Description:
[0001]    The present invention relates to novel 7H-pyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidin-8-one derivatives, to a process for their manufacture, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their manufacture as well as the use of these compounds as pharmaceutically active agents. 
       BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
       [0002]    Protein kinases are enzymes that catalyze the transfer of a phosphate group from ATP to an amino acid residue, such as tyrosine, serine, threonine, or histidine on a protein. Regulation of these protein kinases is essential for the control of a wide variety of cellular events including proliferation and migration. 
         [0003]    Inappropriate activation of tyrosine kinases is known to be involved in a variety of disease states including inflammatory, immunological, CNS disorders, or oncological disorders, or bone diseases. See for example Susva, M., et al., Trends Pharmacol. Sci. 21 (2000) 489-495; Biscardi, J. S., et al., Adv. Cancer Res. 76 (2000) 61-119. 
         [0004]    The tyrosine kinases are a class of protein kinases. The Src family which consists of at least eight members (Src, Fyn, Lyn, Yes, Lck, Fgr, Hck and Blk) that participate in a variety of signaling pathways represents the major family of cytoplasmic protein tyrosine kinases (Schwartzberg, P. L., Oncogene 17 (1998) 1463-1468). The prototypical member of this tyrosine kinase family is Src, which is involved in proliferation and migration responses in many cell types (Sawyer, T., et al., Expert Opin. Investig. Drugs 10 (2001) 1327-1344). Src activity has been shown to be elevated in different cancers, e.g. breast, colon (&gt;90%), pancreatic (&gt;90%) and liver (&gt;90%) tumors. Highly increased Src activity is also associated with metastasis (&gt;90%) and poor prognosis. Antisense Src message impedes growth of colon tumor cells in nude mice (Staley, C. A., Cell Growth Differ. 8 (1997) 269-274), suggesting that Src inhibitors could slow tumor growth. Furthermore, in addition to its role in cell proliferation, Src also acts in stress response pathways, including the hypoxia response. Nude mice studies with colon tumor cells expressing antisense Src message have reduced vascularization (Ellis, L. M., et al., J. Biol. Chem. 273 (1998) 1052-1057), which suggests that Src inhibitors could be anti-angiogenic as well as anti-proliferative. 
         [0005]    Src disrupts E-cadherin associated cell-cell interactions (Avizienyte, E., et al., Nature Cell Bio. 4 (2002) 632-638). A low molecular weight Src inhibitor prevents this disruption thereby reducing cancer cell metastasis (Nam, J. S., et al., Clin. Cancer Res. 8 (2002) 2430-2436). 
         [0006]    Src inhibitors may prevent the secondary injury that results from a VEGF-mediated increase in vascular permeability such as that seen following stroke (Eliceiri, B. P., et al., Mol. Cell. 4 (1999) 915-924; Paul, R., et al., Nat. Med. 7 (2001) 222-227). 
         [0007]    Blockade of Src prevents dissociation of the complex involving Flk, VE-cadherin, and β-catenin with the same kinetics with which it prevents VEGF-mediated VP/edema and account for the Src requirement in VEGF-mediated permeability and provide a basis for Src inhibition as a therapeutic option for patients with acute myocardial infarction (Weis, S., et al., J. Clin. Invest. 113 (2004) 885-894). 
         [0008]    Src also plays a role in osteoporosis. Mice genetically engineered to be deficient in Src production were found to exhibit osteopetrosis, the failure to resorb bone (Soriano, P., et al., Cell 64 (1991) 693-702; Boyce, B. F., et al., J. Clin., Invest. 90 (1992) 1622-1627). This defect was characterized by a lack of osteoclast activity. Since osteoclasts normally express high levels of Src, inhibition of Src kinase activity may be useful in the treatment of osteoporosis (Missbach, M., et al., Bone 24 (1999) 437-449). 
         [0009]    Low molecular weight inhibitors for protein kinases are widely known in the state of the art. For the inhibition of src and other kinases such inhibitors are based on i.e. 8H-pyrido[2,3-d]pyrimidin-7-one derivatives (see e.g. WO 96/34867, WO 96/15128, U.S. Pat. No. 5,733,914, WO 02/018379, WO 02/018380, WO 2005/034869, Klutchko, S. R, et al., J. Med. Chem. 41 (1998) 3276-3292 or Blankley, C. J., J. Med. Chem. 41 (1998) 1752-1763) or 3,4-dihydro-1H-pyrimido[4,5-d]pyrimidin-2-one derivatives (see e.g. WO 99/61444, WO 00/024744, WO 01/029041, WO 01/029042, WO 2004/011465, WO 2004/041821, WO 2004/041823, WO 2004/075852, WO 2004/089955 or WO 2005/011597). Some pyrido-pyrimidinone derivatives are known from cross-coupling reaction studies (Sakamoto, T., et al., Chemical &amp; Pharmaceutical Bulletin 30 (1982) 2410-2416).

