95/14670 PcT~S94/1257s In general, in Scheme A, step a, an appropriate acid chloride of structure (l), known analogously in the art [P.
Leeson, European Patent Application No. 0 303 387, published Feb. 15, 1989], is contacted with an appropriate alcohol to 5 give an ester of structure (2).

An appropriate acid chloride of the structure (l) is one in which Y is as desired in the final product of the Formula I. An appropriate alcohol of the structure HOR is one which l0 gives rise to compounds of Formula I in which Ql is -OR as desired in the final product of Formula I or gives rise to a Ql as desired in the final product of Formula I.

For example, an appropriate acid chloride of structure 15 (l) is contacted with an appropriate alcohol. The reaction may be carried out in a suitable solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide, or the appropriate alcohol may be used as the solvent. The use of the appropriate alcohol as the solvent is preferred. The 20 reaction is carried out in the presence of a suitable base, such as triethylamine, diisopropylethylamine, sodium carbonate, or sodium bicarbonate. The reaction requires from l to 8 hours. The product is isolated and purified by techniques well known in the art, such as evaporation in 25 vocuo, extraction, chromatography with a suitable organic eluant, and recrystallization to give an ester of structure (2).

In Scheme A, step b, an ester of structure (2) is 30 debenzylated to give a l,4-dihydroquinol-4-one of structure (3).

For example, a compound of structure (2) is contacted with a suitable debenzylating agent, such as trifluoroacetic 35 acid, at a temperature that is sufficient to remove the benzyl group but not degrade the starting material or product. The preferred temperature is 70~C to 80~C when the wogs/14670 2 1 77 1 4S PCT~S94/12575 debenzylating agent is trifluoroacetic acid. The product is isolated and purified by techniques well known in the art, such as evaporation in uacuo, chromatography with a suitable organic eluant, and recrystallization to give a compound of 5 structure (3).
In Scheme A, step c, a l,4-dihydroquinol-4-one of structure (3) is contacted with an appropriate benzenesulfonyl isocyanate to a heterocyclic l0 benzenesulfonylimine of Formula I in which A is NH.
An appropriate benzenesulfonyl isocyanate is one in which Z is as desired in the final product of the Formula I
in which A is NH.

For example, a 1,4-dihydroquinol-4-one of structure (3) is contacted with an from l to 2 molar equivalents of an appropriate benzenesulfonyl isocyanate. The reaction is carried out in a suitable solvent, such as acetonitrile or propionitrile at temperatures of 20~ C to the refluxing 20 temperature of the solvent. The product is isolated and purified by techniques well known in the art, such as evaporation in vacuo, chromatography with a suitable organic eluant, and recrystallization to give a compound of Formula I in which A is NH.
In Scheme A, optional step d, an appropriate compound of Formula I is contacted with an appropriate amine to give a compound of Formula I in which Q1 is -NRlR2 and A is NH.
An appropriate compound of Formula I is one in which Q
is -OR, R is a C1-C6 alkyl, A is NH and Y and Z are as desired in the final product of the Formula I. An appropriate amine of the structure, HNRlR2 gives a compound of Formula I in which Q1 is -NR1R2 as desired in the final product of Formula I in which A is NH.

For example, an appropriate compound of Formula I is contacted with an appropriate amine in a suitable solvent, - WOg5/14670 PCT~S94/12575 such as methanol, ethanol, water, or dioxane. The reaction vessel may be sealed to prevent the escape of volatile amines from the reaction vessel. The reaction is carried out at temperatures from ambient temperature to the refluxing temperature of the solvent. The product is recovered by techniques well known in the art, such as extraction, evaporation in vacuo, chromatography with a suitable organic eluant, and recrystallization.

In Scheme A, optional step e, an appropriate compound of Formula I is hydrolyzed to give a compound of Formula I
in which Ql is -OH and A is NH.

An appropriate compound of Formula I is one in which Ql is -OR, R is a Cl-C6 alkyl, A is NH and Y and Z are as desired in the final product of the Formula I.

For example, an appropriate compound of Formula I is contacted with a suitable base, such as lithium hydroxide or 20 sodium hydroxide. The reaction is carried out in a suitable solvent, such as water, tetrahydrofuran, methanol, water/tetrahydrofuran mixtures, and water/methanol mixtures.
The reactants are typically stirred together for a period of time ranging from 2-24 hours and at a temperature range of 25 from room temperature to reflux. The compound of Formula I
in which Ql is -OH and A is NH is recovered from the reaction zone by acidification followed by filtration and may be purified by recrystallization as is known in the art.

