ARYLETHENESULFONAMIDE DERIVATIVES AND DRUG
COMPOSITION'., CONTAINING THE SAME
(Technical Field)
The present invention relates to pharmaceuticals, more
particularly, novel arylethenesulfonamide derivatives having
a high affinity to endothelia receptor, pharmaceutically-
acceptable salts thereof and pharmaceutical compositions
containing the same, particuarly an antagonist to endothelia
receptor.
(Background Art)
Endothelia is an endogenous physiologically active
peptide consisting of 21 amino acids and it has been known that,
in endothelia, there are three isopeptides of ET-1, ET-2 anel
ET-3 wherein the amino acid sequences are somewhat different.
Endothelia expresses its physiological action by binding
to an endothelia receptor on a target cell membrane. For
endothelia receptor, it has been clarified until now that there
are at least two subtypes and those subtypes are named ETA and
ETB, respectively. Those receptors differ in their affinity
to endothelia. ETA receptor has a higher affinity to ET-1 and
1


CA 02238723 1998-OS-27
Et-2 than to ET-3 while ETH receptor has the affinity of a similar
degree to the three types of endothelin.
Endothelin and endothelin receptor are produced and
expressed, respectively, in various cells of various organs and
varieties of physiological actions which are caused by them have
been known. For example, in blood vessel, ET-1 which is
produced and secreted in vascular endothelial cells b~ur,~
ETA receptor on smooth muscle cells of blood vessel existing
near there and contracts the blood vessel strongly and
continuously. On the other hand, vascular endothelial cells
themselves express ETH receptor and, when ET-1 is bonded thereto,
nitrogen monoxide (NO) is produced and released. Nitrogen
monoxide has an action of relaxing the smooth muscle of blood
vessel. In fact, when ET-1 is intravenously injected to rat
experimentally, long-lasting hypertension is observed after a
transient hypotension.
As noted from the physiological action in blood vessel
as mentioned above, ET-1 has an aspect as a physiologically
active peptide having a very strong and continuous contraction
to blood vessel and, because of that, its relation to diseases,
particularly to cardiovascular diseases, has been discussed
since the time when it was found.
Today, it is pointed out that there is a possibility that
an excessive secretion of endothelin, particularly ET-1 (to be
more specific, an increase in ET-1 concentration either
2

CA 02238723 1998-OS-27
topically or in tissues and circulating blood), participates
not only in cardiovascular diseases but also in many other
diseases. Thus, it was reported to participate, for example,
in essential hypertension, pulmonary hypertension,
hypertension induced by erythropoietin, hypertension induced
by cyclosporin A, bronchial asthma, acute renal failure,
chronic renal failure, glomerular nephritis, renal failure
induced by cyclosporin, acute myocardial infarction, unstable
angina, congestive heart failure, cerebrovascular spasm mostly
after subarachnoid hemorrhage, cerebroischemic disturbance,
urinary incontinence, benign prostatic hypertrophy,
arteriosclerosis, Raynaud's syndrome, diabetic peripheral
circulatory disturbance, diabetic renal diseases,preeclampsia,
premature delivery, digestive ulcer, hepatic failure,
rheumatism, restenosisafter PTCA,chronic respiratory failure,
chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, cor pulmonale, acute
respiratory failure, pulmonary edema, ischemic hepatic
disturbance, adult respiratory distresssyndrome, interstitia3
pneumonia, pulmonary fibrosis, glaucoma, osteoarthritis,
chronic articular rheumatism, hepatic cirrhosis, inflammatory
bowel diseases (IBD), cancer, etc. (G. M. Rubanyi, M. A. Plokoff,
Pharmacological Reviews, vol. 46, no. 3, 325 (1994); Saishin
Igaku, vol. 49, no.3, 335 (1994); Kidney International, 37,
1487-1491(1990); hancet, 339, 381-385(1992); Cell Mol.

