This application claims priority to European Patent Application No. 15170033.3 filed on Jun. 1, 2015, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to novel compounds which act both as muscarinic receptor antagonists and beta2 adrenergic receptor agonists. The present invention also relates to processes for the preparation of such a compound, compositions which contain such a compound, therapeutic uses of such a compound, and combinations of such a compound with other pharmaceutical active ingredients.
Discussion of the Background
Pulmonary disorders, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), are commonly treated with bronchodilators. A well-known class of bronchodilators consists of beta-2 adrenergic receptor agonists, such as salbutamol, fenoterol, formoterol and salmeterol. These compounds are generally administered by inhalation.
Another well-known class of bronchodilators consists of muscarinic receptor antagonists (anticholinergic compounds), such as ipratropium and tiotropium. These compounds are also typically administered by inhalation.
Inhaled formulations of both beta-2 agonists and muscarinic receptor antagonists are valuable agents in the treatment of asthma and COPD, with both classes of agents providing symptomatic relief due to their ability to relax constricted airways. Observations that the bronchodilator effects of the two classes of agents were additive, prompted studies with combinations of the two agents. In 1975, it was shown that that beneficial effects could be achieved by combining two ingredients such as fenoterol and ipratropium bromide in a single aerosol. This prompted the development of fixed dose combinations of ipratropium bromide firstly with fenoterol (Berodual, introduced in 1980), and then with salbutamol (Combivent, introduced in 1994).
More recently the availability of both long-acting muscarinic antagonists and long-acting beta-2 agonists prompted to the development of combinations of these agents.
For example, WO 00/69468, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety, discloses medicament compositions containing a muscarinic receptor antagonist, such as tiotropium bromide, and beta-2 adrenergic receptor agonists, such as formoterol fumarate or salmeterol, and WO 2005/115467, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety, discloses a combination which comprises a beta-2 agonist and an antagonist of M3 muscarinic receptors which is a salt of 3(R)-(2-hydroxy-2,2-dithien-2-ylacetoxy)-1-(3-phenoxypropyl)-1-azoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane.
An alternative approach to the development of fixed dose combinations is the identification of molecules that combine both activities of muscarinic antagonism and beta-2 agonism. In fact compounds possessing both beta-2 adrenergic receptor agonist and muscarinic receptor antagonist activity are highly desirable since such bifunctional compounds would provide bronchodilation through two independent mechanisms of action while having a single molecule pharmacokinetics.
Such kind of compounds are described in some patent applications, such as WO 2004/074246, WO 2004/074812, WO 2005/051946, WO 2006/023457, WO 2006/023460, WO 2010/123766, and WO 2011/048409 and co-pending patent applications WO 2012/168349, WO 2012/168359, WO2014/086924, and WO 2014/086927, all of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties.
However, there remains a need for compounds which possess both beta-2 adrenergic receptor agonist and muscarinic receptor antagonist activity and elevated affinity for the M3 muscarinic receptors and long lasting bronchodilating activity.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
Accordingly, it is one object of the present invention to provide novel compounds which act both as muscarinic receptor antagonists and beta2 adrenergic receptor agonists.
It is another object of the present invention to provide novel processes for the preparation of such a compound.
It is another object of the present invention to provide novel compositions which contain such a compound.
It is another object of the present invention to provided novel therapeutic uses of such a compound.
It is another object of the present invention to provide novel combinations of such a compound with other pharmaceutical active ingredients.
These and other objects, which will become apparent during the following detailed description, have been achieved by the inventors' discovery of compounds of formula I, described below, which act both as muscarinic receptor antagonists and beta2 adrenergic receptor agonists, the processes for the preparation thereof, compositions comprising them, the therapeutic uses and compositions comprising combinations with other pharmaceutical active ingredients among which are, for instance, those currently used in the treatment of respiratory disorders, e.g. corticosteroids, P38 MAP kinase inhibitors, IKK2, HNE inhibitors, PDE4 inhibitors, leukotriene modulators, NSAIDs and mucus regulators.
Thus, it has now been found that some particular aryl or heteroaryl hydroxyacetic ester derivatives, besides possessing both beta-2 adrenergic receptor agonist and muscarinic receptor antagonist activity, possess elevated affinity for the M3 muscarinic receptors and long lasting bronchodilating activity.

