AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The compounds effectively inhibit cathepsin S activity, providing therapeutic benefits in treating autoimmune disorders, inflammatory diseases, and conditions involving excessive elastolysis, thereby ameliorating disease pathology and symptomatology.

Problems solved by technology

The aberrant activity of cysteine proteases, e.g., as a result of increase expression or enhanced activation, however, may have pathological consequences.

Morpholine-4-carboxylic acid [1-(1-benzoyl-4-oxo-pyrrolidin-3-ylcarbamoyl)-2-phenylmethanesulfonyl-ethyl]-amide

Compound 1

[0120]

[0121] 2-[(Morpholine-4-carbonyl)-amino]-3-phenylmethanesulfonyl-propionic acid (1 g, 2.8 mmol), 3-amino-4-hydroxy-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (700 mg, 3.46 mmol) prepared as in Reference 1, EDC (1.5 g, 7.8 mmol), and HOBt (1.5 g, 9.6 mmol) were combined. Dichloromethane (10 mL) was added and then 4-methylmorpholine (1.5 mL). The mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 2 hours. After dilution with ethyl acetate (200 mL) the solution was washed with saturated aqueous NaHCO3 (100 mL) and brine (100 mL), dried with MgSO4 and evaporated under vacuum. 3-Hydroxy-4-{2-[(morpholine-4-carbonyl)-amino]-3-phenylmethanesulfonyl-propionylamino}-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester (1.05 g, 1.94 mmol) was obtained as yellowish foam and was dissolved in dichloromethane (6 mL). Trifluoroacetic acid (6 mL) was added and the mixture was st...

Morpholine-4-carboxylic acid [1-(1-benzenesulfonyl-4-oxo-pyrrolidin-3-ylcarbamoyl) 2-phenylmethanesulfonyl-ethyl]-amide

Compound 2

[0124]

[0125] Morpholine-4-carboxylic acid [1-(1-benzenesulfonyl-4-oxo-pyrrolidin-3-ylcarbamoyl) 2-phenylmethanesulfonyl-ethyl]-amide was prepared following the procedure detailed in Example 1, substituting benzenesulfonyl chloride for benzoyl chloride; 1H NMR: (DMSO) [8.35 (d, J=7.4 Hz), 8.28 (d, J=7.6 Hz), 1H], 7.87-7.62 (m, 5H), 7.41-7.32 (m, 5H), 7.06-6.98 (m, 1H), 4.72-4.60 (m, 1H), 4.45 (s, 2H), 4.42-4.23 (m, 1H), 3.92-3.79 (m, 2H), 3.55-3.20 (m, 11H), 3.06-2.97 (m, 1H). MS: (M+H)+ 579.

4-2-[(Morpholine-4-carbonyl)-amino]-3-phenylmethanesulfonyl-propionylamino}-3-oxo-azepane-1-carboxylic acid benzyl ester

Compound 3

[0126]

[0127] Crude 4-amino-3-hydroxy-azepane-1-carboxylic acid benzyl ester (150 mg, 0.57 mmol) prepared as in Reference 2, 2-[(morpholine-4-carbonyl)-amino]-3-phenylmethanesulfonyl-propionic acid (400 mg, 1.12 mmol), EDC (400 mg, 2.1 mmol), and HOBt (400 mg, 2.5 mmol) were combined. Dichloromethane (10 mL) was added followed by 4-methylmorpholine (0.5 mL). The mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 2 hours. After dilution with ethyl acetate (100 mL) the solution was washed with 1N HCl, saturated aqueous NaHCO3 and brine, dried with MgSO4 and evaporated under vacuum. The residue was purified by flash chromatography (ethyl acetate / methanol 9:1) to yield 3-hydroxy-4-{2-[(morpholine-4-carbonyl)-amino]-3-phenylmethanesulfonyl-propionyl-amino}-azepane-1-carboxylic acid benzyl ester (320 mg).

Abstract

The present invention relates to novel cathepsin S inhibitors, the pharmaceutically acceptable salts and N-oxides thereof, their uses as therapeutic agents and the methods of their making.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional of Non-Provisional application Ser. No. 10 / 787,367, filed on Feb. 2, 2004, which is a continuation of International Application No. PCT / US02 / 29323, filed Sep. 16, 2002, which claims the benefit of Provisional Application No. 60 / 322,318, filed on Sep. 14, 2001.[0002] This Application relates to compounds and compositions for treating diseases associated with cysteine protease activity, particularly diseases associated with activity of cathepsin S. DESCRIPTION OF THE FIELD [0003] Cysteine proteases represent a class of peptidases characterized by the presence of a cysteine residue in the catalytic site of the enzyme. Cysteine proteases are associated with the normal degradation and processing of proteins. The aberrant activity of cysteine proteases, e.g., as a result of increase expression or enhanced activation, however, may have pathological consequences. In this regard, certain cysteine proteases are associated with a number of disease states...
