AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

"The present invention relates to a therapeutic composition for combating ischemic damage and reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease. The composition includes a diarylmethylpiperazine compound that acts on peripheral delta opioid receptors to protect against ischemic injury. The compound can be administered during various stages of an ischemic event, including before, during, and after the event. The invention also includes a method of protecting isolated organs from ischemic injury and a combination of a delta opioid receptor agonist and another compound with anti-ischemic effects. The technical effects of the invention include reducing the size of damaged areas caused by ischemic events and improving cardiac function after an ischemic event."

Problems solved by technology

Ischemic preconditioning requires a physical reduction of the blood supply, which can be difficult or impractical for most patients.
It has been found that exercise has the effect of ischemic preconditioning lasting approximately 24 hours but many patients are not physically capable of reaching the level of cardiac output required to reap the benefits of ischemic preconditioning.
However, multiple potential problems can be associated with aortic cross clamping to effectuate reduced blood supply to the cardiac muscle, and thus it is desirable to have a treatment that potentiates ischemic preconditioning by pharmacological means.
However, these non-peptidic compounds are not without problems, especially because these compounds are considered analgesics and several of the compounds are known to cause seizures in the dosed subject due to the passage of these compounds over the blood brain barrier.

4-{(2R,5S)-4-[(R)-(4-Diethylcarbamoylphenyl)(3-hydroxyphenyl)methyl]-2,5-dimethyl-1-piperazinylmethyl} benzoic acid

[0065]

[0066]A solution of 3-bromophenol (400 g, 2.31 mol), tert-butylchlorodimethylsilane (391 g, 2.54 mol), and imidazole (346 g, 5.08 mol) in 5000 mL of dichloromethane was stirred overnight at room temperature. The reaction solution was poured into 2000 mL of water and the layers were separated. The organic layer was washed with 1N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (3×1500 mL) and water (2×1500 mL) before passing through a pad of silica gel (400 g, silica 60, 230-400 mesh). The silica gel was washed with dichloromethane (2×500 mL), the filtrates were combined and the solvent removed under reduced pressure to give 669 g (98.4%) of 3-bromophenoxy-tert-butyldimethylsilane as a clear pale yellow liquid. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz): δ 7.1 (m, 2H); 7.0 (br s, 1H); 6.75 (m, 1H); 1.0 (s, 9H); 0.2 (s, 6H).

[0075]

[0076]4-Carboxybenzaldehyde (100 g, 666 mmol) was weighed in a 2000 mL, 3-necked, round bottom flask and stirred under nitrogen in 1200 mL of toluene. Thionyl chloride (53.5 mL, 733 mmol) was added to the mixture, followed by the addition of 0.15 mL of dimethylformamide. A reflux condenser fitted with a calcium chloride drying tube was placed on the flask. The reaction was placed in an oil bath and heated at a bath temperature maintained below 120° C. The mixture was allowed to reflux for 1 hour after a clear solution was obtained and then cooled to room temperature. The solution was diluted with anhydrous toluene, and all volatiles were removed under vacuum.

[0077]The crude acid chloride was dissolved in 1500 mL of dry tetrahydrofuran and cooled in an ice / water bath. Diethylamine (173 mL, 1.67 mol, 2.5 equivalents) was added dropwise via an addition funnel. The clo...

The reaction solution was concentrated to dryness, the residue was dissolved in 40 mL of ethyl acetate and washed with 2% aqueous NaHCO3 solution (3×40 mL) and water (40 mL). The organic layer was dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated to give 4-{(R)-(2S,5R)-4-allyl-2,5-dimethyl-piperazin-1-yl)[3-hydroxyphenyl]methyl}-N,N-diethylbenzamide (10.30 g) as a yellow amorphous solid.

Abstract

The present invention relates to compositions and methods of treatment for cardioprotection through the use of non-peptidic delta opioid receptor agonist compound(s) that mediate cardioprotective effects of ischemic preconditioning. The compounds are used to reduce injury associated with ischemia and reperfusion of cardiac tissue. Further, the compounds may be used in solutions preserving the viability of an isolated organ.
