Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] [CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 951,464, filed December 20, 2019, and U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 951,467, filed December 20, 2019.

[0002] The present invention provides compounds that degrade epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), including mutant forms, by ubiquitination of the EGFR protein and subsequent proteasomal degradation, and are useful in the treatment of various cancers. [Background technology]

[0003] HER family receptor tyrosine kinases are mediators of cell growth, differentiation, and survival. This receptor family includes four distinct members: epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR, ErbB1 or HER1), HER2 (ErbB2), HER3 (ErbB3), and HER4 (ErbB4). Upon ligand binding, the receptors form homodimers and heterodimers, and the subsequent activation of intrinsic tyrosine kinase activity leads to receptor autophosphorylation and activation of downstream signaling molecules (Non-Patent Document 1). These signaling molecules promote cell growth and proliferation. Deregulation of EGFR by overexpression or mutation has been implicated in many types of human cancer, including colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, glioma, head and neck cancer, and lung cancer, particularly non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Several EGFR-targeting agents have been developed over the years (Non-Patent Document 2). Erlotinib (Tarceva™), a reversible inhibitor of EGFR tyrosine kinase, is approved in many countries for the treatment of recurrent NSCLC.

[0004] Although excellent single-agent activity of EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors is observed in a subset of NSCLC patients whose tumors harbor somatic kinase domain mutations, clinical benefit is significantly reduced in patients with wild-type EGFR (Non-Patent Document 3). The most common somatic mutations in EGFR are exon 19 deletions, with Δ746-750 being the most common mutation, and exon 21 amino acid substitutions, with L858R being the most frequent mutation (Non-Patent Document 4).

[0005] Treatment resistance frequently occurs and is often due to a secondary T790M mutation in the ATP site of the receptor. Although several mutant-selective irreversible inhibitors have been developed that show high activity against T790M mutants, their efficacy can be compromised by an acquired mutation at C797S, a cysteine ​​residue that forms a critical covalent bond (Non-Patent Document 5). Wang further reported that the C797S mutation is a major mechanism of resistance to EGFR inhibitors that target T790M (Non-Patent Document 6). Additional mutations, such as L718Q, that cause resistance to osimertinib have been described by Yang (Non-Patent Document 7). Strategies targeting additional mutations, including targeting EGFRL858R / T790M and EGFRL858R / T790M / C797S resistance mutations in the treatment of NSCLC, are also known (Non-Patent Document 8).

[0006] Additional examples of EGFR inhibitors, particularly selective inhibitors of EGFR mutants with T790M, have also been described, including those described in Patent Documents 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 2

[0007] Because most available EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors target the ATP site of the kinase, new therapeutic agents that work differently are needed, for example, by targeting drug-resistant EGFR mutants.

[0008] Recent studies have suggested that mutant-selective inhibitors may be obtained by intentionally targeting allosteric sites (Non-Patent Document 10).

[0009] The field of small molecule-promoted targeted protein degradation has been intensively researched (Non-Patent Document 11). Protein degradation plays a role in various cellular functions. For example, the body uses proteolysis to regulate the concentration of regulatory proteins through degradation into small peptides and to maintain cellular health and proliferation rates.

[0010] Cereblon is a protein that forms an E3 ubiquitin ligase complex that ubiquitinates various other proteins. Cereblon is known as the primary target of anticancer thalidomide analogs. Increased expression of cereblon has been associated with the efficacy of thalidomide analogs in cancer therapy.

[0011] Compounds have been described as useful modulators of targeted ubiquitination, for example, the compounds described in U.S. Patent Nos. 5,629,999, 5,729,965, 5,730,975, 5,829,985, 5,929,995, and 5,929,995 can be used for targeted ubiquitination. Additional modulators of targeted ubiquitination include those described by Ranok Therapeutics Hangzhou in U.S. Patent No. 5,617,239 and U.S. Patent No. 5,617,239; by Arvinas in U.S. Patent No. 5,617,239; by Dana-Farber Cancer Institute in U.S. Patent No. 5,617,239; by Kymera in U.S. Patent No. 5,617,239; by Kymera in U.S. Patent No. 5,617,239; by C4 Therapeutics Inc. in U.S. Patent No. 5,617,239; by Kymera ...

