substances which can be used for the prevention and/or treatment of
diseases characterised by excessive or abnormal cell
proliferation.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0004] Surprisingly, it has been found that compounds of general
formula (1), wherein the groups R.sup.2 to R.sup.4, L, Q and n have
the meanings given hereinafter, act as inhibitors of specific
signal enzymes which are involved in controlling the proliferation
of cells. Thus, the compounds according to the invention may be
used for example for the treatment of diseases associated with the
activity of these signal enzymes and characterised by excessive or
abnormal cell proliferation.

DEFINITIONS
[0037] As used herein, the following definitions apply, unless
stated otherwise:
[0038] The use of the prefix C.sub.x-y, wherein x and y each
represent a natural number (x<y), indicates that the chain or
ring structure or combination of chain and ring structure thus
designated and mentioned in direct connection may consist of a
total of not more than y and not less than x carbon atoms.
[0039] Alkyl is made up of the sub-groups saturated hydrocarbon
chains and unsaturated hydrocarbon chains, while the latter may be
further subdivided into hydrocarbon chains with a double bond
(alkenyl) and hydrocarbon chains with a triple bond (alkynyl).
Alkenyl contains at least one double bond, alkynyl at least one
triple bond. If a hydrocarbon chain should have both at least one
double bond and at least one triple bond, by definition it belongs
to the alkynyl sub-group. All the above-mentioned sub-groups may be
further subdivided into straight-chain (unbranched) and branched.
If an alkyl is substituted, it may be mono- or polysubstituted
independently of one another at all the hydrogen-carrying carbon
atoms.
[0040] Examples of individual sub-groups are listed below.
Straight-Chain (Unbranched) or Branched, Saturated Hydrocarbon

penta-1,4-dienyl; penta-1,3-dienyl; buta-1,3-dienyl;
2,3-dimethylbuta-1,3-diene etc.
Straight-Chain (Unbranched) or Branched Alkynyl:
[0043] ethynyl; prop-1-ynyl; prop-2-ynyl; but-1-ynyl; but-2-ynyl;
but-3-ynyl; 1-methyl-prop-2-ynyl etc.
[0044] By the terms propyl, butyl, pentyl, hexyl, heptyl, octyl,
nonyl, decyl etc. unless otherwise stated are meant saturated
hydrocarbon groups with the corresponding number of carbon atoms,
including all the isomeric forms.
[0045] By the terms propenyl, butenyl, pentenyl, hexenyl, heptenyl,
octenyl, nonenyl, decenyl etc. unless otherwise stated are meant
unsaturated hydrocarbon groups with the corresponding number of
carbon atoms and a double bond, including all the isomeric forms,
also (Z)/(E)-isomers, where applicable.
[0046] By the terms butadienyl, pentadienyl, hexadienyl,
heptadienyl, octadienyl, nonadienyl, decadienyl etc. unless
otherwise stated are meant unsaturated hydrocarbon groups with the
corresponding number of carbon atoms and two double bonds,
including all the isomeric forms, also (Z)/(E)-isomers, where
applicable.
[0047] By the terms propynyl, butynyl, pentynyl, hexynyl, heptynyl,
octynyl, nonynyl, decynyl etc. unless otherwise stated are meant
unsaturated hydrocarbon groups with the corresponding number of
carbon atoms and a triple bond, including all the isomeric
forms.
[0048] By the term heteroalkyl are meant groups which are derived
from the alkyl as hereinbefore defined in its widest sense by
replacing, in the hydrocarbon chains, one or more of the groups
--CH.sub.3 independently of one another by the groups --OH, --SH or
--NH.sub.2, one or more of the groups --CH.sub.2-- independently of
one another by the groups --O--, --S-- or --NH--, one or more of
the groups
##STR00007##
by the group
##STR00008##
one or more of the groups .dbd.CH-- by the group .dbd.N--, one or
more of the groups .dbd.CH.sub.2 by the group .dbd.NH or one or
more of the groups .ident.CH by the group .ident.N, while a total
of not more than three heteroatoms may be present in one
heteroalkyl, there must be at least one carbon atom between two
oxygen atoms and between two sulphur atoms or between one oxygen
and one sulphur atom and the group as a whole must have chemical
stability.
[0049] A direct result of the indirect definition/derivation from
alkyl is that heteroalkyl is made up of the sub-groups saturated
hydrocarbon chains with heteroatom(s), heteroalkenyl and
heteroalkynyl, and it may be further subdivided into straight-chain
(unbranched) and branched. If a heteroalkyl is substituted, it may
be mono- or polysubstituted independently of one another at all the
hydrogen-carrying oxygen, sulphur, nitrogen and/or carbon atoms.
Heteroalkyl itself as a substituent may be attached to the molecule
both through a carbon atom and through a heteroatom.

[0052] Haloalkyl is derived from alkyl as hereinbefore defined in
its broadest sense, by replacing one or more hydrogen atoms of the
hydrocarbon chain independently of one another by halogen atoms,
which may be identical or different. A direct result of the
indirect definition/derivation from alkyl is that haloalkyl is made
up of the sub-groups saturated hydrohalogen chains, haloalkenyl and
haloalkynyl, and it may be further subdivided into straight-chain
(unbranched) and branched. If a haloalkyl is substituted, it may be
mono- or polysubstituted independently of one another at all the
hydrogen-carrying carbon atoms.
[0053] The following are listed by way of example:
--CF.sub.3; --CHF.sub.2; --CH.sub.2F; --CF.sub.2CF.sub.3;
--CHFCF.sub.3; --CH.sub.2CF.sub.3; --CF.sub.2CH.sub.3;

--CHFCH.sub.2CH.sub.3; --CHFCH.sub.2CF.sub.3 etc.
[0054] Halogen relates to fluorine, chlorine, bromine and/or iodine
atoms.
[0055] Cycloalkyl is made up of the sub-groups monocyclic
hydrocarbon rings, bicyclic hydrocarbon rings and spirohydrocarbon
rings, while each sub-group may be further subdivided into
saturated and unsaturated (cycloalkenyl). By unsaturated is meant
that there is at least one double bond in the ring system, but no
aromatic system is formed. In bicyclic hydrocarbon rings two rings
are linked such that they share at least two carbon atoms. In
spirohydrocarbon rings one carbon atom (spiroatom) is shared by two
rings. If a cycloalkyl is substituted, it may be mono- or
polysubstituted independently of one another at all the
hydrogen-carrying carbon atoms. Cycloalkyl itself as a substituent
may be attached to the molecule through any suitable position of
the ring system.
[0056] The following individual sub-groups are listed by way of
example:

cycloalkyl groups defined hereinbefore, in each case in their
broadest sense. The alkyl group as substituent is directly linked
to the molecule and is in turn substituted by a cycloalkyl group.
The linking of alkyl and cycloalkyl in both groups may be effected
by means of any suitable carbon atoms. The sub-groups of alkyl and
cycloalkyl are also included in the combination of the two
groups.
[0062] Aryl denotes mono-, bi- or tricyclic carbon rings with at
least one aromatic ring. If an aryl is substituted, the
substitution may be mono- or polysubstitution in each case, at all
the hydrogen-carrying carbon atoms, independently of one another.

