## Background
PRIORITY TO RELATED APPLICATIONS
This application is a continuation of and claims priority from PCT/CN2011/070383, filed Jan. 19, 2011. The entire contents of the above-identified application is hereby incorporated by reference.


FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines which act as inhibitors of DYRK1B and/or DYRK1A and are useful in the amelioration, treatment or control of cancer, especially solid tumors, or in the amelioration, treatment or control of Down syndrome or early onset Alzheimer's disease.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Kinases are known to be important cellular enzymes that regulate cellular functions such as regulating cell division and proliferation. WO 2008/047307. Dual-specificity tyrosine-phosphorylation-regulated kinases (DYRKs) are a subfamily of protein kinases that have dual-specificity and are believed to play roles in cell proliferation and apoptosis induction. See, e.g., Kiyotsugu Yoshida, “Role for DYRK family kinases on regulation of apoptosis,” Biochemical Pharmacology 76 (2008) pp 1389-1394; Jinghun Gao et al., “Mirk/Dyrk1B, a novel therapeutic target, mediates cells survival in non-small cell lung cancer cells,” Cancer Biology & Therapy 8:17 (2009) pp. 1671-1679. DYRK1A is believed to be implicated in neural differentiation. Yoshida, id. at 1390. Over expression of this kinase is believed to be involved in Down syndrome and Alzheimer's disease. See Nam Kim, “Putative therapeutic agents for learning and memory deficits of people with Down syndrome,” Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters,” 16 (2006) pp 3772-76 and Joongkyu Park et al, “Function and regulation of Dyrk1A: towards understanding Down syndrome,” Cell. Mol. Life. Sci 66 (2009) pp 3235-3240. Thus, inhibition of this kinase is believed to be of benefit in controlling or ameliorating the effects of Down syndrome and early onset Alzheimer's disease. See, e.g., Kim, id; Park, id, and Kyung Koo et al., “QSAR analysis of pyrazolidine-3,5-diones derivatives as Dyrk1A inhibitors,” Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters 19 (2009) pp 2324-2328.
DYRK1B (also referred to as MIRK) mediates survival and differentiation in many tissues. It is believed to be implicated in certain cancers, particularly solid tumors. See, e.g., Gao, supra (lung cancer cells); Kangmoon Lee et al, “Mirk Protein Kinase is a Mitogen-activated Protein Kinase Substrate that Mediates Survival of Colon Cancer Cells”, Cancer Research 60 (2000):3631-3637 and Xiaobing Deng et al, “The Kinase Mirk/Dyrk1B Mediates Cell Survival in a Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma,” Cancer Res 66:8 (2006) pp 4149-58 (pancreatic cancer cells). Thus, inhibition of this kinase is believed to be of benefit in controlling or ameliorating cancer. See, Cao Yang et al, “The kinase Mirk is a potential therapeutic target in osteosarcoma,” Carcinogenesis 31:4 (2010) pp 552-558 and Eileen Friedman, “The Kinase Mirk/dyrk1B: A Possible Therapeutic Target in Pancreatic Cancer,” Cancers 2 (2010) 1492-1512.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Definitions
As used herein, the following terms shall have the following definitions.
The terms “C1-6 alkyl” or “C1-4 alkyl” refer to straight- or branched-chain saturated hydrocarbon groups having from 1 to 6, or 1 to 4, carbon atoms, respectively. Examples of C1-6 alkyl groups include, but are not limited to, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, i-propyl, n-butyl, s-butyl, t-butyl, n-pentyl, and s-pentyl. Particular example for C1-6 alkyl is methyl, ethyl and n-propyl. Particular example for C1-4 alkyl is methyl, ethyl and n-propyl.
“Alkoxy, alkoxyl or lower alkoxy” refers to any of the above alkyl groups which is attached to the remainder of the molecule by an oxygen atom (RO—). Typical alkoxy groups include methoxy, ethoxy, isopropoxy or propoxy, butyloxy and the like. Further included within the meaning of alkoxy are multiple alkoxy side chains, e.g. ethoxy ethoxy, methoxy ethoxy, methoxy ethoxy ethoxy and the like and substituted alkoxy side chains, e.g., dimethylamino ethoxy, diethylamino ethoxy, dimethoxy-phosphoryl methoxy and the like.
“Aryl” means a substituted or unsubstituted monovalent, monocyclic or bicyclic, aromatic carboxylic hydrocarbon radical, preferably a 6-10 member aromatic ring system. Preferred aryl groups include, but are not limited to, phenyl, naphthyl, tolyl, and xylyl. Particular example for aryl is phenyl.
The term “cycloalkyl” as used herein means a substituted or unsubstituted stable monocyclic or polycyclic system which consists of carbon atoms only, all rings of which are saturated. Examples of cycloalkyls include, but are not limited to, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cycloheptyl, adamantyl, cyclooctyl, bicycloalkyls, including bicyclooctanes such as [2.2.2]bicyclooctane or [3.3.0]bicyclooctane, bicyclononanes such as [4.3.0]bicyclononane, and bicyclodecanes such as [4.4.0]bicyclodecane (decalin), or spiro compounds. Particular example for cycloalkyl is cycloheyl.
“Halogen” means Cl, F and Br. Particular example of halogen is F and Cl, most particularly Cl.
“Heteroaryl” means a substituted or unsubstituted aromatic heterocyclic ring system containing up to two rings. Preferred heteroaryl groups include, but are not limited to, thienyl (or thiophenyl), furyl, indolyl, pyrrolyl, pyridinyl, pyrazinyl, oxazolyl, thiaxolyl, quinolinyl, pyrimidinyl, imidazolyl, triazolyl and tetrazolyl. Particular example of heteroaryl is thiophenyl.
In the case of a heteroaryl that is bicyclic it should be understood that one ring may be aryl while the other is heteroaryl and both may be independently substituted or unsubstituted.
“Hetero atom” means an atom selected from N, O and S.
“Heterocycle” or “heterocyclic ring” means a substituted or unsubstituted 5 to 10 membered, mono- or bicyclic, non-aromatic hydrocarbon, wherein 1 to 3 carbon atoms are replaced by a hetero atom selected from nitrogen, oxygen or sulfur atom. Examples include pyrrolidinyl, including pyrrolidin-1-yl, pyrrolidin-2-yl and pyrrolidin-3-yl; piperazinyl; piperidinyl; morpholinyl, including morpholin-4-yl; and the like, which in turn can be substituted. Particular examples of heterocyle are piperidinyl, piperazinyl, pyrrolidinyl and morpholinyl.
In the case of a heterocycle that is bicyclic it should be understood that one ring may be heterocycle while the other is cycloalkyl, and either or both may be independently substituted. An example of such a bicyclic heterocycle is 8-oxa-3-aza-bicyclo[3.2.1]octane.
Hydroxy or hydroxyl is a prefix indicating the presence of a monovalent —O—H group.
“IC50” refers to the concentration of a particular compound required to inhibit 50% of a specific measured activity. IC50 can be measured, inter alia, as is described subsequently in Examples 94 and 95.
“Pharmaceutically acceptable,” such as pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, excipient, etc., means pharmacologically acceptable and substantially non-toxic to the subject to which the particular compound is administered.
“Pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to conventional acid-addition salts or base-addition salts that retain the biological effectiveness and properties of the compounds of the present invention and are formed from suitable non-toxic organic or inorganic acids or organic or inorganic bases. Sample acid-addition salts include those derived from inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, hydroiodic acid, sulfuric acid, sulfamic acid, phosphoric acid and nitric acid, and those derived from organic acids such as p-toluenesulfonic acid, salicylic acid, methanesulfonic acid, oxalic acid, succinic acid, citric acid, malic acid, lactic acid, fumaric acid, trifluoroacetic acid and the like. Sample base-addition salts include those derived from ammonium, potassium, sodium and, quaternary ammonium hydroxides, such as for example, tetramethylammonium hydroxide. Chemical modification of a pharmaceutical compound (i.e. drug) into a salt is a technique well known to pharmaceutical chemists to obtain improved physical and chemical stability, hygroscopicity, flowability and solubility of compounds. See, e.g., Ansel et al., Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms and Drug Delivery Systems (1995) at pgs. 456-457.
“Substituted,” as in substituted alkyl, means that the substitution can occur at one or more positions and, unless otherwise indicated, that the substituents at each substitution site are independently selected from the specified options. The term “optionally substituted” refers to the fact that one or more hydrogen atoms of a chemical group (with one or more hydrogen atoms) can be, but does not necessarily have to be, substituted with another substituent.

