## Title
Piperazine derivatives as HIV protease inhibitors

## Abstract

The present invention is directed to piperazine derivatives, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same, and their use in the inhibition of HIV protease, the inhibition of HIV replication, the prophylaxis of infection by HIV, the treatment of infection by HIV, and the prophylaxis, treatment, and delay in the onset or progression of AIDS.

## Background
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
A retrovirus designated human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), particularly the strains known as HIV type-1 (HIV-1) virus and type-2 (HIV-2) virus, is the etiological agent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), a disease characterized by the destruction of the immune system, particularly of CD4 T-cells, with attendant susceptibility to opportunistic infections, and its precursor AIDS-related complex (“ARC”), a syndrome characterized by symptoms such as persistent generalized lymphadenopathy, fever and weight loss. This virus was previously known as LAV, HTLV-III, or ARV. A common feature of retrovirus replication is the extensive post-translational processing of precursor polyproteins by a virally encoded protease to generate mature viral proteins required for virus assembly and function. Inhibition of this processing prevents the production of normally infectious virus. For example, Kohl et al., Proc. Nat'l Acad. Sci. 1988, 85: 4686, demonstrated that genetic inactivation of the HIV encoded protease resulted in the production of immature, non-infectious virus particles. These results indicated that inhibition of the HIV protease represents a viable method for the treatment of AIDS and the prevention or treatment of infection by HIV.
Nucleotide sequencing of HIV shows the presence of a pol gene in one open reading frame [Ratner et al., Nature 1985, 313: 277]. Amino acid sequence homology provides evidence that the pol sequence encodes reverse transcriptase, an endonuclease, HIV protease and gag, which encodes the core proteins of the virion (Toh et al., EMBO J. 1985, 4: 1267; Power et al., Science 1986, 231: 1567; Pearl et al., Nature 1987, 329: 351].
Several HIV protease inhibitors are presently approved for clinical use in the treatment of AIDS and HIV infection, including indinavir (see U.S. Pat. No. 5,413,999), amprenavir (U.S. Pat. No. 5,585,397), saquinavir (U.S. Pat. No. 5,196,438), ritonavir (U.S. Pat. No. 5,484,801) and nelfinavir (U.S. Pat. No. 5,484,926). Each of these protease inhibitors is a peptide-derived peptidomimetic, competitive inhibitor of the viral protease which prevents cleavage of the HIV gag-pol polyprotein precursor. Tipranavir (U.S. Pat. No. 5,852,195) is a non-peptide peptidomimetic protease inhibitors also approved for use in treating HIV infection. The protease inhibitors are administered in combination with at least one and typically at least two other HIV antiviral agents, particularly nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors such as zidovudine (AZT) and lamivudine (3TC) and/or non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors such as efavirenz and nevirapine. Indinavir, for example, has been found to be highly effective in reducing HIV viral loads and increasing CD4 cell counts in HIV-infected patients, when used in combination with nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors. See, for example, Hammer et al., New England J. Med. 1997, 337: 725-733 and Gulick et al., New England J. Med. 1997, 337: 734-739.
The established therapies employing a protease inhibitor are not suitable for use in all HIV-infected subjects. Some subjects, for example, cannot tolerate these therapies due to adverse effects. Many HIV-infected subjects often develop resistance to particular protease inhibitors. Furthermore, the currently available protease inhibitors are rapidly metabolized and cleared from the bloodstream, requiring frequent dosing and use of a boosting agent. Accordingly, there is a continuing need for new compounds which are capable of inhibiting HIV protease and suitable for use in the treatment or prophylaxis of infection by HIV and/or for the treatment or prophylaxis or delay in the onset or progression of AIDS.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is directed to piperazine derivatives, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same, and their use in the inhibition of HIV protease, the inhibition of HIV replication, the prophylaxis of infection by HIV, the treatment of infection by HIV, and the prophylaxis, treatment, and delay in the onset or progression of AIDS.

