Abstract: A solid support template for solid phase synthesis of amino group containing compounds is provided that comprises amino-ketone core compounds of the general formula: A-L-NH(CR1R2)nCOR3 linked to appropriate insoluble substrates to create solid support templates having the general formula: Polymer-X-L-NH(CR1R2)nCOR3 where L is a multifunctional monomer carrying a first functional group that forms a covalent bond with X and a second functional group comprising an amine and L, R1, R2 and R3 are selected from the group consisting of alkyl, alkyl-aryl, alkenyl, alkenyl-aryl groups having up to 6 carbon atoms and substituted forms thereof. The amino-ketones templates are useful for the solid phase synthesis of compounds such as the imidazoles, benzodiazepines, pyrazines, and steroid mimics.

Description: AMINO-KETONE SOLID SUPPORT TEMPLATES Field of the Invention: The present invention relates to amino-ketone templates linked to insoluble materials and methods for producing products generated through a plurality of chemical reactions utilizing amino-ketone templates on solid support. Background of the Invention The use of solid phase synthesis techniques for the synthesis of polypeptides and oligonudeotides is well known in the art. More recently, the use of solid phase techniques for the synthesis of small organic molecules has become a major focus of research. Of prime importance has been the ability of solid phase techniques to be automated, with an attendant increase in compound throughput and efficiency in research. This has been exploited with great vigor in the area of pharmaceutical research where it has been estimated that 10,000 compounds must be synthesized and tested in order to find one new drug (Science, 259, 1564, 1993). The focus on combinatorial chemistry techniques to increase compound throughput has now become almost universal in the pharmaceutical and agricultural industries. An additional aspect relates to the chemical diversity of the compound stocks that are available for screening in pharmaceutical companies in the search for new lead structures. These have tended to be limited to the classes of compounds previously investigated through medicinal chemical techniques within each company. Therefore the availability of new classes of molecules for screening has become a major need. The movement of a chemical reaction from a single reaction in a flask to an experiment producing hundreds or thousands of molecules of varied structure simultaneously in a robot in not a simple process. Consequently, although many classes of organic reactions have now been shown to work on solid phase, a great deal of research is required in order to optimize each new reaction that a chemist wants to undergo this conversion. This optimization phase has become the major stumbling block and the major time-consuming element in modern solid phase combinatorial chemistry research. In view of the above, the field of pharmaceutical and agricultural research has a strong need for highly flexible routes to novel classes of compounds for screening and clinical testing. The principle object of this patent is to provide an exceptionally flexible process for the high throughput production of many classes of organic molecules. Some of the chemical ring systems attainable through this technology are completely novel and some of the ring systems have value as known, pharmacologically useful agents. Summary of the Invention: The present invention relates to amino-ketone core compounds of the general formula: A-L-NH(CRιR 2 ) n COR 3 linked to appropriate insoluble substrates to create solid support templates of Formula 1. Polymer-X-L-NH(CRιR 2 )nCOR 3 (Formula 1) Amino-ketone core compounds allow for the production of compounds that heretofore have not been prepared or prepared with great difficulty and expense. However, subjecting such amino-ketone core compounds to a series of chemical reactions in order to create useful compounds using conventional solution chemistry is not practical due to their chemical reactivity. In solution, amino ketone molecules have the ability to undergo self condensation reactions (one molecule would react with another molecule through the amine or the carbonyl moieties) which lead to various complications in the desired chemical transformations. For example, as illustrated by Scheme 1 below, attempts to react