Description

NITROSO DIPHENYLAMINE DERIVATIVES
The invention relates to nitroso diphenylamine derivatives, to pharmaceutical compositions containing them and to their use for preparing medicinal products which may be used for treating pathologies characterized by an oxidative stress condition and a lack of availability of endothelial nitrogen monoxide (NO*).
Nitrogen monoxide (or nitric oxide NO*) is an important mediator in the physiology of cardiovascular, immune and central and peripheral nervous systems. It acts, among other mechanisms, by activation of guanylate cyclase.
Its action is ubiquitous: it is vasodilator/ and gives a basal tonus to the entire vascular system. It has anti-clotting activity: its production by normal endothelial cells inhibits the formation of a thrombus. It is anti-proliferative, especially on the smooth muscle cells underlying the endothelial cells. It also inhibits the adhesion of monocytes to the vascular wall and, consequently, its conversion to a macrophage. It regulates endothelial permeability. There is thus, in the physiological state, a situation of equilibrium between the production of free-radical species and the availability of NO.
Disequilibrium of this balance, the result of which is an excess of superoxide anions in the face of a lack of NO, leads to the development of many pathologies. Oxidative stress is generated by many factors such as hyperglycaemia, dyslipidaemias (production of oxidized, highly atherogenic "low- density" lipoproteins (LDL)), hypoxia, insulin resistance, atherosclerosis, revascularization techniques (including angioplasties with or without a stent), chronic rejection after transplantation, the majority of inflammatory processes, and addiction to smoking. Oxidative stress is characterized at the vascular level by an increase in free radicals, in particular of superoxide anions (0_* ")•
These 02*" radicals are capable of trapping the NO endogenously produced by the endothelial cells to form free-radical species that are even more deleterious, for instance peroxynithtes. Among the pathologies concerned by a lack of production of endothelial nitrogen monoxide and/or an increase in oxidative tissue stress, mention may be made of (Recent Progress in Hormone Research (1988), 53, 43- 60, table V): ■ atherosclerosis-associated ischaemias (lipid peroxidation, development, progress and rupture of atheroma plaques, platelet activation); restenosis after angioplasty; stenosis after vascular surgery; diabetes; insulin resistance; retinal and renal microvascular complications of diabetes; the cardiovascular risk of diabetes in so far as it is not explained by the conventional factors; ■ male erectile dysfunction; cerebral hypoxia; chronic rejection after organ transplantation; articular pathologies.
The administration of active principles capable of reducing the biological activity of oxidative free-radical species (such as superoxide anions and peroxynitrites) and of increasing the content of nitrogen monoxide by a twofold mechanism: non-conversion into peroxynitrites and exogenous supply, is thus particularly desirable in the treatment of these pathologies.
The present invention provides compounds which have these two effects, antioxidant and nitrogen monoxide-donating, in the same molecule.
These compounds are capable of spontaneously generating nitrogen monoxide under physiological conditions and of trapping oxidative free radicals.
The spontaneous NO-donating effect does not induce a tachyphylactic effect, unlike compounds that are substrates of NO synthase, and unlike nitro derivatives or derivatives of oxadiazole or oxatriazole type which mobilize endogenous thiols groups to release NO.
The spontaneous NO-donating effect makes it possible to achieve pharmacological NO activity in pathologies in which the activity of NO synthase is insufficient.

The term "organic substituent (Y)" means any substituent attached to the carbonyl group (A) via a carbon atom, and more particularly a substituent comprising one or more carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, sulfur, phosphorus, halogen, silicon and hydrogen atoms.
In the context of the invention, the term "alkyl" means a linear or branched hydrocarbon-based chain comprising from 1 to 14 carbon atoms, preferably from 1 to 10 and better still from 1 to 6 carbon atoms, for example from 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
Examples of alkyl radicals are methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, t-butyl, pentyl, isopentyl, neopentyl, 2-methyl butyl, 1-ethylpropyl, hexyl, isohexyi, neohexyl, 1-methylpentyl, 3-methyl pentyl, 1 ,1-dimethylbutyl, 1 ,3- dimethylbutyl, 2-ethylbutyl, 1-methyl-1-ethylpropyl, heptyl, 1-methylhexyl, 1-propyl butyl, 4,4-dimethylpentyl, octyl, 1 -methyl heptyl, 2-methylhexyl, 5,5- dimethylhexyl, nonyl, decyl, 1-methylnonyl, 3,7-dimethyloctyl and 7,7- dimethyloctyl.
The term "halogen atom" means chlorine, bromine, iodine or fluorine. In the context of the invention, the expression "radical substituted with oxo" means the corresponding radical bearing on one of the carbon atoms constituting it a group = O as substituent.
The expression "saturated or unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbon- based chain" means a linear or branched, preferably Cι-C 4 and better still C-I-C-IO chain, for example a Ci-Cβ or Cι-C4 chain.