suitable position of the ring system. Typical examples are listed
below.
[0063] phenyl; naphthyl; indanyl (2,3-dihydroindenyl);
1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthyl; fluorenyl etc.
[0064] Arylalkyl denotes the combination of the groups alkyl and
aryl as hereinbefore defined, in each case in their broadest sense.
The alkyl group as substituent is directly linked to the molecule
and is in turn substituted by an aryl group. The alkyl and aryl may
be linked in both groups via any carbon atoms suitable for this
purpose. The respective sub-groups of alkyl and aryl are also
included in the combination of the two groups.
[0065] Typical examples are listed below:
[0066] benzyl; 1-phenylethyl; 2-phenylethyl; phenylvinyl;
phenylallyl etc.
[0067] Heteroaryl denotes monocyclic aromatic rings or polycyclic
rings with at least one aromatic ring, which, compared with
corresponding aryl or cycloalkyl, contain instead of one or more
carbon atoms one or more identical or different heteroatoms,
selected independently of one another from among nitrogen, sulphur
and oxygen, while the resulting group must be chemically stable. If
a heteroaryl is substituted, the substitution may be mono- or
polysubstitution in each case, at all the hydrogen-carrying carbon
and/or nitrogen atoms, independently of one another. Heteroaryl
itself as substituent may be linked to the molecule via any
suitable position of the ring system, both carbon and nitrogen.
Typical examples are listed below.

benzothiazolyl-N-oxide; benzimidazolyl-N-oxide;
benzo-thiopyranyl-5-oxide and benzothiopyranyl-S,S-dioxide etc.
[0070] Heteroarylalkyl denotes the combination of the alkyl and
heteroaryl groups defined hereinbefore, in each case in their
broadest sense. The alkyl group as substituent is directly linked
to the molecule and is in turn substituted by a heteroaryl group.
The linking of the alkyl and heteroaryl may be achieved on the
alkyl side via any carbon atoms suitable for this purpose and on
the heteroaryl side by any carbon or nitrogen atoms suitable for
this purpose. The respective sub-groups of alkyl and heteroaryl are
also included in the combination of the two groups.
[0071] By the term heterocycloalkyl are meant groups which are
derived from the cycloalkyl as hereinbefore defined if in the
hydrocarbon rings one or more of the groups --CH.sub.2-- are
re-placed independently of one another by the groups --O--, --S--
or --NH-- or one or more of the groups .dbd.CH-- are replaced by
the group .dbd.N--, while not more than five heteroatoms may be
present in total, there must be at least one carbon atom between
two oxygen atoms and between two sulphur atoms or between one
oxygen and one sulphur atom and the group as a whole must be
chemically stable. Heteroatoms may simultaneously be present in all
the possible oxidation stages (sulphur.fwdarw.sulphoxide --SO--,
sulphone --SO.sub.2--; nitrogen.fwdarw.N-oxide). It is immediately
apparent from the indirect definition/derivation from cycloalkyl
that heterocycloalkyl is made up of the sub-groups monocyclic
hetero-rings, bicyclic hetero-rings and spirohetero-rings, while
each sub-group can also be further subdivided into saturated and
unsaturated (heterocycloalkenyl). The term unsaturated means that
in the ring system in question there is at least one double bond,
but no aromatic system is formed. In bicyclic hetero-rings two
rings are linked such that they have at least two atoms in common.
In spirohetero-rings one carbon atom (spiroatom) is shared by two
rings. If a heterocycloalkyl is substituted, the substitution may
be mono- or polysubstitution in each case, at all the
hydrogen-carrying carbon and/or nitrogen atoms, independently of
one another. Heterocycloalkyl itself as substituent may be linked
to the molecule via any suitable position of the ring system.
[0072] Typical examples of individual sub-groups are listed
below.
Monocyclic Heterorings (Saturated and Unsaturated):
[0073] tetrahydrofuryl; pyrrolidinyl; pyrrolinyl; imidazolidinyl;
thiazolidinyl; imidazolinyl; pyrazolidinyl; pyrazolinyl;
piperidinyl; piperazinyl; oxiranyl; aziridinyl; azetidinyl;

2-oxa-5-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptyl; 8-oxa-3-aza-bicyclo[3.2.1]octyl;

3,9-diaza-bicyclo[4.2.1]nonyl; 2,6-diaza-bicyclo[3.2.2]nonyl
etc.

[0075] 1,4-dioxa-spiro[4.5]decyl; 1-oxa-3,8-diaza-spiro[4.5]decyl;
and 2,6-diaza-spiro[3.3]heptyl; 2,7-diaza-spiro[4.4]nonyl;
2,6-diaza-spiro[3.4]octyl; 3,9-diaza-spiro[5.5]undecyl;
2,8-diaza-spiro[4.5]decyl etc.
[0076] Heterocycloalkylalkyl denotes the combination of the alkyl
and heterocycloalkyl groups defined hereinbefore, in each case in
their broadest sense. The alkyl group as substituent is directly
linked to the molecule and is in turn substituted by a
heterocycloalkyl group. The linking of the alkyl and
heterocycloalkyl may be achieved on the alkyl side via any carbon
atoms suitable for this purpose and on the heterocycloalkyl side by
any carbon or nitrogen atoms suitable for this purpose. The
respective sub-groups of alkyl and heterocycloalkyl are also
included in the combination of the two groups.
[0077] The term "substituted" indicates that a hydrogen atom which
is bound directly to the atom in question is replaced by another
atom or another group of atoms. Bivalent substituents such as for
example .dbd.O, .dbd.S, .dbd.NR, .dbd.NOR, .dbd.NNRR,
.dbd.NN(R)C(O)NRR, .dbd.N.sub.2 or the like can only be
substituents at carbon atoms. They require exchanging for two
geminal hydrogen atoms, i.e. hydrogen atoms which are bound to the
same carbon atom saturated before the substitution. Substitution by
a bivalent substituent is therefore only possible at the groups
--CH.sub.3 and --CH.sub.2--, not at the groups
##STR00009##
and not at aromatic carbon atoms.
[0078] Additionally, by the term "suitable substituent/suitable
group" is meant a substituent which on the one hand is suitable on
account of its valency and on the other hand leads to a system with
chemical stability.

