[0006] FIELD
[0007] Disclosed herein are imidazopyridazine compounds, and pharmaceutical compositions thereof, which modulate Interleukin- 17 A. Also disclosed herein is the therapeutic use of such compounds, for example, in treating and / or ameliorating an IL-17A mediated inflammatory syndrome, disorder, or disease.
[0008] BACKGROUND
[0009] Interleukin- 17 (“IL-17”), also known as IL-17A and CTLA-8, is produced mainly by CD4+ Thl7 cells, and also by other immune cells such as CD8+ T cells, gd T cells, NK cells, NKT cells, and innate lymphoid cells (ILCs). IL-17A exists as a homodimer (A / A) or as a heterodimer (A / F) with IL-17F and signals through binding to dimeric receptor complex IL-17RA and IL-17RC. IL-17RA is ubiquitously expressed at particularly high levels by haematopoietic cell types, whereas IL- 17RC is preferentially expressed by non-haematopoietic cells (Gaffen, S. Structure and signaling in the IL-17 receptor family. Nat. Rev. Immunol. 2009, 9, 556-567). IL-17A / IL-17R signaling induces de novo gene transcription by triggering NF-kB, C / EBP and MAPK pathways through ACT1-TRAF6-TRAF4. It can also stabilize target mRNA transcripts through the ACT1-TRAF2- TRAF5 complex (AmatyaN. e / a / ., Trends in Immunology, 2017, 38, 310-322). IL-17A stimulates the release of inflammatory mediators including IL-6, IL-8, G-CSF, TNF-a, and IL-Ib that recruit and activate lymphocytes to the site of injury or inflammation and maintain a proinflammatory state.
[0010] As discussed below, preclinical and clinical data have demonstrated the significant pathological role of IL-17A in multiple autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.
[0011] For psoriasis: IL-17A mRNA and / or protein levels are elevated in the lesional skin and blood of patients with psoriasis and correlate with disease severity. IL-17A acts directly in synergy with other cytokines (such as TNFa, IFNy or IL-22) on keratinocytes triggering a self-amplifying inflammatory response in the skin and leading to the formation of psoriatic plaques. The blockade of IL-17A by means of antibodies to IL-17A or IL-23 results in complete reversal of the molecular and clinical disease features in majority of psoriasis patients, manifesting the significant role of IL-17A and IL-17-producing T-cells in the immunopathogenesis of psoriasis. (Hawkes el al ., Psoriasis Pathogenesis and the Development of Novel, Targeted Immune Therapies. J Allergy Clin Immunol. 2017, 140(3): 645-653). The development and approval of IL-17 monoclonal antibodies such as secukinumab, ixekizumab, and brodalumab and their transformational efficacy for psoriasis have demonstrated IL-17A as a valid target for psoriasis treatments. (Blauvelt A. and Chiricozzi A. The Immunologic Role of IL-17 in Psoriasis and Psoriatic Arthritis Pathogenesis. Clin Rev Allergy Immunol. 2018, 55(3):379-390).
[0012] For psoriatic arthritis (PsA): IL-17A is mechanistically relevant to PsA through NFKB activation that triggers transcription of several PsA related genes including the receptor activator of nuclear factor KB ligand (RANKL). RANKL triggers the differentiation of osteoclast precursor cells into activated osteoclasts, resulting in bone resorption and subsequently joint deformity in PsA (Adamopoulos I. and Mellins E. Nature reviews Rheumatology 2015; 11 :189-94). PsA joint is enriched for IL-17+CD8+ T cells, and the levels of this T cell subset are correlated with disease activity (Menon B. et al., Arthritis & Rheumatology 2014; 66: 1272-81). Synovial fibroblasts isolated from PsA patients also contain elevated IL-17R expression and secrete increased IL-6, CXCL8 and MMP3 ex vivo compared to osteoarthritis patients. Both secukinumab and ixekizumab are FDA approval drugs for PsA. In matching-adjusted indirect comparison analysis, secukinumab was associated with higher ACR 20 / 50 / 70 response rates in patients with active PsA than anti- TNFa antibodies (Mease P. etal ., Eur. J. Rheumatol. 2019 Jul 1;6(3): 113-121; Strand V. etal ., J. Comp. Eff. Res. 2019, 8(7):497-510; Nash P. et al. , Rheumatol. Ther. 2018, 5(1):99-122). In a recent head-to-head study, ixekizumab was superior to adalimumab in achieving simultaneous improvement of joint and skin disease (ACR50 and PASI100) in patients with PsA and inadequate response to conventional synthetic disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (Mease, P. et al. Ann Rheum Diss 2020; 79:123-131). By hitting the same target, IL-17A small molecule inhibitor compounds may exert similar or better efficacy than biologies considering that small molecules generally have better tissue penetration.
