Description

TITLE RETROVIRAL PROTEASE INHIBITORS
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to compounds which are inhibitors of aspartic proteases, particularly of retroviruses.
Retroviruses, that is, viruses within the family of Retroviridae, are a class of viruses which transport their genetic material as ribonucleic acid rather than deoxyribonucleic acid. Also known as RNA-tumor viruses, their presence has been associated with a wide range of diseases in humans and animals. They are believed to be the causative agents in pathological states associated with infection by Rous sarcoma virus (RSV), murine leukemia virus (MLV), mouse mammary tumor virus (MMTV), feline leukemia virus (FeLV), bovine leukemia virus (BLV), Mason-Pfizer monkey virus (MPMV), simian sarcoma virus (SSV), simian acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (SAIDS), human Tlymphotropic virus (HTLV-I, -II) and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1, HIV-2), which is the etiologic agent of AIDS (acquired immunodeficiency syndrome) and AIDS related complexes, and many others. Although the pathogens have, in many of these cases, been isolated, no satisfactory method for treating this type of infection has been developed. Among these viruses, the HTLV and HIV have been especially well characterized.
Critical to the replication of retroviruses is the production of functional viral proteins. Protein synthesis is accomplished by translation of the open reading frames into polyprotein constructs, corresponding to the gag, pol and env reading frames. The gag and pol precursor proteins, are processed by a viral protease into the functional proteins. The HIV-1 protease has been classified as an aspartic acid protease (Meek et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA. 88, 1841 (1989)). The proteolytic activity provided by the viral protease in processing the polyproteins cannot be provided by the host and is essential to the life cycle of the retrovirus. In fact, it has been demonstrated that retroviruses which lack the protease or contain a mutated form of it, lack infectivity. See Katoh et al., Virology. 145, 280-92(1985), Crawford, et al., J. Virol.. 53, 899-907(1985), Debouck, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA. 84, 8903-6(1987). Inhibition of retroviral protease, therefore, presents a method of therapy for retroviral disease.
Methods to express retroviral proteases in E. coli have been disclosed (Debouck, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA. 8903-06(1987) and Tomasselli et al., Biochemistry. 29, 264-9 (1990) and refs. therein).
Inhibitors of recombinant HTV protease have been reported (Dreyer et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA. 86, 9752-56 (1989); Tomasselli et al. supra: Roberts et al., Science. 248. 358 (1990); Rich et al., J. Med. Chem..21 1285-88 (1990); Sigal et al., Eur. Pat. Appl. No. 337714; Dreyer et al. Eur. Pat. Appl. No. 352000). Moreover, certain of these inhibitors have been shown to be potent inhibitors of viral proteolytic processing in cultures of HlV-1 infected T-lymphocytes (Meek et al., Nature (Londonl. 343.90 (1990) and by Roberts et al. supra ).
The limitations of current strategies for aspartic protease inhibition include (1) oral bioavailability; (2) plasma clearance lifetimes (e.g., through biliary excretion or
degradation); (3) selectivity of inhibition; and (4) in the case of intracellular targets, membrane permeability or cellular uptake. The present invention relates to a new inhibitors of retroviral and aspartic proteases. Unlike previously described inhibitors , the
compounds of this invention are not analogues of peptide substrates possessing a scissile dipeptide mimetic. They also deviate substantially from peptide substrate-like structure in that they do not possess a conventional amino-to-carboxyl terminus orientation.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
This invention comprises compounds having the structures particularly pointed out in the claims and described hereinafter which bind to retroviral proteases. These
compounds are inhibitors of viral protease and are useful for treating disease related to infection by viruses.
This invention is also a pharmaceutical composition, which comprises an
aforementioned compound and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier therefor.
