Compounds of formulae (I)-(IV) may be prepared by synthetic procedures known to those skilled in the art or by methods analogous thereto. These methods are summarized below in Reaction Schemes 1-16.
Reaction Schemes 1 and 2 illustrate general methods useful for the preparation of compounds of formula (I).
In Reaction Scheme 1, a 2-nitrobenzoic acid or derivative of formula (V) is allowed to react with an aromatic amine of formula (VI) to provide the 2-nitrobenzamide of formula (VII). Reduction of the nitro group in (VII) using for example, H2/Pd—C catalyst, provides the 2-aminobenzamide of formula (VIII). The conversion of (VIII) to the formula (I) compound is carried out using either reductive amination using a pyridine or pyrimidine aldehyde of formula (IX) and a reducing agent such as sodium cyanoborohydride, or N-alkylation using a pyridine or pyrimidine methyl halide, tosylate or mesylate of formula (X) and a base.
Reaction Scheme 2 provides an alternative method of preparation of the formula (I) compound starting from an anthranilic acid or anthranilic ester of formula (XI). Alkylation of this starting material with a pyridine or pyrimidine methyl halide, tosylate or mesylate of formula (X) in the presence of a base provides the intermediate of formula (XII), which is then allowed to react with an aromatic amine of formula (IX), giving the compound of formula (I).
Preparation of compounds of formula (II) is illustrated in Reaction Schemes 3 and 4 below.
In Reaction Scheme 3, the compound of formula (XIII) is allowed to react with an aromatic amine of formula (XIV) in the presence of a base (when R″ is Cl) or EDCI (when R″ is OH) to give a chloroamide of formula (XV). This formula (XV) compound is then allowed to react with a 1-pyridin-4-ylmethanamine of formula (XVI), either in the presence of a high boiling inert solvent or neat, to give the product of formula (II).
Reaction Scheme 4 shows the synthesis of compounds of formula (IIa), in which the amine side chain is attached at the 3-position of the central pyridine ring and the carboxamide side chain is attached at the 2-position of the central pyridine ring. The 3-aminopyridinecarboxylic acid or acid chloride of formula (XVII) is allowed to react with the aromatic amine of formula (XIV) in the presence of base (when R″=Cl) or a coupling agent such as EDCI (when R″=OH) to provide the pyridine carboxamide of formula (XVIII). N-alkylation of (XVIII) with a 1-pyridylmethyl halide, tosylate or mesylate of formula (XIX) in the presence of a base such as K2CO3, provides the compound of formula (IIa).
The preparation of compounds of formulae (III) and (IV), represented collectively as
is illustrated in Reaction Scheme 5, starting from the appropriately substituted 2-alkylthio-halopyrimidine carboxylic acids or esters of formula (XX). In this sequence, the compound of formula (XX) more specifically represented by the compound of formula (XXa), is the starting material for preparation of the compound of formula (III). Likewise, the compound of formula (XX) more specifically represented by the compound of formula (XXb), is the starting material for the compound of formula (IV).
In Reaction Scheme 5, the compound of formula (XX) is allowed to react with an aromatic amine of formula (XXI) in the presence of a coupling agent such as EDCI (when R′=H) or Al(Me)3 (when R′=alkyl) to give the amide of formula (XXII). A nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction of (XXII) with the pyridine methylamine of formula (XXIII) in the presence of a base such as K2CO3 and CuO gives the intermediate of formula (XXIV). The 2-alkylthio group present in the compound of formula (XXIV) is removed by a Raney-Nickel desulfurization to give the compounds of formulae (III) or (IV).
Starting materials of Formulae (IX), (X) and (VI) are commercially available (e.g., Lanxess, Germany) or may be prepared by standard means well known in the art, or as described in Reaction Schemes 6-12.
Compounds of Formula (Xa), which corresponds to
Formula (X) where R3 is
and Y is Cl, may be prepared as shown in Reaction Scheme 6 by reaction of an acid chloride with a chloromethyl heteroarylamine of Formula (XXV), generally in the presence of a base such as triethylamine.
Compounds of Formula (Xb), which corresponds to Formula (X) where R3 is
can be prepared as shown in Reaction Scheme 7 from hydroxymethylheteroaryl amines of Formula (XXVI). Protection of the alcohol and conversion to the BOC-derivative of Formula (XXVIII) is followed by N-alkylation to give the intermediate of Formula (XXIX). Deprotection of the alcohol and amine, followed by conversion of the hydroxy group to a leaving group, (for example, using SOCl2, when 1 g is Cl) gives the intermediate of Formula (Xb).
