The subject matter described herein is directed to pyruvate kinase activating compounds, methods of making the compounds, pharmaceutical compositions, and their use in the treatment of diseases associated with PKR and/or PKM2.
Pyruvate kinase (PK) is an essential component of cellular metabolism, converting ADP and phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) to pyruvate in the final step of glycolysis. There are four unique isoforms of pyruvate kinase that vary in concentration by different tissue types (Dayton et al., EMBO Rep. 2016 17(12):1721-1730); Israelsen and Vander Heiden, Semin. Cell Dev. Biol. 2015 July; 43:43-51; Mazurek, Int. J. Biochem. Cell Biol. 2011 July; 43(7):969-80). Each isomer is responsible for catalyzing the production of pyruvate and ATP, while being regulated in a manner respective to each tissue type.
Pyruvate kinase in the liver (PKL) and pyruvate kinase from erythrocytes/red blood cells (PKR) are tetrameric enzymes that depend on an endogenous activator called fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (FBP) for activation (Koler and Vanbellinghen, Adv. Enzyme Regul. 1968 6:127-42; Taylor and Bailey, Biochem J. 1967 967 February; 102(2):32C-33C). The PKM1 isoform is found in the brain, heart, and skeletal muscle where it functions as a stable and constitutively active tetrameric protein. PKM1 therefore does not require FBP for activation. The PKM2 isomer is expressed in most tissue types, including cancers, developing embryos, and all proliferative tissues. Similar to PKR and PKL, PKM2 requires FBP for allosteric activation via stabilization of the enzyme in a tetrameric and most active form (Cardenas and Dyson, J. Exp. Zool. 1978 June; 204(3):361-7; Imamura and Tanaka, J. Biochem. 1972 June; 71(6):1043-51; Strandholm et al., Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 1976 March; 173(1):125-31).
Mature red blood cells (RBCs) rely on glycolysis for energy production. All tumor cells exclusively express the PKM2 isoform, suggesting that PKM2 would be a good target for cancer therapy. PKM2 is also expressed in adipose tissue and activated T-cells. Thus, controlling the regulation of PKM2 activity may be effective for treatment of obesity and diabetes in addition to cancer.
Genetic mutations in all glycolytic enzymes result in hemolytic anemia (Van Wijk and Van Solinge, Blood 2005 106 (13): 4034-4042.). Mutations in PKL and PKR that result in a loss of function are known to cause PK deficiency (PKD) and the clinical manifestation of these mutations appear confined to RBCs.
There are greater than 200 known and reported mutations associated with PKD reported worldwide (Zanella et al., J. Haematol. 2005 July; 130(1):11-25). Some mutations directly disrupt catalytic activity of the PK enzyme while other mutations disrupt the interactions between monomers that stabilize the active tetrameric enzyme. The mutation of Arginine residue 510 to Glutamine is one of the most common mutations found in North American and European patients, ˜40% of patients, and is known to disrupt stability of the PKR tetramer (Kedar et al., Clin. Genet. 2009 February; 75(2):157-62; Wang et al., Blood 2001 Nov. 15; 98(10):3113-20).
Patients with PKD suffer from chronic hemolytic anemia in addition to multiple co-morbidities. Blood transfusions and splenectomy are common treatments and it has been suggested that gene therapies could be used for treatment of PKD in the near future (Garcia-Gomez et al., Molecular Therapy 2016 Aug. 1; 24(7); Grace et al., Am. J. Hematol. 2015 September; 90(9):825-30).
The number of PKD patients worldwide is unknown; however, the prevalence in the general Caucasian population is estimated to be around 1:20,000 people with 51 cases per million people in North America (Beutler and Gelbart, Blood 2000 Jun. 1; 95(11):3585-8).
There are no approved drugs for the treatment of PKD. Clinically, hereditary PKR deficiency disorder manifests as a non-spherocytic hemolytic anemia. The clinical severity of this disorder ranges from no observable symptoms in fully-compensated hemolysis to potentially fatal severe anemia requiring chronic transfusions and/or splenectomy at early development or during physiological stress. For some of the most severe cases, while extremely rare population-wise with estimated frequency of 1 in 20,000 patients, there is no disease modifying treatment besides transfusions. These hereditary non-spherocytic hemolytic anemia patients present a clear unmet medical need. RBCs from patients with either sickle cell anemia or with beta-thalassemia suffer from increased ATP demand to maintain overall RBC health. The activation of PKR in both sickle cell disease patients and beta-thalassemia patients could lead to improved cell fitness and survival.