This invention further constitutes a method for treating viral diseases, which comprises administering to a mammal in need thereof an effective amount of an
aforementioned inhibitor compound. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Synthesis of componds I in which R1 = R12CH2, R1 = R2, and X1 = X2 isachieved from D-(+)-arabitol (Schemes 1-2). Thus, D-(+)-arabitol is convened to 1,2:4,5- Dianhydro-3-(O-benzyl)-D-(+)-arabitol (10) as described by S.L. Schreiber, T. Samnakia and D.E. Uehling, J. Org. Chem. 54, 15-16 (1989). The diepoxide 10 can then be reacted with NaN3 in DMF to provide the resulting dihydroxy terminal diazide, which is convened to the protected diaziridine, 1.2:4,5-Di-(N-benzyloxycarbonylimino)-3-(O-benzyl)pentanol, by dimesylation of the dihydroxy terminal diazide followed by reduction with LiAIH4 with concommitant diaziridine formation followed by reaction with benzylchloroformate. The resulting diaziridine is reacted with appropriate nucleophiles such as (CH3)2CuLi, to introduce the side-chain groups R1 (Scheme 1). This procedure is especially suited to the preparation of compound I where R1 = CH2R12 where R12 is hydrogen or is a group that foπns a stable and reactive cuprate reagent, such as methyl, butyl, isopropyl, or other alkyl, alkenyl or aryl which is optionally substituted, for example with fluorine or alkoxy or protected hydroxyl.
Alternatively, compounds represented by formula I in which R1 = R12CH2, R1 =
R2, and X1 = X2 can be prepared from the diepoxide 10 by reaction with appropriate carbon nucleophiles such as cuprate reagents (R12)2 CuLi or alkynylaluminum reagents to introduce the side-chain groups R1 (Scheme 2). This procedure is also especially suited to the preparation of compound I where R1 = CH2R12 where R12 is a group that forms a stable and reactive cuprate reagent, as described above. The resulting diol product is converted to the corresponding diamine with inversion of configuration at the alcohol carbons. One way in which this is accomplished is via conversion of the diol to the dimesylate, by reaction with methanesulfonyl chloride and triethylamine, followed by displacement with NaN3 in DMF to provide the substituted 2,4-diazido-3-benzyloxypentane; conversion to the 2,4-diamino derivative follows by reduction with a hydride reagent such as LiAIH4 or by catalytic hydrogenation with a catalyst such as Pd(O) or Raney-Ni to provide the core structure I (Scheme 2). Introduction of the groups X1 = X2 is accomplished by standard condensation reactions as are well known in the an.
Compound I in which R12 is NH-A can be prepared from the diepoxide 10 by reaction with NaN3 in DMF to provide the resulting dihydroxy terminal diazide, which is convened to the corresponding tetraazide with inversion of configuration at the alcohol carbons as described above, and subsequently to the corresponding tetraamine. Selective reaction of the terminal amines with groups A or with protecting groups such as Boc or Cbz is then followed by introdution of the groups χ1 = X2. In a related fashion, groups R1 = R2 in compounds I in which R1 is N(R10)2, NR15R16, R5-(R6R7C)mV- or
R5(R6R7C)m-S(O)n- can be introduced by reaction of diepoxide 10 with the appropriate oxygen, nitrogen, or thiol nucleophile, with subsequent thiol oxidation as necessary;
reaction of diepoxide 10 with the appropriate phosphorus nucleophile in an Arbuzov or Michaelis-Arbuzov reaction allows introduction of gropus R1 = R2 which are
(R13O)P(O)(OR14)- or R13P(O)(OR14)-.