Compounds of Formula (Xc), which corresponds to Formula (X) where R3 is
can be prepared by the route illustrated in Reaction Scheme 8. The chloroheteroarylcarboxylic acid derivative of Formula (XXXI) is reduced to the chloroheteroaryl alcohol of Formula (XXXII) with a standard reagent such as lithium borohydride. Reaction of the chloro compound with an amine of Formula (R1-3)(R1-5)NH gives the intermediate alcohol of Formula (XXXIII). Conversion of this alcohol to a leaving group, e.g. mesylate, completes the synthesis of the compound of Formula (Xc)
Compounds of Formula (Xd), which corresponds to Formula (X) where R3 is
can be prepared as shown in Reaction Scheme 9 from the dicarboxylic acid of Formula (XXXIV) by conversion through the half acid ester (XXXV) to the acid amide of Formula (XXXVI). Esterification of (XXXVI) provides (XXXVII) which can be reduced with sodium borohydride to the alcohol (XXXVIII) and then converted to the Formula (Xd) compound, using for example MsCl and a base such as triethylamine.
An alternate method of preparing the pyridine amide ester of Formula (XXXVII) is via the Minisci reaction shown in Reaction Scheme 10 in which the pyridine carboxylic acid ester is stirred in formamide with cooling to 10° C. in the presence of an equivalent of concentrated H2SO4, FeSO4 and H2O2.
Compounds of Formula (Xe), which corresponds to Formula (X) where R3 is
can be prepared by the route shown in Reaction Scheme 11. Starting from the intermediate of Formula (XXV), the sulfonamide (Xe) may be prepared in a manner analogous to that described for Formula (Xa), by reaction of (XXV) with a sulfonyl chloride in the presence of a base. The bis-sulfonylated compound (XXXX), if formed, may be converted to (Xe) if necessary, by reaction with aqueous base.
Compounds of Formula (Xf), which corresponds to Formula (X) where R3 is
can be prepared by the route shown in Reaction Scheme 12. In the case that the R1-3 on the right is H, the intermediate of Formula (XXV) is allowed to react with an isocyanate of Formula R1-6NCO in an aprotic solvent such as dichloromethane. In the case that the R1-3 on the right is alkyl, or that R1-3 and R1-6 are combined in a cyclic structure, the intermediate of Formula (XXV) is allowed to react with a carbamoyl chloride Formula R1-6 R1-3 NCOCl in an aprotic solvent such as dichloromethane in the presence of a base such as triethylamine or potassium carbonate. The use of a starting material of Formula (XXV) in which the R1-3 on the left is alkyl results in the preparation of a urea of structure Xf where R3 is
in which the R1-3 group on the left is alkyl. In the case that both R1-3 on the right and R1-6 are H, benzoyl isocyanate is reacted with the intermediate of Formula (XXV) to give a protected urea of Formula (Xf). The benzoyl group is removed from the final molecule after combining Xf with the core molecule. In the cases that the isocyanate of Formula R1-6NCO is not commercially available (and R1-3 is H), it can conveniently be prepared by treatment of the amine of Formula R1-6NH2, wherein R1-6 is aryl or heteroaryl, with phosgene, diphosgene or triphosgene in a suitable solvent such as ethyl acetate. When R1-6 is alkyl or substituted alkyl, the preferred method is to treat the corresponding alkyl halide or diallyl sulfate with inorganic cyanates. These methods, as well as others, are well known to those skilled in the art and examples are described in S. R. Sandler and W. Karo “Organic Functional Group Preparations,” vol 12, 2nd ed., p 364-375, 1983, Academic Press and references cited therein. In the cases that the carbamoyl chloride of Formula R1-6 R1-3NCOCl is not commercially available, it can conveniently be prepared by treatment of the amine of Formula R1-6 R1-3NH with phosgene, diphosgene or triphosgene in a suitable solvent such as dichloromethane at 0-4° C. Optionally, the N-benzyl protected amine of Formula R1-6 R1-3NCH2(C5H6) can be reacted with triphosgene as described by M. G. Banwell, et al, J. Org. Chem. 2003, 68, 613-616.
