FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a process for preparing a 3′- or 2′-hydroxymethyl substituted nucleoside derivative, and a composition for and a method of treating a hepatitis virus infection or a proliferative disorder using a 3′- or 2′-hydroxymethyl substituted nucleoside derivative. More particularly, the present invention is directed to a composition for and method of treating hepatitis B, C, or D virus or a proliferative disorder such as cancer.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to a process for preparing a 3′- or 2′-hydroxymethyl substituted nucleoside derivative, compounds and pharmaceutical compositions for, and a method of treating hepatitis virus infections and/or proliferative disorders in patients using 3′-hydroxymethyl and 2′-hydroxymethyl substituted nucleosides and structurally related nucleosides of general formulas [I]–[IV] and their L-nucleoside counterparts.

wherein the substituents are as defined herein.

Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is the most prevalent form of hepatitis and is the second most common infectious disease worldwide. Approximately 5% of the world's population is chronically infected with HBV. The virus is transmitted through blood transfusions, contaminated needles, sexual contact and transmission from mother to child. Moreover, a significant number of people are infected by unknown means.
Carriers of the hepatitis B virus can exhibit various forms of disease, one of which is chronic hepatitis B. Approximately 50% of the carriers show chronic inflammatory changes in the liver and, of these, about 50% have histopathologic changes, which are termed “chronic active hepatitis,” which may lead to fibrosis and ultimately to cirrhosis and progressive liver failure. Carriers without chronic inflammatory changes may also develop chronic active hepatitis, while liver cancer develops in about 10 to 30% of hepatitis B carriers. It has been estimated that approximately 4 million carriers of hepatitis B virus die each year from liver cancer or cirrhosis.
HBV, also known as the Dane particle, is a member of the Hepadonaviridae and is a 42 nm complex spherical particle composed of an outer lipoprotein coat (hepatitis B surface antigen HBsAg) and an inner core (hepatitis B core antigen, HBcAg). (Ganem, D., Fundamental Virology, 3 rd Ed., Lippincott-Raven Pub., Philadelphia, 1996, p. 1199) This core contains partially double stranded DNA of 3.2 kb maintained as a circular structure by 5′ cohesive ends. (Chu, C. K., Therapies for Viral Hepatitis, Schinazi, et al., Eds., International Medical Press, 1998) The viral minus strand is full length, while the plus strand is less than full length. The 5′ ends of both strands contain short (11 nucleotide) direct repeats. These repeats are involved in priming the synthesis of their respective strands. Remarkably, viral DNA is synthesized in a reverse transcription of an RNA template. (Mason, W. S., Adv. Virus. Res., 1987, 32, 35) Following viral infection, the viral replication cycle begins with translocation of nucleocapsids from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. (Eckart, S. G., J. Virol., 1991, 65, 575) The partially duplex genomic DNA is converted to fully duplex covalently closed supercoiled DNA, which persists as an episomal minichromosome and functions as a reservoir of the viral genome. This feature provides a difficult challenge to therapeutic attack on the virus.
The episomal DNA is transcribed by the host RNA polymerase II and viral proteins are translated from the transcription products. Among the transcripts are full length pregenomic RNAs which are encapsulated by the viral structural proteins together with the viral polymerase. Synthesis of both viral DNA strands by the viral polymerase occurs within these structures. The polymerase contains both a reverse transcriptase and an RNAse H domain. Minus strand synthesis proceeds in two distinct steps (Zolim, F., J. Virol., 1994, 68, 3536). In the first, the polymerase binds to the direct repeat at the 5′ end of the pregenomic RNA and serves as a covalent primer for the synthesis of a 4 nucleotide element. The priming hydroxyl group is the side chain of a tyrosine residue on the polymerase and is linked to a dGMP residue. A sequence in the bulge of a stem loop structure in the RNA template serves as the template for this step. This reaction is particular to the virus and is not mimicked in any cellular DNA synthesis reaction. Agents which target this step would have the potential for a high degree of specificity. Following this step the polymerase-nucleotide complex translocates to the other end of the RNA template and complete reverse transcription of the strand takes place. (It has been proposed that there may be proteolytic cleavage of polymerase and RNAse domains away from the portion of the polymerase bound to the tetranucleotide primer. (Bartenschlager, R., EMBO J. 1988, 7, 4185). First strand synthesis is accompanied by the degradation of the RNA in the RNA:DNA hybrid by the RNAse H of the polymerase. Synthesis of the second strand, also mediated by the viral polymerase, is generally incomplete, giving rise to the partially duplex DNA found in the virion.
It is now clear that there are three separate phases in replication and that the first reverse transcription step is of particular interest for therapeutic intervention. It should be noted that an agent that inhibits the reverse transcriptase of other retroviruses does not necessarily have activity against HBV. For example, Zidovudine (or AZT) as its 5′-triphosphate is a potent inhibitor of reverse transcriptase of human immunodeficiency virus and has been widely used in the treatment of HIV-infected patients. However, this agent is inactive against HBV. On the other hand, certain 2′-fluoro-D-arabino nucleosides, such as Fiacitabine (FIAC) and Fialuridine (FIAU), are devoid of activity against HIV although they effectively inhibit replication of HBV.
Hepatitis C virus (HCV), the second major cause of viral hepatitis, is present in an estimated 170 million carriers worldwide, 3.9 million of whom reside in the United States. HCV is considered the most common blood-borne infection in the United States, where it is one of the leading causes for liver transplantation among adults. Most people infected with HCV do not exhibit any acute signs or symptoms of hepatitis. In fact, unless they have a blood test, most people remain unaware that they are infected with HCV for the first 10–20 years.
Aside from direct blood contact, HCV is a very difficult agent to transmit. Maternal-to-fetal transmission is quite low, less than 6% of babies born to infected mothers will carry the virus. Additionally, unlike HBV and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), evidence of direct sexual transmission of HCV is inconclusive.
HCV is a small, enveloped virus in the Flaviviridae family, with a positive single-stranded RNA genome of ˜9.6 kb within the nucleocapsid. The genome contains a single open reading frame (ORF) encoding a polyprotein ofjust over 3,000 amino acids, which is cleaved to generate the mature structural and nonstructural viral proteins. ORF is flanked by 5′ and 3′ non-translated regions (NTRs) of a few hundred nucleotides in length, which are important for RNA translation and replication. The translated polyprotein contains the structural core (C) and envelope proteins (E1, E2, p7) at the N-terminus, followed by the nonstructural proteins (NS2, NS3, NS4A, NS4B, NS5A, NS5B). The mature structural proteins are generated via cleavage by the host signal peptidase. The junction between NS2 and NS3 is autocatalytically cleaved by the NS2/NS3 protease, while the remaining four junctions are cleaved by the N-terminal serine protease domain of NS3 complexed with NS4A. The NS3 protein also contains the NTP-dependent helicase activity which unwinds duplex RNA during replication. The NS5B protein possesses RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RDRP) activity, which is essential for viral replication. It is emphasized here that, unlike HBV or HIV, no DNA is involved in the replication of HCV. Recently in in vitro experiments using NS5B, substrate specificity for HCV-RDRP was studied using guanosine 5′-monophosphate (GMP), 5′-diphosphate (GDP), 5′-triphosphate (GTP) and the 5′-triphosphate of 2′-deoxy and 2′,3′-dideoxy guanosine (dGTP and ddGTP, respectively). The authors claimed that HCV-RDRP has a strict specificity for ribonucleoside 5′-triphosphates and requires the 2′- and 3′—OH groups. Their experiments suggest that the presence of 2′- and 3′-substituents would be the prerequisite for nucleoside 5′-triphosphates to interact with HCV-RDRP and to act as substrates or inhibitors. The present invention on the development of anti-HCV agents is based on this rationale.
Hepatitis D virus (HDV) is classified separately from other hepatitis viruses, but it is often found in association with hepatitis B virus. The host range of HDV is limited to those species that support the replication of a hepadnavirus capable of supplying a helper function. These include the chimpanzee (hepatitis B virus), the eastern woodchuck (woodchuck hepatitis virus) and possibly the Pekin duck (duck hepatitis virus). The successful replication of HDV is dependent on the replication of the helper hepadnavirus. Inhibition of hepatitis B virus, therefore, should result in inhibition of HDV. Also, while HDV appears to employ the host RNA polymerase, it is not clear if the virus causes some modification of the polymerase enabling it to replicate the HDV genome more efficiently. Thus, nucleosides that inhibit the HBV polymerase or the modified host RNA polymerase would be expected to inhibit the replication of HDV.
The synthesis of some related compounds has been disclosed in the literature (Acton, E. M., et al., J. Med. Chem., 1979; 22:518; Fiandor, J., et al., Nucleosides Nucleotides, 1989; 8:1107; Bamford, M. J., et al., J. Med. Chem., 1990; 23:2494; Svansson, L., et al., J. Org.

