## Background
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
This application is a U.S. national stage entry of international application serial No. PCT/US2005/041161 filed Nov. 10, 2005, which claims priority to U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/630,984, filed Nov. 24, 2004.


This invention relates to aromatic ethers which demonstrate activity as inhibitors of thrombin and/or factor Xa and, accordingly, which are useful antithrombotics in mammals. In particular it relates to aromatic ethers having high anticoagulant activity, good oral exposure and antithrombotic activity. Thus, this invention relates to new aromatic ethers which are inhibitors of thrombin and/or factor Xa, pharmaceutical compositions containing the aromatic ethers as active ingredients, and the use of the aromatic ethers as anticoagulants for prophylaxis and treatment of thromboembolic disorders such as venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, arterial thrombosis, in particular myocardial ischemia, myocardial infarction and cerebral thrombosis, general hypercoagulable states and local hypercoagulable states, such as following angioplasty and coronary bypass operations, and generalized tissue injury as it relates to the inflammatory process. In addition, the aromatic ethers are useful as anticoagulants in vitro applications.
The process of blood coagulation, thrombosis, is triggered by a complex proteolytic cascade leading to the formation of thrombin. Thrombin proteolytically removes activation peptides from the Aα-chains and the Bβ-chains of fibrinogen, which is soluble in blood plasma, initiating insoluble fibrin formation. The formation of thrombin from prothrombin is catalyzed by factor Xa.
Anticoagulation currently is achieved by the administration of heparins and coumarins. Parenteral pharmacological control of coagulation and thrombosis is based on inhibition of thrombin through the use of heparins. Heparins act indirectly on thrombin by accelerating the inhibitory effect of endogenous antithrombin III (the main physiological inhibitor of thrombin). Because antithrombin III levels vary in plasma and because clot-bound thrombin seems resistant to this indirect mechanism, heparins can be an ineffective treatment. Because coagulation assays are believed to be associated with efficacy and with safety, heparin levels must be monitored with coagulation assays (particularly the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) assay). Coumarins impede the generation of thrombin by blocking the posttranslational gamma-carboxylation in the synthesis of prothrombin and other proteins of this type. Because of their mechanism of action, the effect of coumarins can only develop slowly, 6-24 hours after administration. Further, they are not selective anticoagulants. Coumarins also require monitoring with coagulation assays (particularly the prothrombin time (PT) assay).
Recently, interest has grown in small synthetic molecules which demonstrate potent direct inhibition of thrombin and factor Xa. See, for example, B. Y. Zhu and R. M. Scarborough, Annual Reports in Medicinal Chemistry, (2000), 35, 83-102, Factor Xa Inhibitors: Recent Advances in Anticoagulant Agents.
Although the heparins and coumarins are effective anticoagulants, there still exists a need for anticoagulants which act selectively on factor Xa and/or thrombin, and which, independent of antithrombin III, exert inhibitory action shortly after administration, preferably by an oral route, and do not interfere with lysis of blood clots, as required to maintain hemostasis.
The present invention is directed to the discovery that the aromatic ethers of the present invention, as defined below, are potent inhibitors of thrombin and/or factor Xa which may have high bioavailability following oral administration.