[0089] The compounds according to the invention may be prepared by
the methods of synthesis described below, with the substituents of
the general formulae having the meanings stated hereinbefore. These
methods are intended to illustrate the invention without
restricting it to their content or limiting the scope of the
compounds claimed to these Examples. Where the preparation of the
starting compounds is not described, they are commercially
obtainable or may be prepared analogously to known compounds or
methods described herein. Substances described in the literature
are prepared according to the published methods of synthesis.
##STR00010##
[0090] The compounds A-1 are accessed by methods known from the
literature, by diazotising 3-aminobenzoic acids in hydrochloric
NaNO.sub.2 solution and reacting them with sodium azide to form the
aromatic azides.
##STR00011##
[0091] The Examples of type I are synthesised from the compounds
A-1 by a cycloaddition (in order to insert the group R.sup.1) and
an amide coupling reaction (in order to insert the group R.sup.2),
and these two partial steps may be carried out in any desired
order. The amide coupling is carried out using methods known from
the literature with the aid of common coupling reagents, such as
HATU or TBTU, or the compounds A-1 or B-1 are activated by means of
thionyl chloride, oxalyl chloride or Ghosez reagent using methods
known from the literature to form the corresponding acid chloride
and then reacted with an amine R.sup.2--NH.sub.2. The amines used
are commercially obtainable or are synthesised using methods known
from the literature. The cycloaddition with the compounds A-1 and
B-2 respectively is also carried out using methods known from the
literature using a corresponding alkyne, CuSO.sub.4 and sodium
ascorbate.
[0092] The alkynes used to introduce the groups R.sup.1 are either
commercially obtainable or are prepared from commercially
obtainable aldehydes or aldehydes synthesised using methods known
from the literature, e.g. by means of the Bestmann-Ohira
reagent.
[0093] The compounds of type I which can be prepared directly by
these reaction methods are then varied still further in R.sup.1 in
a method known from or analogous to the literature.
##STR00012##
[0094] The compounds C-2 may be accessed in a number of ways. Using
methods known from the literature compounds of type C-1 are coupled
with TMS-acetylene in a Sonogashira reaction. The cleaving of the
silyl group may also be carried out using methods known from the
literature (e.g. with K.sub.2CO.sub.3 or TBAF). Any ester cleaving
is also carried out using methods known from the literature. The
compounds C-1--if they are not commercially obtainable--are in turn
obtained by known methods by diazotisation and subsequent reaction
with potassium iodide from the corresponding anilines.
##STR00013##
[0095] The Examples of type II are synthesised from the compounds
C-2 by an amide coupling reaction (in order to introduce the group
R.sup.2) and a cycloaddition with an azide (in order to introduce
the group R.sup.1), while the two partial steps may be carried out
in any order. The amide coupling is carried out using methods known
from the literature with the aid of common coupling reagents, such
as HATU or TBTU, or the compounds C-2 and D-2 respectively are
activated by means of thionyl chloride, oxalyl chloride or Ghosez
reagent using methods known from the literature to form the
corresponding acid chloride and then reacted with an amine
R.sup.2--NH.sub.2. The amines used are commercially obtainable or
are synthesised using methods known from the literature. The
cycloaddition with the compounds C-2 or D-1 is also carried out
using methods known from the literature with the aid of CuSO.sub.4
and sodium ascorbate.
[0096] Aryl or heteroaryl azides for introducing the groups R.sup.1
are obtained by known methods from the corresponding amine by
diazotisation and reaction with sodium azide. Arylalkyl-azides,
heteroarylalkyl-azides as well as most other azides are obtained by
nucleophilic substitution of the corresponding halides, for example
the bromide, with sodium azide.
##STR00014## ##STR00015##
[0097] Examples of type III are synthesised via the intermediates
E-2, which can be obtained starting from C-1 by reaction with CuCN
with subsequent amide coupling in order to introduce the group
R.sup.2. Reaction of E-2 using methods known from the literature
first of all with hydroxylamine to E-3 and then with activated
carboxylic acids yields examples of type III.
[0098] Compounds of type IV are also obtainable starting from C-1
via the carboxylic acid intermediates E-5, which are cyclised with
hydroxyamidines E-6 using methods known from the literature.
##STR00016##
[0099] Compounds of type V and VI are synthesised via the boric
acid esters F-1, which are prepared from the intermediates E-4 by
methods known from the literature. Compounds of type V and VI are
obtained by two successive Suzuki coupling reactions with
commercially obtainable dibromothiazoles, F-1 and
R.sup.1--B(OH).sub.2 using methods known from the literature.
##STR00017##
[0100] Compounds of type VII, which are prepared according to
general scheme G1, have an inverted amide bond compared with those
of type I (reaction scheme B). The synthesis starts from
meta-nitroanilines which are obtainable commercially or using
methods known from the literature. First of all, the carboxylic
acid R.sup.2--COOH after activation of the acid function is coupled
to the aniline derivative e.g. by means of coupling reagents such
as TBTU or HATU or after reaction to obtain the acid chloride, e.g.
by means of oxalyl chloride, thionyl chloride or Ghosez reagent.
Then the aromatic nitro group is reduced to the amine G-1 in a
manner known from the literature, e.g. with iron. The amines G-1
are converted in known manner into the corresponding azides G-2,
which react e.g. by means of alkynes that are commercially
obtainable or that can be prepared as described in the literature
in a cycloaddition to form compounds of the general type VII.
##STR00018##
[0101] Reaction scheme G2 shows an alternative method of obtaining
the compounds of type VII. Starting from the same nitroanilines,
the intermediate G-3 is obtained by introducing a suitable
protective group for the amino function (e.g. Cbz), subsequent
reduction of the nitro group and azide formation. As a result of
the subsequent cycloaddition R.sup.1 is introduced and the
intermediate product G-4 is obtained. The group R.sup.2 may
subsequently be introduced by cleaving the protective group and
reacting with heteroaryl-carboxylic acids that are commercially
obtainable or may be synthesised using methods known from the
literature, by known amide coupling methods, such as e.g. HATU or
acid chloride activation.
##STR00019##
[0102] Type VIII compounds also have an inverted amide bond
(analogously to type VII) and are synthesised starting from H-1
either via the intermediates H-2 or H-3 by the use of Sonogashira
coupling reactions, amide couplings and cycloadditions in a
suitable order, similarly to the manner described for compounds of
type II in reaction scheme C and D.
[0103] The method of obtaining the inverted amide bond presented in
reaction scheme G1, G2 (type VII) and H (type VIII) (based on type
I and type II, respectively) can also be applied to the inverting

