FIELD OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to compounds that inhibit the tyrosine kinase activity of growth factor receptors such as HER1, HER2, and HER4 thereby making them useful as anti-cancer agents. The compounds are also useful in the treatment of diseases, other than cancer, which are associated with signal transduction pathways operating through growth factor receptors such as HER1, HER2 and HER4.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are important in the transmission of biochemical signals across the plasma membrane of cells. These transmembrane molecules characteristically consist of an extracellular ligand-binding domain connected through a segment in the plasma membrane to an intracellular tyrosine kinase domain.
The human epidermal growth factor receptor (HER) family consists of four distinct receptor tyrosine kinases referred to HER1, HER2, HER3, and HER4. These kinases are also referred to as erbB1, erbB2, etc. HER1 is also commonly referred to as the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor. With the exception of HER3, these receptors have intrinsic protein kinase activity that is specific for tyrosine residues of phosphoacceptor proteins. The HER kinases are expressed in most epithelial cells as well as tumor cells of epithelial origin. They are also often expressed in tumor cells of mesenchymal origin such as sarcomas or rhabdomyosarcomas. RTKs such as HER1 and HER2 are involved in cell proliferation and are associated with diseases such as psoriasis and cancer. Disruption of signal transduction by inhibition of these kinases would have an antiproliferative and therapeutic effect.
The enzymatic activity of receptor tyrosine kinases can be stimulated by either overexpression, or by ligand-mediated dimerization. The formation of homodimers as well as heterodimers has been demonstrated for the HER receptor family. An example of homodimerization is the dimerization of HER1 (EGF receptor) by one of the EGF family of ligands (which includes EGF, transforming growth factor alpha, betacellulin, heparin-binding EGF, and epiregulin). Heterodimerization among the four HER receptor kinases can be promoted by binding to members of the heregulin (also referred to neuregulin) family of ligands. Such heterodimerization as involving HER2 and HER3, or a HER3/HER4 combination, results in a significant stimulation of the tyrosine kinase activity of the receptor dimers even though one of the receptors (HER3) is enzymatically inert. The kinase activity of HER2 has been shown to be activated also by virtue of overexpression of the receptor alone in a variety of cell types. Activation of receptor homodimers and heterodimers results in phosphorylation of tyrosine residues on the receptors and on other intracellular proteins. This is followed by the activation of intracellular signaling pathways such as those involving the microtubule associated protein kinase (MAP kinase) and the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3 kinase). Activation of these pathways have been shown to lead to cell proliferation and the inhibition of apoptosis. Inhibition of HER kinase signaling has been shown to inhibit cell proliferation and survival.
All protein kinases contain a structurally conserved catalytic domain of approximately 250-300 amino acid residues1. FIG. 1 shows an X-ray structure of HER12 which encompasses the highly conserved features of all members of the protein kinase family. The protein kinase fold is separated into two subdomains, or lobes. The smaller N-terminal lobe, or N lobe, is composed of a five-stranded β sheet and one prominent α helix, called helix αC. The C lobe is larger and is predominantly helical. The two lobes are connected through a single polypeptide strand (the linker/hinge region), which acts as a hinge about which the two domains can rotate with respect to one other upon binding of ATP and/or substrate. ATP is bound in the deep cleft between the two lobes and sits beneath a highly conserved loop connecting strands β1 and β2. This phosphate binding loop, or P loop, contains a conserved glycine-rich sequence motif (GXGXφG) where φ is usually tyrosine or phenylalanine. The glycine residues allow the loop to approach the phosphates of ATP very closely and to coordinate them via backbone interactions. The conserved aromatic side chain caps the site of phosphate transfer. ATP is anchored to the enzyme via hydrogen bonds between its adenine moiety and the backbone atoms of the linker region, and the ribose ring to residues at the start of the C-terminal domain.
Optimal phosphotransfer requires the precise spatial arrangement of several catalytic residues that are absolutely conserved among all known kinases. Asp813 and Asn818 (HER1 numbering as given in reference 2 or numbered as Asp837 and Asn842 as found in REFSEQ: accession NM—005228) emanate from a highly conserved loop structure at the base of the active site, called the catalytic loop. Asp813 interacts with the attacking hydroxyl side chain of the substrate, while Asn818 engages in hydrogen bonding interactions that orient Asp813. Asn818 and another absolutely conserved catalytic residue, Asp831 (numbered as Asp855 as found in REFSEQ: accession NM—005228), are also required for the binding of two divalent metal cations involved in coordination of the triphosphate group.
Numerous structures of complexes with ATP, its analogs, or small-molecule inhibitors bound to different protein kinases have provided a clear description of the organization of the catalytic domain and the ATP-binding cleft and of the similarities and differences that exist within the binding region3. It is now clear that there are regions within the binding cleft that are not occupied by ATP, and that these show structural diversity between members of the kinase family. FIG. 2 shows the interactions of ATP with the hinge region of human cyclin-dependent kinase 2 (CDK2)4. The generic regions of all known kinase ATP binding sites are delineated in the figure as: (1) the adenine binding region; (2) the ribose pocket; (3) the phosphate binding pocket; (4) a mostly hydrophobic region 1, behind the adenine ring, and (5) region 2, a cleft or a tunnel adjacent to the ribose pocket and the N3 nitrogen of adenine which points towards a surface-exposed area of the kinase domain. The available structures of kinase/inhibitor complexes indicate that one can take advantage of the regions not occupied by ATP, e.g. regions 1 and 2, for increasing binding interactions and hence binding potency and potentially because of sequence differences between kinases in these regions also modulate selectivity.
A combination of crystallography, modeling, screening and medicinal chemistry efforts has led to the understanding of the binding mode of the pyrrolotriazine chemotype in the ATP binding site. Based on an X-ray crystal structure of the pyrrolotriazine chemotype inhibitor in VEGFR-2, it has been shown that the pyrrolotriazine ring binds in the adenine pocket and makes several key interactions with the hinge region similarly to ATP. In this binding mode, the C5 group is directed into the highly conserved ribose-phosphate pockets. The C4 group, depending on its chemical constituency, can be directed into the specificity region 1 and the C6 group is directed into the specificity region 2. Modeling of enumerated examples of this chemotype in HER1 shows that the C5 group claimed in this invention can at the least occupy the ribose-phosphate pocket and interact with at least one or more of the absolutely conserved residues involved in phosphate binding, e.g., Asn818 and Asp831 (HER1 numbering).
The conserved nature of the kinase catalytic core structure makes it an excellent target for the generic kinase inhibitor template afforded by the pyrrolotriazine ring and the C5 group. This template can be successfully derivatized to make specific and potent kinase ATP-competitive inhibitors by targeting the poorly conserved areas of the ATP-binding site.
It has surprisingly been found that compounds of the invention and other compounds such as those disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,457,105, 5,616,582 and 5,770,599, which contain a small aniline derivative as the substituent off of the C4 position of the bicyclic ring, exhibit both HER1 and HER2 activity.