As used herein, a nitrogen protecting group RP includes any conventional nitrogen protecting group which is appropriate for the relevant transformation(s) and compounds in terms of stability and removal. It may be preferred to introduce or change the nitrogen protecting group RP during the preparation of a compound. A typical value for RP is one which forms a urethane, such as for example a t-butoxycarbonyl or benzyloxycarbonyl group; however, RP will be other than a urethane when the intramolecular formation of a (cyclic) urethane is favorable, for example, RP may be a trifluoroacetyl or a phenylsulfonyl group. In addition, RP includes resin based protecting groups, such as the urethane formed with Wang-p-nitrophenyl carbonate (Wang-PNP) resin, as described in the examples, for example at Example 113-H, at General Procedure H at Example 1301 and at General Procedure K at Example 1602.
For a carboxylic acid herein, a typical activated derivative includes an ester (particularly a lower alkyl ester such as the methyl or ethyl ester), an acid halide (particularly the acid chloride), and an activated ester or anhydride (including the 4-nitrophenyl ester and an activated ester or mixed anhydride derived from a coupling reagent).
As used herein, a leaving group “Ya” or “Yc” is a moiety which is displaced in an aromatic nucleophilic substitution reaction, for example a halo group (such as fluoro or chloro) or a sulfonate ester group (such as methylsulfonyloxy, p-toluoylsulfonyloxy or trifluoromethylsulfonyloxy). The substitution may be carried out by heating a mixture of the reagents, optionally in a polar solvent, and optionally in the presence of a base, for example as described at Examples 4-F, 35-C, 168-D and 1401-B.
As used herein, a leaving group “Yb” is a moiety which is displaced in a nucleophilic substitution reaction, for example a halo group (such as chloro, bromo or iodo), a sulfonate ester group (such as methylsulfonyloxy, p-toluoyl-sulfonyloxy or trifluoromethylsulfonyloxy), or the reactive species derived from treating an alcohol with triphenyl-phospine, diethyl azodicarboxylate and triethyl amine (in a Mitsunobu reaction).
Reductive alkylations are described, for example, at Examples 3, 56-C, 92, 94-E and 147, as well as in General Procedure A prior to Example 202 and in General Procedure G prior to Example 313.
As used herein, a leaving group “Y” is a moiety which is displaced in a nucleophilic substitution reaction, for example a halo group (such as bromo or iodo), a sulfonate ester group (such as methylsulfonyloxy, p-toluoylsulfonyloxy or trifluoromethylsulfonyloxy), or the reactive species derived from treating an alcohol with triphenylphospine, diethyl azodicarboxylate and triethyl amine (in a Mitsunobu reaction). In addition, an epoxy group may provide the leaving group for the preparation of a compound in which the —CH(OH)— group is adjacent to the substituted carbon. Direct alkylation at nitrogen with an alkyl halide is described, for example, at General Procedure E prior to Example 402; and direct alkylation at nitrogen using an epoxide is described, for example, at Example 36, as well as at General Procedure D prior to Example 231 and GeneralProcedure F prior to Example 601. Direct alkylation at oxygen is described, for example, at Example 113-I, as well as in General Procedure H at Example 1301-B and at General Procedure K prior to Example 1602.
Acylating the amino nitrogen of a compound of formula I in which Ra is hydrogen is conveniently carried out using an activated derivative of the corresponding acid, for example the acyl chloride, an anhydride or an activated ester or mixed anhydride derived from a coupling reagent, optionally in the presense of a base. When Rd is —CZNH—(CH2)zRz, the acylating agent is conveniently the corresponding isocyanate or isothiocyanate of formula ZCN—(CH2)zRz. Acylations are described, for example, at Example 58, Example 139-A, General Procedure B prior to Example 206, General Procedure C prior to Example 228, and at Example 244.
Oxidizing a compound in which n is 0 to afford a compound in which n is 1 is conveniently carried out in a manner as described in Example 23 or by using one equivalent of meta-choloroperbenzoic acid. Oxidizing a compound in which n is 1 to afford a compound in which n is 2 is conveniently carried out using at least one equivalent of meta-choloroperbenzoic acid. When a compound in which n is 2 is required, it is conveniently obtained from the compound in which n is 0 as described in Example 25, in which the intermediate compound in which n is 1 is not isolated but oxidized directly in situ into the compound in which n is 2.
If not commercially available, a necessary starting material for the preparation of a compound of formula I may be prepared by a novel process described herein or one analogous thereto or by a procedure which is selected from standard techniques of organic chemistry, including aromatic substitution and transformation, from techniques which are analogous to the syntheses of known, structurally similar compounds, and techniques which are analogous to the above described procedures or procedures described in the Examples. It will be clear to one skilled in the art that a variety of sequences is available for the preparation of the starting materials. A novel intermediate or starting material compound provides a further aspect of the invention.
Selective methods of substitution, protection and deprotection are well known in the art for preparation of a compound such as one of formulae II-XIII.
Thus, one particular intermediate is an acid of formula III, or a salt thereof, or an activated derivative thereof,




wherein R1 and R2 have any of the values defined herein above (and in which Ra as hydrogen may be replaced by a nitrogen protecting group RP and/or an amino group in R2 may bear a nitrogen protecting group RP). Conveniently, the salt of a carboxylic acid herein may be the lithium, sodium or potassium salt. A particular acid of formula III is one in which R1 has any of the values defined herein above and R2 is aminomethyl, 1-aminoethyl or 1-amino-1-methylethyl, (and in which Ra as hydrogen may be replaced by a nitrogen protecting group RP and/or the amino group in R2 may bear a nitrogen protecting group RP).

Another aspect is an acid of formula IV

In addition, for an acid of formula IV, in which L2 is carbonyl, a particular activated derivative is a compound of formula V,





or a salt of the active derivative, in which A3-A6, R1 and R2 have any of the values defined herein, or a derivative thereof in which a functional group other than the activated derivative of the carboxy group is protected using a protecting group. Further, for an acid of formula IV, in which L2 is methylene, a particular activated derivative is a compound of formula Va,

An additional intermediate, beyond a compound of formula I in which R2 is chloro or fluoro, is a compound of formula XI




(in which Ra as hydrogen may be replaced by a nitrogen protecting group RP or an oxo group may be replaced by a ketal) wherein Yc is a leaving group for nucleophilic aromatic substitution other than fluoro or chloro and A3-A6, -L1-Q1 and R1 have any of the values defined hereinabove.

A further intermediate is a compound of formula XII




(in which Ra as hydrogen may be replaced by a nitrogen protecting group RP or an oxo group may be replaced by a ketal) wherein A3-A6, -L1-Q1 and R1 have any of the values defined hereinabove.

