Oligosaccharide inhibitors for influenza virus

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to heptasaccharides containing bivalent receptor trisaccharide determinants that bind the influenza virus of human isolates and which exhibit increased inhibitory potency.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Influenza virus binds to the erythrocytes through attachment to cell surface carbohydrates. Specifically, influenza virus envelope protein called hemagglutinin binds to a trisaccharide structure containing sialic acid, galactose and N-acetylglucosamine, and is present as the terminal structure of large carbohydrate units of cell surface glycoproteins and glycolipids. This binding is crucial for viral infection. The design of molecules containing carbohydrate structures that mimick the structures recognized by the hemagglutinin molecules and preferentially bind to the virus should inhibit the influenza virus infection. Thus such molecules may prove to be useful drugs.
In biological systems, the receptor (the hemagglutinin on the virus envelope) and the receptor ligands (the cell surface carbohydrates) are displayed in multiple copies. As a result, the interaction between a virus and the erythrocyte involves multipoint attachments between the receptor and receptor ligands. This is hard to mimick with synthetic molecules. For example, the hemagglutinins present on the influenza virus exist as trimers with three potential binding sites and also in multiple copies. Therefore the synthetic inhibitors should be capable of binding not only to the three binding sites of a single hemagglutinin trimer, but also to the adjacent hemagglutinin molecules as well.
Binding to the adjacent hemagglutinin molecules can be achieved by immobilization of sialic acid structures on a polymer back bone as has been shown, Spaltenstein et al., Am. Chem. Soc., 113, 686-687 (1991). An optimum distance of 55A was proposed for optimum binding by Glick et al, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 113, 4701-4703 (1991). However, these two studies dealt with the preparation of compounds containing only one sugar, namely, the sialic acid. However, studies by Paulson et al, J. Biol. Chem., 264, 9850-9859 (1989) showed that in addition to the sialic acid, other sugars, namely, the galactose and N-acetylglucosamine that are connected to the sialic acid are also important for viral recognition.
Sabesan et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., Vol. 108, pp. 2068-2080 (1986) teach the combined chemical and enzymatic synthesis of ten sialyloligosaccharides that occur as terminal sequences in glycoproteins and glycolipids. Sabesan et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 113, 5865-5866 (1991), disclose demonstration of increased inhibitor potency by low molecular weight, synthetic, bivalent receptor determinants containing the trisaccharide structures for the influenza virus of human isolates. The importance of cluster oligosaccharide effects for binding toward proteins is exemplified.
Spaltenstein et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., Vol. 113, pp. 686-687 (1991) have prepared polymers containing a cluster of sialic acids by polymerization of acrylic esters of sialosides. It was concluded that polyvalent derivatives of sialic acid are more effective than monomeric ones in inhibiting hemagglutination.
The present invention relates to the design of a hemagglutinin recognition molecule wherein two identical trisaccharide structures (bivalent structures) comprising sialic acid (N-acetylneuraminic acid), galactose, and N-acetylglucosamine are attached to another sugar molecule (anchoring sugar). The bivalent structures are better inhibitors of influenza virus than the monovalent structures. Also, the anchoring sugar has been pended with a functional group that upon modification can be polymerized to a macromolecule capable of inhibiting influenza virus infection.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

These heptasaccharide compounds contain bivalent receptor trisaccharide determinants. They demonstrate preferential binding to influenza virus particles and inhibit binding of the virus particles to human host cells. The present invention also provides trisaccharide and pentasaccharide compounds used in the preparation of the above heptasaccharides.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The present invention comprises heptasaccharide compounds which exhibit increased inhibitory potency to influenza virus of human isolates when compared to synthetic monovalent sialosides. The present invention further comprises other saccharide compounds used in the preparation of these heptasaccharides. The heptasaccharide compounds contain bivalent receptor trisaccharide determinants which demonstrate preferential binding to influenza virus of human isolates, thereby inhibiting binding of the virus particles to human host cells. The heptasaccharides can be polymerized to provide a polymeric inhibitor.
The influenza virus binds via its hemmagglutinins to a trisaccharide residue present on the host cell and this has been recognized as a key event in the infection processes. It is known that the hemagglutinin molecules have the potential to bind both intra and intermolecularly to the cell surface carbohydrates. It is important to understand the carbohydrate structural requirements for such binding. It has been found that the distance between the end sialic acid residues in the bivalent receptor structures affect the binding efficiency. Thus the attachment position of the trisaccharide groups in the heptasaccharide molecule which determines the distance between the end units conformationally, affects the inhibition potentency.
The compounds of the present invention comprise trisaccharides, pentasaccharides and heptasaccharides of formula I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, and VIII as defined above.

Especially preferred compounds of the present invention are the heptasaccharides 27 through 31 as named above.
