Description

PYRAZOLECARBOXYLIC ACID DERIVATIVES, THEIR PREPARATION
AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING THEM
The present invention relates to a novel pyrazole derivative, to its salts and to the solvates thereof, to a process for their preparation and to pharmaceutical compositions containing them.
Patent applications EP-A-576 357, EP-A-658 546 and WO-97/19063 describe pyrazole derivatives with affinity for cannabinoid receptors.
More particularly, patent appliction EP-A-656 354 describes N-piperidino-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-methylpyrazole-3-carboxamide, also known as SR 141 716, and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof which have very good affinity for the central cannabinoid receptors.
Compounds similar to SR 141716 have been described in the literature, in particular N-piperidino-5-(4-bromophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-methylpyrazole-3-carboxamide, referred to hereinbelow as compound A, which is described by B.F. Thomas et al.
in J. Pharm. Exp. Therap., 1998, 285, 285-292.
The effects of cannabinoids are due to an interaction with specific high-affinity receptors present at the central level (Devane et al., Mol.
Pharmacol., 1988, 34, 605-613) and at the peripheral level (Nye et al., Pharmacol. and Experimental Ther., 1985, 234, 784-791 ; Kaminski et al., 1992, Mol.
Pharmacol., 42, 736-742 ; Munro et al., Nature, 1993, 365, 61-65) .
Characterization of the receptors was made possible by the development of synthetic ligands specific for cannabinoid receptors, such as the agonists WIN 55212-2 (J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther., 1993, 264, 1352-1353) or CP 55,990 (J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther., 1988, 247, 1046-1051). The pharmacology of the CB1 and CB2 cannabinoid receptor subtypes is outlined in Pharmacol. Ther., 1997, 79, 129-130.
A novel N-piperidino-3-pyrazolecarboxamide derivative has now been found which has very good affinity for the CB1 subtype of cannabinoid receptors (CB,_ receptors) with long-lasting action, which is useful in the therapeutic fields in which cannabinoids are known to be involved.
According to one of its aspects, the present invention relates to N-piperidino-5-(4-bromophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-ethylpyrazole-3-carboxamide, of formula:

is treated with 1-aminopiperidine, in an organic solvent and in the presence of a base; and the compound thus obtained is optionally converted into one of its salts or one of the solvates thereof.
The reaction is carried out in basic medium, for example in the presence of triethylamine in an inert solvent such as dichloromethane or tetrahydrofuran.
Functional derivatives of the acid (II) which may be used are the acid chloride, the anhydride, a mixed anhydride, a Ci-C4 alkyl ester in which the alkyl is straight or branched, an activated ester, for example the p-nitrophenyl ester, or the suitably activated free acid, for example activated with N,N-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide or with benzotriazole-N-oxotris(dimethylamino)phosphonium (BOP) hexafluorophosphate.
Thus, by means of the process according to the invention, it is possible to react the acid chloride of formula (II) obtained by reacting thionyl chloride with the acid of formula (II) in an inert solvent, such as benzene or toluene, or a chlorinated solvent (for example dichloromethane, dichloroethane or chloroform), an ether (for example tetrahydrofuran or dioxane), or an amide (for example N,N-dimethylformamide) under an inert atmosphere, at a temperature of between 0°C and the reflux point of the solvent.
One variant of the procedure consists in preparing the mixed anhydride of the acid of formula (II) by reacting ethyl chloroformate with the acid of formula (II), in the presence of a base such as triethylamine.
The acid of formula (II) can be prepared according to the reaction scheme described below, in which:

The 1-aminopiperidine used is a commercial product.

'- 6 The ester of formula (VII) and the acid of formula (II) can be prepared according to another process which constitutes a further subject of the present invention.
This process is illustrated by the reaction scheme below, in which Alk represents a (C1-C6)alkyl and represents an ethyl.

(1I) (VII) This process is characterized in that an alkyl ester, preferably the ethyl ester, of 5-(4-bromophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-ethylpyrazole-3-carboxylic acid is prepared by cyclization of an alkyl ester, preferably the ethyl ester, of 3-(4-bromobenzoyl)-2-(2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-hydrazono)pentanoic acid (IX).
This reaction is carried out in a protic solvent such as an alcohol, for example a C1-Ca alcohol, preferably ethanol, at a temperature of between room temperature and 80°C, preferably in reluxing ethanol.
According to the invention, the alkyl ester, preferably the ethyl ester, of 3-(4-bromobenzoyl)-2-(2-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)hydrazono)pentanoic acid is prepared by the action of a 2,4-dichlorophenylhydrazine salt, preferably the hydrochloride, on an alkyl ester, preferably the ethyl ester, of 4-bromobenzoyl-2-oxopentanoic acid (VIII).
The reaction is carried out in a protic solvent, for example a C1-C4 alcohol, preferably ethanol.
According to the invention, the alkyl ester, preferably the ethyl ester, of 4-bromobenzoyl-2-oxopentanoic acid is prepared by the action of LiE~IDS
and then of an alkyl ester, preferably the ethyl ester, of 2-(1-imidazolyl)-2-oxoacetic acid on bromobutyrophenone.

