FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to novel compounds, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, as well as to the use of the compounds in medicine and for the preparation of a medicament which acts on the human 11-β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 enzyme (11βHSD1).
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases (HSDs) regulate the occupancy and activation of steroid hormone receptors by converting steroid hormones into their inactive metabolites. For a recent review, see Nobel et al., Eur. J. Biochem. 2001, 268:4113-4125.
There exist numerous classes of HSDs. The 11-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases (11 β-HSDs) catalyze the interconversion of active glucocorticoids (such as cortisol and corticosterone), and their inert forms (such as cortisone and 11-dehydrocorticosterone). The isoform 11-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1) is expressed in liver, adipose tissue, brain, lung and other glucocorticoid tissue and is a potential target for therapy directed at numerous disorders that may be ameliorated by reduction of glucocorticoid action, such as diabetes, obesity and age-related cognitive dysfunction. Seckl, et al., Endocrinology, 2001, 142:1371-1376.
The various isozymes of the 17-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases (17β-HSDs) bind to androgen receptors or estrogen receptors and catalyze the interconversion of various sex hormones including estradiol/estrone and testosterone/androstenedione. To date, six isozymes have been identified in humans and are expressed in various human tissues including endometrial tissue, breast tissue, colon tissue, and in the testes. 17-beta-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 (17β-HSD2) is expressed in human endometrium and its activity has been reported to be linked to cervical cancer. Kitawaki et al., J. Clin. Endocrin. Metab., 2000, 85:1371-3292-3296. 17-beta-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 3 (17β-HSD3) is expressed in the testes and its modulation may be useful for the treatment of androgen-related disorders.
Androgens and estrogens are active in their 17β-hydroxy configurations, whereas their 17-keto derivatives do not bind to androgen and estrogen receptors and are thus inactive. The conversion between the active and inactive forms (estradiol/estrone and testosterone/androstenedione) of sex hormones is catalyzed by members of the 17β-HSD family. 17β-HSD1 catalyzes the formation of estradiol in breast tissue, which is important for the growth of malignant breast tumors. Labrie et al., Mol. Cell. Endocrinol. 1991, 78:C113-C118. A similar role has been suggested for 17β-HSD4 in colon cancer. English et al., J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 1999, 84:2080-2085. 17β-HSD3 is almost exclusively expressed in the testes and converts androstenedione into testosterone. Deficiency of this enzyme during fetal development leads to male pseudohermaphroditism. Geissler et al., Nat. Genet. 1994, 7:34-39. Both 17β-HSD3 and various 3α-HSD isozymes are involved in complex metabolic pathways which lead to androgen shuffles between inactive and active forms. Penning et al., Biochem. J. 2000, 351:67-77. Thus, modulation of certain HSDs can have potentially beneficial effects in the treatment of androgen- and estrogen-related disorders.
The 20-alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases (20α-HSDs) catalyze the interconversion of progestins (such as between progesterone and 20α-hydroxy progesterone). Other substrates for 20α-HSDs include 17α-hydroxypregnenolone or 17α-hydroxyprogesterone, leading to 20α-OH steroids. Several 20α-HSD isoforms have been identified and 20α-HSDs are expressed in various tissues, including the placenta, ovaries, testes and adrenals. Peltoketo, et al., J. Mol. Endocrinol. 1999, 23:1-11.
The 3-alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases (3α-HSDs) catalyze the interconversion of the androgens dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and 5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol and the interconversion of the androgens DHEA and androstenedione and therefore play an important role in androgen metabolism. Ge et al., Biology of Reproduction 1999, 60:855-860.
1. Glucorticoids, Diabetes and Hepatic Glucose Production
It has been known for more than half a century that glucocorticoids have a central role in diabetes. For example, the removal of the pituitary gland or the adrenal gland from a diabetic animal alleviates the most severe symptoms of diabetes and lowers the concentration of glucose in the blood (Long, C. D. and Leukins, F. D. W. (1936) J. Exp. Med. 63: 465-490; Houssay, B. A. (1942) Endocrinology 30: 884-892). It is also well established that glucocorticoids enable the effect of glucagon on the liver.
The role of 11βHSD1 as an important regulator of local glucocorticoid effect and thus of hepatic glucose production is well substantiated (see, e.g., Jamieson et al. (2000) J. Endocrinol. 165: 685-692). Hepatic insulin sensitivity was improved in healthy human volunteers treated with the non-specific 11βHSD1 inhibitor carbenoxolone (Walker, B. R. et al. (1995) J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 80: 3155-3159). Furthermore, the expected mechanism has been established by different experiments with mice and rats. These studies showed that the mRNA levels and activities of two key enzymes in hepatic glucose production were reduced, namely: the rate-limiting enzyme in gluconeogenesis, phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK), and glucose-6-phosphatase (G6Pase) the enzyme catalyzing the last common step of gluconeogenesis and glycogenolysis. Finally, blood glucose levels and hepatic glucose production are reduced in mice in which the 11βHSD1 gene is knocked-out. Data from this model also confirm that inhibition of 11βHSD1 will not cause hypoglycemia, as predicted since the basal levels of PEPCK and G6Pase are regulated independently of glucocorticoids (Kotelevtsev, Y. et al., (1997) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 94: 14924-14929).
FR 2,384,498 discloses compounds having a high hypoglycemic effect. Therefore, treatment of hyperglycemia with these compounds may lead to hypoglycemia.
2. Possible Reduction of Obesity and Obesity Related Cardiovascular Risk Factors
Obesity is an important factor in syndrome X as well as in the majority (>80%) of type 2 diabetes, and omental fat appears to be of central importance. Abdominal obesity is closely associated with glucose intolerance, hyperinsulinemia, hypertriglyceridemia, and other factors of the so-called syndrome X (e.g. increased blood pressure, decreased levels of HDL and increased levels of VLDL) (Montague & O'Rahilly, Diabetes 49: 883-888, 2000). Inhibition of the 11βHSD1 enzyme in pre-adipocytes (stromal cells) has been shown to decrease the rate of differentiation into adipocytes. This is predicted to result in diminished expansion (possibly reduction) of the omental fat depot, i.e., reduced central obesity (Bujalska, I. J., S. Kumar, and P. M. Stewart (1997) Lancet 349: 1210-1213).
Inhibition of 11βHSD1 in mature adipocytes is expected to attenuate secretion of the plasminogen activator inhibitor 1 (PAI-1)—an independent cardiovascular risk factor (Halleux, C. M. et al. (1999) J. Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 84: 4097-4105). Furthermore, there is a clear correlation between glucocorticoid “activity” and cardiovascular risk factor suggesting that a reduction of the glucocorticoid effects would be beneficial (Walker, B. R. et al. (1998) Hypertension 31: 891-895; Fraser, R. et al. (1999) Hypertension 33: 1364-1368).