As an another aspect of the invention there is provided compound of formula I as disclosed herein, but in which Ra as hydrogen is replaced by a nitrogen protecting group RP and/or an amino group in R2 bears a nitrogen protecting group RP and/or an oxo group is replaced by a ketal, wherein A3-A6, L1, L2, Q1, R1 and R2, otherwise, have any of the values defined herein.
As mentioned above, the invention includes a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the thrombin and/or factor Xa inhibiting compound defined by the above formula I. A basic compound of this invention possesses one or more functional groups sufficiently basic to react with any of a number of inorganic and organic acids affording a physiologically acceptable counterion to form a pharmaceutically acceptable salt.
Generally, a basic compound of the invention is isolated best in the form of an acid addition salt. A salt of a compound of formula I formed with an acid such as mentioned above is useful as a pharmaceutically acceptable salt for administration of the antithrombotic agent and for preparation of a pharmaceutical composition of the agent. Other acid addition salts may be prepared and used in the isolation and purification of the compounds.
As noted above, the optically active isomers and diastereomers of the compounds of formula I are also considered part of this invention. Such optically active isomers may be prepared from their respective optically active precursors by the procedures described above, or by resolving the racemic mixtures. This resolution can be carried out by derivatization with a chiral reagent followed by chromatography or by repeated crystallization. Removal of the chiral auxiliary by standard methods affords substantially optically pure isomers of the compounds of the present invention or their precursors.
The compounds of the invention are believed to selectively inhibit thrombin and/or factor Xa over other proteinases and nonenzyme proteins involved in blood coagulation without appreciable interference with the body's natural clot lysing ability (the compounds have a low inhibitory effect on fibrinolysis). Further, such selectivity is believed to permit use with thrombolytic agents without substantial interference with thrombolysis and fibrinolysis.
The invention in one of its aspects provides a method of inhibiting thrombin and/or factor Xa in a mammal comprising administering to a mammal in need of treatment an effective (thrombin and/or factor Xa inhibiting) dose of a compound of formula I.
In another of its aspects, the invention provides a method of treating a thromboembolic disorder comprising administering to a mammal in need of treatment an effective (thromboembolic disorder therapeutic and/or prophylactic amount) dose of a compound of formula I.
The invention in another of its aspects provides a method of inhibiting coagulation in a mammal comprising administering to a mammal in need of treatment an effective (coagulation inhibiting) dose of a compound of formula I.
The thrombin and/or factor Xa inhibition, coagulation inhibition and thromboembolic disorder treatment contemplated by the present method includes both medical therapeutic and/or prophylactic treatment as appropriate.
In a further embodiment, the invention relates to treatment, in a human or animal, of a condition where inhibition of thrombin and/or factor Xa is required. The compounds of the invention are expected to be useful in mammals, including man, in treatment or prophylaxis of thrombosis and hypercoagulability in blood and tissues. Disorders in which the compounds have a potential utility are in treatment or prophylaxis of thrombosis and hypercoagulability in blood and tissues. Disorders in which the compounds have a potential utility, in treatment and/or prophylaxis, include venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, arterial thrombosis, such as in myocardial ischemia, myocardial infarction, unstable angina, thrombosis-based stroke and peripheral arterial thrombosis. Further, the compounds have expected utility in the treatment or prophylaxis of atherosclerotic disorders (diseases) such as coronary arterial disease, cerebral arterial disease and peripheral arterial disease. Further, the compounds are expected to be useful together with thrombolytics in myocardial infarction. Further, the compounds have expected utility in prophylaxis for reocclusion after thrombolysis, percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTCA) and coronary bypass operations. Further, the compounds have expected utility in prevention of rethrombosis after microsurgery. Further, the compounds are expected to be useful in anticoagulant treatment in connection with artificial organs, including joint replacement, and cardiac valves. Further, the compounds have expected utility in anticoagulant treatment in hemodialysis and disseminated intravascular coagulation. Further, the compounds may be useful in reducing the increased thrombin generation which occurs in the airways of patients with asthma; see, E. C. Gabazza, et al., Lung, (1999), 177(4), 253-262. A further expected utility is in rinsing or coating of catheters and mechanical devices used in patients in vivo, and as an anticoagulant for preservation of blood, plasma and other blood products in vitro. Still further, the compounds have expected utility in other diseases where blood coagulation could be a fundamental contributing process or a source of secondary pathology, such as cancer, including metastasis, inflammatory diseases, including arthritis, and diabetes. The anti-coagulant compound is administered orally or parenterally, e.g. by intravenous infusion (iv), intramuscular injection (im) or subcutaneously (sc).
The specific dose of a compound administered according to this invention to obtain therapeutic and/or prophylactic effects will, of course, be determined by the particular circumstances surrounding the case, including, for example, the compound administered, the rate of administration, the route of administration, and the condition being treated.
A typical daily dose for each of the above utilities is between about 0.01 mg/kg and about 1000 mg/kg. The dose regimen may vary e.g. for prophylactic use a single daily dose may be administered or multiple doses such as 3 or 5 times daily may be appropriate. In critical care situations a compound of the invention is administered by iv infusion at a rate between about 0.01 mg/kg/h and about 20 mg/kg/h and preferably between about 0.1 mg/kg/h and about 5 mg/kg/h.
The method of this invention also is practiced in conjunction with a clot lysing agent e.g. tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA), modified t-PA, streptokinase or urokinase. In cases when clot formation has occurred and an artery or vein is blocked, either partially or totally, a clot lysing agent is usually employed. A compound of the invention can be administered prior to or along with the lysing agent or subsequent to its use, and preferably further is administered along with aspirin to prevent the reoccurrence of clot formation.
The method of this invention is also practiced in conjunction with a platelet glycoprotein receptor (IIb/IIIa) antagonist, that inhibits platelet aggregation. A compound of the invention can be administered prior to or along with the IIb/IIIa antagonist or subsequent to its use to prevent the occurrence or reoccurrence of clot formation.
The method of this invention is also practiced in conjunction with aspirin. A compound of the invention can be administered prior to or along with aspirin or subsequent to its use to prevent the occurrence or reoccurrence of clot formation. As stated above, preferably a compound of the present invention is administered in conjunction with a clot lysing agent and aspirin.
This invention also provides a pharmaceutical composition for use in the above described therapeutic method. A pharmaceutical composition of the invention comprises a compound of formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, in association with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, diluent or excipient.
The active ingredient in such formulations comprises from 0.1 percent to 99.9 percent by weight of the formulation. By “pharmaceutically acceptable” it is meant the carrier, diluent or excipient must be compatible with the other ingredients of the formulation and not deleterious to the recipient thereof.
The present pharmaceutical compositions are prepared by known procedures using well known and readily available ingredients. The compositions of this invention may be formulated so as to provide quick, sustained, or delayed release of the active ingredient after administration to the patient by employing procedures well known in the art.
The ability of a compound of the present invention to be an effective and orally active thrombin and/or factor Xa inhibitor may be evaluated in one or more of the following assays or in other standard assays known to those in the art.
The inhibition by a compound of the invention of a serine protease of the human blood coagulation system or of the fibrinolytic system, as well as of trypsin, is determined in vitro for the particular enzyme by measuring its inhibitor binding affinity in an assay in which the enzyme hydrolyzes a particular chromogenic substrate, for example as described in Smith, G. F.; Gifford-Moore, D.; Craft, T. J.; Chirgadze, N.; Ruterbories, K. J.; Lindstrom, T. D.; Satterwhite, J. H. Efegatran: A New Cardiovascular Anticoagulant. New Anticoagulants for the Cardiovascular Patient; Pifarre, R., Ed.; Hanley & Belfus, Inc.: Philadelphia, 1997; pp. 265-300. The inhibitor binding affinity is measured as apparent association constant Kass which is the hypothetical equilibrium constant for the reaction between enzyme and the test inhibitor compound (I).

