3. Scientific and Historical Background
AIDS is a disease that is characterized by a severe immune deficiency primarily caused by a decreased cell-mediated immune response. Gottlieb, et al., N. Engl. J. Med., 305: 1425-1431 (1981); Masur, et al., N. Engl. J. Med., 305: 1431-1438 (1981). The immunodeficient state is characterized by a decrease in T4 lymphocytes, also known as helper T cells, a reversal of the normal T4<+>:T8<+> cell ratio, lymphopenia, and opportunistic infections often caused by Pneumocystis carinii. Some patients also develop lymphoma or Kaposi's sarcoma at increased incidence. The disease is usually fatal.
The virus that the majority of scientists believes causes AIDS, first identified in 1983, has been described by several names. It is the third known human T-lymphotropic virus (HTLV-III) and has the capacity to replicate within cells of the immune system and thereby lead to a profound destruction of T4<+> T-cells (or CD4<+> cells). See, e.g., Gallo, et al., Science, 224: 500-503 (1984), and Popovic, et al., Science, 224: 497-500 (1984). This retrovirus has been known as lymphadenopathy-associated virus (LAV) or AIDS-related virus (ARV) and, more recently, as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).
Two distinct AIDS viruses, HIV-1 and HIV-2, have been described. HIV-1 is the virus originally identified in 1983 by Montagnier and co-workers at the Pasteur Institute in Paris. Montagnier, et al., Ann. de Virologie, 135 E: No. 1, 119-134 (1984), while HIV-2 was more recently isolated by Montagnier and his coworkers in 1986. Guyader, Nature, 326: 662-669 (1987). Additional distinct AIDS viruses may exist. As used herein, HIV is meant to refer to all of these viruses in a generic sense.
Retroviruses are enveloped RNA viruses. See, Hayward and Neel, Curr. Top. Microbiol. Immunol., 91: 217-276 (1981). The virus particle consists of a ribonucleoprotein core enclosed by an outer membrane envelope. Viral envelope glycoproteins protrude from the outer envelope. The viral genome consists of two identical single-stranded RNA molecules. Haseltine and Wong-Stall, Scientific American, 259: 52-62 (1988).
U.S. Pat. No. 4,724,232 claims a method of treating humans having AIDS utilizing 3-azido-3-deoxythymidine. On Mar. 20, 1987, the FDA approved the use of this compound, zidovudine (AZT), to treat AIDS patients with a recent initial episode of pneumocystis carinil pneumonia and for treatment of patients infected with the virus with an absolute CD4 lymphocyte count of less than 200/mm.sup.3 in the peripheral blood. AZT is a known inhibitor of viral reverse transcriptase.
Reverse transcriptase (RT) is an enzyme unique to retroviruses that catalyzes the conversion of viral RNA into double stranded DNA. Blockage at any point during the transcription process, by AZT or any other aberrant deoxynucleoside triphosphate incapable of elongation, is postulated to have dramatic consequences relative to viral replication, although no such therapy has yet been perfected.
Another approach to AIDS therapy focuses on the principal receptor on the T4 cell that the HIV seems to prefer to bind to, the so-called CD4 molecule. This molecule, a nonpolymorphic surface glycoprotein, has been targeted as an intervention point in AIDS therapy. Fisher, et al., Nature, 331: 76-78 (1988); Hussey, et al., Nature, 331: 78-81 (1988); and Deen, et al., Nature, 331: 82-84 (1988).
The present invention concerns a different therapeutic target in AIDS, the inhibition of the viral protease (or proteinase) that is essential for processing HIV-fusion polypeptide precursors. In HIV and several other retroviruses, the proteolytic maturation of the gag (group specific antigen) and gag/pol (polymerase) fusion polypeptides (a process indispensable for generation of infective viral particles) has been shown to be mediated by a protease that is, itself, encoded by the pol region of the viral genome. Yoshinaka, et al., Proc. Nad. Acad. Sci., USA, 82: 1618-1622 (1985); Yoshinaka, et al., J. Virol., 55: 870-873 (1985); Yoshinaka, et al., J. Virol., 57: 826-832 (1986).
The protease (or proteinase) enzyme, consisting of only 99 amino acids, is among the smallest enzyme known. Nutt, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., USA, 85: 7129-7133 (1988). Pearl and Taylor, Nature, 329: 351-354 (1987). The three-dimensional structure and mechanism of the enzyme is known. Pearl and Taylor, Nature, 329: 351-354 (1987). Active HIV protease has been expressed in bacteria (e.g., Darke, et al., J. Biol. Chem., 264: 2307-2312 (1989)) and chemically synthesized. Schneider and Kent, Cell, 54: 363-368 (1988); and Nutt, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., USA, 85: 7129-7133 (1988). All the above documents are incorporated by reference herein.
This invention comprises novel tetronic acid type compounds that are useful for the inhibition of the HIV protease enzyme. The compounds may be useful for the treatment of a person with AIDS or AIDS related diseases. The compounds may be used in the attempt to retard the further replication of any retrovirus containing the aspartyl protease enzyme or the human retrovirus such as HIV or of treating human cell systems especially including a patient infected with a human retrovirus containing the aspartyl protease enzyme.