[0013] For rheumatoid arthritis (RA): IL-17A has been recognized as critical to the progression of rheumatoid arthritis. “The recognition of IL-17 as a pro-inflammatory T cell derived cytokine, and its abundance within rheumatoid joints, provides the strongest candidate mechanism to date through which T cells can capture and localize macrophage effector functions in rheumatoid arthritis” Stamp, L. et al., Immunol. Cell Biol. 2004, 82(1): 1-9. Moreover, in rheumatoid arthritis IL-17A acts locally on synoviocytes and osteoblasts contributing to synovitis and joint destruction. Robert and Miossec have proposed the use of synovial biopsies and / or biomarkers to precisely identify patients that would respond to IL-17A inhibition. Their work concludes that IL-17 inhibitors should now be considered in the development of precision medicine in RA. (Robert M. and Miossec P., Front. Med., 2019, 5:364)
[0014] For Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS): Various studies have reported elevated IL-17A and Thl7 and other cells producing IL-17 in AS blood samples (Wendling D. et al., Joint Bone Spine. 2007;74:304-305; Shen H. et al. , Arthritis Rheum. 2009;60(6): 1647-56; Zhang L. et al. , PLoS One. 2012;7(4):e31000; Jansen D. et al., Rheumatology (Oxford). 2015 Apr; 54(4) : 728-735). In situ analysis of AS spine has revealed increased IL-17A-producing cells in bone of facet (zygapophyseal) joints (Appel H. et al., Arthritis Res. Ther. 2011;13(3):R95). Two advanced IL- 17A neutralizing antibodies, secukinumab, approved by FDA for AS, and ixekizumab, have demonstrated efficacy over placebo even in anti-TNF inadequate responders. In contrast, anti-IL- 23 p40 and pl9 biologies failed to demonstrate beneficial effect (Deodhar A. et al., Arthritis Rheumatol. 2019, 71(2):258-270; Baeten D. et al., Ann. Rheum. Dis. 2018,77(9): 1295-1302), indicating the differential underling mechanism along IL-23 / IL-17 pathway in AS and providing a strong evidence to support continuing developing IL-17A inhibitors.
[0015] For hidradenitis suppurativa (FIS): Increased IL-17 and IL-17-producing T helper cells in the skin lesions of HS patients were reported and molecular proteomics and gene expression data indicate that the IL-23 / Thl7 pathway is upregulated in HS lesions (Schlapbach C. et al., J. Am. Acad. Dermatol. 2011;65(4):790; Kelly G. et al., British J. Dermatol. 2015 Dec; 173(6): 1431-9; Moran B. et al., J. Invest. Dermatol. 2017; 137(11):2389; Thomi R. et al., JAMA Dermatol. 2018;154(5):592). Seven of nine (78%) patients with moderate-to-severe HS achieved HiSCR in an open-label pilot-trial with Secukinumab (Prussick L. et al., British J. Dermatol. 2019 Sep;181(3):609-611), and more clinical trials with anti-IL-17 mAbs in HS are on-going.
[0016] For bullous pemphigoid (BP): IL-17 is elevated in the blister fluid and perilesional skin of BP patients. (Le Jan S. et al., J. Invest. Dermatol. 2014; 134 (12):2908-2917.; Chakievska L. J Autoimmun. 2019, 96:104-112). Exome sequencing of BP patients revealed mutations in twelve IL-17-related genes in one third of patients, providing the genetic link between IL-17 pathway and BP (Chakievska L. J Autoimmun. 2019, 96: 104-112). In experimental murine BP, IL-17 A- / - mice are protected, and anti-IL-17A treatment significantly reduced skin lesions in wild type (Chakievska L. J Autoimmun. 2019, 96:104-112). Ixekizumab Phase 2 of treatment naive and refractory BP patients is on-going (NCT03099538).