Adrenalectomy attenuates the effect of fasting to increase both food intake and hypothalamic neuropeptide Y expression. This supports the role of glucocorticoids in promoting food intake and suggests that inhibition of 11βHSD1 in the brain might increase satiety and therefore reduce food intake (Woods, S. C. et al. (1998) Science, 280: 1378-1383).
3. Possible Beneficial Effect on the Pancreas
Inhibition of 11βHSD1 in isolated murine pancreatic β-cells improves glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (Davani, B. et al. (2000) J. Biol. Chem. 2000 Nov. 10; 275(45): 34841-4). Glucocorticoids were previously known to reduce pancreatic insulin release in vivo (Billaudel, B. and B. C. J. Sutter (1979) Horm. Metab. Res. 11: 555-560). Thus, inhibition of 11βHSD1 is predicted to yield other beneficial effects for diabetes treatment, besides the effects on liver and fat.
4. Possible Beneficial Effects on Cognition and Dementia
Stress and glucocorticoids influence cognitive function (de Quervain, D. J.-F., B. Roozendaal, and J. L. McGaugh (1998) Nature 394: 787-790). The enzyme 11βHSD1 controls the level of glucocorticoid action in the brain and thus contributes to neurotoxicity (Rajan, V., C. R. W. Edwards, and J. R. Seckl, J. (1996) Neuroscience 16: 65-70; Seckl, J. R., Front. (2000) Neuroendocrinol. 18: 49-99). Unpublished results indicate significant memory improvement in rats treated with a non-specific 11βHSD1 inhibitor (J. Seckl, personal communication). Based the above and on the known effects of glucocorticoids in the brain, it may also be suggested that inhibiting 11βHSD1 in the brain may result in reduced anxiety (Tronche, F. et al. (1999) Nature Genetics 23: 99-103). Thus, taken together, the hypothesis is that inhibition of 11βHSD1 in the human brain would prevent reactivation of cortisone into cortisol and protect against deleterious glucocorticoid-mediated effects on neuronal survival and other aspects of neuronal function, including cognitive impairment, depression, and increased appetite.
5. Possible Use of Immuno-Modulation Using 11βHSD1 Inhibitors
The general perception is that glucocorticoids suppress the immune system. But in fact there is a dynamic interaction between the immune system and the HPA (hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenal) axis (Rook, G. A. W. (1999) Baillièr's Clin. Endocrinol. Metab. 13: 576-581). The balance between the cell-mediated response and humoral responses is modulated by glucocorticoids. A high glucocorticoid activity, such as at a state of stress, is associated with a humoral response. Thus, inhibition of the enzyme 11βHSD1 has been suggested as a means of shifting the response towards a cell-based reaction.
In certain disease states, including tuberculosis, lepra and psoriasis the immune reaction is normally biased towards a humoral response when in fact the appropriate response would be cell based. Temporal inhibition of 11βHSD1, local or systemic, might be used to push the immune system into the appropriate response (Mason, D. (1991) Immunology Today 12: 57-60; Rook et al., supra).
An analogous use of 11βHSD1 inhibition, in this case temporal, would be to booster the immune response in association with immunization to ensure that a cell based response would be obtained, when desired.
6. Reduction of Intraocular Pressure
Recent data suggest that the levels of the glucocorticoid target receptors and the 11βHSD enzymes determines the susceptibility to glaucoma (Stokes, J. et al. (2000) Invest. Opthalmol. 41: 1629-1638). Further, inhibition of 11βHSD1 was recently presented as a novel approach to lower the intraocular pressure (Walker E. A. et al, poster P3-698 at the Endocrine society meeting Jun. 12-15, 1999, San Diego). Ingestion of carbenoxolone, a non-specific inhibitor of 11βHSD1, was shown to reduce the intraocular pressure by 20% in normal subjects. In the eye, expression of 11βHSD1 is confined to basal cells of the corneal epithelium and the non-pigmented epithelialium of the cornea (the site of aqueous production), to ciliary muscle and to the sphincter and dilator muscles of the iris. In contrast, the distant isoenzyme 11βHSD2 is highly expressed in the non-pigmented ciliary epithelium and corneal endothelium. None of the enzymes is found at the trabecular meshwork, the site of drainage. Thus, 11βHSD1 is suggested to have a role in aqueous production, rather than drainage, but it is presently unknown if this is by interfering with activation of the glucocorticoid or the mineralocorticoid receptor, or both.
7. Reduced Osteoporosis
Glucocorticoids have an essential role in skeletal development and function but are detrimental in excess. Glucocorticoid-induced bone loss is derived, at least in part, via inhibition of bone formation, which includes suppression of osteoblast proliferation and collagen synthesis (Kim, C. H., Cheng, S. L. and Kim, G. S. (1999) J. Endocrinol. 162: 371-379). The negative effect on bone nodule formation could be blocked by the non-specific inhibitor carbenoxolone suggesting an important role of 11βHSD1 in the glucocorticoid effect (Bellows, C. G., Ciaccia, A. and Heersche, J. N. M. (1998) Bone 23: 119-125). Other data suggest a role of 11βHSD1 in providing sufficiently high levels of active glucocorticoid in osteoclasts, and thus in augmenting bone resorption (Cooper, M. S. et al. (2000) Bone 27: 375-381). Taken together, these different data suggest that inhibition of 11βHSD1 may have beneficial effects against osteoporosis by more than one mechanism working in parallel.
8. Reduction of Hypertension
Bile acids inhibit 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2. This results in a shift in the overall body balance in favour of cortisol over cortisone, as shown by studying the ratio of the urinary metabolites (Quattropani, C., Vogt, B., Odermatt, A., Dick, B., Frey, B. M., Frey, F. J. (2001) J Clin Invest. November; 108(9):1299-305. “Reduced activity of 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in patients with cholestasis”.). Reducing the activity of 11bHSD1 in the liver by a selective inhibitor is predicted to reverse this imbalance, and acutely counter the symptoms such as hypertension, while awaiting surgical treatment removing the biliary obstruction.
WO 99/65884 discloses carbon substituted aminothiazole inhibitors of cyclin dependent kinases. These compounds may, e.g., be used against cancer, inflammation and arthritis. U.S. Pat. No. 5,856,347 discloses an antibacterial preparation or bactericide comprising 2-aminothiazole derivative and/or salt thereof. Further, U.S. Pat. No. 5,403,857 discloses benzenesulfonamide derivatives having 5-lipoxygenase inhibitory activity. Additionally, tetrahydrothiazolo[5,4-c]pyridines are disclosed in: Analgesic tetrahydrothiazolo[5,4-c]pyridines. Fr. Addn. (1969), 18 pp, Addn. to Fr. 1498465. CODEN: FAXXA3; FR 94123 19690704 CAN 72:100685 AN 1970:100685 CAPLUS and 4,5,6,7-Tetrahydrothiazolo[5,4-c]pyridines. Neth. Appl. (1967), 39 pp. CODEN: NAXXAN NL 6610324 19670124 CAN 68:49593, AN 1968: 49593 CAPLUS. However, none of the above disclosures discloses the compounds according to the present invention, or their use for the treatment of diabetes, obesity, glaucoma, osteoporosis, cognitive disorders, immune disorders, depression, and hypertension.
WO 98/16520 discloses compounds inhibiting matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and TNF-α converting enzyme (TACE). EP 0 749 964 A1 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,962,490 disclose compounds having an endothelin receptor antagonist activity. WO 00/02851 discloses compounds associated with a disturbed cGMP balance.