Interleukin-l (IL-l) consists of two polypeptides, termed IL-l~ and IL-l~,that belong to a family of cytokines that also includes tumor necrosis factor (TNF~) and IL-6.
These cytokines have overlapping biological properties, including the ability to stimulate T and B lymphocytes and 10 to effect the expression of proteins involved in many immunological and inflammatory responses.

Agents which inhibit IL-l action may do so by several mechanisms including: inhibition of IL-l production by 15 inhibition of the expression, synthesis, or release of IL-l;
antagonism at an IL-l receptor; inhibition of the IL-l induced amplification of IL-l production; or inhibition of IL-l induced production of other cytokines; etc.

It is known, for example, that IL-l is produced by 20 epithelial cells and stimulates fibroblast proliferation and release of proteolytic enzymes (e.g. collagenase) and prostaglandins in inflammatory processes, i.e. rheumatoid arthritis. See Durom, S. K.; Schmidt, J. A.; Oppenheim, J.
J.; Interleukin 1: an Immunological Per~e~live , Ann. Rev. Immunol. 3, 5 263-287 (1985), Otterness, I. G.; Bliven, M. L.; Downs, J.
T.; Natoli, E. J.; Hanson, D. C.; InhibitionofInterleukin- 1 Synthesis by Tenidap: a New Drug forArthritis, Cytokine, 3, 277-283 (1991), and Miyasaka, N.; Sato, K.; Goto, M.; Sasano, M.;
Natsuyma, M.; Inoue, K.; and Nishioks, K., Augmented 30 Interleukin-1 Production and HL,A-DR Expression in the Synouium of Rheumatoid Arthritis Patients, Arthritis and Rheumatism, 31, 480-486 (1988). Thus agents which inhibit IL-l action would be useful in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.
35 It has also been shown that IL-l may affect the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis directly, by stimulating smooth muscle cell proliferation or, indirectly, through the - ~oss/14670 2 1 7 7 1 4 6 PCT~S94/12S7S

action of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF). See Jackson, R. L. and Ku, G., Interleukin-1~, itsRoleinthePathogenesis of Atherosclerosis and Agents that Inhibit its Action, Current Druqs:
Anti-atherosclerotic Aqents, pp 831-B42 (October 1991).
5 In addition, Tenidap, an agent known to block IL-l production, reduces the total level of serum cholesterol, serum LDL cholesterol and serum triglycerides in a mammal having an arthritic condition for which Tenidap is being administered. See U.S. Patent No. 5,122,534 (February 8, 10 1991). Thus agents which inhibit IL-l action may also be useful in the prophylactic treatment of atherosclerosis.

In addition, it has also been postulated that macrophages infiltrating the pancreatic islets may play a 15 role in the destruction of ~-cells and that cytokines, in particular IL-l, released locally from the macrophages may be the toxic molecules causing ~-cell destruction in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). See Sandler, S., Eizirik, D., Svensson, C., Strandell, E., Welsh, M. and 20 Welsh, N., Biochemical and MolecularAction of Interleukin l on Pancreatic ~-Cells, Autoimmunity, 10, 241-253 (1991). Thus agents which inhibit IL-l action may also be useful in the treatment of diabetes mellitus.
A correlation has also been shown between increased IL-l 25 production and the clinical course of multiple sclerosis (MS). It has been demonstrated that there is a significant increase in IL-la production by cultured blood mononuclear cells for patients with MS, with patients in the active phase of relapsing MS showing the greatest increase in IL-la 30 production. See Matsuda, M., Tsukada, N., Miyagi, K., and Yanagisawa, N., Increased Interleukin-l production by peripheral blood mononuclearcells in patients with multiple sclerosis, Journal of the Neuroloqical Sciences, 102, 100-104 (1991). Thus agents which inhibit IL-l action may also be useful in the 35 treatment of multiple sclerosis.

WO95/14670 PCT~S94/12575 Studies have also shown that IL-l receptor antagonists might be useful for the treatment of incipient or established pulmonary fibrosis. See Piguet, P., Vesin, C., Grau, G., Thompson, R., Interleukin-1 ReceptorAntagonist ~IL-l ra) 5 Prevents or Cures Pulmonary Fibrosis Flicited in Mice By Bleomycin or Silica, Cytokine, 5, 57-61 (1993). Thus agents which inhibit IL-l action may also be useful in the treatment of pulmonary fibrosis.

It has also been suggested that IL-l receptor antagonists may play a role in reducing mortality from septic shock. See Ohlsson, K., Bjork, P., Bergenfeldt, M., Hageman, R., and Thompson, R., Interleukin-l ReceptorAntagonist Re~cesMortalityfromEndotoxinShock, Nature, 348, 550-552 15 (l990). Thus agents which inhibit IL-l action may also be useful in the treatment of septic shock.
The compounds of Formula I inhibit IL-l action. One mechanism for inhibiting IL-l action is to inhibit IL-l production. Inhibition of IL-l production was tested using 20 lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulated macrophages. Inhibition of IL-l induced production of cytokines was tested by measuring the inhibition of TNF~ (tumor necrosis factor alpha) synthesis from IL-l stimulated macrophages, The protocols for these test procedures are described below.