[0017] For atopic dermatitis (AD): IL-17 was found to be elevated in peripheral blood and lesions in AD patients and Thl7 cells infiltrated more markedly in acute than chronic lesions, suggesting its role in acute phase of AD (Koga C. et al., J. Invest. Dermatol. 2008, 128, 2625-2630). Molecular profile analysis from ustekinumab Phase II suggest likely contribution of IL-23 / Thl7 / IL-17 pathway in AD (Khattri S. et al., Exp. Dermatol. 2017 Jan;26(l):28-35).
[0018] For vitiligo: Many studies in vitiligo patients have demonstrated an increased frequency of Thl7 cells and higher levels of IL-17 in both circulation and lesions that positively correlates with disease duration, extent, and activity (Singh R. etal., Autoimmun. Rev 2016, Apr; 15 (4): 397-404). Mouse studies demonstrated that depigmentation correlates with greater IL-17 expression / secretion, which modulates vitiligo development (Eby J. et al ., Pigment Cell & Melanoma Res. 2014, Nov;27(6): 1075-85).
[0019] For multiple sclerosis (MS): IL-17 expression is increased in PBMCs, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) as well as in brain lesions and cells from MS patients (Lock, C. et al, Nat. Med. 2002, 8: 500- 508; Matusevicius, D. et al., Mult. Scler. 1999, 5: 101-104; Tzartos, J. et al, Am. J. Pathol. 2008, 172: 146-155). IL-17-producing T cells are enriched in active MS lesions (Tzartos, J. et al, Am. J. Pathol. 2008, 172: 146-155; Willing A. etal, J. Immunol. 2018, 200(3):974-982). IL-17Alevels were elevated in the CSF of relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS) patients and correlated with the CSF / serum albumin quotient, a measure of blood-brain barrier (BBB) dysfunction, together with in vitro data that IL-17A in combination with IL-6 reduced the expression of tight junction - associated genes and disrupted monolayer integrity in a BBB cell line, highlighting the potential importance of targeting IL-17A in preserving BBB integrity in RRMS (Setiadi AF et al, J Neuroimmunol. 2019, 332:147-154). Secukinumab yielded promising first results in a proof-of- concept study in MS patients (Havrdova, E. etal, J. Neurol. 2016, 263: 1287-1295).
[0020] For Asthma: IL-17 expression is increased in the lung, sputum, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, and sera in patients with asthma, and the severity of airway hyperresponsiveness is positively correlated with IL-17 expression levels. (Chakir J. et al, J. Allergy Clin. Immunol. 2003, 111(6): 1293-8). IL-17 was reported to be increased in asthmatic airways and induce human bronchial fibroblasts to produce cytokines (Molet S. et al, J. Allergy Clin. Immunol. 2001, 108(3):430-8). Anti-IL-17 antibody modulates airway responsiveness, inflammation, tissue remodeling, and oxidative stress in chronic mouse asthma models (Camargo LdN. et al, Front Immunol. 2018; 8:1835; dos Santos T. etal, Front. Physiol. 2018, 9:1183).
[0021] For Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): An increase in Thl7 cells was observed in patients with COPD compared with current smokers without COPD and healthy subjects, and inverse correlations were found between Thl7 cells with lung function (Vargas-Rojas M. et al, Respir. Med. 2011 Nov; 105(11): 1648-54). In three recent human COPD studies, gene expression profile in bronchial epithelia showed that higher IL-17 signature expression is associated with a lack of response to inhaled corticosteroid, suggesting that there is a COPD subgroup that may benefit from IL-17 inhibitor therapy (Christenson S. et al., J. Clin. Invest. 2019; 129(1): 169—181).