AMINO ACIDS. Amino acid residues referred to in this application are listed below, they may also be given either three letter or single letter abbreviations, as follows:
Alanine, Ala, A; Arginine, Arg, R; Asparagine, Asn, N; Aspartic acid, Asp, D; Cystein, Cys, C; Glutarine, Gln, Q; Glutamic Acid, Glu, E; Glycine, Gly, G; Histidine, His, H; Isoleucine, Ile, I; Leucine, Leu, L; Lysine, Lys, K; Methionine, Met, M; Phenylalanine, Phe, F; Proline, Pro, P; Serine, Ser, S; Threonine, Thr, T; Tryptophan, Trp, W; Tyrosine, Tyr, Y; Valine, Val, V; Aspartic acid or Asparagine, Asx, B; Glutamic acid or Glutamine, Glx, Z; Any amino acid, Xaa, X.
All amino acids have a carboxyl group and an amino group. The amino group of the amino acid is also referred to as the "N-terminus" of the amino acid. The carboxyl group of an amino acid is also referred to as the "C-terminus" of the amino acid. The "N-terminus" of an amino acid may form a peptide bond with a carboxyl group of another compound. The carboxyl group that combines with the "N-terminus" of an amino acid may be the carboxyl group of another amino acid or it may be from another source. If several amino acids are linked into a polypeptide, then the polypeptide will have a "free" N-terminus and a "free" C-terminus.
With the compounds of this invention some of the possible moieties are described as "("compound")--C(O)--RA.sub.1-3 " and "("compound)"--N(H)RA.sub.1-4." The groups "RA.sub.1-3 " and "RA.sub.1-4 " (and "RA.sub.1-1-3 " and "RA1-1-4") are amino acids of the type listed above. Thus it is understood that RA.sub.1-3 would be attached to the compound via the "N-terminus" of the amino acid. RA.sub.1-3 is thus said to be an "N-terminus" amino acid, or even "any N-terminus amino acid," referring to any of the amino acids listed above. RA.sub.1-4 would be attached to the compoud via the "C-terminus" of the amino acid. RA.sub.1-4 is thus said to be a "C-terminus" amino acid or even "any C-terminus amino acid," referring to any of the amino acids listed above.
It should be apparent then that, compound-C(O)--RA.sub.1-3 would indicate, compound-C(O)--amino acid, where the N-terminus or amino terminus of the amino acid forms a peptide bond with the compound and compound-N(H)RA.sub.1-4 would indicate, compound-N(H)-amino acid, where the C-terminus or carboxyl group of the amino acid forms a peptide bond with the compound. The former compound would have a "free" amino or N-terminus and the latter a "free" carboxy or C-terminus.
HALOGEN. The term "halo-" and "halogen" refer to substituents selected from fluoro, chloro, bromo, iodo or trifluoromethyl.
CHIRALITY. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that compounds of this invention may contain one or more chiral centers and may exist in optically active forms including cis-trans- and/or R- and S- isomeric forms and mixtures thereof. The scope of this invention includes all of these forms, the enantiomeric or diastereomeric forms of the compounds, including optically active forms, in pure form or as mixtures of enantiomers or diastereomers including cis-/trans-isomeric forms. The therapeutic properties of the compounds may to a greater or lesser degree depend on the stereochemistry of a particular compound.
SALTS. The present invention provides for compounds of formula 1 or pharmacologically acceptable salts and/or hydrates thereof. Pharmacologically acceptable salts refers to those salts that would be readily apparent to a manufacturing pharmaceutical chemist to be equivalent to the parent compound in properties such as formulation, stability, patient acceptance and bioavailability.
The tetronic acids form base addition salts when reacted with bases of sufficient strength. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts include both inorganic and organic bases. The pharmaceutically acceptable salts may be preferred over the free acids since they produce compounds that are more water soluble and more crystalline. The preferred pharmaceutically acceptable salts include, but are not limited to, salts of the mono and divalent metals such as: calcium, lithium, magnesium, potassium, or sodium; and salts formed with organic bases, such as: hydroxide, tro-methamine (THAM), 2-amino-2-(hydroxymethyl)-1,3-propanediol, and other salts as would be apparent to one skilled in the art. Bis salts, where two equivalents of base are added, may also be made from some of the compounds of this invention. Bis salts may be constructed of the salts mentioned above, the following bis salts are frequently used, potassium, or sodium.
Some of the compounds of this invention contain basic functional groups, including amines. These compounds are made into salts when combined with appropriate organic or inorganic acids. These salts can be prepared in situ during the final isolation and purification of the compounds or by separately reacting the purified compound in its free base form with a suitable organic or inorganic acid and isolating the salt thus formed. Representative salts include the acetate, adipates, alginates, aspartates, benzoates, borate, citrate, fumarates, glucoheptonate, hydrochloride, hydrobromide, hydroiodide, lactate, lactiobionate, laurate, malate, maleate, mesylate, naphthylate, nitrate, oleate, oxalate, palmitate, phosphate, propionate, succinate, stearate, sulfate, bisulfate, benzenesulfonates, cyclohexylsulfanates, ethanesulfonates, laurylsulphonate, methanesulfonates, toluenesulfonates, sulfamate, cyclohexylsulfamate, tartrate, tosylate, valerate and other pharmaceutically acceptable counter ions. These salts are readily prepared by methods known in the art.
Additionally, the compounds of this invention may be administered in a suitable hydrated form. Representative alkali or alkaline earth salts include the sodium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium salts and the like. Those skilled in the art would know how to formulate the acids, the salts (including bis salts), and any hydrates of the compounds of this invention into appropriate pharmaceutical dosage forms.
OTHER. LAH is lithium aluminum hydride. LDA is lithium diisopropylamide. THF is tetrahydrofuran. HRMS is High Resolution Mass Spectrometry, EIMS is electron impact mass spectrometry. Et is ethyl. EtOAc is ethyl acetate. HOAc is acetic acid. Carbonyl groups are usually written "C(O)" to indicate a carbon oxygen double bond. Carboxyl is usually written "C(O)O" or "C(O)--O--."
NMR. Operating frequence is .sup.1 H-NMR (300.133 MHz) and .sup.13 C-NMR (75.469 MHz).
All variables are independently defined unless stated otherwise. For example, if R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 were both defined as being A, B, or C then R.sub.1 could be A at the same time that R.sub.2 was A, B or C. When a group can be substituted, usually one to three possibilities, the substitutents need not be the same groups. When a variable in a dependent claim is left undefined it takes the definition of the same variable in the preceding claim from which the dependent claim depends on.
Some variables are combined to form a single recognizable moeity. For example, the R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 groups may be "combined" to form a cyclic structure. In this situation a C.sub.6 cycloalkyl would indicate a six member carbon skelton ring which includes one carbon from the tetronic acid ring, for example, see compound IX-3, etc. Alternatively, a heterocyclic ring composed of R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 would be indicated by "--C.sub.1-5 alkyl-R.sub.23 --C.sub.1-5 alkyl-." In this latter case, the "--C.sub.1-5 alkyl-" groups would not include the carbon of the tetronic acid ring, thus a six member hetero ring would be written, "--C.sub.2 alkyl-R.sub.23 --C.sub.2 alkyl-." For example, see compound OX-1, which contains a six membered piperidine ring. Note that there does not have to be an equal number of carbon atoms on either side of the R.sub.23 group, nor does R.sub.23 have to be a hetero atom.
2. Administration and Compositions
In clinical practice the compounds of the present invention will normally be administered orally, rectally, or by injection, in the form of pharmaceutical preparations comprising the active ingredient either as a free acid or as a pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic, base addition salt, such as of the types listed above in association with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The use and administration to a patient to be treated in the clinic would be readily apparent to a physician or pharmacist or ordinary skill in the art.
The present invention also provides pharmaceutical compositions which comprise one or more of the compounds of formula I above formulated together with one or more non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. The pharmaceutical compositions may be specially formulated for oral administration in solid or liquid form, for parenteral injection, or for rectal administration.
The pharmaceutical compositions of this invention can be administered to humans and other animals orally, rectally, parenterally (i.e., intravenously, intramuscularly, or subcutaneously), intracisternally, intravaginally, intraperitoneally, topically (as by powders, ointments, or drops), bucally, or as an oral or nasal spray.
Pharmaceutical compositions of this invention for parenteral injection comprise pharmaceutically acceptable sterile aqueous or nonaqueous solutions, dispersions, suspensions or emulsions as well as sterile powders for reconstitution into sterile injectable solutions or dispersions just prior to use. Examples of suitable aqueous and nonaqueous carriers, diluents, solvents or vehicles include water, ethanol, polyols (such as glycerol, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, and the like), and suitable mixtures thereof, vegetable oils (such as olive oil), and injectable organic esters such as ethyl oleate.

