Description
FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present invention provides novel substituted hydropyrido[3,2,1-ij]quinoline compounds, and their uses in medicaments for the treatment of mammals with diseases and conditions that are alleviated by sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptors modulation.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Sphingosine is a compound having the chemical structure shown in the general formula described below, in which Y1 is hydrogen. It is known that various sphingolipids, having sphingosine as a constituent, are widely distributed in the living body including on the surface of cell membranes of cells in the nervous system.

A sphingolipid is one of the lipids having important roles in the living body. A disease called lipidosis is caused by accumulation of a specified sphingolipid in the body. Sphingolipids present on cell membranes function to regulate cell growth; participate in the development and differentiation of cells; function in nerves; are involved in the infection and malignancy of cells; etc. Many of the physiological roles of sphingolipids remain to be solved. Recently the possibility that ceramide, a derivative of sphingosine, has an important role in the mechanism of cell signal transduction has been indicated, and studies about its effect on apoptosis and cell cycle have been reported.


Sphingosine-1-phosphate is an important cellular metabolite, derived from ceramide that is synthesized de novo or as part of the sphingomeyeline cycle (in animals cells). It has also been found in insects, yeasts and plants.


The enzyme, ceramidase, acts upon ceramides to release sphingosine, which is phosphorylated by sphingosine kinase, a ubiquitous enzyme in the cytosol and endoplasmic reticulum, to form sphingosine-1-phosphate. The reverse reaction can occur also by the action of sphingosine phosphatases, and the enzymes act in concert to control the cellular concentrations of the metabolite, which concentrations are always low. In plasma, such concentration can reach 0.2 to 0.9 μM, and the metabolite is found in association with the lipoproteins, especially the HDL. It should also be noted that sphingosine-1-phosphate formation is an essential step in the catabolism of sphingoid bases.


Like its precursors, sphingosine-1-phosphate is a potent messenger molecule that perhaps uniquely operates both intra- and inter-cellularly, but with very different functions from ceramides and sphingosine. The balance between these various sphingolipid metabolites may be important for health. For example, within the cell, sphingosine-1-phosphate promotes cellular division (mitosis) as opposed to cell death (apoptosis), which it inhibits. Intracellularly, it also functions to regulate calcium mobilization and cell growth in response to a variety of extracellular stimuli. Current opinion appears to suggest that the balance between sphingosine-1-phosphate and ceramide and/or sphingosine levels in cells is critical for their viability.


In common with the lysophospholipids, especially lysophosphatidic acid, with which it has some structural similarities, sphingosine-1-phosphate exerts many of its extra-cellular effects through interaction with five specific G protein-coupled receptors on cell surfaces, known as endothelium differentiation gene receptors (“Edg” or “S1P” receptors).


S1P3 receptor is one of the receptors interacting with sphingosine-1-phosphate. S1P3 receptor, alone or together with other S1P receptors, involves in many critical biological processes, such as the growth of new blood vessels, vascular maturation, cardiac development and immunity, as well as for directed cell movement. S1P3 receptor modulators are needed for therapeutic uses.

For the purposes of this disclosure, “treat,” “treating,” or “treatment” refer to the diagnosis, cure, mitigation, treatment, or prevention of disease or other undesirable condition.


The compounds of present invention may be identified either by their chemical structures and/or chemical names. If the chemical structure and the chemical name conflict, the chemical structure is determinative of the identity of the compound.


The compounds of the invention may contain one or more chiral centers and/or double bonds and therefore, may exist as stereoisomers, such as double-bond isomers, enantiomers or diastereomers. Accordingly, the chemical structures depicted herein encompass all possible enantiomers and stereoisomers, including the stereoisomerically pure form and enantiomeric and stereoisomeric mixtures. The compounds of the invention may also exist in several tautomeric forms, including but not limiting to, the enol form, the keto form and mixtures thereof. Accordingly, the chemical structures depicted herein encompass all possible tautomeric forms. The compounds of the invention also include isotopically labeled compounds where one or more atoms have an atomic mass different from the atomic mass conventionally found in nature.