If this chain is unsaturated, it contains one or more unsaturations, preferably one or two unsaturations. The unsaturations are either of ethylenic or of acetylenic type. They are preferably ethylenic. The unsaturated chains contain at least two carbon atoms.
The alkyl groups are examples of saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon- based chains.
The alkenyl and alkynyl groups are examples of unsaturated aliphatic hydrocarbon-based chains. The expression "optionally interrupted with O and/or S" means that any carbon atom of the hydrocarbon-based chain may be replaced with an oxygen or sulfur atom, this carbon atom not being able to be located at the free end of the hydrocarbon-based chain. The hydrocarbon-based chain, which may be alkyl, may comprise several oxygen and/or sulfur atoms, the hetero atoms preferably being separated from each other by at least one carbon atom and better still by at least two carbon atoms.
An example of an aliphatic hydrocarbon-based chain interrupted with O or S is alkoxy or thioalkoxy.
The carbocyclic and heterocyclic radicals include mono- and polycyclic radicals; these radicals preferably denote mono-, bi- or tricyclic radicals. In the case of polycyclic radicals, it should be understood that these consist of monocycles fused in pairs (for example ortho-fused or peri-fused), i.e. having at least two carbon atoms in common. Preferably, each monocycle is 3- to 8-membered and better still 5- to 7-membered. The cycloalkyl groups are an example of saturated carbocyclic radicals and preferably contain from 3 to 18 carbon atoms and better still from 3 to 10 carbon atoms, such as cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cycloheptyl, cyclooctyl, adamantyl or norbomyl radicals. The unsaturated carbocyclic groups comprise one or more, preferably 1 to 3, ethylenic double bonds, and consist generally of from 6 to 18 and better still from 6 to 10 carbon atoms. Examples of these are cycloalkenyl radicals, and in particular cyclohexenyl.
The aromatic carbocyclic groups are, for example, CΘ-CIS aryl groups and in particular phenyl, naphthyl, anthryl and phenanthryl.
It should be understood that the expression "saturated, unsaturated and/or aromatic cyclic radical" means that the same radical may comprise a saturated portion and/or an unsaturated portion and/or an aromatic portion.
Mention will be made, for example, of the case of the following carbocyclic radicals:
Mention may also be made of the case of the following heterocyclic radicals:
in which P represents O, S or SO2 and M represents N or C. Preferably, in B1 , P represents O; in B2, P represents O or S; in B3, P represents SO2 or O and M represents C or N; in B4, P represents S; in B5, M represents N and P represents S; in B6, P represents O; in B7, P represents O; in B8, P represents O; in B9, P represents O; in B10, P represents S; in B11 , P represents 0; in B12, P represents O; in B13, P represents N.
When M or P represents N, the latter is preferably substituted with a hydrogen atom, an alkyl or an alkylcarbonyl. The heterocyclic groups comprise hetero atoms generally chosen from O, S and N, optionally in oxidized form (in the case of S and N).
Preferably, each of the monocycles constituting the heterocycle comprises from 1 to 4 hetero atoms, and better still from 1 to 3 hetero atoms. The following are distinguished in particular: - 5- to 7-membered monocyclic heterocycles such as, for example, heteroaryls chosen from pyridine, furan, thiophene, pyrrole, pyrazole, imidazole, thiazole, isoxazole, isothiazole, furazane, pyridazine, pyrimidine, pyrazine, thiazines, oxazole, pyrazole, oxadiazole, triazole and thiadiazole; and also unsaturated and saturated derivatives thereof. Examples of unsaturated 7- membered heterocycles are trithiatriazepines and trithiadiazepines. Examples of saturated 5- to 7-membered heterocycles are in particular tetrahydrofuran, dioxolane, imidazolidine, pyrazolidine, piperidine, dioxane, morpholine, dithiane, thiomorpholine, piperazine, trithiane, oxepine and azepine;
- bicyclic heterocycles in which each monocycle is 5- to 7- membered, such as, for example heteroaryls chosen from indolizine, indole, isoindole, benzofuran, benzothiophene, indazole, benzimidazole, benzothiazole, benzofurazane, benzothiofurazane, purine, quinoline, isoquinoline, cinnoline, phthalazine, quinazoline, quinoxaline, naphthyridines, pyrazolotriazine (such as pyrazolo-1 ,3,4-triazine), pyrazolopyrimidine and pteridine; and also unsaturated and saturated derivatives thereof; - tricyclic heterocycles in which each monocycle is 5- to 7- membered, whether they are completely aromatic, such as, for example, acridine, phenazine carbazole, or not, such as unsaturated and saturated derivatives thereof, phenothiazine or phenoxazine.

The compounds of the invention may be simply prepared by nitrosation of the corresponding compounds of the formula II of the formula:
in which T, X, and Y are as defined abov„e for formula I, by the action of a suitable nitrosating agent.
Particularly advantageous examples of nitrosating agents are an alkali metal nitrite (and in particular sodium or potassium nitrite) or a C C4 alkyl nitrite.
