Description

  • This application is a Continuation of U.S. application Ser. No. 10/598,116 (filed Aug. 17, 2006), which is a US National Stage under 35 U.S.C §371 of International Application No. PCT/GB2005/000567 (filed Feb. 17, 2005),which claims priority under 35 U.S.C. §119(a)-(d) to Application No. GB 0403744.6 filed on Feb. 20, 2004.
  • The present invention relates to an improved chemical process for preparing intermediates. Certain of these intermediates are useful in the manufacture of compounds which are useful in the treatment of, for example, cancer, pain and cardiovascular diseases in a warm-blooded animal such as man, particularly compounds which possess endothelin receptor antagonist activity.
  • In particular, the present invention relates to a chemical process for preparing [4-(1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)phenyl]boronic acid which is used in the manufacture of N-(3-methoxy-5-methylpyrazin-2-yl)-2-(4-[1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]phenyl)pyridine-3-sulphonamide which compound is disclosed as Example 36 of International Patent Application WO96/40681. This compound possesses endothelin receptor antagonist activity, and accordingly is useful whenever such antagonist activity is desired, such as for research tools within pharmacological, diagnostic, and related studies or in the treatment of diseases and medical conditions including, but not limited to hypertension, pulmonary hypertension, cardiac or cerebral circulatory disease and renal disease. In addition this compound is also useful in the treatment of cancer and pain, in a warm-blooded animal such as man.
  • A route for preparing N-(3-methoxy-5-methylpyrazin-2-yl)-2-(4-[1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]phenyl)pyridine-3-sulphonamide is disclosed in International Patent Applications WO 96/40681 and WO 98/40332. The route involves the use of the compound N-(isobutoxycarbonyl)-2-(4-methoxycarbonylphenyl)-N-(3-methoxy-5-methylpyrazin-2-yl)pyridine-3-sulphonamide as an intermediate with the formation of the 1,3,4-oxadiazole in the 4-position of the phenyl group occurring at the end of the synthesis. This existing route is satisfactory for the synthesis of relatively small amounts of N-(3-methoxy-5-methylpyrazin-2-yl)-2-(4-[1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]phenyl)pyridine-3-sulphonamide but is a linear rather than convergent synthesis, involving the isolation of a substantial number of intermediates. As such, the overall yield of this synthesis is not high.
  • Furthermore, as the heteroaryl moiety at the 4-position of the phenyl group is formed as the last step, it is necessary to undergo a linear synthesis approach with the rest of the molecule made first. This is clearly undesirable when substituents in distinct parts of the molecule need to be varied in order to investigate structure-activity relationships. It would be highly desirable if a convergent approach to the synthesis of this type of compound could be devised. This would also be of significant benefit in the efficiency of manufacturing large scale amounts of N-(3-methoxy-5-methylpyrazin-2-yl)-2-(4-[1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]phenyl)pyridine-3-sulphonamide.
  • We have now devised a much improved process for the manufacture of heteroaryl-phenyl boronic acids, in particular, [4-(1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)phenyl]boronic acid. The process allows exploitation of a more convergent route to N-(3-methoxy-5-methylpyrazin-2-yl)-2-(4-[1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]phenyl)pyridine-3-sulphonamide than the previously described route and allows a reduction in the number of intermediates that must be isolated. This provides significant advantages of time and cost of manufacture.
  • In a further aspect of the present invention one of the heteroaryl-phenyl boronic acids, [4-(1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)phenyl]boronic acid, produced according to the present invention, is used to prepare N-protected N-(3-methoxy-5-methylpyrazin-2-yl)-2-(4-[1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]phenyl)pyridine-3-sulphonamides, in particular N-(isobutoxycarbonyl) N-(3-methoxy-5-methylpyrazin-2-yl)-2-(4-[1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]phenyl)pyridine-3-sulphonamide. These intermediates may then be deprotected to form N-(3-methoxy-5-methylpyrazin-2-yl)-2-(4-[1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]phenyl)pyridine-3-sulphonamide.