9. Wound Healing
Cortisol performs a broad range of metabolic functions and other functions. The multitude of glucocorticoid action is exemplified in patients with prolonged increase in plasma glucocorticoids, so called “Cushing's syndrome”. Patients with Cushing's syndrome have prolonged increase in plasma glucocorticoids and exhibit impaired glucose tolerance, type 2 diabetes, central obesity, and osteoporosis. These patients also have impaired wound healing and brittle skin (Ganong, W. F. Review of Medical Physiology. Eighteenth edition ed. Stamford, Conn.: Appleton & Lange; 1997).
Glucocorticoids have been shown to increase risk of infection and delay healing of open wounds (Anstead, G. M. Steroids, retinoids, and wound healing. Adv Wound Care 1998; 11(6):277-85). Patients treated with glucocorticoids have 2-5-fold increased risk of complications when undergoing surgery (Diethelm, A. G. Surgical management of complications of steroid therapy. Ann Surg 1977; 185(3):251-63).
The European patent application No. EP 0902288 discloses a method for diagnosing the status of wound healing in a patient, comprising detecting cortisol levels in said wound. The authors suggest that elevated levels of cortisol in wound fluid, relative to normal plasma levels in healthy individuals, correlates with large, non-healing wounds (Hutchinson, T. C., Swaniker, H. P., Wound diagnosis by quantitating cortisol in wound fluids. European patent application No. EP 0 902 288, published Mar. 17, 1999).
In humans, the 11β-HSD catalyzes the conversion of cortisol to cortisone, and vice versa. The parallel function of 11β-HSD in rodents is the interconversion of corticosterone and 11-dehydrocorticosterone (Frey, F. J., Escher, G., Frey, B. M. Pharmacology of 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase. Steroids 1994; 59(2):74-9). Two isoenzymes of 11β-HSD, 11β-HSD1 and 11β-HSD2, have been characterized, and differ from each other in function and tissue distribution (Albiston, A. L., Obeyesekere, V. R., Smith, R. E., Krozowski, Z. S. Cloning and tissue distribution of the human 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 2 enzyme. Mol Cell Endocrinol 1994; 105(2):R11-7). Like GR, 11β-HSD1 is expressed in numerous tissues like liver, adipose tissue, adrenal cortex, gonads, lung, pituitary, brain, eye etc (Monder C, White P C. 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase. Vitam Horm 1993; 47:187-271; Stewart, P. M., Krozowski, Z. S. 11 beta-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase. Vitam Horm 1999; 57:249-324; Stokes, J., Noble, J., Brett, L., Phillips, C., Seckl, J. R., O'Brien, C., et al. Distribution of glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid receptors and 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases in human and rat ocular tissues. Invest Opthalmol Vis Sci 2000; 41(7):1629-38). The function of 11β-HSD1 is to fine-tune local glucocorticoid action. 11β-HSD activity has been shown in the skin of humans and rodents, in human fibroblasts and in rat skin pouch tissue (Hammami, M. M., Siiteri, P. K. Regulation of 11 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity in human skin fibroblasts: enzymatic modulation of glucocorticoid action. J Clin Endocrinol Metab 1991; 73(2):326-34); Cooper, M. S., Moore, J., Filer, A., Buckley, C. D., Hewison, M., Stewart, P. M. 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in human fibroblasts: expression and regulation depends on tissue of origin. ENDO 2003 Abstracts 2003; Teelucksingh, S., Mackie, A. D., Burt, D., McIntyre, M. A., Brett, L., Edwards, C. R. Potentiation of hydrocortisone activity in skin by glycyrrhetinic acid. Lancet 1990; 335(8697):1060-3; Slight, S. H., Chilakamarri, V. K., Nasr, S., Dhalla, A. K., Ramires, F. J., Sun, Y., et al. Inhibition of tissue repair by spironolactone: role of mineralocorticoids in fibrous tissue formation. Mol Cell Biochem 1998; 189(1-2):47-54).
Wound healing consists of serial events including inflammation, fibroblast proliferation, secretion of ground substances, collagen production, angiogenesis, wound contraction and epithelialization. It can be divided in three phases; inflammatory, proliferative and remodeling phase (reviewed in Anstead et al., supra).
In surgical patients, treatment with glucocorticoids increases risk of wound infection and delay healing of open wounds. It has been shown in animal models that restraint stress slows down cutaneous wound healing and increases susceptibility to bacterial infection during wound healing. These effects were reversed by treatment with the glucocorticoid receptor antagonist RU486 (Mercado, A. M., Quan, N., Padgett, D. A., Sheridan, J. F., Marucha, P. T. Restraint stress alters the expression of interleukin-1 and keratinocyte growth factor at the wound site: an in situ hybridization study. J Neuroimmunol 2002; 129(1-2):74-83; Rojas, I. G., Padgett, D. A., Sheridan, J. F., Marucha, P. T. Stress-induced susceptibility to bacterial infection during cutaneous wound healing. Brain Behav Immun 2002; 16(1):74-84). Glucocorticoids produce these effects by suppressing inflammation, decrease wound strength, inhibit wound contracture and delay epithelialization (Anstead et al., supra). Glucocorticoids influence wound healing by interfering with production or action of cytokines and growth factors like IGF, TGF-β, EGF, KGF and PDGF (Beer, H. D., Fassler, R., Werner, S. Glucocorticoid-regulated gene expression during cutaneous wound repair. Vitam Horm 2000; 59:217-39; Hamon, G. A., Hunt, T. K., Spencer, E. M. In vivo effects of systemic insulin-like growth factor-I alone and complexed with insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 on corticosteroid suppressed wounds. Growth Regul 1993; 3(1):53-6; Laato, M., Heino, J., Kahari, V. M., Niinikoski, J., Gerdin, B. Epidermal growth factor (EGF) prevents methylprednisolone-induced inhibition of wound healing.