A preferred alkali metal nitrite which may be mentioned is sodium nitrite.
A preferred alkyl nitrite which may be mentioned is ethyl nitrite.
Nevertheless, a person skilled in the art can use any nitrosating agent known in the art, such as AgONO, BF4NO, HOS03NO, nBuONO and tBuONO.
The amount of nitrosating agent required depends on the nature of the nitrosating agent used and on the reactivity of the substrate of the formula II.
It is at least stoichiometric. In general, the molar ratio of the nitrosating agent to the substrate of the formula II ranges between 1 and 30 equivalents and preferably between 1 and 20 equivalents.
When the nitrosating agent is and alkali metal nitrite, a person skilled in the art may readily adapt the reaction conditions so as to use only 1 to 10, preferably from 1 to 5 and better still from 1 to 3 equivalents of nitrite relative to the substrate of the formula II.
When the nitrosating agent is an alkyl nitrite, it is preferable to perform the process in the presence of 10 to 25 molar equivalents of nitrite, and preferably from 15 to 20 molar equivalents, relative to the amount of substrate of the formula II. The choice of solvent and the temperature conditions depend in particular on the type of nitrosating agent selected for the reaction.
When the nitrosating agent is AgONO, nBuONO or tBuONO, the solvent is advantageously chosen from a cyclic or non-cyclic ether (such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, dimethoxyethane or diethylene glycol dimethyl ether), an aliphatic or aromatic halogenated hydrocarbon (such as chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, dichloroethane, chlorobenzene or dichlorobenzene). Preferably, the solvent is tetrahydrofuran, diethyl ether or chloroform. The reaction temperature will generally the maintained between 15 and 70°C and better still between 17 and 60°C, in the case of AgONO, nBuONO and tBuONO.
More particularly, in the case of AgONO and nBuONO, the process will be performed in tetrahydrofuran or diethyl ether at a temperature of between 15 and 30°C, for example between 18 and 25°C.
In the case of tBuONO, the process will preferably be performed in chloroform at a temperature of between 40 and 65°C, for example between 50 and 60°C.
When the nitrosating agent is AgONO, it is desirable to add thionyl chloride to the reaction medium.
When the nitrosating agent is HOS03NO, the reaction is preferably carried out in an alkali metal salt of a lower (d-Cs) carboxylic acid, such as sodium acetate, at a reaction temperature of between -10°C and 30°C and better still between -5 °C and 25°C. When the nitrosating agent is BF4NO, a suitable solvent is a nitrile such as acetonitrile or isobutyronitrile. It is desirable to add pyridine or N-dimethylaminopyridine to the reaction medium, the reaction temperature being maintained between -30°C and 10°C and preferably between -25°C and 5°C.
When the nitrosating agent is an alkali metal nitrite, the nitrosation reaction is preferably carried out in a strongly polar protic medium. Advantageously, the reaction medium contains water and a Brδnsted or Lewis acid.
Suitable acids are a hydrohalic acid (such as HCI), sulfuric acid, AI2(SO )3 and acetic acid, and mixtures thereof. According to one particular embodiment of the invention, an aliphatic alcohol of (d-C )alkanol type (such as methanol or butanol) may be added.
Thus, a suitable reaction medium which may be selected is one of the following systems: - a mixture of methanol, water, hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid;
- a mixture of water and sulfuric acid;
- a mixture of water and acetic acid;
- a mixture of water, butanol and hydrochloric acid; - a mixture of water and AI2(SO4)3, or
- a mixture of water and hydrochloric acid.
Advantageously, the reaction of the alkali metal nitrite with the substrate of the formula II is carried out in a mixture of acetic acid and water, the ratio of the acetic acid to water ranging between 80:20 and 20:80 and preferably between 60:40 and 40:60, for example a 50:50 mixture. According to one preferred embodiment, the alkali metal nitrite, predissolved in water, is added dropwise to a solution of the substrate of the formula II in acetic acid.
The reaction of the alkali metal nitrite with the substrate of the formula II is carried out at a temperature which depends on the reactivity of the species present; this temperature generally ranges between -10°C and 50°C and preferably between -5°C and 25°C.
When the nitrosation reaction is carried out in a mixture of acetic acid and water, a temperature of between 15°C and 25°C is particularly suitable. The reaction of the alkyl nitrite with the substrate of the formula II is preferably carried out in the presence of a Cι-C alkanol in a polar aprotic solvent.
Suitable alkanols which may be mentioned are methanol, ethanol, isopropanol and tert-butanol, ethanol being particularly preferred.
Polar solvents that are preferred are halogenated hydrocarbons, such as methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, dichloroethane, chlorobenzene or dichlorobenzene; ethers such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, dimethoxyethane or diethylene glycol dimethyl ether; nitriles such as acetonitrile or isobutyronitrile; amides such as formamide, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone or hexamethyl- phosphoramide; and mixtures of these solvents in any proportions.
