[Technical Field]

[0001] Related Applications This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 432,011, filed December 12, 2022, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63 / 429,356, filed December 1, 2022, the entire contents of each of which are incorporated herein by reference. Summary of the Invention [Means for solving the problem]

[0002] overview A family of double-stranded RNA-specific adenosine deaminase enzymes is encoded by the ADAR family genes. ADAR (adenosine deaminase acting on RNA) proteins enzymatically perform base editing (e.g., converting adenosine to inosine), which subsequently disrupts otherwise orthogonal Watson-Crick pairings.

[0003] Unlike the therapeutic use of CRISPR-Cas9 (which acts at the gene editing level and is therefore a permanent or genetic intervention), ADAR enzymes act on double-stranded RNA (which is a temporary molecule). Therefore, ADAR modulation has the potential to be a temporary, tunable, non-genetic therapeutic intervention. ADAR enzymes were previously called double-stranded RNA adenosine deaminase (dsRAD) ("Toward the therapeutic editing of mutated RNA sequences," PNAS, 1995, 92, 8298-8302). Rather than using the CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing approach (which runs the risk of permanent off-target gene mutations), RNA editing allows for modifications to the code for regulated protein production without permanent gene editing. Therefore, there is a long-standing need for therapeutic intervention at the ribonucleic acid-to-protein stage of molecular biology's central dogma, including the need for modulators of the spliceosome and ADAR enzymes.

[0004] Therefore, provided herein are commercially scalable synthetic methods and intermediates useful for preparing polyketides.These polyketides include 12-membered ring macrolides (including Compound A, Compound B, and pladienolides (including pladienolide A, pladienolide B, pladienolide C, pladienolide D, pladienolide E, pladienolide F, and pladienolide G)).These compounds regulate spliceosome, and these compounds have shown the ability to down-regulate the level of ADAR enzymes.

[0064] The following examples further illustrate aspects of the present disclosure, but in no way limit the teachings or disclosure set forth herein. [Example]

[0065] Example 1: Synthesis of intermediates and compound 14 as shown in Figure 1 Methods and materials are compared with Chan (2020) and WO2021 / 026273A1.

[0066] Step 1: 10-Camphorsulfonic acid (CSA), MeOH, 12 hours at 50°C, then buffer containing Ambersep 900(OH).

[0067] Advantages: Previous synthetic methods require large amounts of solvent to convert compound 1 to compound 3. The present method allows for a scalable preparation using 8 volumes of solvent, which is a key step in enabling access to kg-quantity production of compound 3.

[0068] Exemplary procedure: To a solution of compound 1 (10 g, 27.58 mmol, 1 equiv.) in MeOH (80 mL) was added CSA (961.03 mg, 4.14 mmol, 0.15 equiv.), and the mixture was stirred at 50 °C for 12 h. Ambersep 900(OH) (5 g) (strongly basic anion exchange resin; contains hydroxide bound to the resin via a quaternary ammonium) was added to adjust the pH between 7 and 8, and the solution was filtered and concentrated. The crude product (91% by NMR) was used directly in the next step.

[0069] Step 2: Buffer containing anisaldehyde dimethyl acetal, Amberlyst 15(H), CH2Cl2, then Ambersep 900(OH).

[0070] Advantages: As described above in step 1.

[0071] Exemplary procedure: 1-(Dimethoxymethyl)-4-methoxy-benzene (10.05 g, 55.18 mmol, 9.40 mL, 2 equiv.) and Amberlyst 15(H) (1 g, 27.59 mmol) (strongly acidic cation exchange resin; containing resin-bound sulfonic acid) were added sequentially to the crude product from step 1 (4.42 g, 27.59 mmol, 1 equiv.) in CHCl (120 mL) at 20 °C. The mixture was stirred at 20 °C for 2 h. The reaction mixture was filtered to remove the acid resin. Ambersep 900(OH) (5 g) was added to adjust the pH to 7-8, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to give a residue. Purification by column chromatography using a gradient of heptane to 3:1 heptane / EtOAc afforded pure 2 (4.7 g, 61%).

[0072] Step 3: KBr, TEMPO, NaHCO3, NaClO, CH2Cl2.

[0073] Advantage: Addition of KBr as a co-catalyst.

[0074] Exemplary procedures: As described elsewhere in Chan (2020) or WO2021 / 026273A1.

[0075] Step 4: EtOAc, LDA, THF.

[0076] Advantages: High yield addition to aldehydes.

