Description

INTRODUCTION

SRA737 is a heterocyclic small molecule and a potent checkpoint 1 inhibitor that is currently under clinical study as a chemotherapy agent. The structure of SRA737 is:

SRA737 is also known by its IUPAC name: 5-[[4-[[morpholin-2-yl]methylamino]-5-(trifluoromethyl)-2-pyridyl]amino]pyrazine-2-carbonitrile. The existing, conventional synthesis of SRA737 is described in U.S. Pat. No. 9,663,503, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.

The synthesis of SRA737 and similar heterocyclic compounds currently employs cross-coupling reactions that require high loadings of metal complexes as catalysts and organic phosphine compounds as ligands. While these reactions are essential for rapid construction of molecular complexity, they produce undesired impurities in the intermediates and the final active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) product that are often difficult to purify. Furthermore, these reactions require careful preparations and often harsh reaction conditions, such as elevated temperature and pressure, which can undesirably increase cost for manufacturing.

Due to its molecular complexity, industrial scale manufacturing of SRA737 can be a challenging process. The requirements of multi-step synthesis, purifications, and waste management often lead to low yields of both the intermediates and the final product. Thus, concise and operationally simple synthetic processes for large scale manufacturing of SRA737 and related heterocyclic small molecules are highly desirable. There is a high demand for improved synthetic processes to produce heterocyclic compounds, such as SRA737, on industrial scales with improved atom economy, waste management, and purification process to reduce manufacturing cost.

II. General Methods to Make and Use Solvates and Synthetic Intermediates

The solvate and/or solid form compounds described herein can be prepared from readily available starting materials using the following general methods and procedures.

Briefly, a morpholine derivative (formula I or another such derivative compound possessing for instance, a differing nitrogen protecting group than Boc or a differing handle group than hydroxy) is transformed into a mesylated compound that may be crystalline. This mesylated morpholine intermediate product can then undergo nucleophilic displacement by an amino-pyridine heterocyclic compound (optionally substituted), optionally in the presence of a weak inorganic or organic base. The resulting intermediate product is then optionally purified on a silica-gel packed chromatography column or by filtration and washing or by crystallization.

The purified intermediate product can then be coupled with an amino-pyrazine compound, optionally substituted. The resulting intermediate product is precipitated out and then carried forward to be de-protected on the nitrogen atom to give the desired final product.

The starting materials for the following reactions are generally known compounds or can be prepared by known procedures or obvious modifications thereof. For example, many of the starting materials are available from commercial suppliers such as Aldrich Chemical Co. (Milwaukee, Wis., USA), Bachem (Torrance, Calif., USA), Emka-Chemce or Sigma (St. Louis, Mo., USA), CombiChem (San Diego, Calif.). Others may be prepared by procedures, or obvious modifications thereof, described in standard reference texts such as Fieser and Fieser's Reagents for Organic Synthesis, Volumes 1-15 (John Wiley, and Sons, 1991), Rodd's Chemistry of Carbon Compounds, Volumes 1-5, and Supplementals (Elsevier Science Publishers, 1989), Organic Reactions, Volumes 1-40 (John Wiley, and Sons, 1991), March's Advanced Organic Chemistry, (John Wiley, and Sons, 5th Edition, 2001), and Larock's Comprehensive Organic Transformations (VCH Publishers Inc., 1989).

It will also be appreciated that where typical process conditions (i.e., reaction temperatures, times, mole ratios of reactants, solvents, pressures, etc.) are given to make these compounds, minor modifications to these process conditions can also be used unless otherwise stated. Optimum reaction conditions may vary with the particular reactant or solvent used, but such conditions can be determined by one skilled in the art by routine optimization procedures as long as the reagents stay the same.

Additionally, as will be apparent to those skilled in the art, conventional protecting groups may be necessary to prevent certain functional groups from undergoing undesired reactions. Herein it is understood that amino, keto, thio, hydroxyl, and any other necessary protecting groups and their methods of deprotection are known in the art, such as those described in T. W. Greene and P. G. M. Wuts, Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis, Third Edition, Wiley, New York, 1999, which is incorporated in its entirety along with the references cited therein.

If the compounds described herein contain one or more chiral centers, such compounds can be prepared or isolated as pure stereoisomers, i.e., as individual enantiomers or d(l) stereoisomers, or as stereoisomer-enriched mixtures. All such stereoisomers (and enriched mixtures) are included within the scope of the present technology, unless otherwise indicated. Pure stereoisomers (or enriched mixtures) may be prepared using, for example, optically active starting materials or stereoselective reagents well known in the art. Alternatively, racemic mixtures of such compounds can be separated using, for example, chiral column chromatography, chiral resolving agents and the like.

Example 2—Deprotection of the Compound of Formula X on Small and Large Scales with Trifluoroacetic Acid

This example shows the differences in reaction profile of the deprotection of the compound of formula X on 1-gram and 10-gram scales to give the free base of SRA737 (formula VIII).

Initially, 1 gram of the compound of formula X was dissolved in DCM followed by the addition of trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and triisopropylsilane. The profile of the reaction was monitored by LC analysis, which showed that the reaction was completed after 30 minutes. The reaction mixture was then concentrated in vacuo and the resulting crude material was subjected to a DCM and toluene strip out. The crude material was then dissolved in a mixture of DCM and methanol and passed through a 10 g Biotage NH2 isolute cartridge. The product containing fractions were concentrated in vacuo to give a yellow solid. The desired product of formula VIII, as confirmed by 1H NMR analysis, was further analyzed by LC-MS and showed a purity of 94.5%. This crude material was then further purified with 10% methanol in diethyl ether to give the desired product of formula VIII with a purity of >97% in 80% yield.

This deprotection reaction was next repeated on a 10-gram scale. Similar to the 1-gram scale trial, the reaction was completed after 30 minutes. A portion of the reaction mixture was taken out and kept at room temperature overnight to examine the stability of the product in the reaction media, while the remaining mixture was concentrated in vacuo and azeotroped with toluene to give an orange oil. However, LC-MS analysis of this material showed significant degradation with a purity of 77% and two major impurities of 13% and 5% respectively. Examination of the reaction mixture that was kept overnight at room temperature showed degradation to 87% with the same impurities of 9% and 2% respectively.

The impurities formed in this 10-gram scale reaction were identified as the t-butyl amide compound of formula XIII and the corresponding t-butyl methyl imidate compound of formula XIV. Further inspection of the 1-gram reaction also showed the compound of formula XIII as an impurity but in a much lower quantity of <1%, which was easily removed by treatment with 10% methanol in diethyl ether.

Thus, this example demonstrated that the TFA/DCM deprotection condition was not applicable to large scale manufacturing of the free base of SRA737 from the compound of formula X.