The reaction is carried out in an organic solvent such as an aromatic solvent or an ether, preferably methyl tent-butyl ether. The first step of this reaction is carried out at low temperature, for example at a temperature between 0°C and -60°C, preferably at a temperature in the region of -20°C; the second step is carried out at a temperature of between room temperature and -20°C, preferably at room temperature.
Thus, according to Scheme 2, the preparation of an alkyl ester of 5-(4-bromophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-ethylpyrazole-3-carboxylic acid (VII) is carried out starting with 4-bromobenzoyl-2-oxopentanoic acid (VIII) by the action of a 2,4-dichlorophenylhydrazine salt, followed by cyclization.
Bromobutyrophenone is commercially available.
The ethyl ester of 2-(1-imidazolyl)-2-oxoacetic acid is described and prepared according to J. Org. Chem., 1981, 46 (1), 211-213.
The present invention also comprises a process for preparing an alkyl ester, preferably the ethyl ester, of 5-(4-bromophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-ethylpyrazole-3-carboxylic acid, from 4-bromobenzoyl-2-oxopentanoic acid, by the action of a 2,4-dichlorophenylhydrazine salt, preferably the hydrochloride, in a protic solvent, for example a C1-CQ alcohol, preferably ethanol. The " 9 reaction is carried out at a temperature of between room temperature and 80°C, preferably in reluxing ethanol.

The compound of formula (I) obtained by the process according to the invention is isolated, in the form of the free base or of a salt or solvate, according to the conventional techniques.
The pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compound of formula (I) comprise the addition salts with acids, such as the hydrochloride, the hydrobromide, the sulphate, the hydrogen sulphate, the dihydrogen phosphate, the methanesulphonate, the methyl sulphate, the oxalate, the maleate, the fumarate, the 1~
2-naphthalenesulphonate, the glyconate, the gluconate, the citrate, the isethionate, the para-toluenesulphonate or the succinate.
The compound of formula (I) can be isolated in the form of one of its salts, for example the hydrochloride or the oxalate; in this case, the free base can be prepared by neutralizing the said salt with an inorganic or organic base, such as sodium hydroxide or ammonium hydroxide, triethylamine or an alkali metal carbonate or bicarbonate such as sodium or potassium carbonate or bicarbonate, and converted into another salt such as the methanesulphonate, fumarate or 2-naphthalenesulphonate.
When the compound of formula (I) is obtained in the form of the free base, the salification is carried out by treatment with the acid chosen in an organic solvent. By treating the free base, dissolved, for example, in an ether such as diethyl ether or in acetone, with a solution of the acid in the same solvent, the corresponding salt is obtained and is then isolated according to the conventional techniques.
The compounds of formula (I) have very good in vitro affinity for the CB1 cannabinoid receptors, under the experimental conditions described by Devane et al., Mol. Pharmacol., 1988, 34, 605-613.
Thus, the compound according to the invention has very strong affinity for human CB1 cannabinoid receptors (Ki = 5.4 nM) which compares favourably with that of SR 141716 for the same receptors, determined under the same conditions (Ki = 34 nM).
The compound according to the invention was also compared with N-piperidino-5-(4-bromophenyl)-1-(2,4-dichlorophenyl)-4-methylpyrazole-3-carboxamide, (compound A). The affinity of this compound for human CB1 cannabinoid receptors, measured under the same conditions, is reflected by a Ki value of 8 nM.
Moreover, the duration of occupation of the Cel receptors present in the brain by the 3 compounds below was compared:
- the compound of formula (I) according to the invention, - SR 141716, - compound A.
The study was performed in vivo in mice, after oral administration of each of the compounds at a dose of 10 mg/kg, according to the technique described in M. Rinaldi-Carmona et al., Life Sciences, 1995, 56, 1941-1947. The results obtained are collated in the table below.

