AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0007] In consideration of the above, we studied intensively and, as a result, we found out that an ACAT inhibitor having a certain structure has an unexpectedly high lipid-rich plaque regressing effect, which is sufficiently effective even at a concentration which does not affect the blood cholesterol level, and thereby completed the present invention.

Problems solved by technology

However, an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor may cause a problem associated with side effects due to its inhibitory effect not only on cholesterol biosynthesis but also on a biologically essential component such as ubiquinone, dolichol and hem A.
Since a lipid-rich plaque is observed in a human whose blood cholesterol level is not high, the ACAT inhibition to reduce the intestinal absorption of cholesterol is not considered to be sufficient for regressing and removing the lipid-rich plaque.

Synthesis of 6,7-dichloro-2-oxo-4-phenyl-2H-chromene-3-carboxylic acid

[0510]

A mixture of (4,5-dichloro-2-hydroxyphenyl) (phenyl)methanone (1.5 g), diethyl malonate (1.28 ml) and DBU (0.25 ml) was stirred at 170° C. for 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was dissolved in ethyl acetate (50 ml), and washed with water followed by a 1 N solution of hydrochloric acid and a saturated aqueous solution of sodium chloride. After drying over magnesium sulfate, the solvent was distilled off under reduced presurre, and the residue was purified by a column chromatography (packing: silica gel, eluent: ethyl acetate-hexane=1:9). The resultant crude product of ethyl 6,7-dichloro-2-oxo-4-phenyl-2H-chromene-3-carboxylate was dissolved in acetic acid (10 ml) and concentrated hydrochloric acid (5 ml), and heated under reflux for 1 hour. The reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the resultant residue was dissolved in a solvent mixture of THF (10 ml) and ethyl acetate (50 ml), and...

Synthesis of (6,7-dichloro-2-oxo-4-phenyl-2H-chromen-3-yl)acetic acid

[0517]

[0518] A solution of 6,7-dichloro-2-oxo-4-phenyl-2H-chromene-3-carboxylic acid (0.8 g) in THF (10 ml) was combined with DMF (1 drop) and oxalyl chloride (0.31 ml), and stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. After the reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure, the resultant residue was dissolved in THF (10 ml), and to which a solution of diazomethane prepared from N-methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (1.68 g) and potassium hydroxide (3.0 g) in ether (30 ml) was added dropwise. After the effervescence had ceased, the reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure. The resultant residue was dissolved in methanol (50 ml), combined with silver oxide, and heated under reflux for 30 minutes. After the insolubles were filtered off, the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue was purified by a column chromatography (packing: silica gel, eluent: ethyl acetate-hexan...

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to a lipid-rich plaque regressing agent useful in preventing or treating acute coronary artery syndrome such as acute myocardial infarction, unstable angina and the like, peripheral artery occlusion and the like. BACKGROUND ART [0002] As an agent for reducing the level of blood cholesterol which causes arteriosclerosis, an agent which inhibits the absorption of bile acid by capturing it such as cholestyramine and cholestipol (U.S. Pat. No. 4,027,009), an agent which inhibits the absorption of cholesterol via an intestinal tract by inhibiting an acyl coenzyme A cholesterol acyl transferase (ACAT) such as melinamide (French Patent 1476569) and a cholesterol synthesis inhibitor, especially an agent which inhibits 3-hydroxy-3-methylgultaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase such as lovastatin (U.S. Pat. No. 4,231,938), simvastatin (U.S. Pat. No. 4,444,784) and pravastatin (U.S. Pat. No. 4,346,227) are employed in pharmaceuticals. [0003] ...
