Description

WO 2008/071961 PCT/GB2007/004766 2-QUINOLINONE AND 2-QUINOXALINONE- DERIVATIVES AND THEIR USE AS ANTIBACTERIAL AGENTS Field of Invention The present invention relates to novel piperidines, pharmaceutical compositions thereof, and methods of use. In addition, the present invention relates to therapeutic methods for the treatment of bacterial infections. Background The international health community continues to express serious concern that the evolution of antibacterial resistance will result in strains against which currently available antibacterial agents will be ineffective. For example, resistant strains of Gram-positive pathogens such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative staphylococci (MRCNS), penicillin-resistant Streptococcus pneumoniae and multiple resistant Enterococcus faecium are both difficult to treat and difficult to eradicate. Consequently, in order to overcome the threat of widespread multi-drug resistant organisms, there is an on-going need to develop new antibiotics, particularly those with either a novel mechanism of action and/or containing new pharmacophoric groups. Summary In accordance with the present invention, the applicants have hereby discovered compounds that possess the ability to act as antimicrobials. Accordingly, the present invention relates to compounds that demonstrate antibacterial activity, processes for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions containing them as the active ingredient, their use as medicaments, and their use in the manufacture of medicaments for use in the treatment of bacterial infections in warm-blooded animals such as humans.

In one aspect, "halo" may refer to fluoro. Where optional substituents are chosen from "one or more" groups it is to be understood that this definition includes all substituents being chosen from one of the specified groups or the substituents being chosen from two or more of the specified groups. The term "carbocyclyl" refers to a saturated, partially saturated, or unsaturated, mono or bicyclic carbon ring that contains 3-12 ring atoms, wherein one or more -CH 2 - groups can optionally be replaced by a corresponding number of -C(O)- groups. In one aspect, the term "carbocyclyl" may refer to a monocyclic ring containing 3 to 6 ring atoms or a bicyclic ring containing 9 or 10 atoms. In another aspect, the term "carbocyclyl" may refer to a monocyclic ring containing 5 or 6 atoms. Illustrative examples of "carbocyclyl" include, but are not limited to, adamantyl, cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclopentenyl, cyclohexyl, cyclohexenyl, 1-oxocyclopentyl, phenyl, naphthyl, tetralinyl, indanyl or 5 WO 2008/071961 PCT/GB2007/004766 1 -oxoindanyl.

The symbol "(±)" is intended to signify a racemic mixture; i.e. an optically inactive mixture of equal amounts of (+) and (-) enantiomers of the indicated compound. When a compound or mixture is designated as being "cis (±)" or "trans (±)," it should be understood that the cis or trans relationship indicated therein pertains to the relationship between the group on carbon "a" and the -NH- group on carbon "b." Where a particular R group is present in a compound of Formulas (I) or (II) more than once, it is intended that each selection for that R group is independent at each occurrence. Unless specifically stated, the bonding atom of a group may be any suitable atom of that group; for example, propyl includes prop-1-yl and prop-2-yl. The term "substantially free" is intended to indicate that the specified entity is present in an amount less than 10%, more particularly less than 5%, in particular less than 2%, more 6 WO 2008/071961 PCT/GB2007/004766 particularly less than 1%, in particular less then 0.5%, particularly less than 0.2%. As used herein, the term "optionally substituted," indicates that substitution is optional and therefore it is possible for the designated group to be either substituted or unsubstituted. In the event a substitution is desired, any number of hydrogens on the designated group may be replaced with a selection from the indicated substituents, provided that the normal valency of the atoms on a particular substituent is not exceeded, and that the substitution results in a stable compound which exhibits an antibacterial effect. As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable" refers to those compounds, materials, compositions, and/or dosage forms which are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of human beings and animals without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response, or other problem or complication, commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio. As used herein, the phrase "effective amount" means an amount of a compound or composition which is sufficient to significantly and positively modify the symptoms and/or conditions to be treated (e.g., provide a positive clinical response). The effective amount of an active ingredient for use in a pharmaceutical composition will vary with the particular condition being treated, the severity of the condition, the duration of the treatment, the nature of concurrent therapy, the particular active ingredient(s) being employed, the particular pharmaceutically-acceptable excipient(s)/carrier(s) utilized, and like factors within the knowledge and expertise of the attending physician. Compounds and substituent definitions of the present invention have been named with the aid of ACD/Name by ACD/Labs@. Compounds of Formulas (I) and (1I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof may form stable pharmaceutically acceptable acid or base salts, and in such cases administration of a compound as a salt may be appropriate, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts may be made by conventional methods well-known in the art. 7 WO 2008/071961 PCT/GB2007/004766 A suitable pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a compound of the invention is, for example, an acid-addition salt of a compound of the invention which is sufficiently basic, for example, an acid-addition salt with, for example, an inorganic or organic acid, for example hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, phosphoric, trifluoroacetic, citric or maleic acid. In addition a suitable pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a compound of the invention which is sufficiently acidic is an alkali metal salt, for example a sodium or potassium salt, an alkaline earth metal salt, for example a calcium or magnesium salt, an ammonium salt or a salt with an organic base which affords a physiologically-acceptable cation, for example a salt with methylamine, dimethylamine, trimethylamine, piperidine, morpholine or tris-(2-hydroxyethyl)amine. The compounds of Formulas (I) and (II) have two chiral carbons on the central piperidine ring, carbon "a" and carbon "b." Additionally, the compounds of Formulas (I) and (II) may have other chiral centers and/or geometric isomeric centers (E- and Z- isomers) It is to be understood that the invention encompasses all such optical, diastereoisomers and geometric isomers that possess antibacterial activity. The invention further relates to any and all tautomeric forms of the compounds of Formula (I) and (II) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof that possess antibacterial activity. It is also to be understood that certain compounds of Formulas (I) and (1I) can exist in solvated as well as unsolvated forms such as, for example, hydrated forms.