Alternatively, compounds represented by I can be prepared from protected alpha-amino aldehydes P2NHCH(R1)CHO. The required N-protected alpha-amino aldehydes are readily prepared from the respective N-protected alpha-amino acids P2NHCH(R1)CO2H, for example by reduction of the corresponiding esters with diisobutyl aluminum hydride, by reduction of the derived N-methyl, N-methoxy amides P2NHCH(R1)CONme(OMe) with LiAlH4 (Fehrentz and Castro, Synthesis 676 (1983)), or by reduction to the N-protected alpha-amino alcohol followed by oxidation with DMSO-(COCl)2 or SO3-pyridine (Review: Jurczak and Golebiowski, Chem Rev. 89. 149 (1989)). Generally the amino protecting group, P2, is t-Boc-, Cbz-, p-toluenesulfonyl or another standard protecting group chosen as well known in the peptide art. The synthesis of I proceeds via preparation of an intermediate P2NH(R1)CH(OH)CH(R2)COQ by aldol condensation with an acyl derivative, R2CH2COQ, under the conditions of Evans et al. (Evans, Ennis and Mathre, L
Am. Chem. Soc. 104, 1737-39 (1982); Review: Evans, Nelson and Taber, in Topics in Stereochemistry. Vol. 13; Allinger, Eliel, Wilen, eds.; Wiley, 1982; pp 1-114.), where Q is a chiral auxiliary used to direct the stereochemical outcome of the aldol reaction and is often the oxazolidinone derived from valinol, norephedrine, orphenylalanol. Hydroxyl protection with a protecting group P1 such as TBDMS or benzyl and subsequent hydrolytic removal of the group Q yields the intermediate P2NH(R1)CH(OP1)CH(R2)CO2H, which is subjected to Curtius rearrangement (Reviews: Banthoipe, in Patai, "The Chemistry of the Azido Group." pp. 397-405, Interscience Publishers, NY, 1971; Smith, Org. React. 3, 337-449 (1946)) to provide the compound P2NH(R1)CH(OP1)CH(R2)NH2 which is an unsymmetrically protected fσim of I. This route is versatile in that it allows access to all steroisomers of compounds I and to unsymmetrical compounds I, in which R1, R2 aredifferent and X1, X2 are different.
Synthesis of compounds represented by formula II is achieved by oxidation of the central hydroxyl group within the corresponding compounds I, as is well known in the art. Useful oxidation reagents include, but are not limited to, Jones Reagent, (COCl)2-DMSO, pyridinium dichromate, and pyridinium chlorochromate.
Either enantiomer of compounds of structures I and II can be prepared from the respective enantiomer of arabitol by the procedures shown in Schemes 1-2.

2) hydrogen,
3) C1-C6 alkyl, unsubstituted or substituted with one or more chlorine or fluorine atoms or hydroxyl groups, or

R" is a hydroxyl protecting group, and
R"' and R'v are hydrogen, an amino-protecting group or taken together are N2, which comprises
1) reacting a compound of the formula:
with a compound R'-Z, wherein Z is a moiety which renders R' nucleophilic, and R" is hydroxyl protecting group,
2) converting the resulting hydroxy groups to displaceable groups,
3) reacting the displaceable groups with a nitrogen nucleophile.
Hydroxyl protecting groups are those groups which are commonly used in the a mask the reactivity of the hydroxyl group, while also capable of being selectively removed to regenerate the hydroxyl group. Typically, the oxygen-hydrogen bond is replaced by oxygen-carbon bond. Useful hydroxyl protecting groups rre described in Greene, T.W. Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis. John Wiley & Sons, New York (1981), but many others are well known in the an. The arylmethyl ethers, substituted or unsubstituted, are one particularly useful class of groups for protecting the hydroxyl group. The benzyl protecting group, optionally with substituents upon the aryl ring, is useful.
Typically Z is hydrogen, an alkali metal, such as Li, Na or K, or an earth metal such as magnesium, or a transition metal, such as copper, aluminum, titanium, zinc or cadmium, or a species derived therefrom. Representative of R'-Z are optionally substituted alkyl, aryl or heteroaryl lithium, alkyl, aryl or heteroaryl magnesium halides (eg. Grignard reagents), lithium dialkyl cuprate, lithium diaryl cuprate, or the alkali metal salts of optionally substituted alkyl alcohols, phenols or benzyl alcohols. Lithium diphenyl cuprate is especially useful. The hydroxyls are converted to suitable displaceable groups, such as mesylate, tosylate, brosylate, benzoate, acetate and halide, by methods common in the art. The tosyl group is especially suitable and is formed by reacting the hydroxyl groups with tosyl chloride, for instance.
Suitable nitrogen nucleophiles are those which are able to react with a displaceble group. Unhindered organic amines or heterocyles, metal salts of amines, heterocycles or azide are useful. Generally an nitrogen containing group of the formula R'"R'vN-Z, wherein Z is as defined above and R'" and R'v are hydrogen, an amino-protecting group or taken together are N2 (eg. azide) are useful. A metal azide, such as sodium or potassium azide, is preferable. Subsequent reduction of the azido groups provides amino groups.