[0012] Several specific molecules for the degradation of EGFR have also been described, for example, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute describes EGFR degrading agents in U.S. Patent No. 4,629,999. F. Hoffman-La-Roche describes EGFR degrading agents in U.S. Patent No. 4,629,999 and U.S. Patent No. 4,629,999. Arvinas describes EGFR degrading agents in U.S. Patent No. 4,629,999.

[0410] The linkers described herein can be used in either orientation, i.e., the left end is linked to an E3 ligase binding moiety and the right end is linked to an EGFR-targeted ligand, or the left end is linked to an EGFR-targeted ligand and the right end is linked to an E3 ligase binding moiety.

[0411] In certain embodiments, the linker is a bond.

[0412] In certain embodiments, the linker has a chain of 2 to 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, or 20 or more carbon atoms, in which one or more carbons may be replaced by a heteroatom such as O, N, S, or P.

[0555] In certain embodiments, the additional therapy is a monoclonal antibody (MAb). Some MAbs stimulate an immune response that destroys cancer cells. Similar to antibodies naturally produced by B cells, these MAbs can "coat" the surface of cancer cells and induce their destruction by the immune system. For example, bevacizumab targets vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a protein secreted by tumor cells and other cells in the tumor microenvironment that promotes the development of tumor blood vessels. When VEGF binds to bevacizumab, it cannot interact with its cell receptor, preventing signaling that leads to the growth of new blood vessels. MAbs that bind to cell surface growth factor receptors prevent the target receptor from sending normal growth-promoting signals. They can also induce apoptosis and activate the immune system to destroy tumor cells.

[0576] A pharmaceutically or therapeutically effective amount of the composition is delivered to the patient. The precise effective amount will vary from patient to patient and will depend on the species, age, size, and health of the subject, the nature and extent of the condition being treated, the recommendations of the treating physician, and the therapeutic agent or combination of therapeutic agents selected for administration. Effective amounts for a given situation can be determined by routine experimentation. For purposes of this disclosure, a therapeutic amount may be, for example, in the range of about 0.01 mg / kg to about 250 mg / kg of body weight in at least one administration, more typically about 0.1 mg / kg to about 10 mg / kg. A subject may receive as many doses as needed to reduce and / or alleviate the signs, symptoms, or causes of the disorder in question, or to effect any other desired change in a biological system. Where appropriate, formulations can be prepared with enteric coatings suitable for sustained- or controlled-release administration of the active ingredient.

[0578] The pharmaceutical preparation is preferably in unit dosage form. In such dosage form, the preparation is subdivided into unit doses containing appropriate amounts of the active ingredient. The unit dosage form may be a packaged preparation in which the package contains discrete quantities of the preparation, such as packaged tablets, capsules, and powders in vials or ampoules. The unit dosage form may also be a capsule, tablet, cachet, or lozenge itself, or the appropriate number of any of these in packaged form.

[0579] In certain embodiments, the compound is administered as a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. Non-limiting examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts include acetate, adipate, alginate, ascorbate, aspartate, benzenesulfonate, benzoate, bisulfate, borate, butyrate, camphorate, camphorsulfonate, citrate, cyclopentanepropionate, digluconate, dodecyl sulfate, ethanesulfonate, fumarate, glucoheptonate, glycerophosphate, hemisulfate, heptonate, hexanoate, hydrobromide, hydrochloride, hydroiodide, 2-hydroxy-ethanesulfonate, and the like. Representative alkali or alkaline earth metal salts include sodium, lithium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium, as well as non-toxic ammonium, quaternary ammonium, and amine cations, including, but not limited to, sodium, lithium, potassium, calcium, and magnesium, as well as ammonium, tetramethylammonium, tetraethylammonium, methylamine, dimethylamine, trimethylamine, triethylamine, and ethylamine.

