Description
BACKGROUND

Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1, protein accession number NP_005887.2) is an enzyme whose normal function is to convert isocitrate to α-ketoglutarate. Mutated forms of this enzyme, most commonly IDH1(R132H) in which arginine 132 is mutated to histidine, are common in a variety of cancers including glioma, cholangiocarcinoma, chondrosarcoma, and AML. The IDH1(R132H, R132C, R132S) mutation and similar IDH1 mutations are gain-of-function mutations which result in the enzyme gaining the ability to catalyze the NADPH-dependent reduction of α-ketoglutarate to R-2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG). Elevated levels of 2HG have been shown to lead to an elevated risk of brain tumors in humans. 2HG is described as an oncometabolite, and a proposed mode of action is that it leads to hypermethylation of histones and causing inhibited cell differentiation and the development of cancerous cells.


Mutant IDH1 is an attractive target for anti-cancer therapeutics. Inhibition of mutant IDH1 reduces levels of 2HG. It is expected that lower 2HG levels will result in fewer undifferentiated cancer cells. Furthermore, inhibition of mutant IDH1 is expected to have little effect on non-cancerous cells, as these cells do not express the IDH1 mutation resulting in lower toxicity than typical cytotoxic anticancer agents.


For these reasons mutant IDH1 inhibitors are needed as anti-cancer therapeutics. This disclosure provides mutant IDH1 inhibitors and possesses additional advantages which are set forth in the following descriptions


SUMMARY

Described herein are mutant IDH1 inhibitors, their methods of manufacture, compositions containing the described compounds, and methods of using the described compounds. In a first aspect, a compound of Formula I and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts of a compound of Formula I is provided.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Terminology

Compounds are described using standard nomenclature. Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as is commonly understood by one of skill in the art to which this invention belongs.


The terms “a” and “an” do not denote a limitation of quantity, but rather denote the presence of at least one of the referenced items. The term “or” means “and/or.” The terms “comprising,” “having,” “including,” and “containing” are to be construed as open-ended terms (i.e., meaning “including, but not limited to”).


Recitation of ranges of values are merely intended to serve as a shorthand method of referring individually to each separate value falling within the range, unless otherwise indicated herein, and each separate value is incorporated into the specification as if it were individually recited herein. The endpoints of all ranges are included within the range and independently combinable.


All methods described herein can be performed in any suitable order unless otherwise indicated herein or otherwise clearly contradicted by context. The use of any and all examples, or exemplary language (e.g., “such as”), is intended for illustration and does not pose a limitation on the scope of the disclosure unless otherwise claimed. No language in the specification should be construed as indicating any non-claimed element as essential to the practice of the invention. Unless defined otherwise, technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as is commonly understood by one of skill in the art of this disclosure.


Furthermore, the disclosure encompasses all variations, combinations, and permutations in which one or more limitations, elements, clauses, and descriptive terms from one or more of the listed claims are introduced into another claim. For example, any claim that is dependent on another claim can be modified to include one or more limitations found in any other claim that is dependent on the same base claim. Where elements are presented as lists. e.g., in Markush group format, each subgroup of the elements is also disclosed, and any element(s) can be removed from the group.


All compounds are understood to include all possible isotopes of atoms occurring in the compounds. Isotopes include those atoms having the same atomic number but different mass numbers. By way of general example, and without limitation, isotopes of hydrogen include tritium and deuterium and isotopes of carbon include 11C, 13C, and 14C.


Formula I includes all pharmaceutically acceptable salts of Formula I.


Formula II includes all pharmaceutically acceptable salts of Formula II and all subformulae such as Formula III.


The opened ended term “comprising” includes the intermediate and closed terms “consisting essentially of” and “consisting of.”


The term “substituted” means that any one or more hydrogens on the designated atom or group is replaced with a selection from the indicated group, provided that the designated atom's normal valence is not exceeded. When the substituent is oxo (i.e., ═O), then 2 hydrogens on the atom are replaced. When aromatic moieties are substituted by an oxo group, the aromatic ring is replaced by the corresponding partially unsaturated ring. For example a pyridyl group substituted by oxo is a pyridone. Combinations of substituents and/or variables are permissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds or useful synthetic intermediates. A stable compound or stable structure is meant to imply a compound that is sufficiently robust to survive isolation from a reaction mixture, and subsequent formulation into an effective therapeutic agent.