Moreover, these references also disclose anti-viral test results of some of these compounds against herpes virus (HSV) or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Only 2′,3′-dideoxy-3′-hydroxymethyl-cytidine and adenosine show good activity against HIV and 2′,3′-dideoxy-3′-hydroxymethyl-cytidine (Sterzycki, R. Z., et al., Nucleosides Nucleotides, 1991, 10, 291) and 5-bromovinyl-1-(3-deoxy-3-hydroxymethyl-D-arabinofuranosyl)-uracil (Svansson, L., et al., J. Org. Chem., 1991, 56, 2993) are active against HSV.
Although it would not have been expected that an anti-herpes virus agent or anti-HIV agent would also be effective in the treatment of hepatitis, the compounds of the present invention have surprisingly been found to be useful as anti-hepatitis agents. Some of these compounds are particularly favorable in the treatment of hepatitis because they unexpectedly cause less toxic side effects. For example, we discovered that 3′-deoxy-3′-hydroxymethylthymidine, which, though devoid of activity against murine leukemia virus (MuLV), HIV, HSV-1, HSV-2, human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), Varicella zoster virus (VZV) and Epstein Barr virus (EBV)( Sterzycki, R. Z., et al., Nucleosides Nucleotides, 1991, 10, 291), is a potent agent against HBV.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide compounds and compositions useful for the treatment of hepatitis.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a method for treating hepatitis using the compounds of the present invention.
It is another object of the present invention to provide compositions for treating hepatitis comprising the compounds of the present invention in combination with other anti-hepatitis agents.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a method for treating hepatitis using the compounds of the present invention in combination with other anti-hepatitis agents.
It is still another object of the present invention to provide compounds and compositions useful for the treatment of proliferative disorders.
It is still another object of the present invention to provide a method for treating proliferative disorders using the compounds of the present invention.
It is still another object of the present invention to provide a process for preparing 3′- or 2′-hydroxymethyl substituted nucleoside derivatives.

The term “α-anomer” or “α-nucleoside” is used to describe nucleoside compounds according to the present invention which have a trans-relationship between the base and the 4′-hydroxymethyl group (i.e., a configuration in which the base is oriented in the opposing plane relative to the 4′-hydroxymethyl group of the sugar synthon).
The term pharmaceutically acceptable derivative is used throughout the specification to describe any pharmaceutically acceptable salt or prodrug form (such as an ester, phosphate ester or salt of an ester or a related group) of a nucleoside compound which, upon administration to a patient, provides directly or indirectly the nucleoside compound or an active metabolite of the nucleoside compound. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts forms of the present compounds are also contemplated by the present invention. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts include those derived from pharmaceutically acceptable inorganic or organic bases and acids. Suitable salts include those derived from alkali metals such as potassium and sodium, alkaline earth metals such as calcium and magnesium, and ammonium among numerous other acids well known in the pharmaceutical art.

or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or prodrugs thereof.

