[0018] WO 00/71129 describes the preparation of 1,4-dihydro-5-alkyl-4-oxo-pyrrolo[2,1-f][1,2,4]triazine-6-carboxylates, key intermediates in the synthesis of pyrrolotriazine carboxamide and benzamide compounds of formula I, by reacting a Michael acceptor such as methyl crotonate with an anion of tosylmethyl isocyanide (TosMIC) to give 4-methylpyrrole-3-carboxylic acid methyl ester. The resulting 4-methylpyrrole-3-carboxylic acid methyl ester is acylated with trichloroacetyl chloride in the presence of aluminum chloride to afford 2-trichloroacetyl-3-methylpyrrole-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester. Treatment of 2-trichloroacetyl-3-methylpyrrole-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester with sodium methoxide produces 3-methylpyrrole-2,4-dicarboxylic acid methyl ester. N-amination of 3-methylpyrrole-2,4-dicarboxylic acid methyl ester using an aminating reagent such as diphenyl phosphoryl hydroxylamine affords 1-amino-3-methylpyrrole-2,4-dicarboxylic acid methyl ester. Finally, reaction of 1-amino-3-methylpyrrole-2,4-dicarboxylic acid methyl ester with formamide at elevated temperature gives 1,4-dihydro-5-methyl-4-oxo-pyrrolo[2,1-f][1,2,4]triazine-6-carboxylic acid methyl ester (Hunt, J. T.; Bhide, R. S.; Borzilleri, R. M.; Qian, L. WO 00/71129, Nov. 30, 2000). Although a number of 1,4-dihydro-5-substitued-4-oxo-pyrrolo[2,1-f][1,2,4]triazine-6-carboxylates can be prepared by this method, this process is limited due to its lengthy chemical transformations, the use of hazardous aminating reagents and expensive chromatographic separation of products. WO 02/40486 describes an improved synthesis of 3-methylpyrrole-2,4-dicarboxylates by condensing ethaldehyde and isocyanoacetates in the presence of DBU. The synthesis is shorter, however, generation of the side-product, cyanide, is a safety concern. Preparation of 6-ethyl-1,2,4-triazin-5-one by Raney nickel mediated desulfurization of 6-ethyl-1,2,4-triazin-5-one-3-thione has been reported (Taft, W. E.;

[0019] Shepherd, R. G. J. Med. Chem. (1967), 10, at 883).

The reaction of step (b) is typically conducted in a suitable solvent or solvent mixture. The optional solvent or solvent mixture of step (b) may be the same or different than the optional solvent or solvent mixture of step (a).

[0102] Step (c) involves reacting the ester V obtained in step (b) with a chlorinating reagent in the presence of a base to give an Compound VI. The term “chorinating reagent” as used herein means a reagent used to replace the oxygen of the ketone moiety on the triazine ring. Suitable chlorinating reagents include thionyl chloride, POCl3 and the like. POCl3 is preferred. Suitable solvent(s) for step (c) include aprotic solvents such hydrocarbons, halogenated hydrocarbons, ethers or the chlorinating reagent itself with POCl3 preferred.

[0103] In step (d), the Compound VI obtained in step (c) is reacted with an aniline VII to give Compound VIII. The anilines include N-alkoxy-3-aminobenzamides with N-methoxy-3-amino-4-methylbenzamide preferred. Suitable solvent(s) for step (d) include solvents such as hydrocarbons, halogenated hydrocarbons, ethers and amides with amides such as DMF preferred. The reaction of step (d) is typically conducted in a suitable solvent or solvent mixture, which may be the same as or different from any solvent or solvent mixture employed in other steps of this process.

[0104] In step (e), Compound VIII obtained in step (d) is reacted with an amine to give pyrrolotriazine carboxamide and benzamide compounds of formula I. The amines in the reaction (e) include primary and secondary amines with the latter preferred. The reaction of step (e) is typically conducted in a suitable solvent or solvent mixture, which may be the same as or different from any solvent or solvent mixture employed in other steps of this process.

[0105] In Compounds I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII and VIII, the substituents have the following meanings and are, for each occurrence, independently selected:

[0106] R is alkyl, aryl, or heteroaryl;

A typical procedure may comprise diluting the reaction mixture with an organic solvent, such as ethyl acetate, methylene chloride, diethyl ether, toluene, or the like, or a mixture of two or more of these organic solvents, and then washing the organic layer with water and/or an aqueous inorganic salt solution, such as 10% lithium chloride, one or more times. The organic layer may be dried over a dehydrating agent, such as anhydrous MgSO4 or Na2SO4, and then concentrated under reduced pressure. The product thus obtained may be purified using techniques known to one skilled in the field, such as crystallization, column chromatography and/or the like, to further enhance its purity.

