The compounds of the present invention are useful in the treatment of diseases or pathological conditions in which endothelial dysfunction is known to be a pathogenic and/or aggravating mechanism. Such pathologies are: atherosclerosis, the existence of vascular risk factors (dyslipidaemia, diabetes, systemic arterial hypertension), the various clinical forms of myocardial or peripheral ischaemia, cardiac insufficiency and the various forms of pulmonary arterial hypertension. The said compounds are also useful in the treatment of patients undergoing heart transplantation or vascular repermeabilisation such as a bypass, thrombolysis or arterial dilatation with or without a stent.
A reduction in the vascular availability of nitrogen monoxide (NO) constitutes the major mechanism of endothelial dysfunction observed in the diseases and pathological conditions mentioned above and explains its pathogenic role (Cardiovasc. Res., 1999, 43, 572; Coronary. Art. Dis. 1999, 10, 277; Coronary. Art. Dis., 1999, 10 301; Coronary. Art. Dis., 1999, 10, 287; Coronary. Art. Dis., 1999, 10, 295).
In the said pathological conditions, the endothelial dysfunction may in fact result from two main mechanisms: 1) inadequate production of NO associated with inhibition of endothelial NO synthase by endogenous inhibitors such as ADMA (asymmetric dimethyl-arginine), the plasma concentration of which increases in patients exhibiting cardiovascular risk factors (Cardiovasc. Res., 1999, 43, 542; Hypertension, 1997, 29, 242; Circulation, 1997, 95, 2068), 2) inactivation of the NO by the superoxide anion (O2−), the production of which is increased in pathological conditions (Cardiovasc. Res., 1999, 43, 562; Eur. J. Biochem. 1997, 245, 541; J. Clin. Invest., 1993, 91 2546).
Step 1: 1-{1-[2-(Benzofuran-3-yl)ethyl]-4-piperidyl}-1-(2,2-dimethoxyethyl)-3-phenylurea
6 mmol of phenyl isocyanate are added to a mixture of 6 mmol of the compound of Preparation 9 and 3.14 ml of diisopropylethylamine in 72 ml of dichloromethane. After stirring for 12 hours at ambient temperature and dilution with water, the organic phase is washed with water, dried, filtered and then concentrated under reduced pressure, allowing the expected product to be obtained.
Step 2: 1-{1-[2-(Benzofuran-3-yl)ethyl]-4-piperidyl}-3-phenyl-1,3-dihydro-2H-imidazol-2-one and its Hydrochloride
