THIENO[2,3-D]PYRIMIDINE COMPOUNDS AS INHIBITORS OF ADP-MEDIATED PLATELETS
AGGREGATION
CROSS REFERENCE TO OTHER APPLICATIONS
This application claims priority to U.S. Provisional application number
60/647,340, filed January
26, 2005 and U.S. Provisional application number 60/659,337, filed March 7,
2005.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention comprises a novel class of thieno[2,3-djpyrimidine
compounds having the
structure of Formula I (including tautomers and salts of those compounds) and
pharmaceutical
compositions comprising a compound of Formula 1. The present invention also
comprises
methods of treating a subject by administering a therapeutically effective
amount of a compound
of Formula I to the subject. In general, these compounds, in whole or in part,
inhibit ADP-
mediated platelet aggregation. The present invention further comprises methods
for making the,
compounds of Formula I and corresponding intermediates.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Thrombosis is a pathological process in which a platelet aggregate and/or a
fibrin clot occludes a
blood vessel. Arterial thrombosis may result in ischemic necrosis of the
tissue supplied by the
artery. Venous thrombosis may cause edema and inflammation in the tissue
drained by the vein.
Compounds that inhibit platelet function can be administered to a patient to
decrease the risk of
occlusive arterial events in patients suffering from or susceptible to
atherosclerotic
cardiovascular, cerebrovascular and peripheral arterial diseases. Commercially
available drugs
that inhibit platelet function typically fall within one of three classes of
drugs that antagonize
different molecular targets: (1) cycloxygenase inhibitors, such as aspirin
(see Awtry, E.H. et al.,
Circulation, 2000, Vol. 101, pg. 1206); (2) glycoprotein Ilb-Illa antagonists,
such as tirofiban (see
Scarborough, R.M. et al., Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2000, Vol. 43, pg.
3453); and (3)
P2Y12 receptor antagonists (also known as ADP receptor antagonists), such as
the
thienopyridine compounds ticlopidine and clopidogrel (see Quinn, M.J. et al.,
Circulation, 1999,
Vol.100, pg.1667.
There are several disadvantages associated with use of the P2Y12 receptor
antagonists
ticlopidine and clopidogrel. First, although both compounds selectively
inhibit platelet
aggregation by blocking the P2Y12 receptor, such inhibition is irreversible
and increases the
bleeding risk to the patient. Second, both ticlopidine and clopidogrel each
have a relatively slow
onset of action. Both compounds apparently are prodrugs that first must be
metabolized by the
liver into the corresponding active metabolites. Third, a number of patients
are resistant to
treatment with clopidogrel. Such resistance may result, in whole or in part,
from drug-drug
interactions between clopidogrel and other drugs commonly administered to
atherosclerotic
patients. Fourth, both ticlopidine and clopidogrel have been associated with
side-effects such as
thrombocytopenia in some patients (see Bennett, C.L. et al., New England
Journal of Medicine,
2000, Vol. 342, pg. 1773).

Other compounds have been reported in the literature as useful for the
treatment of
cardiovascular events such as thrombosis:

compounds as
ADP receptor antagonists.

class of
triazolo[4,5-d]pyrimidine compounds as P2T antagonists.
WIPO Int'I Publ. No. W099/36425 Al (published July 22, 1999) describes a class
of tricyclic
compounds as ADP receptor antagonists.
WIPO Int'I Publ. No. W001/57037 Al (published August 9, 2001) describes a
class of
compounds including sulfonylureas as ADP receptor antagonists.
US 5,057,517 (granted October 15, 1991) describes a class of heteroaromatic
compounds
including 6-piperazinopurines as antidiabetic agents.
US 4,459,296 (granted July 10, 1984) describes a class of N-(benzimidazolyl,
indolyl, purinyl or
benzotriazolyl)-piperazine compounds as antihypertensive agents.
Humphries et al. describe several purine compounds as selective ADP receptor
antagonists in an
animal thrombosis model. Trends in Pharmacological Sciences, 1995, Vol. 16,
pg. 179. These
compounds are further described in lngall, A.H et al., Journal of Medicinal
Chemistry, 1999, Vol.
42, pg. 213.
Accordingly, a need still exists for new drug therapies for the treatment of
subjects suffering from
or susceptible to a platelet aggregation mediated condition. In particular, a
need still exists for
new P2Y12 antagonists having one or more improved properties (such as safety
profile, efficacy,
or physical properties) relative to currently available P2Y12 antagonists.