         [0184]    The derivatives of the general formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, may be prepared by any process known to be applicable for the preparation of chemically-related compounds by the one skilled in the art. Such processes, when used to prepare the derivatives of formula I, or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof, are provided as a further feature of the invention and are illustrated by the following representative examples of scheme 1, in which, unless otherwise stated R 1 , R 2 , R 3  and R 4  have the significance given herein before for formula I. Necessary starting materials may be obtained by standard procedures of organic chemistry. The preparation of such starting materials is described within the accompanying examples. Alternatively necessary starting materials are obtainable by analogous procedures to those illustrated which are within the ordinary skill of an organic chemist. 
         [0000]    
       
                 
         
             
             
         
       
     
         [0185]    In scheme 1, R 1 , R 2 , R 3  and R 4  have the significance as given above for formula I, X is bromine or iodine and n is 1 or 2. 
       Step 1 
       [0186]    5-bromo-2-methylsulfanyl-pyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester is a known compound. The free carboxylic acid and can be prepared from mucobromic acid and S-methylisothiourea under basic conditions. It can further be converted to the methyl ester by standard procedures, e.g by condensation with methanol in the presence of anhydrous hydrochloric acid. 
       Step 2 
       [0187]    Substituted phenylacetylenes of formula III are well known in the art and can be prepared from corresponding bromo- or iodoarenes of formula II and a protected ethyne by the so called Sonogashira reaction. This coupling reaction is performed with a copper catalyst like CuI or CuCl, and a palladium catalyst like PdCl 2 (PPh 3 ) 2  or PdCl 2 (PhCN) 2 /PtBu 3 , and a base like di-isopropyl amine, diethyl amine or triethyl amine, which can also serve as the solvent, or in an inert solvent like tetrahydrofuran (THF), dioxane, N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) or acetonitrile. The reaction proceeds at room temperature or higher, up to 160° C. A suitable protecting group on the ethyne is the trimethylsily group which can subsequently be cleaved off by treatment with a fluoride containing reagent like tetrabutyl ammonium fluoride in an inert aprotic solvent like tetrahydrofuran, or by a strong base like potassium hydroxide in alcohol solvents like methanol. This deprotection reaction is preferably done at moderate to low temperatures in the range from −30° C. to 50° C. 
       Step 3 
       [0188]    The coupling of the phenylacetylenes of formula III to the 5-bromo-2-methylsulfanyl-pyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester can be achieved under conditions of the so called Sonogashiro reaction as described for step 2. 
         [0189]    Alternatively, the ethynyl-arene may first be converted into a more reactive alkynyl-Zn or -Sn derivative by procedures known in the art: the ethynyl-arene is deprotonated with a strong base like butyl lithium to form an alkynyl-Li intermediate which is reacted with ZnCl 2  or Bu 3 SnCl to yield the desired zinc or tin intermediate. These may subsequently be coupled to the 5-bromo-2-methylsulfanyl-pyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester under standard cross coupling conditions, for instance by catalysis by a palladium phosphine complex like Pd(PPh 3 ) 4  or PdCl 2 (PPh 3 ) 2  or Pd 2 (dba) 3 /PtBu 3  in solvents like dimethyl acetamide, THF, or toluene. 
       Step 4 
       [0190]    Cyclisation of the ethynylpyrimidine derivatives of formula IV to pyranone derivatives of formula V can be achieved under acidic conditions, optionally in the presence of water. This may be carried out a solvent like tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, N-methylpyrrolidinone or sulfolane. Suitable acids for this reaction can be trifluoroacetic acid, hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, toluene sulfonic acid, methane sulfonic acid, or polyphosphoric acid. The reaction can optionally be catalysed by mercury salts like HgO. Alternatively, a Lewis acid like ZnBr 2  is employed in an inert solvent like tetrahydrofuran. 