Additional embodiments of the present invention include each of the pharmaceutical compositions, combinations, methods and uses set forth in the preceding paragraphs, wherein the compound of the present invention or its salt employed therein is substantially pure. With respect to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound of Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and optionally one or more excipients, it is understood that the term “substantially pure” is in reference to a compound of Formula I or its salt per se.
As used herein, the term “alkyl” refers to a monovalent straight or branched chain, saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon radical having a number of carbon atoms in the specified range. Thus, for example, “C1-6 alkyl” (or “C1-C6 alkyl”) refers to any of the hexyl alkyl and pentyl alkyl isomers as well as n-, iso-, sec- and t-butyl, n- and iso-propyl, ethyl and methyl. As another example, “C1-4 alkyl” refers to n-, iso-, sec- and t-butyl, n- and isopropyl, ethyl and methyl. As another example, “C1-3 alkyl” refers to n-propyl, isopropyl, ethyl and methyl.
The term “alkylene” refers to any divalent linear or branched chain aliphatic hydrocarbon radical having a number of carbon atoms in the specified range. Thus, for example, “—C1-6 alkylene-” refers to any of the C1 to C6 linear or branched alkylenes, and “—C1-4 alkylene-” refers to any of the C1 to C4 linear or branched alkylenes. A class of alkylenes of interest with respect to the invention is —(CH2)1-6—, and sub-classes of particular interest include —(CH2)1-4—, —(CH2)2-4—, —(CH2)1-3—, —(CH2)2-3—, —(CH2)1-2—, and —CH2—. Another sub-class of interest is an alkylene selected from the group consisting of —CH2—, —CH(CH3)—, and —C(CH3)2—.
The term “cycloalkyl” refers to any monocyclic ring of an alkane having a number of carbon atoms in the specified range. Thus, for example, “C3-6 cycloalkyl” (or “C3-C6 cycloalkyl”) refers to cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, and cyclohexyl, and “C3-5 cycloalkyl” refers to cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, and cyclopentyl.
The term “halogen” (or “halo”) refers to fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine (alternatively referred to as fluoro, chloro, bromo, and iodo).
The term “haloalkyl” refers to an alkyl group as defined above in which one or more of the hydrogen atoms have been replaced with a halogen (i.e., F, Cl, Br and/or I). Thus, for example, “C1-6 haloalkyl” (or “C1-C6 haloalkyl”) refers to a C1 to C6 linear or branched alkyl group as defined above with one or more halogen substituents. The term “fluoroalkyl” has an analogous meaning except that the halogen substituents are restricted to fluoro. Suitable fluoroalkyls include the series (CH2)0-4CF3 (i.e., trifluoromethyl, 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl, 3,3,3-trifluoro-n-propyl, etc.). A fluoroalkyl of particular interest is CF3.
The term “C(O)” refers to carbonyl. The terms “S(O)2” and “SO2” each refer to sulfonyl. The term “S(O)” refers to sulfinyl.
The term “aryl” refers to phenyl and naphthyl. The aryl of particular interest is phenyl.
Suitable 5- and 6-membered heteroaromatic rings within the definition of HetA include, for example, pyridyl (also referred to as pyridinyl), pyrrolyl, pyrazinyl, pyrimidinyl, pyridazinyl, triazinyl, thienyl, furanyl, imidazolyl, pyrazolyl, triazolyl, oxazolyl, isooxazolyl, oxadiazolyl, oxatriazolyl, thiazolyl, isothiazolyl, and thiadiazolyl.