Compounds of Formula (Xg), which corresponds to Formula (X) where R3 is
can be prepared by the route shown in Reaction Scheme 13. The intermediate of Formula (XXXVII), prepared as in Reaction Scheme 7, is allowed to react with benzoyl isothiocyanate, followed by a base such as potassium carbonate, to form the thiourea intermediate of Formula (XXXXI). This thiourea (XXXXI) is then allowed to react with a 2-haloketone of Formula (XXXXII) in the presence of a base, to form the thiazole intermediate of Formula (XXXXIII). Deprotection and conversion of the alcohol to a leaving group, e.g. mesylate, completes the synthesis of the intermediate of Formula (Xg).
A variety of compounds of Formula (I) can be prepared by elaboration of compounds, also of Formula (I), prepared by the above schemes. These elaboration methods are illustrated below in Reaction Schemes 14-17.
For example, the amino compound of Formula (Ia) can be converted to the amide compound of Formula (Ib), the sulfonamide of Formula (Ic) or the urea of Formula (Id) as shown in Reaction Scheme 14, by reaction with an acid chloride, sulfonyl chloride or isocyanate, respectively.
Additionally, the chloro compound of Formula (Ia) can be converted to the substituted amino compound of Formula (If) by reaction with an amine and a base such as pyridine in a sealed tube at elevated temperatures.
Esters of Formula (Ih) and substituted amides of Formula (II) may be prepared from the unsubstituted amide of Formula (Ig) by the sequence illustrated in Reaction Scheme 16. Reaction of the amide (Ig) with dimethylformamide-dimethylacetal in methanol provides the ester of Formula (Ih); reaction of the ester with a substituted amine gives the amide of Formula (II).
Generally, a desired salt of a compound of this invention can be prepared in situ during the final isolation and purification of a compound by means well known in the art. Or, a desired salt can be prepared by separately reacting the purified compound in its free base form with a suitable organic or inorganic acid and isolating the salt thus formed. These methods are conventional and would be readily apparent to one skilled in the art.
Additionally, sensitive or reactive groups on the compound of this invention may need to be protected and deprotected during any of the above methods. Protecting groups in general may be added and removed by conventional methods well known in the art (see, for example, T. W. Greene and P. G. M. Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis; Wiley: New York, (1999).

During this addition small pieces of dry ice were added to the bath to keep the reaction temperature in the desired range. After addition was complete, the ice bath was removed and the dark mixture was stirred for 2 h without cooling and then poured into a solution of trisodium citrate dihydrate (80.6 g) in water (700 mL) and then residues left in the reaction flask were washed out with a little methanol and water. The resulting mixture was rapidly stirred in a large flask as solid NaHCO3 was added slowly, portion-wise, until the mixture was basic. Some saturated aqueous NaHCO3 was added to make the mixture more basic and then it was vacuum filtered through Celite® and the solids were washed down with three 200 mL portions of dichloromethane. The phases of the filtrate were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted twice with dichloromethane. The combined extract was dried (Na2SO4) and evaporated in vacuo.

Suitable emulsifying agents may be (1) naturally occurring gums such as gum acacia and gum tragacanth, (2) naturally occurring phosphatides such as soy bean and lecithin, (3) esters or partial esters derived form fatty acids and hexitol anhydrides, for example, sorbitan monooleate, (4) condensation products of said partial esters with ethylene oxide, for example, polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate. The emulsions may also contain sweetening and flavoring agents.
Oily suspensions may be formulated by suspending the active ingredient in a vegetable oil such as, for example, arachis oil, olive oil, sesame oil or coconut oil, or in a mineral oil such as liquid paraffin. The oily suspensions may contain a thickening agent such as, for example, beeswax, hard paraffin, or cetyl alcohol.

Illustrative of oils which can be used in the parenteral formulations of this invention are those of petroleum, animal, vegetable, or synthetic origin, for example, peanut oil, soybean oil, sesame oil, cottonseed oil, corn oil, olive oil, petrolatum and mineral oil. Suitable fatty acids include oleic acid, stearic acid, isostearic acid and myristic acid. Suitable fatty acid esters are, for example, ethyl oleate and isopropyl myristate. Suitable soaps include fatty acid alkali metal, ammonium, and triethanolamine salts and suitable detergents include cationic detergents, for example dimethyl dialkyl ammonium halides, alkyl pyridinium halides, and alkylamine acetates; anionic detergents, for example, alkyl, aryl, and olefin sulfonates, alkyl, olefin, ether, and monoglyceride sulfates, and sulfosuccinates; non-ionic detergents, for example, fatty amine oxides, fatty acid alkanolamides, and poly(oxyethylene-oxypropylene)s or ethylene oxide or propylene oxide copolymers; and amphoteric detergents, for example, alkyl-beta-aminopropionates, and 2-alkylimidazoline quaternary ammonium salts, as well as mixtures.
