Benefits of technology

[0035]The invention also relates to the use of any of the compounds described herein in the preparation of a medicament for treating: (a) hot flashes, (b) vaginal dryness, (c) osteopenia, (d) osteoporosis, (e) hyperlipidemia, (f) loss of cognitive function, (g) a degenerative brain disorder, (h) cardiovascular disease, (i) cerebrovascular disease (j) breast cancer, (k) endometrial cancer, (l) cervical cancer, (m) prostate cancer, (n) benign prostatic hyperplasia, (O) endometriosis, (p) uterine fibroids, (q) osteoarthritis and for (r) contraception in a subject in need thereof.

Problems solved by technology

If left untreated, the problems can become permanent.
Heart attack and stroke are major causes of morbility and mortality among senior women.
Thus the decrease in serum estrogen levels in postmenopausal women results in adverse cardiovascular effect.
Estrogen deficiency results in a loss of bone structure and a decrease of bone strength.
Rapid loss of bone mass during the year immediately following menopause leads to postmenopausal osteoporosis and increased risk of fracture.
Estrogen deficiency is also one of the causes for the degenerative changes in the central nervous system and may lead to Alzheimer's disease and decline of cognition.
However, there are numerous undesirable effects associated with ERT that reduce patient compliance.
Venous thromboembolism, gallbladder disease, resumption of menses, mastodynia and a possible increased risk of developing uterine and / or breast cancer are the risks associated with ERT.
However, raloxifene has been reported to exacerbate symptoms associated with menopause such as hot flushes and vaginal dryness, and does not improve cognitive function in senior patients.
Patients taking raloxifene have reported higher rates of hot flashes compared with either placebo or ERT users and more leg cramps than placebo users, although women who took ERT had a higher incidence of vaginal bleeding and breast discomfort than raloxifene or placebo users.

example 1

8-Hydroxy-1,4-dithia-spiro[4.5]dec-7-ene-7-carboxylic acid methyl ester

[0135]

[0136]To 1,4-dithia-spiro[4.5]decan-8-one (2.35 g, 12.5 mmol, 1.0 eq), in THF (10 mL) at 0° C. under nitrogen was added NaH (60%, 2.0 g, 50 mmol, 4.0 eq) slowly. After gas releasing was completed, dimethy carbonate (11.3 g, 125 mmol, 10.0 eq) was added via syringe. The reaction mixture was warmed to room temperature and further heated at 50° C. for 2 hours. The reaction was then cooled down to room temperature and quenched with saturated ammonia chloride solution. The solvent was removed in vacuo and the residue was partitioned between ethyl ether and water. The aqueous layer was extracted with ethyl ether twice. The combined organic layer was washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to give a colorless oil. The crude material was then purified by column chromatography using 5:1 hexanes:ethyl acetate to give the title compound as a colorless solid.

2-Hydroxy-11,14-dithia-spiro[4,5]-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-benzo[c]chromen-9-one

[0141]

[0142]To 8-hydroxy-1,4-dithia-spiro[4.5]dec-7-ene-7-carboxylic acid methyl ester (1.88 g, 7.64 mmol, 1.0 eq) prepared from Example 1 and resorcinol (841 mg, 7.64 mmol, 1.0 eq) in CH2Cl2 (10 mL) under nitrogen at 0° C. was added methyl sulfonic acid (˜5 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 30 min and then warmed to room temperature. Water and CH2Cl2 were added and the mixture was partitioned between water and CH2Cl2. The aqueous layer was extracted twice with CH2Cl2. The combined organic layer was then washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated to give a brown oil. The crude material was then purified by column chromatography using 4:1 CH2Cl2:MeOH to give the title compound as a yellow semi solid.

Abstract

The present invention is directed to novel spiro-benzo[C]chromene derivatives, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use in the treatment of disorders mediated by one or more estrogen receptors. The compounds of the invention are useful in the treatment of disorders associated with the depletion of estrogen such as hot flashes, vaginal dryness, osteopenia and osteoporosis; hormone sensitive cancers and hyperplasia of the breast, endometrium, cervix and prostate; endometriosis, uterine fibroids, osteoarthritis and as contraceptive agents, alone or in combination with a progestogen or progestogen antagonist.