What is therefore needed and not effectively addressed by the art are compounds that act as pyruvate kinase activators that have desired efficacy and therapeutic potential. This problem as well as others stemming from pyruvate kinase deficiency are addressed by the subject matter described herein.

As shown in a mouse model of beta-thalassemia, the PKR activator in clinical trials, AG-348, increased PK activity and ATP levels, as well as improved RBC parameters. Similar results were obtained from treating human beta-thalassemia RBCs ex vivo (Kuo et al., Mitapivat (AG-348), an oral PK-R activator, in adults with non-transfusion-dependent thalassemia: A phase 2, open-label, multicenter study in progress; 61st Am. Soc. Hematol. Annual Meeting, December 2019).
The compounds of Formula I described herein are useful in the treatment of diseases or disorders associated with pyruvate kinase function. As demonstrated by the biochemical assays described herein, the compounds of Formula I activate PKR and/or PKM2. In certain embodiments, the compounds described herein are more effective at activating PKR and/or PKM2 than AG-348. The compounds of Formula I are useful in the treatment of diseases including, but not limited to, pyruvate kinase deficiency and sickle cell disease, such as sickle cell anemia, and beta-thalassemia. Also, the compounds are methods described herein are useful in treating cancer.
Pyruvate kinase activators are needed that also possess additional beneficial properties such as improved solubility, stability, and/or potency. An advantage of the pyruvate kinase activator compounds of Formula I described herein is their preparation in sufficient yields by the synthetic routes disclosed herein.

In certain embodiments, “substituted” also means any of the above groups in which one or more (e.g., 1 to 5, 1 to 4, or 1 to 3) hydrogen atoms are replaced by a bond to an amino, cyano, hydroxyl, nitro, oxo, halo, alkyl, alkoxy, alkylamino, aryl, cycloalkyl, haloalkyl, heterocyclyl, N-heterocyclyl, heteroaryl, or two of Rg and Rh and R′ are taken together with the atoms to which they are attached to form a heterocyclyl ring optionally substituted with oxo, halo or alkyl optionally substituted with oxo, halo, amino, hydroxyl, or alkoxy.
Polymers or similar indefinite structures arrived at by defining substituents with further substituents appended ad infinitum (e.g., a substituted aryl having a substituted alkyl which is itself substituted with a substituted aryl group, which is further substituted by a substituted heteroalkyl group, etc.) are not intended for inclusion herein. Unless otherwise noted, the maximum number of serial substitutions in compounds described herein is three. For example, serial substitutions of substituted aryl groups with two other substituted aryl groups are limited to ((substituted aryl)substituted aryl) substituted aryl. Similarly, the above definitions are not intended to include impermissible substitution patterns (e.g., methyl substituted with 5 fluorines or heteroaryl groups having two adjacent oxygen ring atoms). Such impermissible substitution patterns are well known to the skilled artisan. When used to modify a chemical group, the term “substituted” may describe other chemical groups defined herein.
In certain embodiments, as used herein, the phrase “one or more” refers to one to five. In certain embodiments, as used herein, the phrase “one or more” refers to one to four. In certain embodiments, as used herein, the phrase “one or more” refers to one to three.
Any compound or structure given herein, is intended to represent unlabeled forms as well as isotopically labeled forms (isotopologues) of the compounds. These forms of compounds may also be referred to as and include “isotopically enriched analogs.” Isotopically labeled compounds have structures depicted herein, except that one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having a selected atomic mass or mass number. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into the disclosed compounds include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, fluorine, chlorine and iodine such as 2H, 3H, 11C, 13C, 14C, 13N, 15N, 15O, 17O, 18O, 31P, 32P, 35S, 18F, 36Cl, 123I, and 125I, respectively. Various isotopically labeled compounds of the present disclosure, for example those into which radioactive isotopes such as 3H, 13C and 14C are incorporated. Such isotopically labelled compounds may be useful in metabolic studies, reaction kinetic studies, detection or imaging techniques, such as positron emission tomography (PET) or single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) including drug or substrate tissue distribution assays or in radioactive treatment of patients.