different (unless
otherwise stated).
The prefix "perhalo" indicates that each hydrogen substituent on the
substituent to which the
prefix is attached is replaced with an independently selected halogen
substituent. If all the
halogen substituents are identical, the prefix may identify the halogen
substituent. Thus, for
example, the term "perfluoro" means that every hydrogen substituent on the

cinnolinyl, quinazolinyl, and 1,4-benzoxazinyl.
The term "heterocyclylalkyl" means alkyl substituted with a heterocyclyl.
The term "heterocycloalkyl" means a fully saturated heterocyclyl.
A substituent is "substitutable" if it comprises at least one carbon, sulfur,
oxygen or nitrogen atom
that is bonded to one or more hydrogen atoms. Thus, for example, hydrogen,
halogen, and
cyano do not fall within this definition.
If a substituent is described as being "substituted," a non-hydrogen
substituent is in the place of a
hydrogen substituent on a carbon or nitrogen of the substituent. Thus, for
example, a substituted
alkyl substituent is an alkyl substituent wherein at least one non-hydrogen
substituent is in the
place of a hydrogen substituent on the alkyl substituent. To illustrate,
monofluoroalkyl is alkyl
substituted with a fluoro substituent, and difluoroalkyl is alkyl substituted
with two fluoro
substituents. It should be recognized that if there are more than one
substitutions on a
substituent, each non-hydrogen substituent may be identical or different
(unless otherwise
stated). ,
If a substituent is described as being "optionally substituted," the
substituent may be either (1)
not substituted, or (2) substituted. If a carbon of a substituent is described
as being optionally
substituted with one or more of a list of substituents, one or more of the
hydrogens on the carbon
(to the extent there are any) may separately and/or together be replaced with
an independently
selected optional substituent. If a nitrogen of a substituent is described as
being optionally
substituted with one or more of a list of substituents, one or more of the
hydrogens on the
nitrogen (to the extent there are any) may each be replaced with an
independently selected
optional substituent.
One exemplary substituent may be depicted as -NR'R," wherein R' and R"
together with the
nitrogen atom to which they are attached, may form a heterocyclic ring. The
heterocyclic ring
formed from R' and R" together with the nitrogen atom to which they are
attached may be
partially or fully saturated. In one embodiment, the heterocyclic ring
consists of 3 to 7 atoms. In
another embodiment, the heterocyclic ring is selected from the group
consisting of pyrrolyl,
imidazolyl, pyrazolyl, triazolyl and tetrazolyl.
This specification uses the terms "substituent," "radical," and "group"
interchangeably.
If a group of substituents are collectively described as being optionally
substituted by one or
more of a list of substituents, the group may include: (1) unsubstitutable
substituents, (2)
substitutable substituents that are not substituted by the optional
substituents, and/or (3)
substitutable substituents that are substituted by one or more of the optional
substituents.