These compositions may also contain adjuvants such as preservative, wetting agents, emulsifying agents, and dispersing agents. Prevention of the action of microorganisms may be ensured by the inclusion of various antibacterial and antifungal agents, for example, paraben, chlorobutanol, phenol sorbic acid, and the like. It may also be desirable to include isotonic agents such as sugars, sodium chloride, and the like. Prolonged absorption of the injectable pharmaceutical form may be brought about by the inclusion of agents which delay absorption such as aluminum monostearate and gelatin.
If desired and for more effective distribution, the compounds can be incorporated into slow release or targeted delivery systems such as polymer matrices, liposomes, and microspheres.
The injectable formulations can be sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bacterial-retaining filter, or by incorporating sterilizing agents in the form of sterile solid compositions which can be dissolved or dispersed in sterile water or other sterile injectable medium just prior to use.
Solid dosage forms for oral administration include capsules, tablets, pills, powders, and granules. In such solid dosage forms, the active compound is mixed with at least one inert, pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or carrier such as sodium citrate or dicalcium phosphate and/or a) fillers or extenders such as starches, lactose, sucrose, glucose, mannitol, and silicic acid, b) binders such as, for example, carboxymethylcellulose, alignates, gelatin, polyvinylpyrrolidone, sucrose, and acacia, c) humectants such as glycerol, d) disintegrating agents such as agar-agar, calcium carbonate, potato ortapioca starch, alginic acid, certain silicates, and sodium carbonate, e) solution retarding agents such as paraffin, f) absorption accelerators such as quatemaryammonium compounds, g) wetting agents such as, for example, cetyl alcohol and glycerol monostearate, h) absorbents such as kaolin and bentonite clay, and i) lubricants such as talc, calcium stearate, magnesium stearate, solid polyethylene glycols, sodium lauryl sulfate, and mixtures thereof. In the case of capsules, tablets and pills, the dosage form may also comprise buffering agents.
Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in soft and hard-filled gelatin capsules using such excipients as lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polyethylene glycols and the like.
The solid dosage forms of tablets, dragees, capsules, pills, and granules can be prepared with coatings and shells such as enteric coatings and other coatings well known in the pharmaceutical formulating art. They may optionally contain opacifying agents and can also be of a composition that they release the active ingredient(s) only, or preferentially, in a certain part of the intestinal tract, optionally, in a delayed manner. Examples of embedding compositions which can be used include polymeric substances and waxes.
The active compounds can also be in microencapsulated form, if appropriate, with one or more of the above-mentioned excipients.
Liquid dosage forms for oral administration include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, solutions, suspensions, syrups and elixirs. In addition to the active compounds, the liquid dosage forms may contain inert diluents commonly used in the art such as, for example, water or other solvents, solubilizing agents and emulsifiers such as ethyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, ethyl carbonate, ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, propylene glycol, 1,3-butylene glycol, dimethyl formamide, oils (in particular, cottonseed, groundnut, corn, germ, olive, castor, and sesame oils), glycerol, tetrahydrofurfuryl alcohol, polyethylene glycols and fatty acid esters of sorbitan, and mixtures thereof.
Besides inert diluents, the oral compositions can also include adjuvants such as wetting agents, emulsifying and suspending agents, sweetening, flavoring, and perfuming agents.
Suspensions, in addition to the active compounds, may contain suspending agents as, for example, ethoxylated isostearyl alcohols, polyoxyethylene sorbitol and sorbitan esters, microcrystalline cellulose, aluminum metahydroxide, bentonite agar-agar, and tragacanth, and mixtures thereof.
Compositions for rectal or vaginal administration are preferably suppositories which can be prepared by mixing the compounds of this invention with suitable nonirritating excipients or carriers such as cocoa butter, polyethylene glycol or a suppository wax which are solid at room temperature but liquid at body temperature and therefore melt in the rectum or vaginal cavity and release the active compound.
Dosage forms for topical administration of a compound of this invention include powders, sprays, ointments and inhalants. The active compound is mixed under sterile conditions with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and any needed preservatives, buffers, or propellants which may be required. Ophthalmic formulations, eye ointments, powders and solutions are also contemplated as being within the scope of this invention.
Actual dosage levels of active ingredients in the pharmaceutical compositions of this invention may be varied so as to obtain an amount of the active compound(s) that is effective to achieve the desired therapeutic response for a particular patient, compositions, and mode of administration. The selected dosage level will depend upon the activity of the particular compound, the route of administration, the severity of the condition being treated, and the condition and prior medical history of the patient being treated. However, it is within the skill of the art to start doses of the compound at levels lower than required to achieve the desired therapeutic effect and to gradually increase the dosage until the desired effect is achieved. Generally dosage levels of about 0.1 to about 200, more preferably of about 0.5 to about 150, and most preferably about 1 to about 125 mg of active compound per kilogram of body weight per day are administered orally to a mammalian patient. If desired, the effective daily dose may be divided into multiple doses for purposes of administration, e.g., two to four separate doses per day.
3. Utility of the Invention.
The compounds of formula I of the present invention inhibit retroviral proteinases, having a aspartyl protease enzyme, and thus inhibit the replication of the virus. More particularly, the compounds of the present invention are useful as novel human retroviral protease inhibitors, having a aspartyl protease enzyme. They are useful for treating human patients infected with a human retrovirus containing the aspartyl protease enzyme, such as human immunodeficiency virus (strains of HIV-1 or HIV-2) or human T-cell leukemia viruses (HTLV-I or HTV-II) which results in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and/or related diseases.
The capsid and replicative enzymes (i.e. protease, reverse transcriptase, integrase) of retroviruses are translated from the viral gag and pol genes as polyproteins that are further processed by the viral protease (PR) to the mature proteins found in the viral capsid and necessary for viral functions and replication. If the PR is absent or nonfunctional, the virus cannot replicate. The retroviral PR, such as HIV-1 PR or HIV-2 PR has been found to be an aspartic protease with active site characteristics similar to those exhibited by the more complex aspartic protease, renin.
The term human retrovirus (HRV) includes human immunodeficiency virus type I, human immunodeficiency virus type II, or strains thereof, as well as human T cell leukemia virus 1 and 2 (HTLV-1 and HTLV-2) or strains apparent to one skilled in the art, which belong to the same or related viral families and which create similar physiological effects in humans as various human retroviruses containing the aspartyl protease enzyme.
More specifically, an example of one such human retrovirus containing the aspartyl protease enzyme is the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV, also known as HTLV-III or LAV) which has been recognized as the causative agent in human acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). HIV contains a retro viral encoded protease, HIV-I protease, that cleaves the fusion polypeptides into the functional proteins of the mature viral particle, E. P. Lillehoj, et al., J. Virology, 62: 3053 (1988); C. Debuck, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., 84: 8903 (1987). This enzyme, HIV-I protease, has been classified as an aspartyl protease and has a demonstrated homology to other aspartyl proteases such as renin, L. H. Pearl, et al., Nature 329: 351 (1987); I. Katoh, et al., Nature 329: 654 (1987). Inhibition of HIV-I protease blocks the replication of H[V and thus is useful in the treatment of human AIDS, E. D. Clerq, J. Med. Chem. 29: 1561 (1986). Inhibitors of HIV-I protease are useful in the treatment of HIV-infected individuals who are asymptomatic or symptomatic of AIDS.
Pepstatin A, a general inhibitor of aspartyl proteases, has been disclosed as an inhibitor of HIV-I protease, S. Seelmeier, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 85: 6612 (1986). Other substrate derived inhibitors containing reduced bond isosteres or statine at the sassile position have also been disclosed, M. L. Moore, et al., Biochem. Biophys, Res. Commun. 159: 420 (1989); S. Billich, et al., J. Biol. Chem. 263: 17905 (1988); Sandoz, D. E. 3812-576-A.
Patients to be treated would be those individuals: 1) infected with one or more strains of a human retrovirus containing the aspartyl protease enzyme as determined by the presence of either measurable viral antibody or antigen in the serum and 2) in the case of HIV, having either an asymptomatic HIV infection or a symptomatic AIDS defining infection such as i) disseminated histoplasmosis, ii) isopsoriasis, iii) bronchial and pulmonary candidiasis including pneumocystic pneumonia iv) non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or v) Kaposi's sarcoma and being less than sixty years old; or having an absolute CD4+ lymphocyte count of less than 500/mm.sup.3 in the peripheral blood. Treatment would consist of maintaining an inhibitory level of the compound used according to this invention in the patient at all times and would continue until the occurrence of a second symptomatic AIDS defining infection indicates alternate therapy is needed.
Thus, the compounds of the present invention are useful for treating diseases caused by retroviruses containing the aspartyl protease enzyme, such as human acquired immunodeficiency disease syndrome (AIDS).
The compounds are also useful for treating non-human animals infected with a retrovirus containing the aspartyl protease enzyme, such as cats infected with feline leukemia virus or feline immunodeficiency virus, simians infected with the simian immunodeficiency virus, goats, and any other animal that may be infected with a virus containing the aspartyl protease enzyme. Exact dosages, forms and modes of administration of the compounds of the present invention to non-human animals would be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art, such as a veterinarian.
The compounds of formula I of the present invention are prepared as described in the Preparations and Examples below, or are prepared by methods analogous thereto, which are readily known and available to one of ordinary skill in the art of organic synthesis.
Also claimed are essential intermediates, useful in the preparation of the compounds of formula 1.
4. Measures of Activity
The HIV protease assay. Surprisingly and unexpectedly, the compounds of the present invention are effective and potent inhibitors of HIV protease. The HIV protease assay is described below.
Because the compounds of the present invention inhibit retroviral proteases, having an aspartyl protease enzyme, they are expected to inhibit the replication of the HIV virus. The compounds are thus useful for treating human patients infected with a human retrovirus containing the aspartyl protease enzyme, such as human immunodeficiency virus (strains of HIV-1 or HIV-2) or human T-cell leukemia viruses (HLV-I or HTLV-II) that results in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) and/or related diseases.
The term human retrovirus (HRV) includes human immunodeficiency virus type I, human immunodeficiency virus type II, or strains thereof, as well as human T cell leukemia virus 1 and 2 (HTLV-1 and HTLV-2) or strains apparent to one skilled in the art, that belong to the same or related viral families and that create similar physiological effects in humans as various human retroviruses containing the aspartyl protease enzyme.
Patients to be treated are those individuals: 1) infected with one or more strains of a human retrovirus containing the aspartyl protease enzyme as determined by the presence of either measurable viral antibody or antigen in the serum and 2) in the case of HIV, having either a symptomatic AIDS defining infection such as i) disseminated histoplasmosis, ii) isopsoriasis, iii) bronchial and pulmonary candidiasis including pneumocystic pneumonia, iv) non-Hodgkin's lymphoma or v) Kaposi's sarcoma. Treatment consists of maintaining an inhibitory level of the compound used according to this invention in the patient at all times and would continue until the occurrence of a second symptomatic AIDS defining infection indicates alternate therapy is needed.
More specifically, an example of one such human retrovirus is the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV, also known as HTLV-III or LAV) that has been recognized as the causative agent in human acquired immunodeficiency disease syndrome (AIDS), Gallo, et al., Science, 224: 500-503 (1984). HIV contains a retro viral encoded protease, HIV-I protease, that cleaves the fusion polypeptides into the functional proteins of the mature virus particle. Lillehoj, et al., J. Virology, 62: 3053-3058 (1988); Debouck, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., USA, 84: 8903-8906 (1987). This enzyme, HIV-I protease, has been classified as an aspartyl protease and has a demonstrated homology to other aspartyl proteases such as renin. Pearl and Taylor, Nature, 329: 351-354 (1987); Katoh, et al., Nature, 329: 654-656 (1987). Inhibition of HIV-I protease blocks the replication of HIV and thus is useful in the treatment of human AIDS. Clercq, J. Med. Chem., 29: 1561-1569 (1986). Inhibitors of HIV-I or HIV-II protease are useful in the treatment of AIDS.
IN VITRO HIV PROTEASE INHIBITORY ASSAY
The HIV protease screening assay is based on a fluorescently labeled substrate which can be resolved from nonlabeled cleavage product using avidin-polystyrene particles, 0.7-0.9 .mu.m. The substrate is biotinylated at the amino terminal arginine and fluorescently labeled with fluorescein isothiocynate (FITC) at the carboxyl terminal lysine. This assay has been employed to detect novel, nonpeptidic inhibitors of HIV-1 protease. Substrate (20 .mu.l of 0.2 .mu.M), sample (10 .mu.l of desired concentraion), and enzyme (10 .mu.l of 0.1 .mu.M) are added to a 96 well pandex plate. The assay is run in 0.1 M sodium acetate buffer at pH 5.5 in the presence of 1.0 M sodium chloride and 0.05% NP-40 and incubated in the dark for one hour at room temperature. Avidin coated polystyrene beads (40 .mu.l of 0.1% (w/v)) are added and the incubation is continued in the dark for an additional half hour. The labeled cleavage product is separated from the unreacted substrate via filtration and is read on the IDEXX Screen Machine. (IDEXX Corporation--Portland, Me.) The data are analyzed by appropriate computer algorithms to ascertain percent inhibition values.
The Activity Table showing the results of the HIV Protease Inhibitory Assay appears below in TABLE 1. The table has three columns, the left column provides the code number of the compound for easy cross reference to structure tables and detailed procedures, the middle column provides the concentration of test compound and the column on the right provides the percent inhibition.
Determination of K.sub.i values utilizes the same materials and equipment employed for percent inhibition studies. Two-fold serial dilutions are made for a given inhibitor from 2, 3 or 4 starting concentrations with a total of 24, 36 or 48 individual inhibitor concentrations. These dilutions are performed utilizing the BioMek robotics system. The assay consists of 10 .mu.L of 40 nM HIV-1 protease, 10 .mu.L of the various inhibitor concentrations, and 20 .mu.L of 200 .mu.M substrate (40 .mu.L total). The reaction is allowed to proceed for 90 min at room temperature, terminated with 40 .mu.L of avidin beads and processed (supra vide). An inhibitor with a known K.sub.i is run in parallel to verify the validity of the assay. The data is processed utilizing a computer program employing a nonlinear least square analysis of the data to generate the K.sub.i values.
The % inhibition values and, in some instances, IC.sub.50 values or K.sub.i values, of representative compounds of the present invention are listed in Tables II and IV below.
Several compounds of the present invention, such as IX-14, IX-17 and IX-24 were tested in known human cell lines, such as human T-cell lines, e.g., MT4 and H9, which were infected with HIV-1.sub.IIIB, and were found to inhibit retroviral replication.