It is understood that the specific rings listed above are not a limitation on the rings which can be used in the present invention. These rings are merely representative.
Unless expressly stated to the contrary in a particular context, any of the various cyclic rings and ring systems described herein may be attached to the rest of the compound at any ring atom (i.e., any carbon atom or any heteroatom) provided that a stable compound results.
Unless expressly stated to the contrary, all ranges cited herein are inclusive. For example, a heteroaromatic ring described as containing from “1 to 4 heteroatoms” means the ring can contain 1, 2, 3 or 4 heteroatoms. It is also understood that any range cited herein includes within its scope all of the sub-ranges within that range. Thus, for example, a heterocyclic ring described as containing from “1 to 4 heteroatoms” is intended to include as aspects thereof, heterocyclic rings containing 2 to 4 heteroatoms, 3 or 4 heteroatoms, 1 to 3 heteroatoms, 2 or 3 heteroatoms, 1 or 2 heteroatoms, 1 heteroatom, 2 heteroatoms, 3 heteroatoms, and 4 heteroatoms. As another example, an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring described as optionally substituted with “from 1 to 4 substituents” is intended to include as aspects thereof, an aromatic or heteroaromatic ring substituted with 1 to 4 substituents, 2 to 4 substituents, 3 to 4 substituents, 4 substituents, 1 to 3 substituents, 2 to 3 substituents, 3 substituents, 1 to 2 substituents, 2 substituents, and 1 substituent.
When any variable (e.g., XA or XB) occurs more than one time in any constituent or in Formula I or in any other formula depicting and describing compounds of the present invention, its definition on each occurrence is independent of its definition at every other occurrence. Also, combinations of substituents and/or variables are permissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds.
Unless expressly stated to the contrary, substitution by a named substituent is permitted on any atom in a ring provided such ring substitution is chemically allowed and results in a stable compound. When any of W1 to W5 is CH, that hydrogen shown on the carbon atom may be replaced by XC, provided such ring substitution results in a stable compound.
The compounds of the invention contain chiral centers and, as a result of the selection of substituents and substituent patterns, can contain additional chiral centers, and thus can occur as mixtures of stereoisomers, or as individual diastereomers, or enantiomers. All isomeric forms of these compounds, whether individually or in mixtures, are within the scope of the present invention.
To the extent substituents and substituent patterns provide for the existence of tautomers (e.g., keto-enol tautomers) in the compounds of the invention, all tautomeric forms of these compounds, whether present individually or in mixtures, are within the scope of the present invention. Compounds of the present invention having a hydroxy substituent on a carbon atom of a heteroaromatic ring are understood to include compounds in which only the hydroxy is present, compounds in which only the tautomeric keto form (i.e., an oxo substitutent) is present, and compounds in which the keto and enol forms are both present.
A “stable” compound is a compound which can be prepared and isolated and whose structure and properties remain or can be caused to remain essentially unchanged for a period of time sufficient to allow use of the compound for the purposes described herein (e.g., therapeutic or prophylactic administration to a subject). The compounds of the present invention are limited to stable compounds embraced by Formula I.
The methods of the present invention involve the use of compounds of the present invention in the inhibition of HIV protease (e.g., wild type HIV-1 and/or mutant strains thereof), the prophylaxis or treatment of infection by human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and the prophylaxis, treatment or delay in the onset or progression of consequent pathological conditions such as AIDS. Prophylaxis of AIDS, treating AIDS, delaying the onset or progression of AIDS, or treating or prophylaxis of infection by HIV is defined as including, but not limited to, treatment of a wide range of states of HIV infection: AIDS, ARC (AIDS related complex), both symptomatic and asymptomatic, and actual or potential exposure to HIV. For example, the present invention can be employed to treat infection by HIV after suspected past exposure to HIV by such means as blood transfusion, exchange of body fluids, bites, accidental needle stick, or exposure to patient blood during surgery.
The compounds can be administered in the form of pharmaceutically acceptable salts. The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to a salt which possesses the effectiveness of the parent compound and which is not biologically or otherwise undesirable (e.g., is neither toxic nor otherwise deleterious to the recipient thereof). Suitable salts include acid addition salts which may, for example, be formed by mixing a solution of the compound of the present invention with a solution of a pharmaceutically acceptable acid such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, acetic acid, or benzoic acid. When compounds employed in the present invention carry an acidic moiety (e.g., —COOH or a phenolic group), suitable pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof can include alkali metal salts (e.g., sodium or potassium salts), alkaline earth metal salts (e.g., calcium or magnesium salts), and salts formed with suitable organic ligands such as quaternary ammonium salts.
The term “administration” and variants thereof (e.g., “administering” a compound) in reference to a compound of Formula I mean providing the compound to the individual in need of treatment or prophylaxis. When a compound is provided in combination with one or more other active agents (e.g., antiviral agents useful for treating or prophylaxis of HIV infection or AIDS), “administration” and its variants are each understood to include provision of the compound and other agents at the same time or at different times. When the agents of a combination are administered at the same time, they can be administered together in a single composition or they can be administered separately.
As used herein, the term “composition” is intended to encompass a product comprising the specified ingredients, as well as any product which results from combining the specified ingredients.
By “pharmaceutically acceptable” is meant that the ingredients of the pharmaceutical composition must be compatible with each other and not deleterious to the recipient thereof.
The term “subject” as used herein refers to an animal, preferably a mammal, most preferably a human, who has been the object of treatment, observation or experiment.
The term “effective amount” as used herein means that amount of active compound or pharmaceutical agent that elicits the biological or medicinal response in a tissue, system, animal or human that is being sought by a researcher, veterinarian, medical doctor or other clinician. In one embodiment, the effective amount is a “therapeutically effective amount” for the alleviation of the symptoms of the disease or condition being treated. In another embodiment, the effective amount is a “prophylactically effective amount” for reduced likelihood of the symptoms of the disease or condition being prevented. The term also includes herein the amount of active compound sufficient to inhibit HIV protease (wild type and/or mutant strains thereof) and thereby elicit the response being sought (i.e., an “inhibition effective amount”). When the active compound (i.e., active ingredient) is administered as the salt, references to the amount of active ingredient are to the free form (i.e., the non-salt form) of the compound.
In the methods of the present invention (e.g., inhibiting HIV protease, treating or prophylaxis of HIV infection or treating, prophylaxis of, or delaying the onset or progression of AIDS), the compounds of Formula I, optionally in the form of a salt, can be administered by any means that produces contact of the active agent with the agent's site of action. They can be administered by any conventional means available for use in conjunction with pharmaceuticals, either as individual therapeutic agents or in a combination of therapeutic agents. They can be administered alone, but typically are administered with a pharmaceutical carrier selected on the basis of the chosen route of administration and standard pharmaceutical practice. The compounds of the invention can, for example, be administered by one or more of the following routes: orally, parenterally (including subcutaneous injections, intravenous, intramuscular, intrasternal injection or infusion techniques), by inhalation spray, or rectally, in the form of a unit dosage of a pharmaceutical composition containing an effective amount of the compound and conventional non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, adjuvants and vehicles. Liquid preparations suitable for oral administration (e.g., suspensions, syrups, elixirs and the like) can be prepared according to techniques known in the art and can employ any of the usual media such as water, glycols, oils, alcohols and the like. Solid preparations suitable for oral administration (e.g., powders, pills, capsules and tablets) can be prepared according to techniques known in the art and can employ such solid excipients as starches, sugars, kaolin, lubricants, binders, disintegrating agents and the like. Parenteral compositions can be prepared according to techniques known in the art and typically employ sterile water as a carrier and optionally other ingredients, such as a solubility aid. Injectable solutions can be prepared according to methods known in the art wherein the carrier comprises a saline solution, a glucose solution or a solution containing a mixture of saline and glucose. Further description of methods suitable for use in preparing pharmaceutical compositions for use in the present invention and of ingredients suitable for use in said compositions is provided in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 18th edition, edited by A. R. Gennaro, Mack Publishing Co., 1990 and in Remington—The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 21st edition, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, 2005.
The compounds of Formula I can be administered orally in a dosage range of 0.001 to 1000 mg/kg of mammal (e.g., human) body weight per day in a single dose or in divided doses. One dosage range is 0.01 to 500 mg/kg body weight per day orally in a single dose or in divided doses. Another dosage range is 0.1 to 100 mg/kg body weight per day orally in single or divided doses. For oral administration, the compositions can be provided in the form of tablets or capsules containing 1.0 to 500 milligrams of the active ingredient, particularly 1, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 50, 75, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 400, and 500 milligrams of the active ingredient for the symptomatic adjustment of the dosage to the patient to be treated. The specific dose level and frequency of dosage for any particular patient may be varied and will depend upon a variety of factors including the activity of the specific compound employed, the metabolic stability and length of action of that compound, the age, body weight, general health, sex, diet, mode and time of administration, rate of excretion, drug combination, the severity of the particular condition, and the host undergoing therapy.
As noted above, the present invention is also directed to use of a compound of Formula I with one or more anti-HIV agents. An “anti-HIV agent” is any agent which is directly or indirectly effective in the inhibition of HIV reverse transcriptase, protease, or another enzyme required for HIV replication or infection, the inhibition of HIV replication, the treatment or prophylaxis of HIV infection, and/or the treatment, prophylaxis or delay in the onset or progression of AIDS. It is understood that an anti-HIV agent is effective in treating, preventing, or delaying the onset or progression of HIV infection or AIDS and/or diseases or conditions arising therefrom or associated therewith. For example, the compounds of this invention may be effectively administered, whether at periods of pre-exposure and/or post-exposure, in combination with effective amounts of one or more anti-HIV agents selected from HIV antiviral agents, immunomodulators, antiinfectives, or vaccines useful for treating HIV infection or AIDS, such as those disclosed in Table 1 of WO 01/38332 or in the Table in WO 02/30930. Suitable HIV antivirals for use in combination with the compounds of the present invention include, for example, those listed in Table A as follows:

It is understood that the scope of combinations of the compounds of this invention with anti-HIV agents is not limited to the HIV antivirals listed in Table A and/or listed in the above-referenced Tables in WO 01/38332 and WO 02/30930, but includes in principle any combination with any pharmaceutical composition useful for the treatment or prophylaxis of AIDS. The HIV antiviral agents and other agents will typically be employed in these combinations in their conventional dosage ranges and regimens as reported in the art, including, for example, the dosages described in the Physicians' Desk Reference, Thomson PDR, Thomson PDR, 57th edition (2003), the 58th edition (2004), or the 59th edition (2005). The dosage ranges for a compound of the invention in these combinations are the same as those set forth above.
The compounds of this invention are also useful in the preparation and execution of screening assays for antiviral compounds. For example, the compounds of this invention are useful for isolating enzyme mutants, which are excellent screening tools for more powerful antiviral compounds. Furthermore, the compounds of this invention are useful in establishing or determining the binding site of other antivirals to HIV protease, e.g., by competitive inhibition. Thus the compounds of this invention are commercial products to be used for these purposes.
In the compounds of Formula I, the atoms may exhibit their natural isotopic abundances, or one or more of the atoms may be artificially enriched in a particular isotope having the same atomic number, but an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number predominantly found in nature. The present invention is meant to include all suitable isotopic variations of the compounds of generic Formula I. For example, different isotopic forms of hydrogen (H) include protium (1H) and deuterium (2H). Protium is the predominant hydrogen isotope found in nature. Enriching for deuterium may afford certain therapeutic advantages, such as increasing in vivo half-life or reducing dosage requirements, or may provide a compound useful as a standard for characterization of biological samples. Isotopically-enriched compounds within generic Formula I can be prepared without undue experimentation by conventional techniques well known to those skilled in the art or by processes analogous to those described in the Schemes and Examples herein using appropriate isotopically-enriched reagents and/or intermediates.

