                    (CH2)1-3—CO2H,

        In an eighth embodiment, the invention relates to a compound of the structure
    
    






    
    
        wherein
        R1 represents H;
        R2 represents —NH2;
        L represents O;
        M is CH
        n is 1;
        n′ is 0, 1, or 2;
        G is a moiety selected from the group consisting of methyl and trifluromethyl;
        G′ is a moiety selected from the group consisting of methyl and amino;

        Y is phenyl, pyridyl or pyrimidyl;
        or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
    
    


Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of these compounds as well as commonly used prodrugs of these compounds such as, for example, O-acyl derivatives of invention compounds which contain hydroxy groups, ester derivatives of invention compounds which contain carboxyl groups, and amide derivatives of invention compounds which contain amino groups, are also within the scope of the invention.
It is to be understood that:
1) in compounds of the invention in which an alkyl moiety may bear substituents such as amino, hydroxyl, alkoxy, and halogen groups, a single carbon atom of this alkyl moiety may not simultaneously bear two groups independently selected from amino, hydroxyl, and alkoxy; and where this alkyl moiety bears a halogen, it may not simultaneously also bear an amino, hydroxyl, or alkoxy substituent.
2) in compounds of the invention in which any moiety is defined in terms of a numerical range of atoms and this moiety is further permitted to bear up to a certain number of substituents, if the total number of substituents possible exceeds the number of valences available for moieties at the lower end of the defined numerical range of atoms, then the number of substituents is limited to the number of available valences. For example, if a (C1-C3)alkyl moiety if defined as optionally bearing up to three halogens and up to two other defined substituents, this means that a C1-alkyl group could bear up to three substituents (the number of available valences), all of which could be halogen, but no more than two of which could be other defined substituent groups.
The compounds of Formula (I) may contain one or more asymmetric centers, depending upon the location and nature of the various substituents desired. Asymmetric carbon atoms may be present in the (R) or (S) configuration. Preferred isomers are those with the absolute configuration which produces the compound of Formula (I) with the more desirable biological activity. In certain instances, asymmetry may also be present due to restricted rotation about a given bond, for example, the central bond adjoining two aromatic rings of the specified compounds.
It is intended that all isomers (including enantiomers and diastereomers), either by nature of asymmetric centers or by restricted rotation as described above, as separated, pure or partially purified isomers or racemic mixtures thereof, be included within the scope of the instant invention. The purification of said isomers and the separation of said isomeric mixtures may be accomplished by standard techniques known in the art.
The terms identified above have the following meaning throughout:
The term “optionally substituted” means that the moiety so modified may have from none to up to at least the highest number of substituents indicated. The substituent may replace any H atom on the moiety so modified as long as the replacement is chemically possible and chemically stable. When there are two or more substituents on any moiety, each substituent is chosen independently of any other substituent and can, accordingly, be the same or different.
The term “halogen” means an atom selected from Cl, Br, F, and I.
The terms “(C1-C2)alkyl,” “(C1-C3)alkyl” “(C1-C4)alkyl” “(C1-C5)alkyl,” and “(C1-C6)alkyl” mean linear or branched saturated carbon groups having from about 1 to about 2, about 3, about 4, about 5 or about 6 C atoms, respectively. Such groups include, but are not limited to, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, sec-butyl, n-hexyl, and the like.
The term “alkylenyl” means a divalent linear or branched saturated carbon chain, usually having from about 1 to about 3 carbon atoms in this application. Such chains include, but are not limited to methylene (—CH2—), ethylenyl (—CH2CH2)—, and propylenyl (—CH2CH2CH2—) and the like.
The term “(C3-C6)cycloalkyl” means a saturated monocyclic alkyl group of from about 3 to about 6 carbon atoms and includes such groups as cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, and the like.