Transforming growth factor beta reverses the glucocorticoid-induced wound-healing deficit in rats: possible regulation in macrophages by platelet-derived growth factor. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 1989; 86(7):2229-33). It has also been shown that glucocorticoids decrease collagen synthesis in rat and mouse skin in vivo and in rat and human fibroblasts (Oishi, Y., Fu, Z. W., Ohnuki, Y., Kato, H., Noguchi, T. Molecular basis of the alteration in skin collagen metabolism in response to in vivo dexamethasone treatment: effects on the synthesis of collagen type I and III, collagenase, and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases. Br J Dermatol 2002; 147(5):859-68).

Other 11β-HSD1 inhibitors are disclosed in e.g. WO 01/90091; WO 01/90092; WO 01/90093; WO 01/90094; WO 03/043999; WO 03/044000; WO 03/044009; U.S. Patent Publication No. 2005/009821; WO 04/103980; WO 04/112784; WO 04/112781; WO 04/112785; WO 04/112783; WO 04/112782; WO 04/113310; WO 04/112779; and Swedish patent application No. SE 0400227-5, filed on Feb. 4, 2004. However, the use of the 11β-HSD1 inhibitors according to the present invention for diabetes, obesity, glaucoma, osteoporosis, cognitive disorders, immune disorders, and wound healing has not previously been disclosed.
Although not disclosed as 11β-HSD1 inhibitors, Okawara et al. disclose the preparation of thiazole-5-spiropropan-4(5H)-ones, see J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans. I, 1733-1735 (1986).

Biological Examples
Scintillation Proximity Assay
[1,2(n)-3H]-cortisone was purchased from Amersham Pharmacia Biotech. Anti-cortisol monoclonal mouse antibody, clone 6D6.7 was obtained from Immunotech and Scintillation proximity assay (SPA) beads coated with monoclonal antimouse antibodies were from Amersham Pharmacia Biotech. NADPH, tetrasodium salt was from Calbiochem and glucose-6-phosphate (G-6-P) was supplied by Sigma. The human 11-β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type-1 enzyme (11-β-HSD1) was expressed in Pichia pastoris. 18-β-glycyrrhetinic acid (GA) was obtained from Sigma. The serial dilutions of the compounds were performed on a Tecan Genesis RSP 150. Compounds to be tested were dissolved in DMSO (1 mM) and diluted in 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.2 containing 1 mM EDTA.
The multiplication of plates was done on a WallacQuadra. The amount of the product [3H]-cortisol, bound to the beads was determined in a Packard, Top Count microplate liquid scintillation counter.
The 11-β-HSD1 enzyme assay was carried out in 96 well microtiter plates (Packard, Optiplate) in a total well volume of 220 μL and contained 30 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.2 with 1 mM EDTA, a substrate mixture tritiated Cortisone/NADPH (175 nM/181 μM), G-6-P (1 mM) and inhibitors in serial dilutions (9 to 0.15 μM). Reactions were initiated by the addition of human 11-β-HSD1, either as Pichia pastoris cell homogenate or microsomes prepared from Pichia pastoris (the final amount of enzyme used was varied between 0.057 to 0.11 mg/mL). Following mixing, the plates were shaken for 30 to 45 minutes at room temperature. The reactions were terminated with 10 μL 1 mM GA stop solution. Monoclonal mouse antibody was then added (10 μL of 4 μM) followed by 100 μL of SPA beads (suspended according to the manufacturers instructions). Appropriate controls were set up by omitting the 11-β-HSD1 to obtain the non-specific binding (NSB) value.
The plates were covered with plastic film and incubated on a shaker for 30 minutes, at room temperature, before counting. The amount of [3H]-cortisol, bound to the beads was determined in a microplate liquid scintillation counter. The calculation of the Ki values for the inhibitors was performed by use of Activity Base. The Ki value is calculated from IC50 and the Km value is calculated using the Cheng Prushoff equation (with reversible inhibition that follows the Michaelis-Menten equation): Ki=IC50(1+[S]/Km) [Cheng, Y. C.; Prushoff, W. H. Biochem. Pharmacol. 1973, 22, 3099-3108]. The IC50 is measured experimentally in an assay wherein the decrease of the turnover of cortisone to cortisol is dependent on the inhibition potential of each substance. The Ki values of the compounds of the present invention for the 11-β-HSD1 enzyme lie typically between about 10 nM and about 10 μM. Below follow some Ki examples according to the present invention.