Intermediate 2
(3S)-3-(3,5-Difluorophenyl)-3-(4-fluorophenyl)propanoic acid




Step 1. (4R)-3-[(2E)-3-(3,5-Difluorophenyl)prop-2-enoyl]-4-phenyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one




To a slurry of 3,5-difluorocinammic acid (6.3 g, 34 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (130 mL) was added thionyl chloride (6.2 mL, 85 mmol). The mixture was heated to reflux under a nitrogen atmosphere for 5 h, at which time all solids had dissolved. The solvents were removed in vacuo to give the acid chloride as a solid. A solution of (4R)-4-phenyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one (5.6 g, 34 mmol) in THF (100 mL) under an atmosphere of nitrogen was cooled to −10° C. in an ice-acetone bath. To the stirred solution was added nBuLi (13.6 mL of a 2.5 M solution in hexane, 34 mmol) dropwise over a period of 10 min. To this solution was added a solution of the acid chloride in 40 mL of THF dropwise over 10 min. The resulting solution was stirred at 0° C. in an ice-water bath for 1 h. The reaction was quenched with the addition of aqueous NaHCO3, and the mixture was extracted three times with EtOAc. The combined organic extracts were washed with water and brine, then dried (MgSO4), filtered, and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The residue was chromatographed on a 330 g SiO2 column using a gradient elution of 0-50% EtOAc:A, where A=1:1 hexanes:CHCl3. Fractions containing product were combined and the solvents were removed in vacuo to give a solid.
Step 2. (4R)-3-[(3S)-3-(3,5-Difluorophenyl)-3-(4-fluorophenyl)propanoyl]-4-phenyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one