[0022] For Uveitis: IL-17 promotes the release of inflammatory mediators from retinal pigment epithelium cell line, disrupting the retinal pigment epithelium barrier function (Chen Y. et al., PLoS One. 2011;6:el8139). IL-17 levels were elevated in the serum or aqueous humor of uveitis patients (El-Asrar A. et al., Clin. Immunol. 2011; 139(2): 177-84; Jawad S. etal., Ocul. Immunol. Inflamm. 2013; 21(6):434-9; Kuiper J. etal. , Am. J. Ophthalmol. 2011 ; 152(2): 177- 182 ). Anti-IL- 17 antibody delayed the onset of ocular inflammation and markedly inhibited the development of experimental autoimmune uveitis in rats (Zhang R. et al., Curr. Eye Res. 2009 Apr; 34(4): 297- 303). The analysis of secondary efficacy data from subcutaneous (sc) secukinumab phase 3 trials in uveitis suggested a beneficial effect of secukinumab in reducing the use of concomitant immunosuppressive medication (Dick A. etal., Ophthalmology 2013; 120(4):777-87). Later study of intravenous secukinumab in uveitis demonstrated greater efficacy than sc dosing, suggesting requiring optimal exposure for efficacy and confirming the therapeutic potential of IL-17A inhibition (Letko E. et al., Ophthalmology 2015, 122(5), 939-948). Ustekinumab that blocks IL- 23 / IL-17 pathway was also reported to successfully treat a noninfectious uveitis patient who had severe concomitant psoriasis and PsA and failed to respond to conventional immune suppressants (Mugheddu C. etal., Dermatol. Ther. 2017 Sep;30(5);el2527.).
[0023] For multiple myeloma (MM): IL-17A serum levels were significantly higher in MM patients and also in patients with advanced stage compared with healthy subjects (Lemancewicz D. etal., Med. Sci. Monit. 2012; 18(1): BR54-BR59). Administration of secukinumab in the SCIDhu model of human myeloma weekly for 4 weeks after the first detection of tumor in mice led to a significant inhibition of tumor growth and reduced bone damage compared to isotype control mice (Prabhala R. et al., Leukemia. 2016 February; 30(2): 379-389).
[0024] For systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE): Increased serum or plasma levels of IL-17, expansion of IL-17-producing T cells in the peripheral blood, and infiltration of Thl7 cells in target organs like the kidneys was observed in SLE patients (Wong C. et al., Lupus. 2000;9(8):589-593; Wong C. et al., Clinical Immunology. 2008;127(3):385-393; Zhao X-F. et al., Mol. Biol. Rep. 2010 Jan;37(l):81-5; Chen X. etal ., J. Clin. Immunol. 2010Mar;30(2):221-5; Xing Q. et al., Rheumatol. Int. 2012 Apr; 32(4):949-58). Imbalance between Thl7 cells and regulatory T (Treg) cells has been observed in SLE patients including quiescent stage (Ma J. et al., Clin. Rheumatol. 2010;29(11): 1251-1258; Dolff S. et al. , Clin. Immunol. 2011, 141(2): 197-204). Overexpression of IL-17A using adenovirus enhanced the severity of lupus nephritis, while blockade of IL-17A using neutralizing antibody resulted in decreased severity of lupus nephritis (Wen, Z. etal., PLoS One. 2013, 8: e58161). In a phase 2 study, ustekinumab, an anti-IL- 12 / 23 p40 monoclonal antibody blocking IL-23 / IL-17 pathway, has demonstrated efficacy in SLE patients (van Vollenhoven R. et al., Lancet 2018; 392: 1330-39). Human expression studies, animal models, and clinical trials indicate that IL-17 blockade may become a promising therapeutic strategy for SLE ( Koga T. et al., Expert Rev. Clin. Immunol. 2019, 15 (6) 629-637).
[0025] In summary, animal and human studies have shown that IL-17A plays crucial role in pathogenesis of the multiple diseases and / or conditions discussed above. The significance of targeting IL-17A has been demonstrated by the transformational efficacy of IL-17A neutralizing antibodies in patients. While no oral small molecule IL-17A inhibitors have progressed into late stage clinical trials yet, they are in an attractive area for discovery as their development may broaden treatment options for many patients without access to biologies. In addition, a safe and efficacious small molecule IL-17A inhibitor may offer significant benefits to patients such as convenient dosing regimens and cost savings, which in turn may provide effective long-term disease management. Accordingly, there is a need for new small molecule IL-17A modulators (e.g., inhibitors).

