Abstract
Compounds and methods for promoting smoking cessation. The compounds may be used to treat a variety of other conditions and disease states.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0001] 1. Field of the Invention
[0002] The present invention relates to methods and reagents for promoting smoking cessation. The present invention relates to methods and reagents for preventing smoking addiction. The present invention also relates to methods and reagents for treating nicotine addiction.
[0003] 2. Background of the Invention
[0004] Smoking addiction is a complex phenomenon believed to involve cognition enhancement, psychological conditioning, stress adaptation, reinforcing properties and relief from withdrawal. Consequently, providing therapeutic treatment for smoking addiction is an extremely difficult challenge.
[0005] Tobacco products, including cigarettes, cigars, pipes and smokeless tobacco, can cause a variety of well-recognized health problems. From a public health perspective, it is desirable to stop consuming tobacco products, especially in the form of smoking. However, some individuals cannot quit smoking tobacco products, in spite of focused attempts to succeed. One major factor in the difficulty of quitting smoking is the presence of nicotine in tobacco.
[0006] Nicotine can produce a myriad of behavioral effects and is unquestionably one of the most popular and powerful reinforcing agents. In addition, smoking, arguably the vehicle of choice for nicotine delivery, may cause a variety of well-recognized health problems. For these reasons it has sometimes been desirable to cease consumption of nicotine. However, for some, the termination of nicotine consumption can not be accomplished, in spite of focused attempts to succeed.
[0007] One method for assisting smoking cessation is to reduce consumption over time. For complex reasons, this method is not always entirely successful. One method for assisting smoking cessation is to provide an alternate delivery vehicle for nicotine. Such delivery vehicles include oral preparations such as gums, and transdermal vehicles such as skin patches.
[0008] Another method for assisting smoking cessation is to replace the nicotine signal from tobacco with a substitute reinforcer. Bupropion is used to promote smoking cessation and it may act as a substitute reinforcer.
[0009] Nicotine antagonists have been considered as an approach to smoking cessation. A nicotine antagonist would block the reinforcing signal from nicotine that creates and maintains the addiction to smoking. Over time, the smoker would dissociate the physical and psychological aspects of smoking. For example, mecamylamine has been used to promote smoking cessation, although it is generally ineffective alone. Another approach is to administer an antagonist, e.g., mecamylamine, together with nicotine replacement therapy. Compounds which act as nicotine substitutes and block nicotine's effects would be preferred smoking cessation reagents.
[0010] In spite of the known methods for treating smoking addiction, there remains a lack of generally effective means of treating and/or preventing smoking addiction. Accordingly, there remains a strong need for methods and reagents for treating smoking addiction.
[0011] Both the psychological and physiological effects of tobacco smoke are attributed to nicotine. Neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) are widely distributed throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems including several regions of the brain. Two major classes of nAChRs, α4β2 and α7 have been identified in rat and human brains. The possibility exists that specific subtypes mediate specific functions, especially as this relates to nicotine addiction. Thus, the availability of a variety of ligands that bind with high affinity and selectivity for each subtype are needed. It is also desirable to have both agonists and antagonists since the role of nAChRs in addiction is not known.
[0012] Epibatidine is a nicotinic agonist whose biological effects appear to be mediated by α4β2 nAChRs. The high potency of epibatidine for α4622 nAChRs makes this agent a very useful lead compound for the development of new ligands for studying this nicotinic subtype. Such epibatidine analogs may be potent and/or selective for α4β2 receptors could provide a therapeutic for treatment of in addition to nicotine dependence, pain, and other neurological disorders.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0055] In the compounds represented by formula (I)-(III), each R or X may be, independently, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, or aralkyl. The alkyl, alkenyl and alkynyl groups may have from 1 to 20 carbons atoms. The alkenyl and alkynyl groups may have from 2 to 20 carbons atoms. The aryl and aralkyl groups may have from 6 to 20 carbon atoms. These ranges include all specific values and subranges therebetween, such as 2, 4, 8, 10 and 12 carbon atoms. A preferred aryl group is phenyl. Preferred aralkyl groups include benzyl and phenethyl groups. The groups described above may be unsubstituted or substituted.
