Process of Preparation
Compounds of formula I can be prepared by the following exemplary process.
Preparation of the compound ##STR9## is described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,983,140 and 4,346,227. In the process of forming compound I, compound II is placed in an inert solvent (e.g., tetrahydrofuran or dichloromethane) under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon or nitrogen) at a temperature of about 15.degree. to 250.degree. C. and treated with an appropriate silyl protecting agent (e.g., t-butyldimethylsilyl chloride, triethylsilyl chloride, or phenyldimethylsilyl chloride) in the presence of an appropriate amine base (e.g., imidazole) to form ##STR10## wherein Pro.sup.1 is a silyl oxygen-protecting group such as ##STR11## and the like.
Compound III is hydrogenated (e.g., with hydrogen gas) in an organic solvent (e.g., ethyl acetate) in the presence of a catalyst (e.g., platinum on carbon) to form a compound of the formula ##STR12##
Compound IV is treated with a base (e.g., potassium hydroxide) in a mixture of water and an organic solvent such as toluene (optionally containing some methanol) to form the potassium salt ##STR13##
The potassium salt V is reacted in an organic solvent such as tetrahydrofuran with an organic base (e.g., pyrrolidine or piperidine) and n-butyllithium and an alkylating agent (e.g., iodomethane) in an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon) at about -60.degree. to -20.degree. C. (See European Patent Application 137,444). The resulting product is acidified, isolated and heated to about 100.degree.-110.degree. C. in an organic solvent (e.g., toluene) to form ##STR14## in which R is alkyl.
Compound VI is oxygen-protected by, for example, reaction with a protecting agent (e.g., benzyl bromomethyl ether),in the presence of an amine base (e.g., N,N-dimethylaniline) in an organic solvent (e.g., methylene chloride) to form ##STR15## wherein Pro.sup.2 is a different protecting group from Pro.sup.1 and may be selected from benzyloxymethyl (which is preferred), p-methoxybenzyloxymethyl, tetrahydrylpyranyloxy, lower acyl and the like.
Pro.sup.1 can then be removed by, for example, reaction with a deprotecting agent (e.g., hydrogen fluoride-pyridine) at about -10.degree. to 10.degree. C. under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) in an inert solvent (e.g., acetonitrile) to form ##STR16##
Compound VIII is reacted with an oxidizing agent (Dess-Martin periodinane preferred) in an organic solvent (e.g.,, methylene chloride, tert-butyl alcohol) at about 0.degree. to 25.degree. C. to form the ketone ##STR17##
Ketone IX is reacted with a monothiol or dithiol in the presence of an acid (e.g., acetic acid) and a Lewis acid catalyst (e.g., borontrifluoride etherate) in an organic solvent (e.g., methylene chloride) at about 20.degree. to 30.degree. C. to form the hydroxy-protected thioketals ##STR18## in which "alk" is alkylene, and ##STR19##
Alternatively, ketone IX is first deprotected (e.g., by hydrogen gas treatment) in an organic solvent (e.g., ethyl acetate) in the presence of a catalyst (e.g., palladium hydroxide on carbon) at about 20.degree. to 30.degree. to form ##STR20## Compound XII is reacted with a monothiol or dithiol as described above (compound IX.fwdarw.compounds X or XI) to form the formula I compounds having the more specific formulas ##STR21##
Compounds I(A) and I(B) may be oxidized with, for example, 1.0, 2.0, or 4.0 molar amounts of a peroxide or peracid (e.g., m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid for consistancy) in an organic solvent (e.g., methylene chloride) or solvent mixture (e.g., methylene chloride-methanol) at about -78.degree. to 0.degree. C. to form either the monosulfoxides ##STR22##
Compound I(B) may be reduced under free-radical reduction conditions to form ##STR23## The preferred reduction reaction uses tri-n-butyltin hydride in the presence of a free radical initiator (e.g., azabisisobutyronitrile) in refluxing benzene.
