Abstract

Description

The present invention relates to novel phenethylamide derivatives and their heterocyclic analogues of formula (I) and their use as pharmaceuticals. The invention also concerns related aspects including processes for the preparation of the compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing one or more compounds of formula (I), and especially their use as orexin receptor antagonists.


Orexins (orexin A or OX-A and orexin B or OX-B) are novel neuropeptides found in 1998 by two research groups, orexin A is a 33 amino acid peptide and orexin B is a 28 amino acid peptide (Sakurai T. et al., Cell, 1998, 92, 573-585). Orexins are produced in discrete neurons of the lateral hypothalamus and bind to G-protein-coupled receptors (OX1 and OX2 receptors). The orexin-1 receptor (OX1) is selective for OX-A, and the orexin-2 receptor (OX2) is capable to bind OX-A as well as OX-B. Orexins are found to stimulate food consumption in rats suggesting a physiological role for these peptides as mediators in the central feedback mechanism that regulates feeding behavior (Sakurai T. et al., Cell, 1998, 92, 573-585). On the other hand, it was also observed that orexins regulate states of sleep and wakefulness opening potentially novel therapeutic approaches to narcolepsy as well as insomnia and other sleep disorders (Chemelli R. M. et al., Cell, 1999, 98, 437-451).


Orexin receptors are found in the mammalian brain and may have numerous implications in pathologies as known from the literature.


The present invention provides phenethylamide derivatives and their heterocyclic analogues, which are non-peptide antagonists of human orexin receptors. These compounds are in particular of potential use in the treatment of e.g. eating disorders, drinking disorders, sleep disorders, or cognitive dysfunctions in psychiatric and neurologic disorders.


Up to now, several low molecular weight compounds are known having a potential to antagonise either specifically OX1 or OX2, or both receptors at the same time. Piperidine derivatives useful as orexin receptor antagonists are disclosed in WO01/096302. Benzamide derivatives are disclosed in WO03/037847. Pyrimidine derivatives are disclosed in WO05/075458.


The present invention describes for the first time phenethylamide derivatives and their heterocyclic analogues of formula (I) as orexin receptor antagonists.

Any reference to a compound of formula (I) is to be understood as referring also to the salts (and especially the pharmaceutically acceptable salts) of such a compound, as appropriate and expedient.


The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salts” refers to non-toxic, inorganic or organic acid and/or base addition salts. Reference can be made to “Salt selection for basic drugs”, Int. J. Pharm. 1986, 33, 201-217.


The present invention also includes isotopically labelled, especially 2H (deuterium) labelled compounds of formula (I), which compounds are identical to the compounds of formula (I) except that one or more atoms have each been replaced by an atom having the same atomic number but an atomic mass different from the atomic mass usually found in nature. Isotopically labelled, especially 2H (deuterium) labelled compounds of formula (I) and salts thereof are within the scope of the present invention. Substitution of hydrogen with the heavier isotope 2H (deuterium) may lead to greater metabolic stability, resulting e.g. in increased in-vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements, or may lead to reduced inhibition of cytochrome P450 enzymes, resulting e.g. in an improved safety profile. In one embodiment of the invention, the compounds of formula (I) are not isotopically labelled, or they are labelled only with one or more deuterium atoms. In a sub-embodiment, the compounds of formula (I) are not isotopically labelled at all. Isotopically labelled compounds of formula (I) may be prepared in analogy to the methods described hereinafter, but using the appropriate isotopic variation of suitable reagents or starting materials.

Starting from acids (36) the respective amides (37) can be obtained by standard amide-coupling reactions with an amine R3NH2 using for example a coupling reagent like TBTU in the presence of a base like DIPEA in a solvent like DMF. The obtained amides (37) can be reduced to the desired amine (45) (R1=R2=H) by reduction of the amide-function with a reducing agent like LAH in a solvent like THF at elevated temperatures. Alternatively 2-oxo-acetamide derivatives (39) are prepared from compounds (38), wherein A-H represents an indole derivative, by reaction with oxalyl chloride in a solvent like ether and subsequent addition of an amine R3NH2. The amides (39) can be reduced to the respective amines (45) (R1=R2=H) or, in case R3 represents benzyl, (41) (R1=R2=H) by reduction with a reducing agent such as LAH in a solvent like THF at elevated temperatures. An alternative pathway to amines (41) is the reductive amination of the primary amines (40), wherein A preferably represents an unsubstituted or substituted phenyl, with benzaldehyde in presence or absence of molecular sieves in a solvent like MeOH and subsequent reduction with a reducing agent like sodium borohydride. Amines (41) can be transferred to tertiary amines (42) in either an alkylation reaction with alkyl halides R3Hal (Hal=Cl, Br, or I) or alkyl sulfonates like R3OS(O)2CF3; or in a reductive amination reaction with an aldehyde in the presence of a reducing agent like NaBH(OAc)3 in a solvent like DCM with or without addition of water. By removal of the benzyl group of amines (42) in a hydrogenation reaction using a catalyst like Pd/C or the like in a solvent like EtOH under a hydrogen atmosphere the desired amines (45) are obtained. In still another approach amines (45) can be obtained by either reductive amination of primary amines (40) with an aldehyde in a solvent like MeOH using a reducing agent like NaBH4 or by alkylation of amines (40) with an alkyl halide (especially an alkyl iodide) in the presence of a base like TEA or DIPEA in a solvent like THF or DMF with or without addition of MeOH at elevated temperatures of around 50° C. to 60° C. In addition, amines (45) are prepared by reduction of amides (44) with a reducing agent like borane (preferably as a THF-complex) in a solvent like THF at elevated temperatures (preferably reflux). The amides (44) can be obtained from amines (43) and the respective acids Ra—COOH using known amide coupling conditions or by reaction of (43) with an ester derivative Ra—COOR(R represents methyl or ethyl) in the presence of a base like TEA in a solvent like MeOH.


