Src homology region 2 (SH2)-containing protein tyrosine phosphatase 2 (SHP2) is a protein tyrosine phosphatase encoded by the PTPN11 gene. SHP2 contains two Src homology 2 (SH2) NH2-terminal domains and a C-terminal protein-tyrosine phosphatase domain. It is ubiquitously expressed in various tissues and cell types. SHP2 plays an important role in diverse signaling pathways to regulate cellular biological processes and is involved in the signaling pathways of a variety of growth factors and cytokines. Within a single signaling pathway, SHP2 can play both positive (signal enhancing) and negative (signal diminishing) roles in intracellular signaling processes. SHP2 is believed to function by dephosphorylating its associated signaling molecules, thereby attenuating the local signaling flow. However, the main effect of SHP2 action in most signaling pathways (e.g., growth factor, cytokine, and extracellular matrix receptors) is to enhance signal transduction. For example, SHP2 is a positive regulator of the ERK/MAPK signaling pathway, playing a key role in regulating cellular proliferation and survival. (For a review of SHP2 phosphatase, see, e.g, K. S. Grossman et al., Adv. Cancer Res. 2010, 106, 53-89; and references cited therein.)
In the basal state, SHP2 is normally auto-inhibited due to intramolecular interactions between its N-terminal SH2 (N—SH2) domain and its catalytic (PTP) domain, which blocks access to the catalytic site. Activating proteins that interact with the SH2 domains induce a conformational change that reverses this inhibition and allows substrate access to the catalytic site. Mutations in the PTPN11 gene that affect the N—SH2 or PTP domain residues involved in basal inhibition of SHP2 result in more readily activatable forms of SHP2 protein, which can lead to unregulated or increased SHP2 activity. Such activated mutants of SHP2 have been associated with developmental disorders such as Noonan syndrome, where nearly all mutated forms of SHP2 demonstrate increased PTP activity. Thus, there is a need for SHP2 phosphatase inhibitor compounds and methods for treating cancer and other disorders with these compounds.

The compounds described herein can function as allosteric inhibitors and block the activation of SHP2 by targeting the auto-inhibited conformation of SHP2.
The compounds described herein can also inhibit SHP2 function through incorporation into agents that catalyze the destruction of SHP2. For example, the compounds can be incorporated into proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs). A PROTAC is a bifunctional molecule, with one portion capable of engaging an E3 ubiquitin ligase, and the other portion having the ability to bind to a target protein meant for degradation by the cellular protein quality control machinery. Recruitment of the target protein to the specific E3 ligase results in its tagging for destruction (i.e., ubiquitination) and subsequent degradation by the proteasome. Any E3 ligase can be used. The portion of the PROTAC that engages the E3 ligase is connected to the portion of the PROTAC that engages the target protein via a linker which consists of a variable chain of atoms. Recruitment of SHP2 to the E3 ligase will thus result in the destruction of the SHP2 protein. The variable chain of atoms can include, for example, rings, heteroatoms, and/or repeating polymeric units. It can be rigid or flexible. It can be attached to the two portions described above using standard techniques.
The compounds described herein can be linked to one end of a variable chain, while the other end of the variable chain can be bound to the E3 ligase. Recruitment of SHP2 to the ligase will thus result in the destruction of the SHP2 protein.

At least some of the compounds identified as “Intermediates” herein are contemplated as compounds of the disclosure.
Examples are provided herein to facilitate a more complete understanding of the disclosure. The following examples serve to illustrate the exemplary modes of making and practicing the subject matter of the disclosure. However, the scope of the disclosure is not to be construed as limited to specific embodiments disclosed in these examples, which are illustrative only. The compounds of Formula (I), for example, can generally be prepared according to exemplary Scheme 1:

