The invention furthermore relates to the physiologically tolerable salts of
the compounds according to formula 1, the processes for the preparation of
the compounds according to formula I, and their pharmaceutical use.
Cyclosporin A (CsA) and FK 506 are immunosuppressant natural
substances derived from fungi which inhibit the Ca+2-dependent [sicJ signal
transmission pathway in some cell types. In T cells, both agents inhibit the
transcription of a number of genes, including the gene for IL-2, which is
activated by stimulation of the T cell receptors (TCR). FK 506 and CsA
both bind with high affinity to -soluble receptor proteins (G. Fischer et al.,
Nature 337, 476-478, 1989; M.W. Harding et al., Nature 341, 755-760,
1989). The FK 506 receptor was called FKBP, the CsA receptor cyclophilin
(Cyp). Both proteins catalyse the isomerization of cis- and traps-amide
bond rotamers of peptides and are also frequently called immunophilins.
The supramolecule of CsA-Cyp or FK 506-FKBP binds calcineurin (CN)
and inhibits its phosphatase activity. A cellular target molecule of CN was
recognized as the cytosolic, phosphorylated component of the transcription
factor NF-AT which, with inadequate CN activity for the action in the cell
nucleus, cannot be dephosphorylated and thus the active transcription
complex on the IL-2 promoter cannot be switched on (M.K. Rosen,
S.L. Schreiber, Angew. Chem. 104 (1992); 413-430; G. Fischer, Angew.
Chem. 106 ( 1994), 1479-1501;
The allergic, asthmatic disorders are based on an inflammatory reaction
which is controlled by T cells and their mediators. Corticosteroids are still
the agent of choice in the treatment of many allergic disorders. CsA and
FK 506 also proved in animal experiments and in clinical studies to be a
favorable therapeutic in bronchial asthma and underlying inflammations. In
REPLACEMENT PAGE (RULE 26)

animal experiments, it was possible to show the blockade of various
cytokines such as IL-2, IL-4 and IL-5, which cause allergically induced
inflammations.
Despite the multiplicity of attempts at the identification of novel active
immunophilin inhibitors, it was not possible until now to prepare or isolate
any more efficacious structures than CsA, FK 506, rapamycin or
derivatives of these natural substances. The high inhibitory potential of
CsA, FK 506 or rapamycin, however, is very considerably reduced by the
manifold side effects, in particular of the kidneys, and neurotoxicity.
(N.H. Sigal et al., J. Exp. Med. 173, 619-628, 1991). What lies behind this
fact is the non-specificity of the interaction between immunophilin ligands
and the cell-specific binding proteins. As a result, the known medicinal
therapeutic action of these immunosuppressants is considerably restricted.
Furthermore, the inadequate selectivity of the compounds proves
problematical, particularly in long-term therapy.
A further compound having immunosuppressant properties was discovered
during the screening of combinatorial substance mixtures (G. Quinkert,
i-i. Bang and D. Reichert, Helv. Chim. Acta 1996, 79, 1260). The structure
published there is an indoline-2-carboxamide which at 10 Nmol exhibited
an inhibition of IL-2 proliferation of 77% and at 1 Nmol an inhibition of IL-2
proliferation of 12%. New measurements at a concentration of 10 Nmol
showed an IL-2-dependent inhibition of proliferation of 29%.
The compounds described in this invention markedly stand out at the C
terminus and in their optical purity of the indolinecarboxylic acid from the
structure mentioned in the publication and additionally show a markedly
better antiasthmatic, antiallergic, antirheumatic, anti-inflammatory, anti
psoriatic and immunosuppressant activity.
A substance class which likewise contains indolinecarboxylic acid as a
central unit and exhibits immunosuppressant properties as well as anti-
asthmatic properties was described in the patent DE 196 16 509.1. The
substances described there differ significantly at the N terminus from the
substances described in this invention.