The term “isotopically enriched analogs” includes “deuterated analogs” of compounds described herein in which one or more hydrogens is/are replaced by deuterium, such as a hydrogen on a carbon atom. Such compounds exhibit increased resistance to metabolism and are thus useful for increasing the half-life of any compound when administered to a mammal, particularly a human. See, for example, Foster, “Deuterium Isotope Effects in Studies of Drug Metabolism,” Trends Pharmacol. Sci. 5(12):524-527 (1984). Such compounds are synthesized by means well known in the art, for example by employing starting materials in which one or more hydrogens have been replaced by deuterium.
Deuterium labelled or substituted therapeutic compounds of the disclosure may have improved DMPK (drug metabolism and pharmacokinetics) properties, relating to distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME). Substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, for example increased in vivo half-life, reduced dosage requirements and/or an improvement in therapeutic index. An 18F, 3H, 11C labeled compound may be useful for PET or SPECT or other imaging studies. Isotopically labeled compounds of this disclosure and prodrugs thereof can generally be prepared by carrying out the procedures disclosed in the schemes or in the examples and preparations described below by substituting a readily available isotopically labeled reagent for a non-isotopically labeled reagent. It is understood that deuterium in this context is regarded as a substituent in a compound described herein.
The concentration of such a heavier isotope, specifically deuterium, may be defined by an isotopic enrichment factor. In the compounds of this disclosure any atom not specifically designated as a particular isotope is meant to represent any stable isotope of that atom. Unless otherwise stated, when a position is designated specifically as “H” or “hydrogen”, the position is understood to have hydrogen at its natural abundance isotopic composition. Accordingly, in the compounds of this disclosure any atom specifically designated as a deuterium (D) is meant to represent deuterium. Further, in some embodiments, the corresponding deuterated analog is provided.
In many cases, the compounds of this disclosure are capable of forming acid and/or base salts by virtue of the presence of amino and/or carboxyl groups or groups similar thereto.
Provided also are a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, isotopically enriched analog, deuterated analog, isomer (such as a stereoisomer), mixture of isomers (such as a mixture of stereoisomers), prodrug, and metabolite of the compounds described herein.
“Pharmaceutically acceptable” or “physiologically acceptable” refer to compounds, salts, compositions, dosage forms and other materials which are useful in preparing a pharmaceutical composition that is suitable for veterinary or human pharmaceutical use.
The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” of a given compound refers to salts that retain the biological effectiveness and properties of the given compound and which are not biologically or otherwise undesirable. “Pharmaceutically acceptable salts” or “physiologically acceptable salts” include, for example, salts with inorganic acids and salts with an organic acid. In addition, if the compounds described herein are obtained as an acid addition salt, the free base can be obtained by basifying a solution of the acid salt. Conversely, if the product is a free base, an addition salt, particularly a pharmaceutically acceptable addition salt, may be produced by dissolving the free base in a suitable organic solvent and treating the solution with an acid, in accordance with conventional procedures for preparing acid addition salts from base compounds. Those skilled in the art will recognize various synthetic methodologies that may be used to prepare nontoxic pharmaceutically acceptable addition salts. Pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts may be prepared from inorganic and organic acids. Salts derived from inorganic acids include, e.g., hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid and the like. Salts derived from organic acids include, e.g., acetic acid, propionic acid, gluconic acid, glycolic acid, pyruvic acid, oxalic acid, malic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, mandelic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, p-toluene-sulfonic acid, salicylic acid and the like. Likewise, pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salts can be prepared from inorganic and organic bases. Salts derived from inorganic bases include, by way of example only, sodium, potassium, lithium, aluminum, ammonium, calcium and magnesium salts. Salts derived from organic bases include, but are not limited to, salts of primary, secondary and tertiary amines, such as alkyl amines (i.e., NH2(alkyl)), dialkyl amines (i.e., HN(alkyl)2), trialkyl amines (i.e., N(alkyl)3), substituted alkyl amines (i.e., NH2(substituted alkyl)), di(substituted alkyl) amines (i.e., HN(substituted alkyl)2), tri(substituted alkyl) amines (i.e., N(substituted alkyl)3), alkenyl amines (i.e., NH2(alkenyl)), dialkenyl amines (i.e., HN(alkenyl)2), trialkenyl amines (i.e., N(alkenyl)3), substituted alkenyl amines (i.e., NH2(substituted alkenyl)), di(substituted alkenyl) amines (i.e., HN(substituted alkenyl)2), tri(substituted alkenyl) amines (i.e., N(substituted alkenyl)3, mono-, di- or tri-cycloalkyl amines (i.e., NH2(cycloalkyl), HN(cycloalkyl)2, N(cycloalkyl)3), mono-, di- or tri-arylamines (i.e., NH2(aryl), HN(aryl)2, N(aryl)3) or mixed amines, etc. Specific examples of suitable amines include, by way of example only, isopropylamine, trimethyl amine, diethyl amine, tri(iso-propyl) amine, tri(n-propyl) amine, ethanolamine, 2-dimethylaminoethanol, piperazine, piperidine, morpholine, N-ethylpiperidine and the like.
