     TECHNICAL FIELD 
       [0002]    This invention relates to a series of substituted pyridopyrimidine which are kinase inhibitors, especially inhibitors of the phosphoinositide 3′ OH kinase family (hereinafter PI3 Kinase; PI3Kα, PI3Kβ, PI3Kγ and/or PI3δ) for treatment of inflammatory diseases, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, allergy, asthma and autoimmune disorders. This invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising the compound of the invention, use of the compound in the preparation of a medicament, and method of treatment for hyperproliferative diseases in mammals, especially humans by administering the compound thereof. 
       BACKGROUND ART 
       [0003]    The phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) are a family of enzymes involved in cellular function such as cell growth, proliferation, differentiation, motility, survival and intracellular trafficking, which in turn are involved in cancer. And the PI3Ks utilize both lipid and protein kinase activity to regulate numerous intracellular signal transduction pathway, which in turn coordinate a range of downstream cellular processes. 
         [0004]    The PI3K family is divided into three classes (I, II, and III). The classifications are based on primary structure, regulation, and in vitro lipid substrate specificity. Class I PI3Ks have received the most attention from the scientific community and are further broken down into two subclasses, 1A and 1B, which are responsible for the production of Phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI(3)P), Phosphatidylinositol (3,4)-bisphosphate (PI(3,4)P2), and Phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate (PI(3,4,5)P3) (Vanhaesebroeck et al., Trends Biochem. Sci., 1997, 22(7), 267-272; Leslie et al., Chem. Rev., 2001, 101(8), 2365-2380) (FIG. 1). 
         [0000]    
       
                 
         
             
             
         
       
     
         [0005]    The class IA isoforms, PI3Kα, PI3Kβ, and PI3Kδ, are primarily activated by protein tyrosine kinase-coupled receptors, whereas the sole class IB member, PI3Kγ is activated by G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs), such as chemokine receptors (Leevers S J et al., Current Opinion in Cell Biology 1999, 11(2) 219-225). Class IA PI3K is composed of a heterodimer between a p110 catalytic subunit and a p85 regulatory subunit (Carpenter C L et al., J. Biol. Chem. 1990, 265(32), 19704-19711). There are five variants of the p85 regulatory subunit, designated p85α, p55α, p50α, p85β, or p55γ. There are also three variants of the p110 catalytic subunit designated p110α, β, or δ catalytic subunit. The first three regulatory subunits are all splice variants of the same gene (Pik3r1), the other two being expressed by other genes (Pik3r2 and Pik3r3, p85β, and p55γ, respectively). The most highly expressed regulatory subunit is p85α; all three catalytic subunits are expressed by separate genes (Pik3ca, Pik3cb, and Pik3cd for p110α, p110β, and p110δ, respectively). The first two p110 isoforms (α and β) are expressed in all cells, but p110δ is expressed primarily in leukocytes, and it has been suggested that it evolved in parallel with the adaptive immune system. The regulatory p101 and unique catalytic p110γ subunits comprise the type IB PI3K and are encoded by a single gene each. Each isoforms have unfolded the close connections between PI3Kα with oncogenesis, PI3Kβ, with thrombosis, PI3Kδ, with immune function and PI3Kγ with inflammation by pathophysiologic studies. Class II PI3Ks include PI3K C2a, C2p and C2y subtypes, which are characterized by containing C2 domains at the C terminus. The substrate for class III PI3Ks is PI only. 
         [0006]    Wortmannin and LY294002 are well known and studied as a first generation PI3K inhibitor. Wortmannin was first isolated from  Penicillium wortmanni  in 1957 (Brian, P. W. et al., Bri. Mycol. Soc., 1957, 40, 365-368), but the structure was recognized in 1974 (Wiesinger, D. et al., Cell Mol. Life. Sci., 1974, 30, 135-136). It was reported for the anti-inflammatory activity (Wiesinger, D. et al, Experintia, 1974, 30, 135-136) and identified as a PI3K inhibitor (Powis, G. et al., Cancer Res., 1994, 54, 2419-2423). LY294002 is the first synthetic PI3K inhibitor with a quercetin modified chemical structure. LY294002 wa first described as a competitive PI3K inhibitor in 1994 (Vlahos, C. J. et al., J. Biol. Chem., 1994, 269, 5241-5248).

