W O 93/16073 C A 2 i 1 7 4 3 4 P(~r/GB93/00285 PIPERAZINE AND PIPERIDINE DERIVATIVES, AND THEIR USE AS AN~ L~UI1CS

The present invention relates to a group of pipero7;- and piperidine d~ oLl~__, to processes for their ~,., ' , to 1' 'co1 compositions ,r~~toining them ant to their w e in therapy, in particular in the tre-tment of psychotic disorders.

Receptors for the chemical messenger dopamine are known to be located in the striatum and the limbic brain area and such receptors have been clossifiod as Dl and D2 based on receptor binding studies and on the presence or absence of a positive coupling between the r-ceptor and adenylate cvclase activity. Activation of the Dl-receptor is a~o-io~ ~ with at' loti~ of adenylate cyclase, whereas the D2-receptor mediates ' , - ~lc effects that do not involve direct st; lotirn of this enzyme tsee Kebabian ~ Calne, Nature, 1979, ~2~, 93 and Harrold et ~1, J. ~ed. Chem., 1987, 30, 1631). Although the distinct functions of the Dl- and D2-receptors are not clear cut, a : strong correl-tion is believed to exist between D2-receptor ~-t Dgr~
snd ~ I.vtlc activity (see SeemAn~ r - 1 . Rev., 1981, 32, 229, Seeman et ~ irrhotr r 1., 1985, 34, 151, Creese et al, 55i~ ~, 1976, 192, 481 nd Leysen in Clinirol Ph9 lo~v in ~svrhiAtrv Neuroleotic __A ~ tti~ Co~rch- Eds Usdin, Dahl, Gram and Lingjaerde, ~ ~ Basingstoke, 1982; pp35-52).

The chenical - _ 5-hydroxy L~ ~ro (5-HT) occurs widely in the central nervo w system and is known to be involved in the control of behavior. A number of different 5-HT receptors and receptor sub-types have been id -'f;oA In addition to the blockade of D2-receptors, it has been r - l~t-d that 5-HT2 receptor antAgr~ is also desirable in an ~ ,' L-r agent (see Janssen t al, J. Yharm.
and EYn~r. ~1 ., 1988, 244(21, 685). In particular it has been postulated that blockade of central dopamine D2-receptors may control the positive symptoms of e~hi r' ~nia (e.g. delusions and ~ol1r-inotj~ ) whilst blockade of 5-hT2 receptors may assist in the 1iorAtio~t of the neegative symptoms of schizophrenia (e.g. apathy CA 2 i i 7434 W O 93/16073 - 2 - PCT/GB93/0028~

and social withdraw l). It has also been suggested that blockade of tne 5-hT2 receptor results in a reduction of the 9A '~91 side effects which are known to occur in the case of neuroleptic 'nr-n-~r~ therapy with many known antipsychotic agents.

P,~ ic b~n7i~othio~~1es and bon~ ys7oles are described in US~968792, EP035713~ and EP0196132. Purther anti-psychotic piperidines and piporo7;n.~ are disclosed in DE2503816, EP0329168 and EP0013612.

A group of pip~ro~i and piperidine derivatives has been discovered tha~ are potent antagonists of dopamine D2 receptors and/'or 5-hT2 receptors and are therefore useful in the trearment of psychotic disorders.

The compounds of formula (I) show an ~vP-r~e~ profile of 1' lrgir~l activiry and are useful in the trestment of a number of - ' riO~C. The compounds show, for example anxiolytic, centr-lly-acting muscle relaxant, and ~ti~ L activity. They may also be useful in the treatment of aggression ~CcociAte~ with senile dementia, borderline personal1ty disorders and as a broad-spectrum ~ti~ tir, In particular the compounds are useful in the treatment of psychotic disorders such as 5rhi r~ ~.,ia.
-CA2i 1 7434 W O 93/16073 PC~r/GB93/00285 Potential antipsychotic activity can be assessed by the ability of acompound to block ~ l~in~_induced climbing in the mouse (see Ogren et al, F~lr. J, Pharmacol., 1984, 12, 459, Iversen, Science, 1975, 188, 1084 and Gudelsky & hoore, J. Neural Transm., 1976, 38, 95). The tendency of a compound to induce catalepsy and its ability to block ~ ro induced ~Le~. L~t ~ are behavioural measures which indicate the potential of a compound to induce ~ALL~t~ 'A91 side effects.

The compounds of formula (I) are, in general, potent antagonists at dopamine D2 receptors and at 5-HT2 receptors suggesting potential utility as antipsychotics. This profile of activity has been confirmed by the potency of compounds of formula (I) in the mouse-climbing assay and by good ratios of the dose required for potency in this assay to the dose required for the induction of catalepsy.