Utility
The present invention is based on the discovery that certain pyrrolotriazines are inhibitors of protein kinases. More specifically, pyrrolotriazines such as those described in this invention inhibit the protein tyrosine kinase activity of members of the HER family of receptors. These inhibitors will be useful in the treatment of proliferative diseases that are dependent on signaling by one or more of these receptors. Such diseases include psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, and solid tumors of the lung, head and neck, breast, colon, ovary, and prostate. The invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition of compound of formula I, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt or hydrate thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier in the treatment of hyperproliferative disorder in mammal. In particular, the said pharmaceutical composition is expected to inhibit the growth of those primary and recurrent solid tumors which are associated with HER1 (EGF receptor) and HER2, especially those tumors which are significantly dependent on HER1 or HER2 for their growth and spread, including for example, cancers of the bladder, squamous cell, head, colorectal, oesophageal, gynecological (such as ovarian), pancreas, breast, prostate, vulva, skin, brain, genitourinary tract, lymphatic system (such as thyroid), stomach, larynx and lung. In another embodiment, the compounds of the present invention are also useful in the treatment of noncancerous disorders such as psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis.
Thus according to a further aspect of the invention there is provided the use of a compound of the formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in the manufacture of a medicament for use in the production of an antiproliferative effect in a warm-blooded animal such as a human being.
According to a further feature of the invention there is provided a method for producing an antiproliferative effect in a warm-blooded animal, such as a human being, in need of such treatment which comprises administering to said animal an effective amount of a compound of formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as defined herein before.
By virtue of their ability to inhibit HER1, HER2, and HER4 kinases, compounds of the present invention can be used for the treatment of proliferative diseases, including psoriasis and cancer. The HER1 receptor kinase has been shown to be expressed and activated in many solid tumors including head and neck, prostate, non-small cell lung, colorectal, and breast cancer. Similarly, the HER2 receptor kinase has been shown to be overexpressed in breast, ovarian, lung and gastric cancer. Monoclonal antibodies that downregulate the abundance of the HER2 receptor or inhibit signaling by the HER1 receptor have shown anti-tumor efficacy in preclincal and clinical studies. It is therefore expected that inhibitors of the HER1 and HER2 kinases will have efficacy in the treatment of tumors that depend on signaling from either of the two receptors. In addition, these compounds will have efficacy in inhibiting tumors that rely on HER receptor heterodimer signaling. These compounds are expected to have efficacy either as single agent or in combination (simultaneous or sequentially) with other chemotherapeutic agents such as Taxol®, adriamycin, and cisplatin. Since HER1 and HER2 signaling has been shown to regulate expression of angiogenic factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and interleukin 8 (IL8), these compounds are expected to have anti-tumor efficacy resulting from the inhibition of angiogenesis in addition to the inhibition of tumor cell proliferation and survival. The HER2 receptor has been shown to be involved in the hyperproliferation of synovial cells in rheumatoid arthritis, and may contribute to the angiogenic component of that inflammatory disease state. The inhibitors described in this invention are therefore expected to have efficacy in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. The ability of these compounds to inhibit HER1 further adds to their use as anti-angiogenic agents.