Particularly useful intermediate compounds of this invention are:
wherein R' and R" are as defined above.
The compounds of this invention are prepared by the solid phase technique of Merrifield (J. Am. Chem. Soc.85 2149 (1964), or preferably by solution methods known to the art. A combination of solid phase and solution synthesis may be used, as in a convergent synthesis in which di-, tri-, or tetra-peptide fragments may be prepared by solid phase synthesis and either coupled or further modified by solution synthesis. The methods of peptide synthesis generally set forth in J. M. Stewart and J. D. Young, "Solid Phase Peptide Synthesis". Pierce Chemical Company, Rockford, 11 (1984) or M. Bodonsky, Y.A. Klauser and M. A. Ondetti, "Peptide Synthesis" . John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, N.Y. (1976), or "The Peptides" gross and Meienhoffer, eds.; Acad. Press, 1979, Vols I-III, may be used to produce the peptides of this invention and are incorporated herein by reference.
Each amino acid or peptide is suitably protected as known in the peptide art. For example, the Boc- or carbobenzyloxy-group is preferred for protection of the amino group, especially at the α position. A benzyl group or suitable substituted benzyl group is used to protect the mercapto group of cysteine, or other thiol containing amino acids; or the hydroxyl of serine or threonine. The tosyl or nitro group may be used for protection of the guanidine of Arg or the imidazole of His, and a suitably substituted carbobenzyloxy group or benzyl group may be used for the hydroxyl group of Tyr, Ser or Thr, or the ε-amino group of lysine. Suitable substitution of the carbobenzyloxy or benzyl protecting groups is ortho and/or para substitution with chloro, bromo, nitro or methyl, and is used to modify the reactivity of the protective group. Cysteine and other sulfur-containing amino acids may also be protected by formation of a disulfide with a thioalkyl or thioaryl group. Except for the Boc group, the protective groups are, most conveniently, those which are not removed by mild acid treatment. These protective groups are removed by such methods as catalytic hydrogenation, sodium in liquid ammonia or HF treatment as known in the art.
If solid phase methods are used, the peptide is built up sequentially starting from the carboxy terminus and working toward the amino terminus of the peptide. Solid phase synthesis is begun by covalently attaching the C terminus of a protected amino acid to a suitable resin, such as a benzhydrylamine resin (BHA), methylbenzhydrylamine resin (MBHA) or chloromethyl resin (CMR), as is generally set forth in U.S. Patent No.
4,244,946. A BHA or MBHA support resin is used for the carboxy terminus of the product peptide is to be a carboxamide. A CMR support is generally used for the carboxy terminus if the produced peptide is to be a carboxyl group, although this may also be used to produce a carboxamide or ester.
Modification of the terminal amino group of the peptide is accomplished by alkylation or acetylation as is generally known in the art. These modifications may be caπied out upon the amino acid prior to incorporation into the peptide, or upon the peptide after it has been synthesized and the terminal amino group liberated, but before the protecting groups have been removed.
Typically, acetylation is carried out upon the free amino group using the acyl halide, anhydride or activated ester, of the corresponding alkyl acid, in the presence of a tertiary amine. Mono-alkylation is carried out most conveniently by reductive alkylation of the amino group with an appropriate aliphatic aldehyde or ketone in the presence of a mild reducing agent, such as lithium or sodium cyanoborohydride. Dialkylation as well as quatemization may be carried by treating the amino group with an excess of an alkyl halide in the presence of a base.
