CA 02496249 2005-02-18

as lithium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide in a solvent
such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, tetrahydrofuran or dioxane in the
presence of water.

In the reactions described hereinbefore, any reactive groups present such as
carboxy, amino, alkylamino or imino groups may be protected during the
reaction by conventional protecting groups which are cleaved again after the
reaction.

For example, a protecting group for a carboxy group may be a trimethylsilyl,
methyl, ethyl, tert.butyl, benzyl or tetrahydropyranyl group and

protecting groups for an amino, alkylamino or imino group may be a formyl,
acetyl, trifluoroacetyl, ethoxycarbonyl, tert.butoxycarbonyl,
benzyloxycarbonyl,
benzyl, methoxybenzyl or 2,4-dimethoxybenzyl group and additionally, for the
amino group, a phthalyl group.

Any protecting group used is optionally subsequently cleaved for example by
hydrolysis in an aqueous solvent, e.g. in water, isopropanol/water, acetic
acid/water, tetrahydrofuran/water or dioxane/water, in the presence of an acid
such as trifluoroacetic acid, hydrochloric acid or sulphuric acid or in the
presence of an alkali metal base such as sodium hydroxide or potassium
hydroxide or aprotically, e.g. in the presence of iodotrimethylsilane, at
temperatures between 0 and 120 C, preferably at temperatures between 10
and 100 C.

However, a benzyl, methoxybenzyl or benzyloxycarbonyl group is cleaved, for
example, hydrogenolytically, e.g. with hydrogen in the presence of a catalyst
such as palladium/charcoal in a suitable solvent such as methanol, ethanol,
ethyl acetate or glacial acetic acid, optionally with the addition of an acid
such
as hydrochloric acid at temperatures between 0 and 100 C, but preferably at
temperatures between 20 and 60 C, and at a hydrogen pressure of 1 to 7 bar,
but preferably 3 to 5 bar. A 2,4-dimethoxybenzyl group, however, is preferably
cleaved in trifluoroacetic acid in the presence of anisol.


CA 02496249 2005-02-18

A tert.butyl or tert.butyloxycarbonyl group is preferably cleaved by treating
with
an acid such as trifluoroacetic acid or hydrochloric acid or by treating with
iodotrimethylsilane, optionally using a solvent such as methylene chloride,
dioxan, methanol or diethylether.

A trifluoroacetyl group is preferably cleaved by treating with an acid such as
hydrochloric acid, optionally in the presence of a solvent such as acetic acid
at
temperatures between 50 and 120 C, or by treating with sodium hydroxide
solution, optionally in the presence of a solvent such as tetrahydrofuran at
temperatures between 0 and 50 C.

A phthalyl group is preferably cleaved in the presence of hydrazine or a
primary amine such as methylamine, ethylamine or n-butylamine in a solvent
such as methanol, ethanol, isopropanol, toluene/water or dioxan at
temperatures between 20 and 50 C.

Moreover, the compounds of general formula I obtained may be resolved into
their enantiomers and/or diastereomers, as mentioned hereinbefore. Thus, for
example, cis/trans mixtures may be resolved into their cis and trans isomers,
and compounds with at least one optically active carbon atom may be
separated into their enantiomers.

Thus, for example, the cis/trans mixtures may be resolved by chromatography
into the cis and trans isomers thereof, the compounds of general formula I
obtained which occur as racemates may be separated by methods known per
se (cf. Allinger N. L. and Eliel E. L. in "Topics in Stereochemistry", Vol. 6,
Wiley
Interscience, 1971) into their optical antipodes and compounds of general
formula I with at least 2 asymmetric carbon atoms may be resolved into their
diastereomers on the basis of their physical-chemical differences using
methods known per se, e.g. by chromatography and/or fractional
crystallisation, and, if these compounds are obtained in racemic form, they
may subsequently be resolved into the enantiomers as mentioned above.


CA 02496249 2005-02-18
32

The enantiomers are preferably separated by column separation on chiral
phases or by recrystallisation from an optically active solvent or by reacting
with an optically active substance which forms salts or derivatives such as
e.g.
esters or amides with the racemic compound, particularly acids and the
activated derivatives or alcohols thereof, and separating the diastereomeric
mixture of salts or derivatives thus obtained, e.g. on the basis of their
differences in solubility, whilst the free antipodes may be released from the
pure diastereomeric salts or derivatives by the action of suitable agents.
Optically active acids in common use are e.g. the D- and L-forms of tartaric
acid or dibenzoyltartaric acid, di-o-tolyltartaric acid, malic acid, mandelic
acid,
camphorsulphonic acid, glutamic acid, aspartic acid or quinic acid. An
optically
active alcohol may be for example (+) or (-)-menthol and an optically active
acyl group in amides, for example, may be a (+)-or (-)-menthyloxycarbonyl.
Furthermore, the compounds of formula I may be converted into the salts
thereof, particularly for pharmaceutical use into the physiologically
acceptable
salts with inorganic or organic acids. Acids which may be used for this
purpose
include for example hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, sulphuric acid,
phosphoric acid, fumaric acid, succinic acid, lactic acid, citric acid,
tartaric acid
or maleic acid.