Advantageously, the nitrosation reaction (when an alkyl nitrite is used as nitrosating agent) is carried out in a mixture based on an aliphatic halogenated hydrocarbon and a nitrile, and, for example, in a 90:10 to 50:50 and preferably a 90:10 to 70:30 mixture of chloroform and acetonitrile, in the presence of ethanol.
The amount of alkanol which needs to be incorporated into the reaction medium is not critical according to the invention. It generally represents 5% to 50% by weight of the reaction medium, and preferably from 5% to 25% by weight.
When the nitrosating agent is an alkyl nitrite, the reaction temperature is generally maintained between -20°C and 20°C and preferably between -10°C and 10°C, for example between 0°C and 5°C. According to one preferred embodiment of the invention, a solution of the alkyl nitrate in the alkanol is added dropwise to the substrate of the formula
II predissolved in the selected polar solvent.
As a variant, the reaction is carried out in a strongly polar medium consisting of a mixture of a CrC aliphatic carboxylic acid ((Cι-C )alkyl-COOH), the corresponding acid anhydride and the corresponding alkali metal carboxylate salt, in the presence of P2O5. By way of example, a reaction medium consisting of acetic acid, acetic anhydride, potassium acetate and P2O5 may be selected. In this case, the reaction temperature is advantageously maintained between 10°C and 100°C and preferably between 15°C and 85°C. The compounds of the formula II may be prepared by carrying out one of the following processes.

Examples of protecting groups for the amino group which may be mentioned are the formyl group, the acetyl group, the chloroacetyl group, the dichloroacetyl group, the phenylacetyl group, the thienylacetyl group, the tert- butoxycarbonyl group, the benzyloxycarbonyl group, the trityl group, the p-methoxybenzyl group, the diphenylmethyl group, the benzylidene group, the p-nitrobenzylidene group, the m-nitrobenzylidene group, the 3,4-methylene- dioxybenzylidene group and the m-chlorobenzylidene group.
Protecting groups that are particularly preferred are especially (Cι-C6)alkoxycarbonyl and (C6-Cιo)aryl-(d-C6)alkoxycarbonyl, such as tert- butoxycarbonyl and benzyloxycarbonyl.
The compounds of the formula II result of from the removal of the protecting group P in the corresponding compounds of the formula IV. The removal of the protecting group P is carried out in a manner which is conventional per se. Suitable methods are described in particular in Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, Greene T.W. and Wuts P.G.M, published by John Wiley and Sons, 1991 and in Protecting Groups, Kocienski P.J, 1994, Georg Thieme Verlag. The compounds of the formula IV are prepared simply by reacting the corresponding amine of the formula III with Y-CO-Z in which Y-CO-Z is a carboxylic acid (in which case Z represents -OH) or an activated form thereof.
When Y-CO-Z represents a carboxylic acid in activated form, preferred activating groups are those which are well known in the art, such as, for example, chlorine, bromine, azide, imidazolide, p-nitrophenoxy, 1-benzotriazole, N-O-succinimide, acyloxy and more particularly pivaloyloxy, (Cι-C alkoxy)- carbonyloxy such as C2H50-CO-0-, and dialkyl- or dicycloalkyl-O-ureide.
When Z = OH in Y-CO-Z, the reaction of Y-CO-Z with compound III is carried out in the presence of a coupling agent such as a carbodiimide, optionally in the presence of an activating agent such as hydroxybenzotriazole or hydroxysuccinimide with intermediate formation of dialkyl- or dicycloalkyl-O- ureides. Representative coupling agents are dicyclohexyl- and diisopropylcarbodiimides, carbodiimides that are soluble in an aqueous medium, or bis(2-oxo-3-oxazolidinyl)phosphonyl chloride.
According to one particularly advantageous embodiment, Y-CO-Z represents Y-CO-OH or Y-CO-hal in which hal is halogen and more particularly a chlorine atom.
When Y-CO-Z represents Y-CO-hal, it is desirable to perform the process in the presence of a mineral or organic base such as, for example, a hydroxide (such as an ammonium or alkali metal hydroxide), a carbonate (such as an alkali metal or alkaline-earth metal carbonate), an alkali metal alkoxide, an alkali metal amide, ammonia, triethylamine, tributylamine, pyridine or N-methyl- morpholine. Another suitable base which may be used is a resin-supported base. Resins of this type are commercially available.
Mention may be made, for example, of N.N-(diisopropyl)- aminomethylpolystyrene and morpholinomethylpolystyrene resins.
The molar ratio of the base to the compound of the formula III generally ranges between 1 and 10 equivalents and preferably between 1 and 5 equivalents. However, the reaction may be carried out in the presence of a large excess of base without harming the correct progress of the reaction. The reaction is preferably carried out in a solvent. In certain cases, the base may act as solvent. This is the case, for example, for pyridine.