l-methylamino-butan-2-one A with N-methyl benzyl amine in the presence of an acid provided a mixture of reaction products. Compound B resulted from a self-condensation reaction between two molecules of compound A Methylamino-butan-2 Mixture of Products Scheme 1 These types of self-condensation reactions can be initiated under neutral, acidic or basic conditions. Although highly suited for use in the production of a variety of therapeutic products, the use of amino-ketones in solution chemistry to create useful compounds has been very limited because of the formation of mixed products as discussed above. The present invention provides a solution to this problem by having the amino ketone linked to a suitable polymer to create intermediate compounds of Formula 1 that are then further reacted in accordance with solid support methods to form the desired compound. By linkage of the self-reactive amino ketone molecule to a polymer, one achieves isolation of that molecule from other like molecules and one is thereby able to carry out only the desired modifications on said intermediate with other reagents. Thus, a person who is skilled in the art of organic chemistry then is able to assemble therapeutically useful compounds through a plurality of chemical transformations using templates of Formula 1. This strategy will circumvent the inherent problems and limitations associated with the attempted use of amino ketone chemistry in solution. In accordance with the invention amino-ketone compounds of general Formula 1 B-L-NHPtg Polymer-A ( 4 ) Polymer-X-L-NHPtg (2) (1) 1) Deprotection 2) R3CO(CR1 R2)nBr 1 (5) Polymer-X-L-NH(CR1 R2)nCOR3 Formula 1 Scheme 2 are synthesized according to the following general reaction sequence: Reaction of polymer-A (1) with a series of monomers (4) in which the NH group is protected. The reaction is carried out in the presence of the appropriate reagents to form compound (2) which undergo alkylation with R 3 CO(CRιR 2 ) n Br, (5) (n= 1, 2), to provide the desired solid support polymeric template of Formula 1. This invention further relates to a method utilizing the novel amino-ketone templates of the invention for the production of compounds for screening as therapeutically useful compounds. The ease of purification and automation of solid support synthesis of peptides (Atherton, E.; Sheppard, RC; Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis: A Practical Approach; IRL Press at Oxford University Press: Oxford 1989) and non-peptide-based molecules (Lenzoff, C.C; Ace. Chem. Res., 1978, 11, 327-333) gives several advantages to solid support synthesis over solution chemistry. Solid support synthesis of combinatorial libraries has yielded many biologically active compounds (Moos, W. H. et al.; Annu. Rep. Med. Chem., 1993, 28, 315-324; Terrett, NX; Gardner, M.; Gordon, D. W.; Kobylecki, R. J.; Steele, J.; Tetrahedron 1995, 51, 8135-73). Solid support synthesis is carried out on a substrate consisting of a polymer, cross- linked polymer, functionalized polymeric pin, or other insoluble material. These polymers or insoluble materials have been described in literature and are known to those who are skilled in the art of solid phase synthesis (Stewart JM, Young J.D.; Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis, 2nd Ed; Pierce Chemical Company: Rockford. Illinois, 1984). Some of them are based on polymeric organic substrates such as polyethylene, polystyrene, polypropylene, polyethylene glycol, polyacrylamide, and cellulose. Additional types of supports include composite structures such as grafted copolymers and polymeric substrates such as polyacrylamide supported within an inorganic matrix such as kieselghuhr particles, silica gel, and controlled pore glass. Such polymers are substituted with linkers that modulate the stability of the linkage to the resin. The linkers incorporate reactive functionalities (A), (e.g. amino, hydroxy, oximino, phenolic, silyl, etc.) for loading of monomers suitable for carrying out a plurality of further reactions to synthesize the desired products (Hemkens, P. H. H.; Ottenheijm, H. C. J.; Rees, D.; Tetrahedron Lett. 1996, 52, 4527-54). Examples of suitable support resins and linkers are given in various reviews (Barany, G.; Merrifield, R.B. "Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis", in "The Peptides - Analysis, Synthesis, Biology. Vol 2," [Gross, E. and Meienhofer, J., Eds.], Academic Press, Inc., New York, 1979, pp 1-284; Backes, B. J.; Ellman, J. A. Curr. Opin. Chem. Biol. 1997. 