       Step 5 
       [0191]    The pyranone derivatives of formula V are reacted with amines R 3 NH 2  of formula Va to yield ring-opened pyrimidine carboxamides of formula VI. This can be achieved by heating the reaction partners neat in an excess of the amine, or in an inert solvent like dichloromethane, tetrahydrofuran (THF), ethanol, xylene, or N-methylpyrrolidinone (NMP) to a temperature in the range of 40° C. to 170° C. Optionally, an acid may be added to facilitate the reaction. 
       Step 6 
       [0192]    The pyrimidine carboxamides of formula VI are again cyclized to pyrimidopyridones of formula VII by heating in the presence of an acid. In principle, the same conditions apply as described for step 4. 
       Step 6a 
       [0193]    Alternatively, in certain cases the direct conversion of pyrimidine carboxylates of formula IV to the pyrimidopyridones of formula VII is possible by heating with the appropriate amine R 3 NH 2  of formula Va neat or in an inert solvent like dichloromethane, tetrahydrofuran (THF), xylene, ethanol or N-methylpyrrolidinone (NMP). Optionally, an acid like trifluoroacetic acid or hydrochloric acid, or an transition metal catalyst like a palladium phosphin complex may be added to facilitate the reaction. 
       Step 7 
       [0194]    The methylthio group of pyrimidopyridones VII is converted into a leaving group by oxidation to a methylsulfinyl or methylsulfonyl group. Suitable oxidants for this purpose are meta-chloroperbenzoic acid or 3-Phenyl-2-(toluene-4-sulfonyl)-oxaziridine in solvents like dichloromethane or THF, or Oxone or sodium periodate in methanol or THF/water mixtures. The oxidation reaction is performed at temperatures in the range of −20° C. to 60° C., and the resulting methylsulfinyl- or methylsulfonyl-pyrimidopyridones of formula VIII (n=1 or 2) may optionally be used directly without isolation in step 8. 
       Step 8 
       [0195]    The methylsulfinyl or methylsulfonyl group of compounds of formula VIII is displaced by an amine R 4 NH 2  of formula VIIIa to yield the final products of formula I by heating the reactants neat, or diluted with an inert solvent like N-methylpyrrolidionone, dimethylacetamide, sulfolane, dichloromethane, tetrahydrofuran (THF) or acetonitrile. An acid like trifluoroacetic acid or anhydrous hydrochloric acid may be added to facilitate the reaction. The reaction is carried out at elevated temperatures in the range from 60° C. to 180° C. Alternatively, the amines R 4 NH 2  may be deprotonated by a strong base like lithium hexamethyldisilazide or lithium diisopropylamide and reacted with compounds of formula VIII at temperatures between −50° C. and room temperature in an inert solvent like diethyl ether or THF. 
         [0196]    The compounds according to the present invention may exist in the form of their pharmaceutically acceptable salts. The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to conventional acid-addition salts that retain the biological effectiveness and properties of the compounds of formula I and are formed from suitable non-toxic organic or inorganic bases or from organic or inorganic acids. Examples of base-addition salts include those derived from sodium, potassium, ammonium, quaternary ammonium hydroxides (such as for example, tetramethylammonium hydroxide), especially from sodium. Examples of 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, and the like. The chemical modification of a pharmaceutical compound (i.e. a 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. Stahl, P. H., and Wermuth, G., (editors), Handbook of Pharmaceutical Salts, Verlag Helvetica Chimica Acta (VHCA), Zürich, (2002) or Bastin, R. J., et al., Organic Proc. Res. Dev. 4 (2000) 427-435. 
         [0197]    The compounds of formula I can contain one or several chiral centers and can then be present in a racemic or in an optically active form. The racemates can be separated according to known methods into the enantiomers. For instance, diastereomeric salts which can be separated by crystallization are formed from the racemic mixtures by reaction with an optically active acid such as e.g. D- or L-camphorsulfonic acid. Alternatively separation of the enantiomers can also be achieved by using chromatography on chiral HPLC-phases which are commercially available.