Utility

[0117] The compounds of formula (I), made according to the inventive process herein, are useful as inhibitors of p38 kinase, and in particular, isoforms p38α and p38β. Accordingly, compounds of formula (I) have utility in treating conditions associated with p38 kinase activity. Such conditions include diseases or disorders in which cytokine levels are modulated as a consequence of intracellular signaling via p38, and in particular, diseases that are associated with an overproduction of cytokines IL-1, IL-4, IL-8, and TNF-α. As used herein, the terms “treating” or “treatment” encompass responsive and/or prophylaxis measures addressed to the disease state and/or its symptoms, e.g., measures designed to inhibit or delay the onset of the disease or disorder, achieve a full or partial reduction of the symptoms or disease state, and/or alleviate, lessen, or cure the disease and/or its symptoms. When reference is made herein to inhibition of “p-38α/β kinase,” this means that either or both p38α and p38β kinase are inhibited.

[0118] In view of their activity as inhibitors of p-38α/β kinase, compounds of Formula (I) are useful in treating inflammatory diseases, autoimmune diseases, destructive bone disorders, proliferative disorders, angiogenic disorders, infectious diseases, neurodegenerative diseases, viral diseases, and ischemia reperfusion conditions.

[0119] More particularly, the compounds of formula (I) may be used to treat inflammatory diseases including, but not limited to, arthritis (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, lyme disease arthritis, osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, rubella arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, gouty arthritis, and other arthritic conditions); glomerulonephritis, pancreatitis (acute or chronic), diabetes, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, conjunctivitis, aplastic anemia, thrombocytopenia, gastritis, chronic thyroiditis, chronic active hepatitis, multiple sclerosis, inflammatory bowel disease, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, cachexia (including cachexia secondary to infection, cancer, or heart disease), periodontal disease, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, keloid formation, pulmonary sarcoidosis, myasthenia gravis, inflammatory reaction induced by endotoxin, Reiter's syndrome, gout, acute synovitis, diseases characterized by massive neutrophil infiltration, ankylosing spondylitis, influenza, cerebral malaria, silicosis, bone resorption disease, fever, myalgias due to infection, osteoporosis, multiple myeloma-related bone disorder, neurodegenerative disease caused by traumatic injury, and traumatic brain injury.

[0120] The compounds may also be used to treat acute or chronic graft vs host reactions (e.g., pancreatic islet allograft), acute or chronic transplant rejection (e.g., kidney, liver, heart, lung, pancreas, bone marrow, cornea, small bowel, skin allografts, skin homografts, heterografts, and/or cells derived from such organs), and skin conditions including, but not limited to scar tissue formation, eczema, atopic dermatitis, contact dermatitis, urticaria, schleroderma, scleraclerma, and psoriasis. The compounds of formula (I) also may be used to treat allergies and respiratory conditions, including asthma, acute respiratory distress syndrome, hayfever, allergic rhinitis, and any chronic pulmonary inflammatory disease such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. The compounds further may be used to treat steroid resistance in asthma and allergies, and other conditions.

[0121] The compounds of formula (I) also may be used to treat angiogenic disorders including solid tumors, ocular neovasculization, and infantile haemangiomas.

[0122] When the terms “p38 associated condition” or “p38 associated disease or disorder” are used herein, each is intended to encompass all of the conditions identified above as if repeated at length, as well as any other condition that is modulated by p38 kinase activity, for example, such as those recited in U.S. Pat. No. 6,670,357 B2, issued Dec. 30, 2003, incorporated herein by reference.

[0123] The present invention also provides methods of preparing pharmaceutical compositions capable of treating p38-kinase associated conditions, including TNF-α, IL-1, and/or IL-8 mediated conditions, wherein the methods comprise making compounds of Formula (I) according to the inventive process herein and further preparing therefrom the pharmaceutical compositions, e.g., with one or more diluents or vehicles for administration. The said compositions may contain other therapeutic agents as described above. Pharmaceutical compositions may be formulated by employing conventional solid or liquid vehicles or diluents, as well as pharmaceutical additives of a type appropriate to the mode of desired administration (e.g., excipients, binders, preservatives, stabilizers, flavors, etc.) according to techniques such as those well known in the art of pharmaceutical formulations.