The term “hydrate” refers to the complex formed by the combining of a compound described herein and water.

Some of the compounds exist as tautomers. Tautomers are in equilibrium with one another. For example, amide containing compounds may exist in equilibrium with imidic acid tautomers. Regardless of which tautomer is shown and regardless of the nature of the equilibrium among tautomers, the compounds are understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to comprise both amide and imidic acid tautomers. Thus, the amide containing compounds are understood to include their imidic acid tautomers. Likewise, the imidic acid containing compounds are understood to include their amide tautomers.
The compounds of the present disclosure, or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts include an asymmetric center and may thus give rise to enantiomers, diastereomers, and other stereoisomeric forms that may be defined, in terms of absolute stereochemistry, as (R)- or (S)- or, as (D)- or (L)- for amino acids. The present disclosure is meant to include all such possible isomers, as well as their racemic and optically pure forms. Optically active (+) and (−), (R)- and (S)—, or (D)- and (L)-isomers may be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or resolved using conventional techniques, for example, chromatography and fractional crystallization. Conventional techniques for the preparation/isolation of individual enantiomers include chiral synthesis from a suitable optically pure precursor or resolution of the racemate (or the racemate of a salt or derivative) using, for example, chiral high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). When the compounds described herein contain olefinic double bonds or other centres of geometric asymmetry, and unless specified otherwise, it is intended that the compounds include both E and Z geometric isomers.
A “stereoisomer” refers to a compound made up of the same atoms bonded by the same bonds but having different three-dimensional structures, which are not interchangeable. The present disclosure contemplates various stereoisomers and mixtures thereof and includes “enantiomers,” which refers to two stereoisomers whose molecules are nonsuperimposeable mirror images of one another.
“Diastereomers” are stereoisomers that have at least two asymmetric atoms, but which are not mirror-images of each other.
Relative centers of the compounds as depicted herein are indicated graphically using the “thick bond” style (bold or parallel lines) and absolute stereochemistry is depicted using wedge bonds (bold or parallel lines).
“Prodrugs” means any compound which releases an active parent drug according to a structure described herein in vivo when such prodrug is administered to a mammalian subject. Prodrugs of a compound described herein are prepared by modifying functional groups present in the compound described herein in such a way that the modifications may be cleaved in vivo to release the parent compound. Prodrugs may be prepared by modifying functional groups present in the compounds in such a way that the modifications are cleaved, either in routine manipulation or in vivo, to the parent compounds. Prodrugs include compounds described herein wherein a hydroxy, amino, carboxyl, or sulfhydryl group in a compound described herein is bonded to any group that may be cleaved in vivo to regenerate the free hydroxy, amino, or sulfhydryl group, respectively. Examples of prodrugs include, but are not limited to esters (e.g., acetate, formate and benzoate derivatives), amides, guanidines, carbamates (e.g., N,N-dimethylaminocarbonyl) of hydroxy functional groups in compounds described herein and the like. Preparation, selection and use of prodrugs is discussed in T. Higuchi and V. Stella, “Pro-drugs as Novel Delivery Systems,” Vol. 14 of the A.C.S. Symposium Series; “Design of Prodrugs,” ed. H. Bundgaard, Elsevier, 1985; and in Bioreversible Carriers in Drug Design, ed. Edward B. Roche, American Pharmaceutical Association and Pergamon Press, 1987, each of which are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.

