A class of imidazo[1,2-a]pyridinylalkyl compounds is described for treatment to reduce neurotoxic injury associated with anoxia or ischemia which typically follows stroke, cardiac arrest or perinatal asphyxia. The treatment includes administration of a compound of this class alone or in a composition in an amount effective as an antagonist to inhibit excitotoxic actions at major neuronal excitatory amino acid receptor sites. Compounds of most interest are those of the formula:
wherein each of R22, R23 and R24 is independently selected from hydrido, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl and cycloheptyl; wherein each of Ym and Yn is a spacer group independently selected methylene and ethylene radicals which may be unsubstituted and from methylene radicals which may be substituted with a group selected from halo, hydroxy and oxo; wherein each of m and n is a number independently selected from zero to two, inclusive; wherein each X and T is one or more groups independently selected from hydrido, alkyl, cycloalkyl, halo, haloalkyl, hydroxy, hydroxyalkyl, alkoxy, alkoxyalkyl and alkanoyl; or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof.
描述了一类咪唑并[1,2-a]吡啶烷基化合物,用于治疗减少与缺氧或缺血相关的神经毒性损伤,这种损伤通常发生在中风、心脏骤停或围产期窒息之后。治疗方法包括单独施用或在组合物中施用该类化合物,施用量为有效的拮抗剂,以抑制主要神经元兴奋性氨基酸受体部位的兴奋毒性作用。最令人感兴趣的化合物是式中的化合物:
其中 R22、R23 和 R24 各自独立地选自肼、甲基、乙基、正丙基、异丙基、正丁基、异丁基、仲丁基、叔丁基、环丙基、环丁基、环戊基、环己基和环庚基;其中 Ym 和 Yn 各自是一个间隔基团,该间隔基团独立地选自可能未被取代的亚甲基和亚乙基,以及可能被选自卤代、羟基和氧代的基团取代的亚甲基;其中每个 m 和 n 是独立选自 0 至 2(包括 2)的数字;其中每个 X 和 T 是一个或多个独立选自氢基、烷基、环烷基、卤基、卤代烷基、羟基、羟基烷基、烷氧基、烷氧基烷基和烷酰基的基团;或其药学上可接受的盐。