transformations.
SYNTHESIS OF EXAMPLES I-1 TO I-68
Method of Synthesising A-1a
##STR00020##
[0105] 3-amino-4-methylbenzoic acid (10 g, 65.5 mmol) is dissolved
in 2N HCl (300 mL), cooled to 0.degree. C., combined with a
solution of sodium nitrite (5.42 g, 69 mmol) in 30 mL water and
stirred for 30 min. Then a solution of sodium azide (4.73 g, 72
mmol) in 30 mL water is added dropwise, after it has all been added
the mixture is stirred for a further 30 min and then heated to
ambient temperature.
[0106] The precipitate of A-1a formed is filtered off, washed
several times with water and then freeze-dried (HPLC-MS:
t.sub.Ret=1.61 min; MS (M+H).sup.+=178).
[0107] Other compounds A-1 are obtained analogously to this method
from the corresponding 3-aminobenzoic acid derivatives.
Method of Preparing the Bestmann-Ohira Reagent:
##STR00021##
[0109] Dimethyl-acetyl-methylphosphonate (14.123 g, 82 mmol) is
placed in toluene (80 mL), cooled to 0.degree. C. and sodium
hydride (3.28 g, 60%), 82 mmol) is added batchwise thereto over a
period of about 45 min. After the development of gas has ended,
4-acetamidobenzenesulphonic acid azide (20.31 g, 82 mmol) dissolved
in THF (30 mL) is added dropwise at 0.degree. C. and then the
mixture is stirred overnight at RT.
[0110] For working up the mixture is diluted with diethyl ether
(200 mL), filtered through Celite, washed repeatedly with diethyl
ether and the filtrate is evaporated down under reduced
pressure.
[0111] The crude Bestmann-Ohira reagent (B-O) is used in this form
without further purification for the alkyne formation in the
reactions that follow.
Method of Synthesising B-1a:
##STR00022##
[0113] 1,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (2.803 g, 22.58
mmol) and the Bestmann-Ohira reagent (B-O, 5.964 g, 31.05 mmol) are
placed in methanol (75 mL) and combined with potassium carbonate
(6.241 g, 45.16 mmol). After 3 d stirring at RT the azide A-1a (2.5
g, 14.11 mmol) is added and the mixture is stirred. Then sodium
ascorbate (3.075 g, 15.52 mmol) dissolved in 12.5 mL water and 28.2
mL of a 0.1M CuSO.sub.4 soln. (2.82 mmol) are added and the mixture
is stirred for 3 d at RT.
[0114] For working up the mixture is evaporated down under reduced
pressure, mixed with water and adjusted to an acid pH (pH less than
5) by the addition of 1N hydrochloric acid solution. The
precipitate formed is filtered off, washed with a little
acetonitrile and dried in the vacuum dryer. B-1a may be further
used directly or purified by RP-HPLC separation (HPLC-MS:
t.sub.Ret=1.59 min; MS (M+H).sup.+=298).
[0115] Other compounds B-1 are obtained analogously to this method
from the corresponding A-1 intermediates.
Method of Synthesising Example I-1:
##STR00023##
[0117] The carboxylic acid B-1a (0.9 g, 3.03 mmol) is dissolved in
1.814 mL thionyl chloride (25 mmol) and stirred for 8 h at
65.degree. C. For working up the excess thionyl chloride is
eliminated under reduced pressure, the residue is taken up in DCM
(30 mL) and reacted directly with the corresponding amine.
[0118] For this, 2-amino-4-(trifluoromethyl)pyridine (0.42 g, 2.5
mmol) is placed in DCM (10 mL) and diisopropylethylamine (0.562 mL,
3.36 mmol), combined with the above freshly prepared acid chloride
(in DCM) and stirred overnight at RT.
[0119] For working up the mixture is evaporated down under reduced
pressure and the residue remaining is taken up in DMF.
Chromatographic purification by RP-HPLC yields the compound
I-1.
[0120] Analogously to the general methods described above, Examples
I-2 to I-59 are synthesised from the corresponding components.
Method of Synthesising B-2a:
##STR00024##
[0122] The azide A-1a (1 g, 5.655 mmol) is dissolved in 3.38 mL
thionyl chloride (46.62 mmol) and stirred overnight at RT. The
excess thionyl chloride is removed under reduced pressure and the
solid remaining is taken up in DCM (20 mL), combined with 1.05 mL
Hunig base (6.27 mmol) and then 3-amino-5-tert.-butyl-isoxazole
(714.6 mg, 5.098 mmol) dissolved in DCM (10 mL) is added dropwise
at RT and stirred for 30 min. For working up the solvent is
eliminated under reduced pressure and the residue remaining is
taken up in a little DMF. By filtration and chromatographic
purification by means of RP-HPLC (gradient: 15-98% acetonitrile),
B-2a is obtained (HPLC-MS: t.sub.Ret=2.36 min; MS (M+H).sup.+=300).
Other compounds B-2 are obtained analogously to this method from
the corresponding A-1 intermediates.
Method of Synthesising Example I-60 and I-61:
a) Method of Synthesising B-3a:
##STR00025##
[0124]
tert.-Butyl-4-(aminocarbothioyl)-tetrahydropyridine-1-(2H)-carboxyl-
ate (3.03 g, 12.4 mmol) is placed in THF (30 mL) with Hunig base
(2.1 mL, 12.3 mmol) and bromine malonaldehyde (1.853 g, 12.3 mmol)
is added at RT. After 3 d stirring at RT the solvent is eliminated
under reduced pressure, the residue remaining is taken up in DCM
and washed with aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and
water. The organic phase is dried on magnesium sulphate, filtered
and the filtrate is evaporated down under reduced pressure. The
crude product is then purified by chromatography using silica gel
(cyclohexane/EE from 60:40 to 50:50). B-3a is obtained (HPLC-MS:
t.sub.Ret=1.91 min; MS (M+H-tBu).sup.+=240).
[0125] All the other aldehydes B-3 needed to synthesise Examples
1-60 to 1-68 and other comparable aldehydes are obtained
analogously to this method.
b) Method of Synthesising the Boc-Protected Precursor of Examples
I-60 to I-68 (V I 60 to V-I-68, Taking as Example V-I-60 and
V-I-61, Respectively):
##STR00026##
[0127] Aldehyde B-3a (437.6 mg, 1.476 mmol) and the Bestmann-Ohira
reagent (B-O, 415.3 mg, 2.162 mmol) are dissolved in MeOH (15 mL),
combined with potassium carbonate (323 mg, 2.337 mmol) and stirred
overnight at RT. Then the azide B-2a (217 mg, 0.725 mmol) is added,
followed by sodium ascorbate (158.5 mg, 0.8 mmol) dissolved in
water (1 mL) and 1.5 mL of a 0.1N CuSO.sub.4 solution (0.15 mmol).
After 5 d at RT the mixture is evaporated down under reduced
pressure, combined with semiconcentrated NaHCO.sub.3 solution and
extracted several times with EE. The combined organic phases are
dried on magnesium sulphate, filtered, evaporated down under
reduced pressure and the crude product is further used directly in
this form. V-I-60 and V-I-61 are obtained (HPLC-MS: t.sub.Ret=2.18
min; MS (M+H).sup.+=292).
[0128] Analogously to this method, all the other aldehydes B-3,
needed for synthesising Examples I-60 to I-68, or other additional
aldehydes comparable therewith, are reacted with the corresponding
components B-2 and the compounds V-I-62 to V-I-68 or corresponding
other compounds are obtained.
[0129] c) General Method of Synthesising Examples I-60 to I-68 by
Cleaving the Boc-Protective Group and Optionally Additionally
Carrying Out Reductive Amination (Based on the Example Of the
Synthesis of I-60 or I-61):
##STR00027##
[0130] V-I-60 or V-I-61 (429 mg, 0.725 mmol) is dissolved in DCM
(50 mL) and at RT combined with trifluoroacetic acid (3.8 mL).
After 45 min stirring at RT water is added, the mixture is made
slightly basic by the addition of NaOH solution and the organic
phase is separated off. The aqueous phase is extracted twice more
with DCM, the combined organic phases are dried on magnesium
sulphate and filtered and the filtrate is evaporated down under
reduced pressure. The residue remaining is taken up in acetonitrile
and water, frozen and finally freeze-dried.
[0131] The compound I-60 thus obtained (75.3 mg, 0.153 mmol) is
dissolved in DMF (1 mL), combined with isobutylaldehyde at RT (16
.mu.L, 0.176 mmol) and stirred for 15 min. Acetic acid (9.636
.mu.L, 0.168 mmol) and sodium triacetoxyborohydride (32.8 mg, 0.155
mmol) are added to this reaction solution and the mixture is
stirred for 3 d at RT.
[0132] For working up the mixture is evaporated down under reduced
pressure, the residue is taken up in a little DMF, chromatographed
through a preparative RP-HPLC-MS apparatus (gradient: 10-98%
acetonitrile) and the purified compound I-61 is obtained.
Analogously to the general methods a)-c) described above, Examples
I-62 to I-68 or comparable additional examples may be obtained from
the corresponding precursors, which are either commercially
obtainable or may be prepared using methods known from the
literature.