Suitable groups that may be present on an “optionally substituted” position include, but are not limited to, e.g., halogen, cyano, hydroxyl, amino, nitro, oxo, azido, alkanoyl (such as a C2-C6 alkanoyl group such as acyl or the like (—(C═O)alkyl)); carboxamido; alkylcarboxamide; alkyl groups, alkoxy groups, alkylthio groups including those having one or more thioether linkages, alkylsulfinyl groups including those having one or more sulfinyl linkages, alkylsulfonyl groups including those having one or more sulfonyl linkages, mono- and di-aminoalkyl groups including groups having one or more N atoms, all of the foregoing optional alkyl substituents may have one or more methylene groups replaced by an oxygen or —NH—, and have from about 1 to about 8, from about 1 to about 6, or from 1 to about 4 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl; phenyl; phenylalkyl with benzyl being an exemplary phenylalkyl group, phenylalkoxy with benzyloxy being an exemplary phenylalkoxy group.

A significant change is any detectable change that is statistically significant in a standard parametric test of statistical significance such as Student's T-test, where p<0.05.


Chemical Description


Compounds of Formula I or Formula II may contain one or more asymmetric elements such as stereogenic centers, stereogenic axes and the like, e.g., asymmetric carbon atoms, so that the compounds can exist in different stereoisomeric forms. These compounds can be, for example, racemates or optically active forms. For compounds with two or more asymmetric elements, these compounds can additionally be mixtures of diastereomers. For compounds having asymmetric centers, all optical isomers in pure form and mixtures thereof are encompassed. In these situations, the single enantiomers, i.e., optically active forms can be obtained by asymmetric synthesis, synthesis from optically pure precursors, or by resolution of the racemates. Resolution of the racemates can also be accomplished, for example, by conventional methods such as crystallization in the presence of a resolving agent, or chromatography, using, for example a chiral HPLC column. All forms are contemplated herein regardless of the methods used to obtain them.


All forms (for example solvates, optical isomers, enantiomeric forms, tautomers, polymorphs, free compound and salts) of an active agent may be employed either alone or in combination.


The term “chiral” refers to molecules, which have the property of non-superimposability of the mirror image partner.


“Stereoisomers” are compounds, which have identical chemical constitution, but differ with regard to the arrangement of the atoms or groups in space.


A “diastereomer” is a stereoisomer with two or more centers of chirality and whose molecules are not mirror images of one another. Diastereomers have different physical properties, e.g., melting points, boiling points, spectral properties, and reactivities. Mixtures of diastereomers may separate under high resolution analytical procedures such as electrophoresis, crystallization in the presence of a resolving agent, or chromatography, using, for example a chiral HPLC column.


“Enantiomers” refer to two stereoisomers of a compound, which are non-superimposable mirror images of one another. A 50:50 mixture of enantiomers is referred to as a racemic mixture or a racemate, which may occur where there has been no stereoselection or stereospecificity in a chemical reaction or process.


Stereochemical definitions and conventions used herein generally follow S. P. Parker, Ed., McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Chemical Terms (1984) McGraw-Hill Book Company, New York; and Eliel, E. and Wilen, S., Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds (1994) John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York. Many organic compounds exist in optically active forms, i.e., they have the ability to rotate the plane of plane-polarized light. In describing an optically active compound, the prefixes D and L or R and S are used to denote the absolute configuration of the molecule about its chiral center(s). The prefixes d and 1 or (+) and (−) are employed to designate the sign of rotation of plane-polarized light by the compound, with (−) or 1 meaning that the compound is levorotatory. A compound prefixed with (+) or d is dextrorotatory.


A “racemic mixture” or “racemate” is an equimolar (or 50:50) mixture of two enantiomeric species, devoid of optical activity. A racemic mixture may occur where there has been no stereoselection or stereospecificity in a chemical reaction or process.


“Tautomers” or “tautomeric forms” are constitutional isomers that readily interconvert, commonly by the migration of a hydrogen atom combined with a switch of a single bond and a double bond.