Compound A 89~ 4$

Surprisingly, it is observed that the compound of formula (I) according to the invention is the only compound which shows appreciable occupation (44~) 24 hours after its administration.
Moreover, the antagonist nature of the compound of formula (I) was demonstrated by the results obtained in models of adenylate-cyclase inhibition as described in M. Rinaldi-Carmona et al., J. Pharmacol.
Exp. Ther., 1996, 278, 871-878.
More particularly, the compound of the present invention, in its native form or in the form of one of its pharmaceutically acceptable salts, is a powerful and selective antagonist of the CB1 cannabinoid receptors.
The antagonist nature of the compound according to the invention, as well as its good penetration into the central nervous system, are confirmed by the results obtained in the model of antagonism of the hypothermia induced with a cannabinoid receptor agonist. Thus, the compound of formula (I) according to the invention antagonizes the hypothermia induced with WIN 55212-2 in mice, with an oral EDSO of 0.3 mg/kg in the test described by Pertwee R.G. et al. in Marijuana, 84, Ed. Harvey, D.Y.
Oxford IRL Press, 1985, 263-277. In this test, the activity and the duration of action of 3 compounds were compared. The results obtained are collated in the table below:

Antagonism of the hypothermia induced Duration of action oral EDSOoral 24 h dose Compound of formula 0.3 mg/kg1 mg/kg active (I) SR 141716 0.4 mg/kg1 mg/kg not active 10 mg/kg active Compound A 0.3 mg/kg1 mg/kg not active 10 mg/kg active It is found that the compound of the present invention has an EDSo which is comparable with those of the compounds of the prior art, but its duration of action is markedly longer.
Thus, whereas 24 hours after their administration, SR 141716 and compound A are only active at a dose of 10 mg/kg/p.o., the compound of formula (I) according to the invention is active 24 hours after its administration, at a dose 10 times lower (1 mg/kg/p.o.).
The long-lasting action of the compound of formula (I) according to the invention is particularly noteworthy and represents an important advantage for its use as a medicinal product.
The toxicity of compounds (I) is compatible with their use as medicinal products.
According to another of its aspects, the present invention relates to the use of a compound of formula (I), or one of the pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates thereof, for the preparation of medicinal products intended for treating diseases involving the CB1 cannabinoid receptors.
For example, and in a non-limiting manner, the compound of formula (I) is useful as a psychotropic medicinal product, in particular for the treatment of anxiety disorders, mood disorders, delirium disorders, psychotic disorders in general, for the treatment of schizophrenia and depression, as well as for the treatment of disorders associated with the use of psychotropic substances, in particular in the case of abuse of a substance and/or dependence on a substance, including alcohol dependency and nicotine dependency.
The compound of formula (I) according to the invention can be used as medicinal product for treating neuropathies, migraine, stress, diseases of psychosomatic origin, epilepsy, locomotor disorders, in particular dyskinesias or Parkinson's disease.
The compound of formula (I) according to the 5 invention can also be used as a medicinal product in the treatment of memory disorders, cognitive disorders, in particular in the treatment of senile dementia and Alzheimer's disease, as well as in the treatment of attention disorders or vigilance disorders.
10 Furthermore, the compound of formula (I) may be useful as a neuroprotective agent, in the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.
The compound of formula (I) according to the invention can be used as a medicinal product in the 15 treatment of appetite disorders, cravings (for sugars, carbohydrates, drugs, alcohol or any appetizing substance? and/or eating disorders, in particular as an anorexigenic agent or for the treatment of obesity or bulimia, as well as for the treatment of type II
diabetes or non-insulin-dependent diabetes.
Furthermore, the compound of formula (I) according to the invention can be used as a medicinal product in the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders, diarrheic disorders, ulcers, vomiting, urinary and bladder disorders, cardiovascular disorders, fertility disorders, inflammatory phenomena, infectious diseases and as a medicinal product for anticancer chemotherapy.

