Thiazoles having the aminohydroxypropoxy substituent in the 2-position with an aminocarbonyl, formamido, substituted oxycarbonyl amino group in the 4 or 5-position, are known and taught to have S-adrenergic blocking activity (U.S.3,897,411). Thiazoles having the following formula
are known and are taught to be β-adrenergic blocking agents. (U.S. 3,897,442). Thiazoles of the formula
are known and are taught to block β-adrenergic receptors (U.S. 3,932,400).

[0011] The formula I compounds have a chiral center (at the 2 carbon in the propoxy substituent) which confers optical activity.

[0015] The thiazoles of the present invention have β-adrenergic blocking activity. This was determined in an in-vivo test using dogs as the test animals. In this test, representative thiazole compounds, were found to counteract the a-adrenergic stimulating effect of isoproterenol.
[0016] Certain of the present thiazoles also exhibit an antihypertensive effect of immediate onset when administered to a spontaneously hypertensive (SH) rat. Representative of such compounds are those having the formula
and
[0018] The present thiazole compounds will effect β-adrenergic blockade in humans. This β-adrenergic blocking effect is useful in the therapeutic treatment of various cardiovascular conditions such as angina pectoris, arrhythmia etc. In administering these formula I compounds for their P-adrenergic blocking effect, the daily dosage may range from about 1.5 mg. to about 3000 mg. Preferred daily dosages are about 6.5 mg. to about 200 mg. Conventional dosage forms suitable for oral as well as parenteral, e.g. intravenous, intraperitoneal etc., administration are used. Oral dosage forms include tablets, capsules, troches, liquid formulations e.g. solutions, emulsions, elixirs, etc. - parenteral dosage forms include liquid formulations especially solutions. The compositions are prepared using conventional procedures and compounding ingredients such as starch, sterile water, flavoring additivies, antioxidants, binders, vegetable oils, sweetening agents, glycerine and the like.
[0019] Thiazoles which exhibit the immediate onset antihypertensive activity are useful for treating hypertensive humans at daily dosages ranging from about 100 to about 3000 mg. administered in oral or parenteral dosage forms.
[0021] One such process involves the coupling of a suitably substituted thiazole with a suitably substituted oxazolidine and hydrolyzing the reaction product obtained. This process is illustrated by the following set of reaction equations:
Z is an alkyl or arylsulfonyl group. Examples of sulfonyl groups are CH3-SO2-, C6H5-SO2-, NO2-C6H4SO2-, p-CH3-C6H4-SO2-, mesitylene-SO2-, CH3O-C6H4-SO2-, trichlorobenzene-SO2-, C16H33-SO2- and the like. Suitable bases are alkali metal bases such as K2CO3, K-O-C(CH3)3, NaH, organolithiums e.g. phenyllithium, n-butyllithium, lithium diisopropyl amide and the like.
[0022] R6 is hydrogen or other C1-C12 alkyl or C6-C12 carbocyclic aryl residue of any suitable v aldehyde
Examples of suitable aldehydes are the aryl aldehydes such as benzaldehyde, naphthaldehyde 4-phenylbenzaldehyde, furfural, bromobenzaldehyde, tolualdehyde, mesitaldehyde and the like, or an alkanal such as acetaldehyde, butyraldehyde,
and the like. The process for preparing oxazolidines where Z is hydrogen (and a related coupling reaction) is disclosed in U.S. 3,718,647 and U.S. 3,657,237 and to the extent necessary the pertinent disclosure is incorporated herein by reference.
[0023] The coupling reaction can be carried out at temperatures ranging from about 0°C. to about 130°C. A temperature range of about 50°C. to about 130°C is preferred. The reaction is generally carried out in a solvent. Any suitable solvent may be used. Examples of useful solvents are dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide, hexamethylphosphoramide, tert. butanol, dioxane, toluene, acetone and the like. The hydrolysis is carried out using a conventional acid system e.g. by treatment with a solution of any suitable acid such as HC1, H2S04, CH3COOH and the like. The hydrolysis product can be directly obtained as the salt of the acid used for the hydrolysis. Ordinarily, the product IA is recovered as the free base after conventional neutralization of the salt.
[0024] The coupling reaction is ordinarily carried out at atmospheric pressure. Higher pressures may be used if desired.
[0025] When a racemic oxazolidine (formula V) is used as a reactant, the product is obtained as a racemate. The racemate may be separated into its individual enantiomers by conventional resolution techniques.
[0026] When R6 in the oxazolidine (e.g. formula V or VI) is other than hydrogen, in addition to the chiral center at oxazolidine position 5 there is a second chiral center at position 2. However, whenever an oxazolidine is designated e.g. as (S), (R) or (R,S), this designation refers only to the optical configuration around the carbon atom at the 5 position.
[0027] By using a single optical isomer of the formula V oxazolidine in the above reaction the thiazole product (IA) may be obtained directly as a single enantiomer. This provides a convenient way for directly preparing individual isomers of the present thiazoles.
[0028] Thiazoles represented by formula I wherein R is other than hydrogen are conveniently prepared by treating the corresponding thiazole where R is hydrogen with an appropriate acylating agent such as an acyl halide, e.g. undecanoyl chloride, pivaloyl chloride, benzoylchloride, p-methoxybenzoyl chloride, an anhydride e.g. acetic anhydride and the like. The reaction is illustrated by the following equation:
[0029] The compounds of the present invention also include the pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the novel thiazoles. These salts are conveniently prepared e.g. by treating the thiazole with an appropriate amount of a useful acid, generally in a suitable solvent.
[0030] Additional processes for preparing thiazoles with certain other substituents are illustrated by the following equation sequences. Conventional reaction conditions are employed. The symbol L represents the -CH2-CHOR-CH2-NR1 group.
[0031] The thiazoles having an alkylsulfinyl or alkylsulfonyl substituent are prepared by oxidizing the corresponding C1-C6 alkylthio containing compound. Any suitable oxidizing agent, e.g. H202, may be used. The following equation illustrates the reaction
[0032] The 4-OH substituted thiazole intermediates used in the oxazolidine coupling reaction described above are prepared using conventional processes illustrated by the following equations:
[0033] The following examples illustrate preparation of representative thiazoles of the present invention. All temperatures are in °C.