Cloning, Expression and Purification of 11β-HSD1

The expression and purification of the murine enzyme is described by J. Zhang, et al. Biochemistry, 44, 2005, pp 6948-57. The expression and purification of the human enzyme is similar to that of the murine sequence.
Enzyme Assay
The IC50 and Ki of the compounds are determined by the following method:
1. Prepare an Assay Buffer, (pH 7.2, 50 mM Tris-HCL, 1 mM EDTA) fresh each week.
2. Prepare the following solutions:
NADPH (Sigma, 200 μM)
3H-Cortisone (Amersham Biosciences, 45 Ci/mmol, 200 nM)
Enzyme Prep (20 nM for human, 10 nM for mouse)
Cortisol Antibody (East Coast Biologicals, (1:50 dilution)
Anti-mouse SPA beads (Amersham Biosciences, 15 mg/ml)
18β-Glycyrrhetinic acid (“GA”) (Aldrich, 1 μM)
Compound Stock Solution (10 mM in DMSO), serially diluted in assay buffer. Each compound is tested at six different concentrations usually (10 μM to 0.1 nM). All of the solutions and dilutions are made in the Assay Buffer.
3. Assay is run using white/white, 96-well assay plates (Corning) in a total volume of 100 μL.
4. Into each well of a 96-well plate is added Assay Buffer (30 μL), compound (10 μL) NADPH (10 μL), and 3H-cortisone (10 μL).
5. Initiate reaction by adding 40 μL of HSD-1 enzyme prep to the wells.
6. The plate is covered with tape and incubated on an orbital shaker for 1 h at RT.
7. After 1 h, the tape is removed and anti-cortisol antibody (10 μL), GA solution (10 μL), and SPA bead preparation (100 μL) is added.
8. The plate is incubated (30 min) on an orbital shaker at RT.
9. The counts are read on a TopCount NXT reader.
10. A dose-response curve is first plotted using the Graphpad Prism software, to generate the IC50 values.
With this IC50 value and the known Km value for the substrate and HSD1 enzyme, an estimated Ki can be calculated with the Chen and Prusoff equation {Ki=IC50/[1+(substrate/Km)]}.
In addition to the above examples, the compounds of the present invention all show 11β-HSD1 enzyme activity (IC50) in the assays ranging from 10 nM and 10 μM.

Synthesis Examples




All commercial starting materials are used without any purification.
If the appropriate α-bromocarboxylic acid or ester not is commercially available, the substances has been prepared in accordance to this method:
The 2-amino-carboxylic acid (1.0 eq.) was suspended in 2.0 M H2SO4 (4 eq.), KBr (8 eq.) was added and the mixture was cooled in an ice-bath. NaNO2 (1.3 eq.) dissolved in water was added slowly. The reaction mixture was stirred for 4 h at ice-bath, before allowed to reach room temperature. The reaction mixture was extracted with EtOAc. The organic phase was dried over MgSO4 before concentrated in vacuum. This gave the crude product which was used in the next step without further purification (J. Org. Chem. 2002, 67 (11), 3595-3600; Xinhua Qian; Bin Zheng; Brian Burke; Manohar T. Saindane and David R. Kronenthal).
Methods and Materials

All spectra were recorded using residual solvent or tetramethylsilane (TMS) as internal standard. IR spectra were recorded on a Perkin-Elmer Spectrum 1000 FT-IR spectrometer. Electrospray mass spectrometry (MS) was obtained using an Agilent MSD mass spectrometer. Accurate mass measurements were performed on a Micromass LCT dual probe. Elemental analyses were performed on a Vario El instrument or sent to Mikro Kemi in Uppsala.
Analytical HPLC were performed on Agilent 1100 system equipped with System A: ACE 3 (C8, 50×3.0 mm) or System B: YMC ODS-AQ, (33×3.0 mm) using the eluent system: water/0.1% TFA and CH3CN, 1 mL/min, with a gradient time of 3 min.
Preparative HPLC was performed on a Gilson system equipped with System A: ACE 5 C8 column (50×20 mm) gradient time 5 min, system B: YMC ODS-AQ (150×30 mm) gradient time 8.5 min or system C: YMC ODS-AQ (50×20 mm) gradient time 5 min using the eluent system: water/0.1% TFA and CH3CN. Preparative flash chromatography was performed on Merck silica gel 60 (230-400 mesh).
Synthetic Methodology
Method A or B was used depending if the isothiocyanate or of the corresponding amine was used. The amine or the isothiocyanate was purchased from either Maybridge Plc. or from Sigma-Aldrich Co.
Method A
1.0 eq. of the appropriate isothiocyanate was stirred in 2 M ammonia in ethanol (5 eq.) for 18 h at RT. Evaporation in vacuo afforded the crude product, which crystallized upon addition of DCM. The crystals were collected on a filter and air-dried to afford the thiourea.
Method B
1.0 eq. of the amine and ethoxycarbonylisothiocyanate (1.0 eq) were mixed in a test tube. A violently exothermic reaction resulted in a white paste. This was taken up in 5M KOH solution and stirred at 70° C. for 2 hours at which point LC analysis indicated full hydrolysis of the intermediate. The mixture was cooled, diluted with water and extracted 3 times with chloroform. Subsequent preparative LC yielded the desired thiourea.
Method C
The thiourea (1.0 eq.) and the α-bromoester/α-bromoacid (1.0 eq.) was dissolved in acetone and heated to 60° C. in a sealed tube for 15-72 hours. The solvent was removed. And the product purified by crystallization from MeOH/preparative reverse-phase HPLC.
Method C1
The thiourea (1.0 eq.) and the α-bromoester/α-bromoacid (1.0 eq.) was mixed in water and heated in the microwave at 140° C. for 1 hour. The aqueous phase was extracted twice with DCM. The combined organic phases were evaporated and the obtained crude product was purified by preparative reverse-phase HPLC.
Method D
The thiourea (1.0 eq.) and the α-bromoester (1.0 eq.) was dissolved in 1,4-dioxane and heated to 100° C. in a sealed tube for 1-11 days. The solvent was removed, and the residue was purified by preparative reverse-phase HPLC.
Method D1
The thiourea (1.0 eq.) and the α-bromoester (1.0 eq.) was dissolved in THF and heated to 70° C. in a sealed tube for 1 day. The solvent was removed, and the residue was purified by preparative reverse-phase HPLC.
Method D2
The thiourea (1.0 eq.) and the α-bromoester (1.0 eq.) was dissolved in 2-propanol and heated to 95° C. in a sealed tube for 3 days. The solvent was removed, and the residue was purified by preparative reverse-phase HPLC.
Method D3
The thiourea (1.0 eq.) and the α-bromoester/α-bromoacid (1.0 eq.) was dissolved in MeCN and heated to 60° C. in a sealed tube for 2 days. The solvent was removed, and the residue was purified by preparative reverse-phase HPLC.
Method E
The amino acid (1 eq.) was suspended in 2.0 M H2SO4, KBr (8 eq.) was added and the mixture was cooled in an ice-bath. NaNO2 (1.3 eq.) dissolved in water was slowly added. The reaction mixture was stirred for 4 h while cooling was continued. The reaction mixture was then extracted with EtOAc, washed with brine and brine containing Na2S2O3. The organic phase was concentrated in vacuum. The product was used in the next step without further purification.
Method F
The thiourea (1 eq.) and 3-bromo-2-coumarone (1 eq.) was dissolved in acetone and heated to 60° C. for 3 hours. Water was added. The obtained solid was collected. Recrystallised from water/MeCN. The solid was collected. The mother liquor was concentrated and the obtained solid was dried in vacuum to give the product.
Method G
The carbonate salt of guanidine (1 eq.) and the alpha hydroxy ester (1 eq.) was dissolved in EtOH and heated to reflux for 2-10 hours. The mixture was then poured in to H2O and left at 8° C. for 16 hours. The product was collected by filtration.
Method H
The amino-oxazolone (1 eq.) and the amine (3 eq.) was added to 4 ml EtOH and put in the microwave oven at 130° C. for 30 min. The solvent was removed under vacuum and the products purified by preparative reverse-phase HPLC.
Method I
To an ice-cooled solution with 1 eq. of the thiourea in DCM was 3 eq. 5% NaOH (aq) and 2 eq. dibromobutyryl chloride added followed by a small amount of benzyltriethylammonium chloride. The reaction was allowed to reach rt and additional 5 eq. 5% NaOH (aq) was added. The DCM-layer was separated and washed twice with water, dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The product was isolated by preparative reverse-phase HPLC.
Method J
The acid (1 eq.) was dissolved in SOCl2 and heated to 60° C. for 2 hours. NBS (2 eq.), SOCl2 and 1 drop of HBr (aq) was added at r.t. The reaction was heated to reflux for 75 min. The solvent was removed under vacuum, CCl4 was added and this was filtered. CCl4 was removed under vacuum. The remaining oil was dissolved in EtOH and left for 16 hours at r.t. The solvent was then removed under vacuum. This gave the product as an α-bromoester.

