         [0137]    A coupling of Suzuki type of P 3  and P 6  is carried out. Hal represents the halogen atom (chlorine, bromine, iodine). The coupling is carried out in the presence of a palladium (in the (0) or (II) oxidation state) complex, such as, for example, Pd(PPh 3 ) 4 , PdCl 2 (PPh 3 ) 2 , Pd(OAc) 2  or PdCl 2 (dppf) or bis[di(tert-butyl)(4-dimethylaminophenyl)phosphine]dichloropalladium(II). The most frequently used complexes are palladium(0) complexes. The coupling is promoted in the presence of a base, which can, for example, be K 2 CO 3 , NaHCO 3 , Et 3 N, K 3 PO 4 , Ba(OH) 2 , NaOH, KF, CsF, Cs 2 CO 3 , and the like. The coupling can be carried out in a mixture of an ethereal solvent and of an alcohol, for example a dimethoxyethane/ethanol mixture; the mixture can also be a toluene/water mixture (see ex. 19). The temperature can be between 50 and 100° C.

         [0140]    P 2  is obtained from the acid P 1  by monosubstitution in 2 position with an amine of formula R 1 R′ 1 NH. In the case where Z and Z′ respectively represent N and CH, P 1  is a 2,6-dihalonicotinic acid, for example 2,6-dichloronicotinic acid, which is commercially available (cf. ex. 1).

         [0141]    In the case where Z and Z′ both represent N and Hal represents a chlorine atom, P 2  is obtained from 2,4-dihydroxypyrimidine-5-carboxylic acid (cf. ex. 11).

Castro. and Dormoy, J. R.  Tetrahedron Letters,  1975, 16, 1219). The reaction is preferably carried out in the presence of a base (such as triethylamine) at ambient temperature in a solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran (THF) or dimethylformamide (DMF). 
         [0143]    P 6  is prepared by reacting P 4  and P 5  in the presence of an agent which makes it possible to introduce the “C═O” unit (for example phosgene, triphosgene or N,N′-disuccinimidyl carbonate DSC). Advantageously, the reaction is carried out in the presence of triphosgene. It is also preferably carried out in the presence of a base, such as, for example triethylamine, and at a temperature of between −5° C. and ambient temperature in an ethereal solvent, such as THF. 4-(4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1,3,2-dioxaborolan-2-yl)phenylamine has frequently been used for P 5 . Example 8.1 presents an illustrative procedure for this reaction. 
         [0144]    P 4  may be either commercially available or prepared according to methods known to the person skilled in the art.

Likewise, the catalytic hydrogenation of N-(5-cyano-2-pyridinyl)acetamide (CAS No. 100130-61-8) and N-(5-cyano-2-pyridinyl)isobutyramide makes it possible to obtain the aminomethyl equivalents. Catalytic hydrogenation of 6-isopropylaminonicotinonitrile (CAS No. 160017-00-5) and 6-ethylamino-3-pyridinecarbonitrile (CAS No. 1016813-34-5) likewise produces the aminomethyl equivalents. Catalytic hydrogenation of 6-methylamino-3-pyridinecarbonitrile (CAS No. 261715-36-0) makes it possible to access 2-methylamino-5-aminomethylpyridine.

         [0145]    In Scheme 2, the Suzuki coupling (as described above) between P 2  (for example, Hal=Cl when Z and Z′ respectively represent N and CH) and P 6  is first carried out in order to result in P 8  and then the R 4  group is introduced by reacting the acid functional group of P 8  with an excess of amine R 4 NH 2  (amidation). An acid activator, such as, for example, BOP, is advantageously used to activate the reaction. In the case where R 4  represents a pyridine group (cf. compounds No. 67 and 68), the activator can, for example, be EDCl (1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride).

The reaction is carried out in an ethereal solvent, such as THF, preferably at an ambient temperature. Preferably, DSC is used to introduce the “C═O” unit.

For example, 3-(3-pyridinyl)propanoic acid is sold by Sigma-Aldrich. P 12  can also be prepared by hydrogenation of P 10  (Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 1993, 36(22), 3293-9). 
         [0155]    Use may also be made of P 12  in place of P 10  in the preceding Scheme 5.

         [0156]    P 11  and P′ 3  (in place of P 3 ) are reacted in the preceding Scheme 4 in order to obtain compounds of formula (I) for which L=—CH═CH— and R 2 =—OR 4 . Likewise, starting from P′ 3  and P 12 , the compounds of formula (I) for which L=—CH 2 CH 2 — and R 2 =—OR 4  are obtained. 
         [0157]    The compounds for which A represents a (C 1 -C 6 )alkoxy group are obtained according to Schemes equivalent to the preceding Schemes starting from an equivalent compound P 13 .