Certain compounds of formula (I) are also potent agonists at the SHTlA
- receptor. This activity has been sccociAr~d with anti-depressant and anAiolytic effects as well as with a reduction of . ,~
side-effects. The - i ~n of potent dopamine D2 receptor sntserni~~ and 5-hT2 receptor -_tsgoni~ with 5-HTlA receptor agonism which is to be found in preferred compounds of formula (I) is a particularly r ~ gr profile of activity for an anti-psychotic agent and, in particular, for a drug for use in the treatment of 5~h~ r~ ,.,ia.

According to a further aspect, the present invention also provides a methot for the treatment or prophylaAis in a mammal of a disorder selected from the following:

In particular the invention provides a method for the treatment or prophylaxis in a mammal of a psychotic disorder which comprises administering to the mammal an anti-psychotic effective treatment amount of a compound of formula (I) or a physiologically acceptable salt or solvate thereof or a physiologically f~nrti OnAl derivative or N-oxide thereof. In particular, the invention provides such a ~ethod wherein the psychotic disorder is schizophrenia.

According to a yet further aspect, the present invention provides a compound of formula (I) or a physiA1~girs11y acceptable salt or solvate thereof or a physiologically f -n~ti nnAl deriative or N-oxide thereof for use in therapy, in particular the therapy or prophylaxis of a psychotic disorder such as schizophrenia. The invention also provides the use of a compound of formula (I) or a physiologically .e ~10 salt or solvate thereof for the r .- r.~ . e of a ~- r for the treatment or prophylaxis of a psychotic disorder such as 5rhi r A

hilst it may be possible for the compounds of the present invention to be administered as the raw chemical, it is preferable to present them as a 1' rDl - 1AtiAn. According to a further aspect, the present invention provides a ,' rDl f 1Ation comprising a compound of formula (I) or a physiologically acceptable salt or solvate thereof or a physiologically fnnrtirnAl d~lv~Li~- or N-oxide thereof together with one or more 1' -'~A11y acceptable carriers therefor and optionally one or more other L' r ingredients.
The carrier(s) must be 'acceptable' in the sense of being compatible with the other ingredients of the f~ lAtiAn and not deleterious to the recipient thereof.

The f: lAtiOnC include those suitable for oral, parenteral (including 5~h, " ., ~,., 1, intrPAorr~ Ar and ~ Le~ S), rectal and topical (including dermal, buccal and 5..hl 1 1 ) administration although the most suitable route may depend upon for example the condition and disorder of the recipient. The f~ 1At1~ne may conveniently be presented in unit dosage form and may be prepared by any of the methods well known in the art of pharmacy.
All methods include the step of bringing into ~csociAti~r a compound of the present irvention as herein defined or a pharmacologically ~ ptr~lP salt or solvate thereof (-active inereAi~nt') with the carrier which constitutes one or more accessory ingredients. In general the i 1 Ati ~n~ are prepared by uniformly and intimately bringing into ~e~o~iAti~n the active ingredient with liquid carriers or finely divided solid carriers or both and then, if necessary, shaping the product into the desired f 1 Ati An F~ 1 Ati A~e of the present invention suitable for oral administration may be presented as discrete units such as capsules, cachets or tablets each nine a ~L~ ' amount of the active ingredient; as a powder or granules; as a solution or a suspension in an aqueous liquid or a non--queous liquid; or as an oil-in-water liquid emulsion or a water-in-oil liquid emulsion. The active ingredient may also be presented as a bolus, electuary or paste.

A tablet may be made by compression or moulding, optionally with one or more accessory ingredients. C~ _d tablets may be prepared by - , ~ne in a suitable machine the active ingredient in a free-flowing form such as a powder or granules, optionally mixed with a binder, lubricant, inert diluent, lubricating, surface active or 'nC agent. Moulded tablets may be made by moulding in a suitable machine a mixture of the powdered compound moistened with an inert liquid diluent. The tablets may optionally be coated or scored and may be f 1rr~d so as to provide slow or controlled release of the active ingredient therein.

F~ 1Ati~nC for parenteral administration include aqueous and non-aqueous sterile injection solutions which may contain W O 93/16073 PCT/GB93/0028' anti-oxidants, buffers, bacteriostats and solutes which render the f 1At~on isotonic with the blood of the intended recipient, and aqueous and non-aqueous sterile , Ane which may include , ''ne agents and thlr~nln3 agents. The f lAt;An~ may be presented in unit-dose or multi-dose c~ntAinpre~ for example sealed ampoules and vials, and may be stored in a freeze-dried (lyophi1ieed) condition requiring only the addition of the sterile liquid carrier, for example, water-for-injection, i ~ Ar-1y prior to w e.
r , injection solutions and suspensions may be prepared from sterile powders, granules and tablets of the kind previously described.

F~ lAtiAnc for i ' 1 administration may be delivered by passive diffusion or by electrically assisted transport, for example, oiS (see, for example, Ph ~Al Research 3 (6), 318 (1986)) and typically take the form of an optionally buffered aqueous solution of a compound of formula (I) or a salt or acid derivative thereof. Suitable ' lAtiA-. comprise citrate or bis/tris buffer (pH6) or ethanol/water.