Further, the compounds of the invention should be construed broadly to include their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, prodrugs, alternate solid forms, non-covalent complexes, and combinations thereof, unless otherwise indicated.


A pharmaceutically acceptable salt is any salt of the parent compound that is suitable for administration to a mammal, including human. A pharmaceutically acceptable salt also refers to any salt which may form in vivo as a result of administration of an acid, another salt, or a prodrug which is converted into an acid or salt. A salt comprises one or more ionic forms of the compound, such as a conjugate acid or base, associated with one or more corresponding counter-ions. Salts can form from or incorporate one or more deprotonated acidic groups (e.g. carboxylic acids), one or more protonated basic groups (e.g. amines), or both (e.g. zwitterions).


A prodrug is a compound which is converted to a therapeutically active compound after administration. For example, conversion may occur by hydrolysis of an ester group or some other biologically labile groups. Prodrug preparation is well known in the art. For example, “Prodrugs and Drug Delivery Systems,” which is a chapter in Richard B. Silverman, Organic Chemistry of Drug Design and Drug Action, 2d Ed., Elsevier Academic Press: Amsterdam, 2004, pp. 496-557, provides further detail on this subject.


Alternate solid forms are different solid forms than those that may result from practicing the procedures described herein. For example, alternate solid forms may be polymorphs, different kinds of amorphous solid forms, glasses, and the like.


Non-covalent complexes are complexes that may form between the compound and one or more additional chemical species that do not involve a covalent bonding interaction between the compound and the additional chemical species. They may or may not have a specific ratio between the compound and the additional chemical species. Examples include solvates, hydrates, charge transfer complexes, and the like.


Hydrocarbyl consists of carbon and hydrogen, wherein each carbon has 4 covalent bonds and each hydrogen has a single bond to a carbon atom. “Hydrocarbyl fragments” has the same meaning as “hydrocarbyl,” but is merely used for convenience for counting purposes. For example, one or more hydrocarbyl fragments means, 1, 2, or more distinct parts that each consists of hydrocarbyl, which may be interrupted by another moiety. For example, a functional group may be attached to 2 distinct hydrocarbyl fragments.


Hydrocarbyl includes alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl containing only hydrogen and carbon, and combinations thereof. Hydrocarbyl may be linear, branched, cyclic (aromatic or non-aromatic), or combinations thereof, which can be further substituted.


Alkyl is a hydrocarbyl having no double bonds. Examples include methyl, ethyl, propyl isomers, butyl isomers, pentyl isomers, hexyl isomers, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, etc.


Alkenyl is a hydrocarbyl having one or more double bonds. Examples include ethenyl, propenyl, butenyl isomers, pentenyl isomers, hexenyl isomers, cyclopentenyl, cyclohexenyl, etc.


Alkynyl is a hydrocarbyl having one or more triple bonds. Examples include ethynyl, propynyl, butynyl isomers, pentynyl isomers, hexynyl isomers, cyclopentynyl, cyclohexynyl, etc.


Aryl is a substituted or unsubstituted aromatic ring or ring system. It can be hydrocarbon-aryl or heteroaryl. Examples of hydrocarbon-aryl include substituted and unsubstituted phenyl, naphthyl, and biphenyl. Such aryl group can be bonded to other moieties within the molecule at any position.


Each hydrogen atom has one covalent bond to carbon (C), nitrogen (N), oxygen (O), or sulfur (S).


Halo or halo atoms are fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), and iodine (I). Each halo atom forms a single bond to a carbon atom. Halohydrocarbyl is a hydrocarbyl having one or more F, Cl, Br, or I as substituents.


Heterohydrocarbyl refers to a hydrocarbyl as defined above with at least one non-carbon atom(s) presented at the backbone, including but not limiting to, oxygen (O), sulfur (S), nitrogen (N), phosphor (P), and halo atoms. Heterohydrocarbyl may be linear, branched, cyclic (aromatic or non-aromatic), or combinations thereof, which can be further substituted.


