This invention provides compounds and pharmaceutical compositions suitable as allosteric modulators of hemoglobin, methods and intermediates for their preparation, and methods for their use in treating disorders mediated by hemoglobin and disorders that would benefit from tissue and/or cellular oxygenation.
Sickle cell disease is a disorder of the red blood cells, found particularly among those of African and Mediterranean descent. The basis for sickle cell disease is found in sickle hemoglobin (HbS), which contains a point mutation relative to the prevalent peptide sequence of hemoglobin (Hb).
Hemoglobin (Hb) transports oxygen molecules from the lungs to various tissues and organs throughout the body. Hemoglobin binds and releases oxygen through conformational changes. Sickle hemoglobin (HbS) contains a point mutation where glutamic acid is replaced with valine, allowing HbS to become susceptible to polymerization to give the HbS containing red blood cells their characteristic sickle shape. The sickled cells are also more rigid than normal red blood cells, and their lack of flexibility can lead to blockage of blood vessels. U.S. Pat. No. 7,160,910 discloses compounds that are allosteric modulators of hemoglobin. However, a need exists for additional therapeutics that can treat disorders that are mediated by Hb or by abnormal Hb such as HbS.
This invention relates generally to compounds and pharmaceutical compositions suitable as allosteric modulators of hemoglobin. In some aspects, this invention relates to methods for treating disorders mediated by hemoglobin and disorders that would benefit from tissue and/or cellular oxygenation.

The solution was cooled to 0° C. on ice bath and DIAD or DEAD (1.1 eq) in THF or toluene was added dropwise over a 1-20 min period. The ice cooling bath was allowed to expire over 90 min and the mixture was stirred at RT for 2-48 hours. The mixture was stirred for 10 min, then filtered through a pad of silica. The silica was washed with ethyl acetate 2-20 mL. The combined filtrates were evaporated and the residue was dried on highvac. The residue was purified by preparative HPLC or flash silica gel chromatography.
General Method B for Preparing Aryloxy/Heteroarylether Analogs (4a/4b) from Substituted Methylene Halide (2) and Hydroxyl (Hetero)Aryl Aldehyde Derivatives (3a/3b).
A mixture of hydroxyl (hetero)arylaldehyde derivatives (3a/3b) (0.1-2 mmol, 1-4 eq.), substituted methylene chloride or bromide (2) (1 eq), and K2CO3 (2-5 eq.) (catalytic amount of NaI or Bu4NI may also be added) in DMF or acetonitrile (1 to 10 mL) was stirred at RT or heating up to 120° C. for 0.5-8 h under nitrogen atmosphere. In workup A, water was added to the reaction mixture, the precipitated product was collected, washed with water, and then subjected to preparative HPLC or flash silica gel chromatography purification. In workup B (for products that did not precipitate), diluted HCl or aqueous NH4Cl was added at 0° C. to adjusted the pH to ˜7, the reaction mixture was partitioned between ethyl acetate or dichloromethane and aqueous sodium chloride and the organic layer separated, dried, and solvent removed under vacuum to afford crude product which was purified by automated silica gel column chromatography using appropriate solvents mixture (e.g., ethyl acetate/hexanes).
General Method C for Preparing Substituted Methylene Chloride (2a).
To a solution of substituted methylene alcohol (1) (0.1 to 2 mmol) in DCM (1-10 mL) was added SOCl2dropwise (2 eq to 5 eq) at 0° C. or RT. The reaction mixture was stirred at RT for 10nnin to 6 h, or until reaction is judged complete (LC/MS). The reaction mixture is concentrated to dryness over a rotavap. The crude chloride residue was suspended in toluene, sonicated and concentrated to dryness. The process was repeated three times and dried under vacuum to give the substituted methylene chloride (2), usually as an off-white solid, which was used for next step without further purification. Alternatively, a solution of aqueous 1N Na2CO3 is then added to produce a solution of pH˜8. the mixture was extracted with DCM (3×10-50 mL), dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated to the crude substituted methylene chloride (2a), which is then purified by column chromatography on silica gel (0-100% ethyl acetate-hexanes).
General Method D for Preparing Substituted Methylene Bromide (2b).
To a solution of substituted methylene alcohol (1) (0.1 to 2 mmol) in DCM (1-10 mL) was added Ph3P Br2 dropwise (2 eq to 5 eq) at 0° C. or RT. The reaction mixture was stirred at RT for 10 min to 2 h, or until reaction is judged complete (LC/MS). The reaction mixture is concentrated to dryness over a rotavap. The residue purified by column chromatography on silica gel (0-100% ethyl acetate-hexanes) to afford the pure bromide 2b.
General Method E for Preparing Heterocyclic Methylene Derivatives 9, 10, 12 and 13.
Reduction of the ester group of heterocyclohexene carboxylate 8 by LAH or DIBAL gives the corresponding alcohol 9-OH (Step 4). Further reaction of the alcohol 9-OH with thionyl chloride, Ph3PBr2 (or CBr4-Ph3P or PBr3), or alkyl/aryl sufonyl chloride produces the corresponding 10-X chloride, bromide or sulfonate (Step 5).
