Es ist bereits bekannt geworden, Polyäther, die aus Äthylenoxid- und Propylenoxidgruppierungen bestehen, herzustellen (vgl. US-Patent 2 674 619). Es ist ebenfalls bekannt, daß Polyoxialkylene mit Molgewichten von ca. 1000 bis ca. 11 000 oberflächenaktive Eigenschaften besitzen und darüberhinaus auch in pharmazeutischen Zubereitungen Verwendung finden können. In der US-Patentschrift 3 641 240 wird die Verwendung von Polyoxialkylenen mit einem Molekulargewicht von ca. 2000 bis 10 000 und einem Äthylenoxidgehalt von 50 bis 90 % als Antithrombotika beansprucht und beschrieben. In dieser Patentschrift wird ausdrücklich darauf hingewiesen, daß das anzuwendende Polyoxialkylen mindestens 50 % Äthylenoxid enthalten soll.It has already become known to produce polyethers consisting of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide groups (see US Pat. No. 2,674,619). It is also known that polyoxyalkylenes with molecular weights of approx. 1000 to approx. 11,000 have surface-active properties and can also be used in pharmaceutical preparations. US Pat. No. 3,641,240 claims and describes the use of polyoxyalkylenes with a molecular weight of approximately 2000 to 10,000 and an ethylene oxide content of 50 to 90% as antithrombotics. In this patent it is expressly pointed out that the applicable Polyoxyalkylene should contain at least 50% ethylene oxide.

In dem US-Patent 3 202 578 werden Polyoxialkylene beschrieben, die als Laxantia Verwendung finden können. In dieser Patentschrift wird neben der laxierenden Wirkung auch eine Wirkung auf die Cholesterinsenkung im Blut erwähnt. Nach den Ausführungen dieser Patentschrift sind solche Polyoxialkylene besor.ders als cholesterinsenkende Verbindungen geeignet, die ein Molekulargewicht von 7500 besitzen und 80 % Äthylenoxid enthalten.U.S. Patent 3,202,578 describes polyoxyalkylenes which can be used as laxatives. In addition to the laxative effect, this patent also mentions an effect on lowering cholesterol in the blood. According to the statements in this patent specification, such polyoxyalkylenes are particularly suitable as cholesterol-lowering compounds which have a molecular weight of 7,500 and contain 80% ethylene oxide.

  • X, Y und Z so gewählt werden, daß ein Molekulargewicht von 3000 bis 5000 resultiert und daß der Propylenoxidanteil 60 bis 80 % und der Äthylenoxidanteil 20 bis 40 % beträgt.
The present invention relates to new polyethers of the general structure

in which
  • X, Y and Z are chosen so that a molecular weight of 3000 to 5000 results and that the propylene oxide content is 60 to 80% and the ethylene oxide content is 20 to 40%.

Von besonderem Interesse sind Polyäther der allgemeinen Struktur (I) mit einem mittleren Molekulargewicht von 4000, einem Propylenoxidanteil von 70 % und einem Äthylenoxidanteil von 30 %.Of particular interest are polyethers of general structure (I) with an average molecular weight of 4000, a propylene oxide content of 70% and an ethylene oxide content of 30%.

Die Herstellung der erfindungsgemäßen Polyäther der allgemeinen Struktur (I) erfolgt, indem man
Propylenglykol in Gegenwart von Alkalihydroxid durch Polyaddition zunächst mit Propylenoxid und danach mit einer entsprechenden Menge Äthylenoxid umsetzt, das Alkalihydroxid dann mit wäßriger Mineralsäure neutralisiert und nach Entwässerung des Polyäthers durch Salzfiltration entfernt.
The polyethers of the general structure (I) according to the invention are prepared by
Propylene glycol in the presence of alkali hydroxide by polyaddition first with propylene oxide and then with a corresponding amount of ethylene oxide, the alkali metal hydroxide is then neutralized with aqueous mineral acid and, after dehydration of the polyether, removed by salt filtration.

Die erfindungsgemäßen Polyäther haben eine enge Molekulargewichtsverteilung.The polyethers according to the invention have a narrow molecular weight distribution.

Die Charakterisierung und Zusammensetzung der polymeren Oxialkylenverbindungen erfolgt analytisch durch Ermittlung des Molekulargewichts aus der Hydroxylzahl. Der Äthylenoxidgehalt wird aus dem H-NMR-Spektrum bestimmt.The characterization and composition of the polymeric oxyalkylene compounds is carried out analytically by determining the molecular weight from the hydroxyl number. The ethylene oxide content is determined from the H-NMR spectrum.

Die erfindungsgemäßen Polyäther zeigen überraschenderweise sehr starke Wirkungen bei der Behandlung von Fett- und Kohlenhydratstoffwechselstörungen. Sie bewirken insbesondere eine Senkung des erhöhten Cholesterins im Serum und im Gewebe und vermindern gleichzeitig eine Hypertriglyceridämie. Die erfindungsgemäßen Verbindungen eignen sich zur Behandlung von Hyperlipoproteinämien, Atherosklerose, Adipositas und zur Behandlung hierdurch ausgelöster Stoffwechselstörungen.The polyethers according to the invention surprisingly show very strong effects in the treatment of fat and carbohydrate metabolism disorders. In particular, they lower the elevated cholesterol in serum and tissue and at the same time reduce hypertriglyceridaemia. The compounds according to the invention are suitable for the treatment of hyperlipoproteinaemia, atherosclerosis, obesity and for the treatment of metabolic disorders triggered thereby.

Es ist als ausgesprochen überraschend zu bezeichnen, daß die erfindungsgemäßen Polyäther der vorliegenden Anmeldung ausgerechnet in diesem Molekulargewichtsbereich von 3 bis 5000, insbesondere 4000, und dem speziellen Propylenoxid/Äthylenoxid-Verhältnis eine so ausgeprägte hypolipidämische Wirkung besitzen. Da die erfindungsgemäßen Verbindungen neben dieser starken Wirkung gleichzeitig sehr gut verträglich sind, stellen sie eine Bereicherung der Pharmazie dar.It is to be described as extremely surprising that the polyethers according to the invention of the present application have such a pronounced hypolipidemic effect in this molecular weight range from 3 to 5000, in particular 4000, and the special propylene oxide / ethylene oxide ratio. Since the compounds according to the invention are at the same time very well tolerated in addition to this strong action, they represent an enrichment of the pharmaceutical industry.

Das Kalium hydroxid wird durch Zugabe von verdünnter Schwefelsäure neutralisiert. Nach der Entwässerung des Polyäthers und destillativer Entfernung von leichtflüchtigen Anteile wird das entstandene Kaliumsulfat durch Filtration entfernt. Das Molekulargewicht des Polyäthers, berechnet aus der OH-Zahl, beträgt 4000, und das Produkt enthält 20,0 Gew. % Aethylenoxid.93.5 g of propylene glycol and 62 g of 50% strength potassium hydroxide solution are placed in a 10 L glass flask with a heating bath, stirrer, reflux condenser, epoxy metering device under nitrogen. Dewatering is carried out by azeotropic or vacuum distillation. Then 4707 g of propylene oxide and then 1200 g of ethylene oxide are polyaddled at 100-120 °. The potassium hydroxide is neutralized by adding dilute sulfuric acid. After dehydration of the polyether and removal of volatile components by distillation, the potassium sulfate formed is removed by filtration. The molecular weight of the polyether, calculated from the OH number, is 4000, and the product contains 20.0% by weight of ethylene oxide.
