Description
SPECIFICATION
Anthracycline glycosides
The invention relates to anthracycline glycosides, to methods for their preparation and to pharmaceutical compositions containing them.
The invention provides anthracycline glycosides having the general formula I
wherein R represents a hydrogen atom or a hydroxy group and X represents a hydrogen atom or a trifluoracetyl group; and further provides their pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts.
The anthracycline glycosides I may be prepared according to the invention by a process comprising condensing 1 -hydroxy-4-demethoxy-1 1 -deoxydaunomycinone II
with 1-chloro-N,O-di(trifluoroacetyl)-daunosamine in the presence of silver trifluoromethanesulphonate, removing the O-trifluoroacetyl group by methanolysis, optionally removing the N-trifluoroacetyl group by mild alkaline hydrolysis, and optionally brominating the resultant daunorubicin derivative (I: R=H, X=H or COCK3) and treating the resultant 14-bromo-derivative with aqueous sodium formate.
The condensation of the racemic anthracyclinone II gives an easily separable mixture of protected anthracycline o-glycosides 7S,9S and 7R,9R following the method described in US Patent Specification No.
4107323. The bromination and sodium formate treatment is carried out in accordance with the method described in US Patent Specification No. 3803124.
1 -Hydroxy-4-demethoxy-1 1 -deoxy-daunomycinone II is a new anthracyclinone, and two synthetic routes have been developed in order to obtain it. They are illustrated in the following Reaction Schemes A and
B. That set forth in Reaction Scheme A gives both the anthracyclinone II and 6,7-dideoxycarminomycinone 14, a known compound (see British Patent Specification No. 8415754); that set forth in Reaction
Scheme B, on the contrary, gives only the anthracyclinone II. Both routes are based on the nucleophilic attack of 2-lithio-1,4,5-trimethoxy-naphthalene 6, precursor of the C and D rings of the tetracycle, on the ester carbonyl group of a cyclohexane derivative, precursor of the A and B rings.
In the first synthetic route cis 1,2-dimethoxycarbonyl-4-acetyl cyclohexene 1 [see S Penco et al. Heterocycles 21, 21, (1984)] is converted to 3, a regiochemical mixture of the monoester of p-nitrophenol. The pnitrophenyl ester is necessary for the coupling reaction with 6: indeed, while the reaction between 6 and 1 afforded only traces of the coupling product, the same reaction using the new ester 4 affords 7 in about 50% yield and the attack occurs on the p-nitrophenyl ester. In the second synthetic route, trans 1,2-dimethoxycarbonyl-4-ethylidene-cyclohexene 16 is converted to the key intermediate 3-lactone 20 which is coupled with 6 in a regiochemical fashion to give 21 (the attack is exclusively on the ester carbonyl group).
Scheme A
Scheme 8
The Reaction Scheme A is now described in more detail. Compound 1 is hydrolyzed with dilute alkali to give the corresponding monoester 2, as a regiochemical mixture. This is treated with p-nitrophenol and DCCI to give compound 3. Then the carbonyl protection is effected with ethylene glycol and pyridinium p-toluene-sulphonate to give 4. The coupling reaction between 3-lithio-1,4,5-trimethoxynaphthalene 6, obtained from the known 3-bromo-derivative 5 [see Barber, H, Rapoport, J Org Chem 44, 2153 (1979)] and compound 4 affords compound 7. After deketalisation and catalytic reduction of the double bond, compound 8 is obtained. The benzylic carbonyl group reduction is performed with a pyridine:borane complex in trifluoroacetic acid with the simultaneous reduction of the aliphatic keto group to a secondary alcohol.Hydrolysis of the ester to the corresponding acid gives compound 9 which is transformed to the tetracyclic system 10 by treatment with trifluoroacetic anhydride and trifluoroacetic acid. Oxidation of the alcohol with a triethylamine: sulphur trioxide complex gives the corresponding ketone 11 which is converted to the anthraquinone 12 via oxidative demethylation with aluminium trichioride. The introduction of the 9-hydroxy group is accomplished with enol acetate formation, epoxidation, and basic hydrolysis to give a mixture of (+) 1-hydroxy-4-demethoxy-7,11-dideoxydaunomycinone 13 and (t) 4-demethyl-6,7-dideoxydaunomycinone 14 which are easily separated by silica gel chromatography.Finally the introduction of the 7-hydroxy group is performed by benzylic bromination followed by solvolysis.
Alternatively, following the Reaction Scheme B, the acidic permanganate oxidation of compound 16 gives the hydroxy ketone as a stereochemical mixture which is treated with p-toluenesulphonic acid and toluene under reflux to give a mixture of y-lactone 17 and b-lactone 18. Lactone 18, after silica gel separation, is treated with alumina supported sodium borohydride to give the alcohol 19. After protection of the alcohol as the tetrahydropyranyl ether, the compound 20 obtained is coupled with the lithium salt 6 in a regiochemical fashion to give 21 which is transformed to the anthracyclinone II following the steps already described for Scheme A.
The anthracyclinone glycosides I have antitumour properties, and accordingly the invention further provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising an anthracycline glycoside i or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof in admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable diluent or carrier.
The invention is illustrated by the following Examples.

A solution of 145 mg (0.4 mM) of 1-chloro-N,O-di(trifluoroacetyl)-daunosamine in 4 ml of anhydrous dichloromethane was added to the first solution at 15"C, followed by a solution of 80 mg (0.3 mM) of silver trifluoromethane sulphonate in 4 ml of anhydrous diethyl ether. After 20 minutes symcollidine was added and the reaction mixture was left for an additional 20 minutes. A saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution was added and the stirring was continued for 30 minutes. The two phases were separated, and the organic layer washed with water and dried over anhydrous sodium sulphate.
The residue, obtained by evaporating off the solvent, was suspended in 60 ml of methanol and kept overnight at 4oC. After filtration of the unreacted 11 (40 mg recovered), the filtrate was chromatographed on Kieselgel giving the title compound (5 mg of 7S,9S and 5 mg of 7R,9R).

Preparation of 1-hydroxy-4demethoxy-11-deoxy-daunorubicin hydrochloride (I: R=X=H)
10 ml of aqueous 0.1N sodium hydroxide solution was added to 6 mg of 7S,9S-1-hydroxy-4-demethoxy-11-deoxy-N-trifluoroacetyl-daunorubicin in 2 ml of acetone under nitrogen at 0 C. After stirring at 0CC for 2 hours the pH was lowered to 4.5 and neutral products were extracted with dichloromethane.
The acid water layer was adjusted to pH 8.5 and extracted with dichloromethane. The organic solution was reduced to a small volume, and treated with a few drops of methanolic hydrogen chloride. The product was precipitated by addition of diethyl ether. After filtration, 4 mg of the title compound was obtained.