Conveniently, enzyme inhibition kinetics are performed in a high-volume protocol using automated dilutions of inhibitors (n=3 for each of four to eight inhibitor concentrations) into 96-well polystyrene plates and reaction rates are determined from the rate of hydrolysis of appropriate p-nitroanilide substrates at 405 nm using a Thermomax plate reader from Molecular Devices (San Francisco, Calif.). The same general protocol is followed for all enzymes studied: In each well is placed 50 μL buffer (0.06 M Tris, 0.3 M NaCl, pH 7.4), followed by 25 μL of inhibitor solution (in 100 % methanol) and 25 μL enzyme solution (e.g., human factor Xa, 32 nM in 0.03 M Tris, 0.15 M NaCl, 1 mg/mL HAS); finally, within two minutes, 150 μL aqueous solution of chromogenic substrate (e.g., 0.3 mM BzIle-Glu-Gly-Arg-pNA) is added to start the enzymatic reaction. Final factor Xa concentration is 3.2 nM. The rates of chromogenic substrate hydrolysis reactions provide a linear relationship with the enzymes studied such that free enzyme can be quantitated in reaction mixtures. Data is analyzed directly as rates by the Softmax program to produce [free enzyme] calculations for tight-binding Kass determinations. For apparent Kass determinations, human factor Xa is used to hydrolyze BzIle-Glu-Gly- Arg-pNA (SEQ ID NO: 1); 5.9 nM human thrombin is used to hydrolyze 0.2 mM BzPhe-Val-Arg-pNA; 3.4 nM human plasmin is used with 0.5 mM HD-Val-Leu-Lys-pNA; 1.2 nM human nt-PA is used with 0.8 mM HD-Ile-Pro-Arg-pNA; and 0.4 nM urokinase is used with 0.4 mM pyro-Glu-Gly-Arg-pNA.

Kass is calculated for a range of concentrations of test compounds which produce hydrolysis inhibition of between 20% and 80% of control and the mean value reported in units of liter per mole. In general, a compound of formula I of the instant invention, as exemplified hereinbelow in the working examples, exhibits a Kass for factor Xa of 0.1-1,000×106 L/mole or greater. Most of the examples also exhibit a Kass for thrombin (factor IIa) of 0.3-100×106 L/mole or greater. For example, the respective Kass values as to factor Xa/thrombin for Examples 41, 60, 106, 115, 1403 and 1414 are 407/16.9, 430/4.2, 3630/308, 3013/40 and 3630/308×106 L/mole.
The thrombin and/or factor Xa inhibitor preferably should spare fibrinolysis induced by urokinase, tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) and streptokinase. This would be important to the therapeutic use of such an agent as an adjunct to streptokinase, tp-PA or urokinase thrombolytic therapy and to the use of such an agent as an endogenous fibrinolysis-sparing (with respect to t-PA and urokinase) antithrombotic agent. In addition to the lack of interference with the amidase activity of the fibrinolytic proteases, such fibrinolytic system sparing can be studied by the use of human plasma clots and their lysis by the respective fibrinolytic plasminogen activators.