The compounds of this invention are the compounds described under the section titled, "Summary of the Invention," formulas I-VI and all associated moieties.
Preparation of the Compounds.
The compounds of the present invention are prepared as described in the Charts, Preparations and Examples below, or are prepared by methods analogous thereto, which are readily known and available to one of ordinary skill in the art of organic synthesis.
The descriptions below refer to the various CHARTS which show figures and formula that represent various compounds. The structures, or formula, are provided to facilitate an understanding of the description of the invention. The structures in the CHARTS provide general descriptions of reaction schemes and are not intended to limit the procedures to describe only those compounds shown. The aromatic structures in the figures may have a double zero placed within the aromatic ring to emphasize the fact that the structure is not only benzene but any suitable aromatic group, including obvious substitutions, such as those provided in the definition section for aryl, heteroaryl and the like. This is true for any aromatic ring shown not just rings with double zeros in them.
In addition to the preparations and procedures below many of the side chains to the basic tetronic acid "core" structure will be apparent to one ordinarily skilled in the art. Tetronic acid is the trivial name for 5H-Furan-2-one,4-hydroxy. Additional side chains are disclosed in WO 94/11361, published May 26, 1994, (International Application Number PCT/U.S.93/10645) and WO 94/18188, published Aug. 18, 1994, (International Application Number PCT/U.S.94/00938), incorporated by reference herein. Reference to those documents may be necessary for a complete description of how to make some of the compounds described in this invention.