The parenteral compositions of this invention will typically contain from about 0.5% to about 25% by weight of the active ingredient in solution. Preservatives and buffers may also be used advantageously. In order to minimize or eliminate irritation at the site of injection, such compositions may contain a non-ionic surfactant having a hydrophile-lipophile balance (HLB) of from about 12 to about 17. The quantity of surfactant in such formulation ranges from about 5% to about 15% by weight. The surfactant can be a single component having the above HLB or can be a mixture of two or more components having the desired HLB.
Illustrative of surfactants used in parenteral formulations are the class of polyethylene sorbitan fatty acid esters, for example, sorbitan monooleate and the high molecular weight adducts of ethylene oxide with a hydrophobic base, formed by the condensation of propylene oxide with propylene glycol.
The pharmaceutical compositions may be in the form of sterile injectable aqueous suspensions. Such suspensions may be formulated according to known methods using suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents such as, for example, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, methylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethyl-cellulose, sodium alginate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, gum tragacanth and gum acacia; dispersing or wetting agents which may be a naturally occurring phosphatide such as lecithin, a condensation product of an alkylene oxide with a fatty acid, for example, polyoxyethylene stearate, a condensation product of ethylene oxide with a long chain aliphatic alcohol, for example, heptadeca-ethyleneoxycetanol, a condensation product of ethylene oxide with a partial ester derived form a fatty acid and a hexitol such as polyoxyethylene sorbitol monooleate, or a condensation product of an ethylene oxide with a partial ester derived from a fatty acid and a hexitol anhydride, for example polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate.
The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution or suspension in a non-toxic parenterally acceptable diluent or solvent. Diluents and solvents that may be employed are, for example, water, Ringer's solution, isotonic sodium chloride solutions and isotonic glucose solutions. In addition, sterile fixed oils are conventionally employed as solvents or suspending media. For this purpose, any bland, fixed oil may be employed including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid can be used in the preparation of injectables.
A composition of the invention may also be administered in the form of suppositories for rectal administration of the drug. These compositions can be prepared by mixing the drug with a suitable non-irritation excipient which is solid at ordinary temperatures but liquid at the rectal temperature and will therefore melt in the rectum to release the drug. Such material are, for example, cocoa butter and polyethylene glycol.
Another formulation employed in the methods of the present invention employs transdermal delivery devices (“patches”). Such transdermal patches may be used to provide continuous or discontinuous infusion of the compounds of the present invention in controlled amounts. The construction and use of transdermal patches for the delivery of pharmaceutical agents is well known in the art (see, e.g., U.S. Pat. No. 5,023,252, issued Jun. 11, 1991, incorporated herein by reference). Such patches may be constructed for continuous, pulsatile, or on demand delivery of pharmaceutical agents.
Controlled release formulations for parenteral administration include liposomal, polymeric microsphere and polymeric gel formulations which are known in the art.
It may be desirable or necessary to introduce the pharmaceutical composition to the patient via a mechanical delivery device. The construction and use of mechanical delivery devices for the delivery of pharmaceutical agents is well known in the art. Direct techniques for, for example, administering a drug directly to the brain usually involve placement of a drug delivery catheter into the patient's ventricular system to bypass the blood-brain barrier. One such implantable delivery system, used for the transport of agents to specific anatomical regions of the body, is described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,011,472, issued Apr. 30, 1991.

The following assay is one of the methods by which compound activity relating to treatment of the disorders identified herein can be determined.
PAKT/PKB Cytoblot Assay Protocol with H209 Cells
H209 small cell lung carcinoma cells in log phase were plated at 50,000 cells/well in 96-well poly-lysine coated, clear bottom/black-sided plates (BD Cat # 354640) in 100 μl RPMI medium containing 0.1% (w/v) BSA, and incubated overnight at 37° C. in 5% CO2 incubator. The following day, compounds (10 mM stock solutions in DMSO) were added to the plates to generate final concentrations of 0.0, 0.01, 0.03, 0.1, 0.3, 1.0, 3.0 and 10 μM for IC50 determinations and incubated for 1 hour at 37° C. Cells were then left untreated or stimulated with Stem Cell Factor (SCF: Biosource Cat # PHC2116) at a final concentration of 25 ng/mL for 5 minutes at 37° C. in 5% CO2 incubator. The media was then removed using a vacuum manifold and the cells were washed once with Tris Buffered Saline (TBS).