Moreover, if the new compounds of formula I thus obtained contain a carboxy
group, they may subsequently, if desired, be converted into the salts thereof
with inorganic or organic bases, particularly for pharmaceutical use into the
physiologically acceptable salts thereof. Suitable bases for this purpose
include for example sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, arginine,
cyclohexylamine, ethanolamine, diethanolamine and triethanolamine.

The compounds of general formulae II to IV used as starting materials are
either known from the literature or may be obtained by methods known from
the literature (cf. Examples I to LXXI).

As already mentioned hereinbefore, the compounds of general formula I
according to the invention and the physiologically acceptable salts thereof

have valuable pharmacological properties, particularly an inhibiting effect on
the enzyme DPP-IV.

The biological properties of the new compounds were investigated as follows:
The ability of the substances and their corresponding salts to inhibit the DPP-

IV activity can be demonstrated in a test set-up in which an extract of human
colon carcinoma cell line Caco-2 is used as the DPP-IV source. The
differentiation of the cells in order to induce the DPP-IV expression was
carried out as described by Reiher et al. in an article entitled "Increased
expression of intestinal cell line Caco-2", which appeared in Proc: Natl.
Acad.
Sci. Vol. 90, pages 5757-5761 (1993). The cell extract was obtained from
cells solubilised in a buffer (10mM Tris HCI, 0.15 M NaCl, 0.04 t.i.u.
aprotinin,
TN
0.5% Nonidet-P40, pH 8.0) by centrifuging at 35,000 g of for 30 minutes at
4 C (to remove cell debris).

The DPP-IV assay was carried out as follows:

50 pl substrate solution (AFC; AFC is amido-4-trifluoromethylcoumarin), final
concentration 100 NM, were placed in black microtitre plates. 20 NI of assay
buffer (final concentrations 50 mM Tris HCI pH 7.8, 50 mM NaCl, 1 % DMSO)
was pipetted in. The reaction was started by adding 30 NI of solubilised Caco-
2 protein (final concentration 0.14 pg of protein per well). The test
substances
.to be investigated were typically added prediluted in 20 ill, and the volume
of
assay buffer was then reduced accordingly. The reaction was carried out at
ambient temperature, incubating for 60 minutes. Then the fluorescence was
measured in a Victor 1420 Multilabel Counter, the excitation wavelength being
405 nm and the emission wavelength being 535 nm. Blank readings
(corresponding to 0 % activity) were obtained in mixtures without any Caco-2
protein (volume replaced by assay buffer), control values (corresponding to
100 % activity) were obtained in mixtures with no substance added. The
potency of the test substances in question, expressed as IC50 values, was
calculated from dosage/activity curves consisting of 11 measuring points in
each case. The following results were obtained:

The compounds prepared according to the invention are well tolerated, as for
example when 10 mg/kg of the compound of Example 2(80) were
administered to rats by oral route no changes in the animals' behaviour could
be detected.

In view of their ability to inhibit DPP-IV activity, the compounds of general
formula I according to the invention and the corresponding pharmaceutically
acceptable salts thereof are suitable for treating all those conditions or
illnesses which can be influenced by the inhibition of the DPP-IV activity. It
is
therefore to be expected that the compounds according to the invention will
be suitable for the prevention or treatment of diseases or conditions such as
type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, diabetic complications (such as e.g.
retinopathy, nephropathy or neuropathies), metabolic acidosis or ketosis,
reactive hypoglycaemia, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome,
dyslipidaemias of various origins, arthritis, atherosclerosis and related
diseases, obesity, allograft transplantation and calcitonin-induced
osteoporosis. In addition these substances are capable of preventing B-cell
degeneration such as e.g. apoptosis or necrosis of pancreatic B-cells. The