The antiproliferative treatment defined herein before may be applied as a sole therapy or may involve, in addition to a compound of the invention, one or more other substances and/or treatments. Such conjoint treatment may be achieved by way of the simultaneous, sequential or separate administration of the individual components of the treatment. The compounds of this invention may also be useful in combination with known anti-cancer and cytotoxic agents and treatments, including radiation. If formulated as a fixed dose, such combination products employ the compounds of this invention within the dosage range described below and the other pharmaceutically active agent within its approved dosage range. Compounds of formula I may be used sequentially with known anticancer or cytotoxic agents and treatment, including radiation when a combination formulation is inappropriate.
In the field of medical oncology it is normal practice to use a combination of different forms of treatment to treat each patient with cancer.

        (iii) antiproliferative/antineoplastic drugs and combinations thereof, as used in medical oncology, such as antimetabolites (for example, antifolates such as methotrexate, fluoropyrimidines such as 5-fluorouracil, purine and adenosine analogues, cytosine arabinoside); Intercalating antitumour antibiotics (for example, anthracyclines such as doxorubicin, daunomycin, epirubicin and idarubicin, mitomycin-C, dactinomycin, mithramycin); platinum derivatives (for example, cisplatin, carboplatin); alkylating agents (for example, nitrogen mustard, melphalan, chlorambucil, busulphan, cyclophosphamide, ifosfamide nitrosoureas, thiotepa; antimitotic agents (for example, vinca alkaloids like vincristine, vinorelbine, vinblastine and vinflunine, and taxoids such as Taxol® (paclitaxel), Taxotere® (docetaxel) and newer microbtubule agents such as epothilone analogs, discodermolide analogs, and eleutherobin analogs); topoisomerase inhibitors (for example, epipodophyllotoxins such as etoposide and teniposide, amsacrine, topotecan, irinotecan); cell cycle inhibitors (for example, flavopyridols); biological response modifiers and proteasome inhibitors such as Velcade® (bortezomib).
    