Hepatology, 16, 95-99 (1992); etc.).
Accordingly, pharmaceuticals which inhibit the binding
of ET-1 to endothelin receptor by bonding to endothelin receptor,
i.e. endothelin receptor antagonists, can be effective
preventive and therapeutic agents to the diseases as mentioned
hereinabove.
With regard to such endothelin receptor antagonists, a
series of benzenesulfonamide derivatives is disclosed in the
Japanese Zaid-Open Patent Publications Hei-05/155,864, Hei-
05/222,003,Hei-06/211,810and Hei-07/017,972. In particular,

Ther., 270(1), 228-2345, 1994; Hypertension, 224, 183-188,

(Disclosure of the Invention)
An object of the present invention is to offer novel
compounds having far better antagonizing action to endothelin
receptor.
The present inventors have proceeded a screening for the
compounds having a high affinity to endothelin receptor and,
as a result, they have found that novel arylethenesulfonamide
derivatives which are different from conventional compounds in
such a respect that arylethene group is substituted at
sulfonamide of a pyrimidine ring exhibit a high affinity to
endothelin receptor, particularly to ET" receptor, and strongly
antagonize whereupon the present invention has been achieved.
Thus, the present invention relates to a novel
arylethenesulfonamide derivative represented by the following
formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

31


CA 02238723 1998-OS-27
(Operating Method)
cDNA of human ETA receptor was obtained from mRNA of human
lung by means of an RT-PCR and then transferred into pEF-BOS,
a vector for expression, to prepare plasmid. The prepared
plasmid was added to a culture of COS-1 cells (cell strain
derived from renal cells of African green monkey) with
DEAF-dextran and cDNA of human ETA was transfected to COS-1 cells .
Then it was incubated for three days in a conventional DMEM
( containing 10~ of FBS ) and the COS-1 cells recovered therefrom
were suspended in a hypotonic buffer ( l OmM Tris-HCl and 5mM EDTA;
pH 7.4) followed by homogenizing the cells using a Polytron.
The suspension in which the cells were homogenized was subjected
to an ultracentrifugation ( 100, OOOG for 30 minutes at 4°C ) , the
resulting precipitate (cell membrane fraction) was re-
suspended in a Tris buffer ( 50mM Tris-HC1 and 10 mM MgCl2; pH
7.4) and the suspension was preserved by freezing at -80°C
(protein amount: about 1 mg/ml).
In conducting the experiment of binding the receptor, the
frozen cell membrane sample was melted and resuspended in an
incubation buffer (50 mM Tris-HCl, 10 mM MgCla and 0.01 bovine
serum albumin; pH 7.4). The membrane suspension (200 ,C.t 1)
containing 1 . 25 ,C.~ g as a membrane protein, 25 ,u 1 of an incubation
buffer containing a test compound in various concentrations and
25 ,(.C 1 of [l2sl] ET-1 (specific activity: 2,200 Ci/mM; final
concentration: 25 ,c.C M) were incubated together at 25°C for three
32

CA 02238723 1998-OS-27
hours and then filtered through a glass fiber filter using a
Brandel cell harvester. Measurement of radioactivity on the
glass fiber filter was conducted by means of a gamma-counter
(counting efficiency: 81~). Nonspecific binding was
determined by the use of a test buffer containing O.1,C.LM of
ET-1 . Inhibiting activity of the test compound to [ l2sl ] ET-1
was calculated as a concentration (ICso) necessary for
inhibiting 50~ of the specific binding.
(Results)
The compounds of the present invention strongly
suppressed the binding of ET-1 to human ETA receptor. The result
is shown in the following table.

from thoracic aorta of male Wistar rats (body weight: 300 to
34

CA 02238723 1998-OS-27
350 g). Internal cavity of the ring was lightly rubbed by
sanitary cotton to remove the endothelium. Each of the ring
preparations was mounted with a resting tension of 1 g in an
organ bath filled with 10 ml of a Krebs-Henseleit solution
bubbled with 95~ of Co2 and 5~ of oa. The tension generated from
the ring preparation was recorded isometrically. After
incubating for ten minutes together with a test compound, ET-1
was added to the organ bath in a cumulative manner. The
antagonistic activity of the test compound to ET-1 receptor was
calculated as a concentration (pAa) of the test compound
necessary for transferring the ET-1 concentration-response
curve two-fold to the right hand direction from the width (dose
ratio) of transfer to the right hand direction of the
concentration-response curve of ET-1 of the test compound of
