Description

QUINAZOLINE DERIVATIVES
\ The invention concerns certain novel quinazoline derivatives, or pharmaceutically-acceptable salts thereof, which possess anti-tumour activity and are . 5 accordingly useful in methods of treatment of the human or animal body. The invention also concerns processes for the manufacture of said quinazoline derivatives, to pharmaceutical compositions containing them and to their use in therapeutic methods, for example in the manufacture of medicaments for use in the prevention or treatment of solid tumour disease in a warm-blooded animal such as man.
Many of the current treatment regimes for cell proliferation diseases such as psoriasis and cancer utilise compounds which inhibit DNA synthesis. Such compounds are toxic to cells generally but their toxic effect on rapidly dividing cells such as tumour cells can be beneficial. Alternative approaches to anti-tumour agents which act by mechanisms other than the inhibition of DNA synthesis have the potential to display enhanced selectivity of action.
In recent years it has been discovered that a cell may become cancerous by virtue of the transformation of a portion of its DNA into an oncogene i.e. a gene which, on activation, leads to the formation of malignant tumour cells (Bradshaw, Mutagenesis, 1986, 1, 91).
Several such oncogenes give rise to the production of peptides which are receptors for growth factors. Activation of the growth factor receptor complex subsequently leads to an increase in cell proliferation. It is known, for example, that several oncogenes encode tyrosine kinase enzymes and that certain growth factor receptors are also tyrosine kinase enzymes (Yarden ef al., Ann. Rev. Biochem., 1988, 57, 443; Larsen et al., Ann. Reports in Med.
Chem., 1989, Chpt. 13). The first group of tyrosine kinases to be identified arose from such viral oncogenes, for example pp60" > tyrosine kinase (otherwise known as v-Src), and the corresponding tyrosine kinases in normal cells, for example pp60° >" tyrosine kinase (otherwise known as c-Src).
Receptor tyrosine kinases are important in the transmission of biochemical signals which initiate cell replication. They are large enzymes which span the cell membrane and } possess an extracellular binding domain for growth factors such as epidermal growth factor (EGF) and an intracellular portion which functions as a kinase to phosphorylate tyrosine amino acids in proteins and hence to influence cell proliferation. Various classes of receptor tyrosine kinases are known (Wilks, Advances in Cancer Research, 1993, 60, 43-73) based on families of growth factors which bind to different receptor tyrosine kinases. The classification includes Class I receptor tyrosine kinases comprising the EGF family of receptor tyrosine kinases such as the EGF, TGFa, Neu and erbB receptors, Class II receptor tyrosine kinases . comprising the insulin family of receptor tyrosine kinases such as the insulin and IGFI receptors and insulin-related receptor (IRR) and Class III receptor tyrosine kinases comprising ‘ 5 the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) family of receptor tyrosine kinases such as the
PDGFa, PDGF and colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF1) receptors.
It is also known that certain tyrosine kinases belong to the class of non-receptor tyrosine kinases which are located intracellularly and are involved in the transmission of biochemical signals such as those that influence tumour cell motility, dissemination and invasiveness and subsequently metastatic tumour growth (Ullrich er al., Cell, 1990, 61, 203- 212, Bolen et al., FASEB J., 1992, 6, 3403-3409, Brickell et al., Critical Reviews in
Oncogenesis, 1992, 3, 401-406, Bohlen et al., Oncogene, 1993, 8, 2025-2031, Courtneidge et al., Semin. Cancer Biol., 1994, §, 239-246, Lauffenburger ef al., Cell, 1996, 84, 359-369,
Hanks et al., BioEssays, 1996, 19, 137-145, Parsons et al., Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1997, 9, 187-192, Brown et al., Biochimica et Biophysica Acta, 1996, 1287, 121-149 and
Schlaepfer er al., Progress in Biophysics and Molecular Biology, 1999, 71, 435-478). Various classes of non-receptor tyrosine kinases are known including the Src family such as the Src,
Lyn, Fyn and Yes tyrosine kinases, the Abl family such as Abl and Arg and the Jak family such as Jak 1 and Tyk 2.