Method of Synthesising C-2a
##STR00165##
[0134] Methyl 3-amino-4-methylbenzoate (1.652 g, 10 mmol) is
dissolved in 35% sulphuric acid (18 mL) and acetic acid (6 mL) and
cooled to 0.degree. C. Then a solution of sodium nitrite (0.76 g,
11 mmol) in 3 mL water is added dropwise, the mixture is stirred
for 1 h at 0.degree. C. and for 1 h at RT, then a solution of
potassium iodide (2.0 g, 12 mmol) in 4 mL water is added and the
mixture is stirred for 2 h. For working up the reaction mixture is
combined with DCM, extracted twice, the combined organic phases are
dried on sodium sulphate, filtered and evaporated down under
reduced pressure. Chromatographic purification of the residue
obtained through silica gel (5% EE in cyclohexane) yields C-1a
(HPLC-MS: t.sub.Ret=3.89 min; MS (M+H).sup.+=277).
[0135] C-1a (0.2 g, 0.724 mmol) is placed with
bis-triphenylphosphine-palladium dichloride (25.424 mg, 0.036 mmol)
and copper(I)iodide under protective gas in abs. THF (3 mL) and
triethylamine (1 mL). Then trimethylsilyl-ethyne is added at RT and
the mixture is stirred overnight. For working up it is diluted with
EE, poured onto 0.5M ammonia solution and the aqueous phase is
again extracted with EE. The combined organic phases are washed
with 0.5M hydrochloric acid and saturated sodium chloride solution,
again extracted with EE, dried on sodium sulphate, filtered and
evaporated down under reduced pressure.
[0136] The residue is combined with methanolic KOH (1 mL) and
stirred for 2 h at RT. The reaction mixture is diluted with EE,
poured onto 5% NaHCO.sub.3 solution and extracted twice with EE.
The combined organic phases are washed with saturated sodium
chloride solution, dried on sodium sulphate, filtered and
evaporated down under reduced pressure. Chromatographic
purification through a short silica gel frit yields C-2a (HPLC-MS:
t.sub.Ret=3.65 min; MS (M+H).sup.+=175).
[0137] Other compounds C-2 are obtained analogously to this method
from the corresponding 3-aminobenzoic acid derivatives.
General Method of Synthesising the Intermediates D-1:

RT the amine (0.95 mmol) is added, DIPEA (2.50 mmol) is added
dropwise and the mixture is stirred for 24 h.
[0140] For working up the mixture is diluted with EE, made acidic
with 1M hydrochloric acid solution, the aqueous phase is repeatedly
extracted with EE, the combined organic phases are dried on
magnesium sulphate, filtered and evaporated down under reduced
pressure. The residue remaining is purified by RP-HPLC separation
and the corresponding compound D-1 is obtained.
[0141] Analogously to this method compounds D-1 are generally
obtained from the corresponding C-2 intermediates.
Method of Synthesising the Intermediates D-2a:
##STR00167##
[0143] 15 mL 1M sodium ascorbate solution and 20 mL 0.1M CuSO.sub.4
solution are successively added to the carboxylic acid C-2a (2.00
g, 12.5 mmol) and the azide (1.12 g, 9.32 mmol) dissolved in MeOH
(200 mL). The mixture is stirred for 8 d at RT. The precipitate of
C-2a formed is filtered off, washed with a little water and dried
in vacuo (HPLC-MS: t.sub.Ret=1.64 min; MS (M+H).sup.+=281).
[0144] Other compounds D-2 are obtained analogously to this method
from the corresponding C-2 intermediates.
General Method of Synthesising Compounds of Type II (Variant

##STR00168##
[0146] The alkyne D-1 (1.00 mmol) and the azide (1.10 mmol) are
dissolved in 10 mL acetonitrile/MeOH (1:1), combined with 1.2 mL
triethylamine and 2.2 mL 1M sodium ascorbate solution and after 1
minute 2.1 mL of 0.1M CuSO.sub.4 solution are added. The reaction
mixture is stirred overnight at RT, then once the reaction is
complete the mixture is diluted with some DMF and filtered.
Chromatographic purification by RP-HPLC yields compounds of type
II.
[0147] Additional compounds of type II are obtained from the
corresponding intermediates D-1 and the corresponding azides
analogously to this method.
General Method of Synthesising Compounds of Type II (Variant
2):
##STR00169##
[0149] The carboxylic acid D-2a (152 mg, 0.54 mmol) is dissolved in
thionyl chloride (2.0 mL) and heated for 6 h at 65.degree. C. Then
the mixture is evaporated down using the rotary evaporator, the
residue is taken up in DCM (10 mL) and cooled to 0.degree. C. A
solution of the amine (68.0 mg, 0.49 mmol) and Hunig-base (98
.mu.L, 0.60 mmol) in DCM (5 mL) are slowly added dropwise, then the
cooling is removed and the mixture is stirred for 20 h. The
reaction mixture is evaporated down using the rotary evaporator,
taken up in DMF and the purified compound II-1 is obtained by
RP-HPLC.