As used herein, the term “activator” refers to a compound of Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof that increases the activity of pyruvate kinase R (PKR) or pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2), unless specified otherwise. By “activate” herein is meant to increase the activity of PKR or PKM2 activity to a level that is greater than the basal levels of activity for PKR or PKM2 in the presence of the compound. In some embodiments, the term “activate” means an increase in the activity of PKR or PKM2 of at least about 5%, at least about 10%, at least about 20%, at least about 25%, at least about 50%, at least about 60%, at least about 70%, at least about 80%, at least about 90%, or at least about 95%. In other embodiments, activate means an increase in PKR or PKM2 activity of about 5% to about 25%, about 25% to about 50%, about 50% to about 75%, or about 75% to 100%. In some embodiments, activate means an increase in PKR or PKM2 activity of about 95% to 100%, e.g., an increase in activity of 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, or 100%. Such increases can be measured using a variety of techniques that would be recognizable by one of skill in the art, including in vitro assays.
As used herein, the term “pyruvate kinase activator” and the like refers to a compound that activates, increases, or modulates one or more of the biological activities of pyruvate kinase.

The subject matter described herein includes the following compounds in Table 1, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof:
a Unless made from an optically pure commercial starting material, absolute stereochemistry was not determined for each individual enantiomer or diastereomer.
Compounds provided herein are usually administered in the form of pharmaceutical compositions. Thus, provided herein are also pharmaceutical compositions that comprise one or more of the compounds described herein or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, a stereoisomer, or a mixture of stereoisomers thereof and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable vehicles selected from carriers, adjuvants and excipients. Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable vehicles may include, for example, inert solid diluents and fillers, diluents, including sterile aqueous solution and various organic solvents, permeation enhancers, solubilizers and adjuvants. Such compositions are prepared in a manner well known in the pharmaceutical art. See, e.g., Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mace Publishing Co., Philadelphia, Pa. 17th Ed. (1985); and Modern Pharmaceutics, Marcel Dekker, Inc. 3rd Ed. (G. S. Banker & C. T. Rhodes, Eds.).
The pharmaceutical compositions may be administered in either single or multiple doses. The pharmaceutical composition may be administered by various methods including, for example, rectal, buccal, intranasal and transdermal routes. In certain embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition may be administered by intra-arterial injection, intravenously, intraperitoneally, parenterally, intramuscularly, subcutaneously, orally, topically, or as an inhalant.
One mode for administration is parenteral, for example, by injection. The forms in which the pharmaceutical compositions described herein may be incorporated for administration by injection include, for example, aqueous or oil suspensions, or emulsions, with sesame oil, corn oil, cottonseed oil, or peanut oil, as well as elixirs, mannitol, dextrose, or a sterile aqueous solution, and similar pharmaceutical vehicles.
Oral administration may be another route for administration of the compounds described herein. Administration may be via, for example, capsule or enteric coated tablets. In making the pharmaceutical compositions that include at least one compound described herein or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, a stereoisomer, or a mixture of stereoisomers thereof, the active ingredient is usually diluted by an excipient and/or enclosed within such a carrier that can be in the form of a capsule, sachet, paper or other container. When the excipient serves as a diluent, it can be in the form of a solid, semi-solid, or liquid material, which acts as a vehicle, carrier or medium for the active ingredient. Thus, the compositions can be in the form of tablets, pills, powders, lozenges, sachets, cachets, elixirs, suspensions, emulsions, solutions, syrups, aerosols (as a solid or in a liquid medium), ointments containing, for example, up to 10% by weight of the active compound, soft and hard gelatin capsules, sterile injectable solutions, and sterile packaged powders.
Some examples of suitable excipients include lactose, dextrose, sucrose, sorbitol, mannitol, starches, gum acacia, calcium phosphate, alginates, tragacanth, gelatin, calcium silicate, microcrystalline cellulose, polyvinylpyrrolidone, cellulose, sterile water, syrup, and methyl cellulose. The formulations can additionally include lubricating agents such as talc, magnesium stearate, and mineral oil; wetting agents; emulsifying and suspending agents; preserving agents such as methyl and propylhydroxy-benzoates; sweetening agents; and flavoring agents.
