Substituted alpah-methylbenzyl and tricyclic arylalkyl lactamimides as inhibitors of blood platelet aggregation.

N-[1-(p-Phenoxyphenyl)ethyl]hexahydro-2H-azepin-2-imine hydrochloride (10) and N-[1-(2-dibenzothienyl)-ethyl]hexahydro-2H-azepin-2-imine hydrochloride (22) were found to inhibit in vitro aggregation of human blood platelets induced by ADP with minimal release of procoagulant platelet factor 3. The compounds were selected from a series of substituted alpha-methylbenzyl and tricyclic arylalkyl lactamimides that were free of hypoglycemic and diuretic effects. Compounds 10 and 22, as well as N-[1-(1-naphthyl)ethyl]hexahydro-2H-azepin-2-imine hydrochloride (I) and N-(2,2-diphenylpentyl)hexahydro-2H-azepin-2-imine hydrochloride (II), were evaluated for effects on ADP-induced platelet aggregation after repeated oral administration to guinea pigs. Compound II (RMI 12,366A) showed in vivo activity in this system 2 h after the last of four daily doses of 100 mg/kg po.

(2-Piperidine)- and (2-pyrrolidine)ethanones and -ethanols as inhibitors of blood platelet aggregation.

(E)-4-[4-(Methylthio)phenyl]-1-(2-piperidinyl)-3-buten-2-one hydrochloride (44, RMI 14 133A) was found to inhibit ADP-induced aggregation of blood platelets. It was selected from a large series of (2-piperidinyl)- and (2-pyrrolidinyl)ethanones synthesized by a modified Schopf reaction from enolate magnesium salts of beta-keto acids and 2,3,4,5-tetrahydropyridine trimer or 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrrole trimer, respectively. Evaluation of the compounds was carried out in vitro on human blood platelets. Structure-activity relationships are discussed. 44 also inhibited platelet aggregation ex vivo in guinea pigs. Subacute toxicity evaluation in dogs and guinea pigs showed it to have an unfavorable therapeutic ratio. 1-[4'-Chloro(1,1'-biphenyl)-4-yl-a1-2-(2-piperdinyl)ethanone hydrochloride (18, RMI 12436A) was found to lower serum cholesterol levles in rats with concurrent accumulation of (3beta)-cholesta-5,7-dien-3-ol, suggesting inhibition of 7-dehydrocholesterol delta7-reductase.

The in vitro and in vivo evaluation of tilorone hydrochloride as a platelet aggregation inhibitor.

Tilorone hydrochloride was tested in vitro for inhibition of platelet aggregation in the ADP, collagen, and epinephrine-induced platelet aggregation systems. Tilorone did not significantly inhibit the first phase of platelet aggregation induced by ADP, but was a very potent inhibitor of the second phase of platelet aggregation (release reaction) as illustrated by the epinephrine-induced system. When the compound was given to rats by stomach tube at 100 mg/kg for 2 doses, 24 h apart and blood taken 24 h after the second dose, an inhibition of collagen-induced platelet aggregation was found. This result is interpreted as inhibiting the release reaction and second phase platelet aggregation.