The invention is based on the object of finding novel compounds having
useful pharmacological properties and making them available by targeted
synthesis.
A class of substance which binds immunophilins surprisingly specifically,
inhibits IL-2-dependent proliferation, and also inhibits the release of TNF-a
and GM-CSF and surprisingly blocks a Ca++-dependent signal transmission
pathway is represented by the compounds of the formula I according to the
invention. This class of compounds and their pharmaceutically acceptable
salts has [sic] a high affinity for immunophilins such as CypA, CypB, CypC
and FKBP12. Moreover, substances of the formula I inhibit various
cytokine syntheses, as ~nrell as a Ca++-dependent signal transmission
pathway.
-(hose compounds of the formula I which contain asymmetric carbon atoms
and therefore as a rule occur as racemates can be separated into the
optically active isomers in a manner known per se, for example using an
optically active acid. However, the possibility also exists of. employing
optically active starting substances to begin with, corresponding optically
active or diastereoisomeric compounds then being obtained as the final
product.
The invention thus comprises compounds of the formula I which contain an
asymmetric carbon atom, the R form, the S form and R, S mixtures, and,
the case of a number of asymmetric carbon atoms, the diastereoisomeric
forms.
Depending on the process conditions and starting substances, the
compounds of the formula I can be obtained as free compounds or in the
form of their salts. The salts obtained can be converted into the free bases
or acids in a manner known per se, for example using acids, alkali or ion
exchangers.
The compounds of the formula I liberated in this way can be converted into
the corresponding physiologically tolerable acid addition salts using
inorganic or organic acids or bases.
Both the free bases and their salts are biologically active. The compounds
of the formula I can be administered in free form or as a salt with a physio-

logically tolerable acid or base. Administration can be carried out orally,
parenterally, intravenously, transdermally or by inhalation.
The invention further relates to pharmaceutical preparations which contain
at least one compound of the formula I or its salts with physiologically
tolerable inorganic or organic acids or bases and, if appropriate, pharma
ceutically utilizable excipients and auxiliaries.
Suitable administration forms are, for example, tablets or coated tablets,
capsules, solutions or ampoules, suppositories, patches or powder
preparations which can be employed in inhalers.
The dose of the abovementioned pharmaceutical preparations depends on
the condition of the patient and on the administration form. The daily dose
of active compound is between 0.01 and 100 mg per kg of body weight per
day.
Examples of compounds of the formula I which may be mentioned are:

The dose of these abovementioned pharmaceutical preparations depends
on the condition of the patient and on the administration form. The daily
dose of active compound is between 0.01 and 100 mg per kg of body
weight.
The compounds of formula (I) according to the invention are distinguished
by immunophilin binding and inhibit its isomerase activity. This prolyl
isomerase activity is tested according to an enzyme test which is
customary worldwide: G. Fischer, H. Bang, A. Schellenberger, Biochim.
8iophys. Acta, 791, 87-97, 1984; D.H. Rich et al., J. Med. Chem. 38, 4164-
4170, 1995).
Without the peptidyl cis-trans isomerase activity of the immunophilins being
affected in each case, such compounds surprisingly specifically inhibit the
TNF-a, GM-CSF, IL-2, IL-4 and IL-5 proliferation of mast cells,
macrophages and activated T cells. The compounds according to the
invention can be employed, like cyclosporin A (Sandimrnun~, CsA), FK 506
or rapamycin (Tacrolimus) as immunosuppressants (R.Y. Galne et al., Br.
Med. J. 282, 934-936, 1981 ), for the treatment of autoimmune disorders
(R.H. Wiener et al., Hepatology 7, 1025, Abst. 9, 1987; L. Fry, J:
Autoimmun. 5, 231-240, 1992, G.J. Feutren, J. Autoimmun. 5, 183-195,
1992, EP 610,743), allergic inflammations (P. Zabel et al., Lancet 343,
1984), [lacuna] antiasthmatics (C. Bachert, Atemw.-Lungenkrkh. 20, 59,
1994), [lacuna] insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (C.R. Stiller, Science,
223, 1362-1367, 1984), sepsis, as a neuroprotectant or for
neuroregeneration in multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's
disease (US 5 614 547, JP 08 333 334, Nature Medicine, 3, 4, 1997),
antirheumatics, psoriasis (SANDORMA, 4, 1995) and also in combination
with known immunophilin ligands such as CsA, FK 506 or rapamycin
(M.J. Wyvratt, N.H. Sigal, Perspectives in Drug Discovery and Design,
Immunosuppression, 2, 1, 1994; WO 92121313, US 5 330 993).