Alternatively, the double bond of heterocyclohexene carboxylate 8 is reduced to give the cis-heterocyclohexane 11-cis carboxylate under palladium catalyzed hydrogenation conditions (Step 6). Reduction of the ester group of 11-cis by LAH or DIBAL yields cis-alcohol 12-OH-cis (Step 8). Conversion of the alcohol 12-OH-cis to its chloride, bromide or sulfonate (such as mesylate, tosylate) 13-X-cis can be achieved by reacting with thionyl chloride, or Ph3PBr2, or sulfonyl chloride (such as mesyl chloride or tosyl chloride) (Step 9). The cis-cyclohexane carboxylate 11-cis can also be isomerized to the thermodynamically more stable trans-isomer 11-trans by the treatment with an alcoholic alkoxide (e.g., ethoxide) solution. Analogously, transformation of 11-trans ester to 12-trans alcohol and 13-X-trans halide is accomplished by applying conditions of Step 8 and Step 9 similar to these for the corresponding cis-isomers.
Coupling of the (hetero)cyclic methylene derivatives 9, 10, 12 and 13 with hydroxyl (hetero)arylaldehyde derivatives (3a/3b) by general method A or B affords the corresponding aryloxy/heteroarylether analogs (4c and 4d).
General Method F for Preparing Heterocyclic Methylene Derivatives 18, 19, 20 and 21.
The ketone ester 14 is converted to the triflate intermediate 15 by treating with a triflating agent (e.g., triflic anhydride) in the presence of an organic base such as Hunig's base (Step 1). Suzuki coupling of the triflate 15 with a boronic acid or ester affords heterocyclo carboxylate 16 (Step 2). Subsequent reduction of the ester group by LAH or DIBAL gives the corresponding alcohol 18 (Step 3). Further reaction of the alcohol 18 with thionyl chloride, Ph3PBr2 (or CBr4-Ph3P or PBr3), or alkyl/aryl sufonyl chloride produces the corresponding 19 chloride, bromide or sulfonate (Step 4).
Alternatively, the double bond of 16 is reduced to give the saturated heterolic analog 17 under palladium catalyzed hydrogenation conditions (Step 5). Reduction of the ester group of 17 by LAH or DIBAL yields alcohol 20 (Step 7). Conversion of the alcohol 20 to its chloride, bromide or sulfonate (such as mesylate, tosylate) 21 can be achieved by reacting with thionyl chloride, or Ph3PBr2, or sufonyl chloride (such as mesyl chloride or tosyl chloride) (Step 8).
Coupling of the (hetero)cyclic methylene derivatives 18, 19, 20 and 21 with hydroxyl (hetero)arylaldehyde derivatives (3a/3b) by general method A or B affords the corresponding aryloxy/heteroaryloxyether analogs (4e and 4f).
Chiral pyrrolidine methylene derivatives 25 and 26 can be prepared according to reaction sequence depicted herein. The pyrrolidine ester 24 is produced via a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of alkene 22 with azomethine-ylide generated in situ from formaldehyde and amino acid 23 alkene (Step 1). Subsequent reduction of the ester to alcohol 24 and further conversion 25 are accomplished by analogous methods described herein. If a chiral auxiliary group such as chiral oxazolidinone derivative 22a is used, optically active pyrrolidine derivatives 25 and 26 can also be obtained. Coupling of 25 and 26 with hydroxyl (hetero)arylaldehyde derivatives (3a/3b) by general method A or B affords the corresponding aryloxy/heteroaryloxyether analogs (4).
Separate from the general synthesis of tetrahydrothiophenes (i.e., 20 and 21, A=S) described herein. Also described is a different synthetic approach to this class of analogs.
Other heterocyclic analogs (compound 5) with C—N linkage are synthesized by applying Buchwald/Hartwig amination conditions. Many of the cyclic amines (1) are available commercially (e.g., 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, and 1e).

The silica was washed with ethyl acetate 2-20 mL. The combined filtrates were evaporated and the residue was dried on highvac. The residue was purified by preparative HPLC or flash silica gel chromatography.
Prodrug Synthesis
Syntheses of the ester prodrugs start with the free carboxylic acid bearing the tertiary amine. The free acid is activated for ester formation in an aprotic solvent and then reacted with a free alcohol group in the presence of an inert base, such as triethyl amine, to provide the ester prodrug. Activating conditions for the carboxylic acid include forming the acid chloride using oxalyl chloride or thionyl chloride in an aprotic solvent, optionally with a catalytic amount of dimethyl formamide, followed by evaporation. Examples of aprotic solvents, include, but are not limited to methylene chloride, tetrahydrofuran, and the like. Alternatively, activations can be performed in situ by using reagents such as BOP (benzotriazol-1-yloxytris(dimethylamino) phosphonium hexafluorolphosphate, and the like (see Nagy et al., 1993, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 90:6373-6376) followed by reaction with the free alcohol. Isolation of the ester products can be affected by extraction with an organic solvent, such as ethyl acetate or methylene chloride, against a mildly acidic aqueous solution; followed by base treatment of the acidic aqueous phase so as to render it basic; followed by extraction with an organic solvent, for example ethyl acetate or methylene chroride; evaporation of the organic solvent layer; and recrystalization from a solvent, such as ethanol. Optionally, the solvent can be acidified with an acid, such as HCl or acetic acid to provide a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Alternatively the crude reaction can be passed over an ion exchange column bearing sulfonic acid groups in the protonated form, washed with deionized water, and eluted with aqueous ammonia; followed by evaporation.
Suitable free acids bearing the tertiary amine are commercially available, such as 2-(N-morpholino)-propionic acid, N,N-dimethyl-beta-alanine, and the like. Non-commercial acids can be synthesized in straightforward manner via standard literature procedures.
Carbonate and carbamate prodrugs can be prepared in an analogous way. For example, amino alcohols and diamines can be activated using activating agents such as phosgene or carbonyl diimidazole, to provide an activated carbonates, which in turn can react with the alcohol and/or the phenolic hydroxy group on the compounds utilized herein to provide carbonate and carbamate prodrugs.