[0580] As such, the compositions of the present disclosure may be administered as pharmaceutical formulations, including those suitable for oral (including buccal and sublingual), rectal, nasal, topical, transdermal, pulmonary, intravaginal, or parenteral (including intramuscular, intraarterial, intrathecal, subcutaneous, and intravenous) administration, injection, inhalation, or spray, intra-aortic, intracranial, subdermal, intraperitoneal, subcutaneous administration, or by other means of administration with conventional pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. Typical methods of administration are oral, topical, or intravenous administration, using a convenient daily dosing regimen that can be adjusted according to the degree of affliction.

[0581] Depending on the intended method of administration, the pharmaceutical composition may be in the form of a solid, semi-solid or liquid dosage form, such as a tablet, suppository, pill, capsule, powder, liquid, syrup, suspension, cream, ointment, lotion, paste, gel, spray, aerosol, foam or oil, injectable or infusible solution, transdermal patch, subcutaneous patch, inhalation formulation, medical device, suppository, buccal or sublingual formulation, parenteral formulation, or eye drops, preferably in a unit dosage form suitable for single administration of a precise dosage amount.

[0582] Some dosage forms, such as tablets and capsules, are subdivided into suitably sized unit doses containing an appropriate amount of the active ingredient, e.g., an amount effective to achieve a desired purpose. The composition contains an effective amount of the selected drug in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and may further include other medicinal agents, adjuvants, diluents, buffers, etc.

[0583] Carriers, including additives and diluents, must be of sufficiently high purity and sufficiently low toxicity to render them suitable for administration to the patient being treated. Carriers may be inert or may themselves possess medicinal properties. The amount of carrier used in combination with the compound is sufficient to provide a quantity of material useful for administration per unit dose of the compound.

[0584] Classes of carriers include, but are not limited to, adjuvants, binders, buffers, colorants, diluents, disintegrants, additives, emulsifiers, flavorings, gels, glidants, lubricants, preservatives, stabilizers, surfactants, solubilizers, tabletting agents, wetting agents or solidifying agents.

[0585] Some carriers may fall into more than one class; for example, vegetable oils may be used as lubricants in some formulations and as diluents in others.

[0586] Exemplary pharmaceutically acceptable carriers include sugars, starches, cellulose, powdered tragacanth, malt, gelatin, talc, petrolatum, lanolin, polyethylene glycols, alcohols, transdermal enhancers, and vegetable oils. Any active agent that does not substantially interfere with the activity of the compound of the present invention may be included in the pharmaceutical composition.

[0587] Some excipients include, but are not limited to, liquids such as water, saline, glycerol, polyethylene glycol, hyaluronic acid, ethanol, etc. The compound can be provided in the form of a solid, liquid, spray-dried product, microparticles, nanoparticles, controlled release systems, etc., as desired, for example, depending on the purpose of therapy. Suitable excipients for non-liquid formulations are also known to those skilled in the art. A thorough discussion of pharmaceutically acceptable excipients and salts can be found in Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, 18th Edition (Easton, Pennsylvania: Mack Publishing Company, 1990).

[0588] Additionally, auxiliary substances, such as wetting or emulsifying agents, physiological buffer substances, surfactants, etc., may be present in such vehicles. The physiological buffer may be any solution that is pharmacologically acceptable and provides the formulation with a desired pH, i.e., a pH within the physiologically acceptable range. Examples of buffer solutions include physiological saline, phosphate-buffered saline, Tris-buffered saline, Hank's buffered saline, etc.

