Description

WO 2011/006074 PCT/US2010/041538 1 SUBSTITUTED PYRAZOLO[1,5-a]PYRIMIDINE COMPOUNDS AS TRK KINASE INHIBITORS [0001] The present invention relates to novel compounds, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, to processes for making the compounds and to the use of the compounds in therapy. More particularly, it relates to certain substituted pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine compounds which exhibit Trk family protein tyrosine kinase inhibition, and which are useful in the treatment of pain, cancer, inflammation, neurodegenerative diseases and certain infectious diseases. [0002] The current treatment regimes for pain conditions utilize several classes of compounds. The opioids (such as morphine) have several drawbacks including emetic, constipatory and negative respiratory effects, as well as the potential for addictions. Non steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesics (NSAIDs, such as COX-1 or COX-2 types) also have drawbacks including insufficient efficacy in treating severe pain. In addition, COX-1 inhibitors can cause ulcers of the mucosa. Accordingly, there is a continuing need for new and more effective treatments for the relief of pain, especially chronic pain. [0003] Trk's are the high affinity receptor tyrosine kinases activated by a group of soluble growth factors called neurotrophins (NT). The Trk receptor family has three members: TrkA, TrkB and TrkC. Among the neurotrophins are (i) nerve growth factor (NGF) which activates TrkA, (ii) brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and NT-4/5 which activate TrkB and (iii) NT3 which activates TrkC. Trk's are widely expressed in neuronal tissue and are implicated in the maintenance, signaling and survival of neuronal cells (Patapoutian, A. et al., Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2001, 11, 272-280). [0004] Inhibitors of the Trk/neurotrophin pathway have been demonstrated to be effective in numerous pre-clinical animal models of pain. For example, antagonistic NGF and TrkA antibodies such as RN-624 have been shown to be efficacious in inflammatory and neuropathic pain animal models (Woolf, C.J. et al. (1994) Neuroscience 62,327-331; Zahn, P.K. et al. (2004) J. Pain 5, 157-163; McMahon, S. B. et al., (1995) Nat. Med. 1, 774-780; Ma, Q. P. and Woolf, C. J. (1997) Neuroreport 8, 807-810; Shelton, D. L. et al. (2005) Pain 116, 8-16; Delafoy, L. et al. (2003) Pain 105, 489-497; Lamb, K. et al. (2003) Neurogastroenterol. Motil. 15, 355-361; Jaggar, S. I. et al. (1999) Br. J. Anaesth. 83, 442 448) and neuropathic pain animal models (Ramer, M. S. and Bisby, M. A. (1999) Eur. J. Neurosci. 11, 837-846; Ro, L. S. et al. (1999); Pain 79, 265-274 Herzberg, U. et al. (1997) Neuroreport 8, 1613-1618; Theodosiou, M. et al. (1999) Pain 81, 245-255; Li, L. et al.
WO 2011/006074 PCT/US2010/041538 2 (2003) Mol. Cell. Neurosci. 23, 232-250; Gwak, Y. S. et al. (2003) Neurosci. Lett. 336, 117 120). Additionally, recent literature indicates after inflammation, BDNF levels and TrkB signaling is increased in the dorsal root ganglion (Cho, L. et al. Brain Research 1997, 749, 358) and several studies have show antibodies that decrease signaling through the BDNF/TrkB pathway inhibit neuronal hypersensitization and the associated pain (Chang-Qi, L et al. Molecular Pain 2008, 4:27). [00051 It has also been shown that NGF secreted by tumor cells and tumor invading macrophages directly stimulates TrkA located on peripheral pain fibers. Using various tumor models in both mice and rats, it was demonstrated that neutralizing NGF with a monoclonal antibody inhibits cancer related pain to a degree similar or superior to the highest tolerated dose of morphine. In addition, activation of the BDNF/TrkB pathway has been implicated in numerous studies as a modulator of various types of pain including inflammatory pain (Matayoshi, S., J. Physiol. 2005, 569:685-95), neuropathic pain (Thompson, S.W., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 1999, 96:7714-18) and surgical pain (Li, C.