When compound I(A) is treated under these free-radical reduction conditions, it forms the compound ##STR24##
Compound I(G) may be oxidized by, for example, one or two molar equivalents of a peroxide or peracid (e.g., m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid) in an organic solvent (e.g., methylene chloride) or solvent mixture (methylene chloride-methanol) at about -78.degree. to 0.degree. C. to form a monosulfoxide ##STR25##
The following alternative exemplary process is useful in preparing compounds wherein R.sup.1 and/or R.sup.2 is hydrogen or acyl.
Compound III may be hydrogenated in an organic solvent (e.g., ethyl acetate) in the presence of a catalyst (e.g., platinum on activated carbon) to yield a compound of the formula ##STR26##
Compound XIII may be treated with a hydride reducing agent, such as diisobutylaluminum hydride (DIBAL), under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon) at about -78.degree. C. in an organic solvent (e.g., tetrahydrofuran) to yield a compound of the formula ##STR27##
An appropriate vinyl ether (e.g., 2-methoxypropene) may be added to a solution of compound XIV, followed by treatment with an acid catalyst such as pyridinium p-toluene sulfonate (PPTS) in an organic solvent (e.g., methylene chloride) at about 0.degree. C. under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon). The result is a compound of the formula ##STR28## wherein Pro.sup.3 is an alkyl group, such as methyl.
Compound XI is treated with an aqueous alkali metal hydroxide (e.g., LiOH) in an organic solvent (e.g., dioxane) to form ##STR29##
Compound XVI is then reacted with an oxidizing agent (Dess-Martin periodinane preferred) in an organic solvent (e.g., methylene chloride, tert-butyl alcohol) at about ambient temperature to form ##STR30##
Compound XVII, in turn, is treated with a catalyst such as 1,8-diazabicyclo-[5,4,0]undec-7-ene (DBU) in an organic solvent (e.g., tetrahydrofuran) at about 70.degree. to 90.degree. C. and heated to about 80.degree. to 135.degree. C. to form ##STR31##
The enone XVIII is reacted with a base (e.g., triethylamine) and a thiol acid (e.g., thiolacetic acid, thiobenzoic acid) in an organic solvent (e.g., trichloromethane) at about -10.degree. to 35.degree. C. to form ##STR32## wherein R.sup.4 is acyl.
Compound XIX is treated with a hydrogenating agent such as lithium tri-t-butoxyaluminum hydride (Li(O-t-Bu).sub.3 AlH) in an organic solvent (e.g., tetrahydrofuran) under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon) to form ##STR33##
Compound XX, in turn, is reacted with an organic acid (e.g., acetic acid) in an aqueous and organic solvent mixture (e.g., water-tetrahydrofuran) at about 0.degree. to 35.degree. C. to form ##STR34##
Compound XXI is treated with a Grignard reagent (e.g., phenylmagnesium bromide) in an organic solvent (e.g., tetrahydrofuran) at about -30.degree. to 0.degree. C. in an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon), followed by treatment with an oxidizing agent such as 1,1'-(azodicarbonyl)dipiperidine to form ##STR35##
Compound XXII is then acylated with, for example, 2,2-dimethylbutyryl chloride in an organic solvent (e.g., pyridine) in the presence of a catalytic base such as dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP) at about 60.degree. to 90.degree. C. to form ##STR36##
Compound XXIII is oxygen-deprotected with, for example, hydrogen fluoride-pyridine in an organic solvent (e.g., acetonitrile) at about -10.degree. to 10.degree. C. to form the compounds of formula I having the more specific formula ##STR37##
Alternatively, compound VIII is treated with an acylating agent (e.g., diisopropylazadicarboxylate), a thio acid (e.g., thiolacetic acid), and triphenylphosphine in an organic solvent (e.g., tetrahydrofuran) at about 0.degree. to 25.degree. C., followed by deprotection (e.g., by H.sub.2 balloon) to form compound I(K).