The utility of the compounds of the present invention can be illustrated, for example, by their activity in vitro in the in vitro tumor cell proliferation assay described below. The link between activity in tumor cell proliferation assays in vitro and anti-tumor activity in the clinical setting has been well established in the art. For example, the therapeutic utility of taxol (Silvestrini et al. Stem Cells 1993, 11(6), 528-35), taxotere (Bissery et al. Anti Cancer Drugs 1995, 6(3), 339), and topoisomerase inhibitors (Edelman et al. Cancer Chemother. Pharmacol. 1996, 37(5), 385-93) was demonstrated with the use of in vitro tumor proliferation assays.
In this application, where the plural form is used for compounds, salts, and the like, this is taken to mean also a single compound, salt, or the like.
Salts are especially the pharmaceutically acceptable salts of compounds of formula I such as, for example, acid addition salts, preferably with organic or inorganic acids, from compounds of formula I with a basic nitrogen atom. Suitable inorganic acids are, for example, halogen acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, or phosphoric acid. Suitable organic acids are, for example, carboxylic, phosphonic, sulfonic, or sulfamic acids, for example acetic acid, propionic acid, octanoic acid, decanoic acid, dodecanoic acid, glycolic acid, lactic acid, -hydroxybutyric acid, gluconic acid, glucosemonocarboxylic acid, fumaric acid, succinic acid, adipic acid, pimelic acid, suberic acid, azeiaic acid, malic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, glucaric acid, galactaric acid, amino acids, such as glutamic acid, aspartic acid, N-methylglycine, acetytaminoacetic acid, N-acetylasparagine or N-acetylcysteine, pyruvic acid, acetoacetic acid, phosphoserine, 2- or 3-glycerophosphoric acid.
The compounds of the invention may be administered orally, dermally, parenterally, by injection, by inhalation or spray, or sublingually, rectally or vaginally in dosage unit formulations. The term ‘administered by injection’ includes intravenous, intraarticular, intramuscular, subcutaneous and parenteral injections, as well as use of infusion techniques. Dermal administration may include topical application or transdermal administration. One or more compounds may be present in association with one or more non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable carriers and if desired, other active ingredients.
Compositions intended for oral use may be prepared according to any suitable method known to the art for the manufacture of pharmaceutical compositions. Such compositions may contain one or more agents selected from the group consisting of diluents, sweetening agents, flavoring agents, coloring agents and preserving agents in order to provide 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, corn starch, or alginic acid; and binding agents, for example magnesium stearate, stearic acid or talc. The tablets may be uncoated or they may be coated by known techniques to delay disintegration and adsorption in the gastrointestinal tract and thereby provide a sustained action over a longer period. For example, a time delay material such as glyceryl monostearate or glyceryl distearate may be employed. These compounds may also be prepared in solid, rapidly released form.
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 or an oil medium, for example peanut oil, liquid paraffin or olive oil.
Aqueous suspensions containing the active materials in admixture with excipients suitable for the manufacture of aqueous suspensions may also be used. Such excipients are suspending agents, for example sodium carboxymethylcellulose, methylcellulose, hydroxypropyl-methylcellulose, sodium alginate, polyvinylpyrrolidone, 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 heptadecaethyleneoxycetanol, or condensation products of ethylene oxide with partial esters derived from fatty acids and 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 or saccharin.
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.
The compounds may also be in the form of non-aqueous liquid formulations, e.g., oily suspensions which may be formulated by suspending the active ingredients in a vegetable oil, for example arachis oil, olive oil, sesame oil or peanut oil, or in a 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 palatable oral preparations. These compositions may be preserved by the addition of an anti-oxidant such as ascorbic acid.
Pharmaceutical compositions of the invention may also be in the form of oil-in-water emulsions. The oil 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 gums, for example gum acacia or gum tragacanth, 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 and flavoring agents.
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 and flavoring and coloring agents.
The compounds may also be administered in the form of suppositories for rectal or vaginal 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 or vaginal temperature and will therefore melt in the rectum or vagina to release the drug. Such materials include cocoa butter and polyethylene glycols.
Compounds of the invention may also be administered transdermally using methods known to those skilled in the art (see, for example: Chien; “Transdermal Controlled Systemic Medications”; Marcel Dekker, Inc.; 1987. Lipp et al. WO 94/04157 3 Mar. 94). For example, a solution or suspension of a compound of Formula I in a suitable volatile solvent optionally containing penetration enhancing agents can be combined with additional additives known to those skilled in the art, such as matrix materials and bacteriocides. After sterilization, the resulting mixture can be formulated following known procedures into dosage forms. In addition, on treatment with emulsifying agents and water, a solution or suspension of a compound of Formula I may be formulated into a lotion or salve.
Suitable solvents for processing transdermal delivery systems are known to those skilled in the art, and include lower alcohols such as ethanol or isopropyl alcohol, lower ketones such as acetone, lower carboxylic acid esters such as ethyl acetate, polar ethers such as tetrahydrofuran, lower hydrocarbons such as hexane, cyclohexane or benzene, or halogenated hydrocarbons such as dichloromethane, chloroform, trichlorotrifluoroethane, or trichlorofluoroethane.

