MUSCARINIC RECEPTOR ANTAGONISTS
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to muscarinic receptor antagonists, which are useful, among
other uses, for the treatment of various diseases of the respiratory, urinary and gastrointestinal
systems mediated through muscarinic receptors. The invention also relates to the processes for the
preparation of the disclosed compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing the disclosed
compounds, and methods for treating diseases mediated through muscarinic receptors. Also provided
herein are pharmaceutical compositions comprising one or more muscarinic receptor antagonists and
at least one other active ingredients including, but not limited to, corticosteroids, beta agonists,
leukotriene antagonists, 5-lipoxygenase inhibitors, antihistamines, antitussives, dopamine receptor
antagonists, chemokine inhibitors, PAF, EGFR, p38 MAP kinase inhibitor and PDE-4 inhibitors.
Background of the Invention
Muscarinic receptors belong to the superfamily of G-protein coupled receptors and five
molecularly distinct subtypes are known to exist (M1, M2, M3, Mt and Ms). These receptors are
widely distributed on multiple organs and tissues and are critical to the maintenance of central and
peripheral cholinergic neurotransmission. The regional distribution of these receptor sub-types in the
brain and other organs has been documented (for example, the M1 subtype is located primarily in
neuronal tissues such as cerebral cortex and autonomic ganglia, the M2 subtype is present mainly in
the heart and bladder smooth muscle, and the M3 subtype is located predominantly on smooth muscle
and salivary glands (Nature, 323, p.411 (1986); Science, 237, p.527 (1987)).
A review in Curr. Opin. Chern. Bioi., 3, p. 426 (1999), as well as in Trends in Pharmacal.
Sci., 22, p.409 (200 1) by Eglen et al., describes the biological potentials of modulating muscarinic
receptor subtypes by ligands in different diseases conditions, such as Alzheimer's diseases, pain,
urinary disease condition, chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, and the like.
The pharmacological and medical aspects of the muscarinic class of acetylcholine agonists
and antagonists are presented in a review in Molecules,§., p.l42 (2001). Birdsall et al. in Trends in
Pharmacal. Sci., 22, p.215 (2001) has also summarized the recent developments on the role of
different muscarinic receptor subtypes using different muscarinic receptor of knock out mice.
Almost all the smooth muscles express a mixed population of M2 and M3 receptors. Although
the Mz-receptor are the predominate cholinoreceptors, the smaller population of M3-receptor appears
to be the most functionally important as they mediate the direct contraction of these smooth muscle.
Muscarinic receptor antagonist are known to be useful for treating various medical conditions
associated with improper smooth muscle function, such as overactive bladder syndrome, irritable
bowel syndrome and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. However, the therapeutic utility of
3
antimuscarinic has been limited by poor tolerability as a result of treatment related, frequent systemic
adverse events such as dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, headache, somnolence and
tachycardia. Thus, there exist needs for novel muscarinic receptor antagonist that demonstrate target
organ selectivity.

systems can be mono-, bi- or tricyclic. Carbonyl or sulfonyl group can replace carbon atom(s) of
heterocyclyl. Unless otherwise constrained by the definition, the substituents are attached to the ring
atom, i.e., carbon or heteroatom in the ring. Also, unless otherwise constrained by the definition, the
heterocyclyl ring optionally may contain one or more olefinic bond(s). Examples ofheterocyclyl
groups includes but are not limited to are tetrahydrofuranyl, dihydrofuranyl, dihydropyridinyl,

"Heteroarylalkyl" refers to alkyl-heteroaryl group linked through alkyl portion, wherein the .
alkyl and heteroaryl are as defined earlier.
"Heterocyclylalkyl" refers to alkyl-heterocyclyl group linked through alkyl portion, wherein
the alkyl and heterocyclyl are as defined earlier.
"Acyl" refers to -C(=O)R¢¢ wherein R¢¢ is selected from hydrogen, alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl,
aralkyl, heteroaryl, heterocyclyl, heteroarylalkyl or heterocyclylalkyl.
The phrase "pharmaceutically acceptable carriers" is intended to include non-toxic, inert
solid, semi-solid or liquid filler, diluent, encapsulating material or formulation auxiliary of any type.

The term "Protecting Groups" is used herein to refer to known moieties, which have the
desirable property of preventing specific chemical reaction at a site on the molecule undergoing
chemical modification intended to be left unaffected by the particular chemical modification. Also
the term protecting group, unless or other specified may be used with groups such as hydroxy,
amino, carboxy and example of such groups are found in T.W. Greene and P.G.M. Wuts, "Protective
Groups in Organic Synthesis", 2"d Edn. John Wiley and Sons, New York, N.Y., which is
incorporated herein by reference. The species of the carboxylic protecting groups, amino protecting
groups or hydroxy protecting group employed is not so critical so long as the derivatised
moiety/moieties is/are stable to conditions of subsequent reactions and can be removed at the
appropriate point without disrupting the remainder of the molecule.
The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salts" refers to derivatives of compounds that can be
modified by forming their corresponding acid or base salts. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts may
also be formed by complete derivatization of the amine moiety, e,g., quaternary ammonium salts.
The compounds described herein exhibit affinity for M3 receptor, as determined by in vitro
receptor binding assay. Pharmaceutical compositions for the possible treatment for the disease or
disorders associated with muscarinic receptors are provided. In addition, the compounds can be
administered orally or parenterally.
The compounds disclosed herein may be prepared by methods represented by the reaction
sequences, shown in Scheme I.