When compound I(K) is treated with a base (e.g., NaOH) at about -10.degree. to 10.degree. C. in an inert solvent (e.g., dioxane), compound I having the specific formula ##STR38## is formed, wherein M.sym. is alkali metal or ammonium.
Compound I wherein Z is the lactone, such as compounds I(A-K) above, may be converted to the open-chain form by hydrolysis with an aqueous ammonium or alkali metal base (e.g., lithium hydroxide) at about 20.degree. to 30.degree. C. in an inert solvent (e.g., tetrahydrofuran). R.sup.3 can be converted to hydrogen by treatment with a mild aqueous acid (e.g., potassium bisulfate). Compound I may be conventionally esterified to form compounds wherein R.sup.3 is alkyl.
Conversely, compound I wherein Z is the open chain acid such as compound I(L) above wherein M.sym. is hydrogen, may be converted to the lactone by, for example, either heating in toluene to about 100.degree. to 135.degree. C. or treating with a catalytic amount of trifluoroacetic acid at about ambient temperature in an organic solvent (e.g., tetrahydrofuran).
The following working examples represent preferred embodiments of the invention and are illustrative rather than limiting. Unless otherwise specified, all temperatures are in degrees Celsius (.degree. C.). The preparation of each compound appears below its name. As a shorthand reference, the compound prepared in part 1-A will be called .cent.Compound 1-A" or "intermediate 1-A" and so forth for all compounds hereafter.

EXAMPLE 1
[1S-[1.alpha.,4a.alpha.,7.beta.,8.beta.(2S*,4S*),8a.beta.]]-2,2-Dimethylbutanoic acid, 3,3-bis(methylthio)decahydro-7-methyl-8-[2-(tetrahydro-4-hydroxy-6-oxo-2H-pyran-2-yl)ethyl]-1-naphthalenyl ester
1-A. [1S-[1.alpha.(R*),3.beta.,4.beta.,7.beta.,8.beta.(2S*,4S*),8a.beta.]]-2-Methylbutanoic acid, 3-[[(1, 1-dimethylethyl)dimethylsilyl]oxy]-1,2,3,7,8,8a-hexahydro-7-methyl-8-[2-(tetrahydro-4-hydroxy-6-oxo-2H-pyran-2-yl)ethyl]-1-naphthalenyl ester
The starting material for preparation of intermediate A was [1S-[1.alpha.(R*),3.beta.,4.beta.,7.beta.,8.beta.(2S*, 4S*),8a.beta.]]-2-methylbutanoic acid, 3-hydroxy-1,2, 3,7,8,8a-hexahydro-7-methyl-8-[2-(tetrahydro-4-hydroxy-6-oxo-2H-pyran-2-yl)ethyl]-1-naphthalenyl ester. Preparation of this starting material has been described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,983,140 and 4,346,227.
A solution of 8.43 g (20.7 mmol, 1.00 eq.) of the starting material in 80 ml of dry tetrahydrofuran under argon at ambient temperature was treated with 1.76 g (25.9 mmol, 1.25 eq.) of imidazole, followed by 3.44 g (22.8 mmol, 1.10 eq.) of t-butyldimethylsilyl chloride. A white precipitate formed almost immediately (5-10 sec). After stirring for 26 hours, the reaction mixture was diluted with 80 ml of ether, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Purification of the residue by flash chromatography (with Merck silica gel; 40% ethyl acetate in hexanes) gave 7.41 g (a 69% yield) of the mono-silylated product (intermediate 1-A) as a white solid, with a melting point of 111.degree. to 115.degree. C. More typical yields for this conversion are in the range of 80 to 85%. Lowering the temperature of the reaction or slowly adding a solution of t-butyldimethyl silyl chloride in tetrahydrofuran improves the yield somewhat.