It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the particular method of administration will depend on a variety of factors, all of which are considered routinely when administering therapeutics. It will also be understood, however, that the specific dose level for any given patient will depend upon a variety of factors, including, but not limited to the activity of the specific compound employed, the age of the patient, the body weight of the patient, the general health of the patient, the gender of the patient, the diet of the patient, time of administration, route of administration, rate of excretion, drug combinations, and the severity of the condition undergoing therapy. It will be further appreciated by one skilled in the art that the optimal course of treatment, i.e., the mode of treatment and the daily number of doses of a compound of Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof given for a defined number of days, can be ascertained by those skilled in the art using conventional treatment tests.

General Preparative Methods
The compounds of the invention have the general chemical structure shown below and may be prepared by the use of known chemical reactions and procedures. The particular process to be utilized in the preparation of the compounds of this invention depends upon the specific compound desired. Such factors as the selection of the specific J and Y moieties, as well as the specific substituents possible at various locations on the molecule, all play a role in the path to be followed in the preparation of the specific compounds of this invention. Those factors are readily recognized by one skilled in the art.
Nevertheless, the following general preparative methods are presented to aid the reader in synthesizing the compounds of the invention, with more detailed particular examples being presented below in the experimental section describing the working examples.




All variable groups of these methods are as described in the generic description if they are not specifically defined below. When a variable group or substituent with a given symbol (i.e. G, G′, M) is used more than once in a given structure, it is to be understood that each of these groups or substituents may be independently varied within the range of definitions for that symbol.
Within these general methods the variable Z is equivalent to the moiety




in which each variable group or substituent is allowed to vary independently within the limits defined for that symbol.

Within these general methods the variable E is equivalent to the moiety




in which each variable group or substituent is allowed to vary independently within the limits defined for that symbol.