The compounds of the invention can be prepared from readily available starting materials using the following general methods and procedures or by using other information readily available to those of ordinary skill in the art. Although a particular embodiment of the present invention may be shown or described herein, those skilled in the art will recognize that all embodiments or aspects of the present invention can be prepared using the methods described herein or by using other methods, reagents and starting materials known to those skilled in the art. It will also be appreciated that where typical or preferred process conditions (i.e., reaction temperatures, times, mole ratios of reactants, solvents, pressures, etc.) are given other process conditions can also be used unless otherwise stated. While the optimum reaction conditions may vary depending on the particular reactants or solvent used, such conditions can be readily determined by one skilled in the art by routine optimization procedures.
Compounds of general formula I may be prepared according to the following synthetic Scheme 1a and Scheme 1b.








General Procedure for the Preparation of Compounds of Formula I

Compounds of general formula I are compounds in which Y is a divalent group of formula Y1 or Y2. Although groups Y1 and Y2 are different, the approach to be considered for the synthesis of compounds of formula I in which Y is Y1 or Y2 is similar and mainly depends on the functional group present in the linker Y. It is evident for a person skilled in the art that the following synthesis described for Y2 can be extended with minor modification to Y1. In the schemes above Q is




Compounds of general formula I can be prepared for example according to scheme 1a, by reaction of a compound of general formula XI with a compound of general formula XVI. This reductive amination reaction can be performed following several different protocols described in the literature and well known for those skilled in the art. For example, it can be performed in solvent such as methanol, ethanol, tetrahydrofuran (THF) or dichloromethane (DCM) using a reducing agent such as NaBH4, NaCNBH3 or NaB(AcO)3H. It could be useful to perform the imine before adding the reducing agent. The reaction proceeds smoothly at room temperature (RT) over 1 to 12 hours.
The compound of general formula XI can be prepared according to scheme 1 b. The intermediate of general formula X represents a compound wherein A1 is alkylene substituted with oxo, leading to an aldehyde or ketone protected as cyclic acetal. The cyclic acetal-protecting group (PG) can be removed leading to the compound of general formula XI.
The intermediate of general formula X can be easily prepared by reaction of a compound of general formula VIII with a compound of formula IX under the well-known condensation conditions for the preparation of amides. The reaction occurs smoothly in an aprotic polar solvent such as ACN, THF or DMF at room or higher temperature in the presence of a condensing agent such as for example EDC, DCC, HATU.
Alternatively, a compound of formula XI can be prepared, using same reaction conditions described above for the preparation of compound of formula X, reacting a compound of formula VIII with an aldehyde of formula XII.
Compound of formula XII and IX can be prepared using similar approach, as IX is XII protected as cyclic acetal. Their preparation can be accomplished using a wide variety of approaches that strongly depend on the nature of functional groups present. An example that allows the preparation of compound of formula XII wherein C is —O-involves the reaction of a compound of formula XIII with a compound of formula XIV. The reaction can be performed for example under the well-known Mitsunobu reaction condition in which an alkylic alcohol is reacted with a phenol derivative in an aprotic solvent such as, but not limited to, THF, in the presence of DIAD (or DEAD) and an organic phosphine, such as for example triphenyl phosphine. The reaction is normally performed at low temperature and completes in time ranging from 1 h to few days at room temperature. Alternatively, the hydroxyl moiety of the alkylic alcohol can be converted into a suitable leaving group such us for example chloride, bromide, mesylate or tosylate, just to mention the most common examples, leading to a compound of general formula XV. This compound can be easily reacted under alkylation of phenols with compound XIII. The reaction is normally performed in polar solvents such as DMF, THF, CAN or DMSO and often requires temperature higher than room temperature to complete over a period of time ranging from 0.5 to 48 hours. Both approaches lead to esters derivatives that are converted into XII under acidic or basic conditions.
A compound of formula VIII cab be obtained by esterification of a compound of formula IV with a compound of formula HO—(CH2)s—R2 under the well-known condensation conditions for the preparation of esters. The reaction occurs smoothly in an aprotic polar solvent such as DCM, THF or DMF at room or higher temperature in the presence of a condensing agent such as for example EDC, DCC, HATU. Alternatively the acid IV can be converted into the corresponding acyl chloride (e.g. with COCl2 in DMC) or imidazolide (with CDI in DCM or DMF) and then treated with HO—(CH2)s—R2. The removal of the protecting group present on the nitrogen atom depends on the protecting group used and can be found in the literature as described above.
Compound of formula IV are commercially available or it can be prepared with a method that depends on the dimension of the nitrogen containing ring. For example, the synthesis of compound of formula IV in which i=i′=1 involves the reaction of a compound of formula II with an aryl bromide of formula III. The reaction occurs in an aprotic solvent such as for example toluene, in the presence of a strong base such as for example, but not limited to, LiHMDS and a catalytic amount of palladium catalyst such as Pd2(dba)3 and an organic phosphine such as Bu3P stabilized as HBF4 salt. The obtained compound is converted into IV by mean of a hydrolysis of the ester moiety.