.i Endotoxin-Induced Interleukin-l Beta Release by ~uman Macrophaqes 30 Obiective The objective of this test is to determine the inhibitory concentrations for the test compounds against endotoxin-induced interleukin-l beta (IL-l~) release (production) by human peripheral blood monocyte-derived macrophages.
Source The source of the human peripheral blood monocyte-derived macrophages is as follows:

'~095/14670 PCT~S94/12S75 Venous blood is collected from healthy volunteers in 10 mM
sodium citrate (2 mL sterile sodium citrate for 40 mL
blood). Mononuclear cells are isolated with the Leucoprep 5 tubes (Becton Dickenson, product number 2752 or 2751) spun at 1500 g for 15 minutes. Aliquots of 3 x 106 mononuclear cells are added to 24-well tissue culture plates (Corning) in RPMI-1640. After one hour incubation at 37~C, non-adherent cells are gently rinsed off. The adherent cells 10 (macrophages) are given back fresh medium RPMI-1640, 1 mL/well.

Procedure Macrophage monolayer cultures are pretreated with compounds one hour prior to endotoxin (20 ng/mL, Salmonella 15 typhimurium, Re-mutant, from Ribi Immuchem.) stimulation.
Compounds dissolved in 95% ethanol or DMSO would require additional monolayer cultures treated with 10 or 2.5 ~1 95 ethanol or DMSO, respectively. Culture supernatants are collected 24 hours later and are tested for IL-lB using a 20 commercial ELISA kit (Cistron).

AnalysisofResults The IL-lB concentration in the culture supernatant is calculated by a standard curve generated from a series of known concentrations. Potency of compound is 25 reported in IC50 (~M).

WO95/14670 2 1 7 7 1 4 6 PCT~Sg4/12575 The compounds of the present invention may be administered by a variety of routes. They are effective if administered orally. The compounds may also be administered 5 parenterally (i.e. subcutaneously, intravenously, intramuscularly, intraperitoneally, or intrathecally).

In order to exhibit these therapeutic properties, the compounds need to be administered in a quantity sufficient to inhibit IL-l action. The dosage range at which these compounds exhibit this inhibitory effect can vary widely depending upon the particular disease being treated, the severity of the patient's disease, the patient, the particular compound being administered, the route of administration, and the presence of other underlying disease states within the patient, etc. Typically the compounds exhibit their therapeutic effect at a dosage range of from about O.l mg/kg/day to about 50 mg/kg/day for any of the diseases or conditions listed above.
Pharmaceutical compositions can be manufactured utilizing techniques known in the art. Typically an effective amount of the compound will be admixed with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
For oral administration, the compounds can be formulated into solid or liquid preparations such as capsules, pills, tablets, lozenges, melts, powders, suspensions, or emulsions. Solid unit dosage forms can be capsules of the 30 ordinary gelatin type containing, for example, surfactants, lubricants and inert fillers such as lactose, sucrose, and cornstarch or they can be sustained release preparations.
In another embodiment, the compounds of Formula I can be 35 tableted with conventional tablet bases such as lactose, sucrose, and cornstarch in combination with binders, such as acacia, cornstarch, or selatin, disintegrating agents such as potato starch or alginic acid, and a lubricant such as ~~~Og5/14670 PCT~S94/~2575 stearic acid or magnesium stearate. Liquid preparations are prepared by dissolving the active ingredient in an aqueous or non-aqueous pharmaceutically acceptable solvent which may also contain suspending agents, sweetening agents, flavoring 5 agents, and preservative agents as are known in the art.
For parenteral administration the compounds may be dissolved in a physiologically acceptable pharmaceutical carrier and administered as either a solution or a lO suspension. Illustrative of suitable pharmaceutical carriers are water, saline, dextrose solutions, fructose solutions, ethanol, or oils of animal, vegetative, or synthetic origin. The pharmaceutical carrier may also contain preservatives, buffers, etc., as are known in the 15 art.
As used in this application:
a) the "patient" refers to warm blooded animals such as, for example guinea pigs, mice, rats, cats, rabbits, dogs, monkeys, chimpanzees, and human;

b) the term "treat" refers to the ability of the compounds to either relieve, alleviate, or slow the progression of the patient's disease.
c) the term "an effective amount" refers to an amount which is effective, upon single or multiple dose administration to the patient, in inhibiting IL-l action.

The compounds of this invention can also be administered topically.