A solution of 4-fluorophenylmagnesium bromide (29 mL of a 2.0 M solution in THF, 58 mmol) and copper(I) bromide-dimethylsulfide complex (12 g, 59 mmol) in THF (100 mL) under an atmosphere of nitrogen was cooled to −40° C. in a dry ice-acetonitrile bath. To the stirred solution was added a solution of (4R)-3-[(2E)-3-(3,5-difluorophenyl)prop-2-enoyl]-4-phenyl-1,3-oxazolidin-2-one (7.7 g, 23 mmol) in 100 mL of THF dropwise over 15 min. The resulting mixture was stirred at −40° C. for 1.5 h, then the cooling bath was removed and the stirred mixture was allowed to warm to ambient temperature. The reaction was quenched by the addition of aqueous NH4Cl solution. The resulting mixture was stirred for 15 min then extracted with two portions of EtOAc. The combined organic phases were washed with water and brine, then dried (MgSO4), filtered, and the solvents were removed in vacuo. The residue was chromatographed on a 330 g SiO2 column using a gradient elution of 0-50% EtOAc:A, where A=1:1 hexanes:CHCl3. Fractions containing product were combined and the solvents were removed in vacuo to give a solid.
Step 3. (3S)-3-(3,5-Difluorophenyl)-3-(4-fluorophenyl)propanoic acid

EXAMPLE 350
Methyl ((S)-1,1-bis(4-fluorophenyl)-3-oxo-3-(((1S,2R)-2-(2-((S)-1-(phenylsulfonyl)piperazin-2-yl)ethyl)cyclopentyl)amino)propan-2-yl)carbamate




Step 1: (R)-1-benzyl 4-tert-butyl 2-(hydroxymethyl)piperazine-1,4-dicarboxylate




To a biphasic mixture of alcohol (9.9 g, 46 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (160 mL) and sat. aq. NaHCO3 (160 mL) at rt was added benzyl chloroformate (6.5 mL, 46 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (15 mL) over  ̃10 minutes. The resulting biphasic mixture was stirred at rt overnight (12 h) whereupon the reaction was analyzed by both TLC and LC-MS to reveal consumption of starting material. The mixture was transferred to a separatory funnel where the layers were separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×150 mL) and the organic layers were combined. The organic layer was dried (Na2SO4), filtered, concentrated under reduced pressure and placed under high vacuum to afford a thick yellow oil. The crude oil was dissolved in CH2Cl2 (15 mL) and was loaded onto a 220 g silica gel column. A gradient of 100% hexanes to 10% hexanes/90% EtOAc was run over 50 minutes whereupon the tubes containing the product were combined and concentrated under reduced pressure. The title compound was placed under high vacuum to afford 15.1 g of a light yellow oil. MS: m/z=351 (M+H+).
Step 2: (R)-1-benzyl 4-tert-butyl 2-formylpiperazine-1,4-dicarboxylate




To a mixture of (R)-1-benzyl 4-tert-butyl 2-(hydroxymethyl)piperazine-1,4-dicarboxylate (8.4 g, 24 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (120 mL) at 0° C. was added Dess-Martin Periodinane (12.2 g, 29 mmol) portionwise over  ̃5 minutes. The resulting milky solution was stirred for 3 h at 0° C. whereupon the mixture was deemed to be completed by TLC. Solid calcium hydroxide ( ̃12 g) was added to the mixture and the resulting heterogenous mixture was stirred for 1 h at 0° C. The mixture was filtered thru a pad of Celite and the pad was washed with CH2Cl2 (3×100 mL). The resulting filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 8.35 g of the title compound as a clear oil. This was taken on crude without further purification.
MS: m/z=349 (M+H+).
Step 3: (S)-1-benzyl 4-tert-butyl 2-vinylpiperazine-1,4-dicarboxylate




To a solution of methyltriphenylphosphonium bromide (12.9 g, 36 mmol) in THF (30 mL) at rt was added a 0.5 M solution of KHMDS (72 ml, 36 mmol) dropwise to afford a yellow solution. The mixture was stirred for 1 h at rt and was cooled to −78° C. whereupon a solution of (R)-1-benzyl 4-tert-butyl 2-formylpiperazine-1,4-dicarboxylate (4.2 g, 12 mmol) in THF (30 mL) was added dropwise over  ̃20 minutes. The resulting solution was allowed to gradually warm to rt and stir for 3 h. TLC analysis revealed consumption of sm so the mixture was quenched with MeOH ( ̃50 mL) and stirred for 15 min. Sat. aq. Rochelle's salt (30 mL) was added followed by Et2O (100 mL) and the mixture was transferred to a separatory funnel. The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with Et2O (3×75 mL) and the organic layers were combined. The organic layer was washed with brine (1×30 mL), dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford a thick yellow oil. The crude material was taken up in CH2Cl2 (5 mL) and was loaded onto a 220 g silica gel column attached to an ISCO purification system. A gradient of 100% hexanes to 50% hexanes/50% EtOAc was run over 35 minutes whereupon the tubes containing the product were combined, concentrated under reduced pressure, and placed under high vacuum to afford 3.4 g of the title compound as a clear oil. MS: m/z=347 (M+H+).
Step 4: (S)-tert-butyl 3-vinylpiperazine-1-carboxylate