-Q. et al., Molecular Pain, 2008, 4(28), 1-11). Because TrkA and TrkB kinases may serve as a mediator of NGF driven biological responses, inhibitors of TrkA and/or other Trk kinases may provide an effective treatment for chronic pain states. [0006] Recent literature has also shown that overexpression, activation, amplification and/or mutation of Trk kinases are associated with many cancers including neuroblastoma (Brodeur, G. M., Nat. Rev. Cancer 2003, 3, 203-216), ovarian (Davidson. B., et al., Clin. Cancer Res. 2003, 9, 2248-2259) and colorectal cancer (Bardelli, A., Science 2003, 300, 949). In preclinical models of cancer, non-selective small molecule inhibitors of Trk A, B and C were efficacious in both inhibiting tumor growth and stopping tumor metastasis (Nakagawara, A. (2001) Cancer Letters 169:107-114; Meyer, J. et al. (2007) Leukemia, 1 10; Pierottia, M.A. and Greco A., (2006) Cancer Letters 232:90-98; Eric Adriaenssens, E. et al. Cancer Res (2008) 68:(2) 346-35 1). [00071 In addition, inhibition of the neurotrophin/Trk pathway has been shown to be effective in treatment of pre-clinical models of inflammatory diseases with NGF antibodies or non-selective small molecule inhibitors of Trk A, B and C. For example, inhibition of the neurotrophin/Trk pathway has been implicated in preclinical models of inflammatory lung diseases including asthma (Freund-Michel, V; Frossard, N.; Pharmacology & Therapeutics (2008), 117(1), 52-76), interstitial cystitis (Hu Vivian Y; et. al. The Journal of Urology (2005), 173(3), 1016-21), inflammatory bowel diseases including ulcerative colitis and WO 2011/006074 PCT/US2010/041538 3 Crohn's disease (Di Mola, F. F, et. al., Gut (2000), 46(5), 670-678) and inflammatory skin diseases such as atopic dermatitis (Dou, Y.-C.; et. al. Archives of Dermatological Research (2006), 298(1), 31-37), eczema and psoriasis (Raychaudhuri, S. P., et al., J. Investigative Dermatology (2004), 122(3), 812-819). [0008] The neurotrophin/Trk pathway, particularly BDNF/TrkB, has also been implicated in the etiology of neurodegenerative diseases including multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's Disease (Sohrabji, Farida; Lewis, Danielle K., Frontiers in Neuroendocrinology (2006), 27(4), 404-414). [0009] The TrkA receptor is also thought to be critical to the disease process in the infection of the parasitic infection of Trypanosoma cruzi (Chagas disease) in human hosts (de Melo-Jorge, M. et al. Cell Host & Microbe (2007), 1(4), 251-261). [0010] Trk inhibitors may also find use in treating disease related to an imbalance of the regulation of bone remodeling, such as osteoporosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and bone metastases. Bone metastases are a frequent complication of cancer, occurring in up to 70 percent of patients with advanced breast or prostate cancer and in approximately 15 to 30 percent of patients with carcinoma of the lung, colon, stomach, bladder, uterus, rectum, thyroid, or kidney. Osteolytic metastases can cause severe pain, pathologic fractures, life threatening hypercalcemia, spinal cord compression, and other nerve-compression syndromes. For these reasons, bone metastasis is a serious and costly complication of cancer. Therefore, agents that can induce apoptosis of proliferating osteoblasts would be highly advantageous. Expression of TrkA and TrkC receptors has been observed in the bone forming area in mouse models of bone fracture (K. Asaumi, et al., Bone (2000) 26(6) 625 633). In addition, localization of NGF was observed in almost all bone forming cells (K. Asaumi, et al.). Recently, it was demonstrated that a pan-Trk inhibitor inhibits the tyrosine signaling activated by neurotrophins binding to all three of the Trk receptors in human hFOB osteoblasts (J. Pinski, et al., (2002) 62, 986-989). These data support the rationale for the use of Trk inhibitors for the treatment of bone remodeling diseases, such as bone metastases in cancer patients. [0011] Several classes of small molecule inhibitors of Trk kinases said to be useful for treating pain or cancer are known (Expert Opin. Ther. Patents (2009) 19(3), 305-319). [0012] Pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine compounds are known. For example, International patent application publication WO 2004/089415 discloses certain pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine 3-carboxamide compounds having a phenyl, thienyl or furyl group in the 5-position which WO 2011/006074 PCT/US2010/041538 4 are said to be 11 -beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 inhibitors useful in combination therapies. [00131 European patent application publication No. EP 1948633A2 describes 5 phenyl-7-hydroxy-substituted pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamide compounds as casein kinase II modulators for treating cancer. [0014] PCT publication WO 2010/051549 describes pyrazolopyrimidine compounds having the general structure: H R R 1 0 [00151 said to be inhibitors of Jak kinases. [0016] It has now been found that certain pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine compounds bearing an aryl-substituted or heteroaryl-substituted heterocyclic group at the 5-position and a group having the formula C(=O)NR R2 at the 3-position, wherein