CA 02595882 2007-07-25
WO 2006/079916 PCT/IB2006/000172

-If a substituent is described as being optionally substituted with up to a
particular number of non-
hydrogen substituents, that substituent may be either (1) not substituted; or
(2) substituted by up
to that particular number of non-hydrogen substituents or by up to the maximum
number of
substitutable positions on the substituent, whichever is less. Thus, for
example, if a substituent is
described as a heteroaryl optionally substituted with up to 3 non-hydrogen
substituents, then any
heteroaryl with less than 3 substitutable positions would be optionally
substituted by up to only as
many non-hydrogen substituents as the heteroaryl has substitutable positions.
To illustrate,
tetrazolyl (which has only one substitutable position) would be optionally
substituted with up to
one non-hydrogen substituent. To illustrate further, if an amino nitrogen is
described as being
optionally substituted with up to 2 non-hydrogen substituents, then the
nitrogen will be optionally
substituted with up to 2 non-hydrogen substituents if the amino nitrogen is a
primary nitrogen,
whereas the amino nitrogen will be optionally substituted with up to only 1
non-hydrogen
substituent if the amino nitrogen is a secondary nitrogen.
A prefix attached to a multi-moiety substituent only applies to the first
moiety. To illustrate, the
term "alkylcycloalkyl" contains two moieties: alkyl and cycloalkyl. Thus, the
Ci-C6- prefix on
Cl-C6-alkylcycloalkyl means that the alkyl moiety of the alkylcycloalkyl
contains from 1 to 6
carbon atoms; the Cl-C6- prefix does not describe the cycloalkyl moiety. To
illustrate further, the
prefix "halo" on haloalkoxyalkyl indicates that only the alkoxy moiety of the
alkoxyalkyl substituent
is substituted with one or more halogen substituents. If halogen substitution
may alternatively or
additionally occur on the alkyl moiety, the substituent would instead be
described as
"halogen-substituted alkoxyalkyl" rather than "haloalkoxyalkyl." And finally,
if the halogen
substitution may on/yoccur on the alkyl moiety, the substituent would instead
be described as
"alkoxyhaloalkyl."
When a substituent is comprised of multiple moieties, unless otherwise
indicated, it is the
intention for the final moiety to serve as the point of attachment to the
remainder of the molecule.
For example, in a substituent A-B-C, moiety C is attached to the remainder of
the molecule. In a
substituent A-B-C-D, moiety D is attached to the remainder of the molecule.
Similarly, in a
substituent aminocarbonylmethyl, the methyl moiety is attached to the
remainder of the molecule,
H2N H2C-j
where the substituent may also be be depicted as 0 . In a substituent
trifluoromethylaminocarbonyl, the carbonyl moiety is attached to the remainder
of the molecule,
H C" 0
F N~
where the substituent may also be depicted as F F
If substituents are described as being "independently selected" from a group,
each substituent is
selected independent of the other. Each substituent therefore may be identical
to or different
from the other substituent(s).

C. Isomers
When an asymmetric center is present in a compound of Formulae (I) through
(III) the compound
may exist in the form of optical isomers (enantiomers). In one embodiment, the
present invention
comprises enantiomers and mixtures, including racemic mixtures of the
compounds of Formulae
(I) through (III). In another embodiment, for compounds of Formulae (I)
through (III) that contain

CA 02595882 2007-07-25
WO 2006/079916 PCT/IB2006/000172
59
more than one asymmetric center, the present invention comprises-
diastereomeric forms
(individual diastereomers and mixtures thereof) of compounds. When a compound
of Formulae
(I) through (III) contains an alkenyl group or moiety, geometric isomers may
arise.
D. Tautomeric Forms
The present invention comprises the tautomeric forms of compounds of Formulae
(I) through (I11).
Where structural isomers are interconvertible via a low energy barrier,
tautomeric isomerism
('tautomerism') can occur. This can take the form of proton tautomerism in
compounds of formula
I containing, for example, an imino, keto, or oxime group, or so-called
valence tautomerism in
compounds which contain an aromatic moiety. It follows that a single compound
may exhibit
more than one type of isomerism. The various ratios of the tautomers in solid
and liquid form is
dependent on the various substituents on the molecule as well as the
particular crystallization
technique used to isolate a compound.
E. Salts
The compounds of this invention may be used in the form of salts derived from
inorganic or
organic acids. Depending on the particular compound, a salt of the compound
may be
advantageous due to one or more of the salt's physical properties, such as
enhanced
pharmaceutical stability in differing temperatures and humidities, or a
desirable solubility in water
or oil. In some instances, a salt of a compound also may be used as an aid in
the isolation,
purification, and/or resolution-of the compound.
Where a salt is intended to be administered to a patient (as opposed to, for
example, being used
in an in vitro context), the salt preferably is pharmaceutically acceptable.
The term
"pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to a salt prepared by combining a
compound of
Formulae (I) -(III) with an acid whose anion, or a base whose cation, is
generally considered
suitable for human consumption. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are
particularly useful as
products of the methods of the present invention because of their greater
aqueous solubility
relative to the parent compound. For use in medicine, the salts of the
compounds of this
invention are non-toxic "pharmaceutically acceptable salts." Salts encompassed
within the term
"pharmaceutically acceptable salts" refer to non-toxic salts of the compounds
of this invention
which are generally prepared by reacting the free base with a suitable organic
or inorganic acid.

