AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The patent describes a new compound (Formula I) and its use in the treatment of herpes viral infections. The compound has specific structures and can target specific viral proteins to prevent infection. The patent also describes a pharmaceutical composition containing the compound and a method for its use in treating herpes viral infections in humans. The technical effects of the patent include the development of a new compound with improved antiviral activity and the use of a combination of the compound with other antiviral agents for better treatment outcomes.

Problems solved by technology

Most of these viruses are able to persist in the host's neural cells; once infected, individuals are at risk of recurrent clinical manifestations of infection which can be both physically and psychologically distressing.
Ocular infection by HSV can lead to keratitis or cataracts thereby endangering the host's sight.
Infection in the new-born, in immunocompromised patients or penetration of the infection into the central nervous system can prove fatal.
Spread of inflammation may lead to paralysis or convulsions.
VZV is of serious concern in patients receiving immunosuppressive drugs for transplant purposes or for treatment of malignant neoplasia and is a serious complication of AIDS patients due to their impaired immune system.

example 1

4-[8-Chloro-2-(3-methoxyphenyl)imidazo[1,2-α]pyridin-3-yl]-N-phenylpyrimidin-2-amine

[0333]

a) 2-Amino-3-chloropyridine

[0334]2,3-Dichloropyridine (20 g, 0.14 moles) was placed in a steel bomb. To this was added concentrated ammonium hydroxide (300 mL), the bomb sealed and heated at 190° C. for 48 hours. The vessel was cooled to room temperature and opened. Ethyl acetate and water were added. The phases were separated and the ethyl acetate phase washed with water, dried (magnesium sulfate), filtered and concentrated to a solid. This solid was crystallized from a small volume of ethyl acetate to give 12.6 g (70%) of 2-amino-3-chloropyridine as a white solid. 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 7.95 (dd, 1H), 7.46 (dd, 1H), 6.58 (q, 1H), 5.0 (broad s, 2H); MS m / z 129 (M+H).

b) 8-Chloro-2-(3-methoxyphenyl)imidazo[1,2-α]pyridine

[0335]To a solution of 3-chloro-2-pyridinamine (4.8 g, 37.4 mmol) and 2-bromo-1-(3-methoxyphenyl)ethanone (8.56 g, 37.4 mmol) in ethanol (30 mL) was added potassium carbonate (5.15 g, ...

example 2

N-Cyclopentyl-3-[2-(cyclopentylamino)-4-pyrimidinyl]-2-(3-methoxyphenyl)imidazo[1,2-α]pyridin-8-amine

[0341]

[0342]To a solution of 4-[8-chloro-2-(3-methoxyphenyl)imidazo[1,2-α]pyridin-3-yl]-N-phenylpyrimidin-2-amine (162 mg, 0.39 mmol) in cyclopentylamine (5 mL) was added, successively, racemic-2,2′-bis(diphenylphosphino)-1,1′-binaphthyl (15.3 mg, 0.02 mmol), cesium carbonate (376 mg, 1.15 mmol) and palladium (II) acetate (3.5 mg, 0.015 mmol). The resulting mixture was heated in a sealed tube at 150° C. for 24 hours at which time the reaction was judged complete by thin layer chromatography. The solution was cooled to room temperature and ethyl acetate and water were added. The phases were separated and the organic layer was washed with water and brine. The combined organics were dried over magnesium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified by flash chromatography (2:1 hexanes-ethyl acetate) to give N-cyclopentyl-3-[2-(cyclopentylamino)-4-pyrimidinyl]-2-(3-methoxy...

4-[8-Chloro-2-(4-methylphenyl)imidazo[1,2-α]pyridin-3-yl]-N-phenylpyrimidin-2-amine

[0343]

a) 8-Chloro-2-(4-methylphenyl)imidazo[1,2-α]pyridine

[0344]In a similar manner as described in Example 1 from 2-bromo-1-(4-methylphenyl)ethanone (3.5 g, 16.4 mmol) and 3-chloro-2-pyridinamine (2.1 g, 16.4 mmol) was formed 8-chloro-2-(4-methylphenyl)imidazo[1,2-α]pyridine (4 g, 99%) as a white solid. 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ 8.06 (d, 1H), 7.90 (d, 2H), 7.89 (s, 1H), 7.26 (d, 2H), 7.24 (d, 1H), 6.72 (t, 1H), 2.40 (s, 3H); MS m / z 243 (M+1).

Abstract

The present invention provides compounds of formula (I):wherein all variables are as defined herein, pharmaceutical compositions containing the same, processes for preparing the same and their use as pharmaceutical agents.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to novel compounds, pharmaceutical formulations comprising these compounds, and the use of these compounds in therapy. More particularly, the present invention relates to compounds for the prophylaxis and treatment of herpes viral infections.[0002]Of the DNA viruses, those of the herpes group are the sources of the most common viral illnesses in man. The group includes herpes simplex virus types 1 and 2 (HSV-1 and HSV-2), varicella zoster virus (VZV), cytomegalovirus (CMV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), human herpes virus type 6 (HHV-6), human herpes virus type 7 (HHV-7) and human herpes virus type 8 (HHV-8). HSV-1 and HSV-2 are some of the most common infectious agents of man. Most of these viruses are able to persist in the host's neural cells; once infected, individuals are at risk of recurrent clinical manifestations of infection which can be both physically and psychologically distressing.[0003]Herpes simplex viruses (H...