[0124] The said pharmaceutical compositions may be administered by any means suitable for the condition to be treated, which may depend on the need for site-specific treatment or quantity of drug to be delivered. Topical administration is generally preferred for skin-related diseases, and systematic treatment preferred for cancerous or pre-cancerous conditions, although other modes of delivery are contemplated. For example, the compounds of formula (I) may be delivered orally, such as in the form of tablets, capsules, granules, powders, or liquid formulations including syrups; topically, such as in the form of solutions, suspensions, gels or ointments; sublingually; bucally; parenterally, such as by subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular or intrasternal injection or infusion techniques (e.g., as sterile injectable aqueous or non-aqueous solutions or suspensions); nasally such as by inhalation spray; topically, such as in the form of a cream or ointment; rectally such as in the form of suppositories; or liposomally. Dosage unit formulations containing non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable vehicles or diluents may be administered. The compounds of formula (I), prepared according to the inventive process, may be administered in a form suitable for immediate release or extended release. Immediate release or extended release may be achieved with suitable pharmaceutical compositions or, particularly in the case of extended release, with devices such as subcutaneous implants or osmotic pumps.

[0125] Exemplary compositions for topical administration include a topical carrier such as PLASTIBASE® (mineral oil gelled with polyethylene).

[0126] Exemplary compositions for oral administration include suspensions which may contain, for example, microcrystalline cellulose for imparting bulk, alginic acid or sodium alginate as a suspending agent, methylcellulose as a viscosity enhancer, and sweeteners or flavoring agents such as those known in the art; and immediate release tablets which may contain, for example, microcrystalline cellulose, dicalcium phosphate, starch, magnesium stearate and/or lactose and/or other excipients, binders, extenders, disintegrants, diluents and lubricants such as those known in the art. The compounds of formula (I) may also be orally delivered by sublingual and/or buccal administration, e.g., with molded, compressed, or freeze-dried tablets. Exemplary compositions may include fast-dissolving diluents such as mannitol, lactose, sucrose, and/or cyclodextrins. Also included in such formulations may be high molecular weight excipients such as celluloses (AVICEL®) or polyethylene glycols (PEG); an excipient to aid mucosal adhesion such as hydroxypropyl cellulose (HPC), hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC), sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (SCMC), and/or maleic anhydride copolymer (e.g., GANTREZ®); and agents to control release such as polyacrylic copolymer (e.g., CARBOPOL 934®). Lubricants, glidants, flavors, coloring agents and stabilizers may also be added for ease of fabrication and use.

[0127] Exemplary compositions for nasal aerosol or inhalation administration include solutions which may contain, for example, benzyl alcohol or other suitable preservatives, absorption promoters to enhance absorption and/or bioavailability, and/or other solubilizing or dispersing agents such as those known in the art.

[0128] Exemplary compositions for parenteral administration include injectable solutions or suspensions which may contain, for example, suitable non-toxic, parenterally acceptable diluents or solvents, such as mannitol, 1,3-butanediol, water, Ringer's solution, an isotonic sodium chloride solution, or other suitable dispersing or wetting and suspending agents, including synthetic mono- or diglycerides, and fatty acids, including oleic acid.

[0129] Exemplary compositions for rectal administration include suppositories which may contain, for example, suitable non-irritating excipients, such as cocoa butter, synthetic glyceride esters or polyethylene glycols, which are solid at ordinary temperatures but liquefy and/or dissolve in the rectal cavity to release the drug.

[0130] The effective amount of a compound of formula (I) may be determined by one of ordinary skill in the art, and includes exemplary dosage amounts for a mammal of from about 0.05 to 100 mg/kg of body weight of active compound per day, which may be administered in a single dose or in the form of individual divided doses, such as from 1 to 4 times per day. It will be understood that the specific dose level and frequency of dosage for any particular subject may be varied and will depend upon a variety of factors, including the activity of the specific compound employed, the metabolic stability and length of action of that compound, the species, age, body weight, general health, sex and diet of the subject, the mode and time of administration, rate of excretion, drug combination, and severity of the particular condition. Preferred subjects for treatment include animals, most preferably mammalian species such as humans, and domestic animals such as dogs, cats, horses, and the like. Thus, when the term “patient” is used herein, this term is intended to include all subjects, most preferably mammalian species, that are affected by mediation of p38 enzyme levels.

[0131] Compounds within the scope of formula (I) may be tested for activity as inhibitors of p38α/β enzymes and TNF-α using assays known in the art and/or within the level ordinary skill in the art.

[0132] The following examples illustrate embodiments of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the claims. Within certain examples, one compound of the formula I is prepared and then employed to further prepare one or more additional compounds of the formula I or salts thereof. Methods employed to prepare one compound of the formula I or salt thereof as described herein can be employed as appropriate to prepare other compounds of the invention.