CHART A
Chart A describes the alkylation of commercially available tetronic acid (A-1) with benzylic or tertiary alcohols (A-2) and alkyl halides (A-3) in the presence of Lewis acids to provide the 3-substituted tetronic acids of general formul A-4. Tetronic acid has also been shown to react with tertiary alcohols in the presence of sulfuric acid to provide the alkylated derivatives (Zimmer, H.; Amer, A.; Pham, C. V.; Schmidt, D. G. J. Org. Chem. 1988, 53, 3368.).
Compounds of formula A-4 in which R.sub.1 contains a heteroaroaryl group can be prepared in a manner analagous to that described for the preparation of the heteroaryl containing compounds in Chart II, example 195, of WO 94/11361 and Charts FF-UU, examples 379-394, of WO/94/18188, published Aug. 18, 1994.

PREPARATIONS AND EXAMPLES OF CHART A
Preparation AP-1
(See Chart A, figure "A-4": R.sub.1 is cyclopropylphenylmethyl.) Intermediate AP-1. 2(5H)-Furanone, 3-(cyclopropylphenylmethyl)-4-hydroxy-.
1.2 gm of tetronic acid (A-1) is dissolved in 75 ml of sieve-dried dioxane followed by the addition of 1.71 ml (18 mmol) of a-cyclopropylbenzyl alcohol ("A-2" where R.sub.1 is cyclopropylphenylmethyl) and 7.2 ml (59 mmol) of BF.sub.3 -Et.sub.2 O. The reaction is stirred for 24 hours at room temperature under a nitrogen atmosphere. During the course of the reaction the solution gradually darkens. The reaction is quenched by the addition of 10 ml of water, and the solvent is removed under reduced pressure. The residue is dissolved in 1N NaOH and extracted three times with CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2. The aqueous phase is made acidic with 1N HCl and repeatedly extracted with large volumes of CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2. The CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 is removed under reduced pressure, and the solid residue is crystalized from EtOHI/H.sub.2 O to yield 1.138 gm (41% yield) of a white solid. The crystals are dried for two days under vacuum.
Physical properties as follows:
.sup.1 H-NMR(CDCl.sub.3).delta.0.20-0.25(m,1H), 0.48-0.50(m,1H), 0.55-0.65(m,2H), 1.30-1.40(m,1H), 3.24(d,1H), 4,55(d,2H), 7.26-7.41(m,5H).

Preparation AP-2
(See Chart A, figure "A-4": R.sub.1 is 1-phenylpropyl.) Intermediate AP-2.
Using the procedure described in Preparation AP-1 starting with .alpha.-ethyl benzyl alcohol (Chart A, figure "A-2" where R.sub.1 is I-phenylpropyl), intermediate AP-2 is produced.
CHART B
Chart B describes the reaction of tetronic acids of general formula A-4 with readily available primary alkyl halides (B-1) in the presence of butyl lithium as base provides the 5-substituted derivatives of general formula B-3. In addition to the monoalkylated product (B-3), variable amounts of the bis-alkylated product (B-4) may be produced. Use of LDA as base leads to improved yields of B-4. For the efficient reaction with secondary halides, NaI is used as a catalyst. Chart B also describes the reaction of A-4 with non-enolizable aldehydes (such as cinnamaldehyde) to form the 5-substituted tetronic acids of general formula B-5.

