ALPHA SUBSTITUTEP CARBOXYLIC ACIDS ÀS PPAR MODULATORS
Backqround of The Invention
This invention relates to alpha substituted carboxylic acids that modulate 5 the activities of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR), preferably twoor more of PPAR-a, PPAR-δ, or PPAR-γ, enabling them to be useful in modulationof blood glucose and the increase of insulin sensitivity in mammals. This inventionalso relates to treatment of PPAR related disorders, such as diabètes,dyslipidemia, obesity and inflammatory disorders. 10 Peroxisome proliferators are a structurally diverse group of compounds which, when administered to rodents, elicit dramatic increases in the size andnumber of hepatic and rénal peroxisomes, as well as concomitant increases in thecapacity of peroxisomes to metabolize fatty acids via increased expression of theenzymes required for the β-oxidation cycle. Chemicals included in this group are 15 the fibrate class of hypolipidermic drugs, herbicides, and phthalate plasticizers(Reddy and Lalwani, Crû. Rev. Toxicol., 12:1-58 (1983)). Peroxisome proliférationcan also be elicited by dietary or physiological factors such as a high-fat diet andcold acclimatization. lnsight into the mechanism whereby peroxisome proliferators exert their 20 pléïotropie effects was provided by the identification of a member of the nudearhormone receptor superfamily activated by these Chemicals (Isseman and Green,Nature, 347-645-650 (1990)). This receptor, termed PPAR-α, was subsequentlyshown to be activated by a variety of medium and long-chain fatty acids and tostimulate expression of the genes encoding rat acyl-CoA oxidase and hydratase- 25 dehydrogenase (enzymes required for peroxisomal β-oxidation), as well às rabbitcytochrome P450 4A6, a fatty acid Q-hydroxylase. PPAR-α activâtes transcription by binding to DNA sequence éléments,termed peroxisome proliferator response éléments (PPRE), as a heterodimer withthe retinoid X receptor. The retinoid X receptor is activated by 9-cis retinoic acid 30 (see Kliewer, et al., Nature, 358:771-774 (1992), Gearing, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad.Sci. USA, 90:1440-1444 (1993), Keller, étal., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 90:2160-2164 (1993), Heyman, et al., Cell, 68:397-405 (1992), and Levin, et al., Nature,355:359-361 (1992)). Since the PPAR-a-RXR complex can be activated byperoxisome proliferators and/or 9-cis retinoic acid, the retinoid and fatty acid 35 signaling pathways are seen to converge in modulating lipid metabolism.
Since the discovery of PPAR-α, additional isoforms of PPAR hâve been identified, e.g., PPAR-δ, or PPAR-γ, which are spatially dHTerentîally expressed.Each PPAR receptor shows a different pattern of tissue expression, and .13157 : -2- differences in activation by structurally diverse compounds. PPAR-γ, for instance,is expressed most abundantiy in adipose tissue and at lower tevels in skeletalmuscle, heart, liver, intestine, kidney, vascular endothélial and smooth muscle cellsas well as macrophages. Two isoforms of PPAR^y exist, identified as y, and y2,respectively. PPAR-ymediates adipocyte signalling, lipid storage, and fatmetabolism. Evidence gathered to date support the conclusion that PPAR-γ is theprimary, and perhaps the only, molecular target mediating the insulin sensitizingaction of one class of antidiabetic agents, the thiazolidine 2,4 diones.
In a monotherapeutic or combination therapy context, new and establishedoral antidiabetic agents are still considered to hâve non-uniform and even limitedeffectiveness. The effectiveness of oral antidiabetic thérapies may be limited, inpart, because of poor or limited glycémie control, or poor patient compliance due tounacceptable side effects. These side effects include edema, weight gain, or evenmore serious complications. For instance, hypoglycémie is observed in somepatients taking sulfonylureas. Metfomnin, a substituted biguanide, can causediarrhea and gastrointestinal discomfort. Finally, edema, weight gain, and in somecases, hepatoxicity, hâve been linked to the administration of some thiazolidine 2,4dione antidiabetic agents. Combination therapy using two or more of the aboveagents is common, but generally only leads to incrémental improvements inglycémie control.
As a resuit, there is a need for antidiabetic agents that display combinedPPAR-α and PPAR-γ activation which should lead to the discovery of efficaciousglucose and triglycéride lowering drugs that hâve great potential in the treatment oftype 2 diabètes and the metabolic syndrome (i.e., impaired glucose tolérance,insulin resistancem hyoertriglyceridemia and/or obesity).