[0056] When R or X is aryl or aralkyl, the substituent is preferably represented by the formula:
4
[0057] where k is 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4, and S and c are as defined below.
[0058] In one embodiment of the present invention, R, X or S is a substituted alkyl group represented by the formula —(CH2)n—Y, where Y is a halogen and n is an integer from 1 to 8. In addition, X may also be a halogen. Examples of suitable halogens include —F, —Cl, —Br and —I.
[0059] Each Q is, independently, C—X or N, provided that at least one Q is N and at least one Q is C—X. Preferably, up to three Q are N. More preferably, up to two Q are N. Most preferably, one Q is N.
[0060] As described above, when not N, Q is C—X. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, one, two, or three X may be other than hydrogen, as defined above.
[0061] In a preferred embodiment of the invention, at least one X is a substituted or unsubstituted aryl group. Phenyl is a preferred aryl group. Suitable substituents include one or more of the following: halogen (e.g., F, —Cl, —Br and —I), alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, aralkyl, —OH, —OR, —CH2—CO2R, —CO—R, —CO2R, —N(R)2, —NR—CO—R, —CO—N(R)2, —NRCO2R, —SO3CF3, —NO2, —N3, —CF3, —CH═CHY or —CN, where R is as defined above. Particularly preferred substituents for the aryl group include halogen, especially —F and —Cl, alkyl, especially methyl, and alkoxy, especially methoxy. The substituted aryl group preferably has one or two substituents. In a particularly preferred embodiment, one Q is N and one X is a substituted or substituted aryl group.
[0062] As one skilled in the art will readily appreciate, compounds of formula (I)-(III) in which an alkenyl or alkynyl group is attached to a heteroatom, e.g., N or O, there is no double or triple bond between the heteroatom and the carbon atom of the alkenyl or alkynyl group that is directly bonded to the heteroatom.
[0063] In formula (I), A1 and A2 are each, independently, H, —OH, —N(R)C(═NR)N(R)2 or —N(R)2. Preferably, at least one of A1 and A2 are —OH, —N(R)C(═NR)N(R)2 or —N(R)2, or A1 and A2 together form ═O, ═NOR, ═NR, —O—NR—, —NR—O—, or —NR—NR—.
[0064] The compounds are illustrated with the group A3 of undefined stereochemistry in formula (II), such that the A3 group may be on the opposite or same side of the bridging nitrogen as the ring substituent.
[0065] Preferred compounds of formula (I) are represented by formula (Ia):
5
[0066] where A1 and A2 are as defined above and X1, X2, X3 and X4 are as defined for X above.
[0067] Additional preferred compounds of formula (I) are represented by formula (Ib) below:

[0068] where A, and A2 are as defined above, X1, X2, X3 and X4 are as defined for X above, and S and c are as defined below.
[0069] Preferred compounds of formula (II) are represented by formula (IIa):
7
[0070] where A3 is defined above, and X1, X2, X3 and X4 are as defined for X above.
[0071] Particularly preferred compounds of formula (IIa) are those in which X2 is unsubstituted or unsubstituted aryl, more preferably unsubstituted or unsubstituted phenyl. When substituted, the phenyl group have one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of halogen, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, aralkyl, —OH, —OR, —CH2—CO2R, —CO—R, —CO2R, —N(R)2, —NR—CO—R, —CO—N(R)2, —NRCO2R, —SO3CF3, —NO2, —N3, —CF3, —CH═CHY and —CN. Particularly preferred substitents in include —NO2 and —OCH3. In these compounds, it is preferable that X3 and X4 are both H.
[0072] Even more particularly preferred compounds of formula (II) are those represented by formula (IIb):

[0074] each S is, independently, halogen, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, phenyl, aralkyl, —OH, —OR, —CH2—CO2R, —CO—R, —CO2R, —N(R)2, —NR—CO—R, —CO—N(R)2, —NRCO2R, —SO3CF3, —NO2, —N3, —CF3, —CH═CHY or —CN, or
[0075] two S, taken together with the phenyl group to which they are bonded, form a 2-naphthyl group.
