[0002] This disclosure relates to novel processes and intermediates for preparing compounds useful as stimulators of soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC). These processes produce stable 3-(2-pyrimidinyl)pyrazoles of Formula I in high purity and yield. These processes have the additional advantage of including facile reaction conditions that are amenable to scale-up for large-scale production.

[0003] [ka] [Background technology]

[0004]

[0003] sGC is the primary receptor for NO in vivo. sGC can be activated through NO-dependent and NO-independent mechanisms. In response to this activation, sGC converts guanosine-5'-triphosphate (GTP) into the second messenger cGMP. Elevated cGMP levels, in turn, regulate the activity of downstream effectors, including protein kinases, phosphodiesterases (PDEs), and ion channels.

[0005]

[0004] In the body, NO is synthesized from arginine and oxygen by various nitric oxide synthase (NOS) enzymes and by the sequential reduction of inorganic nitrate. Experimental and clinical evidence indicates that decreased NO concentrations, reduced NO bioavailability, and / or reduced responsiveness to endogenously produced NO contribute to the development of disease.

[0006]

[0005] sGC stimulators are NO-independent, heme-dependent modulators of the sGC enzyme, and exhibit strong enzyme activation synergistically with NO, which is clearly distinguishable from NO-independent, heme-independent sGC activators. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0007]

[0006] There is a need to develop novel sGC stimulators, as compounds that stimulate sGC in an NO-independent manner would have significant advantages over other current alternative therapies that target the aberrant NO pathway. There is a need for efficient, scalable processes for synthesizing these novel sGC stimulators. Consequently, there is also a need to develop efficient, scalable processes for synthesizing these novel sGC stimulators. There is a need for efficient, scalable processes that provide stable sGC stimulators with high purity and yield. [Means for solving the problem]

[0617] Reference will now be made in detail to certain embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying structures and formulas. While the invention will be described in conjunction with the enumerated embodiments, it will be understood that they are not intended to limit the invention to those embodiments. Rather, the invention is intended to encompass alternatives, modifications, and equivalents, which may be included within the scope of the invention as defined by the claims. The invention is not limited to the methods and materials described herein, but includes all methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein that could be used in the practice of the invention. In the event that one or more of the incorporated references, patents, or similar materials differs from or conflicts with this application, including, but not limited to, defined terms, term usage, described techniques, etc., this application controls. Definitions and General Terms For purposes of this disclosure, chemical elements are identified according to the Periodic Table of the Elements, CAS version, and the Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 75th Edition, 1994. Additionally, general principles of organic chemistry are described in "Organic Chemistry," Thomas Sorrell, University Science Books, Sausalito: 1999, and "March's Advanced Organic Chemistry," 5th Edition, Smith, M.B. and March, J., eds., John Wiley & Sons, New York: 2001, which are incorporated herein by reference in their entireties.

[0618] The term "ring atom" refers to an atom such as C, N, O, or S that is part of a ring (a ring including, for example, an alicyclic ring (e.g., a cycloalkyl ring)), a heterocyclic ring, an aryl ring (e.g., a phenyl ring), or a heteroaryl ring).

[0619] A "substitutable ring atom" is a ring carbon or nitrogen atom that is bonded to at least one hydrogen atom. The hydrogen can be optionally replaced with a suitable substituent. A "substitutable ring atom" does not include ring carbon or nitrogen atoms where the structure is such that they are already attached to one or more moieties or substituents other than hydrogen and the hydrogen is not available for substitution. It will be understood that when a particular ring is optionally substituted, it may be substituted on one, some, or all of the substitutable ring atoms, depending on the number of possible substituents.

[0620]

[0094] In general, the term "substituted" refers to the replacement of one or more hydrogen radicals of a given structure with another specified radical substituent that is different from hydrogen (some non-limiting examples would be hydroxy, phenyl, or alkyl groups). When a structure or moiety is "optionally substituted," it can be substituted or unsubstituted.

[0621]

[0095] When one or more positions of a structure can be substituted with one or more substituents selected from a particular group or list, the substituent(s) at each position may be "independently selected" to be equal or the same at each position and for each instance, unless otherwise specified. For example, when phenyl is R 100 is replaced by two instances of 100 is independently selected from halogen and methyl, this corresponds to R 100 means that each instance of is independently selected from halogen or methyl; for example, one R 100one may be fluoro and the other methyl, or both may be chloro, etc. Similarly, when a substitutable atom is bonded to more than one hydrogen (e.g., CH3 or NH2), the substituents may be "independently selected" to be equal or the same at each position and for each instance, unless otherwise specified. For example, if methyl (e.g., CH3) is bonded to R 100 It is replaced by two instances of 100 is independently selected from halogen and methyl, this corresponds to R 100 means that each instance of is independently selected from halogen or methyl; for example, one R 100 One may be fluoro and the other methyl (e.g., CHF(CH3)), or both may be chloro (e.g., CHCl2), etc.