The synthesis of compound of formula IV wherein i=i′=2 can be accomplished using the same reaction described above for compound wherein i=i′=1 or reacting a compound of formula V with a bifunctional reactant of formula VI. The reaction requires treating a compound of formula V with a base such as for example NaH in a solvent such as DMF or toluene. The reaction may require temperature higher room temperature up to 100° C. and complete in 1 to 24 hours. A valid alternative is to perform the reaction on a compound of formula V in which the ester moiety is substituted with a cyano group, more stable in the presence of bases. In both cases the product obtained after reaction with compound of formula VI wherein i=i′=2 has to be hydrolysed to convert the ester (or the cyano) into the carboxylic acid moiety present in compound of formula IV.
In another embodiment of the present invention, compound of formula I can be prepared by reaction of compound of formula XIX with a compound of formula VIII (scheme 1a). The reaction is performed under the known reaction condition for the formation of amides as described above for the preparation of a compound of formula X.
Intermediate of formula XIX can be synthesized using different synthetic approaches. For example it can be prepared reacting compound of formula XVII with an intermediate of formula XXII that represents the linker connecting the two heads of the molecule. The leaving group LG in compound XVII, usually chloride or bromine, is easily substituted by the nucleophilic moiety NH2 in XXII. The reaction is performed under condition similar to those described for the reaction of compound XIII with compound XV to give compound XII, and leads to the alkyl ester derivatives of XIX. The ester is easily hydrolyzed under basic or acid aqueous conditions leading to the desired XIX. The protection of the reactive NH (and OH if needed) has to be considered to limit the formation of by-products.
Compound XIX can be also synthesized using a different approach, reacting first a compound of formula XVII with a compound of formula XXIII under the nucleophilic substitution reaction condition leading to a compound of formula XXIV that, by mean of reaction with a compound of formula XXV followed by hydrolysis of the ester, gives compound of formula XIX. Reaction of XXIV with XXV can be performed under the same conditions described for the reaction of compound XIII with XIV.
Compound of formula XIX can also be prepared reacting compound of formula XVI with a compound of formula XXI under nucleophilic substitution reaction conditions described above. Also in this case the first step provides the ester that is hydrolyzed, as previously described, to give the required compound XIX.
Compound of formula XVI can be also converted into XIX by mean of reductive amination condition with compound of formula XX, followed, as clearly understood by a person skilled in the art, by hydrolysis of the ester. The reaction is performed as described for the conversion of compound XI into compound of formula I.
Compounds of general formula XVI can be obtained by simple reduction of the azide of formula XVIII. The reaction can be accomplished by mean of a catalytic hydrogenation in the presence Palladium catalyst. The reaction occurs, in polar solvent such as methanol or ethanol, under hydrogen atmosphere or under hydrogen transfer conditions, using for example 1,4-cyclohexadiene or 1-methyl1,4-cyclohexadiene as source of hydrogen. The reaction proceeds at room temperature. In case it is performed under hydrogen transfer conditions higher temperature can be required. Alternatively, the conversion can be accomplished under Staudinger reaction conditions, reacting the azide for example with triphenyl phosphine, and then with water to hydrolase the formed phosphazene.
The azide XVIII can be easily prepared from XVII, in most of the case featuring the OH protected as silyl ether, by the well-known nucleophilic substitution of alkyl bromide with alkaline azide. The reaction proceeds at a temperature ranging from 50 to 80° C. and in a polar solvent such as for example DMF of NMP and can be accelerated by the presence of alkaline iodide.
Compound of formula XXIV can be also alternatively used for the preparation of compound of formula I by reaction with compound of formula XXVI.
The synthesis of compounds of general formula I may require the protection of potential reactive functionalities in addition to those methods already described (e.g. for intermediate X). In such a case, examples of compatible protecting groups (PG) and their particular methods of protection and deprotection are described in “Protecting groups in organic Synthesis” by T. W. Green and P. Wutz (Wiley-Interscience publication, 1999), which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
It is evident for a person skilled in the art that compounds IX, XII, XX, XXI and XXII represent a linker for the connection of two portions of the molecule. The variety of functional groups that could be present in these linkers is broad. Some possible examples of synthesis have been provided above, but these are just representative of possible approaches and they have not to be considered limiting the scope of the present invention. The synthesis of the linker and the sequence of synthetic steps depend on the functional groups present and on the availability of suitable reagents.
It is apparent for those skilled in the art that compounds of general formula I wherein R2 is J1, J2 or J5 contain two stereogenic centers, as indicated below (wherein e.g. J=J1) with the symbol *. This means that the structure of formula I is characterized by different stereoisomers.