[0076] c is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5; and
[0077] A1, X1, X3, X4 and R are as defined above.
[0078] Preferred examples of alkenyl and alkynyl substituents as S include CRz ═CRzRz, CRzRz—CH═CRzRz, C≡CRz, C(═RzRz)Rz, where each Rz is, independently, H, C1-6 alkyl, phenyl, substituted phenyl, CH2OH, or C6-phenyl.
[0079] As noted above, c may be 0, in which case the phenyl ring is unsubstituted. When the phenyl ring is substituted, c is preferably 1, 2 or 3.
[0080] This phenyl group, optionally substituted by one to five S substituents, may be present at any of the other positions of the ring defined by the Q's. In addition, this phenyl group may be present in any of the compounds represented by formula (I), (II) or (III), at any position of the ring defined by the Q's.
[0081] Preferred compounds of formula (III) are represented by formula (IIIa) or (IIIb):
9
[0082] where Z is as defined above, and X1, X2 and X3 are as defined for X above.
[0083] The compounds depicted as above are shown as a single enantiomeric compound, however, both enantiomers are within the scope of the present invention, such as a racemic mixture. Moreover, it is within the specific scope of the present invention to administer compounds which are enantiomerically enriched in a single enantiomer. Within the context of the present invention enrichment in a single enantiomer may comprise an enantiomeric excess (e.e.) of ≧55%, even more preferably ≧70%, even more preferably ≧80%, even more preferably ≧90%, even more preferably ≧95%, even more preferably ≧98%.
[0084] An enantiomerically enriched composition may be prepared by conventional methods known to those of ordinary skill in the art, such as by using an enantiomerically enriched starting material or by resolution of a racemic mixture or a mixture of a lower enantiomeric purity. Resolution may be conducted by conventional methods known to those of skill in the art, such as by chiral chromatography, formation of diasteriomeric derivatives followed by separation, or enantioselective crystallization.
[0085] The compounds may be used in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt via protonation of the amine with a pharmaceutically acceptable acid. The acid may be an inorganic acid or an organic acid. Suitable acids include, for example, hydrochloric, hydroiodic, hydrobromic, sulfuric, phosphoric, citric, acetic and formic acids.
[0086] Administration of the Compounds
[0087] A variety of administration techniques may be utilized, among them oral, transdermal or parenteral techniques such as subcutaneous, intravenous, intraperitoneal, intracerebral and intracerebroventricular injections, catheterizations and the like. Such methods of administration are well-known to those skilled in the art. For a general discussion of drug delivery systems, see Kirk-Othmer Encyclopedia of Chemical Technology, Fourth Edition, Volume 8, pp. 445-475.
[0088] Average quantities of the compounds may vary in accordance with the binding properties of the compound (i.e., affinity, onset and duration of binding) and in particular should be based upon the recommendations and prescription of a qualified physician.
[0089] The therapeutic compositions useful in practicing the therapeutic methods of this invention may include, in admixture, a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient (carrier) and one or more of the compounds of the invention, as described herein as an active ingredient.
[0090] The preparation of therapeutic compositions which contain such neuroactive compounds as active ingredients is well understood in the art. Such compositions may be prepared for oral administration, or as injectables, either as liquid solutions or suspensions, however, solid forms suitable for solution in, or suspension in, liquid prior to injection can also be prepared. The preparation can also be emulsified. The active therapeutic ingredient is often mixed with excipients which are pharmaceutically acceptable and compatible with the active ingredient. Suitable excipients are, for example, water, saline, dextrose, glycerol, ethanol, or the like and combinations thereof. In addition, if desired, the composition can contain minor amounts of auxiliary substances such as wetting or emulsifying agents, and pH buffering agents which enhance the effectiveness of the active ingredient. The compounds of the invention can be formulated into the therapeutic composition as neutralized pharmaceutically acceptable salt forms.
[0091] The therapeutic compositions are conventionally administered orally, by unit dose, for example. The term “unit dose” when used in reference to a therapeutic composition of the present invention refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosage for humans, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active material calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect in association with the required diluent; i.e., carrier, or vehicle.