SYNTHESIS OF EXAMPLES IV-1 TO IV-10
General Method of Synthesising Intermediates E-4
##STR00216##
[0162] Benzoic acid C-1a (1.00 mmol) is dissolved in 10 mL
anhydrous DCM/THF (2:1) and combined dropwise with oxalyl chloride
(1.05 mmol). Then a few drops of DMF are added and the mixture is
stirred for 2 h at RT. The mixture is evaporated down completely
using the rotary evaporator, dissolved in 5 mL DCM and a solution
of the amine (0.95 mmol) and Hunig base in THF (2.80 mmol) is added
dropwise. Then the mixture is stirred for 3 h at RT. After aqueous
working up and recrystallisation from EtOH the compounds E-4 are
obtained.
[0163] Analogously to this method additional compounds E-4 are
obtained from the corresponding 3-iodobenzoic acids and the
corresponding amines R.sup.2--NH.sub.2.
General Method of Synthesising Intermediates E-5
##STR00217##
[0165] E-4 (1.00 mmol) is dissolved in anhydrous THF (20 mL) under
protective gas, cooled to -20.degree. C. and combined with iPrMgCl
solution (2.20 mL, 1.8 M). The mixture is stirred for 2 h at this
temperature. Then CO.sub.2 is passed through the reaction mixture.
After 1 h, NH.sub.4Cl solution is added and the mixture is
extracted twice with EE. The combined organic phases are extracted
three times with 2M NaOH solution and the combined aqueous phases
are then acidified with 6M HCl and extracted several times with EE.
Drying on Na.sub.2SO.sub.4 and evaporation using the rotary
evaporator yields compounds E-5.
[0166] Additional compounds E-5 are obtained from the corresponding
compounds E-4 analogously to this method.
General Method of Synthesising Compounds of Type IV
##STR00218##
[0168] a) 3-cyanopyridine (1.00 mmol), hydroxylamine hydrochloride
(2.20 mmol) and NEt.sub.3 (2.20 mmol) are refluxed in MeOH (2.5 mL)
for 2 h. Then the reaction mixture is evaporated down using the
rotary evaporator and worked up under aqueous conditions. The
hydroxylamidine E-6a is obtained (HPLC-MS: t.sub.Ret=0.00 min; MS
(M+H).sup.+=138).
[0169] Analogously to this method hydroxylamidines E-6 generally
are obtained from the corresponding nitriles.
[0170] b) E-5 (1.00 mmol) is dissolved in DMF (5 mL), combined with
Hunig base (5.00 mmol) and TBTU (1.00 mmol) and stirred for 15 min
at RT. Then E-6a (1.15 mmol) is added and the mixture is stirred
for 4 d at RT. After aqueous working up and evaporation using the
rotary evaporator the residue is taken up in DMF (5 mL) and stirred
for 4 h at 110.degree. C. After cooling, compounds of type IV by
way of example are obtained by chromatographic purification by
RP-HPLC.
[0171] Analogously to the methods described hereinbefore the
compounds of type IV in general are synthesised using the
corresponding amine R.sup.2--NH.sub.2 and the corresponding nitrile
R.sup.1--CN (cf. the Table that follows).

Synthesis of Compounds of Type VII
General Method of Synthesising the Intermediates G-1
##STR00253##
[0174] The carboxylic acid R.sup.2--COOH (1.00 mmol) is placed in
DCM (5 mL), combined with SOCl.sub.2 (3.00 mmol) and catalytic
amounts of DMF and stirred for 15 h at 120.degree. C. Then the
mixture is azeotropically evaporated down with toluene several
times using the rotary evaporator. The residue is taken up in 5 mL
DCM, combined with nitroaniline (1.00 mmol) and Hunig base (1.00
mmol) and stirred for 2 h at RT. The reaction mixture is then
diluted with DCM (10 mL) and extracted under aqueous conditions. By
drying on MgSO.sub.4 and evaporating the organic phase the amide is
obtained, which is reacted further without any further purification
steps.
[0175] The amide obtained (1.00 mmol) is taken up in MeOH (5 mL),
combined with NH.sub.4Cl soln. (0.5 mmol in 5 mL H.sub.2O) and
heated to 75.degree. C. Then iron powder (5.00 mmol) is added
batchwise and the mixture is stirred for 30 min at 75.degree. C.
After removal of the excess iron (using a magnet) and evaporation
of the reaction mixture using the rotary evaporator, the compounds
G-1 are precipitated out of the remaining aqueous phase. (N.B.: If
the compound does not precipitate, G-1 may also be obtained by
extraction or by chromatographic methods. Moreover, the nitro group
may also be reduced using other methods known from the literature,
such as for example catalytic hydrogenation with catalytic amounts
of Pd/C or reduction using methods known from the literature with
SnCl.sub.2 in hydrochloric acid.) Analogously to this method
3-nitroanilines in general are reacted to form compounds G-1.
General Method of Synthesising the Intermediates G-2
##STR00254##
[0177] Anilines G-1 (1.00 mmol) are dissolved in 10 mL 2M HCl and
10 mL THF and cooled to 0.degree. C. At this temperature NaNO.sub.2
soln. (1.20 mmol in 5 mL H.sub.2O) is added and the mixture is
stirred for 60 min. Then NaN.sub.3 soln. (1.10 mmol in 5 mL
H.sub.2O) is slowly added at 0.degree. C. The reaction mixture is
stirred for 30 min at 0.degree. C. and then for 1 h at RT. After
aqueous working up the compounds G-2 are obtained, which are
further reacted without any further purification steps.
[0178] Analogously to this method the compounds G-2 in general are
obtained from the compounds G-1.
General Method of Synthesising Compounds of Type VII
##STR00255##
[0180] 1,5-dimethylpyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (1.50 mmol) and
Bestmann-Ohira reagent (B-O, 2.40 mmol) are placed in methanol (7.5
mL) and combined with potassium carbonate (3.40 mmol). After 12 h
stirring at RT the corresponding azide G-2 (1.00 mmol) is added and
the mixture is stirred. 1.1 mL of a 1M sodium ascorbate soln. (1.10
mmol) and 2.0 mL of a 0.1M CuSO.sub.4 soln. (0.20 mmol) are added
and the mixture is stirred for 7 d at 40.degree. C.
[0181] For working up the mixture is evaporated down under reduced
pressure, mixed with water and by the addition of 2M HCl soln. an
acid pH is obtained. The mixture is then repeatedly extracted with
EE, the combined organic phases are dried on MgSO.sub.4, filtered
and evaporated down under reduced pressure. By chromatographic
purification by RP-HPLC the compounds VII-1 to VII-5 are obtained.
The compounds VII-6, VII-7 and VII-8 are obtained by an analogous
method from the corresponding commercially obtainable
3-pyridylethyne.
[0182] Analogously to the methods described hereinbefore the
compounds of type VII are generally synthesised using the
corresponding aldehyde R.sup.1--CHO and the corresponding azide
G-2.

