This invention pertains to processes that have utility in the construction of racemic and optically pure heterocyclic molecules that are to be screened for biological activities that would render them useful as pharmaceuticals, cosmeceuticals, pharmaceutical excipients or agrochemicals. More specifically, it pertains to the use of Ring-Closure olefin Metathesis (RCM) and Enzymatic Resolution (ER) for the production of optically pure synthetic intermediates during an organic synthesis and methods for elaboration of same.
Carbohydrates or saccharides are highly functionalized biomolecules present in plant and animal cells and tissues. These molecules play a key role in energy storage, cellular signaling and molecular recognition. Carbohydrates are critical in the early stages of inflammation and immune response and contribute to the progression of a number of diseases. In general, saccharides are poor therapeutic agents. These compounds are rapidly metabolized in the gut or the plasma and have low binding affinities to their targets. In addition, carbohydrates are difficult to synthesize and purify by conventional methods. The combination of the above drawbacks has considerably limited the use of saccharides as pharmaceuticals, cosmeceuticals, pharmaceutical excipients or agrochemicals. Such difficulties maybe overcome by the use of “carbohydrate mimetics” or optically active heterocyclic molecules that resemble, carbohydrates but have improved stability, target affinity and synthetic availability.
One strategy for increasing the stability of carbohydrate mimetics is to replace the heteroatom anomeric linkage of the carbohydrate ring system with a non-heteroatom linkage. Traditionally, these carbohydrate mimetics have been prepared by direct cleavage of the anomeric carbon-oxygen bond with a hydride equivalent, as set forth in Rolf, D. et al J. Amer. Chem. Soc. 1982, 104, 3539-3541. Such transformations are commonly carried out by reaction of the alkyl or acyl glycoside with a strong Lewis acid such as boron trifluoride etherate (BF3.Et2O), trifluoroacetic acid (CF3CO2H) and/or trimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (TMSOSO2CF3) in the presence of an ionic hydride donor such as a trialkylsilane (
Such methodologies ultimately depend on the availability of the glycoside and are thereby limited in scope. Another drawback of the existing art is that the cleavage of the anomeric carbon-oxygen bond is not stereospecific and usually yields a mixture of stereoisomers. As such, there is an obvious and immediate need for novel methodology that provides rapid access to large quantities of optically pure heterocyclic molecules such as those set forth in this invention.
Prior art preparations of carbohydrate mimetics are shown in
The optically pure carbohydrate mimetics of the instant invention are shown in
Schemes 1 to 10 on sheets 2 to 11 illustrate the chemical reactions used in making the optically pure carbohydrate mimetics of the invention.
Relative to traditional methods, efficiency is introduced into the syntheses of these carbohydrate mimetics by combining starting materials according to formulae A and D, or formulae B and E, to provide esters according to formula C. Compounds according to formula C can then react with aldehydes according to formula F to provide acyclic intermediates according to formula G. Application of a stereoselective Ring Closure olefin Metathesis (RCM) reaction to compounds according to formula G provides the 3,6-dihydro-2H-pyrans according to formulae H or I. These intermediates are subsequently transformed into optically pure stereoisomers via enzymatic resolution (Scheme 1). It is to be understood that the transformation of compounds according to formula G to optically pure compounds according to formulae H or I can also be carried out by way of an enantioselective Ring Closure olefin Metathesis (RCM) reaction.
Efficiency is also introduced into the syntheses of these carbohydrate mimetics by reduction of compounds according to formula G to compounds according to formula W. Subsequent reaction of compounds according to formula W with carbonyl compounds according to formula R provides acyclic intermediates according to formula X. Application of a stereoselective Ring Closure olefin Metathesis (RCM) reaction to compounds according to formula X provides the 3,6-dihydro-2H-pyrans according to formula S (Scheme 2). It is to be understood that the transformation of compounds according to formula X to optically pure compounds according to formula S can also be carried out by way of an enantioselective Ring Closure olefin Metathesis (RCM) reaction. When subjected to other synthetic transformations, compounds according to formula H, I and S provide a variety optically pure carbohydrate mimetics according to formulae J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, T, U, V, Y and Z (
One advantage of this method over existing state of the art is that it provides rapid access to large quantities of optically pure compounds according to formulae H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, S, T, U, V, Y and Z. Another advantage of this method is that it allows the introduction of a variety of substituents into compounds according to formulae H, I, J, K, L, M, N, O, P, Q, S, T, U, V, Y and Z.

However, some pure stereoisomers may have an optical rotation that is so slight that it is undetectable with present instrumentation. The compounds described herein may have one or more asymmetrical carbon atoms and therefore include various stereoisomers.

For example, in compounds according to formula H, the carbon atoms to which —OR9 and —CO2R1 are attached may have an R,R or S,S or S,R or R,S configuration.

The term “Amino acid” refers to any of the naturally occurring amino acids, as well as synthetic analogs and derivatives thereof. Alpha-Amino acids comprise a carbon atom to which is bonded an amino group, a carboxy group, a hydrogen atom, and a distinctive group referred to as a “side chain”. The side chains of naturally occurring amino acids are well known in the art and include, for example, hydrogen (e.g., as in glycine), alkyl (e.g., as in alanine, valine, leucine, isoleucine, proline), substituted alkyl (e.g., as in threonine, serine, methionine, cysteine, aspartic acid, asparagine, glutamic acid, glutamine, arginine, and lysine), arylalkyl (e.g., as in phenylalanine), substituted arylalkyl (e.g., as in tyrosine), heteroarylalkyl (e.g., as in tryptophan, histidine) and the like. One of skill in the art will appreciate that the term “amino acid” can also include beta-, gamma-, delta-, omega-amino acids, and the like. Unnatural amino acids are also known in the art, as set forth in, Natchus, M. G. Organic Synthesis: Theory and Applications (2001), 5, 89-196; Ager, D. J.

The particular protecting group employed is not critical.
The term “O-protected amino acid” refers to any amino acid which has a protecting group bound to the oxygen of the carboxyl functionality. This protecting group prevents reactions from occurring at the carboxyl functional group and can be removed by conventional chemical or enzymatic steps to reestablish the carboxyl functional group. The particular protecting group employed is not critical.

The term “Prodrug” refers to an agent that is converted into the parent drug in vivo. Prodrugs are often useful because, in some situations, they may be easier to administer than the parent drug. They may, for instance, be bioavailable by oral administration whereas the parent drug is not. The prodrug may also have improved solubility in pharmaceutical compositions over the parent drug. A prodrug may be converted into the parent drug by various mechanisms, including enzymatic processes and metabolic hydrolysis. See Harper, “Drug Latentiation” in Jucker, ed.