Solution synthesis of peptides is accomplished using conventional methods used to form amide bonds. Typically, a protected Boc-amino acid which has a free carboxyl group is coupled to a protected amino acid which has a free amino group using a suitable carbodiimide coupling agent, such as N, N' dicyclohexyl carbodiimide (DCC), optionally in the presence of catalysts such as 1-hydroxybenzotriazole (HOBT) and dimethylamino pyridine (DMAP). Other methods, such as the formation of activated esters, anhydrides or acid halides, of the free carboxyl of a protected Boc-amino acid, and subsequent reaction with the free amine of a protected amino acid, optionally in the presence of a base, are also suitable. For example, a protected Boc-amino acid or peptide is treated in an anhydrous solvent, such as methylene chloride or tetrahydrofuran (THF), in the presence of a base, such as N-methyl morpholine, or a trialkyl amine, with isobutyl chloroformate to form the mixed anhydride, which is subsequently reacted with the free amine of a second protected amino acid or peptide. The peptide formed by these methods may be deprotected selectively, using conventional techniques, at the amino or carboxy terminus and coupled to other peptides or amino acids using similar techniques. After the peptide has been completed, the protecting groups may be removed as hereinbefore described, such as by hydrogenation in the presence of a palladium or platinum catalyst, treatment with sodium in liquid ammonia, hydrofluoric acid, trifluoroacetic acid or alkali.
Esters are often used to protect the terminal carboxyl group of peptides in solution synthesis. They may be converted to carboxylic acids by treatment with an alkali metal hydroxide or carbonate, such as potassium hydroxide or sodium carbonate, in an aqueous alcoholic solution. The acids may be converted to other esters via an activated acyl intermediate as previously described.
The amides and substituted amides of this invention are prepared from carboxylic acids of the peptides in much the same manner. Thus, ammonia or a substituted amine may be reacted with an activated acyl intermediate of an amino-protected α-amino acid or oligopeptide to produce the amide. Use of coupling reagents, such as DCC, is convenient for forming substituted amides from the carboxylic acid itself and a suitable amine.
In addition, the methyl esters of this invention may be converted to the amides, or substituted-amides, directly by treatment with ammonia, or a substituted amine, in methanol solution. A methanol solution of the methyl ester of the peptide is saturated with ammonia and stirred in a pressurized reactor to yield the simple carboxamide of the peptides.
Procedures for the determination of the inhibition constant (Ki) by Dixon analysis are described in the art, e.g., in Dreyer, et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A.. 86, 9752-9756 (1989). A peptidolytic assay is employed using the substrate Ac-Arg-Ala-Ser-Gln-Asn-Tyr-Pro-Val-Val-NH2 and recombinant HIV protease as in Strieker, et al., Proteins.6,
134-154 (1989). The lower Ki value indicates a higher binding affinity.
Pharmaceutical compositions of the compounds of this invention, or derivatives thereof, may be formulated as solutions or lyophilized powders for parenteral
administration. Powders may be reconstituted by addition of a suitable diluent or other pharmaceutically acceptable carrier prior to use. The liquid formulation is generally a buffered, isotonic, aqueous solution. Examples of suitable diluents are normal isotonic saline solution, standard 5% dextrose in water or buffered sodium or ammonium acetate solution. Such formulation is especially suitable for parenteral administration, but may also be used for oral administration or contained in a metered dose inhaler or nebulizer for insufflation. It may be desirable to add excipient such as polyvinylpyrrolidone, gelatin, hydroxy cellulose, acacia, polyethylene glycol, mannitol, sodium chloride or sodium citrate. A preferred composition for parenteral administration may additionally be comprised of a quantity of the compound encapsulated in a liposomal carrier. The liposome may be formed by dispersion of the compounds in an aqueous phase with phospholipids, with or without cholesterol, using a variety of techniques, including conventional handshaking, high pressure extrusion, reverse phase evaporation and microfluidization. A suitable method of making such compositions is more fully disclosed in copending Application Serial No. 06/763,484 and is incorporated herein by reference. Such a carrier may be optionally directed toward its site of action by an immunoglobulin or protein reactive with the viral particle or infected cells. The choice of such proteins would of course be dependent upon the antigenic determinants of the infecting virus. An example of such a protein is the CD-4 T-cell glycoprotein, or a derivative thereof, such as sCD-4 (soluble CD-4), which is reactive with the glycoprotein coat of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Such proteins are disclosed in copending Application Serial No. 07/160,463, which is incorporated herein by reference. Similar targeting proteins could be devised, by methods known to the art, for other viruses and are considered within the scope of this invention.