PREPARATION OF INTERMEDIATES

[0134]

[0135] 12 mL of EtOH was added to formamidine hydrochloric acid salt (1.6 g) and the mixture was stirred and cooled to −10° C. Hydrazine monohydrate was added slowly and the slurry mixture was stirred at −10° C. for 10 minutes. A solution of 2-oxo-butyric acid (1.52 g) in 4 mL EtOH was added followed by the addition of acetic acid (850 uL). The mixture was heated to reflux for 3.5 h. The solid was removed by filtration and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to dryness to give an oily solid (74 AP). The crude material was purified by chromatography (2:1 EtOAc/MeOH) to yield 1.1 g of Compound II, wherein R4 is hydrogen and R5 is methyl, as a solid (˜60% yield, 98 AP).

[0136] 6-Ethyl-1,2,4-triazin-5-one (1.25 g, 10 mmol, 1 eq) was combined in 20 mL of water with 3-bromopyruvic acid (2.5 g, 15 mmol, 1.5 eq). The reaction mixture was heated to 90° C. and stirred for 1.5 h. The resulting slurry was cooled, filtered, washed with cold water and dried to give 0.87 g (45%) of compound IV.

[0137] Compound IV (100 mg) was added to 10 mL of ethanol and 1 mL of 4N HCl in dioxane. The reaction mixture was heated to reflux and stirred for 2 h. The solvent was removed to give 110 mg (96%) of Compound V.

[0138] To a solution of Compound V (10 g, 45.2 mmol) in toluene (150 mL) was added DIPEA (6.31 mL, 36.2 mmol, 0.8 equiv) and POCl3 (5.05 mL, 54.2 mmol, 1.2. equiv) and the reaction mixture heated at 120-125° C. (oil bath temp) for 20 h. The reaction mixture was cooled and poured into ice cold saturated NaHCO3-water-toluene (450 mL-450 mL-150 mL) and stirred rapidly to assure quenching of the excess POCl3. The layers were separated (filtered through celite if a suspension forms) and the organic layer was washed again with saturated NaHCO3. The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo to afford Compound VI as a tan yellow solid (9.9 g, 95%).

[0139] To a solution of N-methoxy 3-amino-4-methylbenzamide (41.2 g, 190 mmol) in DMF (230 mL) was added DIPEA (33.1 mL, 180.7 mmol, 0.95 equiv), and the reaction vessel was heated to 55° C. (oil bath temp). Solid Compound VI (45.6 g, 190 mmol) was added in several portions over 10 minutes and the flask was rinsed with DMF (150 mL) and added to the reaction. The reaction was heated for 10 hours at 55° C. and cooled to room temperature. The mixture was then poured into 1.5 L water and diluted to 2.2 L with ice slowly over 10 minutes. The pH was adjusted to 6 and the solids were stirred for 1 h. The solids were filtered, washed with water (2×200 mL) and dried on the filter to give 71.9 g crude ester. The solid was then suspended in acetonitrile (450 mL) and heated with stirring at 50° C. for 1 h. The mixture was cooled and filtered to give 64.2 g product (>99% purity). These solids were then dissolved in hot ethanol (2.8 L) and decolorizing carbon (6.4 g) was added followed by heating at reflux for 15 min. The mixture was then filtered through a pad of celite and the reaction flask rinsed with hot ethanol (1 L). The hot filtrate was then concentrated to ˜1 L of ethanol by distillation upon which the product started to crystallize out of solution at a volume of 2.5 L. The solution was cooled and placed in a cold room with stirring for 40 h. The solids were filtered and rinsed with 1/1 EtOH/Et2O (500 mL) to give 58.5 g of Compound VIII as a white solid (80%).

EXAMPLE 1

[0140]

[0141] To a solution of Compound VIII (22.5 g, 58.7 mmol) in THF (205 mL) was added 1 N NaOH (205 mL) and the reaction mixture heated to 50° C. for 16 h. The THF was removed in vacuo and the mixture was acidified to pH 4-5 with 1N aqueous HCl to precipitate the product. The heterogeneous mixture was stirred for 1 h, filtered and washed with water (150 mL) and ether (150 mL). The collected solids were partially dried on the filter to give the crude acid intermediate as a moist white solid which was used without further purification.

[0142] To a solution of the moist acid in 300 mL of DMF was added HOBt (11.9 g, 88.0 mmol), EDCI (16.9 g, 88.0 mmol) and 1.3 equivalents (117 mmol) of cyclopropyl-amine as the free base or as the hydrochloride salt. The mixture was stirred for 30 min to solubilize the solids, placed in a cold water bath, and DIPEA (20.4 mL, 117 mmol) was added slowly via syringe. The reaction mixture was allowed to stir at room temperature for 1 h, then poured into rapidly stirred ice water (1.2 L) to precipitate the product. After stirring for 3 h, the solids were collected by suction filtration, washed with water (150 mL) and ether (2×100 mL), and allowed to air dry by suction filtration to give Example 1 (92-98%) as a white solid.