Methods
Anticoagulation Determinations
Coagulation assay procedures are as previously described. Smith, et al., Thrombosis Research, 50, 163-174 (1988). A CoAScreener coagulation instrument (American LABor, Inc.) is used for all coagulation assay measurements. The prothrombin time (PT) is measured by adding 0.05 mL saline and 0.05 mL Thromboplastin-C reagent or recombinant human tissue factor reagent (Innovin) to 0.05 mL test plasma. The activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) is measured by incubation of 0.05 mL test plasma with 0.05 mL Actin reagent for 120 seconds followed by 0.05 mL CaCl2 (0.02 M). The thrombin time (TT) is measured by adding 0.05 mL saline and 0.05 mL thrombin (10 NIH units/mL) to 0.05 mL test plasma. Thus, the plasma concentrations are three times the assay concentrations. The compounds of formula I are added to human or animal plasma over a wide range of concentrations to determine prolongation effects on the APTT, PT, and TT assays. Linear extrapolations are performed to estimate the concentrations required to double the clotting time for each assay. Compounds of the instant invention potently extended the prolongation times in the APTT and PT assays, for example in some cases, with assay concentrations necessary to double the APPT or PT of less than 1 μM.
Animals
Male Sprague Dawley rats (350-425 gm, Harlan Sprague Dawley Inc., Indianapolis, Ind.) are anesthetized with xylazine (20 mg/kg, s.c.) and ketamine (120 mg/kg, s.c.) or preferably are anesthetized using isoflurane anesthesia (2-3%, conveniently 2.5%, for surgery; 1.5-2.5%, conveniently 2.5%, for maintenance; flow rate kept at 0.5% throughout) and maintained on a heated water blanket (37° C.). The jugular vein(s) is cannulated to allow for infusions.
Arterio-Venous Shunt Model
The left jugular vein and right carotid artery are cannulated with 20 cm lengths of polyethylene PE 60 tubing. A 6 cm center section of larger tubing (PE 190) with a cotton thread (5 cm) in the lumen, is friction fitted between the longer sections to complete the arterio-venous shunt circuit. Blood is circulated through the shunt for 15 min before the thread is carefully removed and weighed. The weight of a wet thread is subtracted from the total weight of the thread and thrombus (see J. R. Smith, Br J Pharmacol, 77:29, 1982).
FeCl3 Model of Arterial Injury
The carotid arteries are isolated via a midline ventral cervical incision. A thermocouple is placed under each artery and vessel temperature is recorded continuously on a strip chart recorder. A cuff of tubing (0.058 ID×0.077 OD×4 mm, Baxter Med. Grade Silicone), cut longitudinally, is placed around each carotid directly above the thermocouple. FeCl3 hexahydrate is dissolved in water and the concentration (20 percent) is expressed in terms of the actual weight of FeCl3 only. To injure the artery and induce thrombosis, 2.85 μL is pipetted into the cuff to bathe the artery above the thermocouple probe. Arterial occlusion is indicated by a rapid drop in temperature. The time to occlusion is reported in minutes and represents the elapsed time between application of FeCl3 and the rapid drop in vessel temperature (see K. D. Kurz, Thromb. Res., 60:269, 1990).
Ex Vivo Coagulation Parameters
Ex vivo plasma thrombin time (TT), prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) are measured with a fibrometer. Blood is sampled from a jugular catheter and collected in syringe containing sodium citrate (3.8 percent, 1 part to 9 parts blood). To measure TT, rat plasma (0.1 mL) is mixed with isotonic saline (0.1 mL) and bovine thrombin (0.1 mL, 30 U/mL in TRIS buffer; Parke Davis) at 37° C. For PT, to plasma (0.1 mL) mixed with isotonic saline (0.1 mL) is added PT reagent (0.1 mL, Dade, Thromboplastin-C); and the fibrometer started immediately after the addition of the final reagent. For APTT, plasma (0.1 mL) and APTT solution (0.1 mL, Organon Teknika) are incubated for 5 minutes (37° C.); and CaCl2 (0.1 mL, 0.025 M) is added to start coagulation. Assays are done in duplicate and averaged.
Index of Bioavailability
Bioavailability studies may be conducted as follows. Compounds are administered as aqueous solutions, or as solutions in 5% PEG 200, to male Fisher rats, intravenously (iv) at 5 mg/kg via tail vein injection and orally (po) as aqueous solutions, or as a suspension in 5% acacia, to fasted animals at 20 mg/kg by gavage. Serial blood samples are obtained at 5, 30, 120, and 240 minutes postdose following intravenous administration and at 1, 2, 4, and 6 hours after oral dosing. Plasma is analyzed for drug concentration using an HPLC procedure involving C8 Bond Elute (Varian) cartridges for sample preparation and a methanol/30 nM ammonium acetate buffer (pH 4) gradient optimized for each compound. % Oral bioavailability is calculated by the following equation:

Compounds

For oral determinations, the compound may be administered orally, by gavage, as a suspension in 5% acaia to conscious fasted rats. The pretreatment time before flow is established through the shunt is selected based upon the peak apparent plasma concentration recorded in preliminary time course experiments that track apparent drug concentration in plasma following oral administration to conscious fasted rats, and typically varies between 1 to 5 hours. Animals used in antithrombotic efficacy experiments are anesthetized as described 15 minutes before the predetermined pretreatment time to allow for surgical preparation of the animals. Compound solutions are prepared fresh daily in normal saline or in 5% PEG200 in water for iv determinations and are injected as a bolus or are infused starting 15 minutes before and continuing throughout the experimental perturbation which is 15 minutes in the arteriovenous shunt model and 60 minutes in the FeCl3 model of arterial injury and in the spontaneous thrombolysis model. Typically, bolus injection volume is 1 mL/kg for iv, and 5 mL/kg for po, and infusion volume is 3 mL/h. For a similar procedure run in the anesthesized rabbit, for example an infusion rate of 6.8 mL/h was used for one compound infused in 5% PEG200 in water.
Statistics
Results are expressed as means +/−SEM. One-way analysis of variance is used to detect statistically significant differences and then Dunnett's test is applied to determine which means are different. Significance level for rejection of the null hypothesis of equal means is P<0.05.
Animals
Male dogs (Beagles; 18 months-2 years; 12-13 kg, Marshall Farms, North Rose, New York 14516) are fasted overnight and fed Purina certified Prescription Diet (Purina Mills, St. Louis, Mo.) 240 minutes after dosing. Water is available ad libitum. The room temperature is maintained between 66-74° F.; 45-50 percent relative humidity; and lighted from 0600-1800 hours.
Pharmacokinetic Model.
Test compound is formulated immediately prior to dosing by making a suspension in a “wet granulaion” (povidone, 0.85 mg/mL; lactose, 15.0 mg/mL; and polysorbate 80, 65 μL in 250 mL water). Dogs are given a single 20 mg/kg (in 25 mL of wet granulation) dose of test compound by oral gavage. Blood samples (4.5 mL) are taken from the cephalic vein at 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 hours after dosing. Samples are collected in citrated Vacutainer tubes and kept on ice prior to reduction to plasma by centrifugation. Plasma samples are analyzed by HPLC MS. Plasma concentration of test compound is recorded and used to calculate the pharmacokinetic parameters: elimination rate constant, Ke; total clearance, Clt; volume of distribution, VD; time of maximum plasma test compound concentration, Tmax; maximum concentration of test compound of Tmax, Cmax; plasma half-life, t0.5; and area under the curve, A.U.C.; fraction of test compound absorbed, F.
Canine Model of Coronary Artery Thrombosis
Male dogs (Beagles, as described above) are fasted overnight and dosed with test compound that is fomulated immediately prior to dosing by making a suspension in a “wet granulation” as described above. Dogs are given a single dose of 5, 10 or 20 mg/kg (in 25 mL of wet granulation) of test compound by oral gavage. Based on the pharmacokinetics of the test compound, dogs are dosed either 1 or 2 hours prior to anesthesia. Dogs are anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital (30 mg/kg intravenously, i.v.), intubated, and ventilated with room air. Tidal volume and respiratory rates are adjusted to maintain blood PO2, PCO2, and pH within normal limits. Subdermal needle electrodes are inserted for the recording of a lead II ECG.
The left jugular vein and common carotid artery are isolated through a left mediolateral neck incision. Arterial blood pressure (ABP) is measured continuously with a precalibrated Millar transducer (model MPC-500, Millar Instruments, Houston, Tex., U.S.A.) inserted into the carotid artery. The jugular vein is cannulated for blood sampling during the experiment. In addition, the femoral veins of both hindlegs are cannulated for administration of test compound.
A left thoracotomy is performed at the fifth intercostal space, and the heart is suspended in a pericardial cradle. A 1- to 2-cm segment of the left circumflex coronary artery (LCX) is isolated proximal to the first major diagonal ventricular branch. A 26-gauge needle-tipped wire anodal electrode (Teflon-coated, 30-gauge silverplated copper wire) 3-4 mm long is inserted into the LCX and placed in contact with the intimal surface of the artery (confirmed at the end of the experiment). The stimulating circuit is completed by placing the cathode in a subcutaneous (s.c.) site. An adjustable plastic occluder is placed around the LCX, over the region of the electrode. A precalibrated electromagnetic flow probe (Carolina Medical Electronics, King, N.C., U.S.A.) is placed around the LCX proximal to the anode for measurement of coronary blood flow (CBF). The occluder is adjusted to produce a 40-50 percent inhibition of the hyperemic blood flow response observed after 10-s mechanical occlusion of the LCX. All hemodynamic and ECG measurements are recorded and analyzed with a data acquisition system (Notochord HEM data analysis system, Croissy, France).
Thrombus Formation and Compound Administration Regimens
Electrolytic injury of the intima of the LCX is produced by applying 100-μA direct current (DC) to the anode. The current is maintained for 60 min and then discontinued whether the vessel has occluded or not. Thrombus formation proceeds spontaneously until the LCX is totally occluded (determined as zero CBF and an increase in the S-T segment for a minimum of 30 minutes). The preparation is followed for 4 hours at which time the animal is euthanized and the thrombus is dissected from the LCX and weighed.
Hematology, Coagulation and Template Bleeding Time Determinations
Citrated blood (3 mL, 1 part 3.8% citrate:9 parts blood) is drawn before drug administration, at 60 min after administration, at 60 min after initiation of vessel injury and just prior to the end of the experiment. Whole blood cell counts, hemoglobin, and hematocrit values are determined on a 40-μL sample of the citrated whole blood with a hematology analyzer (Cell-Dyn 900, Sequoia-Turner, Mount View, Calif., U.S.A.). The remaining blood was cetrifuged at 3,000 g for 5 min to prepare cell-free plasma. Plasma clotting times, prothrombin time (PT) and activated partial thromoplastin times (APTT) were performed using standard Dade reagents and the Coa-Screener coagulation device (American Labor, Largo, Fla.). Gingival template bleeding times are determined with a Simplate II bleeding time device (Organon Teknika Durham, N.C., U.S.A.). The device is used to make 2 horizontal incisions in the gingiva of either the upper or lower left jaw of the dog. Each incision is 3 mm wide×2 mm deep. The incisions are made, and a stopwatch is used to determine how long bleeding occurs. A cotton swab is used to soak up the blood as it oozes from the incision. Template bleeding time is the time from incision to stoppage of bleeding. Bleeding times are taken just before administration of test compound (0 min), 60 min into infusion, at conclusion of administration of the test compound (120 min), and at the end of the experiment.
All data are analyzed by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Dunnet's post hoc t test to determine the level of significance. Repeated-measures ANOVA are used to determine significant differences between time points during the experiments. Values are determined to be statistically different at least at the level of p<0.05. All values are mean±SEM. All studies are conducted in accordance with the guiding principles of the American Physiological Society. Further details regarding the procedures are described in Jackson, et al., J. Cardiovasc. Pharmacol., (1993), 21, 587-599.