PREPARATIONS AND EXAMPLES OF CHART D
Preparation DP-1 and Example DX-1
(See Chart D, figure "D-3" where R.sub.2 is 3-phenylpropyl, R.sub.3 is propyl and R.sub.1 is cyclopropylphenylmethyl.)
138 mg of the title compound of Example BX-3 (Chart D, "B3" where R.sub.2 is 3-phenylpropyl and R.sub.1 is cyclopropylphenylmethyl) and 10 ml of dry THF are cooled to -78.degree. C. 416 ul of lithium diisopropylamide (2.0 M in heptane.backslash.THF.backslash.ethyl benzene) are added, and the yellow solution is stirred for 10 min at -78.degree. C. 46 .mu.l of commercial propylbromide (D-1) is added, and the solution is stirred for 30 minutes at -78.degree. C. The reaction is allowed to slowly warm to -5.degree. C., and then quenched by the addition of 5 ml of H.sub.2 O. After removal of most of the solvent, the basic aqueous solution is washed twice with CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2, acidified with 1N HCl and washed 3 times with CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2. The CH.sub.2 Cl.sub.2 layer is dried over MgSO.sub.4. After removal of the solvent, flash chromatography of the crude residue using 75% hexane.backslash.23%EtOAc.backslash.2%HOAc as eluant yields 46 mg of the title product and 49 mg of unreacted starting material. Yield may be improved by generating the anion and alkylating at -20.degree. C. to -10.degree. C. instead of -78.degree. C.

CHART F
CHART F describes the aldol condensation of benzylic aldehydes of the formula F-1 with tetronic acid analogs to form a dimer, F-2, which can be reduced using cyanoborohydride to form analogs of the formula F-3. Specific examples of side chains of this type are found in application Ser. No. 08/090,876, filed Jul. 13, 1993 (pyrones). (Begley, M. J., Clemo, N. G. and Pattenden, G. J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans.I 1985, 2393-2397) Alternatively, under acid conditions, aldol condensation of substituted benyzlic aldehydes of formula F-1 with tetronic acid analogs form 3-aryl methylene derivatives of formula F-6, which can be further elaborated by reaction with Grignard reagents of formula F-7 to form tetronic acid analogs of formula F-8 (Zimmer, H., Hillstrom, W. W., Schmidt, J. C., Seemuth, P. D. and Vogeli, R. J. Org. Chem. 1978 43, 1541-1544) and (Amer, A., Ho, D., Rumpel, K., Schenkel, R. I. and Zimmer, H. J. Org. Chem. 1991, 56, 5210-5213). Alkylation at the 5-positioni of the tetronic acid (as described for the example BX-3) provides analogs of formula F-9.

CHART G
CHART G describes a method for preparing Sa-substituted tetronic acid analogs of formula G-8. Protection of 3-substituted tetronic acids (A-4) as their methyl ethers is accomplished using a modification of the literature procedure (Gill, M.; Kiefel, M. J.; Lally, D. A.; Ten, A. Aust. J. Chem. 1990, 43, 1497) to provide intermediates of general structure G-1. Aldol reaction of the anion generated from G-1 with an appropriate aldehyde (general structure G-2) provides the hydroxy analogs of formula G-3. A two step dehydration (Kametani, T.; Katoh, T.; Tsubuki, M.; Honda, T. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1986, 108, 7055.) provides the alkene derivatives (G-4) [for the aldol reaction/dehydration of methyl tetronate ("G-1", where R.sub.1 is proton) see Pelter, A.; Al-Bayati, R. I. H.; Ayoub, M. J.; Lewis, W.; Pardasani, P.; Hansel, R. J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans. I 1987, 717] which react with either organocuprates (G-5) (For general reviews of organocuprate conjugate additions see: Lipshutz, B. H.; Sengupta, S. Org. Reactions 1992, 41, 138. Lipshutz, B. H. Synthesis, 1987, 325. Taylor, R. J. K. Synthesis 1985, 364. Posner, B. H. Org. Reactions 1972, 19, 1.) or organoaluminum reagents (G-6) (Westermann, J.; Nickisch, K. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 1993, 32, 1368.) in a conjugate manner to provide the 5.alpha.-substituted analogs of formula G-7. Demethylation with LiBr (Campbell, A. C.; Maidment, M. S.; Pick, J. H.; Stevenson, D. F. J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans. I 1985, 1567.) provides the target compounds of formula G-8.

(Chart G, "G-1" where R.sub.1 is cyclopropylmethylphenyl).
To a solution of AP-1 (20 g, 86.9 mmol) in anhydrous THF (750 ml) at ambient temperature was added cesium carbonate (39.6 g, 122 mmol). After 30 min, dimethyl sulfate (13.87 g, 110 mmol) was added and the mixture stirred for 48 h. Removal of the volatiles in vacuo provided a residue which was partitioned between chloroform and water. The organic layer was washed with water and brine, dried (Na.sub.2 SO.sub.4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Flash chromatography of the residue using methylene chloride as eluent afforded the title compound (16.4 g, 77%) as a crystalline solid: mp 65.3-65.8.degree.

To a cooled (-78.degree. C.) solution of GP-1 (4.27 g, 17.5 mmol) in anhydrous THF (300 ml) was added n-butyllithium (13.6 mL of a 1.6 M solution in hexanes, 21.76 mmol) dropwise over a period of 10 min. After an additional 10 min, hydrocinnamaldehyde ("G-2" where Z.sub.2 is 2-phenylethyl, 3.37 mL, 24.3 mmol) was added dropwise maintaining the internal reaction temperature below -77.degree. C. After 20 min, the reaction mixture was quenched with acetic acid (100 mL of a 20% solution in hexane), partially concentrated in vacuo, diluted with ethyl acetate and washed with brine. The organic layer was dried (MgSO.sub.4), filtered, and concentrated in vacuo to afford a residue that was purified by flash chromatography using hexane/2-propanol (2-15%) as eluent. Recrystallization from ethyl acetate/hexane provided GP-2 (4.13 g, 62%) as a crystalline solid; mp 115.5-117.5.degree.