The compositions that include at least one compound described herein or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, a stereoisomer, or a mixture of stereoisomers thereof can be formulated so as to provide quick, sustained or delayed release of the active ingredient after administration to the subject by employing procedures known in the art. Controlled release drug delivery systems for oral administration include osmotic pump systems and dissolutional systems containing polymer-coated reservoirs or drug-polymer matrix formulations. Examples of controlled release systems are given in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,845,770; 4,326,525; 4,902,514; and 5,616,345. Another formulation for use in the methods disclosed herein employ transdermal delivery devices (“patches”). Such transdermal patches may be used to provide continuous or discontinuous infusion of the compounds described herein in controlled amounts. The construction and use of transdermal patches for the delivery of pharmaceutical agents is well known in the art. See, e.g., U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,023,252, 4,992,445 and 5,001,139. Such patches may be constructed for continuous, pulsatile, or on demand delivery of pharmaceutical agents.
For preparing solid compositions such as tablets, the principal active ingredient may be mixed with a pharmaceutical excipient to form a solid preformulation composition containing a homogeneous mixture of a compound described herein or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, a stereoisomer, or a mixture of stereoisomers thereof. When referring to these preformulation compositions as homogeneous, the active ingredient may be dispersed evenly throughout the composition so that the composition may be readily subdivided into equally effective unit dosage forms such as tablets, pills and capsules.
The tablets or pills of the compounds described herein may be coated or otherwise compounded to provide a dosage form affording the advantage of prolonged action, or to protect from the acid conditions of the stomach. For example, the tablet or pill can include an inner dosage and an outer dosage component, the latter being in the form of an envelope over the former. The two components can be separated by an enteric layer that serves to resist disintegration in the stomach and permit the inner component to pass intact into the duodenum or to be delayed in release. A variety of materials can be used for such enteric layers or coatings, such materials including a number of polymeric acids and mixtures of polymeric acids with such materials as shellac, cetyl alcohol, and cellulose acetate.
Compositions for inhalation or insufflation may include solutions and suspensions in pharmaceutically acceptable, aqueous or organic solvents, or mixtures thereof, and powders.

Several intermediates used in the synthetic preparations of the compounds described herein are provided below:
A mixture of dimethoxy-N,N-dimethylmethanamine (38.13 mL; 0.29 mol; 2.00 eq.) and tert-butyl N-(carbamoylmethyl)carbamate (25.00 g; 0.14 mol; 1.00 eq.) in tetrahydrofuran (500.00 mL) was stirred under reflux for 4 h. It was then allowed to stir at ambient temperature overnight. Most of the solvent was evaporated, and hexane was added to the residue while stirring. The resulting mixture was cooled to 0° C. and the white precipitate formed was collected by gravity filtration and then air-dried. This crude material (32 g, 97.3% yield), was directly used in the next step without further purification. 1-H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.38 (s, 1H), 6.72 (t, J=6.2 Hz, 1H), 3.63 (d, J=6.1 Hz, 2H), 3.10 (d, J=1.8 Hz, 3H), 2.96 (d, J=1.7 Hz, 3H), 1.36 (s, 9H).
To a suspension of 3-quinolinamine (3 000.00 mg; 20.81 mmol; 1.00 eq.) in concentrated HCl (5 V; 15 mL) at 0° C. was added an aqueous solution (2.5 mL; 8 M) of sodium nitrite (1 435.67 mg; 20.81 mmol; 1.00 eq.) drop-wise. After 1 h, tin(II)chloride dihydrate (9 390.64 mg; 41.62 mmol; 2.00 eq.) as a solution in 0.6 V (6 mL) of concentrated HCl was added and the resulting mixture was stirred while warming to ambient temperature. After 2.5 h, the mixture was filtered and the filter cake was washed with EtOH and Et2O (once each), and air-dried to provide 2-(quinolin-3-yl)hydrazinium chloride (3.78 g; 92%) as a tan solid. This crude material was directly used in the next step without further purification. 1-H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 11.26 (br. s, 3H), 9.22 (br. s, 1H), 8.85 (d, J=2.6 Hz, 1H), 8.07 (dd, J=8.3, 1.5 Hz, 1H), 8.03-7.97 (m, 1H), 7.94 (dd, J=7.7, 1.9 Hz, 1H), 7.69 (dqd, J=8.3, 6.9, 1.5 Hz, 2H). LCMS (ES) [M+1]+ m/z 160.