To a round bottom flask charged with a stir bar was added triethylsilane (1.59 mL, 9.9 mmol), Pd(OAc)2 (51 mg, 0.225 mmol), and Et3N (6 μL, 0.045 mmol) followed by addition of CH2Cl2 (21 mL). The resulting dark brown mixture was stirred for 15 min whereupon (S)-1-benzyl 4-tert-butyl 2-vinylpiperazine-1,4-dicarboxylate (1.56 g, 4.5 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (9 mL) was added dropwise to the mixture. The mixture was stirred for 12 h at rt whereupon LC-MS analysis and TLC revealed consumption of starting material. The mixture was diluted with sat. aq. NaHCO3 (9 mL) and the mixture was transferred to a separatory funnel. The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with CH2Cl2 (3×20 mL) combining the organic layers. The organic layer was dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford a brown oil. The crude material was taken up in CH2Cl2 (6 mL) and was loaded onto an 120 g silica gel column attached to an ISCO purification system. A gradient of 100% CH2Cl2 to 90% CH2Cl2/10% MeOH over 35 minutes whereupon the tubes containing product were combined, concentrated under reduced pressure, and placed under high vacuum to afford 750 mg (78%) of the title compound as a brown oil. MS: m/z=213 (M+H+) and 157 (M-t-butyl+H)+.
Step 5: (S)-tert-butyl 4-(phenylsulfonyl)-3-vinylpiperazine-1-carboxylate




To a solution of (S)-tert-butyl 3-vinylpiperazine-1-carboxylate (0.60 g, 2.82 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (18 mL) at 0° C. was added Et3N (0.60 mL, 4.2 mmol) followed by benzenesulfonyl chloride (0.48 mL, 3.6 mmol) to afford a brown, homogenous mixture. The resulting mixture was allowed to warm to room temperature and stir for 12 h whereupon TLC analysis revealed consumption of starting material. The mixture was diluted with CH2Cl2 (30 mL) and sat. aq. NaHCO3 (10 mL) and the layers were separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with CH2Cl2 (2×25 mL) and the organic layers were combined. The organic layer was washed with brine (15 mL), dried (Na2SO4), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude material was purified by preparative thin-layer chromatography (6×1000 uM) using a 2:1 mixture of hexanes/EtOAc as eluent. The lower band from each plate was scraped, combined, stirred with CH2Cl2, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 600 mg (63%) of the title compound as a light brown oil. MS: m/z=353 (M+H+).
Step 6: (5)-tert-butyl 3-((E)-2-((1R,2S)-2-(((benzyloxy)carbonyl)amino)cyclopentyl)vinyl)-4-(phenylsulfonyl)piperazine-1-carboxylate




To a solution of (S)-tert-butyl 4-(phenylsulfonyl)-3-vinylpiperazine-1-carboxylate (350 mg, 1.141 mmol) and benzyl ((1S,2R)-2-vinylcyclopentyl)carbamate (200 mg, 0.815 mmol) in anhydrous dichloromethane (25 mL) was bubbled in nitrogen gas for 15 minutes. Zhan I catalyst (100 mg, 0.151 mmol) was then added and the resulting green solution was heated to 50° C. overnight under nitrogen atmosphere (reflux condensor set on round bottom flask). The reaction was filtered through a silica plug eluting with 100% ethyl acetate to remove some of the Zhan catalyst by-product. The filtrate was then concentrated to dryness and the residue was taken up into ether (12 mL) in which the residual catalyst crystallized. The solid was filtered off and washed with ether (1×10 mL). The ether solution was then concentrated under vacuum and the residue was purified via ISCO (40 g silica gel column) eluting with a gradient of 0-100% ethyl acetate in hexane over 12 CV. The tubes containing the product were collected and concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure to afford the product as a white foam solid (175 mg, 40.2%).
MS: m/z=570 (M+H+)
Step 7: (5)-tert-butyl 3-(2-((1R,2S)-2-aminocyclopentyl)ethyl)-4-(phenylsulfonyl)piperazine-1-carboxylate