Preparation GP-3
(Chart G, "G-4" where R.sub.1 is cyclopropylmethylphenyl and Z.sub.2 is 2-phenylethyl).
To a solution of GP-2 (1.84 g, 4.87 mmol), triethylamine (2.03 mL, 14.6 mmol), and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (178 mg, 1.46 mmol) in methylene chloride (50 mL) at ambient temperature was added trifluoroacetic anhydride (2.06 mL, 14.6 mmol) over a period of 15 min. After 3 hours, the reaction mixture was poured into water and extracted with methylene chloride. The combined organic extracts were washed with brine, dried (MgSO.sub.4), filtered, concentrated in vacuo and used without further purification.
The trifluoroacetate prepared above was dissolved in benzene (75 mL) and 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (873 .mu.L, 5.84 mmol) was added. The solution was heated to reflux for 1 h, then stirred overnight at ambient temperature. The volatiles were removed in vacuo and the residue dissolved in ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with 0.25 N HCl, and brine, dried (MgSO.sub.4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Flash chromatography of the residue using hexane/ethyl acetate (2-5%) as eluent afforded the title compound (1.22 g, 70%) as an oil: .sup.1 H NMR (CDCl.sub.3) .delta.7.44-7.18 (m, 10H), 5.39 (t, J=7.6 Hz, 1H), 3.85, (s, 3H), 3.16 (d, J=10.2 Hz, 1H), 2.81-2.62 (m, 4H), 1.78-1.69 (m, 1H), 0.79-0.55 (m 2H), 0.34-0.24 (m, 2H) ppm; .sup.13 C NMR (CDCl.sub.3) .delta.169.28, 161.94, 143.63, 142.46, 140.72, 128.32, 127.41, 126.44, 125.97, 110.36, 109.42, 60.44, 45.27, 34.93, 27.27, 14.35, 6.35, 4.43 ppm; EIMS m/z 360 (M.sup.+).

To a flame dried 25 mL 2-neck flask was added CuCN (56 mg, 0.63 mmol). The flask was flushed and evacuated with argon 4 times and left under an atmosphere of argon. Anhydrous ethyl ether (2 mL) was added and the suspension cooled to -78.degree. C. n-Butyllithium (790 .mu.L of a 1.6 M solution in hexanes, 1.27 mmol) was added dropwise and mixture allowed to warm to -20.degree. C. at which point dissolution was complete. The solution was recooled to -78.degree. C. and a solution of GP-3 (152 mg, 0.42 mmol) in anhydrous ethyl ether (4 mL) was added. The reaction mixture was warmed to 0-5.degree. C., stirred for 45 min then quenched by the addition of a 10% NH.sub.4 OH, saturated NH.sub.4 Cl solution (5 mL). The mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate and the organic layer washed with 0.25 N HCl and brine, dried (MgSO.sub.4), filtered and evaporated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash chromatography using hexane/ethyl acetate (1-2%) as eluant which allowed the partial separation of the mixture of stereoisomers into a faster eluting component GP4A (36 mg, 20%), a slower eluting component GP-4B (44 mg, 25%) both as oils as well as 30 mg (17%) of fractions contain both components.

CHART H
CHART H describes a method for preparing Sa-substituted tetronic acid analogs of general formulas H-5 and H-7. Wadsworth-Emmons Wittig chemistry using commercially available phosphonate esters (H-1) and commercially available or readily synthesized aldehydes (H-2) provides unsaturated esters of the general formula H-3. Reaction of these esters with the anion generated from G-1 in a Michael fashion affords the desired Sa-substituted analogs of the formula H-4. The ester functionality is readily modified as demonstrated by its selective reduction with lithium borohydride (Ireland, R. E.; Thompson, W. J. J. Org. Chem. 1979, 44, 3041.) to provide the alcohol of formula H-6. Demethylation of the protected tetronates with LiBr provides the target compounds of formula H-5 and H-7 respectively.
Preparation HP-1
(Chart H "H-3" where Z.sub.4 is 2-phenylethyl).
To a cooled (-78.degree. C.) solution of methyl diethylphosphonoacetate ("H-1", 1.48 g, 7.07 mmol) in anhydrous THF (5 mL) was added potassium tert-butoxide (6.71 mL of a 1 M solution in THF, 6.71 mmol). After 30 min, hydrocinnamaldehyde ("H-2" where Z.sub.4 is 2-phenylethyl, 980 .mu.L, 7.07 mmol) was added slowly and the mixture allowed to warm gradually to ambient temperature. After stirring for 48 h, the reaction was quenched by the addition of water (20 mL) and ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water and brine, dried (MgSO.sub.4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Flash chromatography of the residue using hexane/ethyl acetate (10%) as eluent afforded the tide compound (1.17 g, 87%) as an oil: .sup.1 H NMR (CDCl.sub.3) .delta.7.31-7.16 (m, 5H), 7.01 (dt, J=15.7 Hz, 6.8 Hz, 1H), 5.84 (dt, J=15.7, 1.5 Hz, 1H), 3.72 (s, 3H), 2.77 (t, J=8.15 Hz, 2H), 2.51 (m, 2H) ppm.

CHART I
CHART I describes a method for preparing tetronic acid derivatives of the general formula I-5 (related to general formula K-2 where X of general formula I-5 is equal to proton). This method is an improvement over the method described in Chart K when 5,5-disubstituted tetronic acids (figure "C-5" where R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 do not equal proton) are used.
Aldol condensation of tetronic acid derivatives of general formula C-5 with an aromatic aldehyde (I-1) in the presence of an appropriate Lewis acid such as aluminum chloride or boron trifluoride provides the intermediate of general formula 1-2 which may be used directly in the subsequent step without purification. Conjugate addition with either a Grignard reagent (I-3) or trialkylaluminum reagent (I-4) in the presence of copper bromide provides the tetronic acid derivatives of general formula I-5 and variable yields of the bis-addition product I-10. In the cases where X is a nitro group, transfer hydrogenation of I-5 provides the amine of general formula I-6, a versatile synthetic intermediate which may be reacted with a commercially available or readily prepared sulfonyl chloride (I-7) to prepare sulfonamides of general structure I-8. For the synthesis of sulfonyl chlorides see: Roblin, R. O.; Clapp, J. W. J. Amer. Chem. Soc. 1950, 72, 4890; Gilbert, E. E. in Sulfonation and Related Reactions Olah, G. A., Ed.

The amine I-6 may also be reacted with chloroformates to prepare carbamates of general formula I-9.
In addition to being an intermediate in the preparation of sulfonamides and carbanates, amine I-6 can be condensed with carboxylic acids to prepare various amides. For the preparation of various amides please refer to two documents: WO 94/11361, published May 26, 1994, (International Application Number PCT/U.S.93/100645, filed Nov. 9, 1993) and WO 94/18188, published Aug. 18, 1994, (International Application Number PCT/U.S.93/00938), filed Feb. 3, 1994), incorporated by reference herein. For the preparation of an amide of .beta.-alanine see WO 94/11361, Chart M, formula M-6. Preparation of another amide of .beta.-alanine, is in WO 94/18188, published Aug. 18, 1994, Chart N, formula N-2 , see also, this same document, Chart R, formula R-6. For the preparation of an amide of 3-(1-indolyl)-proprionic acid of formula N-5 see WO 94/11361, Chart N. Also see WO 94/11361 for the preparation of other amides such as N-Boc-protected amino acids, Samino acids and aryl carboxylic acids in Charts N and P, and examples 197-212 and 214-215. The amine I-6 can also be reacted with an isocyanate to form a urea, see WO 94/18188, Chart S, preparation of examples 223 and 224, or with a thioisocyanate to form a compound of general formula V-2, same document, Chart V, preparation of examples 366 and 367.