“Pharmaceutically acceptable salts” include derivatives of the disclosed compounds in which the parent compound is modified by making inorganic and organic, non-toxic, acid or base addition salts thereof. The salts of the present compounds can be synthesized from a parent compound that contains a basic or acidic moiety by conventional chemical methods. Generally, such salts can be prepared by reacting free acid forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate base (such as Na, Ca, Mg, or K hydroxide, carbonate, bicarbonate, or the like), or by reacting free base forms of these compounds with a stoichiometric amount of the appropriate acid. Such reactions are typically carried out in water or in an organic solvent, or in a mixture of the two. Generally, non-aqueous media such as ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol, or acetonitrile are used, where practicable. Salts of the present compounds further include solvates of the compounds and of the compound salts.


Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, mineral or organic acid salts of basic residues such as amines; alkali or organic salts of acidic residues such as carboxylic acids; and the like. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts include the conventional non-toxic salts and the quaternary ammonium salts of the parent compound formed, for example, from non-toxic inorganic or organic acids. For example, conventional non-toxic acid salts include those derived from inorganic acids such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, sulfamic, phosphoric, nitric and the like; and the salts prepared from organic acids such as acetic, propionic, succinic, glycolic, stearic, lactic, malic, tartaric, citric, ascorbic, pamoic, maleic, hydroxymaleic, phenylacetic, glutamic, benzoic, salicylic, mesylic, esylic, besylic, sulfanilic, 2-acetoxybenzoic, fumaric, toluenesulfonic, methanesulfonic, ethane disulfonic, oxalic, isethionic, HOOC—(CH2)n—COOH where n is 0-4, and the like. Lists of additional suitable salts may be found, e.g., in G. Steffen Paulekuhn, et al., Journal of Medicinal Chemistry 2007, 50, 6665 and Handbook of Pharmaceutically Acceptable Salts: Properties, Selection and Use, P. Heinrich Stahl and Camille G. Wemuth Editors, Wiley-VCH, 2002.

Treatment Methods


The compounds of Formula I, Formula II, or Formula III or a salt thereof, as well as pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, are useful for treating cancer, including effecting tumor regression in vivo. The method of treating cancer or effecting tumor regression comprises providing to a patient an effective amount of a compound of Formula I, Formula II, or Formula III. In an embodiment the patient is a mammal, and more specifically a human. The disclosure also provides methods of treating non-human patients such as companion animals, e.g. cats, dogs, and livestock animals. An effective amount of a pharmaceutical composition may be an amount sufficient to inhibit the progression of cancer or a cancerous tumor; or cause a regression of a cancer or a cancerous tumor.


An effective amount of a compound or pharmaceutical composition described herein will also provide a sufficient concentration of a compound of Formula I, Formula II, or Formula III when administered to a patient. A sufficient concentration is a concentration of the compound in the patient's body necessary to combat the disorder. Such an amount may be ascertained experimentally, for example by assaying blood concentration of the compound, or theoretically, by calculating bioavailability.


Methods of treatment include providing certain dosage amounts of a compound of Formula I, Formula II, or Formula III to a patient. Dosage levels of each compound of from about 0.1 mg to about 140 mg per kilogram of body weight per day are useful in the treatment of the above-indicated conditions (about 0.5 mg to about 7 g per patient per day). The amount of compound that may be combined with the carrier materials to produce a single dosage form will vary depending upon the patient treated and the particular mode of administration. Dosage unit forms will generally contain between from about 1 mg to about 500 mg of each active compound. In certain embodiments 25 mg to 500 mg, or 25 mg to 200 mg of a compound of Formula I, Formula II, or Formula III are provided daily to a patient. Frequency of dosage may also vary depending on the compound used and the particular disease treated. However, for treatment of most diseases and disorders, a dosage regimen of 4 times daily or less can be used and in certain embodiments a dosage regimen of 1 or 2 times daily is used.


The compounds of Formula I, Formula II, or Formula III may be used to treat cancers and effect regression of tumors, including cancerous tumors. In certain embodiments, the patient is suffering from a cell proliferative disorder or disease. The cell proliferative disorder can be cancer, tumor (cancerous or benign), neoplasm, neovascularization, or melanoma. Cancers for treatment include both solid and disseminated cancers. Exemplary solid cancers (tumors) that may be treated by the methods provided herein include e.g. cancers of the lung, prostate, breast, liver, colon, breast, kidney, pancreas, brain, skin including malignant melanoma and Kaposi's sarcoma, testes or ovaries, carcinoma, kidney cancer (renal cell), and sarcoma.