1-B. [1S-[1.alpha.(R*),3.beta.,4a.alpha.,7.beta.,8.beta.(2S*,4S*),8a.beta.]]-2-Methylbutanoic acid,3-[[(1,1-dimethylethyl)dimethylsilyl]oxy]decahydro-7-methyl-8-[2-(tetrahydro-4-hydroxy-6-oxo-2H-pyran-2-yl)ethyl]-1-naphthalenyl ester
To a degassed, argon-purged-solution of 9.38 g (18.0 mmol) of Compound 1-A in 200 ml of ethyl acetate was added 1.4 g of 10% platinum on carbon. This suspension was subjected to 50 psi of H.sub.2 in a consumption of starting material with generation of the desired product and some desilylated product. The filtered reaction mixture was concentrated and the products were isolated by flash chromatography. Elution with 45% hexanes in ethyl acetate gave 7.73 g (82%) of compound 1-B as a clear glass and elution with 30% hexanes in ethyl acetate gave 0.98 g (13%) of desilylated product.
1C. [1S-[1.alpha.(R*),3.beta.,4a.alpha.,7.beta.,8.beta.(2S*,4S*),8a.beta.]]-2,2-Dimethylbutanoic acid,3-[[(1,1-dimethylethyl)dimethylsilyl]oxy]decahydro-7-methyl-8-[2-(tetrahydro-4-hydroxy-6-oxo-2H-pyran-2-yl)ethyl]-1-naphthalenyl ester
A solution of compound 1-B (10.5 g, 20.04 mmol) in a mixture of toluene (200 mL) and methanol (42 mL) was treated with 1.0 N potassium hydroxide (20 mL) at room temperature under an atmosphere of nitrogen for 45 minutes. The solvent was evaporated in vacuo to give a gum. This gum was azeotroped with benzene (250 mL) and then dried in vacuo at 45.degree. (oil bath temperature) overnight to give a foamy solid.
To a chilled (-55.degree., acetonitrile-dry ice bath) and stirred solution of the above solid in dry tetrahydrofuran (150 mL) under an atmosphere of nitrogen was added dry pyrrolidine (6.48 mL, 77.63 mmol), followed by U-butyllithium (2.5M in hexane, 27.84 mL, 69.6 mmol). The mixture was gradually warmed up to -25.degree. (carbon tetrachloride-dry ice bath) and stirred for 2.5 hours. Iodomethane (3.12 mL, 50.12 mmol) was added dropwise. After 1.0 hour, a small aliquot was worked up. .sup.1 H-NMR spectrum indicated there was 15-20% non-methylated starting material present. Therefore, the mixture was recooled to -55.degree., more dry pyrrolidine (3.24 mL) and n-butyllithium (2.5M in hexane, 13.92 mL) were added, and the mixture was warmed up to -25+. After 2.5 hours, iodomethane (1.56 mL) was added and the mixture was stirred for another hour. The resulting mixture was quenched with 10% potassium bisulfate solution (100 mL) at -25.degree., warmed up to room temperature, saturated with sodium chloride and extracted with ethyl acetate (3.times.100 mL). The combined ethyl acetate extracts were washed with a small amount of 5% sodium bicarbonate and brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated in vacuo to give a gummy residue (11.0 g).
The above gum was refluxed in dry toluene (200 mL) under an atmosphere of nitrogen for 4.0 hours. The solvent was then evaporated in vacuo to give a gummy material. This gum was chromatographed on a column of silica gel (LPS-1, 450 g), eluting with ethyl acetate-hexane (1:3) to give 7.3 g (67.5%) of Compound 1-C as a gum with consistent .sup.1 H-NMR and .sup.13 C-NMR spectra.

To a chilled (0.degree., ice bath) and stirred solution of Compound 1-C (7.3 g, 13.52 mmol) in dry dichloromethane (80 mL) under an atmosphere of nitrogen was added dry N,N-dimethylaniline (3.7 g, 30.53 mmol). After 15 minutes, benzyl bromomethyl ether (5.62 g, 26.13 mmol) was added. The resulting solution was gradually warmed up to room temperature and stirred for 20 hours. The solvent was partially removed in vacuo. Ethyl acetate (300 mL) was added. The ethyl acetate solution was washed with a 10% potassium bisulfate solution, a saturated sodium bicarbonate solution and brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated in vacuo to give an oil. This oil was chromatographed on a column of silica gel (LPS-1, 300 g), eluting with ethyl acetate-hexane (1:9) to give 8.5 g (95.4%) of Compound 1-D as an oil with consistent .sup.1 H-NMR and .sup.13 C-NMR spectra.