R and R 2 are as defined herein, are inhibitors of Trk kinases, in particular inhibitors of TrkA and/or TrkB and/or TrkC, and are useful for treating disorders and diseases such as cancer and pain, including chronic and acute pain. Certain compounds which are inhibitors of TrkA and/or TrkB may be useful in the treatment of multiple types of pain including inflammatory pain, neuropathic pain, and pain associated with cancer, surgery, and bone fracture. In addition, compounds of the invention may be useful for treating cancer, inflammation, neurodegenerative diseases and certain infectious diseases. [00171 In addition, compounds of the invention have been shown to be selective for the Trk family of kinases over closely related kinases. In particular, compounds of the invention are more selective for inhibiting TrkA kinase activity over inhibiting the activity of one or more members of the Jak kinase family (Jakl, Jak2, Jak3 and Tyk2). Inhibition of the Jak family of kinases has been postulated or demonstrated to result in several unwanted side effects including CD8 T and NK cell depletion (which can result in loss of tumor surveillance and increased infections), elevated cholesterol, neutropenia, thrombocytopenia, decreased reticulocytes (resulting in anemia) and bone marrow suppression (Igaz P. et al., Inflamm. Res., 2001, 50:435-441; O'Shea J.J., Immunity, 1997, 7:1-11; Ihle J.N. et al., Canc. J. Sci. Am., 1998, 4 suppl 1 S84-91; Gupta P. et al., J. Clin. Pharm. 2009; Kremer J.M. et al., Arth. & Rheum., 2009, 60:1895-1905 and van Gurp E., et al., Am. J. Transpl, 2008, 8:1711-18).
WO 2011/006074 PCT/US2010/041538 5 Accordingly, compounds of the invention may be more suitable as therapeutic treatments owing to their ability to inhibit the Trk family of kinases in preference over closely related kinases such as the Jak family of kinases, and therefore may avoid unwanted side effects in a mammal being treated with a compound of the invention.

WO 2011/006074 PCT/US2010/041538 49 [003711 The selectivity of compounds of Formula I for TrkA versus one or more JAK kinases was determined using the assays describes in Examples C, D, E and F. [00372] It was unexpectedly discovered that compounds of Formula I wherein X is
CH
2 are particularly selective for inhibiting TrkA activity over inhibiting the activity of one or more JAK kinases, for example JAK2, as shown in Table 1. In one embodiment, compounds of Formula I are 10-30 fold more potent in inhibiting TrkA kinase activity over inhibiting Jak2 kinase activity. In one embodiment, compounds of Formula I are 30-100 fold more potent in inhibiting TrkA kinase activity over inhibiting Jak2 kinase activity. In one embodiment, compounds of Formula I are greater than 100 fold more potent in inhibiting TrkA kinase activity over inhibiting Jak2 kinase activity. [00373] Additionally, it was unexpectedly discovered that compounds of Formula I wherein R2 is a 3, 4 or 5 membered cycloalkyl ring which is optionally substituted with one or more substituents independently selected from -(1-4C alkyl), -OH, OMe, -CO 2 H and -(1 4C alkyl)OH are particularly selective for inhibiting TrkA activity over inhibiting the activity of one or more JAK kinases, for example JAK2, as shown in Table 1. [00374] Additionally, it was unexpectedly discovered that compounds of Formula I wherein Y is (i) fluorophenyl optionally substituted with a substituent selected from -0(1-4C alkyl)hetCyc 3 , -O(1-4C alkyl)O(1-3C alkyl) and -O(3-6C dihydroxyalkyl), (ii) pyridyl substituted with one or more substituents independently selected from F, methyl and ethyl, or (iii) 5-fluoropyridin-2(1H)-one optionally substituted with (1-4C)alkyl, are particularly selective for inhibiting TrkA activity over inhibiting the activity of one or more JAK kinases, for example JAK2, as shown in Table 1. [003751 Compounds of Formula I are useful for treating pain, including chronic and acute pain. Certain compounds which are inhibitors of TrkA and/or TrkB may be useful in the treatment of multiple types of pain including inflammatory pain, neuropathic pain, and pain associated with cancer, surgery, and bone fracture. [00376] In one embodiment, compounds of Formula I are useful for treating acute pain. Acute pain, as defined by the International Association for the Study of Pain, results from disease, inflammation, or injury to tissues. This type of pain generally comes on suddenly, for example, after trauma or surgery, and may be accompanied by anxiety or stress. The cause can usually be diagnosed and treated, and the pain is confined to a given period of time and severity. In some instances, it can become chronic.
