TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to a novel pyrazole compound having an excellent inhibitory effect on protein kinases, in particular, JNK c-Jun amino-terminal kinase.

PRIOR ART

Mitogen-activated protein kinase (hereinafter, referred to as “MAPK”) signaling cascades are generally found in from yeast to human, and play a very important role in intracellular signal transduction pathways. As MAPK-related kinases in mammalian cells, in particular, three kinds of kinases are well known: extracellular signal-regulation kinase (ERK), p38 and c-Jun amino-terminal kinase (JNK; or also called as SAPK (=stress-activated protein kinase)). SAPK is a homologue of JNK found in rat, and its isoform group is known to have amino acid sequences of 90% or more homologous to the corresponding isoform group of JNK (Nature, 369, 156, 1994). In recent years, a number of activators involved with NAPK have been identified, which have demonstrated that pathways respectively activating ERK, p38 and JNK have different roles in terms of function. In particular, the JNK pathway is considered to be one of valuable intracellular signaling pathways from medical and pharmaceutical viewpoints because of the following reasons. JNK is activated, for example, by cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) or interleukin-1 (IL-1), or cell stresses such as heat shock, ultraviolet ray (UV), X-ray and the like, and is considered to be an important signal transduction pathway inducing not only cellular proliferation and differentiation but also apoptosis (cell death) [Science, 270, 1326, 1995.] JNK was initially discovered as a protein which phosphorylates Ser63 and Ser73 located at N-terminal of c-Jun (Nature, 353, 670, 1991), however, at present, JNK is known to phosphorylate a number of transcription factors such as ATF-2 and Elk-1 and regulate their activities (EMBO J., 15, 2760, 1996.) There are three kinds of JNKs: JNK1, JNK2 and JNK3. While JNK1 and JNK2 are expressed in most of tissues, JNK3 is expressed at high level especially in brain (Neuron, 14, 67, 1995; Neuron, 22, 667, 1999.) Analysis of JNK1 or JNK2 knockout mouse demonstrated that these JNKs have an important role in differentiation and activation of T cell (J. Exp. Med., 193, 317, 2001). Also, analysis of JNK1 knockout mouse suggested the importance of JNK1 in onset of metabolic disorders such as insulin resistance caused by obesity and type II diabetes (Nature, 420, 333, 2002). On the other hand, other report described that JNK3 knockout mouse showed resistance against seizure induced by kainic acid which is an excitatory amino acid receptor agonist, and that the apoptosis which would be observed subsequently in hippocampal neurons in normal mouse was not observed while in JNK3 knockout mouse (Nature 389, 865, 1997.) Since previous research using cultured neurons has proved the necessity of phosphorylation of c-Jun for induction of apoptosis by removal of neurotrophic factor (Neuron 14, 927, 1995; J. Neurosci. 18, 751, 1998), JNK seems to play an important role in inducing apoptosis of neurons. As for neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer disease and Parkinson disease, importance of apoptosis in the process of neurodegeneration has been noticed (Nature 407, 802, 2000), and investigation using model animals of these diseases (Proc Natl Acad Sci USA, 98, 10433, 2001; J. Neurosci. 22, 3376, 2002) and analysis using postmortem brain of patient (Neuron, 14, 67, 1995; J. Neurochem., 76, 435, 2001) have accumulated the results suggesting the possibility of involvement of JNK in neurodegeneration in Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease.
The following are known reports with regard to substances of low molecular weight having JNK inhibitory effect.