Pharmaceutical compositions based upon the compounds of the present invention comprise the above-described compounds in a therapeutically effective amount for treating a viral infection such as an HBV, HCV, HDV or HIV infection or a proliferative disease such as a tumor or cancer, optionally in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable additive, carrier or excipient. One of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that a therapeutically effective amount will vary with the infection or condition to be treated, its severity, the treatment regimen to be employed, the pharmacokinetics of the agent used, as well as the patient or host organism (animal or human) treated.
In the pharmaceutical aspect according to the present invention, the compound according to the present invention is formulated preferably in admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. In general, it is preferable to administer the pharmaceutical composition in orally administrable form, but certain formulations may be administered via a parenteral, intravenous, intramuscular, transdermal, buccal, subcutaneous, vaginal, suppository or other route. Intravenous and intramulscular formulations are preferably administered in sterile saline. One of ordinary skill in the art may modify the formulations within the teachings of the specification to provide numerous formulations for a particular route of administration without rendering the compositions of the present invention unstable or compromising their therapeutic activity. In particular, the modification of the present compounds to render them more soluble in water or other vehicle, for example, may be easily accomplished by minor modifications (salt formulation, esterification, etc.), which are well within the ordinary skill in the art. It is also well within the ordinary artisan's skill to modify the route of administration and dosage regimen of a particular compound in order to manage the pharmacokinetics of the present compounds for maximum beneficial effect in patients.
In certain pharmaceutical dosage forms, the prodrug form of the compounds, especially including acylated (acetylated or other) and ether derivatives, phosphate esters and various salt forms of the present compounds, are preferred. One of ordinary skill in the art will recognize how to readily modify the present compounds to prodrug forms to facilitate delivery of active compounds to a targeted site within the host organism or patient. The routineer also will take advantage of favorable pharmacokinetic parameters of the prodrug forms, where applicable, in delivering the present compounds to a targeted site within the host organism or patient to maximize the intended effect of the compound in the treatment of viral infections or proliferative diseases.
The amount of compound included within therapeutically active formulations, according to the present invention, is an effective amount for treating the infection or condition, in preferred embodiments, an HBV, HCV, HDV, or HIV infection or a proliferative disease, including cancer. In general, a therapeutically effective amount of the present compound in pharmaceutical dosage form usually ranges from about 0.1 mg/patient kg to about 100 mg/patient kg or more, depending upon the compound used, the condition or infection treated and the route of administration. In the case of proliferative diseases including cancer, the active compound is preferably administered in amounts ranging from about 0.5 mg/patient kg to more than 100 mg/kg of the patient, depending upon the pharmacokinetics of the agent in the patient. For purposes of the present invention, a prophylactically or preventively effective amount of the compositions, according to the present invention, falls within the same concentration range as set forth above for therapeutically effective amount and is usually the same as a therapeutically effective amount.
Administration of the active compound may range from continuous (intravenous drip) to several oral administrations per day (for example, Q.I.D.) and may include oral, topical, parenteral, intramuscular, intravenous, subcutaneous, transdermal (which may include a penetration enhancement agent), buccal and suppository administration, among other routes of administration. Enteric-coated oral tablets may also be used to enhance bioavailability of the compounds from an oral route of administration. The most effective dosage form will depend upon the pharmacokinetics of the particular agent chosen, as well as the severity of disease in the patient. Oral dosage forms are particularly preferred, because of ease of administration and prospective favorable patient compliance.
To prepare the pharmaceutical compositions according to the present invention, a therapeutically effective amount of one or more of the compounds is preferably intimately admixed with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier according to conventional pharmaceutical compounding techniques to produce a dose. A carrier may take a wide variety of forms depending on the form of preparation desired for administration, e.g., oral or parenteral. In preparing pharmaceutical compositions in oral dosage form, any of the usual pharmaceutical media may be used. Thus, for liquid oral preparations such as suspensions, elixirs and solutions, suitable carriers and additives including, but not limited to, water, glycols, oils, alcohols, flavoring agents, preservatives, coloring agents and the like may be used. For solid oral preparations such as powders, tablets, capsules, and for solid preparations such as suppositories, suitable carriers and additives including, but not limited to, starches, sugar carriers, such as dextrose, mannitol, lactose and related carriers, diluents, granulating agents, lubricants, binders, disintegrating agents and the like may be used. If desired, the tablets or capsules may be enteric-coated or sustained release by standard techniques. The use of these dosage forms may significantly impact the bioavailability of the compounds in the patient.
For parenteral formulations, the carrier will usually comprise sterile water or aqueous sodium chloride solution, though other ingredients, including, but not limited to, those which aid dispersion, also may be included. Of course, where sterile water is to be used and maintained as sterile, the compositions and carriers must also be sterilized. Injectable suspensions may also be prepared, in which case appropriate liquid carriers, suspending agents and the like may be employed.
Liposomal suspensions (including liposomes targeted to viral antigens) may also be prepared by conventional methods to produce pharmaceutically acceptable carriers. This may be appropriate for the delivery of free nucleosides, acyl nucleosides or phosphate ester prodrug forms of the nucleoside compounds according to the present invention.
In particularly preferred embodiments according to the present invention, the compounds and compositions are used to treat, prevent or delay the onset of viral infections of mammals and in particular HBV, HCV, HDV, or HIV infections in humans. Preferably, to treat, prevent or delay the onset of HBV, HCV, HDV or HIV infections, the compositions will be administered in oral dosage form in amounts ranging from about 250 micrograms up to about 500 mg or more at least once a day, preferably, up to four times a day, though it will be recognized by one of ordinary skill in the art that in some instances a lower or higher dosage may be indicated. The present compounds are preferably administered orally, but may be administered parenterally, topically or in suppository form.
The compounds according to the present invention, because of their low toxicity to host cells in certain instances, may be advantageously employed prophylactically to prevent HBV, HCV, HDV or HIV infection or to prevent the occurrence of clinical symptoms associated with the viral infection. Thus, the present invention also encompasses methods for the prophylactic treatment of viral infections, and in particular HBV, HCV, HDV or HIV infections. In this aspect, according to the present invention, the present compositions are used to prevent or delay the onset of an HBV, HCV, HDV or HIV infection. This prophylactic method comprises administration to a patient in need of such treatment, or who is at risk for the development of HBV, HCV, HDV or HIV disease, an amount of a compound according to the present invention effective for alleviating, preventing or delaying the onset of the viral infection. In the prophylactic treatment according to the present invention, it is preferred that the anti-viral compound utilized should be as low in toxicity as possible and preferably non-toxic to the patient. It is particularly preferred in this aspect of the present invention that the compound which is used should be maximally effective against the virus and should exhibit a minimum of toxicity to the patient. In the case of HBV, HCV, HDV and HIV infections, compounds according to the present invention, which may be used to treat these disease states, may be administered within the same dosage range for therapeutic treatment (i.e., about 250 micrograms up to 500 mg or more from one to four times per day for an oral dosage form) as a prophylactic agent to prevent the proliferation of HBV, HCV, HDV or HIV or alternatively, to prolong the onset of an HBV, HCV, HDV or HIV infection, which manifests itself in clinical symptoms.
It has been recognized that drug-resistant variants of HIV, HBV, HCV, and HDV can emerge after prolonged treatment with an antiviral agent. Drug resistance most typically occurs by mutation of a gene that encodes for an enzyme used in the viral lifecycle; in the case of HBV, DNA polymerase, and in the case of HIV, reverse transcriptase, protease, or DNA polymerase. Recently, it has been demonstrated that the efficacy of a drug against HIV or HBV infection can be prolonged, augmented, or restored by administering the compound in combination or alternation with a second, and perhaps third, antiviral compound that induces a different mutation from that caused by the principle drug. Alternatively, the pharmacokinetics, biodistribution, or other parameter of the drug can be altered by such combination or alternation therapy. In general, combination therapy is typically preferred over alternation therapy because it induces multiple simultaneous stresses on the virus.
Compounds according to the present invention may be administered alone or in combination with other anti-HIV, anti-retrovirus, anti-HBV, anti-HCV, anti-cancer or antibacterial agents, including other compounds of the present invention. Certain compounds according to the present invention may be effective for enhancing the biological activity of certain agents according to the present invention by reducing the metabolism, catabolism or inactivation of other compounds and as such, are co-administered for this intended effect.
The second antiviral agent for the treatment of HIV, in one embodiment, can be a reverse transcriptase inhibitor (a “RTI”), which can be either a synthetic nucleoside (a “NRTI”) or a non-nucleoside compound (a “NNRTI”). In an alternative embodiment, in the case of HIV, the second (or third) antiviral agent can be a protease inhibitor. In other embodiments, the second (or third) compound can be a pyrophosphate analog, or a fusion binding inhibitor. A list compiling resistance data of in vitro and in vivo for a number of antiviral compounds is found in Schinazi, et al., “Mutations in retroviral genes associated with drug resistance,” International Antiviral News, Volume 1(4), International Medical Press 1996.
Preferred examples of synthetic nucleosides that can be used in combination or alternation with the compounds disclosed herein for HIV therapy include, but are not limited to (−) or racemic 2-hydroxymethyl-5-(5-fluorocytosin-1-yl)-1,3-oxathiolane (FTC); the (−)-enantiomer of 2-hydroxymethyl-5-(cyostin-1-yl)-1,3-oxathiolane (3TC); carbovir, acyclovir, interferon, AZT, DDI, DDC, D4T, CS-92 (3′-azido-2′,3-dideoxy-5-methyl-cytidine), and beta-D-dioxolane nucleosides such as beta-D-dioxolanyl-guanine (DXG), beta-D-dioxolanyl-6-chloropurine (ACP), and abacavir.

Preparation of the Compounds
Compounds of formula [I]–[IV], in which X is oxygen, can be synthesized by three routes: (a) from a preformed nucleoside, (b) condensation of a branched sugar with purine or pyrimidine, and (c) combination of the two routes. For example, Bamford et al.(J. Med. Chem., 1990, 23:2494 ) synthesized non-phosphorylated pyrimidine nucleosides of formula [I] in which Y=CH 2 , Z=OH, R 5 is H, CH 3 , I and (E)-5-(2-bromovinyl), E=H or OH, and R 2 =R 6 =O starting from uracil or thymine O-D-pentofuranoside 2′,3′-lyxo-epoxide. Svansson et al.(J. Org. Chem., 1991, 56:2993) prepared a non-phosphorylated methyl 2,3-dideoxy-3-hydroxymethyl-D-ribofuranoside, from which was synthesized the thymine, cytosine and adenine nucleosides via condensation. Pudlo and Townsend (Tetrahedron Letters, 1990, 31:3104) developed a relatively simple method to synthesize non-phosphorylated 5-O-benzoyl-3-benzyloxymethyl-3-deoxy-1,2-O-isopropylidene-α-D-ribofuranose, from which were prepared non-phosphorylated 3-hydroxymethyl analogues of α and β-thymine riboside (Nucleosides Nucleotides, 1992, 11:279) 2′-Deoxygenation of the thymine arabinoside (Bamford, above) or riboside (Pudlo, above) analogue afforded non-phosphorylated 3′ -deoxy-3 ′-hydroxymethylthymidine.
Our method of synthesis of compounds of formula [I] is illustrated in Scheme 1.