1, 86.) and in commercial catalogs (Advanced ChemTech, Louisville, KY; Novabiochem, San Diego, CA). Some examples of particularly useful functionalized resin/linker combinations that are meant to be illustrative and not limiting in scope are shown below: 1 Merrifield resin - Chloromethyl co-poly(styrene-l or 2%-divinylbenzene) which can be represented as: 2 Benzhydryla or 2%-divinylbenzene) which referred to as the BHA resin 3 Methyl benzhydrylamine copoly(styrene-l or 2%-divinylbenzene) which is referred to as MBHA and represented as: 4. Argogel resins Some additional resins that are useful in specialized situations are: 5. Trityl and functionalized Trityl resins, such as 2-chlorotrityl resin (Barlos, K.; Gatos, D.; Papapholiu, G.; Schafer, W.; Wenqing, Y.; Tetrahedron Lett. 1989, 30, 3947). 6. Sieber amide resin (Sieber, P.; Tetrahedron Lett. 1987, 28, 2107). 7. Wang resin (Wang, S. S.; 1 Am. Chem. Soc. 1973, 95, 1328-1333). 8. Oxime resin (DeGrado, W.F.; Kaiser, E.T.; J.Org. Chem. 1982, 47, 3258). 9. Polyoxyethylene grafted (Tentagel) resins (Rapp, W.; Zhang, L; Habich, R.; Bayer, E. in "Peptides 1988; Proc. 20^ European Peptide Symposium" [Jung,G. and Bayer, E., Eds.], Walter de Gruyter, Berlin, 1989, pp 199-201). 10. Safety catch resins (see resin reviews above; Backes, B.J.; Virgilio, A.A.; Ellman, 1 A.; J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1996, 118, 3055-6). 11. Photolabile resins (e.g. Abraham, N. A. et al.; Tetrahedron Lett. 1991, 32, 577). 12. Rink acid resin (Rink, H.; Tetrahedron Lett. 1987, 28, 3787). 13. HPPB-BHA resin (4-hydroxymethyl-3-methoxyphenoxybutyric acid-BHA Florsheimer, A.; Riniker, B. in "Peptides 1990; Proceedings of the 21 st European Peptide Symposium" [Giralt, E. and Andreu, D. Eds.], ESCOM, Leiden, 1991, pp 131). 14. Resins with silicon linkage (Chenera, B.; Finkelstein, J.A.; Veber, D.F.; J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1995, 117, 11999-12000; Woolard, F. X.; Paetsch, J.; Ellman, J. A.; J. Org. Chem. 1997, 62, 6102-3). 15. PEGA resins (Bis 2-acrylamidoprop-l-yl polyethyleneglycol crosslinked dimethyl acrylamide and acryloyl sarcosine methyl ester) (Meldal, M.; Tetrahedron Letters 1992, 33, 3077). Another type of solid phase synthesis method is the "pin method" developed by Geysen et al., for combinatorial solid-phase peptide synthesis (Geysen et al.; J. Immunol. Meth. (1987) 102:259-274). According to this method, as it may be practiced in the present invention, a series of 96 pins are mounted on a block in an arrangement and spacing which correspond to a 96-well microtiter reaction plate, and the surface of each pin is derivatized to contain a terminal linker functional groups. The pin block is then lowered into a series of reaction plates to immerse the pins in the wells of the plates where coupling occurs at the terminal linker functional groups, and a plurality of further reactions are carried out in a similar fashion. Reagents varying in their substituent groups occupy the wells of each plate in a predetermined array, to achieve as ultimate products, a unique product on each pin. By using different combinations of substituents, one achieves a large number of different compounds with an array of central core structures. A related method of synthesis uses porous polyethylene bags (Tea Bag method) containing the functionalized solid phase resins referred to above (Houghton, R.A., et al., Nature, 354, 84-86, 1991). These bags of resin can be moved from one reaction vessel to another in order to undergo a series of reaction steps for the synthesis of libraries of products. For purposes of this patent, we also define the use of solubilizable resins that can be rendered insoluble during the synthesis process as Solid Phase supports. Although this technique is frequently referred to as "Liquid Phase Synthesis", the critical aspect for our process is the isolation of individual amino ketone molecules from each other on the resin and the ability to wash away excess reagents following a reaction sequence. This also is achieved by attachment to resins that can be solubilized under certain solvent and reaction conditions and rendered insoluble for isolation of reaction products from reagents. This latter