Kynurenic acid derivatives useful in the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders

4-Oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline compounds having a 2-acidic group or a group convertible thereto in vivo, and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, are potent specific antagonists of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors and are therefore useful in the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders. 4-Oxo-1,4-dihydroquinoline compounds having a 2-acidic group or a group convertible thereto in vivo, other than carboxy or C 1-6 alkoxycarbonyl, are novel compounds, as also are compounds of formula II STR1 wherein R 2 represents carboxy or a group convertible thereto in vivo, R 6 is hydrogen and R 5 and R 7 represent C 1-6 alkyl or halogen, provided that R 5 and R 7 are not simultaneously chlorine or simultaneously bromine; a process for preparing the novel compounds is described, as also are pharmaceutical compositions containing the novel compounds.

Arrhenius parameters have been measured for the reactions of picryl chloride with the following substituted anilines in acetonitrile: 3-amino- and 3-methyl-aniline, 3-amino-5-nitroaniline, 3-fluoro-5-methylsulphonylaniline, 3-X-5-methylanilines (X=NO2, OMe, CH3, F, Cl, Br, or I) and 3,5-X2-anilines (X = F, Cl, Br, or I).A total of 33 3,5-disubstituted anilines have now been examined for the additivity of substituent effects on the free energy of activation, and it has been shown that with the exception of 3-amino-5-nitroaniline this hypothesis reproduces experimental rate constants within a factor of 2.A rationalization is proposed for the deviations that occur in some cases when more stringent criteria of additivity are used.