WO 2011/006074 PCT/US2010/041538 50 [003771 In one embodiment, compounds of Formula I are useful for treating chronic pain. Chronic pain, as defined by the International Association for the Study of Pain, is widely believed to represent disease itself. It can be made much worse by environmental and psychological factors. Chronic pain persists over a longer period than acute pain and is resistant to most medical treatments, generally over 3 months or more. It can and often does cause severe problems for patients. [00378] Compounds of Formula I are also useful for treating cancer. Particular examples include neuroblastoma, ovarian, pancreatic, colorectal and prostate cancer. [003791 Compounds of Formula I are also useful for treating inflammation and certain infectious diseases. [00380] In addition, compounds of Formula I may also be used to treat interstitial cystitis (IC), painful bladder syndrome (PBS), urinary incontinence, asthma, anorexia, atopic dermatitis, and psoriasis. [00381] Compounds of Formula I are also useful for treating a neurodegenerative disease in a mammal, comprising administering to said mammal one or more compounds of Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in an amount effective to treat or prevent said neurodegenerative disease. In one embodiment, compounds of Formula I may also be used to treat demyelination and dysmyelination by promoting myelination, neuronal survival, and oligodendrocyte differentiation via blocking Sp35-TrkA interaction. In one embodiment, the neurodegenerative disease is multiple sclerosis. In one embodiment, the neurodegenerative disease is Parkinson's disease. In one embodiment, the neurodegenerative disease is Alzheimer's disease. [00382] As used herein, the term treatment includes prophylaxis as well as treatment of a preexisting condition. Beneficial or desired clinical results include, but are not limited to, alleviation of symptoms, diminishment of extent of disease, stabilized (i.e., not worsening) state of disease, delay or slowing of disease progression, amelioration or palliation of the disease state, and remission (whether partial or total), whether detectable or undetectable. "Treatment" can also mean prolonging survival as compared to expected survival if not receiving treatment. Those in need of treatment include those already with the condition or disorder, as well as those prone to have the condition or disorder or those in which the condition or disorder is to be prevented. [00383] Accordingly, another embodiment of this invention provides a method of treating pain in a mammal, comprising administering to said mammal one or more WO 2011/006074 PCT/US2010/041538 51 compounds of Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in an amount effective to treat or prevent said pain. [00384] Another embodiment of this invention provides a method of treating inflammation in a mammal, comprising administering to said mammal one or more compounds of Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in an amount effective to treat or prevent said inflammation. [003851 Another embodiment of this invention provides a method of treating a neurodegenerative disease in a mammal, comprising administering to said mammal one or more compounds of Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in an amount effective to treat or prevent said neurodegenerative disease. [00386] Another embodiment of this invention provides a method of treating Trypanosoma cruzi infection in a mammal, comprising administering to said mammal one or more compounds of Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in an amount effective to treat or prevent said Trypanosoma cruzi infection. [003871 The phrase "effective amount" means an amount of compound that, when administered to a mammal in need of such treatment, is sufficient to (i) treat or prevent a particular disease, condition, or disorder which can be treated with an inhibitor of TrkA and/or TrkB, (ii) attenuate, ameliorate, or eliminate one or more symptoms of the particular disease, condition, or disorder, or (iii) prevent or delay the onset of one or more symptoms of the particular disease, condition, or disorder described herein. [00388] The amount of a compound of Formula I that will correspond to such an amount will vary depending upon factors such as the particular compound, disease condition and its severity, the identity (e.g., weight) of the mammal in need of treatment, but can nevertheless be routinely determined by one skilled in the art. [00389] As used herein, the term "mammal" refers to a warm-blooded animal that has or is at risk of developing a disease described herein and includes, but is not limited to, guinea pigs, dogs, cats, rats, mice, hamsters, and primates, including humans. [00390] The compounds of the present invention can be used in combination with one or more additional drugs that work by the same or a different mechanism of action. Examples include anti-inflammatory compounds, steroids (e.g., dexamethasone, cortisone and fluticasone), analgesics such as NSAIDs (e.g., aspirin, ibuprofen, indomethacin, and ketoprofen), and opioids (such as morphine), and chemotherapeutic agents.

