Synthesis and pharmacological activity of triazolo[1,5-a]triazine derivatives inhibiting eosinophilia.
In continuation of our previous work on eosinophilia inhibitors, we synthesized an additional series of inhibitors, which consisted of 5-amino-1-[(methylamino)thiocarbonyl]-1H-1,2,4-triazole derivatives and a newly developed series of 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazine derivatives. We evaluated their inhibitory activity on the airway eosinophilia model, which was induced by the intravenous (iv) injection of Sephadex particles. In the 1,2,4-triazole series with various substituents at the 3 position of the triazole ring such as 2-furyl, pyridyl, and phenoxy, none of derivatives had comparable activity to the previously reported compound GCC-AP0341, 5-amino-3-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-[(methylamino)thiocarbonyl]-1H-1,2, 4-triazole. In the triazolo[1,5-a]triazine series, 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-6-methyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]-1,3, 5-triazine-7(6H)-thione (3h) was highly potent, and when given orally it had an ID50 value of 0.3 mg/kg, which is comparable to that of GCC-AP0341. The fact that the structure-activity relationship of these two series was quite similar suggests that a common substructure, such as the 1,2,4-triazole ring with a substituted phenyl ring at the 3 position and a thiocarbonyl moiety at the 1 position, could contribute to the activity. Our selected compound 3h was less active than GCC-AP0341 in the antigen-induced hyper-responsiveness model in guinea pigs; however, we plan to carry out further studies on eosinophil functions, especially on their activation, using our two compounds, 3h and GCC-AP0341.[1]References
