1~18S5
This invention is directed to a process for preparing novel com-
pounds of the formula: R3
/ R2 N /
O ~ \ R4
S Rl
wherein Rl is lower alkyl; R2 is hydroxy or lower alkoxy; R3 and R4, which
may be the same or different, are lower alkyl or hydrogen; and the pharma-
ceutically acceptable salts thereof.
The invention also relates to a process for the production of
compounds of Formula I as defined above which compri.ses treating a compound
of the formula:
R2OC NOH
~ ~ VI
S \Rl
wherein Rl is as above and R2 is lower alkoxy, with an acid and, if desired,
reacting the amino group contained in the obtained product with an alkylating
agent, and, if desired, hydrolyzing an obtained ester in the presence of a
base and converting an obtained compound into a pharmaceutically acceptable
salt.
Usage of the compounds within the scope of Formula I has resulted
in si.gnificant lowering of lipid levels in the blood of warm-blooded animals.
Background of the Invention
Atherosclerosis, a form of arteriosclerosis, is characterized by
internal thickening of the major blood vessels due to localized accumulati.on
of lipids, of which cholesterol and other ~-lipoproteins, such as triglycer-
ides, comprise the major constituents. Furthermore, it has been ~.ound that
those suffering from the disease exhibit abnorma]ly high blood cholesterol
-1- ~
~.

85S
levels, While the etiology of the disease is not fully understood, it is
believed that ~-lipoproteins, in particular cholesterol, play an important
role.
In the advanced stages of the disease, plaques, comprising chc-
lesterol and other ~-lipoproteins, accumulate in the aorta, coronary, cere-
bral, and peripheral arteries of the lower extremities. As these plaques
increase in size the danger of fibrin deposition, possibly resulting in throm-
bosis and occlusion, is enhanced.
While no sure method has been found for preventing the disease,
it has been recommended that dietary habits be observed that will ensure low
~-lipoprotein levels. Besides stringent dietary management, various thera-
peutic agents such as estrogens, thyroxine analogs and sitosterol preparations
have been used to lower the cholesterol levels of those afflicted with the
condition.
It has now been found that various thiophene derivatives are ef-
fective hypolipemic agents because of their ability to lower the blood lipid
level of warm blooded animals. Consequently, these compounds can be expected
to be useful in the treatment of atherosclerosis and related cardiovascular
diseases which are associated with elevated blood lipid levels.
Detailed ~escription of the In~ention
As used throughout this application, the term "lower alkyl" de-
notes straight and branched chain, saturated aliphatic alkyl groups having
from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl and the
like. The term "lower alkoxy" denotes saturated straight or branched chain
alkoxy groups having from 1 to 8 carbon atoms, such as methoxy, ethoxy, pro-
poxy, isopropoxy and the like. The term "halogen" includes all four halogens,
i.e., chlorine, bromine, iodine, and fluorine. The term "alkali metal" de-
notes sodium, potassium and lithium. The term "alkoxide" as used herein, re-
fers to metal salts, preferably alkali and alkaline earth metal salts of al-
kanols. The term "alkaline earth metal" refers to calcium, barium and mag-

nesium.
The thiophene of Formula I can be obtained by reacting a compound
of the formula:
~0
HS - CH2 - CH2 - C II
\ R'
with a compound of the formula: 2
~ C - CH - Rl III
R0
to form a compound of the formula:
COR'2
fO2R
~ S ~ Rl IV
wherein Rl is as previously defined, R is lower alkyl, R'2 is lower alkoxy
and R8 is halogen, mesyloxy and tosyloxy.
The foregoing reaction is carried out in the presence of a lower
alkanol and an alkali metal alkoxide, preferably methanol and sodium meth-
oxide. Although temperature and pressure are not critical, this reaction is
generally carried out at atmospheric pressure and temperature of from about
15C. to about 60 C., preferably 25 C.
Compound IV is then treated with an alkali metal alkoxide, pre-
ferably sodium methoxide in the presence of an aromatic hydrocarbon, prefer-
ably benzene to form a compound of the formula:
R'20C O
\~ V
S--Rl

