BACKGROUNnD OF ~HEINyE~G~ON
1. Field of ~h~LventiQrJ
The present invention relat~s to am~notetralins tI) which are useful as pharmacotherapies 5 for treatment and prevention of substance abuse, both as a stand alone therapy and as an adjunct with simultaneous psychological or alter~ative phar,macological treattnents.
2~ Des~on of the Related Art Substance abuse, the use of chemicals for recreational mind altering purposes, represents such a serious and well ~nown medical and social problem that it needs no documentation. This 10 is true whe~her the addiction be physical or psychological. It is also true regardless of whether the d.-ug is ;ODâCU), a ~timuiant (cscaLne), depressant (alcohol), opiate narcodc theroin) or one of a number of other subst~nce such as hallucinogens, synthetic opiate narcotics, anti-depressants, etc or designer drugs thereof. Most treatment and/or prevention of substance abuse involves ~counseling~. In some cases, the treatment and/or prevention of substance abuse has been assisted 15 by chernical agents (psychopharmaceutics). For e~ample, disulfram has been used to block the metabolism of ace~aldehyde to acetyl CoA in individuals abusing alcohol. The scientific rational is that since the individual who is tal~ing disulfrarn will become ~siclc~ from the acetaldehyde, he~she w01 theD quit using alcohol. Methadone has been used with opiate narcotic abusers to "rna~ntain~ them so they w01 not need to get a ful~ and further w01 bloclc the ~high~ from the fLl~
20 if tried. The sciendfic rational here is that if the user can not get high from his/her e~pensive (about S25) fu 2 1 times a day, the user w01 stop using the substance. With both disulfram and me~hadone, the use is of lirLused duration to assist the individual to be ~drug free~ while they obtain counseling and are able to live without using chemicals for recreadonal mind altering purposes.
Disulfram and methadone, while useful, have not achieved a success rate as high as desirable.
25 Further, a psychopharrnaceutic for treasrnent/prevendon is need for other substances of abuse.
Re~abOitation of drug abusers has had only minimal success. ln order to enhance the probability for successful treatment, phannacotherapies have been introducod either as adjuncts to psychological treatrnent programs or as sta~d-alone therapies. Such pharmacolherapies to date have had moderate albeit not dramatic success. Por e~arnple, Nasional Insdtutes On Drug Abuse and 30 Alcoholism Research Monograph Series 50, 15 (1981) cited in Arch. Gen. Psychiatry 46, 32' (1989) reports neuroleptic treatment blocl~s the reinforcing wphoric effects of ***e but, because this treatment is dysphoric. it does not reduc or even aggravales the craving for additional cou~ne. ~owaver, ?relim~Dary stlldies reported in Arch Gen. Psychia~ry 4~, 322 (1989) with flupenthi~ol sugges~s ~hat i~ may be possible to deveiop drugs to depress ***e craving as well 35 as use.

Theaminotetralins(+)-cis-(lS,2R)-S-metho~y-l-methyl-2-(n-propylamino)tetralinand(+)-cis-(lS,2R)-5-metho~ty-1 -methyl-2-(di-n-propylam~no)tetralin are lcnown, see US Patent 4,8 î6,284.
It has been found that the aminotetralins (I) are usefi~l as pharmacotherapies for treatment and prevention of substance abuse, both as a stand alone therapv and as an adjunct with sitnultaneous psychological or alternative phannacological treatments.
The aminotetralins (I) of the present invention are useful in a nurnber of different ways in caring for individuals involved with substance abuse or at risl~ of becornming involved. ~Caring"
as used in this patent includes both treatment of e~isting siruations as well as preventing future substance abuse. First, caring is treating an individual who is dependent (either physically or psychologically) on a substance. SecoDd, cariDg is preventing an individual who is recreationally using, but not dependent upon a substance, from becomming dependent on the same or other substances of abuse~ Third, caring is preventing an individual who wæ previously, but not now, 30 dependent from again becornsning dependent on a substance~ Fourth, caring is preventing individuals who have no history of substance abuse but from whos life styles and activities clinicians believe are at risl~ of using subs~sce for recreational ?ur~oses and/or becon~ning dependent on various substances.
Treatable substaDces (drugs) of abuse include ***e~ opia~e narcotics~ barbiruates~