As a variant, it is advantageous to select a polar aprotic solvent and, for example, a halogenated hydrocarbon such as methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, dichloroethane, chlorobenzene or dichloro- benzene, dichloroethane being particularly preferred. The compounds III and Y-CO-hal are preferably reacted together in stoichiometric amounts. Nevertheless, an excess of the acid halide may be used. Thus, the molar ratio of Y-CO-hal to compound III generally ranges between 1 and 2 and preferably between 1 and 1.5. During the reaction of Y-CO-hal with compound III, the temperature will generally be maintained between -20°C and 20°C and preferably between -10°C and 10°C, for example between 0°C and 5°C.
When Y-CO-Z represents Y-CO-OH, it is particularly advantageous to use bis(2-oxo-3-oxazolidinyl)phosphonyl chloride as coupling agent, in a proportion of from 1 to 2 and preferably from 1 to 1.5 molar equivalents relative to compound III, while at the same time working in a polar aprotic solvent such as a halogenated hydrocarbon.
According to this embodiment (Y-COZ = Y-CO-OH), aliphatic halogenated hydrocarbons are preferred as solvents, dichloromethane being particularly suitable, and the presence of a base in the reaction medium is desirable. Advantageously, the base is chosen from those defined above. Preferably, the molar ratio of Y-CO-OH to compound III ranges between 1 and 2 and preferably between 1 and 1.5 and the reaction temperature is maintained between -20°C and 20°C and better still between -10°C and 10°C, for example between 0°C and 5°C.
Scheme 2 below more specifically illustrates a method for synthesizing compound III.

Scheme 2
In this scheme, T and P as defined above for formula III. In a first step, a suitable aniline of the formula V-1 , in which T is as defined for compound III, is reacted with formic acid using an aromatic hydrocarbon such as toluene as solvent, so as to obtain the amide VI-1. This amide is reacted with p-nitrophenyl chloride in the presence of sodium in a mixture of amide and of aromatic hydrocarbon as solvent (such as a mixture of toluene and dimethylformamide), at a temperature of between 100°C and 200°C, in the presence of a base (such as sodium hydroxide), to give the diphenylamine VII. After protecting the amino group of the amine Vll, the resulting protected amine of the formula VIII is subjected to the action of a reducing agent so as to convert the nitro function into an amino function, to give the compound of the formula IX. This reduction is carried out, for example, by catalytic hydrogenation in the presence of palladium-on-charcoal.
A person skilled in the art will readily determine the precise reaction conditions for these reactions, these being conventional reactions of organic chemistry.
The compound of the formula Vll may be prepared by reacting a suitable dihydroxyborane (compound V-2 below) with a suitable aniline (compound VI-2 below) according to the following reaction scheme:
V-2 VI-2 Vl1
Suitable reaction conditions are:
- the use of an aliphatic or aromatic halogenated hydrocarbon as solvent, such as methylene chloride, carbon tetrachloride, dichloroethane, chlorobenzene, dichlorobenzenes or chloroform, and mixtures thereof (preferably methylene chloride);
- the presence of a base in the reaction medium and more particularly triethylamine, tributylamine, pyridine or 4-dimethylaminopyridine (and preferably triethylamine), and
- the presence of cuprous diacetate (Cu(OAc)2) in the reaction medium,
- a temperature of between 10°C and 60°C and preferably between 15°C and 50°C. Variant A2
This second variant allows the preparation of compounds of the formula II in which A represents CO and X represents methyl.

In this Scheme 3, T and P are as defined above for formula III and Y is as defined above for formula I.
In a first step, a suitable amine of the formula IX is treated with formic acid so as to form the amide of the formula X.
Formic acid and the amine IX are reacted together in stoichiometric amounts. Preferably, the molar ratio of formic acid to amine IX ranges between 1 and 1.5 and better still between 1 and 1.3.
This reaction can be carried out in a polar aprotic solvent such as an optionally halogenated aromatic hydrocarbon of the type such as benzene, toluene, xylene, chlorobenzene or dichlorobenzene. In a first stage, the reaction medium is maintained at a temperature of between 10°C and 40°C, preferably between 20°C and 30°C, for 5 to 48 hours, for example for 10 to 24 hours. Next, the mixture is heated to between 80°C and 150°C and preferably between 90°C and 120°C so as to bring about the removal of water, leading to the expected compound of the formula X. In the next step, the amide formed X is reduced by the action of a suitable reducing agent to the amine of the formula III. Examples of suitable reducing agents are borane, trichlorosilane, dimethyl sulfide/borane (SMβ2, BH3) and the system BF3-Et20/NaBH4. According to one preferred embodiment, excess dimethyl sulfide/borane is used. Thus, the molar ratio of dimethyl sulfide/borane to amide X will preferably be maintained between 1.5 and 5 equivalents and better still between 2 and 4 equivalents, for example between 2 and 3 equivalents.
The reduction is advantageously carried out in a polar aprotic solvent and more particularly in an ether, such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane , dimethoxyethane or diethylene glycol dimethyl ether. Dimethoxyethane is the preferred solvent. The reaction medium is preferably maintained during the reduction at a temperature of between 40°C and 100°C and preferably between 50°C and 80°C. After the reaction, the reaction medium is worked up in the usual manner.