The following preparation is a modification of the procedure reported by Roblin, R. O., Clapp, J. W. J. Amer. Chem. Soc. 1950, 72, 4890 for preparing heterocyclic sulfonyl chlorides.
To a solution of 2-quinolinethiol (387 mg, 2.4 mmol) was added 1 N HCl (20 mL) causing cloudiness. The mixture was cooled (0-5.degree. C.) and chlorine gas was bubbled through the mixture for 10 minutes. Additional 1 N HCl was added (20 mL) and the solid collected by filtration. The solid was washed with ice cold water and dried briefly in vacuo. The resulting sulfonyl chloride was used without further purification or characterization.

CHART N
Chart N describes the synthesis of sulfones of the general structure N-10. Aldehyde N-1 (Baillargeon, V. P.; Stelle, J. K. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1983, 105, 7175) is protected as its tert-butyldiphenylsilyl ether (N-2) under standard conditions (Hanessian, S.; Lavallee, P. Can. J. Chem. 1975, 53, 2975). Aldol condensation with the tetronic acid C-5 and subsequent conjugate addition with the Grignard reagent N-4 by the general procedures provided by preparations IP-1 and IP-2 provides the tetronic acid of general formula N-5. Removal of the silyl ether under standard conditions and conversion to the bromide provides the halide N-7. Displacement of the halide with a thiol (N-8) provides analogs of general structure N-9. Oxidation of the sulfide with oxone or other suitable oxidants affords the requisite sulfones of structure N-10.

CHART O
Chart O describes a method for preparing aza-spirocyclic tetronic acids of general formula O-6 and O-8. Reaction of the anion of tetronic acids of general formula A-4 with N,N-bis(2-chloroethyl)-tert-butyl carbamate (O-1, Evans, B. E.; Leighton, J. L.; Rittle, K. E.; Gilbert, K. F., Lundell, G. F.; Gould, N. P.; Hobbs, D. W.; DiPardo, R. M., Veber, D. F.; Pettibone, D. J.; Clineschmidt, B. V.; Anderson, P. S.; Freidinger, R. M. J. Med. Chem. 1992, 35, 3919) provides the monoalkylated product of formula O-2. This intermediate further reacts with bases such as LDA at low temperature to provide the cycloadduct of general formula O-3. Removal of the tert-butoxycarbonyl protecting group with acid will provide the amine O-4 which may be alkylated with an alkyl halide such as O-5 or alkylated with an aldehyde of general structure O-7 under reductive conditions to provide tetronic acids of general structures O-6 and O-8, respectively.

CHART P
Chart P describes another method of preparing aza-spirocyclic tetronic acids. Condensation of the lithium anion of commercially available ethyl propriolate (C-2) with commercially available or readily prepared (Baty, J. D.; Jones, G.; Moore, C. J. Chem. Soc. (C) 1967, 2645; Stork, G.; Mcelvain, S. M. J. Amer. Chem. Soc. 1946, 68, 1053) substituted piperidones of general structure P-1 provides the hydroxy ester of general formula P-2. Sodium methoxide cyclization provides the intermediate P-3 which is subsequently deprotected to provide the aza-spirocyclic tetronic acid of general structure P-4. The 3-position would then be introduced according to chart I by substituting general structure P-4 for intermediate C-5.
Preparation PP-1
(Chart P, "P-2" where Z.sub.13 is proton and Z.sub.14 is carbethoxy)
To a cooled (-78.degree. C.) solution of ethyl propriolate (608 mg, 6.2 mmol) in anhydrous THF (15 mL) was slowly added butyllithium (3.8 mL of a 1.6 M solution in hexanes, 6.1 mmol). After stirring the solution for 10 minutes at -78.degree. C., 1-carbethoxy-4-piperidone (1.03 g, 6.0 mmol) was added. The solution was stirred for 3 h at -78.degree. C. and quenched by the addition of a 10% solution of acetic acid in hexane (2 mL). The solution was partially concentrated in vacuo and partitioned between ethyl acetate and 0.25 N aqueous HCl. The organic layer was separated and washed with brine, dried (MgSO.sub.4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo.

C.), quenched by the addition of water (10 mL) and partitioned between ethyl acetate and 0.25 N aqueous HCl. The organic layer was separated, washed with brine, dried (MgSO.sub.4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Flash chromatography of the residue using methylene chloride/methanol (0-2%) as eluent afforded the product (840 mg, 62%) as an oil: .sup.1 H NMR (CDCl.sub.3) .delta.5.06 (s, 1H), 4.18-4.10 (m, 2H), 3.91 (s, 3H), 3.68 (s, 3H), 3.30-3.19 (m, 2H), 2.06-1.91 (m, 2H), 1.61-1.56 (m, 2H); .sup.13 C NMR (CDCl.sub.3) .delta.184.39, 170.88, 155.40, 87.30, 81.25, 59.42, 52.41, 39.64, 32.21; EIMS m/z 241.
Preparation PP-3. (Chart P, "P-4" where Z.sub.13 is proton and Z.sub.14 is 9-fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl)
The product of PP-2 (840 mg, 3.5 mmol) was heated at 45.degree. C. in 48% aqueous hydrobromic acid (20 mL) for 48 h. Volatiles were removed in vacuo and the crude hydrobromide salt was dissolved in 50% aqueous dioxane (10 mL) and the pH adjusted to neutral with Na.sub.2 CO.sub.3 (ca. 1 g). The solution was cooled (0-5.degree. C.) and 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate (854 mg, 3.3 mmol) was added followed by Na.sub.2 CO.sub.3 (318 mg, 3 mmol). The solution was allowed to warm to ambient temperature and stirring continued overnight. The aqueous solution was made acidic with 1N aqueous HCl and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with 0.25 N aqueous HCl, brine, dried (MgSO.sub.4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Flash chromatography of the residue using methylene chloride/methanol (0-5%) as eluent afforded the product (900 mg, 66%) as an oil: .sup.1 H NMR (CDCl.sub.3) .delta.7.73 (d, J=7.4 Hz, 2H), 7.53 (d, J=7.4 Hz, 2H), 7.41-7.26 (m, 4H), 5.00 (s, 1H), 4.44 (d, J=6.4 Hz, 2H), 4.25-3.98 (overlapping m's, 3H), 3.28-3.06 (m, 2H), 2.02-1.82 (m, 2H), 1.59-1.53 (m, 2H); .sup.13 C NMR (CDCl.sub.3) .delta.184.69, 174.73, 155.34, 146.58, 141.29, 127.82, 127.09, 124.76, 120.06, 88.00, 82.39, 67.67, 47.17, 40.12, 32.05.