It is recognized that compounds of the invention with each claimed optional functional group cannot be prepared with each of the below-listed methods. Within the scope of each method optional substituents are used which are stable to the reaction conditions, or the functional groups which may participate in the reactions are present in protected form where necessary, and the removal of such protective groups is completed at appropriate stages by methods well known to those skilled in the art.
Additional compounds of formula (I) may be prepared from other formula (I) compounds by elaboration of functional groups present. Such elaboration includes, but is not limited to, hydrolysis, reduction, oxidation, alkylation, acylation, esterification, amidation and dehydration reactions. Such transformations may in some instances require the use of protecting groups by the methods disclosed in T. W. Greene and P. G. M. Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis; Wiley: New York, (1999), and incorporated herein by reference. Such methods would be initiated after synthesis of the desired compound or at another place in the synthetic route that would be readily apparent to one skilled in the art.
General Method A—Invention compounds of formula 5 in which Z and E are as defined above, may be conveniently prepared according to a reaction sequence as shown in General Method “A”. Thus, amidine or guanidine 1 and β-ketoester 2 are either obtained from commercial sources or made by one skilled in the art according to published procedures (amidine 1: Granik et al Russ Chem. Rev. 1983, 52, 377-393; β-ketoester 2: Tabuchi, H. et al. Synlett 1993, (9), 651-2). Amidine or guanidine 1 is treated with β-ketoester 2 in a refluxing mixed solvent such as alcohol and toluene or benzene to furnish pyrimidinone intermediate 3. The alcohol is typically a lower molecular weight alcohol such as ethanol, isopropanol, n-propanol, n-butanol, iso-butanol, or t-butanol. Compound 3 is treated with a chlorinating agent such as phosphorous oxychloride, thionyl chloride or phosphorous pentachloride to yield chloropyrimidine intermediate 4. Intermediate 4 is reacted with a nucleophile of formula NHR1Z in a refluxing solvent such as alcohol, water, DMF, DMA, acetonitrile, acetone, dioxane or DMSO to furnish the invention compound of formula 5 [formula (I), where R2a is H]. Such reactions can also be done in a melt free of solvent or in a solvent catalyzed by acids such as HCl, H2SO4 or bases such as but not limited to triethylamine, Cs2CO3, K2CO3, Na2CO3, K3PO4, Na3PO4, NaOH, KOH, NaH, NaNH2, KNH2, or a sodium or potassium alkoxide or 1,8-diazobicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU). Invention compounds of formula 5a [(I) where R2a is Cl, Br or I] can be prepared from compounds of formula 5 by halogenation with Cl2, Br2, or 12. Invention compounds of formula 5a [(I) where R2a is F] can be prepared from the formula (I) compounds where R2a is Cl, Br or I by a nucleophilic substitution reaction using a fluoride source, e.g., KF.




General Method B—Compounds of formula 5 in which R1, R2, Z and E are as previously defined can also be prepared via an alternative reaction sequence outlined in General Method “B” below. Thus, dichloropyrimidine 8, which is either commercially available or can be made by one skilled in the art according to published procedures (Bagli, J. et al, J. Med. Chem. 1988, 31(4), 814-23), is reacted with a nucleophile of formula NHR1Z in a solvent such as alcohol, water, DMF or DMSO to furnish intermediate 9. Such condensations can also be done in a solvent catalyzed by acids such as HCl, H2SO4 or an aforementioned base. Compound 9 is reacted with a boronic acid or ester of formula E-B(OR′)2 where R′ is H, alkyl or two R′ may form a ring, under standard Suzuki coupling conditions (such as Pd(PPh3)4 or PdCl2(dppf).CH2Cl2/base/solvent) to provide invention compound 5.




General Method C—Invention compounds of formula 5 in which R1, R2 and E are as defined above, and Z, L′ are defined below can also be prepared via an alternative reaction sequence outlined in General Method “C” below. Thus, intermediate 4 is reacted with a nucleophile of formula 6 using aforementioned conditions (General Method A) to furnish intermediate 10. Compound 10 is treated with an aromatic intermediate of formula 7 in an aprotic solvent and base (such as bases in General Method A) to furnish invention compounds of formula 5.




General Method D—Invention compounds of formula 13 in which R1, R2 and Z are as defined above, and RD is G2, G12, G23, G24, G30, or benzyl can also be prepared via a reaction sequence as shown in General Method “D” below. Thus, demethylation of intermediate 11 (General method A or B or C) employing standard conditions (such as BBr3, Me3SiI, AlCl3/EtSH etc.) provides intermediate 12. Subsequently, compound 12 can then undergo alkylation, acylation, or sulfamylation to introduce the RD substituent and provide the compound of formula 13. Standard reaction conditions for these transformations can be used, i.e., a reagent of formula RD-halo in the presence a base. In addition, O-alkylation can be accomplished using a Mitsunobu reaction (i.e., DEAD/PPh3) to provide invention compound 13 where RD is alkyl.