Amines (40), wherein R1 represents hydrogen and R2 represents hydrogen [identical to amines (43)] or (C1-4)alkyl, can be prepared by reaction of an aldehyde A-CHO (46) with the respective nitroalkane in the presence of a base like n-butylamine and of an acid like acetic acid at a temperature of around 95° C. followed by reduction of the obtained nitro-vinyl derivative (47) (scheme 11). The reduction may be performed with a reducing agent like LAH in the presence of conc sulfuric acid in a solvent like THF under heating or by a hydrogenation reaction using a catalyst like Pd/C in the presence of aqueous hydrochloric acid in a solvent like EtOH.

Amines (40), wherein R1 represents hydroxy, are commercially available or may be prepared from aldehydes (46) by reaction with trimethylsilyl cyanide in the presence of a Lewis acid like zinc iodide in a solvent like DCM and subsequent reduction with a reducing agent like LAH in a solvent like ether (e.g. R. Viswanathan et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2003, 125, 163-168 or K. Kirk et al. J. Med. Chem. 1986, 29, 1982-86) or with potassium cyanide in the presence of a 18-crown-6 and subsequent reduction with LAH (J. Swenton et al. J. Org. Chem. 1990, 55, 2019-26). Alternatively amines (40) (R1=OH) may be obtained by ring opening of aryl-epoxides with an azide source like sodium azide and subsequent hydrogenation with a catalyst like PtO2 in a solvent like MeOH (A. Cordova et al. Chemistry 2004, 10, 3673-84).


Pyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid derivatives of formula B—COOH are for instance synthesised according to scheme 12.

By reaction of β-keto ester derivatives (23a) with N,N-dimethylformamid-dimethylacetale in a solvent like cyclohexane at reflux the respective dimethylamino-acrylic ester derivatives (48) are obtained which are transformed to pyrimidine derivatives (49) by treatment with the respective amidine hydrochloride (like formamidine hydrochloride or acetamidine hydrochloride) in the presence of a base like sodium ethylate in a solvent like ethanol at reflux. By saponification of the ester (49) with a base like NaOH in a solvent or solvent mixture like water and methanol the respective pyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid derivatives are obtained.


Besides, the term “room temperature” as used herein refers to a temperature of around 25° C.


Unless used regarding temperatures, the term “around” placed before a numerical value “X” refers in the current application to an interval extending from X minus 10% of X to X plus 10% of X, and preferably to an interval extending from X minus 5% of X to X plus 5% of X. In the particular case of temperatures, the term “around” placed before a temperature “Y” refers in the current application to an interval extending from the temperature Y minus 10° C. to Y plus 10° C., and preferably to an interval extending from Y minus 5° C. to Y plus 5° C.


Whenever the word “between” is used to describe a numerical range, it is to be understood that the end points of the indicated range are explicitly included in the range. For example: if a temperature range is described to be between 40° C. and 80° C., this means that the end points 40° C. and 80° C. are included in the range or if a variable is defined as being an integer between 1 and 4, this means that the variable is the integer 1, 2, 3, or 4.

embedded image


In an inert atmosphere, dry ethanol (50 ml) was placed in a round-bottomed flask and a solution of sodium ethylate (21% in ethanol; 14 ml) was added, followed by the addition of acetamidine hydrochloride (3.7 g; 37 mmol). Stirring was continued for 30 minutes, then the precipitated solid was filtered off. The filtercake was washed with ethanol (15 ml). This solution was carefully added to a solution of 2-benzoyl-3-dimethylamino-acrylic acid ethyl ester (7.2 g; 25 mmol) in ethanol (100 ml). The resulting reaction mixture was refluxed overnight, cooled to rt and the solvent was evaporated to give 4.53 g of 2-methyl-4-phenyl-pyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid ethyl ester as a yellow oil which was used in the next step without further purification. LC-MS (C): tR=0.95 min; [M+H]+=243.37.