A mixture of (tert-butyl (E)-(2-(((dimethylamino)methylene)amino)-2-oxoethyl)carbamate) (10.00 g; 43.62 mmol; 1.00 eq.) and (4-chloro-3-fluorophenyl)hydrazine (7 704.00 mg; 47.98 mmol; 1.10 eq.) in acetic acid (300.00 mL; 30.00 V) was stirred at 80° C. for 50 min. The reaction mixture was then cooled to ambient temperature and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was poured into saturated NaHCO3. Water and EtOAc were added, and the mixture was extracted twice with EtOAc. The combined organic layers were concentrated and the residue was purified on a silica gel column eluting with a gradient of 0-35% EtOAc in heptanes to provide tert-butyl N-{[1-(4-chloro-3-fluorophenyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl]methyl}carbamate as a light brown syrup, which solidified upon drying. 1-H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.09 (s, 1H), 7.87-7.69 (m, 2H), 7.41 (dd, J=38.3, 7.3 Hz, 2H), 4.38 (d, J=5.7 Hz, 2H), 1.29 (s, 9H). LCMS (ES) [M+1]+ m/z: 327
Trifluoroacetic acid (40.43 mL; 527.92 mmol; 15.00 eq.) was added drop-wise to a solution of tert-butyl N-{[1-(4-chloro-3-fluorophenyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl]methyl}carbamate (11.50 g; 35.19 mmol; 1.00 eq.) in dichloromethane (230.00 mL). The mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 3 h. The solvent was then removed under vacuum and the residue was treated with saturated NaHCO3 and extracted 3 times with a mixture of CHCl3: isopropanol (3:1). The combined organics were dried over MgSO4 and concentrated. The residue was purified on a silica gel column eluting with a gradient of 0-50% of a (DCM:MeOH:NH4OH; 90:9:1) in DCM. The product thus isolated was a TFA salt (I-4a).
Alternatively, HCl (4.0 N in dioxane) can be used in place of trifluoroacetic acid, resulting in the corresponding chloride salt (I-4b). Both these materials (I-4a and I-4b) can be directly used in subsequent steps (i.e. General Procedure 7) without further purification.
This material (I-4a) was dissolved in a 3:1 mixture of CHCl3: isopropanol and treated with a saturated solution of NaHCO3. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over MgSO4, filtered, and concentrated to provide 1-[1-(4-chloro-3-fluorophenyl)-1H-1,2,4-triazol-5-yl]methanamine as the free amine I-4c. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6) δ 8.10 (d, J=1.5 Hz, 1H), 7.90 (dt, J=10.2, 1.9 Hz, 1H), 7.79 (td, J=8.4, 1.5 Hz, 1H), 7.58 (ddd, J=8.6, 2.4, 1.2 Hz, 1H), 3.88 (s, 2H), 1.98 (s, 2H).

Then (OTf)2O (4.72 g, 16.72 mmol, 1.10 equiv) was added at −40° C. under N2. The resulting mixture was slowly warmed to ambient temperature and stirred for 20 h at 80° C. The resulting mixture was then filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by a silica gel column eluted with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (⅛). This resulted in 1.2 g (36%) of 5-(chloromethyl)-1-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)-1H-tetrazole as a yellow solid. LCMS (ES) [M+1]+ m/z: 223.

The solution was then concentrated under vacuum and the residue was purified by a silica gel column eluted with methanol/DCM (1/15). This resulted in 400 mg (87.5%) of 1-[1-(3,4-dimethylphenyl)-1H-1,2,3,4-tetrazol-5-yl]methanamine as a white solid. LCMS (ES) [M+1]+ m/z: 204.