General Method E—Invention compounds of formula 16 and 17 in which R1, R2, G, G′′, m, n, and E are as defined above, and M′ is CH or N, can be prepared via a reaction sequence as shown in General Method “E” below. Thus, the cyano group of intermediate 14 can be hydrolyzed and the resulting carboxylic acid can be coupled with an amine such as NHR28R29, a piperdine, or morpholine, under standard conditions to provide compound 16 where GE-1 is G21, G25 or G26. Invention compound 17 can be prepared by reduction of the amide 16 with LiAlH4 or BH3, followed by optional sulfonylation or acylation. Alternatively, compound 17 can be prepared by alkylation or reductive amination of amine 15, which is prepared by reduction of 14 by a reducing agent such as H2/Pd on C in acetic acid.




General Method F—Invention compounds of formula 17b can be prepared by displacement of the halo substituent on the compound of formula 17a with a sulfur, nitrogen or oxygen nucleophile, represented by GF-1-H, e.g., a thiol, ammonia, a mono or dialkylamine, water or an optionally substituted alcohol, in the optional presence of a base such as triethylamine, Cs2CO3, K2CO3, Na2CO3, K3PO4, Na3PO4, NaOH, KOH, NaH, NaNH2, KNH2, or a sodium or potassium alkoxide or 1,8-diazobicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU). Thus are prepared compounds of formula (I) in which GF-1 is selected from G2, G3, G8, G16, G17, G22, G23, and G24. In addition, compounds of formula 17c may be prepared by acylation or sulfonylation of the compounds of formula 17b where at least one H may be replaced, using appropriate reagents such as acyl halides or alkylsulfonyl halides, generally in the presence of a base. Thus are prepared compounds of formula (I) in which GF-2 is selected from G12, G29, G30 and G31.




General Methods (a-e) for Preparation of Intermediate NHR1Z
Method a—The compounds of formula 18 in which M, G, G′′, m and n are as defined above, M′ is independently CH or N, and L′ is O or NR5 can be conveniently prepared as shown in Method a below. Generally, the intermediate 18 may be prepared by an aromatic substitution reaction of intermediate 7 and intermediate 6. Thus, aniline or aminopyridine 6 is treated with an aromatic intermediate of formula 7 in an aprotic solvent such as DMF, DMA, acetonitrile, acetone, dioxane or DMSO and base to furnish the intermediate of formula 18 (when X=OTf, OMs, OTs see ref. Sammes, P. et al. J. Chem. Soc. Perkin Trans 1, 1988, (12), 3229-31). Compounds of formula 18a can be obtained through reductive amination of 18 with an aldehyde under reductive amination conditions such as NaBH4, NaBH3CN, or NaBH(OAc)3.




Method b—Alternatively, compounds of formula 18b, in which M, G, G′′, m and n are as defined above, M′ is independently CH or N, and L′ is O, NR5 or CH2, can be conveniently prepared as shown in Method b below. Thus, the aromatic intermediate of formula 20 is deprotonated with an aforementioned base or LDA, n-BuLi, t-BuLi in an aprotic solvent, followed by reaction with intermediate 19 to furnish the intermediate of formula 21. The nitro group of compound 21 can be reduced by one skilled in the art according to published procedures such as catalytic hydrogenation, Fe/HOAc and SnCl2 to provide intermediate 18b.




Method c The 4-substituted aniline compound of formula 25, 26 and 27 in which G, G′′, m and n are as defined above, P′ is a protecting group, M′ is independently CH or N, and R6 is H or (C1-C3)alkyl can be prepared via a reaction sequence as outlined in Method c below. Thus, intermediate 22 is treated with acyl chloride 23 under Friedel-Crafts acylation conditions (Lewis acid such as AlCl3) to furnish the intermediate of formula 24. Compound 24 can be converted to aniline 25 by Grignard reaction with R6MgBr or reduction with LiAlH4 followed by deprotection. Aniline 26 can be obtained by reduction of the carbonyl group of 24 by methods such as but not limited to N2H4/OH−, Pd/C/H2, Et3SiH/Lewis acid, or NaBH4/Lewis acid (see ref. Ono, A. et al, Synthesis, 1987, (8), 736-8) or alternatively by formation of a dithiane and subsequent desulfuration with Raney Nickel. In some instances, deprotection of aniline may be necessary to obtain 26. By deprotection of the amino group of compound 24, the aniline intermediate 27 can also be obtained.