Each diastereoisomer can be obtained theoretically by chromatographic separation of the mixture obtained by reacting racemic mixtures of the required intermediates. It is clear that this approach it is not convenient and that it can be used only for the separation of mixtures containing few diastereoisomers.
In a more convenient approach, the synthesis of each single stereoisomer can be accomplished using, in the reactions described above, only enantiomerically pure intermediates.
The enantiomerically pure alcohol required for the preparation of compounds of general formula I wherein R2 is J1, J2 or J5 are commercially available. The preparation of single enantiomerically pure compounds of general formula XVII wherein LG is bromine is described in WO2005/092861, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety (cited in WO2007/107228, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety).
Other features of the invention will become apparent in the course of the following descriptions of exemplary embodiments which are given for illustration of the invention and are not intended to be limiting thereof.

Preparative Reverse-Phase HPLC Conditions

Post-synthesis all compounds were purified using reverse phase HPLC. The column used for the preparative purification of the compounds was a Waters Sunfire OBD, Phenomenex Luna Phenyl Hexyl or Waters Xbridge Phenyl at 10 um 19×150. All compounds were screen analytically prior to the purification step. Each sample was run under both acidic and basic conditions. As it is common practice, the best method and conditions to be used for the purification was chosen depending on where the desired product elutes and the separation achieved.
The modifier used in the purification determined the final salt form obtained (e.g. formate or trifluoroacetate).
Where the preparation of starting materials is not described, these are commercially available, known in the literature, or readily obtainable by those skilled in the art using standard procedures.
Many of the compounds described in the following examples have been prepared from stereochemically pure starting materials, for example 95% ee.
The stereochemistry of the compounds in the Examples, where indicated, has been assigned on the assumption that absolute configuration at resolved stereogenic centers of starting materials is maintained throughout any subsequent reaction conditions.
When reference is made to the use of a “similar” or “analogous” procedure, as will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, such a procedure may involve minor variations, for example reaction temperature, reagent/solvent amount, reaction time, work-up conditions or chromatographic purification conditions.







