Description

O.Z. 00~0~40598 Novel ~-methoxyacrylates, the preparation and use thereof Description The present invention relates to novel ~-methoxy-acrylates, a process for the preparation thereof and the use thereof for controlling di6ea6es.
The Journal of Antibiotics, 32 (1979) 1113 and 36 (1983) 661, and "Cellular Regulation and Malignant Growth", Springer Verlag, Berlin 1985, pages 169-176 describe certain ~-methoxyaclylates, namely strobilurin and oudemansin and derivatives thereof. These compounds are distinguished by a high antifungal and cytostatic activity.
Strobilurins A, B and C and oudemansins A and B
have been isolated from the genera Strobilurus, Oudeman-siella, Xerula, Cyphellopsis, Hydropus and Mycena. All compGunds inhibit the respiration of eukaryotes and thus the growth of fungi and cells. The strobilurins and oudemansins bind reversibly to the bt center of cytochrome b in complex III of the mitochondrial respiratory chain.
It has now been found that ~-methoxyacrylates of the formula I

The compounds of the formula I have two center~
of chirality in the dioxolane ring (only one when R1 = H).
They can therefore occur in vaxious enantiomeric and/or diastereomeric configurations which can be fractionated and isolated in a conventional manner. The fxactionation of the configurational isomers can also expediently be carried out at the stage of intermediates of the formula II Isee below). Fractionation of the configurational isomers is unnecessary for the use of the compounds according to the invention.
Furthermore, the ~-methoxyacrylate group can be in the E or Z configuration. Compounds of the formula I
with the E configuration are preferred.
The compounds of the formula I according to the invention are prepared by reacting an aldehyde of the formula II

( R40 ) 2--O~CH-OCH 3 I I I

in which R4 is a C1~-alkyl radical, in the presence of a base, and, where appropriate, hydrogenating the compounds obtained in this way if R1 is an unsaturated radical.
The reaction of the compounds II with III takes place in the sense of a Wittig-Horner reaction in the presence of a solvent and of a base such as lithium diisopropylamide, phenyllithium, butyllithium, sodium alcoholate, sodamide, sodium hydride or potassium t-butylate.

Particularly suitable as auxiliary base for the reaction V ~ VI are sodium carbonate, potassium car-bonate, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, 1,8-diaza-bicyclo[5,4,0]undec-7-ene, diisopropylmethylamine and diisopropylethylamine. Suitable and preferred 601vents are dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, diethyl ether, methanol, ethanol, acetonitrile and acetone. The reaction V , VI takes place ~atisfactorily at temperatures between 0 and 30C.
The elimination of the THP protective group and cyclization to give the dioxolanes of the formula II i6 then carried out with aldehydes of the formula R1-CH0 in the presence of acid with removal of the water produced in the reaction by distillation. Suitable examples of entraining agents are benzene, toluene and chloroform and - tetrachloromethane.

The test fungus was cultured from a spore suspension to 20a mycelium weight of 10-20 mg wet weight of mycelium/ml. .
The measurements were carried out with a mycelium con-centration of 25-30 mg wet weight of mycelium/ml in 1%
strength glucose solution. After a brief constant course of respiration, the compounds dissolved in methanol 25(0.3 mg/ml) were added to the suspension, and the 2 consumption was recorded. The test was carried out using strobilurin A as comparison compound. The results of the percentage inhibition of respiration are stated in Table 1.

Compound Antiviral aetivity (ng/ml) Example 1 Bl 3 Example 1 B2 3-Control (rHuIFN-~) 0.6 In eontradistinetion to rHuIFN-~, the substance of Exsmple 1 also showed an antiproliferative effeet under these test eonditions by eomparison with the cell eontrol. The antiviral and antiproliferative aetivities of the substances of Example 1 ran in parallel and eorrelated with a morphologieal change in the cells, ie.
the eells were, by eomparison with the eell eontrol, : -: " ~ ~ ~ ' .

EXAMPLE D
Cytotoxic and antiproliferative action on human tumor cells Tumor cells derived from different tissues (5637-6: human bladder carcinoma; HT-29: human colon carcinoma; B-16: murine melanoma) were used to determine the antitumor properties of compounds 1 B1 and 1 B2.
1 to 2 x 103 tumor cells undergoing exponential growth were plated out in complete growth medium (RPMI 1640 x 10% fetal calf serum) in 96-well plates and incubated under standard culture conditions (37C, 5%
carbon dioxide, atmosphere saturated with water vapor) overnight. The substance was added the next day, making up serial titrations of substances 1 B1 and 1 B2 over a concentration range from 10-4 to 10-~ M. After further incubation under standard conditions for 72 h, the cell count was determined by staining with crystal violet and subsequent photometric evaluation at 540 nm using a multiphotometer.
Only at the very high concentration of 10-4 M was cytolysis of the treated cells to be seen under the microscope. At the other concentrations investigated there was found to be a strong, dose-dependent inhibition of cell proliferation so that even at the lowest con-centration investigated of 10-~ M the number of treated cells showed a value of less than 50% of the untreated cell control.
Thi8 great decrease in the proliferative activity of the cells treated with the substances of Example 1 was associated with a morphological change characterized by an elongation of the cell bodies and by the formation of cell pro~ections.