The reaction medium is conventionally cooled to between -10°C and 10°C and water is then added to the medium, after which the amine formed of the formula III is isolated.
The conversion of the compound of the formula III into a compound of the formula II is carried out by performing the process as in Scheme 1 by reaction with a suitable carboxylic acid or an activated derivative thereof of the formula Y-CO-Z, followed by deprotection of the amino function of the resulting diphenylamine.
B - Preparation of the compounds of the formula II in which A represents CO and X represents -A-Y.
These compounds may be prepared by following the reaction scheme illustrated in Scheme 4:
Scheme 4
In this scheme, Y and T are as defined above for formula II and P is as defined above for formula III. The reaction of compound IX with the acid halide of the formula
Y-CO-hal in which Y is as defined in formula II and hal represents a halogen atom, preferably a chlorine atom, is carried out in a manner which is conventional per se, under conditions similar to those used for the reaction of compound III with Y-CO-Z when Z represents hal (Scheme 1 ), except that it is necessary to perform the process in the presence of at least two equivalents of Y-CO-hal per equivalent of compound of the formula IX.
Usually, the molar ratio of Y-CO-hal to compound IX ranges between 2 and 10, for example between 2 and 5 and better still between 2 and 4.
According to one particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, the reagent Y-CO-hal, dissolved in the solvent, is added per portion of about 1 molar equivalent to the reaction medium. At each addition of Y-CO-hal, a simultaneous addition of base is carried out. At each addition, the molar ratio of the base to the reagent Y-CO-hal is maintained between 1.5 and 10 and preferably between 1.5 and 3. Overall, the amount of amine used in the reaction ranges between 1.5 and 10 equivalents and preferably between 1.5 and 3 equivalents per mole of Y-CO-hal. Preferred operating conditions are the use of triethylamine as base, the use of dichloromethane as solvent and a temperature of between 10°C and 50°C and preferably between 20°C and 30°C during the addition of the reagents, followed by a temperature of 30°C to 80°C and preferably from 30°C to 50°C for 30 minutes to 15 hours (for example for 1 to 5 hours) after addition of the reagents.
Compound XI is then subjected to a deprotection reaction so as to remove the protecting group P from the amino function. This reaction is carried out in a manner which is conventional per se.
C - Preparation of the compounds of the formula II in which A represents SO2 and X represents H or alkyl.
Scheme 5 illustrates one route for preparing these compounds.
A suitable amine of the formula III is reacted with a sulfonyl halide of the formula Y-S02-hal in which Y is as defined in formula II and hal represents a halogen atom, preferably a chlorine atom. The molar ratio of the sulfonyl halide to the compound of the formula XI preferentially ranges between 1 and 2 and preferably between 1 and 1.5.

Scheme 5
In this scheme, T and P are as defined above for formula 111, Y is as defined for formula I and X represents H or (Ci-Cio)alkyl. The reaction is preferably carried out at between -10°C and 10°C, for example between -5°C and 5°C, in the presence of a base as defined above in the case of the reaction of compound III with Y-CO-Z (Scheme 1).
The preferred bases are pyridine and triethylamine. Advantageously, the molar ratio of the base to Y-S02-hal ranges between 1.5 and 10, preferably between 1.5 and 5 and better still between 1.5 and 3.
As a variant, the base may act as solvent, in which case it is present in very large excess in the reaction medium.
One example of a base which is suitable as solvent is pyridine. When the reaction of III with Y-SO2-hal is carried out in a solvent which is different from the base, this solvent is preferably a polar aprotic solvent chosen from an aliphatic or aromatic halogenated hydrocarbon (such as methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, dichloroethane, chlorobenzene or dichlorobenzene), an ether (such as diethyl ether, diisopropyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, dimethoxyethane or diethylene glycol dimethyl ether), a nitrile (such as acetonitrile or isobutyronitrile) or an amide (such as formamide, dimethylformamide, dimethyiacetamide, N-methylpyrrolidone or hexamethylphosphoramide).
The reaction temperature is advantageously maintained between -30°C and 50°C and preferably between -10°C and 10°C.
The compound of the formula XII is thus isolated.
This compound is treated in a conventional manner so as to deprotect the amino function by removal of the protecting group P.
D - Preparation of the compounds of the formula II in which A represents SO2 and X represents -A-Y.
These compounds are prepared simply by following the reaction scheme given in Scheme 6: deprotection

Scheme 6
In this scheme, T and P are as defined above for formula III and Y is as defined above for formula I.
In order to synthesize the compound of the formula XIII, it is necessary to react at least 2 equivalents of the sulfonyl halide of the formula Y- SU2-hal with the compound of the formula IX. Preferably, the molar ratio of Y- SO2-hal to compound IX ranges between 2 and 10 and preferably between 2 and 5, for example between 2 and 4.