    


As stated above, the formula I compounds of the present invention are of interest for their antiproliferative effects. Such compounds of the invention are expected to be useful in a wide range of disease states including cancer, psoriasis, and rheumatoid arthritis.
More specifically, the compounds of formula I are useful in the treatment of a variety of cancers, including (but not limited to) the following:

    
    
        carcinoma, including that of the bladder, breast, colon, kidney, liver, lung, including small cell lung cancer, esophagus, gall bladder, ovary, pancreas, stomach, cervix, thyroid, prostate, and skin, including squamous cell carcinoma;
        tumors of mesenchymal origin, including fibrosarcoma and rhabdomyosarcoma;
        tumors of the central and peripheral nervous system, including astrocytoma, neuroblastoma, glioma and schwannomas; and
        other tumors, including melanoma, seminoma, teratocarcinoma, and osteosarcoma.
    
    


Due to the key role of kinases in the regulation of cellular proliferation in general, inhibitors could act as reversible cytostatic agents which may be useful in the treatment of any disease process which features abnormal cellular proliferation, e.g., benign prostate hyperplasia, familial adenomatosis polyposis, neuro-fibromatosis, pulmonary fibrosis, arthritis, psoriasis, glomerulonephritis, restenosis following angioplasty or vascular surgery, hypertrophic scar formation and inflammatory bowel disease
The compounds of formula I are especially useful in treatment of tumors having a high incidence of tyrosine kinase activity, such as colon, lung, and pancreatic tumors. By the administration of a composition (or a combination) of the compounds of this invention, development of tumors in a mammalian host is reduced.
Compounds of formula I may also be useful in the treatment of diseases other than cancer that may be associated with signal transduction pathways operating through growth factor receptors such as HER1 (EGF receptor), HER2, or HER4.
The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention containing the active ingredient may be in a form suitable for oral use, for example, as tablets, troches, lozenges, aqueous or oily suspensions, dispersible powders or granules, emulsions, hard or soft capsules, or syrups or elixirs. Compositions intended for oral use may be prepared according to any method known to the art for the manufacture of pharmaceutical compositions and such compositions may contain one or more agents selected from the group consisting of sweetening agents, flavoring agents, coloring agents and preserving agents in order to provide pharmaceutically elegant and palatable preparations. Tablets contain the active ingredient in admixture with non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable excipients which are suitable for the manufacture of tablets. These excipients may be for example, inert diluents, such as calcium carbonate, sodium carbonate, lactose, calcium phosphate or sodium phosphate; granulating and disintegrating agents, for example, microcrystalline cellulose, sodium crosscarmellose, corn starch, or alginic acid; binding agents, for example starch, gelatin, polyvinyl-pyrrolidone or acacia, and lubricating agents, for example, magnesium stearate, stearic acid or talc. The tablets may be uncoated or they may be coated by known techniques to mask the unpleasant taste of the drug or delay disintegration and absorption in the gastrointestinal tract and thereby provide a sustained action over a longer period. For example, a water soluble taste masking material such as hydroxypropyl-methylcellulose or hydroxypropyl-cellulose, or a time delay material such as ethyl cellulose, cellulose acetate buryrate may be employed.
Formulations for oral use may also be presented as hard gelatin capsules wherein the active ingredient is mixed with an inert solid diluent, for example, calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate or kaolin, or as soft gelatin capsules wherein the active ingredient is mixed with water soluble carrier such as polyethyleneglycol or an oil medium, for example peanut oil, liquid paraffin, or olive oil.