The known compound 1 is converted into 2 by the procedure of Pudlo and Townsend. Benzoylation of 2 gives a new compound 3, which is treated with HBr/CH 2 Cl 2 to give the bromo derivative 4. Treatment of 4 with mild base causes benzoyl migration to give rise to 5 which is triflylated to 6. Nucleophilic substitution with a halide or other nucleophile, such as azide or cyanide ion, affords the corresponding 2-substituted arabino derivative 7. Alternatively, 5 can be converted into the 2-fluoro-arabino derivative (7, E=F) by the procedure of Tann and Howell (J. Org. Chem., 1985, 50:3644; J. Org. Chem., 1988, 53:85) Due to the presence of the 2-substituent, bromination of 7 gives the α-bromide 8. Since the 2-substituent is electronegative, 8 is rather stable and undergoes mainly S N 2 nucleophilic substitution upon condensation with silylated purine or pyrimidine base to give almost exclusively the desired β-nucleoside, which after deprotection affords 9 (R=H). Selective 5′-modification will be discussed later.
Pyrimidine nucleosides of formula II can be synthesized by the procedure in Scheme 2. Compound 3 is condensed with silylated pyrimidine according to Vorbruggen's procedure (J. Org. Chem., 1974, 39:3654; Chem. Ber., 1981, 114:1234; Chem. Ber., 1981, 114:1256). Due to the neighboring group participation of the 2-O-benzoyl group, only the desired β-nucleoside 10 is formed. De-O-benzoylation of 10 with base gives 11, which, upon successive treatment with trityl chloride and mesyl chloride in pyridine, is converted into 12. Base treatment of 12 results in the formation of 2,2′-anhydro-nucleoside 13. Treatment of 13 with a nucleophile, such as halogen, gives the ribo-nucleoside 14. Mild acid treatment of 14 removes the trityl group giving 15, which is converted to the free nucleoside 16 (R=H) by catalytic hydrogenolysis or by treatment with BCl 3 in an inert solvent, such as methylene chloride. Further conversion of 16 (R=H) into 5′-modified nucleosides is discussed later.









It should be noted that the same chemistry is applicable to the synthesis of L-nucleoside or racemic counterparts starting from the L-sugar derivative or racemate compound corresponding to 1.
Scheme 3 illustrates an example of the synthesis of purine nucleosides of formula II. Compound 4 serves as the starting material, which is treated with sodio derivative of purine base in an inert solvent, such as acetonitrile or nitromethane, according to Kazimierczuk et al. (J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1984, 106:6379) affords the β-nucleoside 17. Saponification of 17 in base gives 18. When R 8 is not a participating group, such as OH, SH, NHR (R is methyl, ethyl, isopropyl or benzyl), 18 is treated with mesyl chloride in pyridine to afford the di-O-mesylate 19, which is converted into the 2′,5′-di-O-acyl arabino derivative 20 by treatment with alkali metal acylate, such as potassium acetate or sodium benzoate, preferably potassium acetate, in a polar solvent, such as dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide, acetonitrile, hexamethylphosphoric triamide, or nitromethane, preferably dimethylformamide, at a temperature of from 0° C. to 215° C., preferably from 60° C. to 114° C. After saponification of 20, the product is successively treated with trityl chloride and triflyl chloride in pyridine to give 21. Nucleophilic substitution of the triflyloxy group with a halide, azide, sulfide, mercapto, or a like affords the corresponding 2′-substituted ribo-nucleoside 22. Saponification of 22, followed by hydrogenolysis, gives the desired nucleoside 23 (R=H). Selective 5′-modification will be discussed later.









When R 8 is OH, SH or NHR (R=methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, or benzyl) in 19, treatment with sodium benzoate in dimethylformamide leads to the formation an 2′,8-anhydro-nucleoside 24 (Scheme 4). Purine nucleosides of formula II, i.e., 22, are prepared from the O-bridged compound 24(O) by treatment with nucleophiles. The S-bridged compound can be converted into the corresponding 2′-deoxy-nucleoside by Raney nickel desulfurization to 22 (E=H), followed by de-blocking.
















3′,4′-Dihydroxymethyl compounds of formulas [I] and [II], in which X=CH 2 and E=H, are interesting as they have absolutely no anomeric significance as shown in Presentation 2. [A] can be viewed as an analogue of either β-D- or α-D- analogue, while [B], which is the mirror image of [A], is an analogue of both α-L and β-L-nucleosides. We name these nucleosides “ananomeric”.
Presentation 2. Structures of Ananomeric Nucleosides.









2′,4′-Dihydroxymethyl-carba derivatives of formulas III and IV also have interesting structural features: [C] and [D] can be considered as the β-D- and β-L-nucleoside, respectively. They can also be α-isonucleosides (Presentation 3).
Presentation 3. Interesting Structural Features of Carba-nucleosides of Formulas III and IV.









A number of chemically intriguing approaches to the carba-nucleosides of formulas I and II can be sought. The following two methods in Schemes 5 and 6 are used for the racemic products.









Commercially available reagents 25 and 26 (Scheme 5) are treated with triisopropylphosphine and Pd(OAc) 3 in toluene at reflux temperature to give trans-1,2-methoxycarbonyl-4-methylenecyclopentane (27). Ozonolysis of 27 gives the cyclopentanone 28, which, after saponification to 29, is reduced with diborane in dimethylsulfoxide to give trans-3,5-dihydroxymethylcyclopentanone (30). Treatment of 30 with tert-butyldiphenylsilyl chloride in pyridine, followed by catalytic hydrogenation, affords the cyclopentanol 31, in which C-1 is not chiral due to molecular symmetry. Compound 31 is then converted into the halide 32 by treatment with Vilsmeier-Haack reagent or carbon tetrahalide and triphenylphosphine. Treatment of 32 with NaN 3 gives the azido derivative 33, which, upon reduction affords cyclopentylamine 34. Condensation of 34 with β-ethoxy-N-ethoxycarbonylacrylamide (Wilson, L. J., Synthesis, 1995, 1465) furnish the uracil derivative (35, R 2 =O, R 5 =H). By using α-methyl-β-methoxyacryloyl isothiocyanate, 2-thiothymine nucleoside (35, R 2 =S, R=CH 3 ) is obtained. Deprotection of 35 with fluoride ion gives the free nucleoside 36. Various 5-substituted uracil nucleosides are likewise prepared in a similar manner. For the purine nucleoside synthesis, reaction of 34 with 5-amino-2,4-dichloropyrimidine gives 37 (R 6 =Cl), which is cyclized with triethyl orthoformate and then deprotected to a purine nucleoside (38, R 6 =Cl). Alternatively, reaction of 32 with 5-nitro-2,4-diaminopyrimidine followed by reduction of the product gives 37 (R 6 =NH 2 ), which is then converted into adenine derivative 38 (R 6 =NH 2 ). Various purine nucleoside analogues of formulas I and II are prepared from 37. It should be noted that in the synthesis of racemic compounds 27–38, there is no problem of anomeric configuration.
In an alternate route, the readily available racemic xylo analogue 39 (Scheme 6) is converted into the purine and pyrimidine carba-nucleosides (40) by the known procedures (Shaw, J. Chem. Soc., 1958, 2294; Vince, R., J. Med. Chem., 1984, 27:1358; Cusack, N., J. Chem. Soc., Perkin Trans. I, 1973, 1720) Compound 36 is treated with 2,2-dimethoxypropane in acetone in the presence of catalytic amount of p-toluenesulfonic acid to give the 3′,5′-O-isopropylidene derivative 41, which is benzoylated to 42. After acid treatment of 42, the product is tritylated and then oxidized under Bergstrom's conditions (Nucleosides Nucleotides, 1987, 6:53; 1989, 8:1529) to give 43. The ketone 43 is converted into the 3′-methylene nucleoside 44 by Acton's procedure (J. Med. Chem. 1979, 22:518). Hydroboration-oxidation of 44 affords only 3′(α)-hydroxymethyl product 45. Apparently hydride attack occurs exclusively from the least sterically hindered (β)-side. Compound 45 can also be obtained by treatment of 39 with benzyloxymethylene triphenylphosphorane, followed by reduction. Tritylation of 45 followed by O-debenzoylation in base and subsequent deoxygenation by way of xanthate or phenoxythiocarbonate [46, R′=C(S)SMe or C(S)OPh] affords 47. Detritylation of 47 gives the corresponding racemic 2′-deoxynucleoside analogue 36 or 38. Compound 46 in which R is triflyl can be converted to other 2′-modified nucleosides of fromula I and II.