[0092] The compositions are administered in a manner compatible with the dosage formulation, and in a therapeutically effective amount. The quantity to be administered depends on the subject to be treated, the presence of other agonists and antagonists in the subject's system, and degree of binding or inhibition of binding desired. Precise amounts of active ingredient required to be administered depend on the judgment of the practitioner and are peculiar to each individual. However, suitable dosages may range from about 0.01 to about 1,000, preferably about 0.25 to about 500, and more preferably 10 to 50 milligrams of active ingredient per kilogram body weight of individual per day and depend on the route of administration. For oral administration, 1 to 100 milligrams of active ingredient per kilogram body weight of individual per day is a preferred dose. However, the exact dosage must be determined by factoring in rate of degradation in the stomach, absorption from the stomach, other medications administered, etc. Suitable regimes for administration are also variable, but are typified by an initial administration followed by repeated doses at one or more hour intervals by a subsequent injection or other administration. Alternatively, continuous intravenous infusion sufficient to maintain appropriate concentrations in the blood are contemplated.
[0093] The present invention is directed to a method of treating smoking addiction. This may be accomplished by administering a compound of the present invention to a patient in need of terminating a smoking addiction. While not wishing to bound by any particular theory, it is believed that by smoking addiction may be successfully treated by blocking some of the pharmacological effects of nicotine, such as, but not limited to reinforcement, antinociception, hypothermia, drug discrimination and motor impairment, while also dissociating some of the reinforcing affects of smoking. Within the context of the present invention, a patient in need of terminating a smoking addiction is a person who smokes on a regular basis and is either unable or unwilling to terminate smoking on a regular basis. The method of treating a smoking addiction may be practiced, by administering the compound of the present invention as described, preferably concurrent with or in advance of the act of smoking. In this fashion, the patient addicted to smoking will also be subject to the effects of the compounds while smoking, which can act to dissociate the reinforcing effects of smoking, from the act of smoking itself. The amount of the compound administered to be effective to dissociate the reinforcing effects of smoking from the act of smoking may vary depending on the patient and the nature of the patients addiction to smoking, however, determination of effective dosages and treatment schedules is within the level of skill of those of ordinary skill in the art, without undue experimentation.
[0094] The present invention is also directed to a method of preventing an addiction to smoking, by administering a compound of the present invention. A person (patient) in need of preventing an addiction to smoking may be a non-smoker or an occasional smoker, who is concerned about developing an addiction to smoking. The method of preventing a smoking addiction may be practiced, by administering the compounds as described, preferably in advance of the act of smoking. In this fashion, subject to the effects of the phenyltropane compounds, the patient will not develop a strong association of the act of smoking with the reinforcing effects of smoking. The amount of compound administered to be effective to prevent the association of the reinforcing effects of smoking from the act of smoking may vary depending on the patient and the nature of the patient. However, determination of effective dosages and treatment schedules is within the level of skill of those of ordinary skill in the art, without undue experimentation.
[0095] The present invention is also directed to a method of treating nicotine addiction. This may be accomplished by administering a compound of the present invention to a patient in need thereof. Within the context of the present invention, a patient in need of terminating a nicotine addiction is a person who consumes nicotine on a regular basis and is either unable or unwilling to terminate nicotine consumption on a regular basis. The method of treating a nicotine addiction may be practiced, by administering compounds as described, preferably concurrent with or in advance of the act of nicotine consumption. In this fashion, the patient addicted to nicotine will also be subject to the effects of the phenyltropane compounds, which can act to dissociate the physiological effects of nicotine consumption from the act of consuming nicotine. The amount of compound administered to be effective to dissociate the physiological effects of nicotine from the act of nicotine consumption may vary depending on the patient and the nature of the patients addiction to nicotine. However, determination of effective dosages and treatment schedules is within the level of skill of those of ordinary skill in the art, without undue experimentation.
[0096] The effectiveness of the present method is appreciated in the ability to block some but not all of the pharmacological effects of nicotine. In a preferred embodiment the present method blocks the pharmacological effects of antinociception, seizures, and motor impairment, while not effecting body temperature or drug discrimination.