Aqueous suspensions contain the active material in admixture with excipients suitable for the manufacture of aqueous suspensions. Such excipients are suspending agents, for example sodium carboxymethylcellulose, methylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethyl-cellulose, sodium alginate, polyvinyl-pyrrolidone, gum tragacanth and gum acacia; dispersing or wetting agents may be a naturally-occurring phosphatide, for example lecithin, or condensation products of an alkylene oxide with fatty acids, for example polyoxyethylene stearate, or condensation products of ethylene oxide with long chain aliphatic alcohols, for example heptadecaethylene-oxycetanol, or condensation products of ethylene oxide with partial esters derived from fatty acids and a hexitol such as polyoxyethylene sorbitol monooleate, or condensation products of ethylene oxide with partial esters derived from fatty acids and hexitol anhydrides, for example polyethylene sorbitan monooleate. The aqueous suspensions may also contain one or more preservatives, for example ethyl, or n-propyl p-hydroxybenzoate, one or more coloring agents, one or more flavoring agents, and one or more sweetening agents, such as sucrose, saccharin or aspartame.
Oily suspensions may be formulated by suspending the active ingredient in a vegetable oil, for example arachis oil, olive oil, sesame oil or coconut oil, or in mineral oil such as liquid paraffin. The oily suspensions may contain a thickening agent, for example beeswax, hard paraffin or cetyl alcohol. Sweetening agents such as those set forth above, and flavoring agents may be added to provide a palatable oral preparation. These compositions may be preserved by the addition of an anti-oxidant such as butylated hydroxyanisol or alpha-tocopherol.
Dispersible powders and granules suitable for preparation of an aqueous suspension by the addition of water provide the active ingredient in admixture with a dispersing or wetting agent, suspending agent and one or more preservatives. Suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents are exemplified by those already mentioned above. Additional excipients, for example sweetening, flavoring and coloring agents, may also be present. These compositions may be preserved by the addition of an anti-oxidant such as ascorbic acid.
The pharmaceutical compositions of the invention may also be in the form of an oil-in-water emulsions. The oily phase may be a vegetable oil, for example olive oil or arachis oil, or a mineral oil, for example liquid paraffin or mixtures of these. Suitable emulsifying agents may be naturally-occurring phosphatides, for example soy bean lecithin, and esters or partial esters derived from fatty acids and hexitol anhydrides, for example sorbitan monooleate, and condensation products of the said partial esters with ethylene oxide, for example polyoxyethylene sorbitan monooleate. The emulsions may also contain sweetening, flavoring agents, preservatives and antioxidants.
Syrups and elixirs may be formulated with sweetening agents, for example glycerol, propylene glycol, sorbitol or sucrose. Such formulations may also contain a demulcent, a preservative, flavoring and coloring agents and antioxidant.
The pharmaceutical compositions may be in the form of a sterile injectable aqueous solutions. Among the acceptable vehicles and solvents that may be employed are water, Ringer's solution and isotonic sodium chloride solution.
The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable oil-in-water microemulsion where the active ingredient is dissolved in the oily phase. For example, the active ingredient may be first dissolved in a mixture of soybean oil and lecithin. The oil solution then introduced into a water and glycerol mixture and processed to form a microemulation.
The injectable solutions or microemulsions may be introduced into a patient's blood-stream by local bolus injection. Alternatively, it may be advantageous to administer the solution or microemulsion in such a way as to maintain a constant circulating concentration of the instant compound. In order to maintain such a constant concentration, a continuous intravenous delivery device may be utilized. An example of such a device is the Deltec CADD-PLUSTM model 5400 intravenous pump.
The pharmaceutical compositions may be in the form of a sterile injectable aqueous or oleagenous suspension for intramuscular and subcutaneous administration. This suspension may be formulated according to the known art using those suitable dispersing or wetting agents and suspending agents which have been mentioned above. The sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution or suspension in a non-toxic parenterally-acceptable diluent or solvent, for example as a solution in 1,3-butane diol. In addition, sterile, fixed oils are conventionally employed as a solvent or suspending medium. For this purpose any bland fixed oil may be employed including synthetic mono- or diglycerides. In addition, fatty acids such as oleic acid find use in the preparation of injectables.