     DETAILED DESCRIPTION 
       [0049]    The novel features of the invention are set forth with particularity in the appended claims. A better understanding of the features and advantages of the present invention will be obtained by reference to the following detailed description that sets forth illustrative embodiments, in which the principles of the invention are utilized. 
         [0050]    While preferred embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described herein such embodiments are provided by way of example only. It should be understood that various alternatives to the embodiments of the invention described herein may be employed in practicing the invention. Those ordinary skilled in the art will appreciate that numerous variations, changes, and substitutions are possible without departing from the invention. It is intended that the following claims define the scope of aspects of the invention and that methods and structures within the scope of these claims and their equivalents be covered thereby. 
         [0051]    The section headings used herein are for organizational purposes only and are not to be construed as limiting the subject matter described. All documents, or portions of documents, cited in the application including, without limitation, patents, patent applications, articles, books, manuals, and treatises are hereby expressly incorporated by reference in their entirety for any purpose. 
       CERTAIN CHEMICAL TERMINOLOGY 
       [0052]    Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as is commonly understood by one of skill in the art to which the claimed subject matter belongs. All patents, patent applications, published materials referred to throughout the entire disclosure herein, unless noted otherwise, are incorporated by reference in their entirety. In the event that there is a plurality of definitions for terms herein, those in this section prevail. Where reference is made to a URL or other such identifier or address, it is understood that such identifiers can change and particular information on the internet can come and go, but equivalent information can be found by searching the internet or other appropriate reference source. Reference thereto evidences the availability and public dissemination of such information. 
         [0053]    It is to be understood that the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary and explanatory only and are not restrictive of any subject matter claimed. In this application, the use of the singular includes the plural unless specifically stated otherwise. It must be noted that, as used in the specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a”, “an” and “the” include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. It should also be noted that use of “or” means “and/or” unless stated otherwise. Furthermore, use of the term “including” as well as other forms, such as “include”, “includes”, and “included” is not limiting. Likewise, use of the term “comprising” as well as other forms, such as “comprise”, “comprises”, and “comprised” is not limiting. Definition of standard chemistry terms may be found in reference works, including Carey and Sundberg “ADVANCED ORGANIC CHEMISTRY 4TH ED.” Vols. A (2000) and B (2001), Plenum Press, New York. Unless otherwise indicated, conventional methods of mass spectroscopy, NMR, HPLC, IR and UV/Vis spectroscopy and pharmacology, within the skill of the art are employed. Unless specific definitions are provided, the nomenclature employed in connection with, and the laboratory procedures and techniques of, analytical chemistry, synthetic organic chemistry, and medicinal and pharmaceutical chemistry described herein are those known in the art. Standard techniques can be used for chemical syntheses, chemical analyses, pharmaceutical preparation, formulation, and delivery, and treatment of patients. Reactions and purification techniques can be performed e.g., using kits of manufacturer&#39;s specifications or as commonly accomplished in the art or as described herein. The foregoing techniques and procedures can be generally performed of conventional methods well known in the art and as described in various general and more specific references that are cited and discussed throughout the present specification. Throughout the specification, groups and substituents thereof can be chosen by one skilled in the field to provide stable moieties and compounds. 
         [0054]    Where substituent groups are specified by their conventional chemical formulas, written from left to right, they equally encompass the chemically identical substituents that would result from writing the structure from right to left. As a non-limiting example, CH2O is equivalent to OCH2. 
         [0055]    Unless otherwise noted, the use of general chemical terms, such as though not limited to “alkyl,” “amine,” “aryl,” are equivalent to their optionally substituted forms. For example, “alkyl,” as used herein, includes optionally substituted alkyl. 
         [0056]    The terms “moiety”, “chemical moiety”, “group” and “chemical group”, as used herein refer to a specific segment or functional group of a molecule. Chemical moieties are often recognized chemical entities embedded in or appended to a molecule. 
         [0057]    The term “bond” or “single bond” refers to a chemical bond between two atoms, or two moieties when the atoms joined by the bond are considered to be part of larger substructure. 
         [0058]    The term “catalytic group” refers to a chemical functional group that assists catalysis by acting to lower the activation barrier to reaction. 
         [0059]    The term “optional” or “optionally” means that the subsequently described event or circumstance may or may not occur, and that the description includes instances where said event or circumstance occurs and instances in which it does not. For example, “optionally substituted alkyl” means either “alkyl” or “substituted alkyl” as defined below. Further, an optionally substituted group may be un-substituted (e.g., CH2CH3), fully substituted (e.g., CF2CF3), mono-substituted (e.g., CH2CH2F) or substituted at a level anywhere in-between fully substituted and mono-substituted (e.g., CH2CHF2, CF2CH3, CFHCHF2, etc). It will be understood by those skilled in the art with respect to any group containing one or more substituents that such groups are not intended to introduce any substitution or substitution patterns (e.g., substituted alkyl includes optionally substituted cycloalkyl groups, which in turn are defined as including optionally substituted alkyl groups, potentially ad infinitum) that are sterically impractical and/or synthetically non-feasible. Thus, any substituents described should generally be understood as having a maximum molecular weight of about 1,000 daltons, and more typically, up to about 500 daltons (except in those instances where macromolecular substituents are clearly intended, e.g., polypeptides, polysaccharides, polyethylene glycols, DNA, RNA and the like).