The reaction of compound IX with Y-S02-hal is carried out in the presence of a base; the bases which may be used are those recommended for the reaction of compound III with Y-SO2-hal (Scheme 5). The molar ratio of the base to Y-SO2-hal is preferably between 2 and 10 and better still between 2 and 5, for example between 3 and 4. A preferred base which may be mentioned is triethylamine. The reaction of compound IX with Y-S02-haI is either carried out using the base as solvent, for example pyridine, or in one of the preferred solvents recommended in the case of the reaction of compound III with Y-SO2-hal (Scheme 5) and more particularly in an aliphatic halogenated hydrocarbon such as dichloromethane. According to one preferred embodiment of the invention, Y-SO2-hal and the base are added portionwise to a solution of compound IX in a solvent. At each addition, from 1 to 1.5 equivalents of Y-SO2-hal relative to compound IX and from 1 to 1.5 equivalents of base relative to compound IX are added. The reaction of compound IX with Y-Sθ2-hal is preferably carried out at a temperature of between 10°C and 50°C and better still between 20°C and 30°C.
E - Preparation of the compounds of the formula II in which A represents -CO-NRa- and X represents H or alkyl.
The compounds of the formula II in which Ra represents H are prepared, for example, by carrying out the process illustrated in Scheme 7.

ll (A = C Nall )
Scheme 7
In this scheme, T and P are as defined above for formula III, Y is as defined above for formula I, X represents H or (d-C10)alkyl and alk represents (d-Cιo)alkyl. In a first step, the compounds of the formula XIV are prepared by reacting a compound of the formula III with an isocyanate of the formula Y-
N=C=O. The process is preferably performed in a solvent, at a temperature of between 10°C and 50°C, in the presence of 0.8 to 1.3 equivalents of isocyanate relative to the compound of the formula III.
According to one preferred embodiment of the invention, the molar ratio of the isocyanate to compound III ranges between 0.8 and 1 , and the reaction temperature is between 20°C and 30°C.
The preferred solvents are polar aprotic solvents of the aliphatic or aromatic halogenated hydrocarbon type, such as methylene chloride, chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, dichloroethane, chlorobenzene or dichlorobenzene. Dichloromethane is clearly preferred.
The expected compound of the formula XIV is isolated at the end of the reaction. The compounds of the formula II in which Ra represents H are readily obtained from the compounds of the formula XIV, by deprotection of the amino function, by means of removing the group P in a conventional manner.
The compounds of the formula II in which Ra represents alkyl are similarly obtained from the compounds of the formula XV by deprotection of the amino function, by means of removing the group P.
The compounds of the formula XV may be simply prepared from the corresponding compounds of the formula XIV by alkylating the amino function, for example by the action of an alkyl halide in the presence of a base. When X represents H in the compound of the formula XIV, and in order to prepare a compound of XV in which X represents H, it is necessary first to protect the amino function directly linked to the phenyl nucleus before carrying out the alkylation of the amino function of the group -NH-Y. After alkylation, this protective function is removed conventionally to give the desired compound XV.
After deprotection, compound XV gives the compound of the formula II in which A represents -CO-NRa- in which Ra represents alkyl, X being either H or alkyl.
F - Preparation of the compounds of the formula II in which A represents -CO-NRa-SO2- and X represents H or alkyl

Scheme 8
In this scheme, T and P are as defined above for formula III, Y is as defined above for formula I, X represents H or (C Cio) alkyl and alk represents (d-C10)alkyl.
In a first step, the compound of the formula III is reacted with a sulfonyl isocyanate of the formula Y-S02-N=C=0. The reaction conditions recommended for this reaction are those generally described above for the reaction of compound III with the isocyanate Y-N=C=0 (Scheme 7).
The solvent is preferably an aliphatic or aromatic halogenated hydrocarbon as described above, more particularly dichloromethane. Advantageously, from 1 to 1.3 equivalents of the sulfonyl isocyanate are used relative to the compound of the formula III.
It is preferable to perform the process in the presence of a base, such as triethylamine and more generally such as one of those described above. Compound XVI is obtained at the end of this step.
After deprotection of the amino function of compound XVI, a compound II is isolated in which Ra represents a hydrogen atom.
As a variant, compound XVI may be subjected to an alkylation reaction before deprotection of the amino function, which leads to the intermediate compound of the formula XVII.
When X represents H in compound XVI, and in order to prepare a compound XVII in which X represents H, it may be necessary, before alkylation, to temporarily protect the amino function directly linked to the phenyl nucleus of the diphenylamine XVI. Immediately after alkylation, the amino function is deprotected, which gives the desired compound XVII.
This compound is subjected to a deprotection reaction to obtain the expected compound of the formula II in which A represents -CO-NRa-S02- in which Ra represents alkyl.
G - Preparation of the compounds of the formula II in which A represents -CO-, -SO2- or -CO-NRa- (preferably -CO- or SO2) and X represents H or alkyl.