Particularly included herein are methods of treating cancer by providing a compound of Formula I, Formula II, or Formula III to a patient wherein the cancer is a solid tumor or disseminated cancer.


Further included are methods of treating cancer by providing a compound of Formula I, Formula II, or Formula III to a patient wherein the cancer is selected from glioma (glioblastoma), acute myelogenous leukemia, acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic/myeloproliferative neoplasms, sarcoma, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, astrocytoma, melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer, cholangiocarcinomas, chondrosarcoma, or colon cancer.


It will be understood, however, that the specific dose level for any particular patient will depend upon a variety of factors including the activity of the specific compound employed, the age, body weight, general health, sex, diet, time of administration, route of administration, and rate of excretion, drug combination and the severity of the particular disease undergoing therapy.


A compound of Formula I, Formula II, or Formula III may be administered singularly (i.e., sole therapeutic agent of a regime) to treat diseases and conditions such as undesired cell proliferation, cancer, and/or tumor growth or may be administered in combination with another active agent. One or more compounds of Formula I, Formula II, or Formula III may be administered in coordination with a regime of one or more other chemotherapeutic agents such as an antineoplastic drug, e.g., an alkylating agent (e.g., mechloroethamine, chlorambucil, cyclophosamide, melphalan, or ifosfamide), an antimetabolite such as a folate antagonist (e.g., methotrexate), a purine antagonist (e.g. 6-mercaptopurine) or a pyrimidine antagonist (e.g., 5-fluorouracil). Other, non-limiting examples of chemotherapeutic agents that might be used in coordination with one or more compounds of Formula I, Formula II, or Formula III include taxanes and topoisomerase inhibitors. In addition, other non-limiting examples of active therapeutics include biological agents, such as monoclonal antibodies or IgG chimeric molecules, that achieve their therapeutic effect by specifically binding to a receptor or ligand in a signal transduction pathway associated with cancer (e.g. therapeutic antibodies directed against CD20 (e.g. rituximab) or against VEGF (e.g. bevacizumab)).


Methods of treatment provided herein are also useful for treatment of mammals other than humans, including for veterinary applications such as to treat horses and livestock e.g. cattle, sheep, cows, goats, swine and the like, and pets (companion animals) such as dogs and cats.


For diagnostic or research applications, a wide variety of mammals will be suitable subjects including rodents (e.g. mice, rats, hamsters), rabbits, primates and swine such as inbred pigs and the like. Additionally, for in vitro applications, such as in vitro diagnostic and research applications, body fluids (e.g., blood, plasma, serum, cellular interstitial fluid, saliva, feces and urine) and cell and tissue samples of the above subjects will be suitable for use.


In an embodiment, the invention provides a method of treating a cancer disorder in a patient identified as in need of such treatment, the method comprising providing to the patient an effective amount of a compound of Formula I, Formula II, or Formula III. The compounds and salts of Formula I, Formula II, or Formula III provided herein may be administered alone, or in combination with one or more other active agent.


In an embodiment, the cancer to be treated is characterized by a mutant allele of IDH1 wherein the IDH1 mutation results in a new ability of the enzyme to catalyze the NADPH-dependent reduction of α-ketoglutarate to R(−)-2-hydroxyglutarate in a subject. In one aspect of this embodiment, the mutant IDH1 has an R132X mutation. In one aspect of this embodiment, the R132X mutation is selected from R132H, R132C, R132L, R132V, R132S and R132G. In another aspect, the R132X mutation is R132H or R132C. In yet another aspect, the R132X mutation is R132H.


In one aspect of this embodiment, the efficacy of cancer treatment is monitored by measuring the levels of 2HG in the subject. Typically levels of 2HG are measured prior to treatment, wherein an elevated level is indicative of the need to use a compound of Formula I to treat the cancer. Once the elevated levels are established, the level of 2HG is determined during the course of and/or following termination of treatment to establish efficacy. In certain embodiments, the level of 2HG is only determined during the course of and/or following termination of treatment. A reduction of 2HG levels during the course of treatment and following treatment is indicative of efficacy. Similarly, a determination that 2HG levels are not elevated during the course of or following treatment is also indicative of efficacy. Typically, these 2HG measurements will be utilized together with other well-known determinations of efficacy of cancer treatment, such as reduction in number and size of tumors and/or other cancer-associated lesions, improvement in the general health of the subject, and alterations in other biomarkers that are associated with cancer treatment efficacy. In different embodiments 2HG can be detected in a sample by direct measurement, or by measurement of derivatives or metabolites, such as by HPLC methods.