Although optical resolution of the racemate can be effectively performed at the stage of 45 using the Pirkle's method, several routes are developed for the direct synthesis of chiral carba-nucleosides.
L-Arabinolactone (49, Scheme 7) is benzoylated to 50 and then converted into the phosphonate 51 according to Lim and Marquez (Tetrahedron Letters, 1983, 24:5559). Hydrolysis of the hemiketal 51 affords 52, which is oxidized to diketone 53. Subsequent intramolecular Wittig-Homer reaction results in the olefin 54. Reduction of 54 proceeds stereoselectively giving only 55, since the α-side of the carbonyl group and the β-side of the benzoylated hydroxymethyl group are hindered by the presence of neighboring benzoyloxy groups. Chlorination of 55 with thionyl chloride gives the chloride 56 with retention of configuration (characteristics of SOX 2 halogenation). A further treatment of 56 with NaN 3 , followed by reduction should afford enantiomerically pure 34. A sequence of reactions from 34 as outlined in Scheme 5 gives the targeted D-nucleoside analogues of Formulas I and II.









Another alternative is conversion of L-arabinolactone to 5-O-trityl-2,3-di-O-benzoyl-L-arabinolactone (57, Scheme 8), which is treated with lithiobenzyloxymethane to give 58 (stereochemistry of the product is not important at all). Detritylation of 58, then bromination with CBr 4 /PPh 3 affords 59. Arbuzov reaction with P(OMe) 3 gives phosphonate 60, which, upon acid hydrolysis, is converted into the open chain intermediate 61. Intramnolecular Wittig-Horner reaction firnishes the olefin 62. Reduction of 62 proceeds stereoselective manner giving rise to 63 (R=H) which is converted into compounds of formulas I and II via the halogeno intermediate (56 or 64) by procedures described earlier.









For the synthesis of L-nucleoside counterparts, the starting material is the readily-available tri-O-benzoyl-α-D-arabinose (65, Scheme 9). Swern oxidation of 65 affords tri-O-benzoyl-D-arabinolactone (66). Similar sequence of reactions described for the synthesis of D-nucleosides of formulas [I] and [II] from L-arabinolactone gives the corresponding L-nucleosides.









Alternatively, starting from 5-O-trityl-2,3-O-benzoyl-D-arabinolactone (73, Scheme 10), carba-L-nucleosides are synthesized.









The present invention includes the synthesis of nucleosides with general formula [V] in Presentation 4, which are isomeric to compounds of formulas [I] and [II].

Of this class of compounds, 2 ′-deoxy-carba-nucleosides are of particular interest. Such compounds do not have the D and L distinction as shown in Presentation 5. However, there is anomeric configuration the as the all cis-compound [E] (β-nucleoside) is not superimposible to trans-nucleoside [F] (α-nucleoside).
Presentation 5. Nucleosides without D,L Distinction









The β-nucleosides [E] is synthesized as shown in Scheme 11. Compound 56 (described in Scheme 7) is readily converted into 82 by treatment with NaN 3 followed by reduction. After saponification, the product 83 is converted into 3,5-O-isopropylidene derivative, and then deoxygenated to 85 by way of 2-phenoxythiocarbonyl derivative 84. After mild acid treatment to remove the isopropylidene group, the product is tritylated to give 86. Oxidation of 86 under Bergstrom's conditions affords 87, which, upon treatment with benzyloxy-methyltriphenylphosphorane, is converted into 88. Hydrogenation of the latter gives the all cis or β-nucleoside exclusively. Apparently the attack of hydride occurs from the least hindered α-side.









The synthesis of trans or α-nucleosides starts with 55, which is converted into the tetrahydropyranyl derivative 90 (Scheme 12). Saponification in base removes benzoyl groups from 90 to give 91, which is then benzylated to 92 with NaH and benzyl halide in tetrahydrofuran. Compound 92 is hydrolyzed in mild acid, and the product 93 is sulfonylated with mesyl chloride, tosyl chloride or triflyl chloride or the like in organic base, such as pyridine in the presence or absence of 4-N,N-dimethylaminopyridine. The product 94 is treated with NaBr in N,N-dimethylformamide to give the β-halogeno derivative 95, which is further converted into the α-azide 96 with NaN 3 . This reaction sequence, namely, replacement of the participating benzoyl protecting groups with non-participating benzyl groups is necessary. If the protecting groups in 95 are benzoyl, the next reaction gives the β-azide product by the neighboring group participation instead of the desired α-azide derivative 96. Staudinger reduction of 96 with triphenylphosphine selectively converts the azide into the amine giving rise to 97, which is further converted into nucleosides 98 as described earlier. Catalytic hydrogenation, followed by isopropylidenation with acetone and 2,2-dimethoxypropane in the presence of p-toluenesulfonic acid affords 99, which is deoxygenated to 101 by way of the phenoxythiocarbonyl intermediate 100. De-O-isopropylidenation of 101with diluted acetic acid, followed by tritylation gives 102. Oxidation of 102 under Swern's conditions with dimethylsolfoxide and oxalyl chloride to give 3′-ketone, which is treated with triphenylbenzyloxymethylenephosphorane to afford 103. Hydrogenation of 103 occurs selectively from the less hindered α-side giving the desired α-nucleoside 104.