To a solution of (S)-tert-butyl 3-((E)-2-((1R,2S)-2-(((benzyloxy)carbonyl)amino)cyclopentyl)vinyl)-4-(phenylsulfonyl)piperazine-1-carboxylate (170 mg, 0.30 mmol) in methanol (5 mL) was added 40 mg of 10% Pd—C and the resulting suspension set under hydrogen atmosphere, via balloon of hydrogen, and stirred at room temperature for 3 hours. LC-MS was checked and the reaction was deemed complete. The catalyst was filtered off using a Gilmen 0.45 PTFE syringe filter and washed with methanol (2×10 mL). The filtrate was then concentrated under reduced pressure to afford the product (110 mg, 86%). This compound was used without further purification. MS: m/z=438 (M+H+).
Step 8: (5)-tert-butyl 3-(2-((1R,2S)-2-((S)-3,3-bis(4-fluorophenyl)-2-((methoxycarbonyl)amino)propanamido)cyclopentyl)ethyl)-4-(phenylsulfonyl)piperazine-1-carboxylate




To a solution of (S)-tert-butyl 3-(2-((1R,2S)-2-aminocyclopentyl)ethyl)-4-(phenylsulfonyl)piperazine-1-carboxylate (30 mg, 0.07 mmol) in DCM (1 mL) under N2 at 0° C. was added (S)-3,3-bis(4-fluorophenyl)-2-((methoxycarbonyl)amino)propanoic acid (30 mg, 0.09 mmol) followed by dropwise addition of DIPEA (15.7 L, 0.08 mmol). HATU (42.5 mg, 0.112 mmol) was then added to the mixture in a single portion to afford a light yellow solution.

The product formation is determined after separation of product and substrate on a Zorbax Eclipse XDB-C18 column connected to an API 4000 mass spectrometer (Applied Biosystems) with multiple reaction monitoring (transitions were 644.5/428.9 and 615.4/422.2 (M1/M3) for product and indinavir respectively). The extent of inhibition of the reaction is determined from the peak area of the products. Analysis of the products, independently synthesized, provided quantitation standards and confirmation of the product composition. Representative compounds in the Examples of the present invention exhibit inhibition of HIV-1 protease in this assay as shown in Table 8.
Cell-Based HIV Infection Assay Using a Reporter (“Cell-Based”):
MT4-GFP cells contain a stably integrated HIV long terminal repeat promoter directing the transcription of green fluorescent protein (GFP). When HIV infects the cell, GFP is produced and the cell becomes green. MT4-GFP cells (250,000 cells/ml) were bulk-infected with HIV-1 (H9IIIB strain) at low multiplicity of infection (MOI) in RPMI media, supplemented with 10% FBS for 24 hours. Cells were then washed once in RPMI plus 10% FBS and resuspended in RPMI plus 50% normal human serum (NHS). Test compounds were serial-diluted in DMSO using an ECHO liquid dispenser. A control well included a combination of three HIV drugs (an inhibitor of HIV protease, integrase strand transfer and a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor; triple drug). The infected MT4-GFP cells were added to a 384-well poly-D-lysine coated black plate with clear bottom in which the diluted test compounds were placed. The cells were seeded in the plate at 8,000 cells per well and the final DMSO concentration was 0.4%. Infected cells were quantified at both 24 and 48 hours post incubation using an Acumen eX3 plate reader. Viral reproductive ratio (R0) was determined using the number of infected cells at 48 hours divided by the number of infected cells at 24 hours. Percent viral growth inhibition was calculated by [1−(R−Rtripledrug)/(RDMSO−Rtripledrug)]*100. Compound potency IP or IC50 was determined with use of a 4-parameter dose response curve analysis.
Table 8 shows data obtained from the above described assays for the indicated examples. Data shown in the table reflects the mean of at least two independent experiments.
