Description
Detailed Description of the Invention
[0001] [Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a process for preparing novel Rho-associated protein kinase inhibitors and intermediates in the process.
[0002] [Background of the invention] Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) is a serine / threonine kinase from the AGC kinase family, and includes two isoforms, ROCK1 and ROCK2. ROCK1 and ROCK2 are differentially expressed and regulated in specific tissues. For example, ROCK1 is ubiquitously expressed at relatively high levels, whereas ROCK2 is preferentially expressed in the heart, brain, and skeletal muscle. ROCK was the first downstream effector of Rho proteins discovered, and its biological function is achieved by phosphorylating downstream effector proteins (e.g., MLC, Lin-11, Isl-1, LIMK, ERM, MARCKS, CRMP-2, etc.). Studies have shown that various diseases (e.g., pulmonary fibrosis, cardiovascular disease, neurological diseases, and cancer) are associated with ROCK-mediated pathways. Thus, ROCK is considered an important target for the development of novel drugs.

[0030] The term "stereoisomer" refers to an isomer having at least one asymmetric center. Compounds having one or more (e.g., 1, 2, 3, or 4) asymmetric centers can give rise to racemic mixtures, single enantiomers, diastereomeric mixtures, and individual diastereomers. Certain individual molecules can exist as geometric isomers (cis / trans). Similarly, compounds of the present invention can exist as mixtures of two or more structurally distinct forms in rapid equilibrium (commonly referred to as tautomers). Typical examples of tautomers include keto-enol tautomers, phenol-keto tautomers, nitroso-oxime tautomers, imine-enamine tautomers, and the like. It is understood that all such isomers and mixtures thereof, in any proportion (60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 96%, 97%, 98%, 99%, etc.), are encompassed within the scope of the present invention.
[0031] Chemical bonds in the compounds of the present invention are represented herein by solid lines ( [ka] ), solid wedge ( [ka] ), or a dotted wedge ( [ka] ) can be used to denote the bond to an asymmetric carbon atom. The use of a solid line to denote a bond to an asymmetric carbon atom is meant to indicate that all possible stereoisomers at that carbon atom (e.g., a specific enantiomer, a racemic mixture, etc.) are included. The use of either a solid line or a dotted wedge to denote a bond to an asymmetric carbon atom is meant to indicate that the depicted stereoisomer is present. When present in a racemic compound, the solid and dotted wedge are used to define relative stereochemistry rather than absolute stereochemistry. Unless otherwise specified, it is intended that the compounds of the present invention may exist as stereoisomers, including optical isomers such as cis and trans isomers, R and S enantiomers, diastereomers, geometric isomers, rotamers, conformational isomers, atropisomers, and mixtures thereof. The compounds of the present invention may exhibit more than one type of isomerism and may consist of mixtures thereof (e.g., racemates and diastereomeric pairs).
[0032] The present invention includes all possible crystalline forms or polymorphs of the compounds of the present invention, either as a single polymorph or as a mixture of two or more polymorphs in any ratio.
[0033] It should also be understood that certain compounds of the present invention do not include derivatives thereof, or can be used in the form of derivatives where appropriate.In the present invention, derivatives include, but are not limited to, salts and solvates.Therefore, the "compounds of the present invention" referred to herein also means to include various derivative forms of the compounds described above.
[0034] Salts of the compounds of the present invention include acid addition salts and base addition salts thereof.
[0035] Suitable acid addition salts are formed from acids which form pharmaceutically acceptable salts, such as acetate, adipate, aspartate, benzoate, besylate, bicarbonate / carbonate, bisulfate / sulfate, borate, camphorsulfonate, citrate, cyclamate, edisylate, esylate, formate, fumarate, gluceptate, gluconate, glucuronate, hexafluorophosphate, hybenzate, hydrochloride / chloride, hydrobromide / bromide, hydroiodide / iodide, isethionate, iodine ...

[0038] The compounds of the present invention can exist as solvates (preferably hydrates), which contain polar solvents, particularly water, methanol or ethanol, as structural elements of the crystalline lattice of the compounds. The amount of polar solvent, particularly water, can be present in a stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric ratio.

MS m / z(ESI):558.23[M+H] + 1H NMR(400 MHz,DMSO-d6):δ 9.10(s,1H),8.58(s,1H),8.43(d,J=5.4 Hz,1H),8.37(s,1H),8.22(dd,J=8.4 Hz,1.4 Hz,1H),7.96(s,1H),7.85(d,J=8.2 Hz,2H),7.76(d,J=8.4 Hz,1H),7.69(d,J=8.3 Hz,2H),7.09(s,1H),6.74(d,J=5.8 Hz,1H),5.58(q,J=6.04 Hz,1H),4.77(brs,4H),4.07(s,3H),3.53-3.44(m,1H),3.32-3.25(m,1H),1.67(d,J=6.04 Hz,3H),1.09(t,J=7.0 Hz,3H).
[0093] Step 10: Preparation of (6-(4-((4-(1H-pyrazol-4-yl)phenyl)amino)pyrimidin-2-yl)-1-methyl-1H-indol-2-yl)(3,3-difluoroazetidin-1-yl)methanone (A) A reaction flask was charged with ethanol (600 ml) and A-103 (60.0 g, 0.11 mol). Concentrated hydrochloric acid (33.6 g, 0.32 mol) was added dropwise at 20-30°C and stirred. After TLC showed that the starting material had completely reacted, triethylamine (43.4 g, 0.43 mol) was added to the reaction mixture and stirred for 1 hour. Water (600 ml) was added to the reaction mixture, which was cooled to 0-10°C, stirred for 1 hour, and filtered. The filter cake was rinsed with water (120 ml), collected, and dried under vacuum at 40-50°C to give 47.2 g of a yellow solid, yield: 90.3%. MS m / z(ESI):486.23[M+H] + 1H NMR(400 MHz,DMSO-d6):δ 11.12(s,1H),8.49(s,1H),8.41(d,J=6.9 Hz,1H),8.13(s,2H),7.97(d,J=8.4 Hz,1H),7.89(d,J=8.4 Hz,1H),7.76(m,4H),7.16(s,1H),6.96(d,J=7.2 Hz,1H),4.90(s,2H),4.56(s,2H),4.05(s,3H).
[0094] Comparative Example [ka] A-5 (1.5 g, 4.03 mmol), A-8 (1.67 g, 4.44 mmol), potassium carbonate (1.71 g, 12.3 mmol), DMF (10 ml), and water (2 ml) were added to a reaction flask, and the atmosphere was purged with nitrogen six times. Pd(dppf)Cl2 (30.3 mg, 41.2 μmol) was then added. After the addition, the reaction mixture was heated to 55 ± 5°C and stirred for 22 hours. The reaction mixture was subjected to HPLC analysis. The HPLC chromatogram is shown in Figure 2, and the retention time and peak area of the main peak are shown in the table below. [Table 3]
[0095] HPLC analysis showed that starting material A-5 underwent complete reaction, but the reaction products were very complex. Among them, target product A-111 (retention time: 10.104 min) accounted for only 25.66%, the deprotected product (A-4) of starting material A-5 (retention time: 9.936 min) accounted for 25.96%, starting material A-8 (retention time: 14.492 min) accounted for 16.48%, and compound A (retention time: 9.839 min) accounted for 0.25%.
