Description

EXAMPLES

[0445] Various methods may be developed for synthesizing a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. Representative methods for synthesizing a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are provided in the Examples. It is noted, however, that a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof may also be synthesized by other synthetic routes that others may devise.

[0446] It will be readily recognized that certain compounds of formula (I) have atoms with linkages to other atoms that confer a particular stereochemistry to the compound (e.g., chiral centers). It is recognized that synthesis of a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof may result in the creation of mixtures of different stereoisomers (enantiomers, diastereomers). Unless a particular stereochemistry is specified, recitation of a compound is intended to encompass all of the different possible stereoisomers.

[0447] A compound of formula (I) can also be prepared as a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt by, for example, reacting the free base form of the at least one compound with a pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic or organic acid. Alternatively, a pharmaceutically acceptable base addition salt of the at least one compound of formula (I) can be prepared by, for example, reacting the free acid form of the at least one compound with a pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic or organic base. Inorganic and organic acids and bases suitable for the preparation of the pharmaceutically acceptable salts of compounds of formula (I) are set forth in the definitions section of this Application. Alternatively, the salt forms of the compounds of formula (I) can be prepared using salts of the starting materials or intermediates.

[0448] The free acid or free base forms of the compounds of formula (I) can be prepared from the corresponding base addition salt or acid addition salt form. For example, a compound of formula (I) in an acid addition salt form can be converted to the corresponding free base thereof by treating with a suitable base (e.g., ammonium hydroxide solution, sodium hydroxide, and the like). A compound of formula (I) in a base addition salt form can be converted to the corresponding free acid thereof by, for example, treating with a suitable acid (e.g., hydrochloric acid, etc).

[0449] The N-oxides of a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof can be prepared by methods known to those of ordinary skill in the art. For example, N-oxides can be prepared by treating an unoxidized form of the compound of formula (I) with an oxidizing agent (e.g., trifluoroperacetic acid, permaleic acid, perbenzoic acid, peracetic acid, meta-chloroperoxybenzoic acid, or the like) in a suitable inert organic solvent (e.g., a halogenated hydrocarbon such as dichloromethane) at approximately 0 to 80° C. Alternatively, the N-oxides of the compounds of formula (I) can be prepared from the N-oxide of an appropriate starting material.

[0450] Compounds of formula (I) in an unoxidized form can be prepared from N-oxides of compounds of formula (I) by, for example, treating with a reducing agent (e.g., sulfur, sulfur dioxide, triphenyl phosphine, lithium borohydride, sodium borohydride, phosphorus trichloride, tribromide, and the like) in an suitable inert organic solvent (e.g., acetonitrile, ethanol, aqueous dioxane, and the like) at 0 to 80° C.

[0451] Protected derivatives of the compounds of formula (I) can be made by methods known to those of ordinary skill in the art. A detailed description of the techniques applicable to the creation of protecting groups and their removal can be found in T. W. Greene, Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis, 3rd edition, John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 1999.

Synthetic Schemes

[0456] A compound of formula I or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof may be synthesized according to a variety of reaction schemes. Some illustrative schemes are provided below and in the examples. Other reaction schemes could be readily devised by those skilled in the art in view of the present disclosure.

[0457] In the reactions described hereinafter it may be necessary to protect reactive functional groups, for example hydroxy, amino, imino, thio or carboxy groups, where these are desired in the final product, to avoid their unwanted participation in the reactions. Conventional protecting groups may be used in accordance with standard practice, for examples see T. W. Greene and P. G. M. Wuts in “Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry” John Wiley and Sons, 1991.

[0458] Synthetic methods for preparing the compounds of the present disclosure are illustrated in the following Schemes and Examples. Starting materials are commercially available or may be made according to procedures known in the art or as illustrated herein.

[0459] The intermediates shown in the following schemes are either known in the literature or may be prepared by a variety of methods familiar to those skilled in the art.

[0460] As shown in the Scheme 1, the compounds of formula I can be synthesized from bromide II and potassium trifluoroborate salt III, which are either known in the literature or may be prepared by a variety of methods familiar to those skilled in the art. Coupling of brominated II with potassium trifluoroborate salt III via a suzuki reaction leads to compounds of formula I.

##STR00089##

[0461] As an illustration of the preparation of intermediates of formula II, a preparation of compound IIa is illustrated in Scheme 2. Starting from aldehyde IIa-A and substituted aromatic amines IIa-B, which are either commercially available or known in the literature, the intermediate IIa-C was prepared by treating of IIa-A with IIa-B in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid. IIa-C was treated with t-BuONa in a solvent such as THF to give intramolecular cyclization product IIa-D. The amino group of IIa-D can be converted into an iodine group via a sandmeyer reaction with reagents such as CH.sub.2I.sub.2 and tert-butyl nitrite to give IIa-E. The iodinate IIa-E can be transformed into ester IIa-F by carbonylation with CO(gas). Heating of IIa-F with N.sub.2H.sub.4.H.sub.2O leads to intermediate IIa.