It is known that the Src family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases are highly regulated in normal cells and in the absence of extracellular stimuli are maintained in an inactive conformation. However, some Src family members, for example c-Src tyrosine kinase, is frequently significantly activated (when compared to normal cell levels) in common human cancers such as gastrointestinal cancer, for example colon, rectal and stomach cancer (Cartwright et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA, 1990, 87, 558-562 and Mao er al., Oncogene, 1997, 15, 3083-3090), and breast cancer (Muthuswamy et al., Oncogene, 1995, 11, 1801- 1810). The Src family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases has also been located in other common human cancers such as non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLCs) including } adenocarcinomas and squamous cell cancer of the lung (Mazurenko et al., European Journal of Cancer, 1992, 28, 372-7), bladder cancer (Fanning et al., Cancer Research, 1992, 52, 1457- 62), oesophageal cancer (Jankowski et al., Gut, 1992, 33, 1033-8), cancer of the prostate, ovarian cancer (Wiener et al., Clin. Cancer Research, 1999, 5, 2164-790) and pancreatic cancer
(Lutz er al., Biochem. and Biophys. Res. Comm., 1998, 243, 503-8). As further human tumour tissues are tested for the Src family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases it is expected that i its widespread prevalance will be established.
It is further known that the predominant role of c-Src non-receptor tyrosine kinase is to . 5 regulate the assembly of focal adhesion complexes through interaction with a number of cytoplasmic proteins including, for example, focal adhesion kinase and paxillin. In addition c-Src is coupled to signalling pathways that regulate the actin cytoskeleton which facilitates cell motility. Likewise, important roles are played by the c-Src, c-Yes and c-Fyn non-receptor tyrosine kinases in integrin mediated signalling and in disrupting cadherin-dependent cell-cell junctions (Owens et al., Molecular Biology of the Cell, 2000, 11, 51-64 and Klinghoffer et al.,
EMBO Journal, 1999, 18, 2459-2471). Cellular motility is necessarily required for a localised tumour to progress through the stages of dissemination into the blood stream, invasion of other tissues and initiation of metastatic tumour growth. For example, colon tumour progression from localised to disseminated, invasive metastatic disease has been correlated with c-Src non-receptor tyrosine kinase activity (Brunton et al., Oncogene, 1997, 14, 283-293,
Fincham et al., EMBO J, 1998, 17, 81-92 and Verbeek er al., Exp. Cell Research, 1999, 248, 531-537).
Accordingly it has been recognised that an inhibitor of such non-receptor tyrosine kinases should be of value as a selective inhibitor of the motility of tumour cells and as a selective inhibitor of the dissemination and invasiveness of mammalian cancer cells leading to inhibition of metastatic tumour growth. In particular an inhibitor of such non-receptor tyrosine kinases should be of value as an anti-invasive agent for use in the containment and/or treatment of solid tumour disease.
We have now found that surprisingly certain quinazoline derivatives possess potent anti-tumour activity. Without wishing to imply that the compounds disclosed in the present invention possess pharmacological activity only by virtue of an effect on a single biological process, it is believed that the compounds provide an anti-tumour effect by way of inhibition of one or more of the non-receptor tyrosine-specific protein kinases that are involved in the . signal transduction steps which lead to the invasiveness and migratory ability of metastasising tumour cells. In particular, it is believed that the compounds of the present invention provide an anti-tumour effect by way of inhibition of the Src family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases, for example by inhibition of one or mere of c-Src, c-Yes and c-Fyn.
It is also known that c-Src non-receptor tyrosine kinase enzyme is involved in the control of osteoclast-driven bone resorption (Soriano et al., Cell, 1991, 64, 693-702; Boyce et ] al., J. Clin. Invest, 1992, 90, 1622-1627; Yoneda et al., J. Clin. Invest., 1993, 91, 2791-2795 and Missbach et al., Bone, 1999, 24 , 437-49). An inhibitor of c-Src non-receptor tyrosine . 5 kinase is therefore of value in the prevention and treatment of bone diseases such as osteoporosis, Paget’s disease, metastatic disease in bone and tumour-induced hypercalcaemia.