[0073] The term “halogen” refers to bromo (-Br), chloro (-C1), fluoro (-F) or iodo (-1).
[0074] Where the compounds disclosed herein have at least one stereocenter, they may accordingly exist as enantiomers or diastereomers. It is to be understood that all such isomers and mixtures thereof are encompassed within the scope of the present invention.
[0075] “Diastereoi somers” are stereoisomers that have at least two asymmetric atoms, but which are not mirror images of each other.
[0076] “Enantiomers” are a pair of stereoisomers that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other. A “racemic” mixture is a 1:1 mixture of a pair of enantiomers. A “scalemic” mixture of enantiomers is mixture of enantiomers at a ratio other than 1:1.
[0077] Where the processes for the preparation of the compounds according to the invention give rise to mixture of stereoisomers, these isomers may be separated by conventional techniques such as preparative chromatography. The compounds may be prepared in racemic form, a scalemic mixture, or individual enantiomers may be prepared either by enantiospecific synthesis or by resolution. The compounds may, for example, be resolved into their component enantiomers by standard techniques, such as the formation of diastereomeric pairs by salt formation with an optically active acid, such as (-)-di- / oluoyl-D-tartaric acid and / or (+)-di - / Mol uoyl -L-tartari c acid followed by fractional crystallization and regeneration of the free base. The compounds may also be resolved by formation of diastereomeric esters or amides, followed by chromatographic separation and removal of the chiral auxiliary. Alternatively, the compounds may be resolved using a chiral column vial HPLC or SFC. In some instances rotamers of compounds may exist which are observable by ¾ NMR leading to complex multiplets and peak integration in the 'H NMR spectrum. The absolute stereochemistry is specified according to the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog R-S system. Chiral centers, of which the absolute configurations are known, are labelled by prefixes R and S, assigned by the standard sequence-rule procedure, and preceded when necessary by the appropriate locants {Pure & Appl. Chem. 45, 1976, 11-30). Certain examples contain chemical structures that are depicted or labelled as an (R*) or S*). When (R*) or S*) is used in the name of a compound or in the chemical representation of the compound, it is intended to convey that the compound is a pure single isomer at that stereocenter; however, absolute configuration of that stereocenter has not been established. Thus, a compound designated as (R*) refers to a compound that is a pure single isomer at that stereocenter with an absolute configuration of either (R) or S), and a compound designated as S*) refers to a compound that is a pure single isomer at that stereocenter with an absolute configuration of either R) or (S). For example, N-{{S)-{7-{{S*)~ Cyclopropyl(4,4,4-trifluorobutanamido)methyl)imidazo[l,2-0]pyridazin-2-yl)(4,4- difluorocyclohexyl)methyl)-l -(3,3,3-trifluoropropyl)- l / / -pyrazole-4-carboxamide: , refers to a compound that is either:
[0078] Pseudoasymmetric stereogenic centers are treated in the same way as chiral centers, but are given lower-case symbols, r or 5 (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 1982, 27, 567-583).
[0079] During any of the processes for preparation of the compounds disclosed herein, it may be necessary and / or desirable to protect sensitive or reactive groups on any of the molecules concerned. This may be achieved by means of conventional protecting groups, such as those described in Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry ed. J.F.W. McOmie, Plenum Press, 1973; and T.W. Greene & P.G.M. Wuts. Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis John Wiley & Sons. 1991. The protecting groups may be removed at a convenient subsequent stage using methods known from the art.
[0080] Furthermore, it is intended that within the scope of the present invention, any element, in particular when mentioned in relation to a compound of the disclosure, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, shall comprise all isotopes and isotopic mixtures of said element, either naturally occurring or synthetically produced, either with natural abundance or in an isotopically enriched form. For example, a reference to hydrogen includes within its scope 'H,2H (i.e., deuterium or D), and ¾ (i.e., tritium or T). In some embodiments, the compounds described herein include a2H (i.e., deuterium) isotope. By way of example, the group denoted -C(i-6)alkyl includes not only -CFb, but also CD3; not only CH2CH3, but also CD2CD3, etc. Similarly, references to carbon and oxygen include within their scope respectively12C,13C and14C and150 and160 and170 and180. The isotopes may be radioactive or non-radioactive. Radiolabelled compounds of the disclsoure may include a radioactive isotope selected from the group comprising ¾,UC,18F,35S,122I,123I,125I,131I,75Br,76Br,77Br and82Br. Preferably, the radioactive isotope is selected from the group of3H,UC and18F.