[0184] The following Examples describe the biological activity of
the compounds according to the invention without restricting the
invention to these Examples.
[0185] Compounds of general formula (1) are characterised by their
wide range of applications in the therapeutic field. Particular
mention should be made of those applications in which the
inhibition of specific signal enzymes, particularly the inhibiting
effect on the proliferation of cultivated human tumour cells but
also the proliferation of other cells, such as endothelial cells,
for example, plays a part.
Kinase Test B-Raf (V600E)
[0186] In a dilution series, 10 .mu.L aliquots of test substance
solution are placed in a multiwell plate. The dilution series is
selected so as to cover a range of concentrations from 50 .mu.M to
1 nM. The final concentration of DMSO is 5%.
[0187] 10 .mu.L of the B-Raf (V600E) kinase solution are pipetted
in (containing 2.5 ng B-Raf (V600E)-kinase in 20 mM Tris HCl pH
7.5, 0.1 mM EDTA, 0.1 mM EGTA, 0.286 mM sodium orthovanadate, 10%
glycerol, 1 mg/mL bovine serum albumin, 1 mM dithiothreitol) and
incubated for 24 h at RT with agitation. The kinase reaction is
started by the addition of 20 .mu.L ATP solution [625 .mu.M ATP, 75
mM Tris HCl pH 7.5, 0.05% Brij, 0.5 mM sodium orthovanadate, 25 mM
magnesium acetate, phosphatise cocktail (Sigma P2850, dilution
recommended by the manufacturer), 0.25 mM EGTA] and 10 .mu.L MEK1
solution [containing 50 ng biotinylated MEK1 (prepared from
purified MEK1 according to standard procedure, e.g. with reagent
EZ-Link Sulfo-NHS-LC-Biotin, Pierce 21335) in 20 mM Tris HCl pH
7.5, 0.1 mM EDTA, 0.1 mM EGTA, 0.286 mM sodium orthovanadate, 10%
glycerol, 1 mg/mL bovine serum albumin, 1 mM dithiothreitol] and
carried out for 60 min at RT with constant agitation. The reaction
is stopped by the addition of 12 .mu.L of a 100 mM EDTA solution
and incubated for a further 5 min.
[0188] 55 .mu.L of the reaction solution are transferred into a
streptavidine-coated plate (e.g. Streptawell HighBond, Roche
#11989685) and shaken gently for 1 h at RT, in order to bind
biotinylated MEK1 to the plate. After removal of the liquid the
plate is washed three times with 200 .mu.L of 1.times.PBS, and 100
.mu.L solution of primary antibody plus europium-labelled secondary
antibody [Anti Phospho-MEK (Ser217/221), Cell Signaling #9121 and
Eu-N1 labeled anti-rabbit antibody, Perkin Elmer #AD01015], each
diluted 1:2000 in Delfia Assay Buffer (Perkin Elmer 4002-0010), is
added. After 1 h agitation at RT the solution is poured away and
washed three times with 200 .mu.L Delfia Wash Buffer (Perkin Elmer
#4010-0010). After the addition of 200 .mu.L Enhancement Solution
(Perkin Elmer 4001-0010) the preparation is shaken for 10 min at RT
and then measured in a Wallac Victor using the programme "Delfia
Time Resolved Fluorescence (Europium)".
[0189] IC.sub.50 values are determined from these dosage-activity
curves using Standard Levenburg Marquard algorithms
(GraphPadPrizm).
[0190] Most compounds of type I-VIII exhibit a good to very good
inhibitory effect in this B-Raf (V600E) inhibition test, i.e. they
have an IC.sub.50 value of less than 1 .mu.M, generally less than
100 nM.
Measurement of the Inhibition of Proliferation on Cultivated Human
Melanoma Cells (SK-MEL28)
[0191] To measure proliferation on cultivated human tumour cells,
cells of melanoma cell line SK-MEL28 [American Type Culture
Collection (ATCC)] are cultivated in MEM medium, supplemented with
10% foetal calf serum, 0.15% NaHCO.sub.3, 1 mM sodium pyruvate, 1%
non-essential amino acids (Gibco 11140-035) and 2 mM glutamine.
SK-MEL28 cells are in 96-well flat-bottomed plates at a density of
2500 cells per well in supplemented MEM medium (see above) and
incubated overnight in an incubator (at 37.degree. C. and 5%
CO.sub.2). The active substances are added to the cells in various
concentrations so as to cover a range of concentrations from 50
.mu.M to 1 nM. After a further 72 hours incubation, 20 .mu.l
AlamarBlue reagent (Serotec Ltd.) is added to each well, and the
cells are incubated for a further 3-6 hours. The colour change of
the AlamarBlue reagent is determined in a fluorescence
spectrophotometer (e.g. Gemini, Molecular Devices). EC.sub.50
values are calculated using Standard Levenburg Marquard algorithms
(GraphPadPrizm).
Measurement of the Inhibition of the Raf Signal Transduction
Cascade (Phosphorylation Status of ERK)
[0192] Activating B-Raf triggers a signal transduction cascade,
which leads to the phosphorylation and activation of MEK and, as a
consequence, to the specific phosphorylation of ERK. The
measurement of the phosphorylation status on the ERK protein is
used as a measurement of the cellular activity of Raf proteins.
[0193] The human melanoma cell line SK-MEL28 is cultivated in MEM
medium, supplemented with 10% foetal calf serum, 0.15% NaHCO.sub.3,
1 mM sodium pyruvate, 1% non-essential amino acids (Gibco
11140-035) and 2 mM glutamine. 7500 cells are seeded in a multiwell
plate and incubated overnight in an incubator (at 37.degree. C. and
5% CO.sub.2). The active substances are added to the cells in
different concentrations, so as to cover a range of concentrations
from 50 .mu.M to 1 nM. After the substances have been left to work
for 2 h the supernatant is removed and the cells are treated with
150 .mu.L of 4% formaldehyde solution (in 1.times.PBS) for 20 min.
After the removal of the formaldehyde solution the cells are
permeabilised five times, each time with 200 .mu.L of 0.1% Triton
X100 (in 1.times.PBS) for 5 min and then treated with 150 .mu.L of
blocking solution [5% powdered milk in TBST (10 mM Tris HCl pH 8.0,
150 mM NaCl, 0.05% Tween)] for a period of 90 min. The blocking
solution is removed, replaced by 50 .mu.L of a solution with
primary antibody (mouse anti-pERK1&2, Sigma M8159, diluted
1:500 in blocking solution, see above) and incubated overnight at
4.degree. C. After elimination of the solution and washing five
times with 0.1% Tween (in 1.times.PBS) for 5 min in each case the
cells are incubated for 1 h with 50 .mu.L of a solution of the
secondary antibody (rabbit-anti-mouse, coupled to horseradish
peroxidase, e.g. DAKO PO161, diluted 1:1000 in blocking solution,
see above). The solution containing secondary antibody is removed,
washed five times with 0.1% Tween (in 1.times.PBS) for 5 min in
each case and a peroxidise reaction is carried out. For this, 100
.mu.L of the staining solution, a 1:1 mixture of TMB peroxidase
substrate (e.g. Kirkegaard & Perry Laboratories #50-76-02) and
peroxidase solution B (H.sub.2O.sub.2, e.g. Kirkegaard & Perry
Laboratories #50-65-02) is added and the mixture is incubated for
5-20 min. The reaction is ended by the addition of 100 .mu.L 1 M
phosphoric acid and the absorption is determined at a wavelength of
450 nm in a photometer (e.g. SpectraMax Plus, Molecular Devices).
Standard Levenburg Marquard algorithms (GraphPadPrizm) are used to
calculate the EC.sub.50 values from the dosage-activity curves.
[0194] Most compounds of type I-VIII exhibit a good to very good
activity in the two cellular assays described, i.e. they have an
EC.sub.50 value of less than 5 .mu.M.
[0195] The substances of the present invention are B-Raf kinase
inhibitors. As can be demonstrated by DNA staining followed by FACS
or Cellomics Array Scan analysis, the inhibition of proliferation
achieved by the compounds according to the invention is brought
about primarily by preventing entry into the DNA synthesis phase.
The treated cells arrest in the G1 phase of the cell cycle. Because
of their biological properties the compounds of general formula (1)
according to the invention, the isomers, pharmacologically
acceptable salts and polymorphs thereof are therefore suitable for
the treatment of diseases characterised by excessive or abnormal
cell proliferation.
[0196] Accordingly, the compounds according to the invention are
also tested on other tumour cells. For example these compounds are
active on the colon carcinoma cell line Colo205 and can be used for
this indication. This demonstrates the usefulness of the compounds
according to the invention for treating various type of
tumours.
[0197] Examples of diseases with excessive or abnormal cell
proliferation include for example: viral infections (e.g. HIV and
Kaposi's sarcoma); inflammatory and autoimmune diseases (e.g.
colitis, arthritis, Alzheimer's disease, glomerulonephritis and
wound healing); bacterial, fungal and/or parasitic infections;
leukaemias, lymphomas and solid tumours (e.g. carcinomas and
sarcomas), skin diseases (e.g. psoriasis); diseases based on
hyperplasia which are characterised by an increase in the number of
cells (e.g. fibroblasts, hepatocytes, bones and bone marrow cells,
cartilage or smooth muscle cells or epithelial cells (e.g.
endometrial hyperplasia)); bone diseases and cardiovascular
diseases (e.g. restenosis and hypertrophy). They are also useful
for protecting proliferating cells (e.g. hair, intestinal, blood
and progenitor cells) from DNA damage caused by radiation, UV
treatment and/or cytostatic treatment.