Scheme 9
In the above scheme, Y-S02-hal is as defined above for Scheme 5;
Y-CO-Z is as defined above for Scheme 1 ; and in Y-NRa-CO-Z', Y and Ra are as defined above for formula I and Z' has one of the meanings given above for Z (Scheme 5). Res-CHO denotes a resin functionalized with formyl groups.
In a first step, compound IX is reacted with the resin under conditions suitable for promoting the reductive amination reaction of a formyl group of the resin. These conditions vary according to the type of resin used.
Advantageously, a solution of compound IX and of the resin is prepared in an aliphatic halogenated hydrocarbon in the presence of a protic acid such as acetic acid, and a hydride such as sodium triacetoxyborohydride is then added to this mixture.
In a second step, the resulting functionalized resin is reacted with Y-CO-Z, Y-S02-hal or Y-NRa-CO-Z' under the conventional conditions and in particular in the presence of a base such as that generally recommended above for Scheme 1.
When Z or Z' represents OH, it is desirable to perform the process in the presence of a coupling agent (such as bis(2-oxo-3-oxazoIidinyl)phosphonyl chloride as described above for Scheme 1. In a third step, the secondary amine of the diphenylamine is the protected and the resin is removed. This is generally carried out by the action of a strong acid such as trifluoroacetic acid. The appropriate conditions depend both on the nature of the resin used and on the type of protecting group present in the molecule. As a type of resin which may be used, mention may be made of the resin Argopore MB-CHO sold by the company Argonaut.
After step 3, a compound of the formula II is isolated in which X = H, which is readily converted into a compound II in which X = alkyl, conventionally by selective protection of the secondary amine function of the diphenylamine, followed by alkylation and finally deprotection of the amine function.

Not only may the compounds of the formula II above be used as intermediates in the synthesis of the compounds of the formula I, but also they have antioxidant activity which makes them capable of limiting the destructive activity of oxidative free-radical species.
The antioxidant activity of the compounds of the formula II is revealed in vitro, for example, by evaluating the ability of the compounds of the formula II to prevent the oxidation of human low molecular weight lipoproteins.
In the test carried out, the human low molecular weight lipoproteins are oxidized with cupric ions for 24 hours at 37°C. The B apoprotein borne by these lipoproteins becomes fluorescent on oxidation (excitation at 360 nm, emission at 460 nm). In the presence of the compounds of the formula II, a decrease in fluorescence is noted, which reflects the antioxidant power of the compounds of the formula II. The results are expressed in the form of a 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50). The IC50 values measured in the case of a certain number of compounds of the formula II are given in the following table:

Example 252
The compounds of the invention increase the nitric oxide level.
A solution of a compound of the invention spontaneously releases nitric oxide. The nitrite ions resulting therefrom are titrated by colorimetry by means of a specific reagent (Griess). To take account of any release of nitrate ions in addition to the nitrite ions, bacterial nitrate reductase is added to the reaction medium to allow the nitrate ions formed to be reduced.
The reactions and measurements are carried out in transparent 96- well plates. The test products are dissolved at the time of use to a concentration of 3 mM in dimethyl sulfoxide. 95 μ\ of a reagent containing nitrate reductase
(0.18U/ml in 100 mM pH 7.5 PBS buffer, 210 μM -NADPH, 5 /M FAD) and 5 μl of a solution of the test product (final concentration of 150 μM) are then added to each well. After stirring, the mixture is left to incubate for 4 hours at 37°C. The reaction is then quenched by addition of 100 μl of the Griess reagent (Sigma
G4410). The reagent is allowed to act for 5 minutes at room temperature and the optical density is then read at 540 nm. This value is proportional to the concentration of nitrites + nitrates in the medium. A calibration range is made for each plate using NaN02. The results are expressed as μmol/l (μM) of nitrites+nitrates released, in Table 5 below.
The compounds of the invention reduce the biological activity of oxidative free-radical species.
Human LDLs dissolved in aqueous solution in the presence of cupric ion become spontaneously oxidized on their protein component, apolipoprotein B. This oxidation makes the particle fluorescent, which is exploited to measure a pharmacological effect.
The reactions and measurements are carried out in black 96-well plates. 10 μl of a solution of the test product dissolved in dimethyl sulfoxide are first mixed with 170 μl of a solution of human LDL at 120 μg/ml and 20 μl of 100 μM CuCI2. After stirring, the mixture is left to incubate for 2 hours at 37°C, and a first fluorescence reading is taken (excitation at 360 nm, reading at 460 nm). The mixture is then left to incubate for a further 22 hours, to take a second reading under the same conditions. The difference between the two values obtained is the measurement of the oxidation of the LDLs in solution. This difference is proportionately smaller the greater the antioxidant power of the test product. Probucol is used as reference product at 10 μM.
The concentrations which inhibit the oxidation by 50% (IC50) are produced from 3 product concentrations. They are given in Table 8 below.