The compounds of the present invention can be prepared by a combination of chemical and enzymatic methods. The monosaccharides, and the trisaccharides containing two beta-D-N-acetylglucosamine units, can be synthesized using chemical methods. To these, two galactose units can be added in one step enzymatically with UDP-galactose and galactosyl transferase to generate pentasaccharides. The pentasaccharides can be enzymatically disialylated to produce the bivalent heptasaccharides.
More specifically, 5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl .beta.-D-galactopyranoside, (monosaccharide 1), can be prepared by reacting acetobromogalactose with 5-methoxycarbonylpentanol. Monosaccharide 1 is converted to the 4,6-O-benzylidene or 2,3-isopropylidene derivative by treatment with .alpha.,.alpha.-dimethoxytoluene or 2,2-dimethoxypropane, respectively, to provide 5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (monosaccharide 3); or 5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 3,4-isopropylidene-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (monosaccharide 5) respectively. 5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 3-O-allyl-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (monosaccharide 2) can be prepared from monosaccharide 1 by selective allylation with di-n-butyltin oxide and allyl bromide. Selective blocking of the 6-hydroxyl group of monosaccharide 2 with t-butyldimethylsilyl chloride affords 5-methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 3-O-allyl-6-(t-butyl-dimethylsilyl)-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (monosaccharide 4).
Treatment of monosaccharide 3 or of monosaccharide 5 with allyl bromide and sodium hydride followed by removal of the benzylidene or the isopropylidene group with p-toluenesulfonic acid in methanol yields 5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 2 3-di-O-allyl-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (monosaccharide 8) and 5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 2,6-di-O-allyl-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (monosaccharide 6) respectively. Under the allylation conditions with sodium hydride and allyl bromide, a methyl ester attached as a tether group on the galactose can be partially converted to the allyl ester, which can not be easily separated by chromatography. However, treatment of the crude product with sodium methoxide in methanol converts the allyl ester to the methyl ester.
Finally 5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 2,4-di-O-benzoyl-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (monosaccharide 7) can be obtained in two steps from monosaccharide 4 by converting monosaccharide 4 to the 2,4-di-O-benzoate followed by simultaneous removal of the allyl and t-butyldimethyl groups. To do this the 3-O-allyl group is isomerized to the isopropyl derivative with Ir(COD)[(C.sub.6 H.sub.5)CH.sub.3 P].sub.2 PF.sub.6. Treatment of this with aqueous mercuric chloride removes both the isopropenyl and the t-butyldimethylsilyl groups.
With the exception of monosaccharide 7, all of the remaining monosaccharides discussed above have the least electron withdrawing alkyl or alkenyl groups in order to preserve the maximum reactivity of the remaining hydroxyl groups in the glycosylation reactions.
The trisaccharides of the present invention can be prepared by chemical synthesis from the monosaccharides. For example, monosaccharides 3 to 8 as defined above can be reacted with 2-deoxy-2-phthalimido-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-.alpha.-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl bromide in the presence of silver triflate and collidine to give the corresponding trisaccharides 9 to 15. These compounds are:
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 4,6-O-benzylidene-2,3-di-O-(2-deoxy-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-phthalimido-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (trisaccharide 9);
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 3-O-allyl-6-O-(t-butyl-dimethylsilyl)-2,4-di-O-(2-deoxy-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-phthalimido-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (trisaccharide 10);
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 2,6-di-O-(2-deoxy-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-phthalimido-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-3,4-O-isopropylidene-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (trisaccharide 11);
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 2,6-di-O-allyl-3,4-di-O-(2-deoxy-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-phthalimido-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (trisaccharide 12);
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 2,4-di-O-benzoyl-3,6-di-O-(2-deoxy-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-phthalimido-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (trisaccharide 13); and
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 2,3-di-O-allyl-4,6-di-O-(2-deoxy-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl-2-phthalimido-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (trisaccharide 14).
The reaction is facile for monosaccharides such as 5 and 8 which each have a primary and a secondary hydroxyl groups. The choice of the protecting groups in the monosaccharide is important. Groups for the protection of oxygen suitable for use in the present invention are acetyl, hydrogen, benzal, benzoyl, trialkylsilyl, alkyl or alkenyl. Groups for the protection of O-protected glucosamine are acetyl or acyl. Groups for the protection of nitrogen suitable for use in the present invention are acetyl and phthalimido. The choice of protecting group is dictated by synthetic convenience, and is well known by those skilled in the art. The protecting group 3-O-allyl-6-t-butyldimethylsilyl is preferred for use herein. Even though the introduction of 2-deoxy-2-phthalimdo-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl group causes severe steric crowding at the adjacent positions, still the vicinally substututed 2,3-trans-trisaccharide (trisaccharide 9) and also the cis-trisaccharide (trisaccharide 13) can be made.