Intermediate 1. (R)-5-(2-Amino-1-hydroxyethyl)-8-hydroxyquinolin-2(1H)-one hydrochloride




Step 1. 8-(Benzyloxy)-5-(2-bromoacetyl)quinolin-2(1H)-one




To a suspension of 5-acetyl-8-(benzyloxy)quinolin-2(1H)-one (19.4 g, 66.4 mmol) in anhydrous THF (240 mL) and anhydrous methanol (165 mL) was added a solution of tetra-n-butylammonium tribromide (54.5 g, 113.0 mmol) in anhydrous THF (130 mL) drop-wise over 1.5 hours. The resulting solution was stirred at room temperature overnight before concentrating under reduced pressure without heating. The residue was re-dissolved in methanol (200 mL). Saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution (390 mL) was added with ice-cooling. The resulting suspension was filtered and the solid washed with water and air-dried under vacuum. The solid was suspended in DCM and methanol (1:1 v/v, 100 mL) for 90 minutes. The solid was collected by filtration, washed with DCM and air-dried to afford the title compound (18.0 g, 73%).
1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6): δ 11.07 (s, 1H), 8.51 (d, J=10.0 Hz, 1H), 7.94-7.83 (m, 1H), 7.60 (d, J=7.5 Hz, 2H), 7.44-7.27 (m, 4H), 6.79-6.65 (m, 1H), 5.53-5.39 (s, 2H), 4.93 (s, 2H)
Step 2. (R)-8-(Benzyloxy)-5-(2-bromo-1-hydroxyethyl)quinolin-2(1H)-one




8-(Benzyloxy)-5-(2-bromoacetyl)quinolin-2(1H)-one (26.0 g, 69.9 mmol) and (R)-3,3-diphenyl-1-methyltetrahydro-3H-pyrrolo[1,2-c][1,3,2]oxazaborole (21.3 g, 76.8 mmol) were azeotroped with toluene (×3) then suspended in anhydrous THF (400 mL) under an atmosphere of nitrogen. The suspension was cooled to −20° C. (external temperature) and borane dimethyl sulfide complex solution (45.4 mL, 90.8 mmol, 2.0 M solution in THF) was added by syringe pump over 3 hours. After complete addition the reaction mixture was stirred for one hour before quenching with methanol (25 mL). The reaction was warmed to room temperature over 20 minutes. The mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was suspended in aqueous hydrochloric acid (500 mL, 1 M solution) and stirred at room temperature for 18 hours. After this time the solid was collected by filtration and washed with water (3×100 mL). The solid was partially dissolved in ethyl acetate and heated at reflux for 2 hours. The remaining solid was removed by hot filtration and the filtrate was evaporated to afford the title compound. The solid collected from the hot ethyl acetate was again partially dissolved in ethyl acetate and heated at reflux for 2 hours then filtered to give filtrate containing pure product. This process was repeated four more times. The combined solid was recrystallised from ethyl acetate and petroleum ether to afford the title compound (20.0 g, 76%).
1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d6): δ 10.68 (s, 1H), 8.19 (d, J=9.9 Hz, 1H), 7.58 (d, J=7.5 Hz, 2H), 7.41-7.36 (m, 2H), 7.34-7.29 (m, 1H), 7.23-7.19 (m, 2H), 6.57 (d, J=9.8 Hz, 1H), 5.94 (d, J=4.7 Hz, 1H), 5.31 (s, 2H); 5.25-5.19 (m, 1H), 3.71-3.58 (m, 2H).
Step 3. (R)-8-(Benzyloxy)-5-(2-bromo-1-((tert-butyldimethylsilyl)oxy)ethyl)quinolin-2(1H)-one