A solution of Compound 1-D (8.5 g, 12.9 mmol) in dry acetonitrile (100 mL) was cooled to 0.degree. (ice bath) under an atmosphere of nitrogen and treated with two 4 mL portions of hydrogen fluoride-pyridine over 1.5 hours. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (200 mL), washed with a 10% potassium hydrogen sulfate solution, brine and a dilute sodium bicarbonate solution, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated in vacuo to give a gum. This gum was chromatographed on a column of silica gel (Baker 60-200 mesh, 300 g), eluting with ethyl acetate-hexane (35:65 and 1:1) to give 6.0 g (85.4%) of Compound 1-E as a solid (m.p. 73.degree.-77.degree.) with consistent .sup.1 H-NMR and .sup.13 C-NMR spectra.

To a stirred suspension of Dess-Martin periodinane (514 mg, 1.212 mmol) in dichloromethane (5 ml) at room temperature under an atmosphere of nitrogen was added dropwise a solution of Compound 1-E (600 mg, 1.102 mmol) in dichloromethane (10 ml) followed by t-butyl alcohol (114 .mu.l, 1.212 mmol). After 1.5 hours, the mixture was poured into a stirred mixture of sodium bicarbonate (500 mg) in 0.5M sodium thiosulfate (10 ml) and dichloromethane (75 ml). The mixture was stirred vigorously until the two layers were clear. The dichloromethane layer was separated, washed with brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and evaporated in vacuo to give a gum. This gum was flash-chromatographed on a column of silica gel (LPS-1, 40 g), eluting with ethyl acetate-hexane (3:7) to give 455 mg (76.1%) of compound 1-F as a gum with consistent .sup.1 H-NMR and .sup.13 C-NMR spectra.
1-G. [1S-[1.alpha.(R*),3.beta.,4a.alpha., 7.beta.,8.beta.(2S*,4S*),8a.beta.]]-2,2-Dimethylbutanoic acid, 3-oxodecahydro-7-methyl-8-[2-(tetrahydro-4-hydroxy-6-oxo-2H-pyran-2-yl)ethyl]-1-naphthalenyl ester
A slow stream of hydrogen was bubbled through a solution of Compound 1-F (60 mg, 0.111 mmol) in ethyl acetate (6 ml) containing 20% palladium hydroxide on carbon (60 mg) and glacial acetic acid (1 drop). After 2 hours, the mixture was filtered through a bed of Celite.RTM. and was washed with small amounts of ethyl acetate. The filtrate and washings were combined and evaporated in vacuo to give a gum.

A solution of Example 1 (1.50 mg, 0.30 mmol) in dichloromethane (5.0 ml) containing methanol (1.0 ml) was cooled and stirred in a dry ice-acetone bath at -78.degree. and a solution of 90% m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (56.8 mg, 0.3 mmol) in dichloromethane was added dropwise. The solution was then allowed to warm gradually to room temperature in the course of 3.0 hours. A TLC examination (silica gel, ethyl acetate) showed the complete absence of starting material, suggesting that sulfone formation did not occur. A slight excess of ethereal diazomethene was then added (in order to convert the acid into the methyl ester to facilitate purification), and after a few minutes, the mixture was concentrated in vacuo. The residual gum was subjected to chromatography on a column of Baker 60-200 mesh silica gel (15 g), eluting the column with dichloromethane, dichloromethane-ethyl acetate (1:1) and ethyl acetate-methanol (95:5) to afford Example 7 as a white foamy solid (139.3 mg, 90%). The H.sup.1 -NMR spectrum in CDCl.sub.3 was consistent with the structure and showed that it was a mixture of two sulfoxide isomers in the approximate ratio 75:25. These were not readily separable by TLC. Attempts made to crystallize it from ethyl acetate-hexane and ether-hexane were unsuccessful.