[0589] For solid compositions, conventional non-toxic solid carriers include, for example, pharmaceutical grades of mannitol, lactose, starch, magnesium stearate, sodium saccharin, talc, cellulose, glucose, sucrose, magnesium carbonate, and the like. Liquid pharmaceutically administrable compositions can be prepared, for example, by dissolving or dispersing an active compound described herein and any pharmaceutical adjuvants in an excipient, such as water, saline, aqueous dextrose, glycerol, ethanol, or the like, thereby forming a solution or suspension. If desired, the pharmaceutical composition to be administered may also contain minor amounts of non-toxic auxiliary substances such as wetting or emulsifying agents, pH buffering agents, and the like, for example, sodium acetate, sorbitan monolaurate, triethanolamine sodium acetate, triethanolamine oleate, and the like. Actual methods for preparing such dosage forms are known or will be apparent to those skilled in the art; see, for example, Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, supra.

[0590] In yet another embodiment, there is provided the use of penetration-enhancing additives including polymers such as polycations (chitosan and its quaternary ammonium derivatives, poly-L-arginine, aminated gelatin), polyanions (N-carboxymethylchitosan, polyacrylic acid), and thiolated polymers (carboxymethylcellulose-cysteine, polycarbophil-cysteine, chitosan-thiobutylamidine, chitosan-thioglycolic acid, chitosan-glutathione conjugates).

[0591] In certain embodiments, the excipient is selected from butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate (dibasic), calcium stearate, croscarmellose, cross-linked polyvinylpyrrolidone, citric acid, crospovidone, cysteine, ethylcellulose, gelatin, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, lactose, magnesium stearate, maltitol, mannitol, methionine, methylcellulose, methylparaben, microcrystalline cellulose, polyethylene glycol, polyvinylpyrrolidone, povidone, pregelatinized starch, propylparaben, retinyl palmitate, shellac, silicon dioxide, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, sodium citrate, sodium starch glycolate, sorbitol, starch (corn), stearic acid, sucrose, talc, titanium dioxide, vitamin A, vitamin E, vitamin C, and xylitol.

[0592] The pharmaceutical composition / combination can be formulated for oral administration. For oral administration, the composition generally takes the form of a tablet, capsule, softgel capsule, or may be an aqueous or non-aqueous solution, suspension, or syrup. Tablets and capsules are typical oral dosage forms. Oral tablets and capsules can contain one or more commonly used carriers, such as lactose and corn starch. Lubricants, such as magnesium stearate, are also commonly added. Typically, the compositions of the present disclosure can be combined with non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable inert carriers for oral use, such as lactose, starch, sucrose, glucose, methylcellulose, magnesium stearate, dicalcium phosphate, calcium sulfate, mannitol, sorbitol, etc. Furthermore, suitable binders, lubricants, disintegrating agents, and coloring agents may be incorporated into the mixture, if desired or necessary. Suitable binders include starch, gelatin, natural sugars such as glucose or β-lactose, corn syrup, natural and synthetic gums such as gum arabic and gum tragacanth, or sodium alginate, carboxymethylcellulose, polyethylene glycol, waxes, etc. Lubricants used in these dosage forms include sodium oleate, sodium stearate, magnesium stearate, sodium benzoate, sodium acetate, sodium chloride, etc. Disintegrants include, but are not limited to, starch, methylcellulose, agar, bentonite, xanthan gum, etc.

[0593] When a liquid suspension is used, the active agent can be combined with any oral, non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable inert carrier, such as ethanol, glycerol, water, etc., as well as emulsifying and suspending agents. Flavoring agents, coloring agents, and / or sweetening agents may be added as needed. Other optional ingredients incorporated into the oral formulations herein include, but are not limited to, preservatives, suspending agents, thickening agents, etc.

[0594] For intraocular delivery, the compounds can be administered, for example, by intravitreal, intrastromal, intracameral, subtenon, subretinal, retrobulbar, peribulbar, suprachoroidal, conjunctival, subconjunctival, episcleral, periocular, transscleral, retrobulbar, posterior juxtascleral, periconeal, or lacrimal injection, or in an immediate or controlled release manner via a mucus, mucin, or mucosal barrier, or by an intraocular device, as desired.