[0077] Exemplary procedure: This procedure was carried out under N2 atmosphere until quenched with water. LDA (0.69 M, 158 mL, 1.50 equiv) was slowly added to a solution of EtOAc (8.29 g, 94.1 mmol, 9.21 mL, 1.30 equiv) in THF (180 mL) at -70 °C. The mixture was stirred at -70 °C for 1 h. A solution of compound 4 (20.0 g, 72.4 mmol, 1.00 equiv) in THF (60 mL) was added at -60 °C. The mixture was stirred at -70 °C for 0.5 h. The reaction mixture was quenched with saturated NH4Cl (100 mL) at -40 °C. The resulting solution was extracted with EtOAc (2 x 70 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with HO and dried over Na2SO4. After filtration through filter paper, the organic layer was concentrated under reduced pressure to give a residue. Purification by column chromatography using a gradient of petroleum ether to 15:1 petroleum ether / EtOAc gave pure compound 5 (23.0 g, 84.9%).

[0078] Step 5: Two methods were found to be viable: IBX (3 equiv.), EtOAc, 70 °C, 24 h; or DCC (3 equiv.), pyridine·TFA (0.5 equiv.), DMSO, 20 °C, 12 h, 60% (Pfitzner-Moffatt).

[0079] Advantages: By allowing oxidation to an achiral species that allows chiral reduction in step 6, the IBX process has advantages at the gram scale, while the Pfitzner-Moffat process can be used to reach the kg scale.

[0080] Exemplary procedure (IBX): IBX (22.5 g, 80.3 mmol) was added to compound 5 (9.8 g, 26.7 mmol) in EtOAc (300 mL). The mixture was heated at 70° C. with rapid stirring for 24 hours. After this period, it was cooled to room temperature and filtered. Pure compound 6 (5.9 g, 61%) was obtained by flash plug chromatography eluting with aliquots of 4:1 heptane:EtOAc, 3:1 heptane:EtOAc, and 2:1 heptane:EtOAc.

[0081] Exemplary procedure (Pfitzner-Moffatt): Alcohol compound 5 (50 mg, 0.14 mmol) was dissolved in DMSO (5 mL) and DCC (84.9 mg, 0.41 mmol) was added. After stirring at room temperature for 12 h, HO (20 mL) was added. Extraction with EtOAc (4 × 50 mL), drying over NaSO, and concentration by rotary evaporation afforded the crude product. Pure compound 6 (0.30 g, 60%) was obtained by flash plug chromatography eluting with aliquots of 4:1 heptane:EtOAc, 3:1 heptane:EtOAc, and 2:1 heptane:EtOAc.

[0082] Step 6: GDH, ketoreductase, D-glucose, phosphate buffer pH 7.

[0083] Advantages: Highly stereoselective reduction process with chiral purity of 99.6%.

[0084] Exemplary procedure: To a mixture of D-glucose (10.8 g, 59.9 mmol, 6.04 equiv.), GDH from Bacillus megaterium (360 mg), NADP+ (360 mg), and KRED from Hansenula polymorpha (3.60 g) in phosphate buffer (pH 6.5-7) (180 mL) was added compound 6 (3.60 g, 9.93 mmol, 1.00 equiv.) in DMSO (10 mL) at 30 °C dropwise, and the mixture was stirred at 30 °C for 18 h. HPLC analysis indicated that 15.6% of compound 6 (retention time 3.033 min) remained, and 75.4% of the product, compound 7 (retention time 2.813 min), was detected. The reaction mixture was quenched with CH3CN (320 mL), filtered, and the filtrate was collected. The resulting solution was diluted with EtOAc (150 mL), and the organic phase was separated, washed with brine (100 mL), dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated to give compound 7 (3.50 g, crude product, chiral purity: 99.6%) as a yellow oil.

[0085] Step 7: TBSCl, imidazole, CH2Cl2 or TBSOTf, 2,6-lutidine, CH2Cl2.

[0086] Advantages: The TBSCl procedure is more scalable than the TBSOTf procedure.

[0087] Exemplary procedure (TBSCl): Imidazole (2.00 g, 29.4 mmol, 3.06 equiv) and TBSCl (3.00 g, 19.90 mmol, 2.44 mL, 2.07 equiv) were added sequentially to a solution of compound 7 (3.50 g, 9.60 mmol, 1.00 equiv) in CHCl (3 mL) at 25 °C. The mixture was stirred at 25 °C for 12 h. HO (30 mL) was added to the reaction mixture, the resulting solution was extracted with CHCl (2 × 20 mL), and the combined organic layers were washed with HO and dried over NaSO. After filtration through paper, the organic layer was concentrated under reduced pressure to give a residue. Purification by column chromatography using a gradient of petroleum ether to 10:1 petroleum ether / EtOAc afforded pure compound 8 (4 g, crude product).