2,6-Lutidine (6.9 mL, 59.5 mmol) was added to a solution of (R)-8-(benzyloxy)-5-(2-bromo-1-hydroxyethyl)quinolin-2(1H)-one (10.1 g, 27.0 mmol) in DCM (100 mL) at 0° C. The reaction mixture was stirred for 5 minutes then tert-butyldimethylsilyl trifluoromethanesulfonate (13.0 mL, 56.8 mmol) was added dropwise over 15 minutes. The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 30 minutes, followed by room temperature overnight. After this time the reaction was quenched with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and extracted with DCM (×3). The combined organic extracts were dried (magnesium sulfate), filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. Iso-hexane (500 mL) was added to the crude material and the resulting solid collected by filtration. The solid was recrystallised from ethyl acetate and petroleum ether (40:60) to afford the title compound (11.3 g, 85%).
1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 9.19 (s, 1H), 8.23 (dd, J=9.9, 4.4 Hz, 1H), 7.43 (d, J=4.6 Hz, 5H), 7.17 (dd, J=8.3, 4.5 Hz, 1H), 7.03 (dd, J=8.2, 4.4 Hz, 1H), 6.71 (dd, J=9.9, 3.7 Hz, 1H), 5.18 (d, J=4.5 Hz, 3H), 3.63-3.56 (m, 1H), 3.49 (dd, J=10.4, 4.8 Hz, 1H), 0.88 (t, J=4.4 Hz, 9H), 0.14 (d, J=4.4 Hz, 3H), −0.11 (d, J=4.4 Hz, 3H).
Step 4. R)-5-(2-Azido-1-((tert-butyldimethylsilyl)oxy)ethyl)-8-(benzyloxy)quinolin-2(1H)-one




(R)-8-(Benzyloxy)-5-(2-bromo-1-((tert-butyldimethylsilyl)oxy)ethyl)-quinolin-2(1H)-one (10.0 g, 20.5 mmol) was dissolved in DMF (180 mL) and water (20 mL). Sodium iodide (3.39 g, 22.6 mmol) and sodium azide (1.47 g, 22.6 mmol) were added sequentially. The reaction mixture was stirred at RT until all the solid was in solution. The solution was heated at 80° C. for 40 hours then cooled to RT and diluted with ethyl acetate (300 mL).

Biological Characterization

M3 Receptor Radioligand Binding Assay

Human M3 receptor membranes (15 ug/well) from Perkin Elmer were incubated with 0.52 nM Scopolamine Methyl Chloride, (N-methyl-3H) with or without test compounds, or a saturating concentration of Atropine (5 μM) for the determination of non-specific binding. The assay was carried out in 96-well polypropylene plates in a volume of 250 ul. The assay buffer used was 50 mM Tris-HCl, 154 mM NaCl (pH 7.4). The final assay concentration of DMSO was 0.5% (v/v). The plates were sealed and incubated for 2 h at room temperature on an orbital shaker (slow speed). Membranes were harvested onto 96-well unifilter GF/C filter plates pre-treated with 0.5% polyethyleneimine (v/v), using a filter manifold, washed four times with 200 ul of assay buffer. The plates were dried before addition of 50 μl of microscint-0, sealed then read in a Trilux Microbeta scintillation counter. 1050 values are determined from competition curves using a non-linear curve fitting program. Ki values were calculated from 1050 values by the Cheng and Prusoff equation.
The Ki values of the compounds according to the invention are less than 50 nM, most of them even less than 10 nM.
β2 Adrenoceptor Radioligand Binding Assay
Human β2 adrenoceptor membranes (7.5 ug/well) from Perkin Elmer were incubated with 0.3 nM 125-I Cyanopindolol with or without test compounds, or a saturating concentration of s-propranolol (2 μM) for the determination of non-specific binding. The assay was carried out in 96-well polypropylene plates in a volume of 200 ul. The assay buffer used was 25 mM HEPES, 0.5% BSA (w/v), 1 mM EDTA, 0.02% ascorbic acid (v/v), (pH 7.4). The final assay concentration of DMSO was 0.5% (v/v). The plates were sealed and incubated for 1 h at room temperature on an orbital shaker (slow speed). Membranes were harvested onto 96-well unifilter GF/C filter plates pre-treated with 0.5% polyethyleneimine (v/v), using a filter manifold, washed six times with 200 ul of wash buffer containing 10 mM HEPES and 500 mM NaCl. The plates were dried before addition of 50 μl of microscint-0, sealed then read in a Trilux Microbeta scintillation counter. IC50 values are determined from competition curves using a non-linear curve fitting program. Ki values were calculated from IC50 values by the Cheng and Prusoff equation.
The Ki values of the compounds according to the invention are less than 50 nM, most of them even less than 10 nM.
