4-Hydroxy-5,6-dihydropyrones as Inhibitors of HIV Protease: The Effect of Heterocyclic Substituents at C-6 on Antiviral Potency and Pharmacokinetic Parameters
摘要:
Due largely to the emergence of multi-drug-resistant HIV strains, the development of new HIV protease inhibitors remains a high priority for the pharmaceutical industry. Toward this end, we previously identified a 4-hydroxy-5,6-dihydropyrone lead compound (CI-1029, 1) which possesses excellent activity against the protease enzyme, good antiviral efficacy in cellular assays, and promising bioavailability in several animal species. The search for a suitable backup candidate centered on the replacement of the aniline moiety at C-6 with an appropriately substituted heterocyle. In general, this series of heterocyclic inhibitors displayed good activity (in both enzymatic and cellular tests) and-low cellular toxicity; furthermore, several analogues exhibited improved pharmacokinetic parameters in animal models. The compound with the best combination of high potency, low toxicity, and favorable bioavailabilty was (S)-3-(2-tertbutyl-4-hydroxymethy1- 5-methyl-phenylsulfanyl)-4-hydroxy-6-isopropyl-6-(2-thiophen-3-yl-ethyl)-5,6-dihydro-pyran-2-one (13-(S)). This thiophene derivative also exhibited excellent antiviral efficacy against mutant HIV protease and resistant HIV strains. For these reasons, compound 13-(S) was chosen for further preclinical evaluation.
An Efficient and Stereoselective Synthesis of (E)-α-Enones via Arsonium Salts. Preparation of Key Intermediates for the Synthesis of Brassinosteroid and Prostaglandin
Steroidal allylic alcohols formed Na+ adduct ion peaks [M+Na]+ by the addition of NaCl in FAB massspectrometry. A comparison of the intensities of the adduct ion peaks of allylic alcohols with those of the corresponding saturated alcohols and olefin suggested that the olefinic doublebond and the proximal hydroxyl group had coordinated to Na+. The adduct ion was stable and did not undergo dehydroxylation
The present invention relates to novel dihydropyrones with tethered heterocycles having improved pharmacologic properties which potently inhibit the HIV aspartyl protease blocking HIV infectivity. The dihydropyrones are useful in the development of therapies for the treatment of viral infections and diseases including AIDS. The present invention is also directed to methods of synthesis of the dihydropyrones and intermediates useful in the preparation of the final compounds.

Starting from stigmasterol (2), 24-methylenecholest-4-en-3 beta ,6 beta -diol (1), a cytotoxic natural dihydroxylated sterol, was synthesized via 10 steps in 20% overall yield. The introduction of a side-chain of sterol was achieved by solid-liquid phase-transfer Wittig reaction using (3-methyl-2-oxo)butyltriphenylarsonium bromide (12) and K2CO3. Construction of the steroidal nucleus was finished by the addition of 3 beta -acetoxycholest-5,6-en-24-one (7) with NBA in dioxane under ambient temperature and by the elimination of 3 beta, 6 beta -diacetoxy-5a-bromocholestane-24-one (9). The spectral data of the synthetic product (1) are completely consistent with those of the natural compound (1). (C) 2001 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.

Using stigmasterol as the starting material, 24-methylenecholest-4-en-3beta,6alpha-diol (2) was synthesized in eight steps in 13% overall yield. The introduction of the sterol side-chain was carried out using (3-methyl-2-oxobutyl)-triphenylarsonium bromide (11) and K2CO3 in a solid-liquid phase-transfer Wittig reaction. Construction of the steroidal nucleus was finished by oxidation of 24-methylenecholest-5-en-3beta-ol (9) with pyridinium chlorochromate (PCC) in dichloromethane at ambient temperature and by reduction of 24-methylenecholest-4-en-3,6-dione (10) with NaBH4 in the presence of CeCl3.7H(2)O.