In another aspect, the present invention provides compounds of Formulas (I) and (II) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, as illustrated by the Examples, each of which provides a further independent aspect of the invention. Biological Activity The compounds of Formulas (I) (II) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are of interest due to their antibacterial effects. The ability of the invention compounds disclosed herein to achieve an antibacterial effect may be demonstrated by the following tests. Bacterial Susceptibility Testing Methods I Compounds may be tested for antimicrobial activity by susceptibility testing in liquid media in a 96 well format. Compounds may be dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide and tested in 10 doubling dilutions in the susceptibility assays. The organisms used in the assay may be 51 WO 2008/071961 PCT/GB2007/004766 grown overnight on suitable agar media and then suspended in a liquid medium appropriate for the growth of the organism. The suspension may be adjusted to be equal to a 0.5 McFarland and a further 1 in 10 dilution may be made into the same liquid medium to prepare the final organism suspension in 100 pL. Plates may be incubated under appropriate conditions at 37 'C for 24 hours prior to reading. The Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) was determined as the lowest drug concentration able to reduce growth by 80% or more. Compounds were evaluated against a panel of Gram-positive species, including Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus pneumoniae, Streptococcus pyogenes, and Enterococcus faecium. In addition, compounds were evaluated against a panel of Gram negative species including Haemophilus influenzae, Escherichia coli and Moraxella catarrhalis. Compounds of the present invention and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are believed to generally have MIC's less than or equal to 8 Rg/ml versus one or more of the organisms named above. The compound of Example 2 had an MIC of 0.25 (mg/L) against Staphylococcus aureus and an MIC of 0.5 (mg/L) against Escherichia coli. Bacterial Susceptibility Testing Methods 2 Compounds may be tested for antimicrobial activity by susceptibility testing using microbroth dilution methods recommended by CSLI. Compounds may be dissolved in dimethylsulfoxide and tested in 10 doubling dilutions in the susceptibility assays such that the final dimethylsulfoxide concentration in the assay is 2% (v/v). The Staphylococcus aureus (Sau) 516 cells used in the assay may be grown overnight on appropriate agar media and then suspended in the NCCLS-recommended liquid susceptibility-testing media. The turbidity of each suspension may be adjusted to be equal to a 0.5 McFarland standard, and a further 1-in 200 dilution may be made into the same liquid medium to prepare the final organism suspension, and 100 pL of this suspension may be added to each well of a microtiter plate containing compound dissolved in 2 pL of dimethylsulfoxide. Plates may be incubated under appropriate conditions of atmosphere and temperature and for times according to NCCLS standard methods prior to being read. As used in Table 1 below, the term "inhibition" refers to the percentage of Staphylococcus aureus 516 cell growth that is suppressed (compared to 52 WO 2008/071961 PCT/GB2007/004766 an untreated sample) by the compound of the indicated example number. When tested in the above in-vitro assay, the compounds and salts of the example numbers listed below were tested at the indicated concentrations, providing the indicated inhibitions. In most instances, the highest concentrations at which the compounds were tested was 8 pg/mL. In some instances, however, compounds were tested at concentrations higher than 8 pg/mL, typically when the concentration was first measured in PM and was subsequently converted to ptg/mL. In those cases in which compounds were tested at more than one concentration higher than 8 ttg/mL, the concentration closest to 8 ptg/mL is provided below.