Compounds of Formula I may also be administered in the form of a suppositories for rectal administration of the drug. These compositions can be prepared by mixing the drug with a suitable non-irritating excipient which is solid at ordinary temperatures but liquid at the rectal temperature and will therefore melt in the rectum to release the drug. Such materials include cocoa butter, glycerinated gelatin, hydrogenated vegetable oils, mixtures of polyethylene glycols of various molecular weights and fatty acid esters of polyethylene glycol.
For topical use, creams, ointments, jellies, solutions or suspensions, etc., containing the compound of Formula I are employed. (For purposes of this application, topical application shall include mouth washes and gargles.)
The compounds for the present invention can be administered in intranasal form via topical use of suitable intranasal vehicles and delivery devices, or via transdermal routes, using those forms of transdermal skin patches well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. To be administered in the form of a transdermal delivery system, the dosage administration will, of course, be continuous rather than intermittent throughout the dosage regimen. Compounds of the present invention may also be delivered as a suppository employing bases such as cocoa butter, glycerinated gelatin, hydrogenated vegetable oils, mixtures of polyethylene glycols of various molecular weights and fatty acid esters of polyethylene glycol.
When a compound according to this invention is administered into a human subject, the daily dosage will normally be determined by the prescribing physician with the dosage generally varying according to the age, weight, sex and response of the individual patient, as well as the severity of the patient's symptoms.
If formulated as a fixed dose, such combination products employ the compounds of this invention within the dosage range described above and the other pharmaceutically active agent or treatment within its approved dosage range. Compounds of formula I may also be administered sequentially with known anticancer or cytotoxic agents when a combination formulation is inappropriate. The invention is not limited in the sequence of administration; compounds of formula I may be administered either prior to or after administration of the known anticancer or cytotoxic agent(s).
The compounds may be administered in a dosage range of about 0.05 to 200 mg/kg/day, preferably less than 100 mg/kg/day, in a single dose or in 2 to 4 divided doses.
Biological Assays
HER1, HER2 or HER4 Kinase Assays
Compounds of interest were assayed in a kinase buffer that contained 20 mM Tris.HCl, pH 7.5, 10 mM MnCl2, 0.5 mM dithiothreitol, bovine serum albumin at 0.1 mg/ml, poly(glu/tyr, 4:1) at 0.1 mg/ml, 1 μM ATP, and 4 μCi/ml [γ-33P]ATP. Poly(glu/tyr, 4:1) is a synthetic polymer that serves as a phosphoryl acceptor and is purchased from Sigma Chemicals. The kinase reaction is initiated by the addition of enzyme and the reaction mixtures were incubated at 26° C. for 1 h. The reaction is terminated by the addition of EDTA to 50 mM and proteins are precipitated by the addition of trichloroacetic acid to 5%. The precipitated proteins are recovered by filtration onto Packard Unifilter plates and the amount of radioactivity incorporated is measured in a Topcount scintillation counter.
For the preparation of recombinant HER1 and HER4, the cytoplasmic sequences of the receptors were expressed in insect cells as GST fusion proteins, which were purified by affinity chromatography. The cytoplasmic sequence of HER2 was subcloned into the baculovirus expression vector pBlueBac4 (Invitrogen) and was expressed as an untagged protein in insect cells. The recombinant protein was partially purified by ion-exchange chromatography.
The instant compounds inhibit HER1, HER2, and HER4 kinases with IC50 values between 0.001 to 25 μM. Preferred compounds have IC50 values between 0.001-5.0 μM. More preferred compounds have IC50 values between 0.001-1.0 μM. Most preferred compounds have IC50 values between 0.001-0.1 μM.