##STR00090##

[0462] As a further illustration of the preparation of intermediates of formula II, a preparation of compound IIb is illustrated in Scheme 3. The reaction of the diazonium salt derived from aromatic amines IIb-B with aldehyde IIa-A in the presence of a base such as NaOAc in a solvent such as EtOH provides phenylhydrazone IIb-C. The 4-aminopyrazole IIb-D can be readily prepared from phenylhydrazone IIb-C through a sequence of alkylation of phenylhydrazone with bromoaectonitrile and intramolecular cyclization effected by a base such as t-BuONa. The compound IIb can be prepared from amine IIb-D in the same way as IIa from amine IIa-D shown in the scheme 2.

##STR00091##

[0463] A preparation of compound IIc is illustrated in Scheme 4 as a further illustration of the preparation of intermediates of formula II. Starting from the commercially available aliphatic amine IIc-A, Boc-hydrazine IIc-C can be prepared by treatment with IIc-B in the presence of inorganic bases such as NaHCO.sub.3 (sat.). Deprotection of the Boc group in IIc-C with TFA/DCM gives IIc-D which is reacted with IIc-E in the presence of organic bases such as TEA to provide amino-pyrazole IIc-F. IIc-F can be converted into IIc through the sequence shown in Scheme 2.

##STR00092##

[0464] In some cases the order of carrying out the foregoing reaction schemes may be varied to facilitate the reaction or to avoid unwanted reaction products. The following examples are provided so that the invention might be more fully understood. These examples are illustrative only and should not be construed as limiting the invention in any way.

Kinase Assay

[0535] The kinase activity of BTK (C481S) was assayed at Reaction Biology Corporation. The substrate in the BTK (C481S) reaction, pEY (poly[Glu:Tyr] (4:1)) (Sigma, Cat. #P7244-250MG), was prepared in fresh reaction buffer (20 mM Hepes (pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl.sub.2, 1 mM EGTA, 0.02% Brij35, 0.02 mg/mi BSA, 0.1 mM Na.sub.3VO.sub.4, 2 mM DTT, 1% DMSO). BTK(C481S) (SignalChem, Cat. #B10-12CH) was delivered into the substrate solution and mixed gently. The final concentrations of BTK (C481S) and the substrate in the reaction mixture were 6 nM and 0.2 mg/ml, respectively. Compounds were tested in 10-point concentration/response mode with 3-fold serial dilution steps starting at 1 μM.

[0536] Compounds in 100% DMSO were delivered into the kinase reaction mixture by acoustic liquid delivery technology (Echo550; nanoliter range) and incubated for 20 min at room temperature. 10 μM [.sup.33P]-ATP (ATP: Sigma, Cat #: A7699; [.sup.33P]-ATP: Hartmann Analytic, Cat #: SCF-301-12) was delivered into the reaction mixture to initiate the reaction. The mixture was incubated for 120 min at room temperature. Radioactivity was detected utilizing a proprietary filter-binding method. Kinase activity data were expressed as the percent remaining kinase activity in test samples compared to vehicle (DMSO) reactions. IC.sub.50 values were obtained using GraphPad Prism software.

[0537] Select compounds prepared as described above were assayed according to the biological procedures described herein. The results are given in the table 2.

Cell Proliferation Assays

[0538] MTS testing kit was purchased from Promega (Madison, Wis., USA). The RPMI-1640, Fetal bovine serum and Penicillin-Streptomycin were purchased from BI (Biological Industries, Beit Haemek, Israel). Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) was purchased from Sigma (St. Louis., Mo., USA). OCI-LY10 cells were cultured in RPMI1640 supplemented with Penicillin-Streptomycin and 10% FBS.

[0539] To investigate whether a compound is able to inhibit the activity of BTK in cells, a mechanism-based assay using OCI-LY10 cells was developed. In this assay, inhibition of BTK was detected by the inhibition of OCI-LY10 cells proliferation. Cells were plated into 96-well plates at a density of 10000 cells/well. Plates were incubated at 37° C., with 5% CO.sub.2 for 4 h. Compounds were serially diluted and added to the plates with the final compound concentrations as 10000, 3333.3, 1111.1, 270.4, 123.5, 41.2, 13.7, 4.6 and 1.5 nM. Plates were incubated at 37° C., with 5% CO.sub.2 for 72 h. 20 μl MTS was added into each well and the plates were incubated at 37° C., with 5% CO.sub.2 for exactly 2 h. The absorbance was measured by a microplate reader at 490 nm. IC.sub.50 was calculated using GraphPad Prism 5.0 software.

[0540] Select compounds prepared as described above were assayed according to the biological procedures described herein. The results are given in the table 3.