Cells were then fixed by adding 200 μl of cold 3.7% (v/v) formaldehyde in TBS to each well for 15 minutes at 4° C. After removal of the formaldehyde, the cells were treated with the addition of 50 μl of methanol (at −20° C.) to each well for 5 minutes. After removal of the methanol, 2001 of 1% (w/v) BSA in TBS was added to each well to block non-specific antibody binding sites and the plate was incubated at room temperature for 30 minutes.
After removal of the blocking buffer, 50 μl of p-(S473) AKT rabbit polyclonal antibody (Cell Signaling Cat # 9277S) was added at a dilution of 1:250 in 0.1% (w/v) BSA in TBS, and the plate was incubated at room temperature for 1 hour. Plates were then washed 3 times with cold TBS containing 0.05% (v/v) Tween 20 (TBS-T) and 1001 of Horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated goat-anti-rabbit antibody (Amersham Cat # NA934V) at a dilution of 1:250 in TBS-T was added and the plate was incubated at room temperature for 1 h. After washing with ice-cold TBS-T four times, 100 μl of Enhanced Chemiluminescence (ECL) reagent (Amersham Cat# RPN2209) was added to each well and mixed on a mini-orbital shaker for 1 min. The plate was then read on a Perkin Elmer Victor 5 Multilabel Counter (#1420-0421).
Compounds of the invention were tested in the above PAKT/PKB Cytoblot assay, with the result that examples 2-6, 9-15, 17-25, 29-34, 37, 44-49, 51, 74, 75, 76, 79, 82, 83, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 91, 92, 95, 96, 97, 100, 103, 104, 110, 111, 113, 114, 117, 119, 120, 123, 124, 132, 133, 134, 135, 136, 137, 138, 139, 140, 141, 143, 144, 145, 146, 147, 148, 149, 151, 152, 153, 155, 156, 157, 158, 159, 160, 162, 165, 169, 170, 173, 174, 175, and 176 exhibited IC50 values of less than 500 nM. Examples 8, 16, 28, 38, 40, 43, 50, 78, 80, 84, 90, 94, 98, 105, 108, 112, 129, 142, 150, 154, 163, 172, and 177 exhibited IC50 values between 500 nM and 1 μM. Examples 1, 7, 26, 27, 36, 39, 41, 42, 93, 99, 102, 106, 107, 109, 116, 118, 121, 122, 125, 126, 127, 128, 166, 167, and 171 exhibited IC50 values between 1 and 3 μM.
Based upon the above and other standard laboratory techniques known to evaluate compounds useful for the treatment of cancers, by standard toxicity tests and by standard pharmacological assays for the determination of treatment of the conditions identified above in mammals, and by comparison of these results with the results of known medicaments that are used to treat these conditions, the effective dosage of the compounds of this invention can readily be determined for treatment of each desired indication. The amount of the active ingredient to be administered in the treatment of one of these conditions can vary widely according to such considerations as the particular compound and dosage unit employed, the mode of administration, the period of treatment, the age and sex of the patient treated, and the nature and extent of the condition treated.
The total amount of the active ingredient to be administered will generally range from about 0.01 mg/kg to about 200 mg/kg, and preferably from about 0.1 mg/kg to about 20 mg/kg body weight per day. A unit dosage may contain from about 0.5 mg to about 1500 mg of active ingredient, and can be administered one or more times per day. The daily dosage for administration by injection, including intravenous, intramuscular, subcutaneous and parenteral injections, and use of infusion techniques will preferably be from 0.01 to 200 mg/kg of total body weight. The daily rectal dosage regimen will preferably be from 0.01 to 200 mg/kg of total body weight. The daily vaginal dosage regimen will preferably be from 0.01 to 200 mg/kg of total body weight. The daily topical dosage regimen will preferably be from 0.1 to 200 mg administered between one to four times daily. The transdermal concentration will preferably be that required to maintain a daily dose of from 0.01 to 200 mg/kg. The daily inhalation dosage regimen will preferably be from 0.01 to 100 mg/kg of total body weight.
Of course the specific initial and continuing dosage regimen for each patient will vary according to the nature and severity of the condition as determined by the attending diagnostician, the activity of the specific compound employed, the age and general condition of the patient, time of administration, route of administration, rate of excretion of the drug, drug combinations, and the like. The desired mode of treatment and number of doses of a compound of the present invention or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or composition thereof can be ascertained by those skilled in the art using conventional treatment tests.