Step 2
Compound vii may be converted to ammonium salt Compound viii by treatment with a tertiary base such as triethylamine in an anhydrous solvent such as THF.
Step 3
Treatment of Compound viii with an amine or its anion in an anhydrous solvent such as acetonitrile, chloroform or THF affords ammonium salt Compound ix.
Step 4
Conversion of Compound ix to pyrrolotriazine Compound v may be accomplished by treatment of Compound ix with a primary or secondary amine or alcohol in the presence of a base such as diisopropylethylamine in a solvent such as acetonitrile.
Compounds prepared by the above methods having general formula x in Scheme 3 in which the 5-methylsubstituent contains a protecting group such as t-butoxycarbonyl may further be modified by removal of the protecting group in Step 1 by treatment with anhydrous HCl in diethyl ether or 1,4-dioxane or by treatment of a solution of the compound in CH2Cl2 with trifluoroacetic acid to prepare the free amines xi. Further modification may be accomplished in Step 2 by treating Compound xi with a carbonyl compound such as propanal in the presence of a reducing agent such as sodium triacetoxyborohydride in a solvent such as CH2Cl2 to afford substituted amines xii.




Further compounds may be prepared as shown in Scheme 4. In Step 1, compound ix may be treated with a secondary amine such as bis-(2-chloroethyl)amine in an appropriate solvent such as acetonitrile in the presence of a base such as diisopropylethylamine to afford Compound xii. Compound xii may further be treated with a nucleophile such as hydrazine in Step 2 to afford Compound xiii.




Further 5-substituted pyrrolotriazines may be prepared according to Scheme 5.




Step 1

Compound i may be treated with two equivalents of a brominating reagent such as N-bromosuccinimide in a solvent such as CCl4 at elevated temperature. The resulting 5-dibromopyrrolotriazine may be converted to the corresponding dimethylacetal using methanol in the presence of a base such as NaHCO3 and then to the aldehyde Compound xiv by treating the intermediate acetal with an acid such as trifluoroacetic acid in the presence of water.
Step 2
Treatment of aldehyde Compound xiv with an organometallic reagent such as a Grignard reagent in an anhydrous solvent such as THF affords alcohol xv.
Step 3
Alcohol xv may be treated with a primary or secondary amine or alcohol in the presence of a base such as NaHCO3 in an appropriate solvent such as acetonitrile to afford compounds of formula xvi.
In addition, other compounds of formula I may be prepared using procedures generally known to those skilled in the art. In particular, the following examples provide additional methods for the preparation of the compounds of this invention.

Filtration followed by concentration in vacuo afforded 170 g of Compound 146G as an oil. This material was used directly in the next reaction step without further purification.
Preparation of Compound 146H (chiral):




The mixture of Compound 146G (140 g, 0.818 mol), NaN3 (68.9 g, 1.06 mol) and NH4Cl (56.7 g, 1.06 mol) in ethanol (600 mL) and water (150 mL) was heated at 70° C. overnight. Upon cooling to room temperature, the solid was removed by filtration and rinsed with ethanol. The combined filtrates were concentrated in vacuo to small volume (ca. 80 mL), then diluted with water (500 mL) and extracted with EtOAc (500 mL×4). The combined extracts were dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. Filtration followed by concentration in vacuo and purification by flash chromatography (hexane-EtOAc 7:3 to 6:4) on silica gel afforded Compound 146G in following fractions: 80.7 g of first fraction (AP: >98%), 22.7 g of second fraction (AP: 92-95%) and 15.8 g of third fraction (AP: <60%) as an oil. This material was used directly in next step reaction without further purification. The first and second fractions were combined and subjected to optical resolution using chiral preparatory HPLC with following conditions: Chiralpak AD column, eluted with MeOH-EtOH (1:1). The first eluted peak (Rt=5.605 min) was collected to give 47.52 g of Compound 146H, with >99% ee.
Preparation of Compound 146I (Chiral):




To a solution of Compound 146H (36.42 g, 0.17 mol) in 480 mL of EtOH was added a solution of KOH (112 g, 1.7 mol, 85%) in 240 mL of water. The mixture was heated to reflux for 9.0 hrs and the reaction progress was monitored by TLC. Upon cooling to room temperature, the mixture was concentrated in vacuo to give a paste. Solid NaCl was added and the mixture was extracted with EtOAc (500 mL×3). The combined organic layers were dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. Filtration followed by removal of solvent under reduced pressure afforded 23 g (77%) of crude Compound 146I as a solid. Trituration with ether (250 mL) gave 18.53 g of Compound 146I as a solid (AP: 99%). The mother liquid was concentrated in vacuo, solid NaCl was added and further extracted with more EtOAc (250 mL×4) to provide an additional 4.2 g of crude Compound 146I (AP: <85%).
Compound 146 was prepared from Compound 146I following the procedure used for the preparation of Compound 146E.