wherein Rl and R'2 are as defined above. Although temperatures and pressures
are not critical, this reaction is generally carried out at atmospheric pres-
sure and a temperature of from about 15C. to about 60C., preferably 25C.
Compound V is then transformed to an oxime of the formula:
R'20C NOH
¦ 1 VI
~ S/'\ Rl
wherein Rl and R'2 are as defined above. Any conventional method of prepar-
ing an oxime from a keto compound can be used to convert the 4,5-dihydrothio-
phene of Formula V to the oxime of Formula VI. Preferably, the 4,5-dihydro-
thiophene of Formula V is treated with a hydroxylamine hydrohalide, prefer-
ably hydroxylamine hydrochloride, in a nitrogen-containing base. In carrying
out this reaction, any conventional nitrogen-containing base can be utilized.
The preferred nitrogen-containing bases are the amines. Among the amines
which can be utilized are the primary amines, such as the low¢raIkyamines,
particularly methylamine, ethylamine, and aniline; the secondary amines, such
as the diloweralkylamines, particularly dimethylamine and diethylamine, and
pyrrole; and the tertiary amines, such as the triloweralkyalamines, particu-
larly trimethylamine and triethylamine, pyridine and picoline. Also, in car-
rying out this reaction with a hydroxylamine hydrohalide, temperature and
pressure are not critical, and the reaction can be suitably carried out at
from room temperature to reflux and at atmospheric pressure. Preferably, this
reaction is carried out at room temperature (about 22C.). Further, this re-
action can be carried out in an inert organic solvent. In this reaction any
conventional inert organic solvent can be utilizcd, such as the aliphatic or
aromatic hydrocarbons, as for example n-hexane or benzene. Preferably, this
reaction is carried out in an excess of the nitrogen-containing base, which
serves as the solven~ medium.
The oxime of ~ormula VI is converted to an amine of the formula:
~.

~111855
R'20C N
\ / \
~ ~ \ R4 VII
S Rl
wherein Rl and R'2 are as above, R3 and R4 are hydrogen. This rçaction is
suitably carried out by treating the oxime of Formula VI with an acid, pre-
ferably a hydrohalide, in an inert, organic solvent under substantially an-
hydrous conditions. This reaction can be carried out preferably by treating
the oxime of Formula VI with hydrogen chloride. In carrying out this reac-
tion, any conventional inert organic solvent can be utilized. The preferred
inert organic solvents are the ethers, particularly the dilower alkyl ethers,
such as diethyl ether, and the cyclic ethers, such as tetrahydrofuran and
dioxane. In carrying out this reaction, temperature and pressure are not
critical, and ~his reaction can be suitably carried out at from 0C. to about
70C. and at atmospheric pressure. Preferably, this reaction is carried out
at room temperature. Where it is desired that R3 and/or R4 be lower alkyl,
this moiety may be introduced by conventional procedures for converting an
aromatic primary amine to the N-alkyl derivative. Compound VII may be trans-
formed to the corresponding acid or other esters by conventional methods for
converting esters to the aforementioned compounds.
Compound VII, where R2 is lower alkoxy, may then be converted to
a compound of the formula:
/ R3
2 ~ N
~ ~ R4 VIII
S \ Rl
wherein Rl, R3 and R4 are as previously defined. In carrying out this reac-
tion, any conventional method of basic hydrolysis can be utilized. This hy-
drolysis can be suitably carried out in a conventional inert organic solvent.
. -5-