approach, (Vandersteen, A. M.; Han, H.; Janda, K. D.; Molecular Diversity, 1996, 2, 89-96.) uses high molecular weight polyethyleneglycol as a solubilizable polymeric support and its use is also incorporated into this patent. Among the reaction sequences carried out by the method of the present invention is the formation of the amide bond. Many suitable reagents are known to the art to be suitable for this reaction sequence (i.e. Stewart JM, Young J.D.; Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis, 2nd Ed; Pierce Chemical Company: Rockford. Illinois, 1984). Among the many reagents available, some particularly useful reagents are: dialkylcarbodiimide with an additive such as 1-hydroxybenzotriazole, especially diispropylcarbodiimide/l-hydroxy-7- azabenzotriazole and the like (DIC/HABT); benzotriazol-l-yloxytris-(dimethylamino)- phosphonium hexafluorophosphate (BOP); O-benzotriazolo-N,N,N',N'-tetramethyluronium hexafluorophosphate (HBTU); Bromo-tris-pyrrolidinophosphonium hexafluorophosphate (PyBrOP), Fmoc amino acid fluorides (Carpino, L.A., et al. 9-Fluoroenylmethyloxycarbonyl (FMOC) Amino Acid Fluorides. Convenient New Peptide Coupling Reagents Applicable to the FMOC/tert-Butyl Strategy For Solution and Solid-Phase Synthesis, J. Am. Chem.Soc, 1990, 112, pp 9651-2) and the like. The degree of steric hindrance, reactivity of the amine, and other factors may determine which reagent will be most suitable for a particular substrate, but many of the reagents will give a suitable result for most reactions. As is conventional, the amide group is protected until it is to be utilized in a reaction sequence. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that any of the wide variety of available amino protecting groups may be used such as the tert-Butyloxycarbonyl (Boc), Fluorenylmethyloxycarbonyl (Fmoc), and the like. The choice of a particular protecting group will depend on the specific nature of the substituents and reactions contemplated. Also, more than one type of protecting group may be necessary at any given point in the synthesis (see, e.g., Green, T. and Wuts, P. G. M.; Protective Groups In Organic Synthesis 2 ND ED., Wiley, 1991 and references therein). Cleavage from the solid support can be carried out using one of a number of well- known and convenient procedures (e.g. Stewart, J.M.; Young J.D.; Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis, 2nd Ed; Pierce Chemical Company: Rockford. Illinois, 1984; Barany, G.; Merrifield, R.B. "Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis", in "The Peptides - Analysis, Synthesis, Biology. Vol 2," [Gross, E. and Meienhofer, 1, Eds.], Academic Press, Inc., New York, 1979, pp 1-284). Among these procedures are various acidolytic, based-catalyzed, reductive, photolytic, and self-cleavage techniques. The conditions used for the popular acidolytic cleavage procedures depends on the particular choice of resin/linker combination used for the synthesis. For example, cleavage may be carried out under conditions utilizing HOAC/CH 2 CI 2 (Rink Acid resin), 5% CF 3 CO 2 H (2-chlorotrityl resin), 25% CF 3 CO 2 H (Wang resin), anhydrous HF or mixtures of CF 3 SO 3 H/CF 3 CO 2 H (Merrifield resin). Ester resin linkages can be cleaved under nucleophilic conditions to yield, for example, amides (R-NH2/ CH 3 OH), esters (CH 3 OH/Et3N), hydrazides (N 2 H 4 /DMF), etc. Catalytic transfer hydrogenation (Pd[OAc] 2/HCO 2 H) has been used to reductively cleave esters from benzylic linkages on resins (Babiker, E.; Anantharamaiah, G. M.; Royer, G. P.; Means; G. E. J. Org. Chem. 1979, 44, 3442-4). A particularly useful nucleophilic cleavage entails a self-cleavage by a functional group in the molecule being synthesized, leading to the formation of a ring system. An example would be attack by an amine function in the compound being synthesized upon the ester linkage to the resin to lead to a new amide function in the target molecule. Such a cleavage step has advantages in that no harsh reagents are required and it may serve as a purification step since impurities lacking the amino function will not be cleaved from the resin. The above examples are merely illustrative of the many suitable cleavage techniques that are documented in review articles such as those above, are well known to those skilled in the art of solid phase synthesis, and are meant to illustrate but not limit the scope of the disclosure.