General Methodologies K-PP
Methodologies for Synthesis of Starting Materials: Carboxylic Acids, Esters, Acid Chlorides, Acyl Isothiocyanates




The thioisocyante intermediates can be prepared by the method K. Formation of the acid chloride, such as by treatment with oxalyl chloride and DMF, or thionyl chloride, followed by treatment with KNCS provides the thioisocyantes. Alternatively, treatment of the carboxylic acid with thionyl chloride, then bromination, such as with Br2 and PBr3, followed by treatment with KNCS also provides the thioisocyantes.




Preparation of bromo substituted esters and carboxylic acids is described in Method L. Bromination of the carboxylic acid, such as with Br2, PCl3 (cat.), followed by formation of the acid chloride, such as by treatment with oxalyl chloride or thionyl chloride, and treatment with alcohols, TMSCHN2 or CH2N2, yields the desired compounds. Alternatively, the acid chloride can be formed first, followed by bromination step. Starting from esters, treatment with strong base, e.g. LDA, and a leaving group supplier such as TMSCl, followed by bromination provides the desired esters. Using amino acid starting materials (A═NH2), bromination, such as by reaction with HBr in the presence of NaNO2, yields the desired bromo acids.




Methylation of various substituted acids and esters, such as by treatment with base and an methyl halide, followed by bromination, yields the desired α-bromo-α-methyl compounds.




Conversion of various ketones to the esters is accomplished by Method N. Treatment with an appropriate dithiane, such as 2-trimethylsilyl-1,3-dithiane, in the presence of base, e.g. n-BuLi, followed by chlorination, such as with N-chlorosuccinimide, yields the desired compounds.
Methodologies for Synthesis of Starting Materials: Thioureas and Amines




Formation of the desired thioureas is detailed in Method O. Treatment of amines with BzNCS, followed by deprotection, such as with base, yields the thioureas. Alternatively, the thiourea is formed through treatment with 1,1-thiocarbonyldiimidazole in the presence of base, e.g. NEt3, followed by treatment with ammonia.




Alternatively, the thiourea is formed as described in Method P. Treatment of a substituted thioisocyanate with ammonia yields the desired thioureas.




Preparation of substituted bicyclo[2.2.1]heptane amines is described in the synthetic scheme in shown in Example 97.




Preparation of 1-amino-1-methylethyl benzenes is described in Method R. Methylation of cyanomethylbenzenes, such as with treatment with methyl halides in the presence of non-nucleophilic base, e.g. KHMDS, yields the 1-cyano-1-methylethyl benzenes. Oxidation of the cyano compounds, such as with H2O2, in the presence of base, e.g. K2CO3, yields the amides. Hofmann rearrangement of the amides, such as by treatment with (O2CCF3)2IPh, yields the desired amines.




Bicyclo[2.2.1]heptanyl thioureas are provided via Method S. Bromination of carboxylic acids, such as with Br2, PCl3, and the resulting rearrangement provides the 2-bromo-1-carboxylic acids. Dehalogenation, such as with Zn in AcOH, yields the 1-carboxylic acids. The Curtius rearrangement such as by treatment with DPPA and a base, e.g. NEt3, and an alcohol provides the protected amine. Deprotection, such as with acid, followed by formation of the thiourea and deprotection, as described above, provides the desired thioureas.




Base mediated substitution of a nitrophenol with a alkyl halide, provides the nitophenyl ether. For example Cs2CO3 can be used in the presence of NaI. Reduction of the nitro group, such as with H2 in the presence of a catalyst, e.g. Pd/C, yields the desired amines.




Method U describes the formation of cyclopropanamines from benzonitriles is accomplished by treatment with EtMgBr in the presence of Ti(Oi-Pr)4, followed by treatment with BF3.OEt2.