The compounds of the present invention are also useful in inhibiting the uncontrolled cellular proliferation which arises from various non-malignant diseases such as inflammatory diseases (for example rheumatoid arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease), fibrotic diseases (for example hepatic cirrhosis and lung fibrosis), glomerulonephritis, multiple sclerosis, psoriasis, hypersensitivity reactions of the skin, blood vessel diseases (for example atherosclerosis and restenosis), allergic asthma, insulin-dependent diabetes, diabetic retinopathy and diabetic nephropathy.
Generally the compounds of the present invention possess potent inhibitory activity against the Src family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases, for example by inhibition of c-Src and/or c-Yes, whilst possessing less potent inhibitory ativity against other tyrosine kinase enzymes such as the receptor tyrosine kinases, for example EGF receptor tyrosine kinase and/or VEGF receptor tyrosine kinase. Furthermore, certain compounds of the present invention, possess substantially better potency against the Src family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases, for example c-Src and/or c-Yes, than against EGF receptor tyrosine kinase or VEGF receptor tyrosine kinase. Such compounds possess sufficient potency against the Src family of non-receptor tyrosine kinases, for example c-Src and/or c-Yes, that they may be used in an ) amount sufficient to inhibit, for example, c-Src and/or c-Yes whilst demonstrating little activity against EGF receptor tyrosine kinase or VEGF receptor tyrosine kinase.

A suitable value for (Rm when it is a (1-3C)alkylenedioxy group is, for example, methylenedioxy or ethylenedioxy and the oxygen atoms thereof occupy adjacent ring positions.
When, as defined hereinbefore, an R' group forms a group of the formula Q’-X'- and, for example, X' is a OC(R*); linking group, it is the carbon atom, not the oxygen atom, of the
OC(R*), linking group which is attached to the quinazoline ring and the oxygen atom is attached to the Q° group. Similarly, when, for example a CH; group within a R' substituent bears a group of the formula -X’-Q’ and, for example, X’ is a C(R"),0 linking group, it is the carbon atom, not the oxygen atom, of the C(R"),0 linking group which is attached to the CH; group and the oxygen atom is linked to the Q° group. A similar convention applies to the attachment of the groups of the formulae Q*-X* and -X’-Q’.
As defined hereinbefore, adjacent carbon atoms in any (2-6C)alkylene chain within a
R' substituent may be optionally separated by the insertion into the chain of a group such as 0, CON(R?) or C=C. For example, insertion of a C=C group into the ethylene chain within a 2-morpholinoethoxy group gives rise to a 4-morpholinobut-2-ynyloxy group and, for example, insertion of a CONH group into the ethylene chain within a 3-methoxypropoxy group gives rise to, for example, a 2-(2-methoxyacetamido)ethoxy group.

CH; group and there are suitably 1, 2 or 3 such substituents present on each said CHj group. . 5 When, as defined hereinbefore, any CH; or CH; group within a R! substituent optionally bears on each said CH; or CH; group a substituent as defined hereinbefore, suitable
R' substituents so formed include, for cxample, hydroxy-substituted heterocyclyl- (1-6C)alkoxy groups such as 2-hydroxy-3-piperidinopropoxy and 2-hydroxy- 3-morpholinopropoxy, hydroxy-substituted amino-(2-6C)alkoxy groups such as 3-amino- 2-hydroxypropoxy, hydroxy-substituted (1-6C)alkylamino-(2-6C)alkoxy groups such as 2-hydroxy-3-methylaminopropoxy, hydroxy-substituted di-[(1-6C)alkyl]amino-(2-6C)alkoxy groups such as 3-dimethylamino-2-hydroxypropoxy, hydroxy-substituted heterocyclyl- (1-6C)alkylamino groups such as 2-hydroxy-3-piperidinopropylamino and 2-hydroxy- 3-morpholinopropylamino, hydroxy-substituted amino-(2-6C)alkylamino groups such as 3-amino-2-hydroxypropylamino, hydroxy-substituted (1-6C)alkylamino-(2-6C)alkylamino groups such as 2-hydroxy-3-methylaminopropylamino, hydroxy-substituted di-[(1-6C)alkyl]amino-(2-6C)alkylamino groups such as 3-dimethylamino- 2-hydroxypropylamino, hydroxy-substituted (1-6C)alkoxy groups such as 2-hydroxyethoxy, (1-6C)alkoxy-substituted (1-6C)alkoxy groups such as 2-methoxyethoxy and 3-ethoxypropoxy, (1-6C)alkylsulphonyl-substituted (1-6C)alkoxy groups such as 2-methylsulphonylethoxy and heterocyclyl-substituted (1-6C)alkylamino-(1-6C)alky! groups such as 2-morpholinoethylaminomethyl, 2-piperazin-1-ylethylaminomethyl and 3-morpholinopropylaminomethyl.