[0097] According to another embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to prevent the development of an addiction to smoking, by administering to a human in need of preventing an addiction to smoking, a compound. In this embodiment, the compound can be administered prophylactically in order to prevent a subject from becoming addicted to smoking in the first place. Alternatively, the compound can be administered to a subject who is in the process of smoking cessation in order to prevent a relapse.
[0098] Other Pharmacological Uses of the Compounds of the Present Invention
[0099] In addition for their use in smoking cessation as described above, the compounds of the present invention, by virtue of the function as nicotinic ligands, may be used to treat other disease states. Examples of such conditions include Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, pain (analgesic activity), depression, Tourette's syndrome, inflammatory bowel syndrome, schizophrenia, anxiety, epilepsy, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, ulcerative colitis and obesity. Thus, the compounds of the present invention may be administered to a patient in need thereof, e.g., a human, in an amount effective to treat these disease states. As will be readily appreciated, the amount of compound administered to be effective for each disease state may vary depending on the patient and the nature of the patients addiction to nicotine. However, determination of effective dosages and treatment schedules is within the level of skill of those of ordinary skill in the art, without undue experimentation. The dosage may range from 0.01 to 1000, preferably from about 0.25 to about 500 milligrams of the compound per kilogram of patient body weight per day, depending on the route of administration. The compounds may be administered as described above for smoking cessation.
[0100] Imaging and Tracer Applications
[0101] Appropriately labeled compound represented by formula (I)-(III) may be useful in a variety of variety of applications. For example, the labeled compounds may be used for imaging drug and neurotransmitter receptors by PET or SPECT. The labeled compounds may also be useful in ligand binding assays. Since little is known about the in vivo disposition of nAChRs both before and after chronic nicotine exposure, such labeled compounds would be very useful in the study of nAChRs. The labeled compounds of the present invention may be useful radio-labeled ligands for imaging the nicotinic receptor in vivo by PET or SPECT.
[0102] For use in imaging and tracer applications, the compounds of the present invention may be labeled with any detectable label. Accordingly, the present invention includes compounds of represented by formula (I)-(III) which are labeled with at least one labeling atom. Preferably, the label is a radioactive element. Examples of suitable radioactive elements include 3H, 11C, 14C, 32P, 35S, 18F, 36Cl, 51Cr, 57Co, 59Fe, 90Y, 123I, 125I, and 131I. Preferred radioactive elements include 3H, 11C, 18F, 123I. Specific examples of suitable labeled compounds are those where at least one X is 18F., 123I, 125I or 131I, or X is a phenyl group substituted with one or more of 18F, 123I, 125I or 131I. One skilled in the art will also appreciate that the labeled compound may be represented by formula (I)-(III) in which one or more hydrogen atom in the formula is replaced with 3H and/or one or more carbon atoms is replaced with 11C and/or 14C. A specific example of a labeled compound of the present invention is the 2′-fluoro analog C1b, see below, labeled with fluorine-18. This compound has been demonstrated to be useful in mapping nicotinic receptors by PET.
[0103] Synthesis of Compounds
[0104] Synthetic routes for the preparation of compounds of within the scope of the present invention are set forth in the synthetic schemes shown in FIGS. 1-16. Specific examples of synthetic procedures are provided in the Examples below.
[0105] The compounds represented by formula (I)-(III) may be prepared from, for example, 7-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-ene (C4b). The preparation of (C4b) is shown in Scheme C1 (FIG. 1) described below.
[0106] Olefin (C3a) shown in Scheme C1 can be obtained in two steps from p-tolylsulfonylacetylene and N-(methoxycarbonyl)pyrrole as described by Clayton and Regan, Tetrahedron Letters, vol. 34, no. 46, pp. 7493-7496, 1993, incorporated herein by reference. As shown in Scheme C1 (FIG. 1), removal of the p-tolylsulfonyl from C3a to give C4a was achieved using sodium amalgam. Clayton and Regan reported that palladium-catalyzed reductive addition of 2-chloro-5-iodopyridine (C5) to C4a gave exclusively the desired 2-exosubstituted compound C6 which yielded C1a on treatment with hydrogen bromide in acetic acid. It has been found that reductive palladium-catalyzed addition of C4b using 2-amino-5-iodopyridine (C7) afforded exclusively the 7-(tert-butoxycarbonyl)-exo-2-(2′-amino-5′-pyridinyl)-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane (C8) (Liang 1997). Importantly, this intermediate is highly useful for preparing many of the compounds of the present invention. Epibatidine (C1a) was obtained in better overall yield and purity by diazotization of C8 followed by treatment with cuprous chloride in hydrochloric acid. It is preferred that freshly prepared sodium amalgam be used to convert C3a and C3b to the olefins C4a and C4b, respectively. 2.5% sodium amalgam was used for the preparation of C4b, where over 2 kg was required to synthesize 10 g of C4b.
