AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The patent describes a new screening technology that allows for fast and efficient screening of relevant chemical space for target molecules. This method can be used with a variety of targets, including large proteins and protein complexes, and can provide a direct readout of inhibition of target activity. The method can also use commercial protein sources, saving time and cost. Additionally, this method allows for conducting fragment assembly under denaturing conditions, which can introduce new opportunities for introducing chemical diversity. Overall, this approach offers a more efficient and cost-effective way to discover new ligands for targets.

Problems solved by technology

This can prove difficult to achieve in practice.
In many ways such high throughput screening processes have not effectively accelerated identification of new chemical entities with desirable properties.
Although productive techniques have been developed to identify and optimize individual fragments, the goal of merging two or more fragments to generate high-affinity compounds remains a significant challenge due to the difficulty of identifying suitable linking moieties.
However, the high investment in protein engineering and production required to support structure-based methods or Tethering with Extenders can limit the extent to which these approaches can be routinely used.

Compound 4

[0270]

[0271]A mixture of 4-chlorothieno[3,2-d]pyrimidine (0.698 g, 4.09 mmol) and cystamine dihydrochloride (0.462 g, 2.05 mmol) was suspended in 10 mL of dry dimethylformamide (DMF), and TEA (1.14 mL, 8.2 mmol) was added. The reaction was heated under nitrogen for 2 days at 60° C., evaporated to dryness, and triturated with 50 mL of water to remove the symmetrical disulfide. The precipitate was washed with 2×25 mL water, and the combined aqueous fractions were treated with tris-2-carboxyethylphosphine hydrochloride (0.59 g, 2.05 mmol) and 7 mL 1 M sodium hydroxide to bring the solution to pH 7. After 20 min the reaction was extracted with 3×30 mL EtOAc, the combined organics were rinsed with 40 mL brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated to 0.216 g of colorless solid which was purified by silica gel chromatography (95:5 DCM:MeOH, 14.5×4.25 cm column) to yield 150 mg of white solid. This was further purified by reverse phase HPLC to yield a total of 89 mg...

Compound 5

[0272]

[0273]Mono-Boc cystamine (tosylate salt, 0.349 g, 0.823 mmol) was suspended in 20 mL dry DCM and TEA (0.12 mL, 0.863 mmol) was added with stirring, followed by α.α.α-trifluoromethyl-tolyl-isocyanate (0.12 mL, 0.857 mmol). After 1 hr the reaction was evaporated to dryness, flooded with 50 mL EtOAc, rinsed with 2×25 mL 1 M NaOH, 2×25 mL 1 M HCl, 25 mL brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated to yield a yellow-brown oil. This was dissolved in 10 mL dry DCM and 10 mL TFA was added with stirring. After 30 min the reaction was evaporated to dryness, co-evaporated twice with DCM, and purified by reverse phase HPLC to yield 101 mg of Compound 5 as a colorless glass. ES (+) MS m / e=340 (M+1).

Compound 6 and Compound 8

[0274]

[0275]Intermediate 1:

[0276](2-Amino-thiazol-5-yl)-acetic acid methyl ester (0.488 g, 2.83 mmol) was suspended in 12 mL dry THF, and α,α,α-trifluoromethyl-tolyl-isocyanate (0.4 mL, 2.86 mmol) was added, followed by another 20 mL THF. After 30 min TEA (0.4 mL, 2.88 mmol) was added, and the reaction was allowed to stir for 8 hr. Then lithium borohydride (4.3 mL of 2 M stock in THF, 8.6 mmol) was added, and the reaction was allowed to stir overnight. The next day the reaction was quenched with 34 mL of 1 M HCl and 30 mL water, extracted with 3×25 mL EtOAc, and the combined organics were washed with 35 mL brine, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and evaporated to a yellow oil which was purified by silica gel column chromatography (95:5 DCM:MeOH, 15×4.25 cm column) to yield Intermediate 1 as a white solid (0.386 g, 1.17 mmol, 41%). ES (+) MS m / e=332 (M+1).

Abstract

Herein are described methods of chemical synthesis.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]Initial chemical approaches to the production of libraries by conventional techniques may be led by a random approach to structure design, computational chemistry and predictive modeling, analogue design based on compounds with known structure and activity, medicinal chemistry intuition, or combinations of these approaches. The libraries of compounds so produced are then screened for activity against targets of interest.[0002]The use of combinatorial chemistry to accelerate the identification of new chemical entities with desirable properties is well established. For example, in drug discovery, large collections of compounds are often synthesized very quickly using techniques collectively called “combinatorial chemistry.” These techniques can include the parallel synthesis of compound libraries using automated and non-automated methods, and may employ both solution phase and solid phase chemistry. Such libraries may be collections of discrete, indivi...