Proc. Fed. Amer. Soc. Exp. Biol. 21 (1962) 412) on a Zinsser SMP350 peptide synthesizer. Shortly, the peptide was assembled on 160 mg (22.8 μmol scale) of a Rink-Linker modified polystyrene solid phase by repeatedly conjugating an twenty fold excess of amino acids each protected by temporary piperidine labile Fmoc- and permanent acid labile tert-Bu-, BOC- and O-tert-Bu-groups depending on the side chain function. The substrate sequence AEEEIYGEFEAKKKK was N-terminal additionally mounted with the spacer amino acids Aminocaprylic acid and Glycin. After cleavage of the N-terminal temporary protecting group the still attached and protected peptide was labeled with a 1.5 fold amount of LightCycler-Red 640-N-hydroxy succinimide ester (purchased from Roche Diagnostics GmbH) and triethylamine. After 3 hrs. the resin was washed with Dimethylformamide and Isopropanol until the eluates of the blue resin got colourless. The fully protected and labeled peptide was removed from the solid phase and released from the permanent protecting groups by treatment with a mixture of 80% trifluoroacetic acid, 10% Ethanedithiol, 5% Thioanisol and 5% Water. The substrate was finally isolated by a preparative reverse phase HPLC purification. The purification yielded 12.2 mg RP-HPLC single peak pure blue material (lyophilisate). The identity was proven by MALDI mass spectroscopy [2720.0].

       Antiproliferative Activity 
       [0235]    The activity of the present compounds as antiproliferative agents can be demonstrated by the following biological assay: 
       CellTiter-Glo™ Assay in HCT 116 Cells 
       [0236]    The CellTiter-Glo™ Luminescent Cell Viability Assay (Promega) is a homogeneous method of determining the number of viable cells in culture based on quantitation of the ATP present, which signals the presence of metabolically active cells. 
         [0237]    HCT 116 cells (human colon carcinoma, ATCC-No. CCl-247) is cultivated in RPMI 1640 medium with GlutaMAX™ (Invitrogen, Cat-No. 61870-010), 5% Fetal Calf Serum (FCS, Sigma Cat-No. F4135 (FBS)); 100 Units/ml penicillin/100 μg/ml streptomycin (=Pen/Strep from Invitrogen Cat. No. 15140). For the assay the cells are seeded in 384 well plates, 1000 cells per well, in the same medium. The next day the test compounds are added in various concentrations ranging from 30 μM to 0.0015 μM (10 concentrations, 1:3 diluted). After 5 days the CellTiter-Glo™ assay is done according to the instructions of the manufacturer (CellTiter-Glo™ Luminescent Cell Viability Assay, from Promega). In brief: the cell-plate is equilibrated to room temperature for approximately 30 minutes and than the CellTiter-Glo™ reagent is added. The contents are carefully mixed for 15 minutes to induce cell lysis. After 45 minutes the luminescent signal is measured in Victor 2, (scanning multiwell spectrophotometer, Wallac). 
       Details: 
       [0238]    1st. day:
       Medium: RPMI 1640 with GlutaMAX™ I (Invitrogen, Cat-Nr. 61870), 5% FCS (Sigma Cat.-No. F4135), Pen/Strep (Invitrogen, Cat No. 15140).   HCT116 (ATCC-No. CCl-247): 1000 cells in 60 μl per well of 384 well plate (Greiner 781098, μClear-plate white)   After seeding incubate plates 24 h at 37° C., 5% CO 2  
 
