CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION
This application claims the priority of U.S. Provisional Application Serial No.
62/093,645 filed December 18, 2014 which is herein incorporated by reference in its entirety.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a process for preparing halogenated azaindole compounds which are used in obtaining HIV attachment inhibitor compounds useful as antivirals. In particular, the invention provides methods of making the piperazine prodrug compound identified as l-benzoyl-4-[2-[4-methoxy-7-(3-methyl-lH-l,2,4-triazol-l-yl)-l- [(phosphonooxy)methyl]-lH-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridin-3-yl]-l,2-dioxoethyl]-piperazine, as well as certain intermediates thereof. The invention also relates to the compounds produced by the processes herein.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION HIV-1 (human immunodeficiency virus -1) infection remains a major medical problem, with tens of millions of people still infected worldwide at the end of 2011. The number of cases of HIV and AIDS (Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome) has risen rapidly. In 2005, for example, approximately 5 million new infections were reported and 3.1 million people died from AIDS. Despite continued advances in HIV treatment options, the development of new antiretroviral drugs and regimens continues to represent an important area of unmet medical need due to long-term tolerability concerns and the emergence of viral strains resistant to current therapies. To date, the approved therapies to treat HIV infection fall into 4 general classes: (1) reverse-transcriptase inhibitors, (2) protease inhibitors, (3) integrase inhibitors and (4) entry inhibitors. Examples of available drugs for the treatment of HIV include nucleoside reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibitors or approved single pill combinations: zidovudine (or AZT or RETROVIR®), didanosine (or VIDEX®), stavudine (or ZERIT®), lamivudine (or 3TC or EPIVIR®), zalcitabine (or DDC or HIVID®), abacavir succinate (or ZIAGEN®), Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate salt (or VIREAD®), emtricitabine (or FTC or EMTRIVA®), COMBIVIR® (contains -3TC plus AZT), TRIZIVIR® (contains abacavir, lamivudine, and zidovudine), EPZICOM® (contains abacavir and lamivudine), TRUVADA® (contains VIREAD® and EMTRIVA®); non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors: nevirapine (or

The identification of potent, orally active antiretrovirals with a unique mechanism of action led to HIV attachment inhibitors a novel subclass of antiviral compounds that bind to the HIV surface glycoprotein gpl20, and interfere with the interaction between the surface protein gpl20 and the host cell receptor CD4. Thus, they prevent HIV from attaching to the human CD4 T-cell, and block HIV replication in the first stage of the HIV life cycle. The properties of HIV attachment inhibitors have been improved in an effort to obtain compounds with maximized utility and efficacy as antiviral agents.
One HIV attachment inhibitor compound, in particular, has now shown considerable prowess against HIV. This compound is identified as l-(4-benzoyl- piperazin- 1 -y l)-2- [4-methoxy-7-(3-methy l-[ 1 ,2,4] triazol- 1 -y 1)- 1 H-py rralo [2,3 -c] pyridine-3-yl] -ethane- 1,2-di one, and is set forth and described in U.S. 7,354,924, which is incorporated herein in its entirety: The compound is represented by the formula below:
Figure imgf000003_0001
The above compound is the parent compound of the prodrug known as 1-benzoyl- 4-[2- [4-methoxy-7-(3 -methyl- 1H- 1 ,2,4-triazol - 1 -y 1)- 1 - [(phosphonooxy )methy 1] - 1H- pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridin-3-yl]-l,2-dioxoethyl]-piperazine. It is set forth and described in U.S. Patent No. 7,745,625, which is incorporated by reference herein it its entirety. The compound is represented by the formula below:
Figure imgf000004_0001
Various methods for making this prodrug compound have been set forth, including those detailed in the '625 reference. In particular, the '625 reference includes various methods for acylation, alkylation and phosphorylation. Another patent reference, U.S. Patent No. 8,436,168 entitled "Methods of Making HIV Attachment Inhibitor
Prodrug Compound and Intermediates", also details various procedures for making the piperazine prodrug compound. These include a multi-step process which uses the
compound
Figure imgf000004_0002
tarting material, which is subsequently brominated, and then nitrated. Further on, a triazolyl moiety is added to the compound before further attaching the piperazine moiety separated by dual carbonyl groups. Yet another patent reference, U.S. Patent No. 8,889,869 filed February 6, 2013, entitled "Methods for the Preparation of HIV Attachment Inhibitor Piperazine Prodrug Compound", also details procedures for making the compound. These include a multi-step process which uses the compound N- sulfonylated pyrrole as a starting material, which is subsequently subjected to a Friedel- Crafts acylation reaction, Pictet-Spengler cyclization, two oxidation reactions followed by bromination, deprotection and a second Friedel-Crafts acylation. Further on, the piperazine moiety is incorporated by amidation of the dual carbonyl groups followed by the copper catalyzed reaction to install the triazolyl moiety. What is now needed in the art are new methods of making the halogenated azaindole compounds so as to prepare piperazine prodrug compounds which are useful against HIV. The methods should be economical and also be able to produce the halogenated azaindole in high yield and selectivity.