Stereospecific Synthesis of Nucleoside 5′-monophosphates

Antiviral nucleosides must be converted into their corresponding 5′-triphosphates to exert biological activity. If these nucleosides are very poor substrates for nucleoside kinase(s), they will not exhibit significant activity. However, their synthetic monophosphates may be good substrates for nucleotide kinases, and can be converted into the corresponding triphosphates which are expected to become inhibitors or substrates of polymerases. In many cases, among the three successive phosphorylation steps, the first (catalyzed by nucleoside kinase) is rate limiting, and further conversions to the di- and tri-phosphates are catalyzed by less specific nucleotide kinases. Unfortunately, nucleotides cannot be used as chemotherapeutic agents because there are problems of cell membrane penetration and stability toward hydrolyzing enzymes. It has been demonstrated that the monoester of hydrogenphosphonate (H-phosphonate) or methylphosphonate (Me-phosphonate), which has only one dissociable proton, is a weak acid with pKa of 3–4. Such monoester of phosphonate is much more lipophilic than the corresponding phosphate and should be cell membrane penetrable. The phosphonate analogues are known as more apt for cellular uptake than the parent phosphates. Thus, nucleoside 5′-H-phosphonates are synthesized (see, Scheme 14) as prodrugs, which, after entering the cell, are oxidized to their corresponding 5′-phosphates by biological oxidizing systems, such as cytochrome C.
Pyrimidine β-nucleoside 5′-phosphates
Application of the Mitsunobu reaction to chiral nucleoside 48 affords anhydro-derivative 105 (Scheme 13), which is benzoylated to give 106. After mild alkaline hydrolysis of 106, the product 107 is phosphorylated by the Yoshikawa procedure [POCl 3 /(MeO) 3 PO—H 2 O] or the Roescher-Jastorff procedure [POCl 3 /pyridine-acetone] to give nucleotide 108. Saponification of the benzoyl group gives the desired β-nucleoside 5′-phosphate (109). Instead of using the benzoyl protecting group, acid labile protecting group, such as tetrahydropyranyl (THP) or trityl group, or dimethyl-t-butylsilyl (DMBS) can also be used.









Another method for preparation of β-phosphate (109) is to phosphitylate 107 with tris-(1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propyl)phosphite to 110 (Scheme 14). After removal of the benzoyl group in base, the product 111 is oxidized to 109 according to Matulic-Adamic, et al. (Nucleosides Nucleotides, 1993, 12:1085). Compound 111 can be viewed as a prodrug of 109.

Pyrimidine α-nucleoside 5′-phosphates

Direct phosphorylation of 105, followed by base hydrolysis of the anhydro-linkage of product 112 (Scheme 15) gives the β-nucleoside 3′-phosphate (113), which is actually the α-nucleoside 5′-phosphate (Presentation 6). Alternatively, treatment of chiral 48 with CBr 4 -Ph 3 P according to Lee and Nolan (Tetrahedron, 1967, 23:1331) affords dibromide 114. Treatment of 114 with a non-nucleophilic base, such as DBU or DBN, in an inert solvent such as DMF, THF, or a like, affords anhydro-nucleoside 115. Treatment of 115 with tribenzylphosphite causes the Arbuzov reaction giving rise to 116, which is hydrogenated to remove benzyl groups affording 113.

Presentation 6


Purine β-nucleoside 5′-phosphates.

Purine nucleoside is readily converted into the 8-thio-derivative 117 (Scheme 16) via bromination, followed by thiourea treatment. Application of modified Mitsunobu reaction to 117 gives the S-anhydro product 118. After protection of the other primary OH group with a base stable protecting group, such as THP, the product 119 is subjected to mild oxidation with one equivalent of m-chloroperbenzoic acid to convert into sulfoxide 120. Pummerer rearrangement of 120 using benzoic anhydride affords 121. Desulfurization of 121 with Raney nickel to 122, followed by de-O-benzoylation in base gives 123. Phosphorylation of 123 to 124, followed by mild acid treatment furnishes the desired β-D-product 125.

Purine α-nucleoside 5′-phosphates

For the synthesis of α-nucleoside 5′-phosphates, the intermediate 118 is directly phosphorylated to 126 (Scheme 17). Conversion of 126 to the desired cc-nucleotides 130 is achieved via oxidation to 127, followed by Pummerer rearrangement to 128, which is desulfurized to 129 with Raney nickel, and then debenzoylation.









Alternatively, mild acid hydrolysis of 122 affords 131 (Scheme 18). Phosphorylation of 131 to 129, followed by debenzoylation gives 130.

Synthesis of Nucleoside 5′-di- and 5′-triphosphates

Nucleoside 5′-monophosphates described above are converted into their corresponding 5′-di- and 5′-triphosphates by methods known in the art.
Synthesis of Enzymatically Stable Analogues of Nucleoside 5′-di- and 5′-triphosphates as Potential Anti-HBV and Anti-HCV Agents.
It is generally known in the art that certain inactive nucleosides become active against the reverse transcriptase of HIV when they are chemically converted into their corresponding 5′-triphosphates. For example, 3′-O-methylthymidine is inactive against HIV while its chemically synthesized 5′-triphosphate is an exceptionally potent inhibitor of HIV reverse transcriptase. This invention deals with the synthesis of methylenebis(phosphonate) based analogues of nucleoside 5′-di- and 5′-triphosphates. The rationale is based on the fact that a synthetic analogue of the important coenzyme, nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide (NAD) in which the P—O—P is replaced by P—CH 2 —P is reported to enter the cells. The phosphonate analogues, especially the P—F substituted analogues (Presentation 7) are less polar and less ionic than their parent di- or tri-phosphates. They therefore enter the cells relatively with ease. Several attempts have been made to develop prodrugs of nucleoside phosphates. However, the strategy of this invention is rather different than others, because the synthetic targets of this invention are not prodrugs but analogues of nucleoside di- and tri-phosphates which are not susceptible to enzymatic hydrolysis.
















wherein X, R 2 , R 5 , R 6 and R 8 are as defined previously herein.
Scheme 19 illustrates the synthesis of P—F substituted dinucleotide analogues. Addition of sulfur to the known methylenediphosphite tetrachloride (132) produces dithiomethylenebis-(phosphonate) tetrachloride (133), which is hydrolyzed to give 134. Treatment of 107 or 123 with 133 under Yoshikawa-Roeschler's conditions gives the corresponding P 1 -nucleoside-5 ′-yl-methylenebis-(thiophosphonate)s 135. Pyrimidine nucleoside 107 is converted into the 5′-sulfonyl derivative 136. When 136 is treated with the tris(tetrabutylammonium) salt of 134 in a polar solvent, such as dimethylsulfoxide gives the corresponding 135. S-Alkylation of 135 to 137, followed by treatment with fluoride (Bu 4 NF, DAST) gives the protected fluorine substituted derivative 138. After mild deprotection of 138, the desired nucleotide analogue 139 is obtained. These compounds are stable (Sund and Chattopadhyaya, Tetrahedron, 1989, 45:7523; Dabkowski et al., J. Chem. Soc., Perkin Trans. I., 1992, 1447).









In a similar manner, the α-nucleoside 5′-triphosphate counterparts 144 are prepared starting from 105 and 118 (Scheme 20) or their 5′-O-mesylate 141 via the thiophosphonate 140, S-ethyl 142 and the protected P—F intermediates 143.

Synthesis of Nucleoside 5′-triphosphate Analogues.

Two types of triphosphate analogues are synthesized in the present invention. As shown in Presentation 8, one type contains an oxygen between α and β phosphorus, and the other between β and γ phosphorus atoms.
Presentation 8









The starting material for nucleoside triphosphate analogues of [P—O—P—C—P—N] type is 135 (Scheme 21), which is converted into its bis(tetrabutylarnmonium) salt. Treatment of the salt with 2-(imidazol-1-yl)-4-H-1,3,2-benzodioxaphosphorin-4-one (145), followed by sulfurization gives the corresponding P 1 -(nucleosid-5-yl)-P 2 -(thiophosphoryl)methylenebis(dithiophosphonate)s 146. S-Ethylation of 146 with ethyl iodide and potassium carbonate in aqueous solution affords the tri-S-ethyl ester 147, which is treated with DAST to give 148. Alternatively, 137 is directly treated with 146, followed by sulfurization, to give rise to 149. S-Ethylation, followed by DAST treatment affords the desired P—F compound 148.