LG is a leaving group, such as Cl, Br, I, OTs, OTf, and the like, and P is a protecting group, such as 4-methoxybenzyl and the like. Alternative protecting groups that can be used are described, e.g., in Greene et al., Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis (4th ed. 2006).
As shown in Scheme 1, an aryl compound such as a compound of Formula 1001 undergoes a cross-coupling reaction with a metalated or otherwise activated moiety to provide a compound of Formula 1002. The compound of Formula 1002 then undergoes a substitution reaction with an amine such as Compound 1005, followed by removal of the protecting group to provide a compound of Formula (I). In some embodiments, LG is I. In some embodiments, LG is Cl. In some embodiments, LG is OTf or OTs. Alternatively, a protected heteroaryl ether, such as a compound of Formula 1003, undergoes a cross-coupling reaction to provide a compound of Formula 1004. The ether protecting group is subsequently removed and the resulting hydroxyl group activated to form a Q group, such as OSO2Me, OMs, OTs, OTf, and the like, to form a compound of Formula 1002, which can then be carried forward to prepare compounds having the Formula (I).
Alternatively, compounds of the disclosure can generally be prepared according to exemplary Scheme 2:
wherein X, R1, R6, R4, U, V, B and D are as defined as elsewhere herein, Q is independently a halogen, such as Cl, Br, I, and the like, or any other leaving group, such as OSO2Me, OMs, OTs, OTf, and the like. LG is a leaving group, such as Cl, Br, I, OTs, OTf, and the like, and P is a protecting group, such as 4-methoxybenzyl and the like. Alternative protecting groups that can be used are described, e.g., in Greene et al., Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis (4th ed. 2006).
As shown in Scheme 2, an aryl compound such as a compound of Formula 1001 undergoes a undergoes a substitution reaction with an amine such as 1005 to provide a compound of Formula 1006. The compound of Formula 1006 then undergoes a cross-coupling reaction with a metalated or otherwise activated moiety to provide a compound of Formula 1007. In some embodiments, the compound of Formula 1007 can be deprotected to produce a compound of Formula (I). In other embodiments, the compound of Formula 1007 can be left protected and functional groups on the R1 moiety refunctionalized by methods known to those of ordinary skill in the art.
In some embodiments, the cross-coupling reaction is a Buchwald-Hartwig reaction. In some embodiments, the cross-coupling reaction is a Chan-Lam coupling reaction. In some embodiments, the cross-coupling reaction is an Ullmann reaction. In some embodiments, the cross-coupling reaction is a Suzuki reaction. In some embodiments, the cross-coupling reaction is a Stille reaction. In some embodiments, the cross-coupling reaction is a Negishi reaction. In some embodiments, the cross-coupling reaction is a Hiyama reaction. Other cross-coupling reactions may be employed as would be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art.
In some embodiments, the protecting group is removed under acidic conditions, such as HBr in AcOH. Conditions for removal of the protecting group will depend on the nature of the protecting group. Conditions for the removal of various protecting groups can be found, e.g., in Greene et al., Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis (4th ed. 2006).

SHP2 Allosteric Inhibition Assay.
SHP2 is allosterically activated through binding of bis-tyrosyl-phorphorylated peptides to its Src Homology 2 (SH2) domains. The latter activation step leads to the release of the auto-inhibitory interface of SHP2, which in turn renders the SHP2 protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTP) active and available for substrate recognition and reaction catalysis. The catalytic activity of SHP2 is monitored using the surrogate substrate DiFMUP in a prompt fluorescence assay format.
More specifically, the phosphatase reactions re performed at room temperature in 96-well black polystyrene plate, flat bottom, low flange, non-binding surface (Corning, Cat #3575) using a final reaction volume of 50 μl and the following assay buffer conditions: 60 mM HEPES, pH 7.2, 75 mM NaCl, 75 mM KCl, 1 mM EDTA 0.005% Brij-35, 5 mM DTT.
The inhibition of SHP2 by compounds of the disclosure (concentrations varying from 0.003-100 μM) is monitored using an assay in which 0.25 nM of SHP2 is incubated with of 0.5 μM of peptide IRSl_pY1172(dPEG8)pY222 (sequence: H2N-LN(pY)IDLDLV(dPEG8)LST(pY)ASINFQK-amide). After 30-60 minutes incubation at 25° C., the surrogate substrate DiFMUP (Invitrogen, cat #D6567, 100 μM final) is added to the reaction and the conversion of DiFMIP to 6,8-difluoro-7-hydroxyl-4-methylcoumarin (DiFMU) is monitored continuously for 10 minutes with excitation at 355 nm and emission at 460 nm using a microplate reader (PolarStar, BMG). The inhibitor dose response curves are analyzed using normalized IC50 regression curve fitting with control based normalization.
Results of the SHP2 allosteric inhibition assay are depicted in the table below. Compounds designated as “A” have an IC50 value less than or equal to 50 nM; compounds designated as “B” have an IC50 value greater than 50 nM but less than or equal to 1 uM; compounds designated as “C” have an IC50 value greater than 1 uM but less than or equal to 10 uM; and compounds designated as “D” have an IC50 value greater than 10 uM.
