Description
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0588] It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive of the invention claimed. As used herein, the use of the singular includes the plural unless specifically stated otherwise.
[0589] It will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art that some of the compounds of the invention may contain one or more asymmetric centers, such that the compounds may exist in enantiomeric as well as in diastereomeric forms. Unless it is specifically noted otherwise, the scope of the present invention includes all enantiomers, diastereomers and racemic mixtures. Some of the compounds of the invention may form salts with pharmaceutically acceptable acids or bases, and such pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the compounds described herein are also within the scope of the invention.
[0590] The present invention includes all pharmaceutically acceptable isotopically enriched compounds. Any compound of the invention may contain one or more isotopic atoms enriched or different than the natural ratio such as deuterium .sup.2H (or D) in place of hydrogen .sup.1H (or H) or use of .sup.13C enriched material in place of .sup.12C and the like. Similar substitutions can be employed for N, O and S. The use of isotopes may assist in analytical as well as therapeutic aspects of the invention. For example, use of deuterium may increase the in vivo half-life by altering the metabolism (rate) of the compounds of the invention. These compounds can be prepared in accord with the preparations described by use of isotopically enriched reagents.
[0591] The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended, nor should they be construed as limiting the invention in any manner. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that variations and modifications of the following examples can be made without exceeding the spirit or scope of the invention.
[0592] As will be evident to those skilled in the art, individual isomeric forms can be obtained by separation of mixtures thereof in conventional manner. For example, in the case of diastereoisomeric isomers, chromatographic separation may be employed.
[0593] Compound names were generated with ACD version 12.5. In general, characterization of the compounds is performed according to the following methods, NMR spectra are recorded on 300 or 600 MHz Varian and acquired at room temperature. Chemical shifts are given in ppm referenced either to internal TMS or to the solvent signal.
[0594] All the reagents, solvents, catalysts for which the synthesis is not described are purchased from chemical vendors such as Sigma Aldrich, Fluka, Bio-Blocks, Combi-blocks, TCI, VWR, Lancaster, Oakwood, Trans World Chemical, Alfa, Fisher, Maybridge, Frontier, Matrix, Ukrorgsynth, Toronto, Ryan Scientific, SiliCycle, Anaspec, Syn Chem, Chem-Impex, MIC-scientific, Ltd; however some known intermediates, were prepared according to published procedures.
[0595] Usually the compounds of the invention were purified by medium pressure liquid chromatography, unless noted otherwise.
[0596] The following abbreviations are used in the examples: [0597] Et.sub.3N triethylamine [0598] CH.sub.2Cl.sub.2 dichloromethane [0599] CDCl.sub.3 deuterated chloroform [0600] MeOH methanol [0601] CD.sub.3OD deuterated methanol [0602] Na.sub.2SO.sub.4 sodium sulfate [0603] DMF N,N dimethylformamide [0604] EDCI 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide [0605] HOBt Hydroxybenzotriazole [0606] THF tetrahydrofuran [0607] ClCO.sub.2Et ethylchloroformate [0608] NH.sub.3 ammonia