7-Bromo-4-methoxy-lH-pyrrolo[2,3-c]pyridine hydrochloride monohydrate (Id), CH2CI2 (2660 L), Compound la (190 kg, 1.0 equiv) and phthalic anhydride (127.3 kg, 1.3 equiv) were charged to an 8000 L glass lined vessel, and the resulting mixture was heated to 35 °C. A 30% w/w aqueous solution of hydrogen peroxide (76.8 kg, 1.2 equiv) was added via pump over 2 hours. The resulting suspension was stirred at 35-37 °C for an additional 2 hours, then sampled and analyzed by HPLC to determine the reaction progress. Once the oxidation reaction was deemed complete, the mixture was cooled to 10 °C. The reaction was quenched by controlled addition of a solution of sodium sulfite (85.5 kg, 1 equiv) in water (1330 kg) such that the internal temperature remained below 20 °C. The resulting biphasic mixture was stirred vigorously at 20 °C for 2 hours to ensure complete reduction of any residual oxidant. A solution of K3PO4 (353 kg) in water (1330 kg) was then added to the quenched reaction mixture and the biphasic mixture stirred at 20 °C for 2 hours. The top aqueous phase was discarded and the lower product-rich organic phase was washed with water (1330 kg). The bottom product-rich organic phase was transferred to a clean 8000 L reactor.
Toluene (1900 L) was added, and the batch was concentrated at <0.075 MPa while maintaining the jacket temperature below 40 °C to a final volume of 3000 L.
Toluene was added (1900 L) two more times with similar concentrations to volume batch volume of 3000 L in order to meet the specifications for KF (<200 ppm) and DCM (dichloromethane) (< 1 wt%). The batch was cooled to 20 °C and toluene (1900 L) was added. Tetraoctylammonium bromide (450.4 kg, 1.25 equiv) and triphenylboroxine (267 kg, 1.3 equiv) were added, and the mixture was agitated for 1 h. Methanesulfonic anhydride (275.5 kg, 2.4 equiv) and toluene (413 kg) were then added and the mixture agitated for 30 min. The slurry was heated to 75 °C for 10 h, then sampled and analyzed. During this time the reaction mixture transformed from a thick slurry to a homogenous solution. After completion of the bromination reaction, the batch was concentrated at <0.075 MPa while maintaining the jacket temperature below 40 °C to a final volume of 3000 L. The resulting slurry was cooled to 25 °C and acetonitrile (1200 kg) was added and agitated for 2 h. The slurry was filtered and the solids were rinsed with acetonitrile (450 kg). The solids were triphenylboroxine, and can be dried (50 °C under vacuum) and re-used in subsequent bromination reactions. Expected recovery is 60-70% of the input quantity of the triphenylboroxine. To the product-rich filtrate a solution of potassium phosphate tribasic (560 kg, 4 equiv) in water (1678 kg) was added to the reactor at such a rate that the internal temperature was maintained below 35 °C. The resulting biphasic mixture was then heated to 40 °C for 2 hours. The batch was cooled to 20 °C, the phases were allowed to split and were separated, and the aqueous layer was discarded. To the resulting mixture was added sodium hydroxide (106.4 kg, 4.0 equiv) in water (532 kg), and the mixture was then heated to 60 °C for 4 hours. After reaction completion the batch was cooled to 20 °C, and water (950 kg) was added to dissolve solids. The biphasic mixture was polish filtered (1 μιτι) and then the phases were allowed to split and were separated. The top phase (product-rich) was sequentially washed with: a solution of NaOH (106.4 g, 4 equiv) in water (532 kg), a solution of KH2PO4 (105.9 kg) in water (950 kg), and water (950 kg).
The organic stream was transferred to an 8000 L glass lined vessel and toluene (950 L) was added. The mixture was then concentrated (T <50 °C, 40-90 mbar) to a final volume of 1300 L, at which point the water content of the toluene solution was <1.0 wt. Isopropanol (450 kg) was added and the batch was heated to 40 °C. Aqueous HC1 (162.5 kg, 35 w/w %, 2.5 equiv) was then added over 3 hours with high agitation. The resulting suspension was cooled to 20 °C over 1 hour and then stirred for 2 hours. The product was collected by centrifugation, washed with a mixture of toluene (400 L) and isopropanol (171 L), a mixture of toluene (752 L) and isopropanol (293 L), and toluene (570 L), and dried at 50 °C at <0.1 MPa to afford the brominated azaindole Id as an off-white solid, 129.5 kg (99.64 AP, 99.79 wt%, 69.7% corrected yield).
Thus, the halogenated azaindole compounds and the reactions described above can be used in the production of the piperazine prodrug compound as shown further along in the scheme above. Also, in the scheme above, particularly le may be converted to li using the schemes described in PCT application number PCT/US2013/024880 filed February, 6, 2013, entitled "Methods for the Preparation of HIV Attachment Inhibitor Piperazine Prodrug Compound", and incorporated herein in its entirety.
A Friedel-Crafts acylation followed by hydrolysis and amidation produced intermediate If. The triazole substituent was then incorporated via a copper-catalyzed Ullmann-Goldberg-Buchwald cross-coupling reaction of If and 2b leading to the formation of lg. Attachment of the phosphate pro-drug by alkylation with 2c followed by hydrolysis and crystallization affords the drug substance li.
The effective preparation of the brominated intermediate Id is an important step for the effective synthesis of compound li. The bromination process uses readily available and stable reagents such as triphenylboroxine, Oct4NBr and Ms20and has several advantages. It provides high selectivity for the desired brominated azaindole and reduces the number of undesired impurities. This translates into higher yields and increased purity (average of 99 wt%). The ability to recycle and reuse the
triphenylboroxine (-60 %) reagent results in a reduction of the cost of the overall process, and increases the sustainability of the manufacturing process. Initial cost estimations have shown that this process can be -20-35% less expensive than other preparations of compound le.
It will be evident to one skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the foregoing disclosure and that it can be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the essential attributes thereof. It is therefore desired that the instant disclosure be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive, reference being made to the appended claims, rather than to the foregoing disclosure, and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein.