General Methods

All air- or moisture-sensitive reactions were performed under positive pressure of nitrogen with oven-dried glassware. Anhydrous solvents or reagents such as dichloromethane, N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), acetonitrile, methanol, and triethylamine were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. Preparative purification was performed on a Waters semi-preparative HPLC system. The column used was a Phenomenex Luna C18 (5 micron, 30×75 mm) at a flow rate of 45 mL/min. The mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile and water (each containing 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid). A gradient of 10% to 50% acetonitrile over 8 minutes was used during the purification. Fraction collection was triggered by UV detection (220 nM). Analytical analysis was performed on an Agilent LC/MS (Agilent Technologies, Santa Clara, Calif.). Purity analysis was determined using a 7 minute gradient of 4% to 100% acetonitrile (containing 0.025% trifluoroacetic acid) and water (containing 0.05% trifluoroacetic acid) with an 8 minute run time at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. A Phenomenex Luna C18 column (3 micron, 3×75 mm) was used at a temperature of 50° C. using an Agilent Diode Array Detector. Mass determination was performed using an Agilent 6130 mass spectrometer with electrospray ionization in the positive mode. 1H NMR spectra were recorded on Varian 400 MHz spectrometers. Chemical shifts are reported in ppm with non-deuterated solvent (DMSO-h6 at 2.50 ppm) as internal standard for DMSO-d6 solutions. All of the analogs tested in the biological assays have a purity greater than 95% based on LCMS analysis. High resolution mass spectrometry was recorded on Agilent 6210 Time-of-Flight LC/MS system. A gradient of 4% to 100% acetonitrile (containing 0.025% trifluoroacetic acid) and water (containing 0.05% trifluoroacetic acid) with a 4.5 minute run time at a flow rate of 1 mL/min was used. An Agilent Extend-C18 column (3.5 micron, 4.6×100 mm) was used at a temperature of 50° C. using an Agilent Diode Array Detector. Confirmation of molecular formulae was accomplished using electrospray ionization in the positive mode with the Agilent Masshunter software (version B.02).

At the end of the reaction, 10 mL of EtOAc was added, concentrated with reduced pressure. The residue was purified by passing through a silica gel column to give the ethyl 5-((4-(4-chlorophenyl)thiazol-2-yl)carbamoyl)-1-(2,6-diethylphenyl)-4-hydroxy-2-methyl-6-oxo-1,6-dihydropyridine-3-carboxylate (60% yield); LCMS: m/z (M+H)+=566.0.


Example 2. Enzymatic Assays

Assays were conducted in a 1536-well black solid-bottom plate with a final assay volume of 9 μL. The depletion of the cofactor NADPH by the mutant IDH1 enzyme was coupled to a second enzyme diaphorase and its corresponding substrate resazurin.


Specifically, for IDH1 R132H, 3 μL of enzyme (4 mM β-ME, 0.0005 mg/mL IDH1 R132H, 150 mM NaCl, 20 mM Tris pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.05% BSA) were added to the plate, followed by the addition of 23 nL of test compound in DMSO. The plate was lidded and incubated at room temperature for 30 minutes at which time 3 μL of substrate were added (0.016 mM NADPH, 2 mM α-KG, 150 mM NaCl, 20 mM Tris pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.05% BSA). This reaction was incubated at room-temperature for 60 minutes at which time the detection mix was added (0.06 mg/mL diaphorase, 0.036 mM resazurin, 150 mM NaCl, 20 mM Tris pH 7.5, 10 mM MgCl2, 0.05% BSA). After a 5-minute incubation, the fluorescence generated by the conversion of resazurin to resorufin was detected (ex 544 nm, emission 590 nm).