[0595] Parenteral preparations can be prepared in conventional forms, such as liquid solutions or suspensions, solid forms suitable for solubilization or suspension in liquid prior to injection, or emulsions. Typically, sterile injectable suspensions are formulated according to techniques known in the art using suitable carriers, dispersing or wetting agents, and suspending agents. Sterile injectable preparations can also be sterile injectable solutions or suspensions in parenterally acceptable diluents or solvents that are non-toxic to an acceptable extent. Acceptable vehicles and solvents that can be used include water, Ringer's solution, and isotonic sodium chloride solution. In addition, sterile fixed oils, fatty acid esters, or polyols are conventionally used as solvents or suspending media. In addition, parenteral administration can involve the use of sustained-release or sustained-release systems to maintain a constant level of dosage.

[0596] Parenteral administration includes intraarticular, intravenous, intramuscular, intradermal, intraperitoneal, and subcutaneous routes, and includes aqueous and non-aqueous isotonic sterile injection solutions that may contain antioxidants, buffers, bacteriostats, and solutes that render the formulation isotonic with the blood of the intended recipient, as well as aqueous and non-aqueous sterile suspensions that may contain suspending agents, solubilizers, thickeners, stabilizers, and preservatives. Administration via certain parenteral routes may involve introducing a formulation of the present disclosure into a patient's body through a needle or catheter propelled by a sterile syringe or some other mechanical device, such as a continuous infusion system. The formulations provided by the present disclosure can be administered using a syringe, infuser, pump, or any other device recognized in the art for parenteral administration.

[0597] Preparations according to the present disclosure for parenteral administration include aqueous or non-aqueous sterile solutions, suspensions, or emulsions. Examples of non-aqueous solvents or vehicles are propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, vegetable oils such as olive oil and corn oil, gelatin, and injectable organic esters such as ethyl oleate. Such dosage forms may contain adjuvants such as preservatives, wetting agents, emulsifying agents, and dispersing agents. They can be sterilized, for example, by filtration through a bacteria-retaining filter, incorporating a sterilizing agent into the composition, irradiating the composition, or heating the composition. They can also be prepared using sterile water or some other sterile injectable medium immediately before use.

[0598] Sterile injectable solutions are prepared by incorporating the required amount of one or more compounds of the present disclosure into a suitable solvent, optionally containing various other ingredients as listed above, followed by filtration and sterilization. Generally, dispersions are prepared by incorporating various sterilized active ingredients into a sterile vehicle containing a basic dispersion medium and other required ingredients from those listed above. For sterile powders for preparing sterile injectable solutions, typical preparation methods are vacuum drying and freeze-drying, which produce a powder of the active ingredient and any additional desired ingredients from a previously sterile-filtered solution. Thus, for example, a parenteral composition suitable for administration by injection is prepared by stirring 1.5% by weight of the active ingredient in 10% by volume of propylene glycol and water. The solution is made isotonic with sodium chloride and sterilized.

[0599] Alternatively, the pharmaceutical compositions of the present disclosure can be administered in the form of suppositories for rectal administration. These can be prepared by mixing the active ingredient with a suitable non-irritating excipient that is solid at room temperature but liquid at rectal temperature, and therefore melts in the rectum to release the drug. Such materials include cocoa butter, beeswax, and polyethylene glycol.

[0600] The pharmaceutical compositions of the present disclosure may also be administered by nasal aerosol or inhalation. Such compositions are prepared according to techniques known in the art of pharmaceutical formulation and may be prepared as a solution in saline using benzyl alcohol or other suitable preservatives, absorption enhancers to enhance bioavailability, propellants such as fluorocarbons or nitrogen, and / or other conventional solubilizing or dispersing agents.

