Benefits of technology

The present invention is about creating new compounds that have good potency, pharmacokinetic properties, oral bioavailability, formulatability, stability, safety, clearance, and / or metabolism. These compounds have a unique structure with disubstitution at the C3 position. This disubstitution helps to eliminate potential for oxidation, metabolism, and secondary elimination pathways. These compounds also have a hydrogen at the C10 position, which improves their physical properties, such as solubility. The invention also includes prodrugs, which are inactive forms of the compounds that are converted to the active form in the body. These prodrugs can offer advantages of solubility, tissue compatibility, or delayed release in the mammalian organism.

Problems solved by technology

However, progesterone is not consistently effective in the treatment of the aforementioned syndromes.

Synthesis of Compounds 8a / b, 9a / b, and 10a / b

[0358]

[0359]Synthesis of Compound 2.

[0360]Compound 1 (500 mg, 1.84 mmol) and 10% Pd / C (20 mg) in tetrahydrofuran (5 mL) and concentrated hydrobromic acid (0.02 mL) was hydrogenated with a hydrogen balloon. After stirring at room temperature for 24 h, the mixture was filtered through a pad of celite and the filtrate was concentrated in vacuo. Recrystallization from acetone to give compound 2 (367 mg, 1.34 mmol, 73%). 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3), δ (ppm), 2.61-2.54 (m, 1H), 0.98 (S, 3H).

[0361]Synthesis of Compound 3.

[0362]To a solution of compound 2 (274 mg, 1 mmol) in methanol (4 mL) was added iodine (0.1 mmol). After stirring at 60 OC for 12 h, TLC showed no SM and the solvent was removed in vacuo. The crude product was dissolved in dichloromethane (20 mL) and washed with saturated NaHCO3 (15 mL), brine, dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated. The residue was purified by chromatography on basic alumina (petroleum ether / ethyl acetate=9:1...

[0386]Synthesis of Compound 11a and 11b.

[0387]To a solution of compound 5 (800 mg, 2.79 mmol) and PhSO2CF2H (540 mg, 2.79 mmol) in THF (25 mL) and HMPA (0.5 mL) at −78° C. under N2 was added LHMDS (4 mL, 1M in THF) dropwise. After stirring at −78° C. for 2 h, the reaction mixture was quenched with saturated aqueous NH4Cl solution (10 mL) and allowed to warm to room temperature then extracted with Et2O (20 mL×3). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrate. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (petroleum ether / ethyl acetate=10 / 1) to give the mixture of compound 11a and 11b (700 mg). The mixture was further purified by chiral-HPLC to afford compound 11a (200 mg, t=4.31 min).

Description

RELATED APPLICATIONS[0001]The present application claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) to U.S. provisional patent applications, U.S. Ser. No. 61 / 547,291, filed Oct. 14, 2011 and U.S. Ser. No. 61 / 698,204, filed Sep. 7, 2012, each of which is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Brain excitability is defined as the level of arousal of an animal, a continuum that ranges from coma to convulsions, and is regulated by various neurotransmitters. In general, neurotransmitters are responsible for regulating the conductance of ions across neuronal membranes. At rest, the neuronal membrane possesses a potential (or membrane voltage) of approximately −70 mV, the cell interior being negative with respect to the cell exterior. The potential (voltage) is the result of ion (K+, Na+, Cl−, organic anions) balance across the neuronal semipermeable membrane. Neurotransmitters are stored in presynaptic vesicles and are released under the influence of neuronal action poten...