Formation of bicyclo[2.2.2]octanyl amines is described in Method V. De-esterification of the esters, such as with base, e.g. LiOH, followed the Curtius rearrangement as described previously and deprotection, e.g. acid, provides the desired amines.




Formation of (bicyclo[2.2.1]heptanylmethyl)-thioureas from the carboxylic acids is described in Method W. Formation of the acid chloride, such as by treatment with oxalyl chloride and DMF (cat.), followed by treatment with ammonia or ammonium hydroxide, provides the amide. Reduction of the amide, such as with treatment with LiAlH4, to the amine, followed by chemistry previously described, yields the desired thioureas.
Methodologies for Synthesis of Final Products




Thiazolones can be prepared by many methods, including that described in Method X. Treatment of a bromo-substituted carboxylic acid or ester with thiourea in the presence of base, such as DIEA provides the condensation/ring closure to the desired 2-amino-thiazolones.




Alternatively, as shown in Method Y, treatment of a bromo-substituted carboxylic acid with thiourea in the presence of base, such as NaOAc provides the condensation/ring closure to the desired 2-amino-thiazolones.




Thiazolones also can be prepared from amines by the method described in Method Z. Coupling of an amine with an isothiocyante, e.g. in the presence of base, such as NEt3, provides the condensation/ring closure to the desired 2-amino-thiazolones.




5,5-Disubstituted thiazolones can be prepared from thiazolones via the method described in Method AA. Treatment first with strong base, e.g. LDA or NaHMDS, then with a compound comprising an appropriate leaving group, such as RB-LG, provides the desired compounds.




Similarly, formation of 5-fluoro-thiazolones can be prepared as described in Method BB. Treatment first with strong base, e.g. LDA or NaHMDS, and TMSCl, followed by fluorination, e.g. with Selectfluor, provides the desired compounds.




Similarly, formation of 5-trifluoromethyl-thiazolones can be prepared as described in Method CC. Treatment first with strong base, e.g. LDA or NaHMDS, and TMSCl, followed by trifluoromethylation, e.g. with S-(trifluoromethyl)dibenzothiophenium salt, provides the desired compounds.




Formation of 5-carboxymethyl-thiazolones or the corresponding esters can be prepared as described in Method DD. Coupling of carboxylic acids with a substituted alkene, such as in the presence of DBU, followed by treatment with base, e.g. LiOH, provides the desired compounds.




Formation of 5-spiro-thiazolones can be prepared as described in Method EE. Coupling of the thiazolone in the presence of strong base, e.g. LDA or NaHMDS, provides the desired compounds. Alternatively, the cyclization can be achieved in two steps, alkylation first with base, e.g. HMDS, in the presence of TMSCl; followed by further treatment with base, e.g. LDA, in the presence of a bis-electrophile.




Formation of 5-hydroxymethyl-thiazolones can be prepared as described in Method FF. Treatment of a thiazolone with a ketone in the presence of strong base, e.g. LDA or NaHMDS, provides the desired compounds.




Formation of 5-fluoromethyl-thiazolones can be prepared as described in Method GG. Fluorination of 5-hydroxymethyl-thiazolones e.g. with DAST or Deoxo-Fluor, provides the desired compounds.




The compounds of the invention can be prepared by the method described in this scheme. Alkylation of the racemic thiazalone with a chiral base, such as




where Rm and Rn are independently selected from alkyl, aryl, and heterocyclyl, where Ro and Rp are independently selected from aryl, where J is alkyl, O, NH or S, and where M1 and M2 are independently selected from Li, Na, K, Cs, Cu, Zn, and Mg, e.g. a chiral lithium base, more specifically





and an appropriate alkylating agent, such as a alkyl halide (e.g. an alkyl iodide) or sulfonate (e.g., mesylate, triflate), [LG is halide, tosylate, mesylate, triflate, or the like] provides the desired chiral di-substituted thiazolone. Preferably, the alkylation is performed in the presence of amine base, such as TMEDA. Treatment with the R,R form of the base provides the stereochemistry shown when R3 is methyl. Treatment with the S,S form provides the opposite stereochemistry to that shown when R3 is methyl. The reaction is maintained at a temperature below about RT, preferably below about 0° C., more preferably at or below about −15° C. An aprotic solvent, e.g. toluene is acceptable.





Formation of thiazolone amines and ethers can be prepared as described in Method II. Bromination of thiazolones e.g. with NBS or other techniques known to one skilled in the art, followed by treatment with an amine or alcohol, provides the desired compounds.




Formation of thiazolone amines can be prepared from the alcohols as described in Method JJ. Following the procedure for the Dess-Martin Periodinane or Swern reactions, followed reductive amidation, such as with reacting with an amine together with NaBH(OAc)3 or NaBH3CN, provides the desired compounds.




Alternatively, formation of 5-spiro-thiazolones can be prepared from the furanone as described in Method KK. Treatment of the furanone with a thiourea provides thiazolone alcohol. Protection of the alcohol, such as with dihydropyran in the presence of acid, followed by treatment with strong base, e.g. LDA, and 3-bromo-2-methylprop-1-ene, and deprotection, e.g. with PTSA, and cyclization, such as with acid, provides the desired compounds.




Further, formation of 5-spiro-thiazolones can be prepared from the thiazolone as described in Method LL. Treatment of the thiazolone with strong base, e.g. LDA or NaHMDS and alkylation, such as with (2-bromoethoxy)(tert-butyl)dimethylsilane provides the protected thiazolone alcohol. A subsequent round of base and silane provides the disubstituted thiazolone. Deprotection, e.g. with acid, followed with addition of a compound containing an appropriate leaving group, e.g. MsCl, in the presence of base, e.g. DIEA, and cyclization, such as with a substituted amine, provides the desired spiro piperidine compounds.




1-Substituted piperidinemethylthiazolones can be prepared by method MM. After deprotection, such as by treatment with acid, treatment with sulfonyl chlorides (R12SO2Cl) in the presence of base, e.g. NEt3, provides compounds where RQ═SO2RS. Alternatively, after deprotection, treatment with carboxylic acid (RRCO2H) with standard coupling chemistry, e.g. EDCI, and HOBt, provides compounds where RQ ═CORR. Alternatively, after deprotection, treatment with active carbonyl compounds, e.g. acid anhydrides (RRCO—O—CORR) in the presence of base, e.g. DIEA, provides compounds where RQ═CORR.