[0535] R2= H R3a= H or F Certain compounds of formula I-aa in the present invention can be prepared, for example, according to Scheme 1. Cyanation of A-I using reagents such as zinc cyanide in the presence of a catalyst, such as Pd2(dba)3, affords nitriles A-II. Removal of the Boc group under acidic conditions, such as aqueous hydrochloric acid, afforded an amine that was subsequently coupled to a carboxylic acid through the use of a coupling agent, such as HATU or EDCI, in the presence of a base, such as DIPEA, in a solvent, such as DMF, MeCN, or DCM, with or without an additive, such as HOBt, to yield amides A-III. Reduction of the nitrile of A-III with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst, such as Raney nickel affords the corresponding primary amines A-IV, which can be coupled to carboxylic acids in a manner analogous to the conversion of A-II to A- III to give compounds of the general structure I-aa shown in Scheme 1.

[0541] Certain compounds of general structure I-aa-1 and I-aa in the present invention can also be prepared according to Scheme 2a and 2b, respectively. Removal of the Boc group of compounds of type A-Ia or A-Ib under acidic conditions, such as aqueous hydrochloric acid or TFA, affords amines of type A-V (e.g., A-Va and A-Vb). Amides of formula A- Via and A-VIb can be formed from A-Va and A-Vb, respectively, in a manner analogous to the conversion of A-II to A-III (see Scheme 1). Conversion of compounds of type A- VI to A- VII was conducted using a reagent mixture capable of transferring a vinyl group, such as potassium trifluoro(vinyl)borate, in the presence of a catalyst, such as Pd(dtbpf)Cl2. Compounds of general structure A- VII could be converted to compounds of structure A- VIII through the oxidative cleavage of the vinyl substituent using reagents, such as sodium periodate, in the presence of a catalyst, such as potassium osmate, in a solvent, such as aqueous 1,4-dioxane. Subsequent condensation of compounds of general structure A- VIII with fV)-(-)-2- ethyl-2-propanesulf a ide gives the corresponding sulfmimide, that upon addition of nucleophilic carbon-containing reagents, such as alkyl magnesium halides, yields sulfmamides of general structure A-IX. Conversion of compounds of structure A-IX to A-X could be conducted under acidic conditions, such as aqueous hydrochloric acid, and subsequently converted to compounds of general structure I-aa-1 and I-aa in a manner analogous to the conversion of A-II to A-III. Compounds of general structure I-aa obtained as mixtures of isomers were subjected to additional purification techniques, such as HPLC or SFC using columns with a chiral stationary phase, to give single-isomer products I-aa-1 and I-aa.
[0542] Compounds I-aa-2 can be prepared by the reaction shown in Scheme 2c. Treatment of L -oxides I- A with trimethyl phosphite in toluene generates compounds I-aa-2.
[0543] Scheme 2d
[0544] Compounds I-aa-3 can be prepared as shown Scheme 2d. Hydration of the olefin within I-A-I using reagents such as Co(acac)2, (cobalt(II) acetylacetonate), and PhSiH3 (phenyl si lane) in an oxygenated atmosphere in THF provides compounds I-aa-3. Scheme 3 amide formation
[0545] The compounds of formula I-aa in the present invention can also be prepared according to Scheme 3 in which the relative order of transformations is reversed compared to Scheme 2b. Aldehydes of formula A-XI can be formed from A-I (e.g., A-Ib) in a manner analogous to the conversion of A- VI to A- VIII. Similarly, compounds of general structure A-XII can be formed from A-XI in a manner analogous to the conversion of A- VIII to A-IX. Selective removal of the sulfmamide functionality from compounds of general structure A-XII under acidic conditions such, as aqueous hydrochloric acid in EtOAc, yields amines of general structure A-XIII. Acylation of A-XIII, followed by removal of the Boc group, and amide formation to give compounds of general structure I-aa could be conducted as described in the preceding schemes, though in some cases they were prepared (i) using an acid chloride in a solvent such as DCM, (ii) by direct conversion of an ester to an amide by heating with A1(CH3)3 in a solvent such as toluene or (iii) by conversion of the A-hydroxy succinate ester in the presence of DIPEA in a solvent such as acetonitrile.

