Background Art

[0002] Acute T-lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is a rare cancer (Non-Patent Document 1) that often occurs in children. Its course is poor. Even if the symptoms are once improved by the treatment of ordinary leukemia, it is likely to deteriorate again. Moreover, when it deteriorates again, existing anti-leukemia drugs become ineffective. In addition, to date, anti-leukemia drugs specialized for T-ALL have not been developed, and the development of T-ALL-specific therapeutic agents is globally demanded.

[0003] Under such circumstances, the present inventors have identified, as compounds that suppress the growth of human T-ALL cell line CCRF-CEM but do not affect the growth of human B-lymphoma cell line Raji, by large-scale screening of natural compounds, the following structural formula:

Chemical formula

[0004] On the other hand, the present inventors have attempted the organic synthesis of related compounds having a structure similar to the above Auxarconjugatin B and have found compounds having selective growth inhibitory activity against T-ALL etc. (Patent Documents 1, 2).

Chemical formula

[0044] Examples of the pyrrole derivative represented by the above general formula (1) include the following general formula (1B): [Chemistry] Compounds represented by the formula and in which R in the general formula (1B) is OH or OMe are also preferred. Compounds represented by the general formula (1B) and in which R in the general formula (1B) is OH or OMe are also easy to synthesize, are hardly oxidized and metabolized, and further have excellent growth inhibitory activity and selectivity against cancer cells.

[0045] The pyrrole derivative represented by the above general formula (1) can be synthesized by any method. For example, first, a formyl compound having a pyrrole ring such as 2-formylpyrrole (also referred to as "pyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde"), 2-formyl-3-chloropyrrole, etc. is prepared. The formyl compound may be a commercially available reagent or can also be obtained by synthesis. For example, in the case of synthesis, an ester such as methyl 3-chloro-1H-pyrrole-2-carboxylate is used as a starting material and reduced with a reducing agent such as lithium aluminum hydride to obtain a hydroxy compound. Next, the obtained hydroxy compound is oxidized with an oxidizing agent such as 2-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) to obtain a formyl compound.

[0046] Next, the hydrogen of the pyrrole ring of the formyl compound is protected with di-tert-butyl dicarbonate to obtain a Boc-protected compound. For the obtained Boc-protected compound, a Wittig reaction is carried out using a phosphorus ylide such as (4-bromobenzyl)triphenylphosphonium bromide to obtain a Boc-protected bromo compound having a vinylene unit (-CH=CH-) and an aromatic ring (benzene ring, pyridine ring, pyrimidine ring, etc.). Deprotection is carried out on the obtained Boc-protected bromo compound using sodium methoxide or the like to obtain a bromo compound having a vinylene unit (-CH=CH-) and an aromatic ring (benzene ring, pyridine ring, pyrimidine ring, etc.).

[0047] Next, the pyrrole derivative represented by the general formula (1) can be synthesized by performing a Suzuki coupling of the bromo compound with an organoboron compound such as phenylboronic acid, methylphenylboronic acid, chlorophenylboronic acid, hydroxyphenylboronic acid, acetoxyphenylboronic acid, methoxyphenylboronic acid, dimethoxyphenylboronic acid, trimethoxyphenylboronic acid, pyridylboronic acid, pyrimidylboronic acid, etc.

[0048] As another method for the pyrrole derivative represented by the above general formula (1), for example, first, a monobromo compound having a vinylene unit (-CH=CH-) is prepared. The monobromo compound is mesyl (Ms) -protected with methanesulfonyl chloride with respect to a formyl compound such as 3-chloro-1H-pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde, and the obtained mesyl-protected compound is dibrominated using carbon tetrabromide and triphenylphosphine to obtain a dibromo compound, which can be obtained by performing debromination on the dibromo compound using dimethyl phosphite.

[0049] Next, a pyrrole derivative represented by the general formula (1) can be synthesized by the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of the monobromo compound and a boronic acid. Specifically, a biphenyl compound is obtained by the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling of a starting material such as 5-bromo-2-chloroanisole or 5-bromo-2-chlorophenol and 4-methoxyphenylboronic acid, etc., and a boronic acid is obtained by reacting the biphenyl compound with bis(pinacolato)diboron. After performing the Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reaction using the boronic acid and the monobromo compound, the pyrrole derivative represented by the general formula (1) can be synthesized by deprotecting the Ms group with tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF).

[0050] (Pyrrole derivative represented by general formula (2)) The pyrrole derivative of the present invention is represented by the following general formula (2):

In addition, the pyrrole derivative represented by the general formula (2) has m as an integer of 1 to 3 and does not have a site where 4 or more C=C bonds are consecutive. Therefore, it is difficult to be oxidized and metabolized in the body and can easily reach the target. Thus, a pharmaceutical composition containing the pyrrole derivative represented by the general formula (2) or a salt thereof as an active ingredient is useful for the treatment of cancer.

[0052] In the above general formula (2), A b1 is each independently (R a ) p where p is an integer of 1 to 3, and R a is each independently CR b 2 , NR b , O, S or C=O, and R b is each independently H, C n H 2n+1 , F, Cl, Br or I, where n is each independently an integer of 1 to 3. "C n H 2n+1 " is a methyl group, an ethyl group, an n-propyl group, or an isopropyl group because n is an integer of 1 to 3. A in the above general formula (2) b1 reduces the lipophilicity of the compound. Therefore, the pyrrole derivative represented by the general formula (2) has low lipophilicity, so the absorption rate in the intestinal tract is improved and it has excellent medicinal effects. A in the above general formula (2) b1 is preferably NH, O, CH 2 -NH or CH 2 -O.

[0267] [Table 2]

[0268] [Table 3]

[0269] From Tables 1, 2 and 3, it can be seen that the compounds represented by the general formula (I) have an inhibitory effect on the growth of cancer cells. In addition, the compounds represented by the general formula (I) inhibit the growth of the human T-ALL cell line CCRF-CEM at low concentrations and meet the criteria of not affecting the growth of the human B lymphoma cell line Raji at the same concentration, and it can be seen that they have the same tendency as the natural compound Auxarconjugatin B. Also, from Table 2, it can be seen that the compounds represented by the general formula (2) or the general formula (3) have low lipophilicity (high water solubility).

Industrial Applicability

[0270] The pyrrole derivative of the present invention or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof can be used in a pharmaceutical composition for cancer treatment.