         [0158]    P 13  can be obtained according to Scheme 6. Amidation with R 4 NH 2  can be carried out in the presence of an acid activator, such as, for example, N,N′-carbonyldiimidazol (CDI) (see in this connection: R. Paul and G. W. Anderson (1960), “N,N′-carbonyldiimidazole, a New Peptide Forming Reagent”,  Journal of the American Chemical Society,  82: 4596-4600). The reaction can be carried out in a solvent such as THF. The conditions of Ex. 10.1 may act as a model. The following stage is carried out in the presence of the alkoxide R″ 1 O − . The reaction can be carried out in THF at a temperature of the order of 70° C. The conditions of Ex. 10.2 may act as a model. 
       Protection of the Primary or Secondary Amine Functional Group 
       [0159]    It may be necessary to use, in at least one of the stages, a protective group (PG) in order to protect one or more chemical functional group, in particular a primary or secondary amine functional group. For example, when R c  and R d  both represent a hydrogen atom, the amidation of Scheme 2 is carried out using, for R 4 NH 2 , the compound H 2 N—(C 1 -C 6 )alkyl-NH-PG, where PG advantageously represents BOC (tert-butoxycarbonyl). Thus, for compound No. 32, the compound H 2 N—(CH 2 ) 6 —NHBOC was used for R 4 NH 2 . Likewise, when the heterocycloalkyl group formed by R c  and R d  represents the piperazinyl group 
         [0000]    
       
                 
         
             
             
         
       
     
         [0000]    the —NH— functional group thereof can advantageously be protected. In this case, the following compound 
         [0000]    
       
                 
         
             
             
         
       
     
         [0000]    where PG advantageously represents BOC, is used. Likewise, when R 3  represents —NH 2  or —NH-alkyl, the —NH— functional group is preferably protected, advantageously using BOC (see, for example, compounds No. 81, 87, 93, 94 and 98), which makes it possible to increase the yield of desired product. 
         [0160]    The functional group(s) is/are subsequently obtained by a stage of deprotection (final or intermediate), the conditions of which depend on the nature of the protected functional group(s) and protective group used. In the case of the protection of the —NH 2  or —NH-functional groups by BOC, the deprotection stage is carried out in an acid medium using, for example, HCl or triflic acid. If appropriate, the associated salt (hydrochloride or triflate) is thus obtained; see compounds No. 5, 32, 94, 104 or 119. Another method of obtaining the salts consists in bringing the compound into contact in its base form with the acid. 
         [0161]    In the preceding Schemes, the starting compounds and the reactants, when their method of preparation is not described, are commercially available or described in the literature, or else can be prepared according to methods which are described therein or which are known to a person skilled in the art. A person skilled in the art can also draw as a model on the operating conditions given in the examples which are described below.

     1.1: 6-Chloro-2-(ethylamino)nicotinic acid 
       [0174]    26.1 g (0.136M) of 2,6-dichloronicotinic acid are mixed in a round-bottomed flask with 180 ml of a 70% aqueous solution of ethylamine in water. The solution is stirred at ambient temperature for 5 days and then the solvent is evaporated under reduced pressure. The residue is taken up in 100 ml of water. The reaction medium is cooled with an ice bath and acidified to pH 3 with the 5N HCl solution. Finally, the precipitate is filtered off and washed with cold water in order to be finally dried under vacuum over P 2 O 5  at 60° C. 24.93 g (yield yd=91.4%) of white solid are obtained. M.p.

         [0356]    The compounds described in Table I have formed the subject of pharmacological trials which make it possible to determine the anticancer activity. They were tested in vitro on the following tumour lines: HCT116 (ATCC-CCL247) and PC3 (ATCC-CRL1435). The cell proliferation and viability were determined in a test using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-5-(3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2-(4-sulphophenyl)-2H-tetrazolium (MTS) according to Fujishita T. et al., Oncology, 2003, 64(4), 399-406. In this test, the mitochondrial capacity of the living cells to convert MTS to a coloured compound after incubating the test compound for 72 hours is measured. The concentration of compound which results in 50% loss of cell proliferation and viability is recorded as IC 50 .

         [0357]    For the compounds in Table I, an IC 50 &lt;10 000 nM (10 μM) is found with regard to the HCT116 and PC3 lines. It is observed that some of the compounds exhibit an IC 50  value of &lt;500 nM, some being very active with an IC 50  of 0.1 nM (cf. values in Table II). Thus, the compounds result in a loss of proliferation and viability of the tumour cells and therefore have an anticancer activity.