WO 2011/006074 PCT/US2010/041538 53 Examples [00398] The following examples illustrate the invention. In the examples described below, unless otherwise indicated all temperatures are set forth in degrees Celsius. Reagents were purchased from commercial suppliers such as Aldrich Chemical Company, Lancaster, TCI or Maybridge, and were used without further purification unless otherwise indicated. Tetrahydrofuran (THF), dichloromethane (DCM, methylene chloride), toluene, dimethyl formamide (DMF) and dioxane were purchased from Aldrich in Sure/SealTM bottles and used as received. [003991 The reactions set forth below were done generally under a positive pressure of nitrogen or argon or with a drying tube (unless otherwise stated) in anhydrous solvents, and the reaction flasks were typically fitted with rubber septa for the introduction of substrates and reagents via syringe. Glassware was oven dried and/or heat dried. [00400] Column chromatography was done on a Biotage system (Manufacturer: Dyax Corporation) having a silica gel or C-18 reverse phase column, or on a silica SepPak cartridge (Waters). Biological assays [00401] The ability of compounds of the invention to act as TrkA inhibitors may be demonstrated by the assays described in Examples A and B. The ability of compounds of the invention to act as TrkB inhibitors may be demonstrated by the assay described in Example B. [00402] The selectivity of compounds of Formula I for inhibiting TrkA kinase activity over inhibiting one or more JAK kinases was determined using the assays describes in Examples C, D, E and F. Example A TrkA ELISA assay [004031 An enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA) was used to assess TrkA kinase activity in the presence of inhibitors. Immulon 4HBX 384-well microtiter plates (Thermo part #8755) were coated with a 0.025 mg/mL solution of poly (Glu, Ala, Tyr; 6:3:1; Sigma P3899). Various concentrations of test compound, 2.5 nM TrkA (Invitrogen Corp., histidine-tagged recombinant human TrkA, cytoplasmic domain), and 500 gM ATP were incubated for 25 minutes at ambient temperature in the coated plates while shaking. The assay buffer consisted of 25 mM MOPS pH 7.5, 0.005% (v/v) Triton X-100 and 5 mM MgCl 2 . The reaction mixture was removed from the plate by washing with PBS containing WO 2011/006074 PCT/US2010/041538 54 0.1% (v/v) Tween 20. The phosphorylated reaction product was detected using 0.2 gg/mL of a phosphotyrosine specific monoclonal antibody (clone PY20) conjugated to horseradish peroxidase in conjunction with the TMB Peroxidase Substrate System (KPL). After the addition of IM phosphoric acid, the chromogenic substrate color intensity was quantitated via absorbance at 450 nm. IC 50 values were calculated using either a 4 or 5-parameter logistic curve fit and are provided in Table 1. Example B TrkA and TrkB Omnia Assay [00404] Trk enzymatic selectivity was assessed using Omnia Kinase Assay reagents from Invitrogen Corp. Enzyme (either TrkA or TrkB from Invitrogen Corp.) and test compound (various concentrations) were incubated for 10 minutes at ambient temperature in a 384-well white polypropylene plate (Nunc catalog# 267462). Omnia Tyr Peptide #4 (for TrkA) or #5 (for TrkB), as well as ATP, were then added to the plate. Final concentrations were as follows: 20 nM enzyme, 500 gM of ATP for TrkA assay or 1 mM ATP for TrkB assay, 10 gM peptide substrate. The assay buffer consisted of 25 mM MOPS pH 7.5, 0.005% (v/v) Triton X-100 and 5 mM MgCl 2 . The production of phosphorylated peptide was monitored continuously for 70 minutes using a Molecular Devices FlexStation 11384 microplate reader (excitation = 360 nm; emission = 485 nm). Initial rates were calculated from the progress curves. IC 50 values were calculated from these rates using either a 4 or 5 parameter logistic curve fit. [004051 In each of TrkA and TrkB Omnia assays, compounds of the invention had an average IC 50 value below 1000 nM. Certain compounds had an average IC 50 value below 100 nM. General JAK kinase Enzyme Inhibition Assay Method [00406] The assays described in Examples C, D, E and F for the determination of JAKI, JAK2, JAK3 and Tyk2 kinase activity, respectively, utilized the Omnia* Kinase fluorescence peptide substrate-based technology (Invitrogen). The specific components of the assay mixture are described in Examples C, D and E. In each of the assays described in Examples C, D and E, Mg 2 + is chelated upon phosphorylation of the Omnia peptide by the kinase to form a bridge between the chelation-enhanced fluorophore Sox and the phosphate, resulting in an increase in fluorescence emission at 485 nM when excited at 360 nM. The reactions were therefore read at excitation 360 nm and emission was measured at 485 nm every 50 seconds for 45 minutes using a PerkinElmer EnVision Multilabel Plate Reader.
WO 2011/006074 PCT/US2010/041538 55 [004071 The final buffer conditions for each of the JAKI, JAK2, JAK3 and Tyk2 assays were as follows: 25 mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 10 mM MgCl 2 , 0.01% Triton X-100 and 1 mM DTT.
IC
50 Determinations: [00408] Compounds were prepared at 50x the final concentration in DMSO by conducting 3-fold serial dilutions from a 500-gM or 1000-gM intermediate dilution to give a 10-point dosing curve having a high dose of 10 or 20 gM. Two-gL aliquots of these were transferred to a fresh plate for a ten-fold intermediate dilution with assay buffer. Five-gL aliquots of the diluted compounds were then transferred to 20-gL of assay mixtures described in Examples C, D, E and F for a final concentration of DMSO of 2%. A standard or reference compound was typically included on each assay plate to validate that plate. For each plate, percent of control (POC) values were calculated for each well according to the following equation: POC= Sample - Xm'" X 100, Xmax - Xmin where X. = Average Uninhibited Controls min= Average Background
IC
50 's were estimated from the POC's using a standard 4-parameter logistic model: YA+ B-A Y+ where A = Minimum Y (Bottom Asymptote) B = Maximum Y (Top Asymptote) C = EC 5 o D = Slope Factor X = Compound Concentration (nM) Y = POC [00409] The IC 5 0 is defined as the concentration of inhibitor at which the POC equals 50 for the fitted curve.

Human Tyk2 kinase domain, comprising amino acids 886 to 1187 with 10 additional histidine residues (histidine tag) on the carboxy terminus, was expressed and purified from bacculovirus in-house at Array BioPharma Inc. (Boulder, CO). The histidine tag was cleaved after purification using standard conditions. Results are shown in Table 2.

The resulting slurry was filtered, yielding the title compound hydrochloride salt as a white solid (17.2 g). To obtain the free base, the HCl salt product was dispersed in a mixture of EtOAc (200 mL) and NaOH solution (100 mL, 2 N aq.) The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc. The combined organic extracts were filtered and concentrated to give the desired product as a liquid (13.2 g, 85% yield). [00418] The enantiomeric excess (% ee) of (R)-2-(2,5-difluorophenyl)pyrrolidine was determined as follows: To an ethanol solution of (R)-2-(2,5-difluorophenyl)pyrrolidine was added excess N-(2,4-dinitro-5-fluorophenyl)-L-alanine amide (FDAA, Marfey's reagent).
