Embodiment approach

[0304] In some embodiments, a method for preparing a compound of formula (R)-(II-a) or a salt thereof from a compound of formula (I-a) or a salt thereof is provided:

[0305]

[0306] in:

[0307] R 1 is H, aralkyl or -CO 2 R 16 ;

[0308] R 16 is H, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, aralkyl, heteroaryl, heteroaralkyl or -[C(R 20 ) 2 ] p -R 21 , where p is 0-6;

[0309] R 20 is H, alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, cycloalkyl, heterocycloalkyl, aralkyl, heteroaryl, or heteroaralkyl; or any two R's present on the same substituent 20 together form an optionally substituted 4-8 membered ring;

[0310] R 21 for-OR 22 , -N(R 22 )C(=O)R 22 , -N(R 22 )C(=O)OR 22 , -N(R 22 ) SO 2 (R 22 ), -C(=O)R 22 N(R 22 ) 2 , -OC(=O)R 22 N(R 22 )(R 22 ), -SO 2 N(R 22 )(R 22 ), -N(R 22 )(R 22 ), -C(=O)OR 22 , -C(=O)N(OH)(R 22 ), -OS(O) 2 OR 22 ,-S(O) 2 OR 22 ,-OP(=O)(OR 22 )(OR 22 ), -N(R 22 )P(O)(OR 22 )(OR 22 ) or -P(=O)(OR 22 )(...

Abstract

Provided are processes for the synthesis of amino analogues from ketone starting materials.

Description

[0001] This application claims the benefit of US Provisional Patent Application 61 / 231,439, filed August 5, 2009, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. technical background [0002] Cyclopamine, a natural product isolated from Veratrum californicum, has gradually proven to be an effective pharmacological tool to validate the Hedgehog (Hh) pathway in cancer. Cyclopamine acts directly on SMO to inhibit tumor growth in several murine models of pancreatic, medulloblastoma, prostate, small cell lung and gastrointestinal cancers. However, the clinical development of cyclopamine as a cancer therapeutic has been hampered by its low solubility, acid sensitivity, and weak potency relative to other reported small molecule Hh antagonists. [0003] Considerable attention has been paid to developing new cyclopamine analogs with improved potency and improved pharmacokinetic and pharmaceutical properties relative to cyclopamine (see, e.g., U.S. Patents 7,230,004 and 7,407...