[0088] Step 8: KOH, MeOH.

[0089] Advantages: Provides easy conversion to compound 9.

[0090] Exemplary procedure: To a solution of compound 8 (4.00 g, 8.36 mmol, 1.00 equiv) in HO (10 mL) and MeOH (40 mL) at 20 °C was added KOH (1.20 g, 21.4 mmol, 2.56 equiv), and the mixture was then stirred at 20 °C for 1 h. The reaction mixture was adjusted to pH 5-6 with 5% citric acid (150 mL) below 0 °C, extracted with CHCl (200 mL), washed with HO (150 mL), dried over NaSO, filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to give a residue. Purification by column chromatography using a gradient of petroleum ether to 20:1 petroleum ether / EtOAc afforded pure compound 9 (2.5 g, 66.4%).

[0091] Step 9: Exemplary procedure: As described in Chan (2020) or WO2021 / 026273A1.

[0092] Step 10: Exemplary procedure: As described in Chan (2020) or WO2021 / 026273A1.

[0093] Step 11: Exemplary procedure: As described in Chan (2020) or WO2021 / 026273A1.

[0094] Step 12: Exemplary procedure: As described in Chan (2020) or WO2021 / 026273A1.

[0095] Example 2: Synthesis of intermediates and compound A as shown in Figure 2 Methods and materials are compared with Chan (2020) and WO2021 / 026273A1.

[0096] Step 13: Exemplary procedure: As described in Chan (2020) or WO2021 / 026273A1.

[0097] Step 14: Exemplary procedure: As described in Chan (2020) or WO2021 / 026273A1.

[0098] Step 15: Exemplary procedure: Synthesis as described in Chan (2020) or WO2021 / 026273A1, but with improved purification methods (step 15b and / or step 15c / d).

[0099] Advantages: Chromatographic and chemoenzymatic methods were developed to ensure that compound 19 could be produced in >99% enantiomeric purity with <1 ppm of organostannane by-products.

[0100] Step 15b: Conversion of a mixture of compound 19 and compound 19R to pure compound 19 or pure compound 19R. [ka]

[0101] Chlorotriphenylsilane (3.91 g, 13.26 mmol, 0.3 equiv.) was added to a solution of crude compound 19 (10 g, 44.19 mmol, 1 equiv.; a mixture of compound 19 and compound 19R), DMAP (539.82 mg, 4.42 mmol, 0.1 equiv.), and pyridine (17.48 g, 220.93 mmol, 17.83 mL, 5 equiv.) in CHCl (70 mL) at 25 °C. The mixture was stirred at 25 °C for 12 h. TLC (5:1 petroleum ether / EtOAc) showed the formation of one new spot. The reaction mixture was quenched by the addition of HO (150 mL) at 0 °C and then extracted with MTBE (2 × 150 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with 10% citric acid until the pH of the aqueous phase reached 3–4. The organic layer was then dried over Na2SO4, filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure to give a residue (22.5 g). The residue was dissolved in MTBE (150 mL) and 34 g of silica gel (100 mesh-200 mesh) was added. It was then concentrated under reduced pressure to remove the solvent and give a residue. 170 g of silica gel (200 mesh-300 mesh) was then loaded into a chromatography column. The residue was purified by column chromatography (170 g of silica gel, 200 mesh-300 mesh, 100:0 to 1:1 petroleum ether / EtOAc). Compound 19R (eluted with 50:1 petroleum ether / EtOAc) and compound 19 (eluted with 3:1 petroleum ether / EtOAc) were collected and then concentrated to give 5.5 g of enantiopure compound 19.