2nd. Day: Induction (Treatment with Compounds, 10 Concentrations):
       
 
         [0242]    In order to achieve a final concentration of 30 μM as highest concentration 3.5 μl of 10 mM compound stock solution is added directly to 163 μl media. Then step e) of the dilution procedure described below, is followed. 
         [0243]    In order to achieve the second highest to the lowest concentrations, a serial dilution with dilution steps of 1:3 is followed according to the procedure (a-e) as described here below:
   a) for the second highest concentration add 10 μl of 10 mM stock solution of compound to 20 μl dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO)   b) dilute 8×1:3 (always 10 μl to 20 μl DMSO) in this DMSO dilution row (results in 9 wells with concentrations from 3333.3 μM to 0.51 μM)   c) dilute each concentration 1:47.6 (3.5 μl compound dilution to 163 μl media)   d) add 10 μl of every concentration to 60 μl media in the cell plate resulting in final concentration of DMSO: 0.3% in every well and resulting in 10 final concentration of compounds ranging from 30 μM to 0.0015 μM.
       Each compound is tested in triplicate.   Incubate 120 h (5 days) at 37° C., 5% CO 2      
       
 
       Analysis: 
       [0250]    Add 30 μl CellTiter-Glo™ Reagent (prepared from CellTiter-Glo™ Buffer and CellTiter-Glo™ Substrate (lyophilized) purchased from Promega) per well, 
         [0251]    shake 15 minutes at room temperature 
         [0252]    incubate further 45 minutes at room temperature without shaking

         [0255]    The compounds according to this invention and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be used as medicaments, e.g. in the form of pharmaceutical compositions. The pharmaceutical compositions can be administered orally, e.g. in the form of tablets, coated tablets, dragees, hard and soft gelatine capsules, solutions, emulsions or suspensions. The administration can, however, also be effected rectally, e.g. in the form of suppositories, or parenterally, e.g. in the form of injection solutions. 
         [0256]    The above-mentioned pharmaceutical compositions can be obtained by processing the compounds according to this invention with pharmaceutically inert, inorganic or organic carriers. Lactose, corn starch or derivatives thereof, talc, stearic acids or it&#39;s salts and the like can be used, for example, as such carriers for tablets, coated tablets, dragees and hard gelatine capsules. Suitable carriers for soft gelatine capsules are, for example, vegetable oils, waxes, fats, semi-solid and liquid polyols and the like. Depending on the nature of the active substance no carriers are, however, usually required in the case of soft gelatine capsules. Suitable carriers for the production of solutions and syrups are, for example, water, polyols, glycerol, vegetable oil and the like. Suitable carriers for suppositories are, for example, natural or hardened oils, waxes, fats, semi-liquid or liquid polyols and the like. 
         [0257]    The pharmaceutical compositions can, moreover, contain preservatives, solubilizers, stabilizers, wetting agents, emulsifiers, sweeteners, colorants, flavorants, salts for varying the osmotic pressure, buffers, masking agents or antioxidants. They can also contain still other therapeutically valuable substances. 
         [0258]    A pharmaceutical compositions comprise e.g. the following:

     Experimental Methods 
       [0269]      1 H-NMR spectra were recorded using a Bruker 250 Avance spectrometer. Chemical shifts were reported in parts per million (ppm) on the δ scale relative to trimethylsilane internal standard. Identification and purity were determined by Analytical LC-MS performed on a HP1100 system using a Phenomenex Gemini C18 column (5 μm, 30 mm×2.0 mm), mobile phase 5-95% acetonitrile/water (containing 0.05% ammonia) over 4.5 min, hold for 1.5 min, flow rate, 1 ml/min, diode array detection at 210-220 nm. The mass spectrometer was a Micromass Platform LC operating in switchable positive and negative ion electrospray modes. Analytical GC was carried out on an Agilent 6890N GC system using a Z5-5 column (15 m, 0.32 mm×0.25 mm), 50° C. hold for 2.5 min, 50° C.-275° C. over 10 min, 1 ml/min, injector temperature 300° C., flame ionisation detection at 300° C. 
         [0270]    Microwave reactions were carried out in heavy-walled glass Smith process vials with aluminium crimp caps fitted with a silicone septum. Microwave heating was performed in a Personal Chemistry Creator EXP system to the specified temperature and for the specified duration. All reactions were carried out under an atmosphere of nitrogen.

         [0272]    Triethylamine (161.5 ml, 1.16 mol) was added dropwise over 25 min to a stirred suspension of 5-methylisothiourea hydroiodide (85.0 g, 0.39 mol) and mucobromic acid (100.0 g, 0.39 mol) in water (500 ml). During this time an exotherm was observed (20° C. to 50° C.). The mixture was stirred for 18 h at ambient temperature, then it was acidified at 0-5° C. to pH 2 using 10% hydrochloric acid. The resulting precipitate was collected by filtration and dried in vacuo to give 5-bromo-2-methylsulfanyl-pyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid (71.4 g) as a brown solid, which was used without further purification. 
         [0273]    Acetyl chloride (6.26 ml, 0.088 mol) was added dropwise at 0-5° C. to methanol (100 ml). The mixture was stirred at 0-5° C. for 5 min. 5-Bromo-2-methylsulfanylpyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid (20 g, 0.08 mol) was added in portions at 0-5° C. then the mixture was heated under reflux for 1 h, during which time the slurry dissolved, then it was cooled to ambient temperature and poured into saturated aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution (100 ml). The product was extracted into dichloromethane (3×100 ml), the extracts were washed with water (100 ml), dried (MgSO 4 ) and evaporated in vacuo. The residual solid was crystallised from hexane to give 5-bromo-2-methylsulfanylpyrimidine-4-carboxylic acid methyl ester (12.27 g) as an off white crystalline solid, m.pt. 67-70° C.; 250 MHz  1 H-NMR (CDCl 3 ) δ (ppm): 2.6 (s, 3H) (—SCH 3 ), 4.05 (s, 3H) (—OCH 3 ), 8.7 (s, 1H) (ArH); m/z (M+H) + . 249; HPLC purity 96%; HPLC retention time 1.58 min.

         [0294]    The appropriate lactam (0.7 mmol) (prepared in (E)) was dissolved in chloroform (4 ml). 3-Chloroperoxybenzoic acid (mCPBA) (1.0 mmol) was added and the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 1 h. A second portion of 3-chloroperoxybenzoic acid was added and the mixture stirred for a further 18 h. The mixture was poured into saturated aqueous sodium sulfite solution (25 ml) and product was extracted into dichloromethane (2×15 ml). The combined extracts were washed with 2M aqueous sodium carbonate solution (25 ml), then dried (MgSO 4 ) and evaporated in vacuo. The residual oil was purified by flash column chromatography over silica using dichloromethane as eluant. Appropriate fractions were combined and the solvent removed in vacuo to give the desired sulfone.

         [0306]    A mixture of the appropriate sulfone (0.4 mmol) from example F or I, the designated amine R 4 NH 2  (0.8 mmol) and N-methylpyrrolidinone (0.1 ml) was stirred in a heavy-walled Smith process vial. Trifluoroacetic acid (0.12 mmol) was added and the mixture was irradiated to 120° C. for 2 h. The resulting oil was diluted in methanol and applied directly to preparative HPLC/MS purification. Product containing fractions were pooled and evaporated and optionally further purified by chromatography on silica in ethyl acetate/hexane mixtures to give the appropriate 7H-pyrido[3,4-d]pyrimidin-8-one derivatives.