Accordingly, the organic chemist will choose the solid phase template to be compatible with the solvents and reaction conditions that are used to create the final molecule of interest. The final step in the solid phase synthesis is the cleavage of the desired compounds from the polymeric support (i.e. Polymer-X-L-monomer, wherein the monomer is obtained by reacting compounds of Formula 1 with a plurality of chemical transformations) as described above to provide polymer-A (insoluble) and B-L-monomer. The cleavage can be carried out under acidic conditions such as by way of example and without limitation, using CF 3 CO 2 H or under basic/nucleophilic conditions, for example utilizing dimethyl amine and hydroxylamine as the cleaving agent.

EXAMPLES The following examples are by way of illustration of various aspects of the present invention and are not intended to be limiting thereof. General Procedures-Reagent Systems and Test Methods Anhydrous solvents were purchased from Aldrich Chemical Company and used directly. Resins were purchased from Advanced ChemTech, Louisville, Kentucky, and used directly. The loading level ranged from 1.1 to 0.35 mmol/g. Unless otherwise noted, reagents were obtained from commercial suppliers and used without further purification. Preparative thin layer chromatography was preformed on silica gel precoated glass plates (Whatman PK5F, 150 A, 1000 μm) and visualized with UV light, and/or ninhydrin, p- anisaldehyde, ammonium molybdate, or ferric chloride. NMR spectra were obtained on a Varian Mercury 300 MHz spectrometer. Chemical shifts are reported in ppm. Unless otherwise noted, spectra were obtained in CDC with residual CHCI 3 as an internal standard at 7.26 ppm. IR spectra were obtained on a Midac M1700 and absorbances are listed in inverse centimeters. HPLC/MS analysis were performed on a Hewlett Packard 1100 with a photodiode array detector coupled to a Micromass Platform II electrospray mass spectrometer. An evaporative light scattering detector (Sedex 55) was also incorporated for more accurate evaluation of sample purity. Reverse phase columns were purchased from YMC, Inc. (ODS-A, 3 μm, 120 A, 4.0 x 50 mm). Solvent system A consisted of 97.5% MeOH, 2.5% H 2 O, and 0.05% TFA. Solvent system B consisted of 97.5% H 2 O, 2.5% MeOH, and 0.05% TFA. Samples were typically acquired at a mobile phase flow rate of 2 ml/min involving a 2 minute gradient from solvent B to solvent A with 5 minute run times. Resins were washed with appropriate solvents (100 mg of resin/ 1 ml of solvent). Technical grade solvents were used for resin washing. General Procedures-Deprotection of Amine Resins Fmoc protected amine resins were washed with DMF and then treated with 25% piperidine in DMF (1 ml/100 mg resin) for 5 minutes then with 25% piperidine in DMF for 30 minutes. The resulting resin was filtered and washed with DMF (2x), MeOH / DCM (3x), and dry DCM (2x) to give free amine resin. Boc protected amine resins were washed with DCM and then treated with 25% TFA in DCM (lml/lOOmg resin) for 3 minutes then with 25% TFA in DCM for 30 minutes. The resulting resin was filtered and washed with DCM (2x), 1 M DIPEA in DCM (2x), MeOH / DCM (3x), and dry DCM (2x) to give free amine resin. General Procedures-Cleavaαe of the Products from the Resins. The final product was liberated from the Wang or Rink resin by exposure to 25% TFA in DCM for 30 min to 1 hour. The resin was filtered and the filtrate was collected in a flask containing toluene. The resin was washed with DCM (2x) and the combined filtrates were concentrated under vacuum. The resulting residue was dissolved in acetonitrile, then a same amount of water was added and the resulting solution was evaporated