[0107] A higher yield synthesis of C4b that can be easily upscaled to provide large amounts of this compound is shown in Scheme C1 (FIG. 1). The addition of tributyltin hydride to C3b in benzene containing 2,2′-azabisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) gave 78-91% of C9 depending on the scale (0.04 to 0.07 mol). Treatment of C9 with tetrabutylammonium fluoride in tetrahydrofuran provides 93-98% of C4b that was identical to material prepared using sodium amalgam (Brieaddy et al 1998). The ready availability of C4b provides for the synthesis of many compounds within the scope of the present invention.
[0108] As shown in Scheme C2 (FIG. 2), compound C8 was used to prepare racemic epibatidine (C1a) as well as the compounds C1b-i. Diazotization of C8 using sodium nitrite in hydrochloric acid containing either cuprous chloride, pyridine containing 70% hydrogen fluoride, hydrogen bromide containing bromine, or acetic acid containing potassium carbonate gave epibatidine (C1a), the 2′-fluoro and 2′-bromo analogs C1b and C1c, and the N-tert-butoxycarbonyl 2′-hydroxy compound C11, respectively. Treatment of C11 with trifluoromethanesultonic anhydride gave the 2′-triflate C12. Diazotization of C8 with isoamylnitrite in methylene iodide containing hydrogen iodide afforded the N-tert-butyloxycarbonyl 2′-iodo compound CIO. Reductive methylation of C8 with formaldehyde using sodium cyanoborohydride yielded the N-tert-butoxycarbonyl 2′-dimethylamino analog C13. Treatment of C8 and C10-C13 with trifluoroacetic acid yielded compounds C1d-h. Reductive dehalogenation of C1a gave the unsubstituted analog C1i. Compound C1i can also be prepared by adding 3-iodopyridine to C4b under reductive Heck conditions followed by treatment with trifluoroacetic acid (FIG. 2).
[0109] Both 3-amino-2-fluoro-5-iodopyridine and 3-amino-2-chloro-5-iodopyridine (Woolard et al. 1997) add to the olefin C4b to give the expected 2-exo addition products C14 and C15, respectively (Scheme C3, FIG. 3). Reductive dehalogenation of C14 gives the 3-amino compound C16. Diazotization of C14, C15, and C16 using sodium nitrite in hydrochloric acid containing cuprous chloride yielded C17, C18, and C19, respectively.
[0110] Bromination of C8 affords the 2-amino-3-bromo compound C20 (Scheme C4, FIG. 4). Palladium acetate catalyzed reaction of C20 with phenylboronic acid in dimethoxyethane (DME) in the presence of tri-(2-tolyl)phosphine gave the 2-amino-3-phenyl compound C21. Diazotization of C20 using sodium nitrite in hydrogen bromide containing bromine afforded C22. Diazotization of C21 using sodium nitrite in hydrochloric acid containing cuprous chloride gave C23. Diazatization of C21 using sodium nitrite in pyridine HF afforded C23a. Treatment of C21 with trifluoroacetic acid yielded C24.