Method d The 3-substituted aniline compounds 30, 30a and 31 in which G, G′′, m and n are as defined above, M′ is independently CH or N, and R6 is H or (C1-C3)alkyl can be prepared conveniently via a reaction sequence as shown in Method d below. Thus, nitration of intermediate 28 employing standard nitration conditions such as but not limited to HNO3/H2SO4, or NaNO3/HCl furnishes intermediate 29. Reduction of 29 with a reducing agent such as SnCl2, Fe/HOAc, or catalytic hydrogenation provides aniline 30. Additionally, compound 29 can be converted to aniline 30 a by treatment with R6MgBr or reduction with LiAlH4 followed by the above-mentioned reduction conditions. Aniline 31 can be obtained by reduction of the carbonyl group by a method such as but not limited to N2H4/NaOH, Pd—C/H2, Et3SiH/Lewis acid, or NaBH4/Lewis acid (see ref. Ono, A. et al, Synthesis, 1987, (8), 736-8) or alternatively by formation of dithiane and subsequent desulfuration with Raney Nickel. In some instances, reduction of the nitro group by an aforementioned method may be necessary to obtain aniline 31.




Method e The compounds of formula 36 and 37 in which M, G, G′′, m, n, R10 and R11 are as defined above and Re is G2, G16, G23, and G24, can be prepared conveniently via a reaction sequence as shown in Method e below. Thus, intermediate pyridine 32 is oxidized by a reagent such as m-CPBA, H2O2, CH3C(O)OOH, or CF3C(O)OOH to the N-oxide, followed by chlorination with a chlorinating agent such as phosphorous oxychloride, thionyl chloride or phosphorous pentachloride to yield chloropyridine 33. Compound 33 can be converted to aniline 36 by treatment with alcohol in the presence of base such as NaH, followed by reduction of the nitro group with a reducing agent such as SnCl2, Fe/H+, or catalytic hydrogenation. Treatment of compound 33 with amine HNR10R11 followed by reduction of the nitro group of resulting compound 34 with the above mentioned reagents provides compound 37.

General Analytical Procedures
The structure of representative compounds of this invention were confirmed using the following procedures.
Electron impact mass spectra (EI-MS) were obtained with a Hewlett Packard 5989A mass spectrometer equipped with a Hewlett Packard 5890 Gas Chromatograph with a J & W DB-5 column (0.25 uM coating; 30 m×0.25 mm). The ion source was maintained at 250° C. and spectra were scanned from 50-800 amu at 2 sec per scan.
High pressure liquid chromatography-electrospray mass spectra (LC-MS) were obtained using either a:
(A) Hewlett-Packard 1100 HPLC equipped with a quaternary pump, a variable wavelength detector set at 254 nm, a YMC pro C-18 column (2×23 mm, 120A), and a Finnigan LCQ ion trap mass spectrometer with electrospray ionization. Spectra were scanned from 120-1200 amu using a variable ion time according to the number of ions in the source. The eluents were A: 2% acetonitrile in water with 0.02% TFA and B: 2% water in acetonitrile with 0.018% TFA. Gradient elution from 10% B to 95% over 3.5 min at a flowrate of 1.0 mL/min is used with an initial hold of 0.5 min and a final hold at 95% B of 0.5 min. Total run time is 6.5 min.
or
(B) Gilson HPLC system equipped with two Gilson 306 pumps, a Gilson 215 Autosampler, a Gilson diode array detector, a YMC Pro C-18 column (2×23 mm, 120 A), and a Micromass LCZ single quadrupole mass spectrometer with z-spray electrospray ionization. Spectra were scanned from 120-800 amu over 1.5 seconds. ELSD (Evaporative Light Scattering Detector) data is also acquired as an analog channel. The eluents were either A: 2% acetonitrile in water with 0.02% TFA or B: 2% water in acetonitrile with 0.018% TFA. Gradient elution from 10% B to 90% over 3.5 min at a flowrate of 1.5 mL/min is used with an initial hold of 0.5 min and a final hold at 90% B of 0.5 min. Total run time is 4.8 min. An extra switching valve is used for column switching and regeneration.
Routine one-dimensional NMR spectroscopy is performed on 400 MHz Varian Mercury-plus spectrometers. The samples were dissolved in deuterated solvents obtained from Cambridge Isotope Labs, and transferred to 5 mm ID Wilmad NMR tubes. The spectra were acquired at 293 K. The chemical shifts were recorded on the ppm scale and were referenced to the appropriate solvent signals, such as 2.49 ppm for DMSO-d6, 1.93 ppm for CD3CN-d3, 3.30 ppm for CD3OD 5.32 ppm for CD2Cl2-d2 and 7.26 ppm for CHCl3-d for 1H spectra.

