Description

PROCESS FOR THE PREPARATION OF SUBSTITUTED N-(5-BENZENESULFONYL-1 H-INDAZOL-3-YL)- BENZAMIDES
The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of substituted N-(5-benzenesulfonyl-1 H-indazol-3-yl)- benzamides and to the useful intermediate compounds of such process.
WO2008/074749 describes and claims such substituted indazole derivatives, processes for their preparation, pharmaceutical compositions comprising them and their use as therapeutic agents, particularly in the treatment of cancer and cell proliferation disorders.
Such compounds are endowed with protein kinase inhibiting activity and, more particularly, IGF-1 R or ALK inhibiting activity. More specifically, the compounds prepared according to this invention are useful in the treatment of a variety of cancers and of cell proliferative disorders. The compounds may be also active as inhibitors of other protein kinases and thus be effective in the treatment of diseases associated with other protein kinases.
These compounds, and analogues thereof, can be prepared according to a known chemical process comprising, as the key step to build the N-(5-benzenesulfonyl-1 H-indazol-3-yl)-benzamide core, the coupling between an activated benzoic acid, such as, for example, a benzoyl chloride, and a 5-benzenesulfonyl-1 H-indazol-3-ylamine scaffold. Such scaffold can be either unprotected or, more conveniently, 1 -protected. In particular, when the 1- protective group is trityl, its activating effect, through electron donation, enhances the reactivity of the 3-amino group, making it possible to efficiently carry out couplings with less reactive aroyl chlorides, such as, for example, benzoyl chlorides that bear bulky substituents at position 2. For reference, this process is described in the above mentioned patent application WO2008/074749.
In this respect, we have now surprisingly found that substituted N-(5-benzenesulfonyl-1 H-indazol-3-yl)-benzamide derivatives can be advantageously prepared in high yields and purity according to a synthetic process that is shorter, requires a lower number of chromatographic purifications and is suitable for plant scale production, which comprises, as the key steps, the coupling of an activated benzoic acid with a 5-phenylsulfanyl-1 H-indazol-3- ylamine scaffold and the subsequent oxidation of the phenylsulfanyl residue to the corresponding benzenesulfonyl residue.
As a matter of fact, the 3-amino group of a 5-phenylsulfanyl-1 H-indazol-3-ylamine is electron-richer than that of a 5-benzenesulfonyl-1 H-indazol-3-ylamine and the introduction of an activating 1-trityl group is not required in order to efficiently carry out a coupling with benzoyl chlorides, even with those bearing bulky substituents at position 2. Moreover, 5-phenylsulfanyl-1 H-indazol-3-ylamines can be prepared according to a one-step procedure starting from the commercially available 5-iodo-1 H-indazol-3-ylamine.
Therefore, it is a first object of the present invention a process for preparing a substituted N-(5-benzenesulfonyl- 1 H-indazol-3-yl)-benzamide of formula (I):

According to step a), the coupling of the 5-iodo-1 H-indazol-3-ylamine of formula (II) with a benzenethiol of formula (III) to give a compound of formula (IV) is performed under catalysis of a copper (II) or, more preferably, of a copper (I) salt, for instance copper (I) iodide, copper (I) bromide, copper (I) chloride or copper (I) acetate, and in the presence of a base, such as, for example, sodium carbonate, potassium carbonate or potassium phosphate tribasic.

Analogous transformations were described, for instance, in Organic Letters 2002, 4, 3517.
According to step b), a compound of formula (VI) can be obtained by reacting a compound of formula (IV) with a compound of formula (V) in a variety of ways and experimental conditions, which are widely known in the art for acylation reactions. Preferably, a compound of formula (V), wherein W is hydroxy, is converted into its corresponding acid chloride, wherein W is chlorine, in the presence of thionyl chloride or oxalyl chloride, in a suitable solvent, such as toluene, dichloromethane, chloroform, diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, 1 ,4-dioxane, N,N- dimethylformamide or a mixture thereof, at a temperature ranging from about -10°C to reflux and for a period of time varying from about 1 h to about 96 h.

A suitable solvent may also be added, such as toluene, dichloromethane, chloroform, diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran and 1 ,4-dioxane.

According to step c), the conversion of a compound of formula (VI) to give a compound of formula (VII) can be accomplished in a variety of ways, according to conventional methods for oxidizing sulfides to sulfones. Preferably, this reaction is carried out in a suitable solvent such as, for instance, methanol, ethanol, tert-butanol, water, tetrahydrofuran, 1 ,4-dioxane, dichloromethane, acetonitrile, or a mixture thereof, in the presence of a suitable oxidizing agent, such as, for instance, 3-chloroperbenzoic acid, hydrogen peroxide, urea hydrogen peroxide, potassium peroxymonosulfate (Oxone™). Typically, the reaction is carried out at a temperature ranging from -78 °C to reflux and for a time varying from about 30 min to about 96 h.
According to step d) of the process, a compound of formula (VII) wherein R5, R6 and Hal are as defined above and X is -N(CHR1 R2)COCF3 is transformed into a compound of formula (VIII) by removal of the trifluoroacetyl group, according to conventional methods.