[0111] Scheme C5 (FIG. 5) shows the synthesis of a compound in which the 7-norbornane substructure in epibatidine is modified. The addition of 2-amino-5-iodopyridine to 7-hydroxynorbornane (C25) (Story 1961) using conditions analogous to those we used for C4b gave the exo product C26. Diazotization of C26 using sodium nitrite in hydrochloric acid containing cuprous chloride afforded the 2-chloro compound C27. Oxidation of C27 using dimethylsulfoxide in the presence of pyridine sulfur trioxide complex and triethylamine yielded the 7-keto analog C28. Reductive amination of C28 using benzylamine and sodium cyanoborohydride in methanol gave C29 (the structure was established using 1H NMR methods including nOe effects). Reductive debenzylation using ammonium formate and 10% palladium-on-carbon in methanol yielded the desired C30.
[0112] Intermediates for the syntheses of the compounds of the present invention include 7-tert-butyloxycarbonyl-exo-2-(2′-amino-5′-pyridinyl)-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane (C8), 7-tert-butyloxycarbonylexo-2-(3′-amino-5′-pyridinyl)-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane (C 16), 7-tert-butyloxycarbonyl-exo-2-(3′-amino-2′-chloro-5′-pyridinyl)-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane (C 14), 7-tert-butyloxycarbonyl-exo-2-(3′-amino-2′fluoro-5′pyridinyl)-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane (C15), and 7-tert-butyloxycarbonyl-exo-2-(2′-amino-3′-bromo-5′pyridinyl)-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]heptane (C20). The syntheses of C8, C14, C15, C16, and C20 have been described above.
[0113] The syntheses of the 3′-substituted compounds T2a-h starting with C 16 are shown in Scheme D1 (FIG. 6). Below the compounds T1a-e and T2i-k will be prepared from C8 or C16 as outlined in Scheme D2 (FIG. 7). Below Diazotization of C8 followed by treatment with sodium azide or potassium cyanide gives the 2-azido and 2′-cyano target compounds T1a and T1b, respectively. Acylation of C8 or C16 with acetic anhydride propionic anhydride of phenyl formate yields T1c or T2i, T1d or T2j, T1e or T2k, respectively, depending on the starting amino compound.
[0114] Scheme D3 (FIG. 8) shows a synthetic route for T3a-f, T4a-f, D3.4, D3.5 and D3.6 starting with C20. Diazotization of C20 using sodium nitrite in pyridine-hydrogen fluoride, hydrochloric acid containing cuprous chloride, hydrogen bromide containing bromine, or acetic acid containing potassium carbonate will give T3b-d and the 2′-hydroxy compound D3.2, respectively. Diazotization of C20 with isoamylnitrite in methylene iodide containing hydrogen iodide will give the N-tert-Boc-2′-iodo compound D3.1. Treatment of C20, D3.1, and D3.2 with trifluoroacetic acid affords the target compounds T3a, T3e, and T3f, respectively. Palladium-catalyzed coupling of C20 with the appropriate aryl boronic acid, which is either commercially available or can be prepared directly, will give D3.3. Treatment of D3.3 (X═H, Y═NO2) with trifluoroacetic acid gives D3.4. Diazotization of the appropriate D3.3 intermediate in hydrochloric acid containing cuprous chloride, hydrogen bromide containing bromine or isoamylnitrate containing methylene iodide will yield the desired target compounds T4a-j, D3.5 and D3.6.
[0115] The synthesis of compounds T3 g-n, shown in Scheme D4 (FIG. 9), follows the same course used to prepare similar compounds. In this case, the starting intermediates are C14 and C15.
[0116] The compounds T1f-m and T21-m may be prepared by procedures analogous to those that used to prepare similarly substituted 3B-phenyltropane analogs (Blough et al. 1996; McKean et al. 1987; Knochel and Singer 1993; Sonogashira et al. 1975; Echavarren and Stille 1987; Rossi and Baellina 1997; Haack et al. 1988). The methods are shown in Scheme D5 (FIG. 10).