' 16 According to the present invention, the compound of formula (I) is most particularly useful for treating psychotic disorders, in particular schizophrenia; for treating appetite disorders and obesity, for treating for memory and cognitive disorders; for treating alcohol dependency or nicotine dependency, i.e. for withdrawal from alcohol and for withdrawal from tobacco.
According to one of its aspects, the present invention relates to the use of a compound of formula (I), its pharmaceutically acceptable salts and the solvates thereof for the treatment of the disorders and diseases indicated above.
According to another of its aspects, the present invention also relates to the use of the compounds of formula (I), in their native form or in radiolabelled form, as a pharmacological tool in man or animals, for detecting and labelling the CB1 receptors.
The compound according to the invention is generally administered as a dosage unit.
The said dosage units are preferably formulated in pharmaceutical compositions in which the active principle is mixed with a pharmaceutical excipient.
Thus, according to another of its aspects, the present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions containing, as active principle, a ' 17 compound of formula (I), one of its pharmaceutically acceptable salts or a solvate thereof.
The compound of formula (I) above and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates can be used at daily doses of from 0.01 to 100 mg per kg of body weight of the mammal to be treated, preferably at daily doses of from 0.02 to 50 mg/kg. In human beings, the dose can preferably range from 0.05 to 4000 mg per day, more particularly from 0.1 to 1000 mg per day depending on the age of the individual to be treated or the type of treatment, i.e. prophylactic or curative treatment. Although these doses are examples of average situations, it is possible to have special cases in which higher doses or lower doses are suitable, and such doses also belong to the invention. According to the usual practice, the dose which is suitable for each patient is determined by the doctor according to the method of administration and the age, weight and response of the said patient.
In the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention for oral, sublingual, inhaled, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous, transdermal, local or rectal administration, the active principle can be administered in unit administration form, as a mixture with conventional pharmaceutical supports, to animals and to human beings. The appropriate unit forms of administration comprise oral-route forms such as tablets, gel capsules, powders, granules and oral solutions or suspensions, sublingual and buccal administration forms, aerosols, topical administration forms, implants, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravenous, intranasal or intraocular administration forms and rectal administration forms.
In the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention, the active principle is generally formulated in dosage units containing from 0.05 to 1000 mg, advantageously from 0.1 to 500 mg and preferably from 1 to 200 mg, of the said active principle per dosage unit for daily administrations.
When a solid composition is prepared in tablet form, a wetting agent such as sodium lauryl sulphate can be added to the micronized or non-micronized active principle, and the whole is mixed with a pharmaceutical vehicle such as silica, gelatin, starch, lactose, magnesium stearate, talc, gum arabic or the like. The tablets can be coated with sucrose, various polymers or other suitable materials or alternatively they can be treated such that they have sustained or delayed activity and such that they release a predetermined amount of active principle continuously.
A preparation in gel capsule form is obtained by mixing the active principle with a diluent such as a glycol or a glycerol ester and by incorporating the mixture obtained into soft or hard gel capsules.

A preparation in the form of a syrup or elixir can contain the active principle together with a sweetener, preferably a calorie-free sweetener, methyl paraben and propyl paraben as antiseptic agents, as well as a flavour enhancer and a suitable colorant.
The water-dispersible powders or granules can contain the active principle as a mixture with dispersants, wetting agents or suspending agents, such as polyvinylpyrrolidine, as well as with sweeteners or flavour enhancers.
For rectal administration, use is made of suppositories which are prepared with binders that melt at the rectal temperature, for example cocoa butter or polyethylene glycols.
For parenteral, intranasal or intraocular administration, aqueous suspensions, isotonic saline solutions or sterile, injectable solutions which contain pharmacologically compatible dispersants and/or solubilizing agents, for example propylene glycol or polyethylene glycol, are used.
Thus, to prepare an aqueous solution which can be injected intravenously, a co-solvent such as, for example, an alcohol, for instance ethanol or a glycol such as polyethylene glycol or propylene glycol, and a hydrophilic surfactant such as Tween~ 80, can be used. To prepare an oily solution which can be injected intramuscularly, the active principle can be dis~;olved with a triglyceride or a glycerol ester.

Creams, ointments or gels can be used for local administration.
For transdermal administration, patches in multilayer form or containing a reservoir in which the 5 active principle may be in alcoholic solution can be used.
For administration by inhalation, an aerosol is used containing, for example, sorbitan trioleate or oleic acid as well as trichlorofluoromethane, 10 dichlorofluoromethane, dichlorotetrafluoroethane or any other biologically compatible propellent gas; it is also possible to use a system containing the active principle alone or combined with an excipient, in powder form.
15 The active principle can also be formulated in the form of microcapsules or microspheres, optionally with one or more supports or additives.
The active principle can also be in the form of a complex with a cyclodextrin, for example a-, Vii- or 20 y-cyclodextrin, 2-hydroxypropyl-(3-cyclodextrin or methyl-(3-cyclodextrin.
Among the forms for sustained release which are useful in the case of chronic treatments, it is possible to use implants. These can be prepared in the form of an oily suspension or in the form of a suspension of microspheres in an isotonic medium.
The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention can contain, along with the compound of formula (I) or one of its pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates, other active principles which can be useful in the treatment of the disorders or diseases indicated above.