A sterile injectable preparation may also be a sterile injectable solution or suspension in a non-toxic parenterally-acceptable diluent or solvent, for example a solution in 1,3-butanediol. Compositions for administration by inhalation may be in the form of a conventional pressurized aerosol arranged to dispense the active ingredient either as an aerosol containing finely divided solid or liquid droplets. Conventional aerosol propellants such as volatile fluorinated hydrocarbons or hydrocarbons may be used and the aerosol device is conveniently arranged to dispense a metered quantity of active ingredient. For further information on formulation the reader is referred to Chapter 25.2 in Volume 5 of Comprehensive Medicinal Chemistry (Corwin Hansch; Chairman of Editorial Board), Pergamon Press 1990. The amount of active ingredient that is combined with one or more excipients to produce a single dosage form will necessarily vary depending upon the host treated and the particular route of administration. For example, a formulation intended for oral administration to humans will generally contain, for example, from 0.5 mg to 4 g of active agent compounded with an appropriate and convenient amount of excipients which may vary from about 5 to about 98 percent by weight of the total composition. Dosage unit forms will generally contain about 1 mg to about 500 mg of an active ingredient. For further information on Routes of Administration and Dosage Regimes the reader is referred to Chapter 25.3 in Volume 5 of Comprehensive Medicinal Chemistry (Corwin Hansch; Chairman of Editorial Board), Pergamon Press 1990. In addition to the compounds of the present invention, the pharmaceutical composition of this invention may also contain or be co-administered (simultaneously, sequentially or separately) with one or more known drugs selected from other clinically useful classes of antibacterial agents (for example, macrolides, quinolones, B-lactams or aminoglycosides) and/or other anti infective agents (for example, an antifungal triazole or amphotericin). These may include carbapenems, for example meropenem or imipenem, to broaden the therapeutic effectiveness. Compounds of this invention may also contain or be co-administered with 68 WO 2008/071961 PCT/GB2007/004766 bactericidal/permeability-increasing protein (BPI) products or efflux pump inhibitors to improve activity against gram negative bacteria and bacteria resistant to antimicrobial agents. As stated above the size of the dose required for the therapeutic or prophylactic treatment of a particular disease state will necessarily be varied depending on the host treated, the route of administration and the severity of the illness being treated. Preferably a daily dose in the range of 1-50 mg/kg is employed. Accordingly, the optimum dosage may be determined by the practitioner who is treating any particular patient. In addition to its use in therapeutic medicine, the compound of Formulas (I) and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts are also useful as pharmacological tools in the development and standardization of in vitro and in vivo test systems for the evaluation of antibacterial effects in laboratory animals such as cats, dogs, rabbits, monkeys, rats and mice, as part of the search for new therapeutic agents. In any of the above-mentioned pharmaceutical composition, process, method, use, medicament, and manufacturing features of the instant invention, any of the alternate embodiments of the compounds of the invention described herein also apply. Process If not commercially available, the necessary starting materials for the procedures such as those described herein may be made by procedures which are selected from standard organic chemical techniques, techniques which are analogous to the synthesis of known, structurally similar compounds, or techniques which are analogous to the described procedure or the procedures described in the Examples. It is noted that many of the starting materials for synthetic methods as described herein are commercially available and/or widely reported in the scientific literature, or could be made from commercially available compounds using adaptations of processes reported in the scientific literature. The reader is further referred to Advanced Organic Chemistry, 5 1h Edition, by Jerry March and Michael Smith, published by John Wiley & Sons 2001, for general guidance on reaction conditions and reagents. 69 WO 2008/071961 PCT/GB2007/004766 It will also be appreciated that in some of the reactions mentioned herein it may be necessary/desirable to protect any sensitive groups in compounds. The instances where protection is necessary or desirable are known to those skilled in the art, as are suitable methods for such protection. Conventional protecting groups may be used in accordance with standard practice (for illustration see T.W. Greene, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, published by John Wiley and Sons, 1991). Examples of suitable protecting groups for a hydroxy group are, for example, an acyl group, for example an alkanoyl group such as acetyl, an aroyl group, for example benzoyl, a silyl group such as trimethylsilyl or an arylmethyl group, for example benzyl. The deprotection conditions for the above protecting groups will necessarily vary with the choice of protecting group. Thus, for example, an acyl group such as an alkanoyl or an aroyl group may be removed, for example, by hydrolysis with a suitable base such as an alkali metal hydroxide, for example lithium or sodium hydroxide. Alternatively a silyl group such as trimethylsilyl may be removed, for example, by fluoride or by aqueous acid; or an arylmethyl group such as a benzyl group may be removed, for example, by hydrogenation in the presence of a catalyst such as palladium-on-carbon. A suitable protecting group for an amino group is, for example, an acyl group, for example an alkanoyl group such as acetyl, an alkoxycarbonyl group, for example a methoxycarbonyl, ethoxycarbonyl or t-butoxycarbonyl group, an arylmethoxycarbonyl group, for example benzyloxycarbonyl, or an aroyl group, for example benzoyl. The deprotection conditions for the above protecting groups necessarily vary with the choice of protecting group. Thus, for example, an acyl group such as an alkanoyl or alkoxycarbonyl group or an aroyl group may be removed for example, by hydrolysis with a suitable base such as an alkali metal hydroxide, for example lithium or sodium hydroxide. Alternatively an acyl group such as a t-butoxycarbonyl group may be removed, for example, by treatment with a suitable acid as hydrochloric, sulfuric, phosphoric acid or trifluoroacetic acid and an arylmethoxycarbonyl group such as a benzyloxycarbonyl group may be removed, for example, by hydrogenation over a catalyst such as palladium-on-carbon, or by treatment with a Lewis acid, for example boron tris(trifluoroacetate). A suitable alternative protecting group for a primary amino group is, for example, a phthaloyl group, which may be removed by treatment with an alkylamine, for example dimethylaminopropylamine or 2-hydroxyethylamine, or with hydrazine. Another 70 WO 2008/071961 PCT/GB2007/004766 suitable protecting group for an amine is, for example, a cyclic ether such as tetrahydrofuran, which may be removed by treatment with a suitable acid such as trifluoroacetic acid. The protecting groups may be removed at any convenient stage in the synthesis using conventional techniques well known in the chemical art, or they may be removed during a later reaction step or work-up.