[0117] Scheme D6 (FIG. 11) outlines methods to prepare the target compounds T5-T10. Diazotization of C26 followed by treatment with hydrogen chloride-cuprous chloride, pyridine-hydrogen-fluoride, hydrogen bromide-bromine will give C27, D6.1, and D6.2, respectively. Oxidation with dimethylsulfoxide in the presence of pyridine sulfur trioxide complex and triethylamine will yield the ketones C28, D6.3, and D6.4. Reductive amination of these intermediates using ammonia in methanol and sodium cyanoborohydride followed by separation in each case will give the target compounds T5a-c and T6a-c. Treatment of C28, D6.3, and D6.4 with hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid in the presence of ammonium hydroxide will yield the diaziridines T8a-c (Schmitz and Ohme 1965). The oxaziridines T9a-c and T10a-c can be prepared by the reaction of hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid with C28, D6.3, and D6.4, respectively, followed by separation in each case (Schmitz et al 1964). Treatment of epibatidine (C1a), C1b, and C1c with hydroxylamine-O-sulfonic acid will give the hydrazine T7a-c (Gosland and Meuwsen 1963).
[0118]
FIG. 12 (Scheme 1) outlines the synthetic methods used to prepare the cyclic analogs, 7, 8, and 9, shown in this Scheme. Iodination of 1 using iodine in a periodic acid, sulfuric acid, acetic acid mixture afforded 2-amino-5-iodo-4-picoline (2). Reaction of 2 with meta-chloroperbenzoic acid in acetone gave the N-oxide 3. Treatment of an ethereal solution of 3 with acetic acid containing hydrogen chloride provided 4-acetamido-4-chloromethyl-5-iodopyridine (4) alkylation of azabicyclo olefin 5 with 4 gave the tert-amine 6. Intramolecular cyclization of 6 using reductive Heck conditions [Pd(OAc)2, KO3CH, Bu4N+C1, DMF] yielded the cyclic analog 7. Hydrolysis of 7 using 3N hydrochloric acid afforded the amino compound 8, which yielded the chloro analog 9 when treated with sodium nitrite in concentrated hydrochloric acid. Compounds 15, 16, and 17 were synthesized by an analogous set of reactions starting with 2-amino-picoline (FIG. 13, Scheme 2).
[0119] Representative synthetic procedures for preparing compounds of the present invention are described in Scheme 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 shown in FIGS. 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16, respectively. The procedures are described in more detail in the following Examples.
[0120] As one will readily appreciate, the synthetic routes described in FIGS. 1-16 and the more detailed procedures set forth in the following Examples can be readily adapted to other compounds represented by formula (I), (II) or (III).

[0122] Table 1 and 2 below present epibatidine binding assay data for compounds represented by formula (I)-(III). The binding assay data reported in the Tables was obtained according to the procedure described below.
[0123] Epibatidine Binding Assay
[0124] Adult male rat cerebral cortices (Pelfreeze Biological, Rogers, Ak.) were homogenized in 39 volumes of ice-cold 50 mM Tris buffer (pH 7.4 at 4° C.) containing 120 mM NaCl, 5 mM KCl, 2 mM CaCl2 and 1 mM MgCl2 and sedimented at 37,000×g for 10 minutes at 4° C. The supernatant was discarded and the pellet resupended in the original volume of buffer and the wash procedure repeated twice more. After the last centrifugation, the pellet was resuspended in {fraction (1/10)} its original homogenization volume and stored at −80° C. until needed. In a final volume of 0.5 mL, each assay tube contained 3-6 mg wet weight male rat cerebral cortex homogenate (added last), 0.5-2 nM [3H]Epibatidine (NEN Life Science Products, Wilmington, Del.) and one of 10-12 different concentrations of test compound dissolved in buffer (pH 7.4 at RT) containing 10% DMSO. Total and nonspecific binding were determined in the presence of vehicle and 300 uM (−)nicotine, respectively. After a four-hour incubation at room temperature, the samples were vacuum-filtered over GF/B filter papers presoaked in 0.03% polyethylenimine using a Brandel 48-well or a Packard MultiMate 96-well harvester and washed with 3-6 mL of ice-cold buffer. The amount of radioactivity trapped on the filter was determined by standard liquid scintillation techniques in a TriCarb 2200 or TopCount scintillation counter (both from Packard Instruments, Meriden, Conn.) at approximately 50 or 37% efficiency, respectively. The binding data were fit using the nonlinear regression analysis routines in Prism (Graphpad, San Diego, Calif.). The Ki values for the test compounds were calculated from their respective IC50 values using the Cheng-Prusoff equation.