Theactivated complex was allowed to form over approximately ten minutes, at whichpoint césium carbonate (414 mg, 1.27 mmol) and the appropriate alcohol (0.956 13157 . 153 mmol) were added. The mixture was heated to 115 °C and stirred at this température for approximatety 12-18 hours. The mixture was cooled to roomtempérature and filtered through a pad of silica. The filter pad was washed with 2-3 aliquots of ethyl acetate and the combined organic filtrâtes were combined and 5 concentrated in vacuo. The resulting residue was either purified by flashchromatography, or subjected to the general hydrolysis procedure.

Phosphorous tribromide (100 mmol, 27.1 g, 2.0 eq.) was added carefuliy to 2-chloro-5-hydroxymethyl pyridine (50.0 mmol, 7.18 g, 1.0 eq.). The pyridineclumped together and the mixture was heated to 160 °C. Within 5 minutes of 10 stirring at >150 °C the mixture went very dark in color with gas évolution. Themixture was stirred at this same température for approximately 2.5 hours at whichpoint it was cooled to room température. The mixture was cooled further to 0 °Cwhereupon saturated sodium bicarbonate was added very cautiously (highlyexothermicl). As foaming became less vigorous, ice was added to the mixture until 15 foaming subsided. Solid sodium bicarbonate was then carefuliy added to achieve a pH of ~ 8-9. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate and the organic layer was washed with brine and dried over anhydrous magnésium sulfate.
Concentrated in vaeuo to afford a dark solid. This matériel was dissolved in a 13157 . 155 minimal amounî of DCM and purified using a Biotage Sp4 65i over a gradientof 0 - 100 % ethyl acetate in hexanes to afford the title compound as a pale yellowsolid (5.57 g, 44%).

Préparation of dimethyl f(6-bromopvridin-3-vDmethyl1(methoxy)malonate
To a slurry of potassium t-butoxide (46.6 mmol, 5.22 g, 1.3 eq.) in anhydrous DMF(250 mL) cooled to 0 °C was added methoxy dimethylmalonate (46.6 mmol, 7.55 g,1.3 eq.) via syringe in small portions. The enolate was allowed to form overapproximately 30 minutes at which point 2-bromo-5-(bromomethyl)pyridine wasadded portionwise. The reaction mixture was allowed to warm slowly to roomtempérature over 3 hours. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl ether andtransferred to a separatory funnel containing saturated ammonium chloride. Thelayers were shaken and separated and the organic layer was washed with water.The organic layer was then dried over anhydrous magnésium sulfate andconcentrated in vacuo. The yellow oil obtained was purified on a Biotage Sp4 65iover a gradient of 0 - 100 % ethyl acetate in hexanes to afford a colorless oil thatsolidified on standing (12.1 g, quant.)

To a solution of dimethyl [(6-bromopyridin-3-yl)methyl](methoxy)malonate (3.55mmol, 1.18 g, 1.0 eq.) in anhydrous DMF (2 mL) was added lithium bromide (3.20mmol, 0.278 g, 0.9 èq.) foliowed by water (3.55 mmol, 0.064 g, 1.0 eq,). Thesolution was placed in a oil bath preheated to 165 °C. Rapid gas évolutioncommenced. Bubble formation ceased within 30 minutes and LC/MS of thereaction mixture at this time indicated reaction was complété. Cooled to room 13157 . 15b température and diluted with water. Extracted aqueous layer with ethyl ether(4x 25 ml). Combined organic layers and washed with brine.