Similar considerations apply to the attachments and substitutions within the -Z-Q' group.
When, as defined hereinbefore, G' and G? together form, for example, a group of formula -O-CH=CH-, it is the oxygen atom, not the carbon atom, which is attached to the ortho-position of the phenyl ring of formula Ia and the carbon atom is attached to the adjacent meta-position of the phenyl ring of formula Ia. Similarly, when, for example, G* and G* together form, for example, a group of formula -CH=CH-CH=N-, it is the carbon atom, not the nitrogen atom, which is attached to the G? meta-position of the phenyl ring of formula Ia and the nitrogen atom is attached to the adjacent G’ para-position of the phenyl ring of formula Ia. A similar convention applies to the attachment of the groups when, for example,
G’ and G* are joined. } A suitable pharmaceutically-acceptable salt of a compound of the Formula 1 is, for example, an acid-addition salt of a compound of the Formula I, for example an acid-addition . 5 salt with an inorganic or organic acid such as hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulphuric, trifluoroacetic, citric or maleic acid; or, for example, a salt of a compound of the Formula which is sufficiently acidic, for example an alkali or alkaline earth metal salt such as a calcium or magnesium salt, or an ammonium salt, or a salt with an organic base such as methylamine, dimethylamine, trimethylamine, piperidine, morpholine or tris-(2-hydroxyethyl)amine.

An aliquot (50ml) of this buffer was mixed with a 50mg tablet of 2,2’ -azinobis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid) (ABTS; Boehringer Catalogue
No. 1204 521). Aliquots (100ul) of the resultant solution were added to each well. The plates were incubated for 20 to 60 minutes at ambient temperature until the optical density value of the "total" contro! wells, measured at 405»m using a plate reading spectrophotometer, was approximately 1.0. "Blank" (no ATP) and "total" (no compound) control values were used to determine the dilution range of test compound which gave 50% inhibition of enzyme activity. (b) In Vitro c-Src transfected NIH 3T3 (c-src 3T3) Fibroblast Proliferation Assay
This assay determined the ability of a test compound to inhibit the proliferation of
National Institute of Health (NIH) mouse 3T3 fibroblast cells that had been stably-transfected with an activating mutant (Y530F) of human c-Src.
Using a similar procedure to that described by Shalloway er al., Cell, 1987, 49, 65-73,
NIH 3T3 cells were transfected with an activating mutant (Y530F) of human c-Src. The resultant c-Src 3T3 cells were typically seeded at 1.5 x 10* cells per well into 96-well tissue- culture-treated clear assay plates (Costar) each containing an assay medium comprising
Dulbecco’s modified Eagle’s medium (DMEM; Sigma) plus 0.5% foetal calf serum (FCS), 2mM glutamine, 100 units/ml penicillin and 0.1mg/ml streptomycin in 0.9% aqueous sodium chloride solution. The plates were incubated overnight at 37°C in a humidified (7.5% CO; : 95% air) incubator.
Test compounds were solubilised in DMSO to form a 10mM stock solution. Aliquots of the stock solution were diluted with the DMEM medium described above and added to appropriate wells. Serial dilutions were made to give a range of test concentrations. Control wells to which test compound was not added were included on each plate. The plates were incubated overnight at 37°C in a humidified (7.5% CO; : 95% air) incubator.