For the synthesis of [P—C—P—O—P—N] type, nucleoside 5′-H-phosphonate, such as 111, serves as the intermediate. Compound 111 is converted into 5′-thiophosphate 150 (Scheme 22) by methods known in the art. After mild alkylation of 150 with ethyl iodide, the product 151 is converted into imidazolide 152. Treatment of 152 with 134 gives 153, which, after S-alkylation to 154, is converted into the desired triphosphate analogue 155.









In a similar manner, purine nucleoside triphosphate analogues (both α-D, β-D, α-L and β-L) are synthesized.
In the general formulas [I–IV], wherein X=O, Y=NR and Z=OH, 3′-deoxy-3′-hydroxymethylthymidine (B=thymine, Y=NH) has been synthesized (Schreiber and Ikemoto, Tetrahedron Letters, 1988, 29:321 1). Other nucleosides of this type are prepared in a similar manner. In the present invention, special attention is focused to prepare 2′-β-fluorinated derivatives based on our recent development of a method of stereoselective addition of hydroxylamine derivatives to 2-substituted alkenoates (Zhao et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1999, 12:2456; J. Org. Chem., 1999, 64, 4). Thus, butenolide 156 (Scheme 23) is protected with a base-stable group, such as t-butyldimethylsilyl (TBMS), t-butyldiphenylsilyl (TPMS) or tetrahydropyran (THP), to 157. Treatment of 157 with N-substituted hydroxylamine results in exclusive formation of the arabino compound 158, as the nucleophile attacks the least hindered α-face of 157. The N-hydroxyl group of 158 is protected with TBSCl in dry DMF to give lactone 159, which is reduced with DIBAL in methylene chloride to the corresponding lactol 160. The acetate derivative of 160 does not give the coupling product with silylated bases under Vorbruggen's conditions using TMSOTf as a catalyst. However, glycosyl chloride 161, which is easily prepared by employing mesyl chloride in the presence of trialkylamines (1 equiv. of triethylamine and a catalytic amount of tributylamine), is found to be coupled with silylated pyrimidine bases in an inert solvent, such as methylene chloride, chloroform, dichloroethane, tetrachloroethane, acetonitrile, dimethylformamide or a like, at temperature of from 25° C. to 115° C., preferably between 40° C. and 65° C. Protected nucleosides 162 are generally obtained as an anomeric mixture (α:β =˜1:1) in the range of overall 65–70% yields from lactone 159. The two protecting groups are removed to give free nucleoside 163. When these protecting groups are TBMS, they are removed by treatment with tetrabutylammonium fluoride TBAF in dry THF. The α and β anomers are separated by chromatography, and the anomeric configuration of those nucleosides are determined by a well-established rule about the chemical shift of H-4′.









This invention further includes a new and convenient method for making libraries of 3′-N-substituted hydroxylamino-nucleosides of 163. For this purpose, 156 is converted into t-butyldiphenyl-silyl (TBPS) protected derivative 164 (Scheme 24) as a readily available common intermediate instead of 157 for the purpose of selective desilylation later in our synthetic route. The concerted addition of N-methylhydroxylamine to 164 under the aforementioned conditions affords adduct 165 as a single isomer, which is converted into glycosyl chloride 168 after successive TBMS-protection to 166, DIBAL reduction to 167, and MsCl chlorination. Intermediate 168 is then reacted with silylated pyrimidines to form protected nucleosides 169 usually as a mixture of anomeric isomers (about 1:1). The O-TBMS group is selectively removed by the use of 48% HF in acetonitrile in nearly quantitative yields to give hydroxylamines 170.
The unique property of hydroxylamine allows the potential replacement of N-methyl functionality, which is an unusual nitrogen-protecting moiety, by other N-alkyl groups. Thus, nucleosides of type 170 are oxidized with an oxidizing agent, such as yellow mercury (II) oxide or DDQ, preferably DDQ to give the corresponding nitrone intermediates 171, in which the N-methyl group of 170 is selectively converted N-methylene. Hydroxylamine is used to efficiently remove the N-methylene group of the nitrones 171 by exchange reactions in an alkanol, such as methanol, ethanol, n-propanol or isopropanol, preferably methanol at a temperature of from 25° C. to 100° C., preferably 40–50° C. to give key intermediates 172. Aliphatic nitrones are easily obtained by coupling of 172 with different carboxaldehydes, including butyraldehyde, isobutyraldehyde and cyclohexanecarboxaldehyde in alkanol, such as methanol, ethanol, n-propanol or isopropanol or the like, preferably methanol, to give nitrones 173. The corresponding nitrones are then subjected to the in situ reductions by NaBH 3 CN to N-alkyl products 174 and overall yields are in the range of 65–93% for the last two steps. The desired nucleosides 175 are finally obtained by the treatment of TBAF in dry THF in 70–96% yields.









The present invention also includes general methods for stereoselective synthesis of 2′-fluoro-3′-alkylamino-arabinofuranosyl nucleosides by exploitation of the novel hydroxylamine chemistry developed during this invention. Unfortunately, 3′-N-substituted hydroxylamino nucleosides 163, 174 and 175 do not undergo catalytic hydrogenolysis to the corresponding amines. However, when their N-hydroxyl is acylated with a group, such as acetyl, benzoyl, toluoyl, or anisoyl or the like, preferably benzoyl, by treatment with acyl halide, preferably benzoyl chloride, in organic base, such as pyridine or triethylamine or a like, preferably pyridine, the product 176 (Scheme 25) is readily converted into the corresponding N-substituted amino derivatives 177 in high yields by catalytic hydrogenation over 5% Pd—C in alkanol, such as methanol, ethanol, n-propanol or isopropanol, at temperature from 0° C. to 100° C., preferably from 20° C. to 50° C. under a pressure of from 1 to 5 atms, preferably about 1 atm. Deprotection of 177 by treatment with TBAF in THF for 5′-O-TBPS and by saponification for 5′-O-benzoyl protecting group furnishes 3′-(N-substituted amino)-2′-fluoro-2′,3′-dideoxy-arabinofuranosyl nucleosides 178. Alternatively, 158 or 165 is acylated, preferably benzoylated, to 179, which is converted into glycosyl halide 181 by way of DIBAL reduction to 180 and sulfonyl halide treatment. After condensation of 181 with silylated bases, the benzoyl protected nucleosides 182 are obtained. In particular, thymidine analogue (182, B=thymine) is formed as an anomeric mixture in an α/β ratio of 2:3, while only the desired β-isomer is produced for cytosine derivative (182, B=cytosine). Compounds 182 are subjected to hydrogenation in the presence of 5% Pd—C to cleave the N-OBz bond. Compounds 177 (R 3 =CH 3 ) are obtained in very high yields and converted to final nucleosides 178 after treatment with TBAF in THF also in high yields.