Even though the monosaccharides such as 3, 4 and 6 react slowly and incompletely, only three equivalents of the bromide are recommended for use. The protected trisaccharide products comigrate with the bromide hydrolyzed product, namely 2-deoxy-2-phthalimido-3,4,6-tri-O-acetyl .alpha.,.beta.-D-glucopyranose, (a rising from excess bromide) on silica gel columns under various solvent composition conditions making their purification difficult. In these cases the impurity can be removed in subsequent steps by converting the protected trisaccharides to more polar products.
The removal of the protecting groups in trisaccharides 9 through 14 yields the completely deprotected trisaccharides 15 through 20 as follows:
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 2,3-di-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (trisaccharide 15);
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 2,4-di-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (trisaccharide 16);
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 2,6-di-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (trisaccharide 17);
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 3,4-di-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (trisaccharide 18);
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 3,6-di-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (trisaccharide 19); and
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 4,6-di-O-(2-acetamido-2-deoxy-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl)-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (trisaccharide 20).
The deprotection can be achieved using procedures commonly known in the art. For example, the di-O-benzylidene and isopropylidene groups in trisaccharides such as 9 and 11 can be removed by refluxing in methanol containing p-toluenesulfonic acid, whereas the phthalimido groups are removed with hydrazine in refluxing methanol. The irridium catalyst can be used for the isomerization of the O-allyl groups in trisaccharides such as 10, 12 and 14 to the corresponding 2-propenyl derivative which hydrolyzes upon treatment with aqueous mercuric chloride. The mercuric chloride treatment also removes the t-butyl-dimethyl group (as in trisaccharide 13) as well. Since each of the trisaccharides produce two equivalents of phthalhydrazide as an insoluble byproduct, for the purpose of convenient purification, following removal of O- and N-protecting groups, the product can be peracetylated to enable purification by silica gel chromatography. The acetate groups can be removed easily with sodium methoxide in methanol except in the case of a 3,4-substituted trisaccharide (see Example 18), where the acetate group attached to the 2-positionn of the reducing galactose can be removed by heating with sodium methoxide solution at 60.degree. C. for 48 hours.
The trisaccharides of the present invention can then be converted enzymatically to the pentasaccharides and heptasaccharides of the present invention. Trisaccharides containing two .beta.-N-acetyl-glucosamine groups can be treated with slightly more than two equivalents of UDP-galactose and bovine galactosyl transferase. This elaborates two lactosamine sequences to yield pentasaccharides. The use of phosphate resin columns (pH 6.8, 200 to 400 mesh) instead of chloride columns is desirable to obtain high purity products. The enzymatic digalactosylation requires about 24 hours and typically no monogalactosylated material is generated. When treating trisaccharides 15 through 20 above according to this procedure the pentasaccharides 21 to 26 as follows are obtained:
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 2,3-di-O-{.beta.-D-galactopyranosyl-(1.fwdarw.4)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl}-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (pentasaccharide 21);
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 2,4-di-O-{.beta.-D-galactopyranosyl-(1.fwdarw.4)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl}-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (pentasaccharide 22);
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 2,6-di-O-{.beta.-D-galactopyranosyl-(1.fwdarw.4)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl}-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (pentasaccharide 23);
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 3,4-di-O-{.beta.-D-galactopyranosyl-(1.fwdarw.4)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl}-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (pentasaccharide 24);
5-(methxyocarbonyl)pentyl 3,6-di-O-{.beta.-D-galactopyranosyl(1.fwdarw.4)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl}-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (pentasaccharide 25); and
5-(methoxycarbonyl)pentyl 4,6-di-O-{.beta.-D-galactopyranosyl(1.fwdarw.4)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-.beta.-D-glucopyranosyl}-.beta.-D-galactopyranoside (pentasaccharide 26).
The pentasaccharides of the present invention can be converted to heptasaccharides by the method of Sabesan and Paulson, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 108, 2068-2080 (1986). The pentasaccharides are treated with CMP-N-acetylneuraminic acid and galactose-.beta.-1,4-N-acetylglucosamine-.alpha.-2,6-sialyl-transferase for about 24 hours. In addition to the disialylated heptasaccharides, small amounts of monosialylated product and sialic acid may be obtained. These can be conveniently removed by absorption of the total products on a phosphate resin column. Elution with 5 mM phosphate buffer provides the monosialylated product followed by the free sialic acid (N-acetylneuraminic acid). Subsequent elution with 50 mM phosphate buffer provides highly pure disialylated material followed by elution of cytidine monophosphate. This enzymatic sialylation works well for the 2,4-, 2,6-, 3,6-, and 4,6-pentasaccharides but the 2,3-penta-saccharide reacts more slowly.