embedded image


2-Methyl-4-phenyl-pyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (4.5 g; 18.7 mmol) was dissolved in methanol (30 ml) followed by the addition of aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (2M; 18 ml). Stirring was continued for 4 h. The reaction mixture was then concentrated, the residue diluted with water followed by the addition of aqueous hydrochloric acid (2M) to pH=1-2. Stirring was continued for 1 h. The precipitate was filtered off and washed with diethylether to give 2.42 g of 2-methyl-4-phenyl-pyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid as a white solid. LC-MS (C): tR=0.74 min; [M+H]+=215.47.

B.3 Synthesis of Compounds of Formula (I) by Suzuki Reaction (General Procedure)



embedded image


A mixture of the respective bromo-heterocyclyl-carboxylic amide derivative (0.029 mmol) and the respective boronic acid derivative (1.0-1.2 eq) is dissolved (or suspended) in a mixture of toluene (0.20 mL) and EtOH (0.20 mL). A freshly prepared aqueous Na2CO3 solution (2.0 M, 0.30 mL) is added and argon is passed through the mixture to remove oxygen. Tetrakis(triphenylphosphine)palladium(0) (1.05 mg) is added under argon and the mixture is vigorously stirred at around 75° C. until LC-MS indicated complete reaction (45 to 300 min). DMF (1.0 mL) is added and the mixture is purified by prep. HPLC (basic conditions) to give the desired product.

II. Biological assays


In Vitro Assay

The orexin receptor antagonistic activity of the compounds of formula (I) is determined in accordance with one of the following experimental methods.


Experimental Method:
Intracellular Calcium Measurements:

Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells expressing the human orexin-1 receptor and the human orexin-2 receptor, respectively, are grown in culture medium (Ham F-12 with L-Glutamine) containing 300 μg/ml G418, 100 U/ml penicillin, 100 μg/ml streptomycin and 10% heat inactivated fetal calf serum (FCS). The cells are seeded at 20,000 cells/well into 384-well black clear bottom sterile plates (Greiner). The seeded plates are incubated overnight at 37° C. in 5% CO2.


Human orexin-A as an agonist is prepared as 1 mM stock solution in MeOH:water (1:1), diluted in HBSS containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA), NaHCO3: 0.375 g/l and 20 mM HEPES for use in the assay at a final concentration of 3 nM. Antagonists are prepared as 10 mM stock solution in DMSO, then diluted in 384-well plates, first in DMSO, then in HBSS containing 0.1% bovine serum albumin (BSA), NaHCO3: 0.375 g/l and 20 mM HEPES.


On the day of the assay, 50 μl of staining buffer (HBSS containing 1% FCS, 20 mM HEPES, NaHCO3: 0.375 g/l, 5 mM probenecid (Sigma) and 3 μM of the fluorescent calcium indicator fluo-4 AM (1 mM stock solution in DMSO, containing 10% pluronic) is added to each well.


The 384-well cell-plates are incubated for 50 min at 37° C. in 5% CO2 followed by equilibration at RT for 30-120 min before measurement.


Within the Fluorescent Imaging Plate Reader (FLIPR Tetra, Molecular Devices), antagonists are added to the plate in a volume of 10 μl/well, incubated for 10 min and finally 10 μl/well of agonist is added. Fluorescence is measured for each well at 1 second intervals, and the height of each fluorescence peak is compared to the height of the fluorescence peak induced by 3 nM orexin-A with vehicle in place of antagonist. For each antagonist, the IC50 value (the concentration of compound needed to inhibit 50% of the agonistic response) is determined and may be normalized using the obtained IC50 value of a on-plate reference compound (normalized values in Table 1 are indicated by an asterisk *). With the FLIPR Tetra, two different conditions (conditions A and conditions B) were used, differing in adjustment of pipetting speed and cell splitting regime. The calculated IC50 values of the compounds may fluctuate depending on the daily cellular assay performance. Fluctuations of this kind are known to those skilled in the art.


Antagonistic activities (IC50 values) of 533 exemplified compounds are in the range of 4-4247 nM with respect to the OX1 receptor; 74 compounds have been measured with an IC50 value >4250 nM in this assay. IC50 values of all exemplified compounds are in the range of 2-1350 nM with an average of 138 nM with respect to the OX2 receptor. Antagonistic activities of selected compounds are displayed in Table 1.