A suitable solvent is tetrahydrofuran, dichloromethane or chloroform/methanol mixtures. The imine intermediate is typically not isolated; rather, the reducing agent is generally added to the reaction mixture after imine formation. Suitable reducing agents for the second step of the reaction (the reduction) include boron reducing agents such as NaB(OAc) 3 H or NaBH 3 CN. Deprotection of the compound of Formula (AF) provides a compound of Formula (AA). Suitable protecting groups for the amino group 76 WO 2008/071961 PCT/GB2007/004766 substituent on the piperidine ring of the compound of Formula (Al) include alkoxycarbonyls such as t-butoxycarbonyl, which may be removed using acids such as HCI; and azides, which may be converted to the amine reductively, either with triphenyl phosphine (Staudinger Reaction) or by hydrogenation.

In similar manner, cinnamoyl chloride may be replaced with E-ethoxyacryloyl chloride and cyclization of the intermediate E-ethoxyacryloylamides affected with sulfuric acid instead of aluminium trichloride (E. Baston et al, European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry 35 (2000) 931). Unsymmetrical substituted anilines generally lead to regioisomeric quinolin-2(1H)-one derivatives, which may be difficult to separate by chromatography due to limited solubility. Such mixtures may be separated either by crystallization or may be converted to the corresponding 2-chloroquinoline derivatives (for example with phosphorusIll oxychloride), which may be separated by chromatography or by crystallization and can then be hydrolyzed back with refluxing hydrochloride acid to the single regioisomers of the compound of Formula (AO). 78 WO 2008/071961 PCT/GB2007/004766 A compound of Formula (AO) may also be prepared according to Scheme 6.

Examples of suitable catalysts for such a reaction include Pd(OH) 2 , Platinum black, and PtO 2 , followed by reaction with di-t-butylcarbonate, providing a compound of Formula (AZ). When an optically active form of a compound of the invention is required, it may be obtained by carrying out one of the above procedures using a pure enantiomer as a starting material, or by resolution of a mixture of the enantiomers or diastereomers of the final products or chiral intermediates using a standard procedure. The resolution of enantiomers may be achieved by 82 WO 2008/071961 PCT/GB2007/004766 chromatography on a chiral stationary phase, such as a Chiralpak AD column. Consideration has to be given to solubility as well as resolution. Alternatively, resolution may be obtained by preparation and selective crystallization of a diastereomeric salt of a chiral intermediate or chiral product with a chiral acid, such as camphersulfonic acid. Alternatively, a method of stereoselective synthesis may be employed, for example by using a chiral variant of a protection group, a chiral catalyst or a chiral reagent where appropriate in the reaction sequence. Enzymatic techniques may also be useful for the preparation of optically active compounds and/or intermediates. Similarly, when a pure regioisomer of a compound of the invention is required, it may be obtained by carrying out one of the above procedures using a pure regioisomer as a starting material, or by resolution of a mixture of the regioisomers or intermediates using a standard procedure.