~111855
The preferred solvents are the lower alkanols, particularly methanol and eth-
anol, and the aqueous ether solvents, preferably the aqueous dilower alkyl
ethers, particularly diethy] ether, and the aqueous cyclic ethers, particular-
ly tetrahydrofuran and dioxane. In this reaction, any conventional base can
be utilized. Among the preferred bases are the alkali metal hydroxides, such
as sodium, potassium and lithium hydroxide, and the alkaline earth metal hy-
droxides, such as barium, calcium and magnesium hydroxides, especially the
alkali metal hydroxides. In this hydrolysis, temperature and pressure are
not critical, and this reaction can be suitab]y carried out at from about
0C. to about 100C. and at atmospheric pressure. Preferably, this reaction
is carried out at reflux, especially at about 70C.
As previously mentioned, the herein described thiophene deriva-
tives as well as their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, lower alkyl esters
and amides, are effective hypolipedemic agents, i.e., they lower the blood
lipid level of mammals. This property has been demonstrated in female Charles
River rats weighing from lS0-1~0 g. The animals are first fed a corn oil-
glucose mixture for several days and then dosed with typical compounds dis-
closed herein in dimethylsulfoxide (DMS0) either orally or parenterally. The
activity of typical compounds disclosed herein on fatty acid and cholesterol
synthesis on isolated rat hepatocytes were also determined.
Comparison of the blood triglyceride levels of rats receiving the
test compounds shows a significant reduction as compared to the triglyceride
levels of untreated animals. Similar resu]ts were obtained in the case of
the rat hep atocytes.
The compounds described herein can be administered parenterally
as well as orally. ~or purposes of parenteral administration, solutions and
suspensions of the herein described compounds in DMS0, water or gum arabic
can be employed. Of particular suitability are sterile a~ueous solutions of
the corresponding water-soluble salts previously described. These dosage
forms are especially suitable for peritoneal injection purposes. The a-~ueous
-6-

8S5
solutions, including those of the salts dissolved in pure distilled water,
are additionally useful for intravenous injection purposes provided that
-6a-
F~

85S
their pH be properly adjusted beforehand. Such solutions should also be
suitable buffered, if necessary, and the liquid diluent first rendered
isotonic with sufficient saline or glucose. In this connection, the
sterile aqueous media employed are readily obtained by standard techniques
well known to those in the art. For instance, distilled water is
ordinarily used as the liquid diluent.
The dosage required to lower the blood lipid level will be
determined by the nature and the extent of the symptoms. Generally,
small dosages will be administered initially with a gradual increase in
dosage until the optimum level is determined. It will generally be found
that when the composition is administered orally, larger quantities of the
active ingredient will be required to produce the same level as produced
by a smaller quantity administered parenterally. In general, from about
0.1 to 1.2 mg. of active ingredient per kilogram of body weight administered
in single or multiple dosage units significantly lowers the blood lipid
level.
The compounds disclosed and claimed herein are also potentially
useful as antiobesity agents.
The following non-limiting examples further illustrate this
invention. All temperatures are in degrees Centigrade and the ether used
is diethyl ether.
Example 1
A solution of 116.S5 g (.971 mole) of methyl-3-mereaptopropionate
in 220 ml of dry methanol at -20 was treated with 52.46 g (.971 mole) of
sodium methoxide. After 20 minutes, a solution of 203.0 g (.971 mole) of
ethyl-2-bromovalerate in 150 g of dry methanol was added dropwise. The
reaction was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred overnight.
The methanol was evaporated and the residue was partitioned between ether/
water. The organic phase was washed with 10% bicarbonate solution and water.
After drying over magnesium sulfate, theether was evaporated to yield 130 g

8S~
( 524 mole, 54%) of methyl-4-thia-5-carbomethoxyoctanoate as a colorless
oil.
Example 2
To a suspension of 54.0 g (1.0 mole) of sodium methoxide in
500 ml of anhydrous benzene was added dropwise at 25, 130 g (.524 mole)
of methyl-4-thia-5-carbomethoxyoctanoate. The mixture was stirred over-
night and poured into ice-water. The aqueous phase was extracted with
benzene/ether, 1:1, and then acidified to pH 1 with 6N HCl. The product,
which partially separates from the water at this point, is taken up in
methylene chloride. The aqueous layer is further extracted with methylene
chloride. The combined organic phases are dried and evaporated to yield
94.0 g (.466 mole, 89%) of pure 4-carbomethoxy-3-keto-2-propyl-
tetrahydrothiophene as a colorless oil.
Example 3
A solution of 94.0 g (.465 mole) of 4-carbomethoxy-3-keto-
2-propyl-tetrahydrothiophene in 250 ml of dry pyridine was treated with
40.0 (.576 mole) of hydroxylamine hydrochloride at 25. The reaction was
stirred overnight at room temperature. The solvent was evaporated and
the residue was partitioned between lN HCl and methylene chloride. The
organic phase was dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated to afford 100 g
(.461 mole, 99%) of pure 4-carbomethoxy-3-keto-2-propyl-tetrahydrothiophene
oxime as a colorless oil.
Example 4
Gaseous hydrogen chloride was bubbled into one liter of
anhydrous ether in which 100.0 g (.461 mole) of 4-carbomethoxy-3-keto-2-
propyl-tetrahydrothiophene oxime had been dissolved. lhis process was
carried out at 0 for one hour. The reaction flask was stoppered with a
drying tube and allowed to stir at room temperature overnight. The solvent
was evaporated until the product crystallized. The white solid was
collected by filtration and washed well with ether to afford 60.0 g
.~