[0549] R2X, Indium, THF (method f)
[0550] Compounds of the general structure A-XXXI can be made as shown in Scheme 3a. Following a sequence similar to that shown in Scheme 3 chlorides A-la can be converted in a two step sequence to the corresponding aldehydes A-XIa. Condensation of compounds A-XIa with either ( R )- or fV)-2-methyl-2-propanesulfinamide gives the corresponding sulfmimides A-XXX. Addition of grinard reagents, such as R2MgX (X= halide), in a solvent such as DCM (method a) to A-XXX yields compounds of the general formula A-XXXI. Addition of nucleophilic carbon- containing reagents such as TMSCF3 to A-XXX in the presence of reagents such as TBAF in solvents such as THF (method b) yields compounds of the general formula A-XXXI. Alternatively, addition of nucleophilic carbon-containing reagent such as TMSCHF2 in the presence of reagents such as potassium / cvv-butoxide in solvents such as THF (method c) affords compounds of the general formula A-XXXI. Trimethylsilylacteonitrile can be metallated using reagents such as tetrabutylammonium phenolate in a solvent such as THF (method d) to afford sulfmamides of general structure A-XXXI. Cycloalkyl nitriles can be deprotonated using bases such as LiHMDS in a solvent such as THF (method e) and upon addition to A-XXX provide compounds A-XXXI. Addition of indium reagents to A-XXX, such as allyl indium formed by in situ treatment of allyl bromide and indium in THF (method f), provides compounds A-XXXI. Scheme 3b
[0551] A-XXXIV
[0552] The compounds of formula A-XXXIV can be prepared according to Scheme 3b. Ketones of formula A-XXXIII can be formed from A-Ia using a vinyl transferring agent such as a 4, 4,5,5- tetramethyl-vinyl-l,3,2-dioxaborolane (J-III), in the presence of a catalyst, such as RuPhos Pd G3, followed by oxidative cleavage of the vinyl substituent using reagents such as sodium periodate in the presence of a catalyst such as potassium osmate in a solvent such as aqueous 1,4- dioxane. Reductive amination using reagents such as ammonium formate in the presence of a reducing agent such as sodium cyanoborohydride with an additive such as acetic acid in a solvent such as methanol yields amines of general structure A-XXXIV.

[0555] Amides of the structure A-XVIIa can be prepared as shown in Scheme 3c. Amide formation from amines A-XIIIa can be performed as described in previous schemes to provide A-XVa. Oxidative cleavage of the olefin within A-XVa using reagents such as sodium periodate and potassium permanganate in solvents such as 1,4-dioxane and water affords corresponding aldehydes A-XVIa. Treatment of A-XVIa with XtalFluor-E®in the presence of reagents such as triethylamine trihydrofluoride and DAST in solvents such as DCM then yields the corresponding geminally difluorinated products A-XVIIa. These may then be converted to analogs 1-aa using the sequence shown in Scheme 3.

[0559] Compounds of the general formula A-Xaa can be prepared using sequence shown in Scheme 3d. Protection of the amine within A-XIIIa using FmocCI in the presence of DIPEA in a solvent such as DCM then affords carbamates A-XVIIIa. Deprotection of the Boc group using an acid such as HCI in a solvent such as EtOAc then affords the corresponding amine hydrochloride salts A-XIXa. Sequential amide bond formation using conditions mentioned above and Fmoc deprotection using a reagent such as piperdine in a solvent such as DCM then affords amines A-Xaa.
[0560] Scheme 3e
[0561]
[0562] Compounds I-aa, such as I-aa-4, can be prepared as shown in Scheme 3e. Amide bond formation using conditions as described above using cyanoacetic acid yields amides A-XX.