Monitoring by TLC showed the formation of a number of more polar spots due to intermediates, but after 18 hours only a single more polar spot resulting from Example 9 was noted. An excess of the peracid was present at this stage, as indicated by a starch-Kl paper test. This excess was destroyed by the addition of a small amount of cyclohexene and stirring for a few minutes. A slight excess of diazomethane in ether was then added to convert all the acid into ester. After a few minutes, the mixture was evaporated in vacuo and the residual oil was chromatographed on a column of silica gel (Baker 60-200 mesh, 12.0 g), eluting the column with dichloromethane, dichloromethane-ethyl acetate mixtures, ethyl acetate and ethyl acetate-reethanol (95%) to afford homogeneous (TLC) Example 9 as a solid (90 mg, 72.5%) with a consistent H.sup.1 -NMR spectrum.

A moderate excess of ethereal diazomethane was then added (in order to convert the acid into the less polar ester to facilitate purification by chromatography), and after a few minutes, the mixture was concentrated in vacuo. The residue was subjected to column chromatography on Baker 60-200 mesh silica gel (10 g), eluting with dichloromethane and dichloromethane-ethyl acetate (1:1) to afford Example 15 as a homogeneous (TLC, R.sub.f =0.33, silica gel, ethyl acetate), colorless powder (137 mg, 86%). Both H.sup.1 and C.sup.13 -NMR spectra of this were consistent with the structure.

A solution of 30.3 g (0.0477 mol) of intermediate 25-A in about 250 mL of ethyl acetate was thoroughly degassed and purged with argon. Platinum on carbon (Pt-C) catalyst (1.5 g) was added, and the mixture was subjected to 50 psi of H.sub.2 pressure under agitation in a parr apparatus overnight (18 hours). An aliquot of the reaction mixture was treated with HF, and analysis of this by thin layer chromatography indicated that the reaction was incomplete.

A stirred solution of Example 32-B (100 mg, 0.206 mmol, S-configuration at sulfur) in tetrahydrofuran (25 ml) at room temperature under an atmosphere or argon was treated with 1.0N lithium hydroxide (412 pl, 0.412 mmol). After 2.5 hours, the solvent was mostly evaporated by a stream of nitrogen to leave a gummy residue. This residue was dissolved in water and chromatographed on a column of HP-20 (1.5".times.1.0" column bed), eluting with deionized, distilled water (250 ml) and 70% methanol-water (250 ml) to give in the later eluate TLC-homogeneous Example 34. This eluate was evaporated In vacuo and lyophilized overnight to give 100 mg (92.9%) of a hydrated analytical specimen of Example 34 as a white solid with consistent IR, mass and H.sup.1 -NMR spectral data.

A stirred solution of Example 28 (75 mg, 0.16 mmol) in a mixture of dichloromethane (2.0 ml) and methanol (0.4 ml) at room temperature under an atmosphere of argon was treated with m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid (80-85%, 82 mg, 0.40 mmol). After 2 hours, the excess m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid was destroyed with two drops of cyclohexane. After a few minutes, the solvent was evaporated by a stream of nitrogen. The residue was redissolved in tetrahydrofuran-ethyl ether (3:1, 3 ml), treated with a slight excess diazomethane in ethyl ether (to convert the acid into ester) and stirred for 0.5 hours. The excess diazomethane was destroyed by two drops of glacial acetic acid. The solvent was evaporated by a stream of nitrogen. The gummy residue was chromatographed on a column of silica gel (20 g, Baker 60-200 mesh), eluting successively with ethyl acetate-hexane (4:6, 5:5 and 6:4) to give TLC-homogeneous Example 28 (70 mg, 87.4%) as a gum with consistent H.sup.1 -NMR and C.sup.13 -NMR spectral data.
