Description

[0001] PATENT ATTORNEY DOCKET NO.: 51246-070WO2 PROCESS AND COMPOUNDS FOR PREPARING CAMONSERTIB AND ITS SALTS BACKGROUND The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of (1R,3r,5S)-3-{6-[(3R)-3- methylmorpholin-4-yl]-1-(1H-pyrazol-3-yl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-4-yl}-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan- 3-ol (camonsertib), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which are useful pharmaceutically active compounds. The compound of formula (I), (1R,3r,5S)-3-{6-[(3R)-3-methylmorpholin-4-yl]-1-(1H-pyrazol-3- yl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridin-4-yl}-8-oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-ol, has shown activities as an ATR inhibitor as described in WO2020087170. A more efficient and scalable synthesis of camonsertib was developed. DNA damage occurs continually in cells as a result of environmental insults including ultraviolet radiation, X-rays, and endogenous stress factors, such as reactive oxygen and hydrolysis of bases. Cancer cells are subject to a higher rate of DNA damage inherently induced by higher rates of DNA replication in these cells. Several DNA damage response (DDR) pathways have evolved in a highly coordinated manner to help repair DNA damage and to act as a cellular checkpoint to stop the replication of cells with damaged DNA, allowing for repair functions to occur before the damaged DNA is passed on to daughter cells. Each of the identified DNA repair pathways sense and repair distinct but overlapping types of DNA damage. One major DDR protein that acts as a key cell cycle checkpoint is the ataxia telangiectasia mutated and rad3-related (ATR) kinase, related to the family of phosphoinositide 3-kinase-related protein kinases (PIKKs). ATR is activated by single stranded (ss) DNA lesions caused by stalled replication forks or during nucleotide excision repair but is also activated by double strand breaks following DNA end resection during homologous recombination. ATR has been identified as an important cancer target since it is essential for dividing cells. Cancer cells that have high levels of replication stress due to oncogenic mutations, dysfunctional G1 / S checkpoint control (e.g., loss of p53 function), defects in other DNA repair pathways (e.g., ATM) or that are subject to the effects of DNA damaging agents, e.g., radiation therapy or chemotherapeutic agents, are therefore more dependent on ATR for DNA repair and survival. Together, these results highlight a rationale for the selective sensitivity of proliferating tumor cells to ATR inhibition and the potential for a therapeutic window over healthy, proliferating cells. There is a need for new anti-cancer therapies and, in particular, for ATR inhibitor-based anti-cancer therapies PATENT ATTORNEY DOCKET NO.: 51246-070WO2 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION One aspect of the present invention provides a process for the preparation of a compound of formula (I): (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, which comprises reacting a compound of formula (II): (II), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein PG1is a protecting group, with a deprotecting agent.