Alternatively, these compounds may be encapsulated, tableted or prepared in a emulsion or syrup or oral administration. Pharmaceutically acceptable solid or liquid carriers may be added to enhance or stabilize the composition, or to facilitate preparation of the composition. Liquid carriers include syrup, peanut oil, olive oil, glycerin, saline and water. Solid carriers include starch, lactose, calcium sulfate dihydrate, terra alba, magnesium stearate or stearic acid, talc, pectin, acacia, agar or gelatin. The carrier may also include a sustained release material such as glycerol monostearate or glycerol distearate, alone or with a wax. The amount of solid carrier varies but, preferably, will be between about 20 mg to about 1 g per dosage unit The pharmaceutical preparations are made following the conventional techniques of pharmacy involving milling, mixing, granulating, and compressing, when necessary, for tablet forms; or milling, mixing and filling for hard gelatin capsule forms. When a liquid carrier is used, the preparation will be in the form of a syrup, elixir, emulsion or an aqueous or non-aqueous suspension. Such a liquid formulation may be administered directly p.o. or filled into a soft gelatin capsule.
For rectal administration, a pulverized powder of the compounds of this invention may be combined with excipient such as cocoa butter, glycerin, gelatin or polyethylene glycols and molded into a suppository. The pulverized powders may also be compounded with an oily preparation, gel, cream or emulsion, buffered or unbuffered, and administered through a transdermal patch.
This invention is also a method for treating viral infection, particularly infection by retroviruses, which comprises administering a compound of formula I to a patient infected with a susceptible virus. The method is particularly applicable to infection by the Human Immunodeficiency Virus, type 1. When the compounds of this invention are used to induce anti-viral activity in patients which are infected with susceptible viruses and require such treatment, the method of treatment comprises the administration orally, parenterally, bucally, trans-dermally, intravenously, intramuscularly, rectally or by insufflation, of an effective quantity of the chosen compound, preferably dispersed in a pharmaceutical cairier. Dosage units of the active ingredient are selected from the range of 0.05 to 50 mg/kg of body weight Dosage units will typically be from 50 to 1000 mg. These dosage units may be administered one to ten times daily for acute or chronic infection. The dosage will be readily deterimined by one skilled in the art and will depend upon the age, weight and condition of the patient, and the route of administration. Combination therapy as described in Eur. Pat. Appl. No. 337714 at pages 42-47 are included herein.

Following incubation at 37°C for several minutes, the reaction was initiated widi 0.001-0. lOmg purified HIV protease. Reaction mixtures (37°C) were quenched after 10-20 minutes with an equal volume of cold 0.6 N trichloroacetic acid, and, following centrifugation to remove precipitated material, peptidolysis products were analyzed by reverse phase HPLC (Beckman Ultrasphere ODS, 4.5 mm × 25 mm; mobile phase; 5-20% acetonitrile/H2O - .1% TFA 915 min.), 20% acetonitrile/H2O - .1% TFA (5 min) at 1.5 mL/min, detection at 220 nm. The elution positions of Ac-Arg-Ala-Ser-Gln-Asn-Tyr-Pro-Val-Val-NH2 (17-18 min) and Ac-Arg-Ala-Ser-Gln-Asn-Tyr (10-11 min) were confirmed with authentic material. Initial rates of Ac-Arg-Ala-Ser-Gln-Asn-Tyr formation were determined from integration of these peaks, and typically, die inhibitory properties of die synthetic compounds were determined from slope/intercept analysis of a plot of 1/v vs. [inhibitor] (Dixon analysis). Ki values resulting from this type of primary analysis are accurate for competitive inhibitors only, and under conditions in which die Michaelis constant of the substrate used is well-determined.
It is desirable for the compounds of mis invention to have Ki values less than 50 μM, preferably less than 10 μM and more preferably less than 1 μM.
Following the procedures set forth herein and die teachings of the foregoing examples the compounds set forth in the following Table can be prepared having the structure and die substituent groups as designated tiierein.