Chloroacetyl chloride (62.93 g, 0.557 mol, 1.5 eq.) was then added dropwise at 0° C. over 40 min and the resulting mixture was stirred at 25° C. for 1 hr. Dioxane (1.5 L) was then added into the mixture and the resulting mixture was reacted at 100° C. with a Dean-Stark trap to remove the DCM for 2 hr. The reaction mixture was then cooled and quenched by the addition of water/ice. The resulting solution was extracted with 3×800 mL of dichloromethane and the organic layers were combined, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under vacuum. The residue was purified by silica gel column eluted with 100% petroleum ether to 15% ethyl acetate in petroleum ether providing 37.00 g (38.33%) of 1-(4-chloro-3-fluorophenyl)-5-(chloromethyl)-3-methyl-1,2,4-triazole as off-white oil.

Protein Production and Purification
Human pyruvate kinase R (PKR), residues 14-574, and human pyruvate kinase M2, residues 1-531, were cloned into expression plasmids and obtained from ATUM Bio (Newark, Calif.). Proteins were translated as fusions with 6×-His, 8×-Arg, and SUMO at the N-terminus. A third construct of human PKR was truncated, residues 50-574, and similarly cloned for use in crystallography experiments. All proteins were cloned, expressed in E. coli, and purified using similar protocols. Cells were grown at 30° C. in Luria-Bertani broth supplemented with 0.4% glucose to OD600=0.8 and induced with 0.4 mM IPTG at 16° C. for 18 hours. Cells were harvested by centrifugation, resuspended in 50 mM potassium phosphate pH 8.0, 500 mM NaCl, 25 mM imidazole pH 8.0, and 3 mM (3-mercaptoethanol. Cells were lysed using a LM20 microfluidizer from Microfluidics (Westwood, Mass.). The crude lysate was immediately supplemented with 0.2 mM phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride (PMSF) and centrifuged at 20,000 g for 20 minutes. The soluble fraction was subsequently incubated with 2 mL Ni-NTA (GE Healthcare) per 1,000 ODs for 1 hour at 4° C. Following incubation with the Ni-NTA resin, lysate was removed by pelleting resin at 2,500 g for 3 minutes and washed 3 times with 9 bed volumes of 50 mM potassium phosphate pH 8.0, 500 mM NaCl, 25 mM imidazole, and 3 mM 3-mercaptoethanol. Following the batch wash Ni-NTA resin was loaded onto a gravity column and His-tagged protein was eluted with 6 bed volumes of 10 mM Tris/HCl pH 8.0, 200 mM NaCl, 500 mM imidazole, and 3 mM (3-mercaptoethanol. Eluted protein was dialyzed overnight against 10 mM Tris/HCl pH 8.0, 200 mM NaCl, and 1 mM DTT and the 6×-His-8×-Arg-SUMO-tag was cleaved using a 20:1 molar ratio of protein:3C protease. The protein was purified by anion exchange chromatography on a HiTrapQ or MonoQ 10/100 GL column (GE Healthcare) via a linear NaCl gradient and twice by size exclusion chromatography using a Superdex S200 26/60 column (GE Healthcare) run in 10 mM Tris/HCl pH 8.0, 200 mM NaCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM DTT. Proteins were concentrated to −12 mg/mL for crystallization and flash frozen for storage.

Treated plates were incubated overnight at 37° C. with 5% CO2. Compounds were diluted in complete media and added to cells in the presence of 1% DMSO. Cells were incubated with compound for 90 minutes at 37° C. and 5% CO2 before washing three times with PBS to remove residual compound and then lysed in lysis buffer (Cell Signaling). Cell lysate was analyzed using the NADH coupled assay described below with a reaction mixture of 180 uM NADH, 2 mM ADP, 0.5 units of LDH and 0.5 mM of PEP. PKM2 activity was measured at steady state using a coupled enzyme activation system based on NADH consumption. PKM2 produces pyruvate and the coupled system uses lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) to reduce pyruvate to lactate with the concomitant oxidation of NADH to NAD+. Conversion of NADH to NAD+ was monitored using a SPECTROstar Nano plate reader (BMG Labtech) at a wavelength of 340 nm and subtraction of background absorbance measured at 750 nm. The change in NADH absorbance after PEP addition was monitored and slope obtained by subtracting baseline at 750 nm followed by least squares fitting to a simple linear regression model. A 10-point curve was generated to calculate the AC50 values by fitting the rates of NADH consumption against increasing concentration of compound.
Efforts have been made to ensure accuracy with respect to numbers used (e.g., amounts, temperature, etc.) but some experimental errors and deviations should be accounted for.