BrdU labelling reagent (Boehringer Mannheim Catalogue No. 647 229) was diluted by a factor of 1:100 in DMEM medium containing 0.5% FCS and aliquots (20ul) were added to each well to give a final concentration of 10uM). The plates were incubated at 37°C for 2 hours. The medium was decanted. A denaturating solution (FixDenat solution, Boehringer
Mannheim Catalogue No. 647 229; 50ul) was added to each well and the plates were placed on a plate shaker at ambient temperature for 45 minutes. The supernatant was decanted and the wells were washed with PBS (200ul per well). Anti-BrdU-Peroxidase solution (Boehringer Mannheim Catalogue No. 647 229) was diluted by a factor of 1:100 in PBS containing 1% BSA and 0.025% dred skimmed milk (Marvel (registered trade mark), Premier : Beverages, Stafford, GB) and an aliquot (100ul) of the resultant solution was added to each well. The plates were were placed on a plate shaker at ambient temperature for 90 minutes.
The wells were washed with PBS (x5) to ensure removal of non bound antibody conjugate.
The plates were blotted dry and tetramethylbenzid:ne substrate sclution {Boehringer
Mannheim Catalogue No. 647 229; 100ul) was added to each well. The plates were gently agitated on a plate shaker while the colour developed during a 10 to 20 minute period. The absorbance of the wells was measured at 690nm. The extent of inhibition of cellular proliferation at a range of concentrations of each test compound was determined and an anti- : 5 proliferative ICsy value was derived. (c) In Vitro Microdroplet Migration Assay
This assay determines the ability of a test compound to inhibit the migration of adherent mammalian cell lines, for example the human tumour cell line A549.
RPMI medium(Sigma) containing 10% FCS, 1% L-glutamine and 0.3% agarose (Difco Catalogue No. 0142-01) was warmed to 37°C in a waterbath. A stock 2% aqueous agar solution was autoclaved and stored at 42°C. An aliquot (1.5 ml) of the agar solution was added to RPMI medium (10 ml) immediately prior to its use. A549 cells (Accession No.
ATCC CCL185) were suspended at a concentration of 2 x 10’ cells/ml in the medium and maintained at a temperature of 37°C.
A droplet (2ul) of the cell/agarose mixture was transferred by pipette into the centre of each well of a number of 96-well, flat bottomed non-tissue-culture-treated microtitre plate (Bibby Sterilin Catalogue No. 642000). The plates were placed briefly on ice to speed the gelling of the agarose-cantaining droplets. Aliquots (90ul) of medium which had been cooled to 4°C were transferred into each well, taking care not to disturb the microdroplets. Test compounds were diluted from a 10mM stock solution in DMSO using RPMI medium as described above. Aliquots (10ul) of the diluted test compounds were transferred to the wells, again taking care not to disturb the microdroplets. The plates were incubated at 37°C in a humidified (7.5% CO; : 95% air) incubator for about 48 hours.
Migration was assessed visually and the distance of migration was measured back to the edge of the agar droplet. A migratory inhibitory ICso was derived by plotting the mean migration measurement against test compound concentration. (d) In Vivo A549 Xenograft Growth Assay
This test measures the ability of compounds to inhibit the growth of the A549 human : carcinoma grown as a tumour in athymic nude mice (Alderley Park nu/nu strain). A total of about 5 x 10° A549 cells in matrigel (Beckton Dickinson Catalogue No. 40234) were injected subcutaneously into the left flank of each test mouse and the resultant tumours were allowed to grow for about 14 days. Tumour size was measured twice weekly using callisers and a theoretical volume was calculated. Animals were selected to provide control and treatment groups of approximately equal average tumour volume. Test compounds were prepared as a ball-milled suspension in 1% polysorbate vehicle and dosed orally once daily for a period of about 28 days. The effect on tumour growth was assessed.
Although the pharmacological properties of the compounds of the Formula I vary with structural change as expected, in general activity possessed by compounds of the Formula I, may be demonstrated at the following concentrations or doses in one or more of the above tests (a), (b), (c) and (d):-
Test (a):- ICs0 in the range, for example, 0.001 - 10 uM;
Test (b):- ICsp in the range, for example, 0.01 - 20 uM;
Test (c):- activity in the range, for example, 0.01-25 uM;
Test (d):- activity in the range, for example, 1-200 mg/kg/day.