The preferred heptasaccharides of the present invention prepared from pentasaccharides 21 to 26 according to this process are as follows:

The structural identity and complete proton and carbon chemical shifts assignments of the trisaccharides, pentasaccharides and heptasacchardies of the invention can be achieved by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy.
The heptasaccharides can be evaluated as inhibitors of the influenza virus hemagglutination of the resialylated human erythrocytes. This can be done according to the procedue of Pritchett et al., J. Biol. Chem., 264, 9850-9859 (1989), which is herein incorporated by reference. Weakly binding methyl-.alpha.-D-acetylneuraminic acid can be used as a reference compound. It shows 50% inhibition at 3.50 mM concentration. Heptasaccharides having the two trisaccharides anchored at the 3- and 6-positions of the galactose exhibit as high as 10 fold increased inhibitory potency as compared to monovalent sialosides. There is a general increase in binding potency going from heptasaccharides having the trisaccharides bound at the 2- and 3-positions to that having them bound at the 3- and 6-positions. The binding drops in heptasaccharides having the trisaccharides bound at the 2- and 6-positions. Heptasaccharides having the trisaccharides bound at the 2- and 4-positions have about the same inhibitory potency as monovalent sialoside. Bovine serum albumin glycosylated with a 3,6-heptasaccharide shows even greater inhibitory potency suggesting the therapeutic potential of a macromolecule containing this heptasaccharide for influenza viral inhibition.
Thus the heptasaccharides of the present invention are useful as viral inhibitors for the inhibition of influenza virus of human isolates. The pentasaccharides of the present invention are useful as intermediates in the preparation of the heptasaccharides, and to inhibit galactose binding lectins. The trisaccharides of the present invention are useful as synthetic intermediates in the preparation of the pentasaccharides and heptasaccharides of the present invention, and to inhibit N-acetylglucosamine binding lectins. The monosaccharides of the present invention are useful as synthetic intermediates in the preparation of the trisaccharides used to prepare the pentasaccharides and heptasaccharides of the present invention.
The following examples illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit it in any manner.
In the following Examples, unless specified, all reagents were purchased from Aldrich Chemical Co. Thin layer chromatography was performed on precoated plates of Silica Gel 60 F.sub.254 (EM Science), and the spots were visualized with a spray containing 5% sulfuric acid in ethanol followed by heating. Column chromatography was done on silica Gel 60 (230-400 mesh, EM Science). Elemental analysis was performed in Galbraith Laboratories, Inc., Knoxville, Tenn. Optical rotations were measured with a Perkin-Elmer 241 polarimeter at ambient temperatures. The structural identities were established by NMR methods. .sup.1 H NMR spectra were recorded at 300 or 500 or 600 MHz (GE NMR QE-300, QE 500 or Bruker AMX 600) and the .sup.13 C-NMR spectra were recorded at 75.48 or 125.16 MHz. The hydrogen and carbon chemical shifts (Table 1) in CDCl.sub.3 are expressed relative to tetramethylsilane. For solutions of compounds in deuterium oxide or deuterated methanol, the hydrogen chemical shifts are expressed relative to HOD signal (4.80 ppm at 296.degree. K.), and the carbon chemical shifts are expressed relative to external TMS using the deuterium lock of the spectrometer, which set the chemical shifts of 1,4-dioxane at 66.9 ppm.

General Procedure For the Preparation and Purification of Sialosides
The pentasaccharide (Examples 21 to 26) and CMP-NeuAc were dissolved in 0.1M sodium cacodylate buffer (pH 6.5, 1 mL) containing Triton-CF 54 (0.1%) and bovine serum albumin (2 mg). The Galb1,4GlcNAc a2,6 sialyltransferase was added and the solution was incubated at 37.degree. C. for 24 h. The reaction mixture was then diluted to 13 mL and applied on a column (1.5.times.9 cm) of Dowex 1-X2 (PO.sub.4 .dbd. form, 200-400 mesh). The column was washed with distilled water (175 mL) and then eluted with 5 mM sodium phosphate buffer (pH 6.8). Fractions (5 mL) were assayed for sialic acid by the periodate-resorcinol procedure of Jourdian, G. W., et al., J. Biol. Chem., 246, 430-435 (1971) herein incorporated by reference. When no more sialic acid eluted out, the elution buffer was changed to 50 mM phosphate buffer (pH 6.8) when the desired disialoside started to elute out (as evidenced by periodateresorcinol procedure). These fractions containing the disialoside product, which eluted after free sialic acid, were pooled and evaporated to a dry residue. The product was then redissolved in 2 mL of water and applied on a column (1.6.times.24 cm) of Sephadex G-15 (Sigma) equilibrated and eluted with water. The fractions (1.5 mL) containing the sialyloligosaccharide, as evidenced by the periodate-resorcinol procedure, were measured for conductivity to exclude contamination by salts, pooled and lyophilized.