[0202] Suitable preparations include for example tablets, capsules,
suppositories, solutions--particularly solutions for injection
(s.c., i.v., i.m.) and infusion--elixirs, emulsions or dispersible
powders. The content of the pharmaceutically active compound(s)
should be in the range from 0.1 to 90 wt.-%, preferably 0.5 to 50
wt.-% of the composition as a whole, i.e. in amounts which are
sufficient to achieve the dosage range specified below. The doses
specified may, if necessary, be given several times a day.
[0203] Suitable tablets may be obtained, for example, by mixing the
active substance(s) with known excipients, for example inert
diluents such as calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate or lactose,
disintegrants such as corn starch or alginic acid, binders such as
starch or gelatine, lubricants such as magnesium stearate or talc
and/or agents for delaying release, such as carboxymethyl
cellulose, cellulose acetate phthalate, or polyvinyl acetate. The
tablets may also comprise several layers.
[0204] Coated tablets may be prepared accordingly by coating cores
produced analogously to the tablets with substances normally used
for tablet coatings, for example collidone or shellac, gum arabic,
talc, titanium dioxide or sugar. To achieve delayed release or
prevent incompatibilities the core may also consist of a number of
layers. Similarly the tablet coating may consist of a number of
layers to achieve delayed release, possibly using the excipients
mentioned above for the tablets.
[0205] Syrups or elixirs containing the active substances or
combinations thereof according to the invention may additionally
contain a sweetener such as saccharine, cyclamate, glycerol or
sugar and a flavour enhancer, e.g. a flavouring such as vanillin or
orange extract. They may also contain suspension adjuvants or
thickeners such as sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, wetting agents
such as, for example, condensation products of fatty alcohols with
ethylene oxide, or preservatives such as p-hydroxybenzoates.
[0206] Solutions for injection and infusion are prepared in the
usual way, e.g. with the addition of isotonic agents, preservatives
such as p-hydroxybenzoates, or stabilisers such as alkali metal
salts of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid, optionally using
emulsifiers and/or dispersants, whilst if water is used as the
diluent, for example, organic solvents may optionally be used as
solvating agents or dissolving aids, and transferred into injection
vials or ampoules or infusion bottles.
[0207] Capsules containing one or more active substances or
combinations of active substances may for example be prepared by
mixing the active substances with inert carriers such as lactose or
sorbitol and packing them into gelatine capsules.
[0208] Suitable suppositories may be made for example by mixing
with carriers provided for this purpose, such as neutral fats or
polyethyleneglycol or the derivatives thereof.
[0209] Excipients which may be used include, for example, water,
pharmaceutically acceptable organic solvents such as paraffins
(e.g. petroleum fractions), vegetable oils (e.g. groundnut or
sesame oil), mono- or polyfunctional alcohols (e.g. ethanol or
glycerol), carriers such as e.g. natural mineral powders (e.g.
kaolins, clays, talc, chalk), synthetic mineral powders (e.g.
highly dispersed silicic acid and silicates), sugars (e.g. cane
sugar, lactose and glucose) emulsifiers (e.g. lignin, spent
sulphite liquors, methylcellulose, starch and polyvinylpyrrolidone)
and lubricants (e.g. magnesium stearate, talc, stearic acid and
sodium lauryl sulphate).
[0210] The preparations are administered by the usual methods,
preferably by oral or transdermal route, most preferably by oral
route. For oral administration the tablets may, of course contain,
apart from the abovementioned carriers, additives such as sodium
citrate, calcium carbonate and dicalcium phosphate together with
various additives such as starch, preferably potato starch,
gelatine and the like. Moreover, lubricants such as magnesium
stearate, sodium lauryl sulphate and talc may be used at the same
time for the tabletting process. In the case of aqueous suspensions
the active substances may be combined with various flavour
enhancers or colourings in addition to the excipients mentioned
above.
[0211] For parenteral use, solutions of the active substances with
suitable liquid carriers may be used.
[0212] The dosage for intravenous use is from 1-1000 mg per hour,
preferably between 5 and 500 mg per hour.
[0213] However, it may sometimes be necessary to depart from the
amounts specified, depending on the body weight, the route of
administration, the individual response to the drug, the nature of
its formulation and the time or interval over which the drug is
administered. Thus, in some cases it may be sufficient to use less
than the minimum dose given above, whereas in other cases the upper
limit may have to be exceeded. When administering large amounts it
may be advisable to divide them up into a number of smaller doses
spread over the day.
[0214] The formulation examples that follow illustrate the present
invention without restricting its scope:
Examples of Pharmaceutical Formulations