No physiologically-unacceptable toxicity was observed in Test (d) at the effective dose for compounds tested of the present invention. Accordingly no untoward toxicological effects are expected when a compound of Formula I, or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof, as defined hereinbefore is administered at the dosage ranges defined hereinafter.
According to a further aspect of the invention there is provided a pharmaceutical composition which comprises a quinazoline derivative of the Formula, or a pharmaceutically-acceptable thereof, as defined hereinbefore in association with a pharmaceutically-acceptable diluent or carrier.
The compositions of the invention may be in a form suitable for oral use (for example as tablets, lozenges, hard or soft capsules, aqueous or oily suspensions, emulsions, dispersible powders or granules, syrups or elixirs), for topical use (for example as creams, ointments, gels, or aqueous or oily solutions or suspensions), for administration by inhalation (for example as a finely divided powder or a liquid aerosol), for administration by insufflation (for example as a finely divided powder) or for parenteral administration (for example as a sterile aqueous or oily solution for intravenous, subcutaneous, intramuscular or intramuscular dosing or as a suppository for rectal dosing). . The compositions of the invention may be obtained by conventional procedures using conventional pharmaceutical excipients, well known in the art. Thus, compositions intended for oral use may contain, for example, one or more colouring, sweetening, flavouring and/or preservative agents.
The amount of active ingredient that is combined with one or more excipients to produce a single dosage form will necessarily vary depending upon the host treated and the ] particular route of administration. For example, a formulation intended for oral administration to humans will generally contain, for example, from 0.5 mg to 0.5 g of active : 5 agent (more suitably from 0.5 to 100 mg, for example from 1 to 30 mg) compounded with an appropriate and convenient amount of excipients which may vary from about 5 to about 98 percent by weight of the total composition.
The size of the dose for therapeutic or prophylactic purposes of a compound of the
Formula I will naturally vary according to the nature and severity of the conditions, the age and sex of the animal or patient and the route of administration, according to well known principles of medicine.
In using a compound of the Formula I for therapeutic or prophylactic purposes it will generally be administered so that a daily dose in the range, for example, 0.1 mg/kg to 75 mg/kg body weight is received, given if required in divided doses. In general lower doses will be administered when a parenteral route is employed. Thus, for example, for intravenous administration, a dose in the range, for example, 0.1 mg/kg to 30 mg/kg body weight will generally be used. Similarly, for administration by inhalation, a dose in the range, for example, 0.05 mg/kg to 25 mg/kg body weight will be used. Oral administration is however preferred, particularly in tablet form. Typically, unit dosage forms will contain about 0.5 mg to 0.5 g of a compound of this invention.
According to a further aspect of the invention there is provided a quinazoline derivative of the Formula I, or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof, as defined hereinbefore for use in a method of treatment of the human or animal body by therapy.
As stated above, it is known that the predominant role of c-Src non-receptor tyrosine kinase is to regulate cell motility which is necessarily required for a localised tumour to progress through the stages of dissemination into the blood stream, invasion of other tissues and initiation of metastatic tumour growth. We have found that the quinazoline derivatives of the present invention possess potent anti-tumour activity which it is believed is obtained by . way of inhibition of one or more of the non-receptor tyrosine-specific protein kinases such as c-Src kinase that are involved in the signal transduction steps which lead to the invasiveness and migratory ability of metastasising tumour cells.
Accordingly the quinazoline derivatives of the present invention are of value as anti- tumour agents, in particular as selective inhibitors of the motility, dissemination and invasiveness of mammalian cancer cells leading to inhibition of metastatic tumour growth.
Particularly, the quinazoline derivatives of the present invention are of value as anti-invasive agents in the containment and/or treatment of solid tumour disease.

Further, the compounds of the present invention are expected to be useful in the prevention or treatment of those tumours which are mediated alone or in part by inhibition of the enzyme c-Src, i.e. the compounds may be used to produce a c-Src enzyme inhibitory effect in a warm-blooded animal in need of such treatment. Specifically, the compounds of the present invention are expected to be useful in the prevention or treatment of solid tumour disease.