in which R has the indicated value of Ra were prepared according to the indicated procedure from a requisite corresponding compound of formula I and the reagents and conditions appropriate for the indicated procedure or by a procedure otherwise noted.

EXAMPLE 201
R═BOC; Procedure:
Under a nitrogen atmosphere, 2-(1-tert-butoxycarbonylpiperidin-4-yloxy)-4-tert-butyl benzoic acid (1.52 g, 4 mmol) was dissolved in dry dichloromethane (25 mL) and dimethylformamide (0.25 mL) catalyst was added. Subsequently oxalyl chloride (0.423 mL, 4.85 mmol) was added portionwise via syringe. Vigorous gas evolution took place.
The mixture was stirred at room temperature for about 10 minutes until gas evolution nearly ceased, then the volatiles were evaporated under vacuum. The resulting milky-white residue was redissolved in 4:1 dichloromethane:toluene, concentrated again in vacuo, then dissolved in amylene-stabilized chloroform (10 mL) and transferred to an addition funnel. The acid chloride solution was added dropwise to a stirring ice-cold solution of 2-amino-N-(5-chloropyridin-2-yl)benzamide (1.0 g, 4 mmol) and pyridine (1.15 g, 14.5 mmol) in amylene-stabilized chloroform (20 mL). The mixture was then allowed to warm to room temperature with stirring overnight. The mixture was diluted with dichloromethane, washed once each with saturated sodium bicarbonate solution, water, and brine, then dried and concentrated in vacuo to provide a crusty brown foam.
The foam was purified on a 6 mm Chromatotron plate using 1:1 ether:hexanes. A mass of white solid precipitated from the eluted fractions. This material was washed several times with petroleum ether, then dried under high vacuum to provide 1.75 grams (71%) of 2-[2-(1-tert-butoxycarbonylpiperidin-4-yloxy)-4-(tert-butyl)benzoylamino]-N-(5-chloro-pyridin-2-yl)benzamide as a white solid.

EXAMPLE 202
R═H; Procedure:
The 2-[2-(1-tert-butoxycarbonylpiperidin-4-yloxy)-4-(tert-butyl)benzoylamino]-N-(5-chloropyridin-2-yl)benzamide (1.57 g, 2.58 mmol) was dissolved in 20 mL of a 4 N HCl in dioxane solution at room temperature, resulting in a modest evolution of gas. After 1 hour stirring at room temperature, the solvent and HCl gas were evaporated in vacuo, then the resulting white solid was resuspended in 75 mL 2:1 EtOAc:dichloromethane and evaporated a second time. The pasty white solid was dissolved in a solution of K2 CO3 (11.2 g) in water (75 mL), dichloromethane was added (75 mL), and the mixture vigorously stirred overnight. The mixture was partitioned, the aqueous layer back-extracted twice with dichloromethane, then the combined organic layers washed with brine. The organic layer was dried and concentrated in vacuo to provide 2-[4-tert-butyl)-2-(piperidin-4-yloxy)benzoylamino]-N-(5-chloropyridin-2-yl)benzamide (1.32 g, 100%) as an off-white crystalline solid.

General Procedure A for Reductive Alkylation of Secondary Amines Such as the Compound Described in Example 202:
The 2-[4-(tert-butyl)-2-(piperidin-4-yloxy)benzoylamino]-N-(5-chloropyridin-2-yl)benzamide (30 mg, 59 pmunol) is placed in a 4 mL screw-cap vial, then the aldehyde (180 micromoles, 3 eq) or the ketone (at least 180 micromoles, at least 3 eq) is added directly to the amine. The amine and aldehyde component mixture are then dissolved in 1 mL of freshly prepared 95:5 anhydrous MeOH:AcOH. To this solution is added 0.5 mL freshly prepared sodium cyanoborohydride solution (15.1 mg/mL in 95:5 anhydrous MeOH:AcOH, 120 micromoles, 2 equivalents). The vial is capped and shaken overnight at room temperature on an orbital platform shaker (350 rpm). The crude reaction mixture is then applied to a solid phase extraction (SPE) cartridge (strong cation exchange (SCX), 6 cc volume, 1 gram of packing material from Varian Sample Preparation Products, Harbor City, Calif.) that has been pre-washed with methanol (2×5 mL). The cartridge is next washed with methanol (3-4×5 mL). The product is eluted with 0.5 M ammonia in methanol (2×5 mL). The resulting solution is concentrated in vacuo to afford the alkylated product, generally in 60-95% yield.