855
(.255 mole, 55%~ of 3-amino-4-carbomethoxy-2-N-propylthiophene hydrochloride,
m.p. 178-180. The product was recrystallized from methanol/ether to yield
50.0 g (.212 mole, 46%) of pure 3-amino-4-carbomethoxy-2-n-propylthiophene
hydrochloride, m.p. 180-181.
Example 5
Fatty Acid and Cholesterol Synthesis in Isolated Hepatocytes
Female Charles River rats are fasted 48 hours, then meal-fed
a 1% corn oil, 70% glucose diet for 7 to 14 days from 8-11 a.m. The
isolated rat hepatocytes are prepared by perfusing the liver in situ.
The hepatocytes are incubated in an oscillating water bath at 37C. for
60 minutes. Each flask contains a total of 2.1 ml volume, consisting of
1 ml isolated rat hepatocytes (10-20 mg dry weight cells), 1 ml Krebs-
Henseleit bicarbonate buffer pH 7.4, 16.5 mM glucose, 1 ~mole L-alanine,
1 ~Ci rU-14C]alanine 1 mCi H20, and 2 mM inhibitor in H20 or DMS0 at
pH 7.4 (unless otherwise specified). All incubations are done in triplicate
and all experiments are repeated at least twice. C02 is collected in each
flask following the 60 minutes incubation by adding 0.3 ml ethanolamine:
2-methoxy-ethanol (1:2) to the center well, 0.4 ml of 62.5% citric acid to
the cell media, and incubating for 45 minutes. The contents of the center
well are transferred to scintillation counting fluid and 14C02 content is
determined. The media is saponified, acidified (only for determining the
rate of lipogenesis) and extracted with hexane. At this stage the lipids
are either counted (to determine the rate of lipogenesis~ or precipitated
with digitonin, washed, and counted (to determine the rate of cholestero-
genesis). The conversion of 3H20 and L14C]alanine into fatty acids or
sterols is determined in a PDS/3, Mar~ II liquid scintillation counting
system. Data are expressed as nmoles 3H20 and [14C]alanine converted into
fatty acids or cholesterol, and nmoles [14CIalanine oxidized to C02 per
mg dry weight cells per 60 minutes. The results are set forth in Table I.

Fatty Acid and Cholesterol Synthesis In Vivo
Rats are prepared by fasting 48 hours and refeeding a 1% corn oil
70% glucose diet for several days (5-15). On the experimental day, rats are
dosed 30 or 60 minutes before the 3 hour meal by oral intubation, or 60 minutes
after the end of the 3 hour meal by intraperitoneal injection. ~The dose
concentrated is in mmoles/kg/5-10 ml ~2 or 1% gum arabic depending on the
solubility of the compound). Rats are sacrificed by decapitation after a
30 minute pulse consisting of: 1 mCi 3H20, 5 ~Ci [U-14C]alanine, 12.3 mg
alanine, and 30.6 mg ~-ketoglutaric acid in 0.25 ml saline, given at the end
of the 3 hour meal by i.v. injection into the tail vein. The livers are
quickly excised, saponified, and acidified (only for determining the rate
of lipogenesis~ and extracted with hexane. At this stage the lipids are
either counted (to determine the rate of lipogenesis) or precipitated with
digitonin, washed, and counted (to determine the rate of cholesterogenesis).
The conversion of 3H20 and [14C]alanine into fatty acids or sterols is
determined in a PDS/3, Mark II liquid scintillation countin~ system. Data
are expressed as ~moles 3H20 nmoles converted into fatty acids and
cholesterol per g liver per 30 minutes. The results are set forth in Tables
II-IV.