Examples of heterohydrocarbyl include: —R10-G1-R11, R10-HI, -G1-R10, -G1-R10-HI, G1-R10-G2, and G1-R10-G2-R11, wherein R10 and R11 are independently hydrocarbyl or hydrogen (provided that hydrogen is attached to only one C, N, O, or S atom), G1 and G2 are independently functional groups, and HI is halo.


Additional examples of heterohydrocarbyl are depicted below, wherein R10, R11, R12, and R13 are independently hydrocarbyl or hydrogen. Other possibilities exist, but are not depicted here.

To a solution 4-Nitroaniline (Intermediate 1) (1.8 g, 10 mmol) in acetonitrile (8 mL) was added one equivalent of trifluoroacetic acid (1.14 g, 10 mmol). To this suspension was added with stirring a heterogeneous mixture of styrene (Intermediate 2), (5.74 mL, 50 mmol) and 37% formaldehyde solution (4.06 mL, 50 mmol) under argon, which gave a yellow precipitate. The precipitate failed to re-dissolve after 30 min. of stirring at room temperature, so the mixture was heated at reflux under argon for further 30 min, during which time the precipitate re-dissolved. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature. The precipitate was filtered and wash with acetonitrile gave yellow solid, 9-nitro-1,7-diphenyl-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydropyrido[3,2,1-ij]quinoline (Intermediate 3), (1.53 g, 41%).


A solution of 9-nitro-1,7-diphenyl-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydropyrido[3,2,1-ij]quinoline (Intermediate 3), (1.2 g, 7.06 mmol), in MeOH (100 mL) was subjected to hydrogenation reaction by the action of 10% Pd/C (120 mg) under H2 balloon at room temperature for 12 h. The mixture was filtered through Celite and freed of solvent under reduced pressure to get 1,7-diphenyl-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydropyrido[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-9-amine (Intermediate 4) as a solid, (1.08 g, 98%).


To a solution 1,7-diphenyl-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydropyrido[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-9-amine (Intermediate 4), (207 mg, 0.608 mmol) in dichloromethane (10 mL) was added three equivalent of triethyl amine (0.252 mL, 1.8 mmol), followed by methyl chloroformate (0.071 mL, 0.91 mmol) under argon at 0° C. The reaction mixture was then stirred at room temperature for overnight. The mixture was quenched with water (30 mL). The residue was isolated in a typical aqueous workup and purified by MPLC (medium pressure liquid chromatography) using silica gel column with 10 to 15% EtOAc:Hexane to give methyl 1,7-diphenyl-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydropyrido[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-9-ylcarbamate (272), (181 mg 75%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ ppm 2.00-2.18 (m, 2H) 2.22-2.39 (m, 2H) 3.03-3.22 (m, 4H) 3.50-3.64 (m, 3H) 3.54-3.65 (m, 3H) 4.05-4.23 (m, 2H) 6.61 (br. s., 2H) 7.08-7.38 (m, 10H).


Method A2: Preparation of methyl (1S,7S)-1,7-dimethyl-1,7-diphenyl-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydropyrido[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-9-ylcarbamate, (829), and methyl (1R,7S)-1,7-dimethyl-1,7-diphenyl-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydropyrido[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-9-ylcarbamate (353)

To a solution 4-Nitroaniline (1) (4.1 g, 30 mmol) in acetonitrile (30 mL) was added one equivalent of trifluoroacetic acid (2.3 mL, 30 mmol). To this suspension was added with stirring a heterogeneous mixture of styrene (2), (19.4 mL, 150 mmol) and 37% formaldehyde solution (12.2 mL, 150 mmol) under argon gave yellow precipitate. The precipitate had failed to re-dissolve after 30 min. of stirring at room temperature, so the mixture was heated at reflux under argon for further 30 min, during which time the precipitate re-dissolved. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature. After general workup afforded mixture of three intermediates 3 (836 mg), 4 (2 g), and 5 (4.2 g), confirmed by Mass Spectra and 1HNMR (see ref. John M. Mellor; et al; Tetrahedron, 1995, 6115). These intermediates were then converted into the cycloadduct product by heating at reflux with trifluoroacetic acid in acetonitrile yielded 1,7-dimethyl-9-nitro-1,7-diphenyl-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydropyrido[3,2,1-ij]quinoline (6) (7.036 g, 59%) as a solid. This solid product (6) was then separated to trans and cis isomers by washing with ether gave trans (7), (4.0 g) and hexane:CH2Cl2 gave cis (8), (2.8 g).