General Procedure B for Acylation of Secondary Amines Such as the Compound Described in Example 202:
The 2-[4-tert-butyl)-2-(piperidin-4-yloxy)benzoylamino]-N-(5-chloropyridin-2-yl)benzamide (30 mg, 59 pnol) in a 4 mL screw cap vial is dissolved in amylene-stabilized chloroform (1 mL). An isocyanate or isothiocyanate (1.3 equivalents) is then added directly to the amine solution and the resulting mixture shaken for 2-20 h at room temperature on an orbital shaker (350 rpm). Excess acylating agent is scavenged by adding aminomethylated polystyrene resin (100 mg 2.25 mmol/g loading) and amylene stabilized chloroform (1 mL) to the reaction vial. This slurry is shaken overnight, then filtered through a disposable polypropylene frit. Concentration of the filtrate affords clean product.

To 2-[2-(3-bromopropyl)-4-isopropylbenzoylamino]-N-(5-chloropyridin-2-yl)-benzamide (22 mg, 42 μmol) in a 4 mL screw cap vial is added a primary or secondary amine of choice (120 μmol, 3 equiv) and dimethylformamide (0.25 mL). The vial is capped, and the reaction mixture is heated at 60° C. for 16-36 hours and then allowed to cool to room temperature. Excess primary amines are scavenged by the addition of resin-supported aldehyde (formylmethyl polystyrene, 120 mg@about 1 mmol/g), resin-supported base (piperidinomethylpolystyrene, 100 mg@2.6-2.8 mmol/g), and amylene stabilized chloroform (3 mL). Excess secondary amines are scavenged in the same fashion, except that resin-supported isocyanate (methylisocyanate polystyrene resin, Novabiochem, San Diego, Calif., 150 mg@1 mmol/g) is used instead of aldehyde resin. The resulting slurry is shaken at room temperature on an orbital shaker (350 rpm) overnight, then applied to a pre-washed (1:1 chloroform:MeOH) 6 cc, 1 gram SCX solid phase extraction cartridge. The remaining slurry in the vial is washed with chloroform (3 mL) and the wash is added to the cartridge. The cartridge containing resin slurry is washed once with 5 mL of 1:1 chloroform:MeOH, three times with 5 mL portions of MeOH, then allowed to dry overnight. The dried resin over the SCX media is discarded and the cartridge rinsed once with MeOH (5 mL). The product is eluted with two 5 mL portions of 0.5 M NH3 in MeOH and the eluent is concentrated in vacuo. The residue is then dissolved in 4 mL 1:1 chloroform:MeOH, filtered (0.45 micron teflon filter, Gelman Sciences), and concentrated in vacuo to provide the desired product.

General Procedure K for the Alkylation by Alkyl Halides of Phenols Such as that of Preparation 1601:

Wang-PNP resin (6.85 g, 10.1 mmol, 1.48 mmol/g) was weighed into a 100 mL solid phase reaction vessel and dichloromethane (15 mL) was added. N-(5-Chloro-pyridin-2-yl)-5-fluoro-2-[4-hydroxy-2-(piperidin-4-yloxy)benzoylamino]benzamide (5.16 g, 10.6 mmol) was added in 1-methylpyrrolidin-2-one (15 mL) followed by diisopropylethylamine (2.63 g, 20.3 mmol). The vessel was capped, and placed on a wrist shaker for 24 h. The reaction was poured into a tared fritted funnel, and the resin was washed with dichloromethane and methanol alternately (4 times each), followed by dichloromethane (3×). Drying in the vacuum oven at room temperature gave a quantitative yield of the desired resin (0.981 mmol/g).
The above resin (50 mmol) is weighed into a 4 mL vial and DMF (0.25 mL) was added, followed by sodium methoxide (100 mL, 100.0 mmol, 0.5 N in MeOH). The vial is capped and allowed to stand for 15 min with occasional agitation. The alkyl halide is added (catalytic tetrabutylammonium iodide was added to alkyl chlorides, and 2 eq additional sodium methoxide used for alkyl halides containing acid addition salts of amines) and the capped vial is heated at 60° C. on a 360° rotator for 48 h. The reaction mixture is transferred to a 3 mL solid phase reaction vial. The resin is washed with DMF (2×), dichloromethane (2×), THF (2×), water (2×), THF (2×), and dichloromethane (2×).
After drying briefly in the vacuum oven, 2 mL of 4:1 dichloromethane:TFA is added and the vial is placed on a 360° rotator for 2 h. The reaction is drained into a 20 mL scintillation vial and the resin is washed with 3 mL of dichloromethane. After concentrating overnight under a flow of nitrogen, the residue is taken up in dichloromethane (1 mL) and MeOH (0.25 mL) and the compound purified by SCX solid phase extraction as described in General Procedure A, followed by silica gel chromatography, eluting with a step gradient of 95:5 chloroform:MeOH to 90:10 chloroform:MeOH, to 90:9:1 chloroform:MeOH:(2 N ammonia in MeOH) to 90:5:5 chloroform:MeOH:(2 N ammonia in MeOH) to 90:10:10 chloroform:MeOH:(2 N ammonia in MeOH) to give the desired product.