A suspension of guanidine carbonate (3.60 g, 20 mmol) in ethanol (120 mL) and toluene (20 mL) was refluxed under nitrogen for 1 h, during which time about 50 mL of solvent was removed by distillation. After the mixture was cooled to 45° C., ethyl 3-oxo-3-phenylpropanoate (7.68 g, 40 mmol) was added and the solution was heated at reflux overnight. The desired product precipitated as a white solid during the reaction. Water (50 mL) was added to the reaction and the mixture was refluxed for an additional 30 min. After cooling to rt, the mixture was neutralized with 1N HCl and placed in the refrigerator for 6 h. The solid was filtered, washed with water followed by ether and dried at 60° C. under vacuum to give the product as white solid (6.45 g, 86%).

Example 57
Preparation of 4-[2-amino-6-({4-[(2-chloropyridin-4-yl)oxy]phenyl} amino) pyrimidin-4-yl]phenol




Step 1: Preparation of 4-(2-amino-6-chloropyrimidin-4-yl)phenyl tert-butyl carbonate




To a mixture of 2-amino-4,6-dichloropyrimidine (1.5 g, 9.15 mmol), t-butyl-4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenyl carbonate (2.9 g, 9.15 mmol), PdCl2dppf CH2Cl2 complex (0.45 g, 0.55 mmol), and DME (14 mL) was added a solution of potassium carbonate (3.2 g, 22.9 mmol) in water (4 mL). The mixture was then degassed, flushed with nitrogen and heated at 80° C. overnight. The organic layer was separated, washed with water and brine, dried over magnesium sulfate, and evaporated. The residue was purified by column (2% MeOH:50% hexane:48% EtOAc) to afford 0.64 g (22%) desired product. MS ES 322 (M+H)+, calcd 322, RT=3.37 min.

N4-{4-[(2-chloropyridin-4-yl)oxy]phenyl}-6-phenylpyrimidine-2,4-diamine (0.10 g, 0.26 mmol, Example 48), K2CO3 (0.089 g, 0.64 mmol), and DMA (2.5 mL) were placed into a small microwave vial. The mixture was degassed for 10 min before (3E)-4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)but-3-en-1-ol (0.10 g, 0.33 mmol) and Pd(dppf)Cl2 CH2Cl2 complex (0.012 g, 0.020 mmol) were added. The mixture was heated at 150° C. for 20 min in a microwave reactor. The mixture was cooled, filtered, and purified by prep-HPLC. Concentration of the desired fractions gave 0.016 g of the title compound (10%). MS ES: 426 (M+H)+, calcd 426, RT=1.90 min.
Example 59
Preparation of (4-{4-[(2-amino-6-phenylpyrimidin-4-yl)amino] phenoxy} pyridin-2-yl)methanol trifluoroacetate)