[0102] Step 15c / d: Conversion of a mixture of compound 19 and compound 19R to pure compound 19. [ka]

[0103] Exemplary procedure: 2-iodoxybenzoic acid (IBX) (8.4 g, 30 mmol) was added to a solution of crude compound 19 (5.01 g, 22.1 mmol; a mixture of compound 19 and compound 19R) in anhydrous EtOAc (500 mL) in a 1 L flask. The mixture was stirred at 23 °C for 4 h, at which point the resulting mixture was filtered through a pad of silica gel (200 g) and concentrated to give a crude colorless oil containing compound 19O. This material was subjected to enzymatic reduction, which was initiated by dissolving the colorless oil containing compound 19O in isopropyl alcohol (200 mL). This was added to a buffer solution (3 L) containing Triton® X100 (60 mL). The enzymes KRED-A6-P2D5 (0.2 g) and NADP (0.05 g) were added. The reaction was stirred at 42 °C for 28 h. Three extractions with EtOAc (500 mL) and washing with brine (200 mL) gave compound 19. The organic phases were combined, dried over NaSO, and concentrated on a rotary evaporator. Flash chromatography eluting with a gradient of hexane to 1:3 EtO / hexane gave pure compound 19 (3.8 g, 75%) as a colorless oil.

[0104] Step 16: Conversion of compound 19 to vinylstannane 20.

[0105] Exemplary procedure: PdCl(PPh) (1.55 g, 2.21 mmol) was added to a solution of compound 19 (5.01 g, 22.1 mmol) in anhydrous THF (200 mL) in a 500 mL flask. The mixture was cooled to 0° C., and n-BuSnH (17.9 mL, 66.3 mmol) was added dropwise. The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 45 minutes, at which point the resulting mixture was concentrated to give a crude black oil. The material was extracted into hexane, filtered through a pad of Celite, and eluted with hexane. The eluate was concentrated on a rotary evaporator, and this process was repeated twice to give a clear, black solution.

[0106] Pure compound 20 (5.72 g, 50%) was obtained as a 1:5 mixture of α:β regioisomers by flash chromatography eluting with a gradient of hexane to CHCl, then CHCl to 1:20 EtO / CHCl. ​​The desired regioisomer could be obtained in 95+% purity by further flash chromatography eluting with a gradient of hexane to CHCl, then CHCl to 1:20 EtO / CHCl.

[0107] A similar procedure is carried out using Me3SnH instead of n-Bu3SnH to prepare the corresponding trimethylvinylstannane compound.

[0108] Step 17: Compound 20 and compound 14 are combined to form compound A by Stille coupling.

[0109] Exemplary procedure: Compound 20 (1.33 g, 2.57 mmol) and compound 14 (1.00 g, 2.14 mmol) were mixed in a 100 mL flask and dried by rotary evaporation of benzene. To the mixture were then added CuCl (0.425 g, 4.29 mmol), KF (0.249 g, 4.29 mmol), XPhos Pd G2 (0.169 g, 0.214 mmol), and anhydrous t-BuOH (25 mL), sequentially. The reaction vessel was purged under Ar, heated to 50 °C, and stirred overnight. Upon cessation of stirring, the solution turned into a gray, cloudy mixture. The mixture was then filtered through a plug of Celite and eluted with acetone (200 mL). The eluate was concentrated on a rotary evaporator to give a brown crude wax. Flash chromatography on neutral silica gel eluting with a gradient of hexane to 1:3 acetone / hexane gave pure compound A (1.21 g, 80%) as a pale yellow wax.

[0110] Compound A is prepared by carrying out a similar procedure using the corresponding trimethylvinylstannane compound in place of compound 20.

[0111] Example 3: Synthesis of intermediates and compound B, similar to the synthesis shown in Figure 2 for compound A Compound 19R and compound 20R are prepared as described in Example 2.

[0112] Step 18: Compound 20R is combined with compound 14 to form compound B by Stille coupling.

[0113] Exemplary procedure: Compound 20R (1.33 g, 2.57 mmol) and compound 14 (1.00 g, 2.14 mmol) are mixed in a 100 mL flask and dried by rotary evaporation of benzene. CuCl (0.425 g, 4.29 mmol), KF (0.249 g, 4.29 mmol), XPhos Pd G2 (0.169 g, 0.214 mmol), and anhydrous t-BuOH (25 mL) are then added sequentially to the mixture. The reaction vessel is purged under Ar, heated to 50 °C, and stirred overnight, at which point the solution turns into a gray, cloudy mixture. The mixture is then filtered through a plug of Celite and eluted with acetone (200 mL). The eluate is concentrated on a rotary evaporator to give a crude concentrate. Flash chromatography on neutral silica gel eluting with a gradient of hexane to 1:3 acetone / hexane gives pure compound B (1.21 g, 80%).

[0114] Compound B is prepared by carrying out a similar procedure using the corresponding trimethylvinylstannane compound in place of compound 20R.