For IDH1 R132C, 3 μL of enzyme (0.00032 mg/mL IDH1 R132H, 10% glycerol, 50 mM potassium phosphate pH 6.5, 5 mM MgCl2, 0.03% BSA) were added to the plate, followed by the addition of 23 nL of test compound in DMSO. The plate was lidded and incubated at room temperature for 30 minutes at which time 3 μL of substrate were added (0.012 mM NADPH, 0.6 mM α-KG, 10% glycerol, 50 mM potassium phosphate pH 6.5, 5 mM MgCl2, 0.03% BSA). This reaction was incubated at room-temperature for 105 minutes at which time the detection mix was added (0.03 mg/mL diaphorase, 0.03 mM resazurin, 10% glycerol, 50 mM potassium phosphate pH 6.5, 5 mM MgCl2, 0.03% BSA). After a 5-minute incubation, the fluorescence generated by the conversion of resazurin to resorufin was detected (ex 544 nm, emission 590 nm).


Example 3. Cell-Based Assays

Cell-based 2HG quantification assays were conducted in 96-well clear plates with a final assay volume of 100 μL. 2HG levels in cultured cells were determined using LC/MS-based detection.


Briefly, 4,000 cells/well (either transgenic U87 cells expressing mutant R132H IDH1, or HT1080 cells endogenously expressing the R132C mutant IDH1) were plated in 96-well clear tissue culture plates, and allowed to attached overnight at 37° C. The overlaying media was then removed and replaced with 100 μL fresh RPMI (10% FBS, no phenol red) containing titrations of compound, and incubated at 37° C. for 48 hours. Following incubation, 75 μL of the overlaying media was removed for 2HG analysis and snap-frozen on dry ice.


Samples were thawed, mixed with 2× volume of 100% acetonitrile, and centrifuged at 4,000 rpm for 15 minutes at 4° C. The resulting supernatant was collected to assess 2-hydroxyglutarate levels on a RF-MS system. The RF-MS system consists of RapidFire RF200 system (Agilent, Santa Clara, Calif.) interfaced with an API4000 mass spectrometer (AB Sciex, Foster City, Calif.). A Zymark Twister robotic arm is present to handle standard microtiter plates. The entire system is run with RapidFire software and Analyst software for the RF200 system and the mass spectrometer, respectively. The mobile phase consisted of 0.1% formic acid in 100% acetonitrile (solvent A) and 0.1% formic acid in water (solvent B). Samples were aspirated directly from 384-well plates into a 10 μL sample loop, and passed through an in-line purification SPE system with graphite carbon cartridges (Agilent) with solvent A at a flow rate of 1.5 mL/min for 1 s. After the de-salting step, analyte retained on the cartridge was eluted to the mass spectrometer with solvent B at a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min for 8 s. The cartridge was re-equilibrated with solvent A at a flow rate of 1.5 mL/min for 0.5 s. In total, the entire sampling cycle was 10 s per well. Each metabolite can be monitored by negative electrospray ionization on an API4000 triple-quadrupole mass spectrometer operating in multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode, with MS parameters optimized on infused metabolite standard solutions. Metabolites can be quantified by comparison of peak areas with pure metabolite standards at known concentration.


2HG metabolite levels were then determined and quantified using a 2HG standard curve, and % inhibition of 2HG was production was calculated using vehicle-treated and media-only controls.


Example 4. Additional Compounds

Table 1 shows compounds of Example 1 with biological and other data, and shows additional compounds prepared by the methods shown in Example 1. Hindered rotation as well as solvent peaks (DMSO and water) both complicate NMR signals and hide some proton resonances in many of the spectra. Table 2 shows further additional compounds which could be prepared by the methods shown in Example 1. Routine changes in starting materials and reaction conditions, readily apparent to those of one skilled in the art, were used to make the particular compounds disclosed in Table 1. An “A” is used to denote compounds with an IC50 less than 0.3 micromolar, a “B” indicates compound with an IC50 between 0.3 micromolar and 1.0 micromolar, a “C” denotes compounds with an IC50 between 1.0 micromolar and 5.0 micromolar, a “D” denotes compounds with an IC50 between 5.0 micromolar and 20 micromolar, and an “E” denotes compounds with an IC50 greater than 20 micromolar. A standard enzymatic inhibition assay, such as the assay of Example 2, is used to determine the IC50's for the compounds.