The 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-5-methyl-2-morpholinomethylimidazole used as a starting material was prepared as follows :-
A mixture of 4-methyl-1-tritylimidazole (J. Heterocyclic Chem., 1982, 19, 253; 32.5 g), methyl bromoacetate (11.4 ml) and acetone (500 ml) was heated to reflux for 2 hours.
The solvent was removed by evaporation and the residue was dissolved in methanol (100 ml) and heated to reflux for 45 minutes. The mixture was evaporated and the residue was triturated under diethyl ether. The resultant precipitate was isolated and stirred at ambient temperature for 1 hour in a mixture of diethyl ether (200 ml) and a saturated methanolic ammonia solution (20 ml). The mixture was filtered and the filtrate was evaporated. The k residue was purified by column chromatography on silica using a 49:1 mixture of methylene chloride and methanol as eluent. There was thus obtained methyl 2-(5-methylimidazol- 1-ylacetate (6 g); NMR Spectrum: (CDCls) 2.16 (s, 3H), 3.78 (s, 3H), 4.61 (s, 3H), 6.8 (s, 1H), 7.42 (s, 1H).
A solution of a portion (1.7 g) of the material so obtained in diethyl ether (20 ml) was added dropwise to a stirred suspension of lithium aluminium hydride (0.76 g) in diethyl ether (70 ml) which was cooled to 0°C. The resultant mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 1 hour. The mixture was cooled to 0°C and a 6N aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (0.8 ml) and water (2.4 ml) were added dropwise in turn. The mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 30 minutes and then evaporated. The residue was dissolved in methylene chloride, dried over magnesium sulphate and evaporated to give 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)- 5-methylimidazole (1.1 g); NMR Spectrum: (CDCl;) 2.17 (s, 3H), 3.81 (t, 2H), 3.92 (t, 2H), 6.6 (s, 1H), 7.24 (s, 1H).
Tert-butyldimethylsilyl chloride (9.05 g) was added to a stirred mixture of 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-5-methylimidazole (6.4 g), imidazole (7.5 g) and methylene chloride (30 ml) which was cooled to 0°C. The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 4 hours. The mixture was poured into water. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulphate and evaporated to give 1-(2-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxyethyl)-
S-methylimidazole (11.7 g); NMR Spectrum: (CDCl3) -0.04 (s, 6H), 0.85 (s, 6H), 2.2 (s, 3H), 3.8 (m, 2H), 3.94 (m, 2H), 6.75 (s, 1H), 7.43 (s, 1H).
The material so obtained was dissolved in THF (400 ml!) and the solution was cooled at = -60°C. n-Butyllithium (2.5M in hexane, 40 ml) was added dropwise and the mixture was stirred at -50°C for 1 hour. The mixture was cooled to -60°C and DMF (12.5 ml) was added dropwise. The resultant mixture was allowed to warm to ambient temperature and was stirred for 2 hours. Diethyl ether (500 ml) was added and the reaction mixture was poured into a } saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution. The organic layer was separated, washed with brine, dried over magnesium sulphate and evaporated. The material so obtained was purified by column chromatography on silica using increasingly polar mixtures of methylene chloride and a saturated methanolic ammonia solution as eluent. There was thus obtained 1-(2-tert-butyldimethylsilyloxyethyl)-2-formyl-5-methylimidazole (11 g); NMR Spectrum:
(CDCls) -0.1 (s, 6H), 0.79 (s, 9H), 2.32 (s, 3H), 3.91 (t, 2H), 4.4 (1, 2H), 7.07 (s, 1H), 9.71 (s, 1H).
A portion (0.79 g) of the material so obtained was dissolved in methylene chloride (24 ml) and morpholine (0.263 ml) and acetic acid (0.175 ml) were added. Sodium ‘ 5 borohydride triacetate (0.8 g) was added portionwise and the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 16 hours. The mixture was evaporated and the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica using a 49:1 mixture of methylene chloride and a saturated methanolic ammonia solution as eluent. There was thus obtained 1-(2-tert-butyldimethylsilylox yethyl)-5-methyl-2-morpholinomethylimidazole (0.5 g); NMR