Herein, whenever the number of carbon atoms in a heterocycle is indicated (e.g., C1-C6 heterocycle), at least one non-carbon atom (the heteroatom) must be present in the ring. Designations such as “C1-C6 heterocycle” refer only to the number of carbon atoms in the ring and do not refer to the total number of atoms in the ring. Designations such as “4-6 membered heterocycle” refer to the total number of atoms that are contained in the ring (i.e., a four, five, or six membered ring, in which at least one atom is a carbon atom, at least one atom is a heteroatom and the remaining two to four atoms are either carbon atoms or heteroatoms). For heterocycles having two or more heteroatoms, those two or more heteroatoms can be the same or different from one another. Heterocycles can be optionally substituted. Non-aromatic heterocyclic groups include groups having only three atoms in the ring, while aromatic heterocyclic groups must have at least five atoms in the ring. Bonding (i.e. attachment to a parent molecule or further substitution) to a heterocycle can be via a heteroatom or a carbon atom.

       Biological Activity 
     Materials and Preparation of Reagents 
       [0302]    The PI3 Kinase Activity/Inhibitor Assay Kit was purchased from Millipore. The dimethylsulfoxide was purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. 
       Assay Principle 
       [0303]    The PI3 Kinase Activity/Inhibitor Assay is a competitive assay used for the fast and sensitive quantitation of activity of the four class I PI3 kinases (p110 α, β, γ, δ). The PI3 Kinase Activity/Inhibitor Assay works on the principle that PI3 Kinase phosphorylates PI(3,4)P2 (PIP2), converting it to PI(3,4,5)P3 (PIP3). The PH domain of the protein GRP-1 binds PIP3 with high affinity and specificity. The kit includes this recombinant protein that is used as the capture protein. This protein binds to the glutathione plate and captures either the PIP3 generated as part of the kinase reaction or the biotinylated-PIP3 tracer included in the kit. The captured biotinylated-PIP3 is detected using streptavidin-HRP conjugate and a colorimetric read out (OD 450). The lower the signal, the higher the PI3 Kinase activity. 
       Assay Protocol 
       [0304]    PI3-Kinase included in the Kit was diluted at the ratio of 1:10 with distilled water and stored on ice. The compound was prepared by diluting the stock compound to 100× of the final concentration and then diluted again at the ratio of 1:50 to make 2× of the final concentration with distilled water. 
         [0305]    The prepared PI3-Kinase (5 μL/well) and the compound (5 μL/well) were added to Glutathione-Coated Plate and pre-incubated at room temperature for 10 minutes. After adding 5 μL of 5× Kinase reaction buffer per well, PIP2 was diluted at the ratio of 1:20 with distilled water and 54, were added into each well. Distilled water was added up to 25 μL, and the reaction mixture was incubated at room temperature for an hour. Biotinylated-PIP3 was diluted at the ratio of 1:18 with 1×TBS solution and 25 μL of the mixture were put in each well excluding the buffer control well. GRP1-GST was diluted at the ratio of 1:1000 with 1×TBS solution and 50 μL of it was added to every well. The mixture was incubated at room temperature for an hour. 
         [0306]    After removing the solution contained in the wells, the wells were washed 4 times with 200 μL of 1×TBST. SA-HRP was diluted at the ratio of 1:2000 with 1×TBST, then 50 μL of it was added into every well and incubated at room temperature for an hour. Again after removing the solution, they were washed 5 times by adding 200 μL of 1×TBST to each well. 100 μL of TMB solution was added to every well. The plate was developed in the dark for 5-20 minutes. As blue color appeared, the reaction was stopped by adding 100 μL of stop solution to every well, and the plate was read at 450 nm with ELISA Reader (TECAN). 
       Data Analysis 
       [0307]    For the calculation of relative percentage to biotinylated-PIP3, we take the direct absorbance at 450 nm (A450) and set the positive Biotinylated-PIP3 wells as 100 percentage. All the other signals are divided by the Biotinylated-PIP3 average, and multiplied by 100 to show the relative percentage to the positive signal. 
         [0000]      Relative % to B-PIP3=(A450 of samples include buffer, kinase &amp; inhibitors/A450 of Biotinylated-PIP3 average)×100
 
         [0308]    IC50 values were calculated from the values read at 450 nm by using Graphpad Prism 5 software.