in vacuo to give the crude product. The final product from the hydroxymethyl polystyrene resin was cleaved by treatment with a 1:1 mixture of 48% aqueous MeNH 2 / THF at room temperature for 24 h. In this case, N-methyl amide was obtained. The corresponding hydroxamic acid could be obtained from derivatized hydroxymethyl polystyrene by 1 - 2 h exposure to a 3 : 2 : 1 mixture of 2 M NH 2 OH in MeOH / THF / Et 3 N at room temperature. Example I The preparation of the amino-ketone template having the formula le was as follows. An amine containing resin (500 mg, 0.35 mmol) (Formula 1) was freshly prepared from the corresponding Fmoc resin as described above, then washed with dry THF (3x) under a nitrogen atmosphere. The resin was slurred in 1.6 mL of dry THF and a 1.0 M solution of N,/V-diisopropylethylamine in THF (1.6 mL, 1.6 mmol) was added in one portion. A 0.5 M solution of an appropriate α-bromoketone in dry dichloroethane (2.1 mL, 1.05 mmol) was added and the resulting slurry was stirred or shaken at room temperature for 3 to 12 hours. For the Wang- and Rink-type resins exact reaction time was judged by removal of an aliquot which was filtrated, washed with DCM (2x), MeOH / DCM (3x), DCM (2x) and treated with 20-50% TFA in DCM for 10 minutes. Immediate evaporation followed by HPLC analysis of the resulting residue allowed accurate determination of correct reaction time for each type of resin. After appropriate reaction time, the reaction mixture was filtrated, then washed with DCM (2x), and MeOH / DCM (3x). The resin was further washed with dry DCM (2x) and kept under a nitrogen atmosphere after drying. Polymer-X-L-NH-CHR 2 -COR 3 [Formula le] Solid phase support templates prepared in accordance with Example I were reacted with plurality of chemical transformations followed by cleavage of the desired compounds using well understood techniques and appropriate cleavage reagents to provide the desired molecules or monomers. Some of these transformations are shown below Example II Imidazole Preparation The polymer-bound amino-ketone of Example I (0.1 mmol) was suspended in a 1.0 M solution of carboxylic acid in DMF (1 mL, 1 mmol). A 1.0 M solution of DIC in DMF (1 mL, 1 mmol) was added. The resulting mixture was shaken at room temperature for 12 h. The resin was then filtered, and washed with DMF (2x), MeOH / DCM (3x), and DCM (2x). To the dried resin were added 500 mg of NH 4 OAc and 1.2 mL of HOAc. The suspension was then heated at 100 °C for 10 - 20 h. After cooling to room temperature, the resin was filtered, washed with HOAc (2x), DMF (2x), DCM (2x), 1.0 M DIEA in DCM (2x), MeOH / DCM (3x), and DCM (2x). The resulting resin was then subjected to cleavage conditions described above under General Procedures-Cleavage of the Products from the Resins. The polymer bound amino ketone 2a undergoes imidazole formation under standard conditions to provide the corresponding polymer bound imidazoles of general Formula 2b. Cleavage of the desired imidazoles of Formula 2b using the appropriate cleavage conditions afforded the imidazoles of general Formula 2c (Scheme 3) Amide bond formation Formula 2a Formula le Imidazole Formation Formula 2c Formula 2b Scheme 3 Example III Preparation of Benzodiazepine Derivatives The solid support reaction compound of Example I (Formula le) is reacted with a series of β-aminocarboxylic acids to provide the α-aminoamides (Formula 3a) linked on the polymer. A polymer-bound amino-ketone (0.1 mmol) was slurried in a 0.5 M solution of anthranilic acid in THF (1.6 mL, 0.8 mmol) and a 1.0 M solution of DIEA in DCE (1.6 mmol). A 0.5 M solution of PyBrOP in DCE (1.6 mL, 0.8 mmol) was then added, and the suspension was shaken at room temperature for 18 h.