Formation of 5-spiro-thiazolones can be prepared from the thiazolone as described in Method NN. Treatment of the thiazolone with strong base, e.g. LDA and alkylation, such as with BrCH2CH2Br provides the thiazolone bromoethyl compound. Further treatment with strong base, e.g. LDA, and dimethylketone, provides the desired spiro tetrahydrofuryl compounds.




Substituted amidomethylthiazolones can be prepared by method OO. Treatment of a substituted thioureas and with active carbonyl compounds, e.g. maleic anhydride in the presence of acid, e.g. AcOH, provides the thiazolone carboxylic acids. Treatment of the acid with an amine, such as in the presence of a coupling reagent, e.g. HATU and base such as DIEA provides the desired amides.




Substituted thiazolone esters can be prepared from the alcohol by method PP. Treatment of an alcohol-substituted thiourea with active carbonyl compounds, e.g. an acid chloride, in the presence of base, e.g. DIEA, provides the desired esters. Separation Methods
Many of the final compounds were separated by two main chromatographic methods. Normal phase liquid chromatography (NPLC) and supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) were the two techniques utilized. NPLC was performed with Chiralpak AD/AD-H and Chiralcel OJ-H columns. The mobile phase consisted of hexane (0.2% diethylamine (DEA)) and/or methanol, ethanol (0.2% DEA), or isopropanol (0.2% DEA). All separations were conducted at ambient temperatures. Columns used with SFC were the Chiralpak AD-H and AS-H, the Chiralcel OD-H, and the Astec (R,R) P-CAP. The mobile phased was comprised of liquid carbon dioxide and an organic modifier such as methanol (with or without 0.2% DEA), ethanol (with or without 0.2% DEA), isopropanol (with or without 0.2% DEA), or acetonitrile (with or without 0.2% DEA). Organic modifiers were used individually with liquid carbon dioxide or in combinations with each other and the liquid carbon dioxide. Column/oven temperature was between 35 and 40° C., and the outlet pressure was either 100 or 120 bar.

Example 80
(S)-2-Bromo-3-methylbutanoic acid




A 2 L jacketed reactor was charged with toluene (150 mL), water (150 mL) and 48% hydrobromic acid (260 mL, 2.30 mol). To this stirred, two-phase solution at 0° C., was added L-valine (96.2 g, 0.82 mol) in one portion (a mild exotherm was observed, temperature rose to 3.5° C.). The mixture was further cooled to −5° C., whereupon an aqueous solution of sodium nitrite (73.7 g, 1.07 mol) was added drop-wise over 6 h. The solution turned dark brown. Once the sodium nitrite was completely added, the reaction mixture was stirred for an additional 3 h at −5° C. Then, the reaction mixture was diluted with toluene (250 mL), warmed to 20° C., and stirred for 12 h. The organic layer was separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with toluene (300 mL). The toluene layers were combined and washed with a 20% sodium thiosulfate solution (200 mL) (virtually all color disappeared) followed by a 20% NaCl solution (200 mL). The organic layer was separated, and the solvent was concentrated in vacuo, and then placed on the high vacuum pump for 4 h to afford the title compound (107 g) as a pale yellow crystalline solid. MS (ESI, pos. ion) m/z: 179.1/180.9.

This solution was heated to reflux during which time gas evolution occurred. After 1 h at 80° C., bromine (7.03 g, 2.25 mL, 0.044 mol) and phosphorus tribromide (0.350 mL) were added. The reaction temperature was maintained at 80° C. until the color faded from dark red to a light pink ( ̃2 h) after which time MeOH (5.0 mL) was added, and the reaction mixture was refluxed for 30 min more. After cooling to room temperature, sodium thiosulfate was added, the suspension was filtered, and then concentrated in vacuo to provide the title compound.

This mixture was heated at reflux for 12 h, after which time the MeOH was removed in vacuo. The remaining residue was dissolved in EtOAc, washed with saturated aqueous NaHCO3, dried, and concentrated in vacuo to give the desired methyl ester. This compound was used directly in the next step without further purification.
To a dry 250 mL round-bottomed flask was added 2.20 g of methyl 2-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)acetate (0.014 mol) and 100 mL of dry THF. This solution was cooled to −78° C. and LDA (2.0 M in THF/heptane/ethyl benzene, 10.4 mL, 0.021 mol) was added. The resulting brown solution was stirred at −78° C. for 45 min. TMSCl (3.22 g, 3.5 mL, 0.028 mol) was then added at −78° C., and the reaction mixture was then warmed to room temperature. After being re-cooled to −78° C., N-bromosuccinimide (4.94 g, 0.028 mol) was added to the reaction mixture, and the resulting suspension was allowed to slowly warm to room temperature where it continued to stir for an additional 1.5 h. The suspension was then filtered thru a pad of SiO2 using diethyl ether as the eluant. Purification of the filtrate by column chromatography (SiO2 gel, 10:1 to 4:1 hexanes/ethyl acetate) delivered the desired α-bromo ester, which was used in subsequent steps without further purification.

Example 174
5-(4-Bromobutyl)-2-(cycloheptylamino)-5-methyl-1,3-thiazol-4(5H)-one




To a continuous N2-flushed solution of 2-(cycloheptylamino)-5-methyl-1,3-thiazol-4(5H)-one hydrobromide (500 mg, 2.2 mmol) in dry THF (50 mL) was added lithium diisopropylamide (4.4 mL of a 2M solution in THF/heptane/ethyl benzene, 8.8 mmol) at −78° C. The resulting brown solution was allowed to stir 1 h at this temperature after which time 1,4-dibromobutane (2.1 mL, 17.7 mmol) was added and the solution allowed to warm to −30° C. After 1 h at this temperature, the reaction was quenched with 6 mL 2/1 MeOH/HOAc and allowed to stir overnight at rt. A saturated solution of aq. NaHCO3 was added and the product was extracted with EtOAc and then purified on SiO2 (gradient 4/1-1/1 hex/EtOAc) to give the bromide as a white solid. Yield 227 mg.