CA 02496249 2005-02-18
36

substances are also suitable for improving or restoring the function of
pancreatic cells and also increasing the number and size of pancreatic B-
cells. Additionally, and on the basis of the role of the Glucagon-Like
Peptides,
such as e.g. GLP-1 and GLP-2 and their link with DPP-IV inhibition, it is
likely
that the compounds according to the invention are suitable for achieving,
inter
alia, a sedative or anxiety-relieving effect and also for favourably affecting
catabolic states after operations or hormonal stress responses or reducing
mortality or morbidity after myocardial infarct. They are also suitable for
treating all conditions which are connected with the above mentioned effects
and which are mediated by GLP-1 or GLP-2. The compounds according to the
invention may also be used as diuretics or antihypertensives and are suitable
for preventing and treating acute renal failure. Furthermore, the compounds
according to the invention may be used to treat inflammatory diseases of the
respiratory tract. They are also suitable for the prevention and treatment of
chronic inflammatory intestinal diseases such as e.g. irritable bowel syndrome
(IBS), Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis and also pancreatitis. It is also
likely that they can be used for all kinds of damage to or impairment of the
gastrointestinal tract such as colitis and enteritis, for example. It is also
expected that DPP-IV inhibitors and hence also the compounds according to
the invention may be used to treat infertility or to improve fertility in
humans or
mammals, particularly when the infertility is connected with insulin
resistance
or polycystic ovary syndrome. On the other hand these substances are
suitable for affecting sperm motility and can thus be used as male
contraceptives. The substances are also suitable for treating deficiencies of
growth hormone which are associated with reduced stature, and may also be
used to advantage in any indications in which growth hormone may be used.
The compounds according to the invention are also suitable, on the basis of
their inhibitory effect on DPP-IV, for treating various autoimmune diseases
such as e.g. rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, thyroiditis and
Basedow's
disease, etc. They may also be used to treat viral diseases and also, for
example, in HIV infections, for stimulating blood production, in benign
prostatic hyperplasia, gingivitis, as well as for the treatment of neuronal
defects and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, for
example. The compounds described may also be used for the treatment of


CA 02496249 2005-02-18
37

tumours, particularly for modifying tumour invasion and also metastasisation;
examples here are their use in treating T-cell lymphomas, acute lymphoblastic
leukaemia, cell-based pancreatic carcinomas, basal cell carcinomas or breast
cancers. Other indications are stroke, ischaemia of various origins, Parkin-
son's disease and migraine. In addition, further indications include
follicular
and epidermal hyperkeratoses, increased keratinocyte proliferation, psoriasis,
encephalomyelitis, glomerulonephritis, lipodystrophies, as well as psycho-
somatic, depressive and neuropsychiatric diseases of all kinds.

The compounds according to the invention may also be used in conjunction
with other active substances. Therapeutic agents which are suitable for such
combinations include, for example, antidiabetics, such as metformin,
sulphonylureas (e.g. glibenclamide, tolbutamide, glimepiride), nateglinide,
repaglinide, thiazolidinedione (e.g. rosiglitazone, pioglitazone), PPAR-gamma
agonists (e.g. GI 262570) and antagonists, PPAR-gamma/alpha modulators
(e.g. KRP 297), alpha-glucosidase inhibitors (e.g. acarbose, voglibose), other
DPPIV inhibitors, alpha2 antagonists, insulin and insulin analogues, GLP-1
and GLP-1 analogues (e.g. exendin-4) or amylin. Also, SGLT2 inhibitors such
as T-1095, inhibitors of protein tyrosine phosphatase 1, substances which
influence deregulated glucose production in the liver, such as e.g. inhibitors
of
glucose-6-phosphatase, or fructose-l,6-bisphosphatase, glycogen
phosphorylase, glucagon receptor antagonists and inhibitors of phosphoenol -
pyruvate carboxykinase, glycogen synthase kinase or pyruvate
dehydrokinase, lipid lowering agents, such as HMG-CoA-reductase inhibitors
(e.g. simvastatin, atorvastatin), fibrates (e.g. bezafibrate, fenofibrate),
nicotinic
acid and its derivatives, PPAR-alpha agonists, PPAR-delta agonists, ACAT
inhibitors (e.g. avasimibe) or cholesterol resorption inhibitors such as for
example ezetimibe, bile acid-binding substances such as for example
cholestyramine, inhibitors of ileac bile acid transport, HDL-raising compounds
such as for example inhibitors of CETP or regulators of ABC1 or active
substances for the treatment of obesity, such as e.g. sibutramine or
tetrahydrolipostatin, dexfenfluramine, axokine, antagonists of the
cannabinoidl receptor, MCH-1 receptor antagonists, MC4 receptor agonists,


CA 02496249 2005-02-18
38

NPY5 or NPY2 antagonists or R3-agonists such as SB-418790 or AD-9677 as
well as agonists of the 5HT2c receptor.

It is also possible to combine the compounds with drugs for treating high
blood pressure such as e.g. All antagonists or ACE inhibitors, diuretics,
13-blockers, Ca-antagonists, etc., or combinations thereof.

The dosage required to achieve such an effect is expediently, by intravenous
route, 1 to 100 mg, preferably 1 to 30 mg, and by oral route 1 to 1000 mg,
preferably 1 to 100 mg, in each case 1 to 4 times a day. For this purpose, the
compounds of formula I prepared according to the invention, optionally
combined with other active substances, may be incorporated together with
one or more inert conventional carriers and/or diluents, e.g. with corn
starch,
lactose, glucose, microcrystalline cellulose, magnesium stearate,
polyvinylpyrrolidone, citric acid, tartaric acid, water, water/ethanol,
water/glycerol, water/sorbitol, water/polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol,
cetylstearyl alcohol, carboxymethyl ce I lu lose or fatty substances such as
hard
fat or suitable mixtures thereof into conventional galenic preparations such
as
plain or coated tablets, capsules, powders, suspensions or suppositories.
