[0391]

[0392]To a solution of 1-t-butyl 2-methyl(2S,4S)-4-{[(4-bromophenyl)sulfonyl]oxy}pyrrolidine-1,2-dicarboxylate (1.718 g, 3.70 mmol) and 3-bromopyridin-2-ol (0.773 g, 4.44 mmol) in NMP (18.50 mL) under N2, CS2CO3 (1.808 g, 5.55 mmol) was added. The mixture was then heated to 40° C. After 17 hours, the reaction was complete, and H2O and EtOAc were added. The organic layer was then extracted with H2O (3×), NaHCO3 (2×) and brine (2×). The organic layer was dried over MgSO4, and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The crude product was purified on SiO2 (gradient elution, 0-40% EtOAc / hexanes) to yield 1.04 g of the title compound. LRMS ESI+ ((M-Boc)+H)+ 301.2.

After 1 hour, the mixture was partitioned between EtOAc and 1N HCl. The organic layer was separated, dried over MgSO4, and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The crude product was purified on SiO2 (gradient elution, 0-70% EtOAc / hexanes) to yield 110 mg of the title compound. LRMS ESI+ (M+H)+ 674.4.

Abstract

The present invention relates to macrocyclic compounds of formula (I) that are useful as inhibitors of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3 protease, their synthesis, and their use for treating or preventing HCV infections.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to macrocyclic compounds that are useful as inhibitors of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3 protease, the synthesis of such compounds, and the use of such compounds for treating HCV infection and / or reducing the likelihood or severity of symptoms of HCV infection.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is a major health problem that leads to chronic liver disease, such as cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, in a substantial number of infected individuals, estimated to be 2-15% of the world's population. There are an estimated 3.9 million infected people in the United States alone, according to the U.S. Center for Disease Control, roughly five times the number of people infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). According to the World Health Organization, there are more than 170 million infected individuals worldwide, with at least 3 to 4 million people being infected each year. Once inf...