To a cloudy solution of 4-{4-[(2-amino-6-phenylpyrimidin-4-yl)amino] phenoxy} pyridine-2-carboxylic acid (748 mg, 1.87 mmol, Example 20) in anhydrous DMF (50 mL) at rt was added carbonyldiimidazole (456 mg, 2.81 mmol). The white suspension was stirred at 80° C. overnight, concentrated to a volume of 10 mL, and diluted with anhydrous THF (7 mL). The reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C. and water (10 mL) was added. The mixture was vigorously stirred as NaBH4 (142 mg, 3.75 mmol) was added and was allowed to warm from 0° C. to rt over 2 h before it was quenched with conc. HCl (1 mL) in an ice bath. After stirring for 15 min, the mixture was slowly added to a stirred solution of sat. NaHCO3 (20 mL) at 0° C. After stirring for 30 min, it was extracted with EtOAc (3×100 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated to give an off-white gum (420 mg, 85% pure). The crude material (100 mg) was purified by prep HPLC purification to give 37 mg (40% yield) of the title compound as a colorless gum. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 10.8 (s, 1H), 8.55 (d, 1H), 7.90 (m, 2H), 7.75 (m, 2H), 7.60 (m, 3H), 7.35 (d, 2H), 7.20 (m, 2H), 6.60 (s, 1H), 4.60 (s, 2H); MS ES 386 (M+H)+calcd 386, RT=1.73 min.

Preparation of 6-(2,6-dimethylphenyl)-N4-(4-{[2-(trifluoromethyl) pyridin-4-yl]oxy}phenyl)pyrimidine-2,4-diamine




To a mixture of 6-chloro-N4-(4-{[2-(trifluoromethyl)pyridin-4-yl]oxy}phenyl)pyrimidine-2,4-diamine (1.0 g, 2.6 mmol; available by condensation of 2-amino-4,6-dichloropyrimidine and {4-[(2-trifluromethylpyridin-4-yl)oxy]phenyl}amine, described in WO 2003/099771, which is hereby incorporated by reference) and 1,3-dimethylphenylboronic acid (786 mg, 5.2 mmol) in DMF (13 m]L) was added aqueous Na2CO3 (2 M, 3.9 mL) and tetrakis(triphenylphosphin)palladium (0) (303 mg, 0.26 mmol). The resulting mixture was degassed for 10 min before it was placed in a microwave reactor (Emrys optimizer by Personal Chemistry) at 150° C. for 20 min. The resulting mixture was cooled to rt before it was filtered and insoluble material was rinsed with DMF. The filtrate was concentrated under vacuo and dissolved in EtOAc. The resulting mixture was washed with water and the organic layer was dried over Na2SO4. Removal of the solvent under vacuo gave the crude material, which was purified with 40 M biotage eluting with Hex/EtOAc (1/1) to provide the title compound as an off-white solid (657 mg, 56%): 1H NMR (DMSO-d6): δ 9.27 (s, 1H), 8.59 (d, 1H), 7.86-7.90 (m, 2H), 7.35 (d, 1H), 7.04-7.17 (m, 6H), 6.35 (s, 2H), 5.86 (s, 1H), 2.10 (s, 6H) ppm; MS ES 452 (M+H)+, RT=2.76 min.
Example 336
Preparation of 6-(6-aminopyridin-3-yl)-N4-{4-[(2-methylpyridin-4-yl)oxy]phenyl}pyrimidine-2,4-diamine




Step 1: Preparation of {4-[(2-Methylpyridin-4-yl) oxy] phenyl} amine




4-aminophenol (44.9 g, 410 mmol) was added to the 1 L 3-neck flask and dissolved with N,N-dimethylacetamide (600 mL). The stirred mixture was then cooled to 9° C. and potassium t-butoxide (46.18 g, 410 mmol) was added portionwise; the solution turned green and solidified before potassium t-butoxide addition was completed. Stirring was reestablished and a solution containing the 4-chloro-2-picoline (50 g, 390 mmol) in N,N-dimethylacetamide (400 mL) was slowly added and the mixture was heated at 90° C. for 17 h. The mixture was then allowed to cool to 45° C., filtered and concentrated to near dryness in vacuo to leave brown residue. The residue was slowly added to vigorously stirred water (1 L) and the suspension was stirred for 1 hr.