A mixture of (1S,7S)-1,7-dimethyl-9-nitro-1,7-diphenyl-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydropyrido[3,2,1-ij]quinoline (7), (2 g, 5 mmol), in THF (60 mL) was subjected to hydrogenation reaction by the action of 10% Pd/C (200 mg) under H2 balloon at room temperature for 12 h. The mixture was filtered through Celite and freed of solvent under reduced pressure to get (1S,7S)-1,7-dimethyl-1,7-diphenyl-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydropyrido[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-9-amine (9) as a solid, (1.5 g, 100%) on the basis of recovered starting material (7), (390 mg).


Following a procedure similar to that for (9) gained (1R,7S)-1,7-dimethyl-1,7-diphenyl-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydropyrido[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-9-amine (10) as a solid (2.55 g, 100% yield) from (8).


To a solution (1S,7S)-1,7-dimethyl-9-nitro-1,7-diphenyl-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydropyrido[3,2,1-ij]quinoline (7), (115 mg, 0.31 mmol), in dichloromethane (15 mL) was added three equivalent of triethyl amine (0.129 mL, 0.93 mmol), followed by methyl chloroformate (0.031 mL, 0.406 mmol) under argon at 0° C. The reaction mixture was then stirred at room temperature for overnight. The mixture was quenched with water (30 mL). The residue was isolated in a typical aqueous workup and purified by MPLC (medium pressure liquid chromatography) using silica gel column with 10 to 15% EtOAc:Hexane to give methyl (1S,7S)-1,7-dimethyl-1,7-diphenyl-1,2,3,5,6,7-hexahydropyrido[3,2,1-ij]quinolin-9-ylcarbamate (829), (69 mg 52%). 1H NMR (300 MHz, Acetone-d6) ppm 1.72 (s, 6H) 1.89-2.03 (m, 2H) 2.17-2.30 (m, 2H) 2.73-2.88 (m, 2H) 2.92-3.03 (m, 2H) 3.56 (s, 3H) 7.05-7.33 (m, 12H) 8.02 (br. s., 1H).

Biological Data:


The compounds of the invention are assessed for their ability to activate or block activation of the human S1P3 receptor in T24 cells stably expressing the human S1P3 receptor using the method described in paragraph [0067] of United States Patent Application Publication No. 20070232682, which published on Oct. 4, 2007, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.


Ten thousands cells/well are plated into 384-well poly-D-lysine coated plates one day prior to use. The growth media for the S1P3 receptor expressing cell line is McCoy's 5A medium supplemented with 10% charcoal-treated fetal bovine serum (FBS), 1% antibiotic-antimycotic and 400 μg/ml geneticin. On the day of the experiment, the cells are washed twice with Hank's Balanced Salt Solution supplemented with 20 mM HEPES (HBSS/Hepes buffer). The cells are then dye loaded with 2 μM Fluo-4 diluted in the HBSS/Hepes buffer with 1.25 mM Probenecid and incubated at 37° C. for 40 minutes. Extracellular dye is removed by washing the cell plates four times prior to placing the plates in the FLIPR (Fluorometric Imaging Plate Reader, Molecular Devices). Ligands are diluted in HBSS/Hepes buffer and prepared in 384-well microplates. The positive control, Sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P), is diluted in HBSS/Hepes buffer with 4 mg/ml fatty acid free bovine serum albumin. The FLIPR transfers 12.5 μl from the ligand microplate to the cell plate and takes fluorescent measurements for 75 seconds, taking readings every second, and then for 2.5 minutes, taking readings every 10 seconds. Compounds are tested over the concentration range of 0.61 nM to 10,000 nM. Data for calcium ion (Ca+2) responses are obtained in arbitrary fluorescence units and not translated into Ca+2 concentrations. IC50 values (nM) are determined through a linear regression analysis using the Levenburg Marquardt algorithm.