[0622]

[0096] Selections and combinations of substituents envisioned by this disclosure are only those that result in the formation of stable or chemically feasible compounds. Such selections and combinations will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art and can be determined without undue experimentation. The term "stable," as used herein, refers to a compound that remains substantially unchanged when subjected to conditions to enable its production, detection, and, in some embodiments, its recovery, purification, and use for one or more of the purposes disclosed herein. A chemically feasible compound is one that can be prepared by one of ordinary skill in the art based on the disclosure herein, supplemented as necessary by relevant knowledge in the art.

[0623] The phrase "up to," as used herein, refers to zero and any integer up to and including the number following the phrase. For example, "up to 3" means any one of 0, 1, 2, or 3. As described herein, a specified number range of atoms or substituents includes every integer therein. For example, a group having 1 to 4 atoms can have 1, 2, 3, or 4 atoms. When any variable occurs more than one time, in any position, its definition for each occurrence is independent of all other occurrences. When a group is substituted with 0 instances of a particular variable, this means that the group is unsubstituted.

[0624] Unless only one of the isomers is specifically depicted or named, structures depicted herein are also meant to include all stereoisomeric (e.g., enantiomeric, diastereomeric, atropoisomeric, and cis-trans isomeric) forms of the structure: for example, R and S configurations at each asymmetric center, Ra and Sa configurations at each asymmetric axis, (Z) and (E) double bond configurations, and cis and trans isomers. Thus, single stereochemical isomers and racemates, as well as enantiomeric forms of the present compounds, are intended to be included. Mixtures of omers, diastereomers, and cis-trans isomers are within the scope of this disclosure. Unless otherwise specified, all tautomers of the compounds of this disclosure are also within the scope of the invention.

[0625] In one embodiment, the present disclosure provides a method for converting hydrogen to deuterium (i.e., 2 H), which may confer certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability (e.g., increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements) and therefore may be preferred in some circumstances. Deuterium-labeled compounds of the present invention can be prepared by procedures similar to those disclosed in the following schemes and / or examples herein below, generally by replacing deuterated reagents with non-deuterated reagents.

[0126] As used herein, the term "solvent" refers to a solvent that provides the desired properties of a solvent mixture. The term "protic organic solvent" refers to a separate solvent or a mixture of solvents that results in a reaction. For example, the aprotic organic solvent may be toluene, or a mixture of toluene and another aprotic solvent, such as DMF. Thus, as used herein, the term "protic organic solvent" may also encompass a toluene / DMF mixture. As another example, the protic solvent may encompass water or a mixture of water and methanol.

[0648] As used herein, a "protic solvent" refers to a solvent containing a polar group, e.g., oxygen ( A protic solvent is a solvent that has a hydrogen atom attached to either a nitrogen (such as a hydroxyl group) or a nitrogen (such as an amine group). Generally speaking, any solvent that contains labile H+ is called a protic solvent. Such solvent molecules readily donate protons (H+) to reagents. Conversely, "aprotic solvents" cannot readily donate hydrogen. Aprotic solvents are usually classified as either polar aprotic or nonpolar (or nonpolar) aprotic, depending on their dielectric constant values. Protic solvents are usually polar protic solvents, with high dielectric constants and high polarity.

[0649] Some common properties of protic solvents are that they exhibit hydrogen bonding and bond acidic hydrogens ( Some liquids, such as ethanol, are very slightly acidic (although some are very slightly acidic), a property that allows them to dissolve salts. Examples include water, most alcohols, formic acid, hydrogen fluoride, nitromethane, acetic acid, and ammonia.

[0650] Some general properties of aprotic solvents are that they accept hydrogen bonds. These are the properties of a solvent that can dissolve salts, has no acidic hydrogen, and is capable of dissolving salts. These criteria are relative and highly qualitative. A range of acidities is recognized for aprotic solvents. Their ability to dissolve salts strongly depends on the nature of the salt.

[0651] Polar aprotic solvents are solvents that dissolve many salts. These solvents generally have intermediate dielectric constants and polarities. While the term "polar aprotic" is discouraged, IUPAC describes these solvents as having both a high dielectric constant and a high dipole moment; an example is acetonitrile. Other solvents that meet IUPAC's criteria include N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA), N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), hexamethylphosporamide (HMPA), tetrahydrofuran, ethyl acetate, acetone, acetonitrile (MeCN), and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Nonpolar or nonpolar aprotic solvents typically have low dielectric constants. Some examples of nonpolar aprotic solvents are hexane and other alkanes, benzene, toluene, 1,4-dioxane, chloroform, ethers such as diethyl ether, dichloromethane, dichloroethane, etc.

[0652]

[0131] The term "equivalent" as used herein refers to the amount of a reagent used. "Mole equivalents" refers to "molar equivalents" when discussing the term "reagent A." For example, 1 equivalent of reagent A for each equivalent of reagent B means that 1 mole of reagent A is used in a reaction for each mole of reagent B. A mole is defined as the number that results when the total weight of a substance used is divided by the molecular weight of said substance, with both weights in the same units (e.g., grams).