(10) Compounds represented by the formula (I¹⁰) having JNK inhibitory effect and the compound represented by the formula (I^10a) as a concrete embodiment (EP01/110957).
(11) Compounds represented by the formula (I¹¹) having JNK inhibitory effect and the compound represented by the formula (I^11a) as a concrete embodiment (WO01/91749).
On the other hand, compounds having pyrazole skeleton are found only in the report below.
(12) Compounds represented by the formula (I¹²) having JNK inhibitory effect and the compound represented by the formula (I^12a) as a concrete embodiment (WO02/10137).
As described above, JNK pathway is noticed as one of important mechanisms involved in activation of various cells and regulation of immuno cells by cytokines, or in apoptosis of neurons induced by various kinds of stress signals. Therefore, compounds having inhibitory effect on JNK pathway, especially on JNK protein kinase can be expected to be useful as therapeutic drugs for a variety of immunological diseases, inflammatory diseases, metabolic diseases, neurodegenerative diseases. On the other hand, ERK which belongs to MAPK to which JNK also belongs is known to play an important role in signal transduction of growth factors and neurotrophic factors, and especially in neurons, ERK is deeply concerned with survival and maintenance of neurons accomplished by neurotrophic factors such as Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and the like (Science, 286, 1358, 1999; J. Neurosci., 20, 5775, 2000.) This suggests the possibility of the ERK inhibitory effect to cancel out the useful effect which the compounds having inhibitory effect on JNK protein kinase are liable to exhibit, e.g., protective effect on neurons, so that a need for discovery of JNK-selective compounds not having ERK inhibitory effect exists. However, such excellent compounds having selective inhibitory effect on JNK protein kinase, while satisfying the points of pharmacological effect, dosage, safety and the like required for pharmaceutics have not been found yet.

Production Method 1

Compound (I) can be produced by converting aromatic ring compound 1 into a metal aryl with the use of alkyl lithium, lithium amide or the like, reacting the metal aryl with aryl aldehyde to render it alcohol 2, oxidizing alcohol 2 into ketone 3, and then subjecting ketone 3 to cyclization of indazole ring with the use of hydrazine. As the alkyl lithium to be used for converting aromatic ring compound 1 into a metal aryl, for example, N-butyllithium, sec-butyllithium, tert-butyllithium, phenyl lithium and the like are used. Additives such as diazabicyclo[2.2.0]octane, N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediamine, hexamethylphosphoramide and the like may also be added as is necessary. Further, as the lithium amide, for example, lithium diisopropylamide, lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide and the like are used. As the solvent, any solvents can be used in so far as they are not concerned with the reaction, and preferred examples of such solvent include, but are not limited to, ether-based solvents such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran or dioxane, dimethoxyethane, and the like, as well as benzene, toluene and the like. The reaction temperature is from −78° C. to room temperature. As the oxidizing reagent for oxidizing the alcohol of compound 2, for example, manganese dioxide, sulfur trioxide-pyridine complex, N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide, various kinds of chromic acid oxidizing reagents and the like can be used, and also Swern oxidation, M of fat oxidation and the like may be applied. As the solvent, any solvent can be used insofar as they are not concerned with the reaction, and examples of such solvent include hydrocarbon halides such as dichloromethane, chloroform and the like, as well as other ethyl acetate, acetonitrile, dimethyl sulfoxide, N,N-dimethylformamide and the like. The reaction temperature is usually from −78° C. to reflux temperature of the solvent. The reaction of cyclizing compound 3 with the use of hydrazine monohydrate may be carried out either in the absence of solvent or in the presence of solvent. Any solvents can be used insofar as they are not concerned with the reaction, and examples of such solvent include, but are not limited to, ether solvents such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane or dimethoxyethane, alcohol solvents such as methanol, ethanol or propanol, as well as pyridine, dimethyl sulfoxide, benzene, toluene and so on. The use amount of hydrazine monohydrate is from 2 to 20 equivalents with respect to the material. The reaction temperature is usually from 0° C. to reflux temperature of the solvent.

Production Method 2

Compound 2 can also be produced in accordance with Production method 2. Aromatic ring compound 1 is made into a metal aryl in accordance with Production method 1, which is then reacted with formylation agent, to thereby produce compound 4. Examples of formylation agent include N,N-dimethylformamide, N-formylpiperidine, methylphenylformamide and so on. As the reaction solvent, any solvents can be used insofar as they are not concerned with the reaction, and examples of which include, but are not limited to, ether solvents such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, dioxane, dimethoxyethane and the like, as well as benzene, toluene and the like.
