-
pared by a method in which a compound of the formula II

where R1, R4, R5 and X have the above meanings,
a) is reduced, or
b) is reacted with an appropriately substituted organ-
metallic compound and if desired, the resulting compound is etherified
or esterified and/or converted to its salts -with phase-
logically tolerated acids.
The reduction a) of the compounds II is carried
out in a conventional manner with catalytically activated
hydrogen using, for example, a palladium/carbon catalyst
in an alcohol, or with a metal hydrae ego lithium alum-
nut hydrae d;borane or sodium bordered. This pro-
seedier gives the compounds of the formula I in which R2
and R3 are each hydrogen.
Reaction b) is preferably carried out using Grog-
nerd compounds of the formula R2MgHal or R2Li. This
procedure gives the compounds of the formula I in which
R2 is a hydrocarbon radical or phenol and R3 is hydra-
gent This reaction, like other conventional Grignard
reactions, us carried out in ether or tetrahydrofuran
at from 0 to 60C, the Grignard compound being used
in excess Ether the free bases or the salts of the
compounds of the formula II can be used in this reaction.
The resulting compound of the formula I, where
R3 us hydrogen, can be converted to its alkyd or azalea
derivatives on a conventional manner Reaction with azalea
halides or alkyd halides in a bipolar aprotic solvent, ego
preferably dimethylformamide, on the presence of a base,
ego sodium hydrides leads to the desired compounds of the
~LZ26Z9~
- 3 - OOZE
formula I on which R3 has the above meanings, with the
exception of hydrogen The carboxam;do compounds (R3
= CONNER) are obtained from the compounds I try
= OH) by reaction with an appropriate isocyanate in a
solvent, such as acetonitrile.
The compounds I contain 2 asymmetric carbon atoms,
and are therefore expected to occur as d;astereomers.
However, we have found that, as a result of asymmetric
induction, both the reduction and the action of organ-
metallic reagents on the compounds of the formula II juvenile one diastereomer, which can, if desired, be resolved
into the enantiomers in a conventional manner.
The starting materials of the formula II which
are required for preparation of the compounds I have not
been described to date. They can be prepared from the
corresponding phonics- or ~-thiophenoxyprop;ophenones
by reaction with N,N-substituted ~ethyleneimonium Shelley-
rides (cf. Anger. Chum. 88 t1976), 2161).
The substances according to the invention are
ZOO useful for treating psychological illnesses, on portico-
far depression.
The mechanism of action of a group of therapeutic
gaily frequently used antidepressants (erg. tr1cyclic anti-
depressants) comprises inhibition of the neuron Al uptake
of transmitter substances tnorepinephrine anger surety-
nun). This property is used in biological test models
for characterizing potential antidepressants. The follow-
in method was employed:
Inhibition of neurotransmitter uptake in rat brain sync
aptosomes
The hippo campus and cortex from rat brain were prepared, and homogenized in 0.32 M sucrose solution.
Synaptosomes were obtained by differential centrifuging,
and were suspended in buffer solution. The synaptosomes
are capable of actively taking up added neurotransmitter
substances leg. norepinephrine or serotonin) from the
surrounding medium. my means of uptake inhibitors, it

- - OOZE
us possible to antagonize this process as a function of
concentration. The synaptosomes were mixed with the jest
substances in various concentrations, and then incubated
with OH norepinephrine (hippo campus) or OH serotonin
(cortex) at 37C. The substrate concentration was about
10 no Uptake was terminated by dilution with ice-cold
buffer solution, after which the synaptosomes were sepal
rated off by centrifuging, and the OH activity in the
sediment was measured. A blank value was determined by
incubation at 0~.
The mean inhibitory concentration (ISSUE) was
calculated from the inhibitory values found for various
inhibitor concentrations in comparison with the control,
by a linear regression after--logit-log transformation.
In this test model, the standard antidepressant
imipramine (see Table 1) inhibited both the norepinephrine
uptake and the serotonin uptake in a low concentration
range, the inhibition o; norepinephrine uptake being clear-
lye predominant. On the other hand, the newly developed
ZOO antidepressant femoxetine (see Table 2) exhibits prefer en-
trial inhibition of the uptake of serotonin.
The novel substances can be divided into 3 dip-
fervent groups, based on the type of effect. A first
group exhibits preferential inhibition of the no repine-
shrine uptake and hence corresponds to the ;m;pramine
type, a second group exhibits preferential inhibition
of the serotonin uptake and hence corresponds to the
femoxetine type, and a third group inhibits the uptake
of the two neurotransmitters about equally.
The substances ox group 1 are shown in Table 1.
These include substances which in some cases are very
substantially superior (by a factor of 8 in Examples 1.6
and 5) to imipramine in their absolute potency in the
inhibition of the uptake of norepinephrine. The serotonin
uptake, too, is inhibited, although in substantially higher concentrations. This specific inhibition of the
norep;nephr;ne uptake is expressed by the quotient in
SLY
- 5 - OOZE
the last column of the Table. The higher this value,
the more specific is the inhibition of the norep;nephrine
uptake. All the quotients listed are greater than the
imipramine quotient, in some cases by a very substantial
amount.
Table shows the novel compounds in which the
inhibition of the serotonin uptake predominates. All
the examples listed are more effective by a factor as
high as 1Z~ than the comparative substance femoxetine.
The uptake of norepinephr;ne is also inhibited, although
substantially higher concentrations are required for this.
The spec;f;c;ty of the ;nh;bit;on of the certain uptake
us expressed by the quotient on the last column, a larger
quotient corresponding to greater specificity. Thus,
3 of the examples in the Table have a substantially higher
specificity than femoxet;ne~
The substances of group 3 inhibit the uptake of
the two transmitters equally. The results are summarized
in Table 3. The ISSUE values for the inhibition of the
uptake of norepinephrine and of serotonin are in a lower
concentration range in each case. However, the quotients
of the two ISSUE values are predominantly close to unity,
inducting equal ;nh;b;t;on for the two transmitters.
As a result, the substances differ substantially from,
on the one hand, imipram;ne where, with a quotation of
9~3, the inh;b;t;on of the norep;nephrine uptake is clear-
lye predominant, and, on the other hand, femoxetine where
the ;nh;b;tion of the serotonin uptake exceeds that of
the norepinephr;ne uptake by a factor of 10.
In a generally recognized working hypothesis
it is assumed that depression is caused by a disturbance
of the monoamine metabolism. More recent investigations
indicate the existence of different forms of depression,
in some of which a disturbance of the norepinephrine mote-
holism may predominate, uh;le on others a disturbance
of the serotonin metabolism may be more important. In
the majority of cases, both transmitter systems are pro-
~L~262~L
- 6 - OSSEOUS
badly affected.
On the basis of these clinical hypotheses, the
novel substances can be used in the treatment of depress
sion-related disturbances of these types. Thus, the sub-
stances of group 1 appear appropriate in the case of disk
turbances in the norepinephrine balance, the substances
of group 2 on the case of disturbances on the serotonin
balance and the substances of group 3 in the case of the
stated mixed forms.