and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts of the foregoing compounds.
The compounds of formula I, as well as their salts, that have at least one asymmetric carbon atom may be present as racemic mixtures or different stereoisomers. The various isomers can be isolated by known separation methods, e.g., chromatography.
Compounds disclosed herein and covered by formula I above may exhibit tautomerism or structural isomerism. It is intended that the invention encompasses any tautomeric or structural isomeric form of these compounds, or mixtures of such forms, and is not limited to any one tautomeric or structural isomeric form depicted in the formulas above.
Dosages
The compounds of the present invention that are inhibitors of DYRK1B are useful in the treatment, amelioration or control of cell proliferative disorders, in particular chemoprevention of cancer. Chemoprevention is defined as inhibiting the development of invasive cancer by either blocking the initiating mutagenic event or by blocking the progression of pre-malignant cells that have already suffered an insult of inhibiting tumor relapse. These compounds and formulations containing said compounds are anticipated to be particularly useful in the treatment or control of solid tumors, such as, for example, lung, pancreas, colon, breast, bone and prostate tumors.
Compounds that are inhibitors of DYRK1A are useful in the treatment, amelioration or control of Down syndrome and Alzheimer's disease.
A “therapeutically effective amount” or “effective amount” of a compound in accordance with this invention means an amount of compound that is effective to alleviate, ameliorate or control symptoms of disease or prolong the survival of the subject being treated.
The therapeutically effective amount or dosage of a compound according to this invention can vary within wide limits. Such dosage will be adjusted to the individual requirements in each particular case including the specific compound(s) being administered, the route of administration, the condition being treated, as well as the patient being treated. In general, in the case of oral or parenteral administration to adult humans weighing approximately 70 Kg, a daily dosage of about 10 mg to about 10,000 mg, preferably from about 200 mg to about 1,000 mg, should be appropriate, although the upper limit may be exceeded when indicated. The daily dosage can be administered as a single dose or in divided doses, or for parenteral administration; it may be given as continuous infusion.
Compositions/Formulations
In an alternative embodiment, the present invention includes pharmaceutical compositions comprising at least one compound of formula I, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient and/or carrier.
These pharmaceutical compositions can be suitable for oral, nasal, topical (including buccal and sublingual), rectal, vaginal and/or parenteral administration. The formulations may conveniently be presented in unit dosage form and may be prepared by any methods well known in the art of pharmacy. The amount of active ingredient which can be combined with a carrier material to produce a single dosage form will vary depending upon the host being treated, as well as the particular mode of administration. The amount of active ingredient which can be combined with a carrier material to produce a single dosage form will generally be that amount of a formula I compound which produces a therapeutic effect.