[0601] Formulations for buccal administration include tablets, lozenges, gels, and the like. Alternatively, buccal administration can be achieved using transmucosal delivery systems known to those skilled in the art. The compounds of the present disclosure can also be delivered through the skin or mucosal tissue using conventional transdermal drug delivery systems, i.e., transdermal "patches," in which the active ingredient is typically contained within a laminated structure that serves as a drug delivery device attached to a body surface. In such structures, the drug composition is typically contained in a layer, or "reservoir," beneath an upper backing layer. The laminated device may contain a single reservoir or multiple reservoirs. In certain embodiments, the reservoir comprises a polymeric matrix of a pharmaceutically acceptable contact adhesive material that serves to attach the system to the skin during drug delivery. Examples of suitable skin contact adhesive materials include, but are not limited to, polyethylene, polysiloxane, polyisobutylene, polyacrylate, polyurethane, and the like.

[0602] Alternatively, the drug-containing reservoir and skin contact adhesive may be present as separate, distinct layers, with the adhesive underneath the reservoir, which may be a polymer matrix as described above, or a liquid or gel reservoir, or some other form. The backing layer in these laminates, which forms the top surface of the device, serves as the primary structural element of the laminate structure and provides the device with much of its flexibility. The material selected for the backing layer should be substantially impermeable to the active agent and any other materials present.

[0603] The compositions of the present disclosure can be formulated for aerosol administration, including intranasal administration, particularly to the respiratory tract. The compound can, for example, generally have a small particle size, for example, about 5 microns or less. Such particle size can be obtained by means known in the art, for example, by micronization. The active ingredient is provided in a pressurized pack with a suitable propellant, such as a chlorofluorocarbon (CFC), for example, dichlorodifluoromethane, trichlorofluoromethane, or dichlorotetrafluoroethane, carbon dioxide, or other suitable gas. The aerosol can conveniently also contain a surfactant, such as lecithin. The dose of drug can be controlled by a metered valve.

[0604] Alternatively, the active ingredient can be provided in the form of a dry powder, for example, a powder mixture of the compound in a suitable powder base, such as lactose, starch, starch derivatives, for example, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose and polyvinylpyrrolidine (PVP). The powder carrier will form a gel in the nasal cavity. For example, the powder composition can be presented in unit dose form in, for example, gelatin capsules or cartridges, or blister packs from which the powder can be administered by inhaler.

[0605] Formulations suitable for rectal administration are typically presented as unit-dose suppositories, which may be prepared by admixing the active compound with one or more conventional solid carriers, for example, cocoa butter, and then shaping the resulting mixture.

[0606] In certain embodiments, the pharmaceutical composition is suitable for topical application to the skin using the administration methods defined above.

[0607] In certain embodiments, pharmaceutical compositions are suitable for transdermal administration and can be presented as discrete patches adapted to remain in intimate contact with the epidermis of the recipient for a prolonged period of time. Formulations suitable for transdermal administration can also be delivered by iontophoresis (see, e.g., Pharmaceutical Research 3 (6):318 (1986)) and typically take the form of an optionally buffered aqueous solution of the active compound.

[0608] In certain embodiments, microneedle patches or devices are provided for the delivery of drugs across or into biological tissue, particularly the skin, which allow for drug delivery across or into the skin or other tissue barriers at clinically relevant rates with little or no damage, pain, or irritation to the tissue.

[0609] Formulations suitable for pulmonary administration can be delivered by a wide range of passively and actively powered single / multiple dose dry powder inhalers (DPIs). The most commonly used devices for respiratory delivery include nebulizers, metered dose inhalers, and dry powder inhalers. Several types of nebulizers are available, including jet nebulizers, ultrasonic nebulizers, and vibrating mesh nebulizers. The selection of a suitable pulmonary delivery device depends on parameters such as the properties of the drug and its formulation, the site of action, and the pathophysiology of the lungs.

[0610] In certain embodiments, an oral formulation is provided.