Biological Testing

Cell Culture Assay for Activity of Anti HBV Compounds

We follow the protocol described by Korba and Gerin(Antiviral Res., 1992, 19:55) and Pai et al. (Antimicrobial Agents Chemother., 1996, 40:380) which is used widely in the field. The HepG 2 2.2.15 cells contain a stably integrated HBV genome, the transcript from which serves as a template for viral replication. The cells produce virions which are elaborated into the medium. The production of the virion DNA is monitored by analysis of medium by Southern blotting. Drugs which inhibit viral replication reduce the levels of virion DNA in the medium, relative to controls.
For anti-HBV activity program, three cell culture based assays are used for determining the spectrum of antiviral activity and cytotoxicity of novel nucleosides. Two of these assays, the 2.2.15 cell line and the AD38 cell line, allow for the testing against wild type or nucleoside susceptible virus. The third assay, the AD79 cell line, can test for activity against a known mutant virus with resistance to certain nucleoside analogues such as 3TC (lamivudine). Parallel testing in various cell lines allows for a preliminary assessment of the toxicity of the test compounds. Those compounds that demonstrate anti-HBV activity in cell culture without cytotoxicity are candidates for further testing in animal models.
Protocol
For HepG 2.2.15 Cells:
Confluent cells in 24 well tissue culture dishes are treated with test compounds starting at 1 nM and extending logarithmically to 10 μM (1 nM, 3.2, 10 nM, 32, 100 nM, 1 μM, 10 μM 100 μM). Medium is changed daily every 3 days and DNA extracted from the 3, 6, and 10 9 day samples. The virions are concentrated by polyethylene glycol precipitation (equal volume addition of PEG 8000). After cooling on ice the samples are spun and the pellets treated with SDS and Proteinase K followed by Phenol:Chloroform extraction and ethanol precipitation of the DNA. The DNA is analyzed for HBV sequences by Southern hybridization. The probe used for the analysis is a 32 P labeled Eco RI fragment from the HBV clone described by Korba et al. 3TC is used as a positive control compound with known activity against HBV.
This assay reflects the amount of viral DNA in the medium. For compounds which are proven to be effective inhibitors against HBV as compared to 3TC the analysis is extended to the viral DNA forms present inside cells. This is done by DNA extraction from cells, followed by electrophoresis and blotting. Analysis of the Southern blot shows the various replicative intermediates and indicates which stage of replication is blocked.
For AD38 and AD79 Cells:
Antiviral activity in AD38 and AD79 cells was determined as described by Ladner et al. (Antivir. Chem. Chemother., 1997, 41:1715). Briefly, cells were plated into a 96-well microtiter plate in the presence of 0.3 μg/ml tetracycline. After three days, the cell monolayers were washed several times with warmed PBS and treated with medium containing various concentrations of inhibitor. At 3 and 6 days after commencement of drug treatment, the cells were washed with PBS and treated with fresh medium containing inhibitor. At 7 days after commencement of drug treatment, the medium was collected from the wells and clarified by centrifugation. The clarified supernatant fluids were assayed for the presence of HBV DNA by dot blot hybridization and phosphorimager analysis. The concentration of compound that reduced the amount of HBV DNA by 50 or 90% (EC 50 and EC 90 , respectively) was determined by linear regression analysis of the data.
For Cytotoxicity:
We also perform toxicity assays by measuring the inhibition of uptake of neutral red dye by treated cells. These assays are done in 96 well plates. After the standard 10 day treatment regimen medium is removed and PBS containing MTS dye added to each well. After a 2 hour incubation the absorbance of the metabolized product is measured at 490 nm.
Animal Tests
Compounds can be tested in an HBV-transgenic SCID mouse model and determine the in vivo potency and tolerance of the compounds. Additional testing in woodchuck hepatitis model is also available. Compounds that demonstrate both in vitro and in vivo anti-HBV activity are candidates for further preclinical development. The compounds (chosen on the basis of activity determined in the in vitro assay) are tested in the woodchuck model.
Briefly, woodchucks, chronically infected with woodchuck hepatitis virus, are administered compounds intraperitoneally for 14 days. In separate trials, compounds are administered orally. The effect on virus production is monitored by analysis of serum samples for viral DNA and viral surface antigen. Levels of viral DNA are also determined in liver biopsies. Additionally, compounds are tested in chimpanzees infected with HCV for their effect on virus production and clinical hepatitis. Briefly, chimpanzees previously infected with HCV are tested orally with compound for 7–28 days. HCV RNA in blood is measured and liver biopsies are analyzed. Also, SCID mice transfected with human PBMC and infected with HIV can be used to test the anti-HIV activity of compounds.
Hepatitis D Methodology
Hepatitis D virus infection can be studied in the chimpanzee woodchucks and Pekin ducks using procedures well known in the art.
For Anti HIV Evaluation
Human PBM cells from healthy donors, seronegative for HIV-1 and HBV, are isolated by a single-step Ficoll-Hypaque discontinuous gradient centrifugation and propagated as described previously (Schinazi et al., Antimicrobial Agents Chemother., 1990, 34:1061; 1992, 36:2423; 1993, 37:875). Compounds are screened for activity against HIV-1 and cytotoxicity by a protocol reported previously reported by Schinazi, et al. The prototype strain of HIV-1LAI obtained from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, Ga., is used as the standard virus for the studies in human PBM cells.

General procedure for synthesis of 5′-O-tert-butyldiphenylsilyl-2′,3′-dideoxy-2′-fluoro-3′-(N-hydroxylamino)-D-arabinofuranosyl nucleosides (172): To a solution of 170 (1 mmol) in methylene chloride (10 mL) is added a solution of DDQ (0.272 g, 1.2 mmol) in methylene chloride (10 mL) in portion. After the resulting mixture is stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes, it is diluted with methylene chloride (10 mL). The organic solution is washed successively with saturated NaHCO 3 , brine and water, dried over Na 2 SO 4 , filtrated, and concentrated to give crude nitrone, which is purified by a short column over silica gel eluting with 10% methanol in methylene chloride.
To the residue nitrone is added methanol (10 mL) and NH 2 OH.HCl (0.104 g, 1.5 mmol). The resulting mixture is warmed to 50° C. and stirred for 1 hour. After evaporation of methanol, the residue is dissolved in methylene chloride (20 mL). The organic solution is washed with brine, dried over Na 2 SO 4 , filtrated, and concentrated to give crude product which is purified by flash column chromatography over silica gel.

Biological Data


Methodology: The methodologies for identification of the antiviral efficacy of the compounds are standard protocols that are practiced by those skilled in the art. A brief summary of the procedures and the system is outlined below.
System: The most widely used system for the study of anti-HBV agents is the hepatoma cell culture system with the HBV genome. These cells are designated as the 2.2.15 cells, AD38 cells and AD79 cells. The 2.2.15 cells were generated by the transfection of the human hepatoma cells—HepG2 with HBV DNA. (Sells, et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 84:1005–1009, 1987) HBV viral replication takes place in these cells. The HBV replication can be monitored intracellularly as well as extracellularly in these cells.
Assay for Anti-HBV agents: 2.215 cells are grown in multi-well dishes in RPMI medium supplemented with 4% fetal bovine serum. After 3 to 4 days of growing the cells, they are treated with varying concentrations of the test compound(s). The test compounds are dissolved in DMSO or sterile water. Cultures without the addition of the test compounds serve as controls. The addition of the test compound(s) is repeated at 3-day intervals. The medium is changed and replaced with appropriate concentration of the test compound. At the end of the 9-day treatment period, the culture medium is harvested and processed for viral DNA. The viral DNA thus obtained is analyzed by Southern blot analysis. After the Southern transfer, the blot is subjected to hybridization to an HBV specific probe to detect HBV DNA. The hybriodization is carried out overnight. After the hybridization, free probe is removed by washing of the blots. The specific hybridization is visualized by autoradiography. Inhibition produced by the test compound is calculated with reference to the levels of HBV DNA in the control samples.