  • The process for the manufacture of heteroaryl-phenyl boronic acids of the present invention utilises the increased acidity of the heteroaryl ring proton, and involves the sequential use of two bases. Initial attempts at adding one equivalent of a base to a heteroaryl-phenyl bromo compound in order to induce halogen-metal exchange led to competing deprotonation of the heteroaryl ring. On quenching with a borate ester, a negligible yield of the desired product was achieved, together with starting material and by-products. The present inventors found, surprisingly, that the sequential use of two bases leads to good yields of the desired heteroaryl-phenyl boronic acids. In the process of the present invention the heteroaryl ring is initially deprotonated with a (typically) “weaker” base, before inducing halogen-metal exchange with a (typically) “stronger” base.
  • According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a process for the preparation of a compound of the Formula I
  • Figure US20100094010A1-20100415-C00002
  • wherein,
    • X1 is selected from O, NR1 or S; and
    • X2 is selected from CH or N;
    • wherein R1 is a nitrogen-protecting group,
    • which comprises:—
    • the sequential reaction of a compound of the Formula II
  • Figure US20100094010A1-20100415-C00003
  • with,
  • (i) methyl- or an optionally substituted aryl-lithium; and then
  • (ii) n-butyl-, s-butyl-, t-butyl- or n-hexyl-lithium; and then
  • (iii) a borate ester.
  • For process steps (i), (ii) and (iii), the reactions may conveniently be carried out in an inert solvent or diluent or an ethereal solvent such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, diethoxymethane, 1,2-dimethoxyethane or 1,4-dioxan. Thus, for example, the reaction may be carried out by sequentially treating 2-(4-bromophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole with 4-methylphenyllithium, followed by n-hexyllithium, and finally triisopropylborate in a suitable solvent or diluent, for example, an ethereal solvent such as tetrahydrofuran, at a temperature in the range, for example, −90 to −50° C., more particularly −70 to −55° C., conveniently at or near −70° C.
  • Optionally the heteroaryl-phenyl bromo compound of Formula II can be charged to a solution of the first base to enable deprotonation, followed by the addition of the second base to induce transmetallation. This method although slightly less efficient in yield and quality does have advantages in cases where the first base must be generated in situ due to lack of stability at ambient temperatures. In this case only one cryogenic vessel is required to complete the processing.
  • The molar ratios of the reagents used in process steps (i), (ii), and (iii), are preferably in the range from 1.0-1.5: 1.0-1.5: 2.1-3 respectively, but more preferably in the range 1.06-1.3: 1.07-1.1: 2.2-2.3 respectively. Conveniently, the lithiated intermediates formed during the conversion of compounds of the Formula II to compounds of Formula I are not isolated as such but are each prepared and used as a solution in an organic solvent. Thereby, compounds of Formula I may be manufactured from compounds of Formula II in a one-pot procedure.

After a further 45 min the mixture was filtered through a 1 μm glass fibre filter paper and the aqueous phase separated off. The reaction flask and filter cake was washed with toluene (22 ml). The toluene wash was used to re-extract the aqueous phase and the organic layers were combined. These contained the title compound (22.8 g, 90%) which was not isolated.
    • EXAMPLE 9 N-(Isobutoxycarbonyl) N-(3-methoxy-5-methylpyrazin-2-yl)-2-(4-[1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]phenyl)pyridine-3-sulphonamide
  • To a nitrogen purged 150 ml multi necked flask equipped with an overhead stirrer was charged isobutyl [(2-chloropyridin-3-yl)sulfonyl](3-methoxy-5-methylpyrazin-2-yl)carbamate (7.75 g), [4-(1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)phenyl]boronic acid (4.29g), isopropanol (21 ml), water (49 ml) and 3,3′,3″-phosphinidyne tris(benzenesulphonic acid) trisodium salt 30% w/w aq sol (2.88 g). Agitation was started and palladium acetate (0.114 g) was added after 10 minutes. Potassium fluoride (2.48 g) was added and the temperature was adjusted to 80° C. After 5 h toluene (49 ml) was added and the temperature adjusted to 60° C. After a further 10 min the mixture was filtered through a 1 μm glass fibre filter paper and the aqueous phase separated off. The organic phase contained the title compound (7.36 g, 83%) which was not isolated.