General procedure stage fsicl for the preparation of carboxamides of the
general formula IV:
[lacuna] (3.3 mmol) of the Boc-protected carboxylic acid, 1 eq (3.3 mmol)
of the appropriate amine and 1.5 eq (4.9 mmol) of 2-chloro-1-methyl
pyridinium iodide and 2.5 eq (8.1 mmol, 1.13 ml) of TEA were dissolved or
suspended together in DCM, and the mixture was stirred for 30 min and
refluxed for 6 h. The solvent was distilled off on a rotary evaporator and the
residue was taken up in AcOEt. This suspension was washed twice each
with aqueous KHS04 soln, with aqueous NaOH soln and once with
aqueous, satd NaCI soln, dried over Na2S04 and purified by
chromatography on silica gel using AcOEt/hexane or using CH2C12/MeOH
mixtures.
General procedure for the preparation of sulphonamides of the general
formula VIII:
100 mmol of the amino acid was [sic] suspended in water and treated with
300 mmol of NaOH and with 110 mmol of sulphonyl chloride and the
mixture was heated at 90°C for 4 h. After cooling, it is [sic]
acidified with
aqueous 2N HCI, and the precipitated product was filtered off with suction
and dried at 40°C.
General procedure for the preparation of compounds of the general
formula I:
4.7 mmol of Boc-protected carboxamides [sic] of the general formula IV
were stirred at room temp. for 2 h in DCM/TFA 4:1. The solvt and excess
TFA were removed in vac. The oily residue was stirred at 35°C for
24 h in
120 ml of DCM with a (7 mmol) sulphonamide [sic] of the general formula
VI, with 11.7 mmol of TEA and 7.7 mmol of Mukaiyama reagent. The
solvent was distilled off on a rotary evaporator and the residue was taken
up in AcOEt. This suspension was washed twice each with aqueous
KHS04 soln, with aqueous NaOH soln and once with aqueous satd NaCI
soln, dried over Na2S04 and purified by chromatography on silica gel using
AcOEt/hexane or using CH2CI2/MeOH mixtures.

The listed examples 1-23 proved to be surprisingly strongly binding
immunophilin modulators which are suitable and able as the carrier-
immobilized formula [sic] to bind pathogenic immunophilins from fluids, in
particular body fluids.
To find strongly binding Cyp B or FKBP ligands of the formula I, the
immobilized ligands were subjected to an SDS-PAGE with cell
homogenate. Carrier-immobilized ligands which have a particular affinity
for the immunophilins bind these specifically with a high affinity.
The compounds of formula (I) according to the invention are distinguished
by immunophilin binding and inhibit its peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase
(PPlase) activity. For the initial screening (1 Nmol/l of substance), the
inhibition of human cyclophilin B is determined in the PPlase test. This
PPlase activity is tested for according to an enzyme test which is
customary worldwide: G. Fischer, H. Bang, C. Mech, Biomsd. Biochim.

Biophys. Acfa, 791, 87-97, 7984; D.H. Rich et al., J. Med. Chem. 38, 4164
4170, 9995).
The compounds of the general formula I according to the invention are
preincubated at 4°C for 15 min together with 10 nmol of Cyp B. The
enzyme reaction is started using the test peptide Suc-Ala-Ala-Pro-Phe-Nan
after addition of chymotrypsin and HEPES buffer. The change in extinction
at 390 nm is then monitored and analysed. The photometrically determined
change in extinction results from two subreactions: a) the rapid chymo-
tryptic cleavage of the trans peptide; b) the non-enzymatic cis-trans
isomerization, which is catalysed by cyclophilins. The corresponding
PPlase activity of the compounds of the general formula according to the
invention are [sic] shown in Table 1:

The formation of the supramolecule from CsA-Cyp B-calcineurin (Ca2+-
dependent phosphatase) appears to be responsible for the known
immunosuppressant effects of CsA. For the investigation on the interaction
with this supramolecule from CsA-Cyp B or CsA-Cyp B-calcineurin with cell
homogenates of a human T-cell line, the compounds of the general
formula I according to the invention were incubated with 3H-CsA
(100 nmol). After gel filtration on Superose 12, the radioactivity of the
eluted fractions was measured and compared with the untreated control.