General Synthesis of the Compounds According to the Invention
The present invention also provides methods for the synthesis of the pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines of the invention.
The compounds of the invention can be prepared by processes known in the art. Suitable processes for synthesizing these compounds are also provided in the examples. Generally, compounds of formula I can be synthesized according to one of the below described synthetic routes.
The starting materials are either commercially available or can be synthesized by methods known to those of ordinary skill in the art. For compounds of formula Ic where both X and Y are N, in accordance to Scheme 1 below, 5-bromo-2,4-dichloro-pyrimidine (1) is reacted with 2-methylsulfanyl-pyrimidine-4-carbaldehyde (2) by a Grignard reaction and the resulting coupled alcohol is oxidized by manganese dioxide to give the corresponding ketone. This ketone is reacted with hydrazine to form 6-chloro-3-(2-methylsulfanyl-pyrimidin-4-yl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4d]pyrimidine. The remaining chloro group can then be replaced by reacting with the appropriate amine and the sulfide group can be oxidized with peracid followed by displacement with the required amine to give compounds Ic of this invention.
In cases of certain amines that contained additional functional groups, appropriate protecting groups (for example tert-butoxy-carbonyl group) may be employed to facilitate synthesis. If such protecting groups are employed, the removal of such protecting groups to generate the compounds of the invention can be accomplished by standard methods known to those skilled in the art of organic synthesis.







Alternatively, for compounds of formula Ia where X is N and Y is CH, in accordance to Scheme 2 below, 5-bromo-2,4-dichloro-pyrimidine (1) is reacted with 6-bromo-pyridine-2-carbaldehyde (3) by a Grignard reaction and the corresponding coupled alcohol is oxidized to the ketone. The ketone is reacted with hydrazine to give 3-(6-bromo-pyridin-2-yl)-6-chloro-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine. The remaining chloro group can then be replaced by reacting with the appropriate amine and the bromide can be displacement with the required amine under Buckwald conditions to give compounds Ia of this invention.







Compounds of formula I where X is CH and Y is N can be prepared by a process analogous to that shown in Scheme 2 above using the corresponding appropriate bromo-pyridine starting materials.
Alternatively, for compounds of formula Ib where X and Y are CH, in accordance to Scheme 3 below, 5-bromo-2,4-dichloro-pyrimidine (1) is reacted with 3-bromo-benzaldehyde (4) by a Grignard reaction and the corresponding coupled alcohol is oxidized to the ketone. The ketone is reacted with hydrazine to give 3-(3-bromo-phenyl)-6-chloro-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine. The remaining chloro group can then be replaced by reacting with the appropriate amine and the bromide can be displacement with the required amine under Buckwald conditions to give compounds Ib of this invention.

DYRK1B Kinase TR-FRET (IMAP-Tb) Assay
Assay Principle
The kinase TR-FRET (IMAP-Tb) assay uses a fluorescence labeled substrate peptide in the kinase reaction. Upon phosphorylation by the kinase, phosphopeptide is produced, which will be detected by the binding solution provided in IMAP TR-FRET binding kit. After the completion of the kinase reaction, the reaction will be stopped by adding the binding solution containing terbium tracer. This tracer is immobilized on the surface of the IMAP beads, which also contain metal ions on the beads that bind to the phospho-groups of the products. Thus the phosphorylated product of the reaction can enter into close proximity to the tracer, producing resonance energy transfer. Due to the long lifetime of terbium (Tb) fluorescence the detection can be run in time resolved mode, which virtually eliminates fluorescence interference from assay components or compounds.
The TR-FRET signal measurement from this assay, given as an IC50 measurement, is a measure of a test compound's ability to interfere with the phosphorylation of the peptide substrate, that is it inhibits the phosphorylation of the substrate peptide by DYRK1B, and is thus a measure of the test compound's ability to inhibit the activity of DYRK1B. IC50 is the amount of test compound that inhibits 50% of the activity of DYRK1B in this assay. In some cases where the IC50 was not determined, then the % inhibition at 10 μM test compound concentration may be reported. The results of this assay for sample compounds of the invention are provided in Table I below.
