The in vitro activity of the complexes of E-2-Methoxy-N-(3-{4-[3-methyl-4-(6-methyi- pyridin-3-yloxy)- phenylamino]-quinazolin-6-yl}-allyl}-acetamide may be determined by the following procedure.

The in vitro activity of the complexes of E-2-Methoxy-N-(3-{4-[3-methyl-4-(6-methyi- pyridin-3-yloxy)-phenylamino}-quinazolin-6-yl}-allyl)-acetamide as erbB kinase inhibitors in intact cells may be determined by the following procedure. Cells, for example 3T3 cells ’ transfected with human EGFR (Cohen et al. J. Virology 67:5303, 1993) or with chimeric

EGFR/erbB2 kinase (EGFR extracellular/erbB2 intracellular, Fazioli et al. Mol. Cell. Biol. 11: 2040, 1991) are plated in 96-well plates at 12,000 cells per well in 100 pl medium (Dulbecco's

Minimum Essential Medium (DMEM) with 5% fetal calf serum, 1% pen/streptomycin, 1% L-

-0- glutamine) and incubated at 37° C, 5% CO2, Test compounds are solubilized in DMSO at a concentration of 10 mM, and tested at final concentrations of 0, 0.3 pM, 1 pM, 0.3 uM, 0.1

UM and 10 pM in the medium. The cells are incubated at 37° C for 2 h. EGF (40 ng/ml final) is added to each well and cells incubate at room temperature for 15 min followed by aspiration of medium, then 100 pl/well cold fixative (50% ethanol/50% acetone containing 200 micromolar sodium orthovanadate) is added. The plate is incubated for 30 min at room temperature followed by washing with wash buffer (0.5% Tween 20 in phosphate buffered saline). Blocking buffer (3% bovine serum albumin, 0.05% Tween 20, 200 uM sodium orthovanadate in phosphate buffered saline, 100 pi/well) is added followed by incubation for 2 hours at room temperature followed by two washes with wash buffer. PY54 monoclonal anti- phosphotyrosine antibody directly conjugated to horseradish peroxidase (50 pl/well, 1 ug/ml in blocking buffer) or blocked conjugate (1 pg/ml with 1 mM phosphotyrosine in blocking buffer, to check specificity) is added and the plates incubated for 2 hours at room temperature. The plate wells are then washed 4 times with wash buffer. The colorimetric 16 signal is developed by addition of TMB Microwell Peroxidase Substrate (Kirkegaard and

Perry, Gaithersburg, MD), 50 pl per well, and stopped by the addition of 0.09 M sulfuric acid, 50 ul per well. Absorbance at 450 nM represents phosphotyrosine content of proteins. The increase in signal in EGF-treated cells over control (non-EGF treated) represents the activity of the EGFR or EGFR/chimera respectively. The potency of an inhibitor is determined by measurement of the concentration of compound needed to inhibit the increase in phosphotyrosine by 50% (ICs) in each cell line. The selectivity of the compounds for erbB2 vs. EGFR is determined by comparison of the ICs, for the EGFR transfectant vs. that for the erbB2/EGFR chimera transfectant. Thus, for example, a compound with an ICs; of 100 nM for the EGFR transfectant and 10 nM for the erbB2/EGFR chimera transfectant is considered 10- fold selective for erbB2 kinase.

Administration of the compounds of the present invention (hereinafter the “active compound(s)”) can be effected by any method that enables delivery of the compounds to the site of action. These methods include oral routes, intraduodenal routes, parenteral injection (including intravenous, subcutaneous, intramuscular, intravascular or infusion), topical, and rectal administration.

In the following examples and preparations, “Et” means ethyl, “AC™ means acetyl, “Me” means methyl, “ETOAC” or “ETOAC” means ethyl acetate, “THF” means tetrahydrofuran, and “Bu” means butyl.

The spectrums in FIGS. 1-3 were recorded using a Bruker' D5000 diffractometer equipped with copper radiation, fixed slits (1.0,1.0,0.6mm), and a Kevex solid state detector.

Data was collected from 3.0 to 40.0 degrees in two theta using a step size of 0.04 degrees and a step time of 1.0 seconds.

The experimental conditions under which the powder X-ray diffraction was conducted are as follows: Cu anode; wavelength 1: 1.54056 angstrom; wavelength 2: 1.54439 angstrom (Relative Intensity: 0.500); range # 1 - coupled: 3.000 to 40.000; step size: 0.040; step time: ’ 1.00; smoothing width: 0.300; and threshold: 1.0.

For single crystal X-ray analysis, data collection was done through a Bruker CCD diffractometer. Cu anode: wavelength 1.54178 angstrom; room temeprature;

The following details pertain to data analysis: Atomic scattering factors were taken the International Tables for X-ray Crystallography (Vol. IV, pp. 55, 99, 149 Birmingham:

Kynoch Press, 1974). All crystallographic calculations were facilitated by the SHELXTL system G. M. Sheldrick, SHELXTL, User Manual, Nicholet Instrument Co., 1981). A trial structure was obtained by direct methods.

Calculation of PXRD pattern from single crystal data: To compare the results between a single crystal and a powder sample, a powder X-ray pattern based on the single crystal structural data can be calculated. The calculation can be done using SHELXTL Plus computer program, Reference Manual by Siemens Analytical X-ray Instrument, Chapter 10, p. 179-181, 1990. The single crystal structural data provide the cell dimensions, space group and atomic positions of a crystal form. These parameters are used as the basis to calculate a perfect powder pattern of that crystal form. Comparing the calculated PXRD pattem and the experimental pattern will confirm whether a powder sample corresponds to an assigned single crystal structure. This procedure has been performed on the crystal forms of azithromycin, A,

D,F, G and J.

The dimesylate salt is prepared as follows:

To 67.33 grams of the free base form E-2-Methoxy-N-(3-{4-[3-methyi-4-(6-methyl- pyridin-3-yloxy)- phenylamino]-quinazolin-6-yl}-allyl)-acetamide (prepared according to

Example 1 above) in 400 mL of EtOH and 100 ml of CH.Cl, at room temp was added dropwise a soln of 19.17 mL (2.05) equivs of methanesulfonic acid (CHzSO3H) in 100 mi of acetonitrile. The mixture was slurried at room temperature for 15 minutes then the methylene chloride (~100 ml) was removed. An additional 600 mL of acetonitrile was added to complete crystallization and the mixture slurried for 2 hours. The crystals were filtered under a nitrogen atmosphere and washed with 100 ml of acetonitrile. The dimesylate salt (94.48 grams) was produced in 99 % yield.

The dimesylate salt produced according to the method of the preceding paragraph (90 g) was dissolved in water (~550 mL). Chloroform was added (~500 mL) to the solution followed by 1N NaOH until a white suspension/precipitate was observed (pH ~13-14). The addition of chloroform before NaOH reduced gumming as the precipitate formed. The mixture was transferred to a separatory funnel (2 L) and the free base was extracted with three portions of chloroform (~300 mL). The extracts were combined (~1.3 L), washed with water (~500 mL), dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and then filtered. The chloroform filtrate was concentrated in vacuo to provide a yellow amorphous solid/oil. This material was reslurried in ethyl acetate overnight resulting in a white solid. This material was then filtered, washed with cold ethyl acetate, and then dried in a vacuum oven at 45°C to yield a white crystalline solid (~59 g). The free base was characterized by polarizing light microscopy (PLM), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). ltisin the form of a needle, and displays three endothermic events by DSC (DSC melting points: 125°C, 160°C, and 167°C)