[0637] IX. Synthesis method Compounds of Formula I, II, III, or IV may contain one or more asymmetric centers and may occur as racemates, racemic mixtures, single enantiomers, diastereomeric mixtures, and individual diastereomers. Additional asymmetric centers may exist depending on the nature of the various substituents on the molecule. Each such asymmetric center independently gives rise to two optical isomers, and all possible optical isomers and diastereomers, in mixtures and as pure or partially purified compounds, are intended to be included in the present invention. The present invention is intended to encompass all such isomeric forms of these compounds. The independent syntheses of these diastereomers or their chromatographic separations can be achieved as known in the art by appropriate modification of the methodology disclosed herein. Their absolute stereochemistry can be determined by x-ray crystallography of crystalline products or crystalline intermediates that are derivatized, if necessary, with a reagent containing an asymmetric center of known absolute configuration. If desired, racemic mixtures of the compounds can be separated and the individual enantiomers isolated. Resolution can be achieved by methods known in the art, for example, by coupling a racemic mixture of a compound to an enantiomerically pure compound to form a diastereomeric mixture, followed by separation of the individual diastereomers by standard methods such as fractional crystallization or chromatography.

[0638] In embodiments in which optically pure enantiomers are provided, optically pure enantiomer means that the compound contains greater than 90% by weight of the desired isomer, particularly greater than 95% by weight or more particularly greater than 99% by weight of the desired isomer, where the weight percentage is based on the total weight of the isomer(s) of the compound. Chirally pure or chirally enriched compounds can be prepared by chirally selective synthesis or by separation of enantiomers. Separation of enantiomers can be carried out on the final product or, alternatively, on a suitable intermediate.

[0639] The preparation of compounds of formula I is further illustrated in more detail in the following schemes. [ka]

[0640] Generally, the order of steps used in the synthesis of compounds of formula I may also be varied in certain cases.

[0641] The preparation of compounds of formula II is further illustrated in more detail in the following scheme. [ka] TIFF0007757284000423.tif84170

[0642] In general, the order of steps used in the synthesis of compounds of formula I may also be modified in certain cases, and in certain cases the order of steps shown for formula I or formula II may be applied to or modified for the synthesis of compounds of formula III and formula IV.

[0643] Compound isolation and purification Isolation and purification of the compounds and intermediates described herein can be achieved, if desired, by any suitable separation or purification procedure, such as filtration, extraction, crystallization, column chromatography, thin-layer chromatography, thick-layer chromatography, preparative low-pressure or high-performance liquid chromatography, or a combination of these procedures. Specific illustrations of suitable separation and isolation procedures can be found in the preparations and examples herein below. However, it should be understood that other equivalent separation or isolation procedures may also be used. Racemic mixtures of chiral compounds of Formula I, II, III, or IV can be separated using chiral HPLC. Racemic mixtures of chiral synthetic intermediates can also be separated using chiral HPLC.

[0644] Salts of compounds of formula I, II, III or IV If the compound of Formula I, II, III, or IV is basic, it can be converted to the corresponding acid addition salt. This conversion is accomplished by treatment with at least a stoichiometric amount of an appropriate acid, such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulfuric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, or an organic acid, such as acetic acid, propionic acid, glycolic acid, pyruvic acid, oxalic acid, malic acid, malonic acid, succinic acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, benzoic acid, cinnamic acid, mandelic acid, methanesulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, p-toluenesulfonic acid, salicylic acid, or the like. A specific salt is the fumarate salt. Typically, the free base is dissolved in an inert organic solvent such as diethyl ether, ethyl acetate, chloroform, ethanol, or methanol, and the acid in a similar solvent is added. The temperature is maintained between 0°C and 50°C. The resulting salt precipitates spontaneously or can be brought out of solution with a less polar solvent.

[0645] Compounds of Formula I, II, III, or IV and all intermediates, unless their preparation is described in the examples, can be prepared by analogous methods or according to the methods described herein. Starting materials are commercially available, known in the art, or can be prepared by or analogous to methods known in the art.

[0646] It will be appreciated that the compounds of general formula I, II, III or IV in this invention may be derivatized at functional groups to provide derivatives which are capable of conversion back to the parent compound in vivo.