WO 92/19~3~ 9~ PCr/US92/02P' PCP, marihuana, amphetamine and methamphesamine. The most commonJy used abused substances for which the method of the present invention is useful are ***e, heroin, alcohol, cigarettes, marihuana, PCP, amphetamine and methamphetarnine.
The arninotetralins (I) are administed intravenously, intramuscularly, or orally An effe tive amount of the aminotetralins (1) is from about 200 mg/da~ to about 20 g/day, preferrably from about 500 mg/day to about 5 g/day.
Intramuscul~r depo~ preparations are prepared in larger quantities for long termadministration. Oral preparations in tablets, capsule, solution and suspension forrns or as powders to be rnL~ed in food are useful with doses of about S00 mg/day to about 15 g/day total, but more 10 preferrably in the range of about 1 to about 3 g/day.
The aminote~ralins (I) are not themselves addicting (individuals do not become dependent on them).
The aminotetralins (I) are amines, and as such fortn acid addition salts when reacted with acids of sufficient strength. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts include salts of both inorganic and 15 organic acids. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts are preferred over the corresponding free arninotetralins (I) since they produce compounds which are more water soluble and rnore crystalline. The preferred pharmaceutically acceptable salts include salts of the following acids methanesulfonic, hydrocbloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, phosphoric, nitric, benzoic, citric, tartaric, fumaric, maleic, CH3{CH2)n{~OOH where D is O thru 4, HOOC-(CH2)n~00H where n is as 20 defined a~ove.
The e~cact dosage and frequency of adm~nistration depends on the particular aminotetralin O used, ~he particular condition being treated, the severity of the condition being treated, the age, weight, general physical condition of the particular patient, other medication the individual may be taking as is well lcnown to those sl~illed in the art and can be more accurately determined by 25 measuring the blood level or concentration of the arn~notetralin (1) in the patient's blood and/or the patient's response to the particular condition being treated.
DEFINITIONS AND CONVENTIONS
The defi~itions and e~planations below are for the terms as used throughout tbis entire document including both the specificatiion and the claims.
1. ÇQ~ ~ DEFIN~ONS OF VARIABLES
The chemical formulas representing various compounds or molecular fragmeDts in the specification ~nd claims may contain variable substituents in additioD to e:~pressly defined struc ur31 features. r.~se ~/ariable subs;ituents are identiried by a letter or a letter followed by a numerical subscript? for e:~arnple~ ~Zl~ or ~ where ~i~ is an integer. When chernical forrnulas are drawn in a linear fashion~ such as those above, variable substituents contained in parentheses arc bonded to the a~om irnmediately to the left of the Yariable substituent enclosed in parentheses. When two vo 92/1923~ 2 1 ~ 1 9 7 PCl/US92/02808 or re consecutive variable substituents are enclosed in parentheses, each of the consecutive variable substituents is bonded to the immediately preceding atom to the left which is not enclosed in parentheses. Thus, in the formula above, both Ri and Rj are bonded to the preceding carbon atom.
S For these amino~e~ralins with an established system of carbon atom numbering, the car~on atoms are designated as Cj, where ~i" is the integer correspoDdiDg to the carbon atom number.
For example, C6 represents the 6 position or carbon atom number in the molecule as traditionally designated by those skilled in the arn Likewise the term ~R6~ represents a variable substiment (either monoYalent or bivalent) at the C6 position.
A ;igid cyclic (ring~ structure for any compounds herein defines an orientation with respect to the plane OI the ring for substituents attached to each carbon atom of the rigid cyclic compound.
For saturated compounds which have two substituents attached to a carbon atom which is part of a cyclic system, -C(XI)tX2)- the two substituents may be in either an axial or equatorial position relative to the ring and may change benveen axial/equatorial. However, the position of the two substituents relative to the ring and each other remains fixed. While either substituent at times may lie in the plane of the ring (eguatorial) rather than above or below the plane (axial), one substituent is always above the other. ln chemical structural formulas depicting such compounds, a substituent (Xl) which is "below" another substituent (X2) will be identified as being in the alpha () configuration and is identified by a brol~en, dashed or dotted line attachment to the carbon a~om, 20 i.e., by the symbol "- - -" or ~". The corresponding substituen~ attached "above" (X~) the other (X1) is identified as being in the beta (B) configuration and is indica~ed by an unbroken line attach-men~ to the carbon atom.
The carbon atom con~ent of variable substituents is indicated in one of two ways. The first method uses a prefi~ to the entire name of the variable such as ~Cl-C4~, where both ~1" and "4"
are integers representing the minimum and maximum number of carbon atoms in the variable. The prefix is separated from the variable by a space. For example, "Cl-C4 allcyl" represents all~yl of 1 through 4 carbon atoms, (including isomeric forTns thereof unl~ss an express indication to the contrary is given). Whenwer this single prefi~ is given, the prefix indicates the entire carbon atom content of the variable being defined~ Thus C2-C4 alko~ycarbonyl describes a group CH3-(CH2)~,-~CO- where n is zero, one or two. By the second method the carbon atom con~en~ of only each portion of the definition is indicated separately by anclosing the ~Cj-Cj~ designation in parentheses and placing it immediately tno intervening space) before ~he portion of the definition being dafined~ By ~his optional conven~ion (Cl-C3)alkoxyc~rbonyl has the same meaning as C2~4 alkoxyc~rbonyl because the ~CI-C3~ refers only to the carbon atom content of the all~oxy group.
35 Similarly while both C2-C6 alkoxyalkyl and (C1~3)alkoxy(Cl-C3)alkyl define alkoxyallcyl groups contai~ng from 2 to 6 carbon a~oms, the two der;ni~ions differ since the former def~nition allows ' " '' ' ' ' , " .' ' '- , - . , " ~.

WO 92/19234 ;~ 1 Pcr/us92/o28 either the allco~y or allcyl portion alone to contain 4 or 5 carbon atorns while ~he latter definition limits either of these groups to 3 carbon atoms.