complexes wherein, in contrast to the aforementioned solvates, the drug and
host are present in
stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric amounts. Also included are complexes of
the drug containing
two or more organic and/or inorganic components which may be in stoichiometric
or non-
stoichiometric amounts. The resulting complexes may be ionised, partially
ionised, or non-
ionised. For a review of such complexes, see J Pharm Sci, 64 (8), 1269-1288,
by Haleblian
(August 1975).
F. Prodrugs
Also within the scope of the present invention are so-called "prodrugs" of the
compounds of
Formulae (I) through (III).= Thus, certain derivatives of compounds of any of
Formulae (I) through
(III) which may have little or no pharmacological activity themselves can,
when administered into
or onto the body, be converted into compounds of any of Formulae (I) through
(III) having the
desired activity, for example, by hydrolytic cleavage. Such derivatives are
referred to as
"prodrugs." Further information on the use of prodrugs may be found in "Pro-
drugs as Novel
Delivery Systems, Vol. 14, ACS Symposium Series (T Higuchi and W Stella) and
"Bioreversible
Carriers in Drug Design," Pergamon Press, 1987 (ed. E B Roche, American
Pharmaceutical
Association). Prodrugs in accordance with the invention can, for example; be
produced by
replacing appropriate functionalities present in the compounds of any of
Formulae (I) through (III)
with certain moieties known to those skilled in the art as "pro-moieties'.' as
described, for
example, in "Design of Prodrugs" by H Bundgaard (Elseview, 1985).

1. Pharmaceutical Compositions
For the treatment of the conditions referred to above, the compounds of
Formulae (I) through (III)
can be administered as compound perse. Alternatively, pharmaceutically
acceptable salts are
suitable for medical applications because of their greater aqueous solubility
relative to the parent
compound.
In another embodiment, the present invention comprises pharmaceutical
compositions. Such
pharmaceutical compositions comprise compounds of Formulae (I) through (III)
presented with a
pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier. The carrier can be a solid, a liquid, or
both, and may be
formulated with the compound as a unit-dose composition, for example, a
tablet, which can
contain from 0.05% to 95% by weight of the active compounds. Compounds of
Formulae (I)
through (III) may be coupled with suitable polymers as targetable drug
carriers. Other
pharmacologically active substances can also be present.
The active compounds of the present invention may be administered by any
suitable route,
preferably in the form of a pharmaceutical composition adapted to such a
route, and in a dose
effective for the treatment intended. The active compounds and compositions,
for example, may
be administered orally, rectally, parenterally, or topically.
Oral administration of a solid dose form.may be, for example, presented in
discrete units, such as
hard or soft capsules, pills, cachets, lozenges, or tablets, each containing a
predetermined
amount of at least one compound of the present invention. In another
embodiment, the oral
administration may be in a powder or granule form. In another embodiment, the
oral dose form
is sub-lingual, such as, for example, a lozenge. In such solid dosage forms,
the compounds of
Formulae (I) through (III) are ordinarily combined with one or more adjuvants.
Such capsules or
tablets may contain a controlled-release formulation. In the case of capsules,
tablets, and pills,
the dosage forms also may comprise buffering agentsor may be prepared with
enteric coatings.
In another embodiment, oral administration may be in a liquid dose form.
Liquid dosage forms
for oral administration include, for example, pharmaceutically acceptable
emulsions, solutions,
suspensions, syrups, and elixirs containing inert diluents commonly used in
the art (e.g., water).

-administration.-Compositions-for topical-administration also include; for
example, topical gels,
sprays, ointments, and creams. A topical formulation may include a compound
which enhances
absorption or penetration of the active ingredient through the skin or other
affected areas. When
the compounds of this invention are administered by a transdermal device,
administration will be
5 accomplished using a patch either of the reservoir and porous membrane type
or of a solid
matrix variety. Typical formulations for this purpose include gels, hydrogels,
lotions, solutions,
creams, ointments, dusting powders, dressings, foams, films, skin patches,
wafers, implants,
sponges, fibres, bandages and microemulsions. Liposomes may also be used.
Typical carriers
include alcohol, water, mineral oil, liquid petrolatum, white petrolatum,
glycerin, polyethylene
10 glycol and propylene glycol. Penetration enhancers may be incorporated -
see, for example, J
Pharm Sci, 88 (10), 955-958, by Finnin and Morgan (October 1999).
Formulations suitable for topical administration to the eye include, for
example, eye drops
wherein the compound of this invention is dissolved or suspended in suitable
carrier. A typical
formulation suitable for ocular or aural administration may be in the form of
drops of a micronised
15 suspension or solution in isotonic, pH-adjusted, sterile saline. Other
formulations suitable for
ocular and aural administration include ointments, biodegradable (e.g.
absorbable gel sponges,
collagen) and non-biodegradable (e.g. silicone) implants, wafers, lenses and
particulate or
vesicular systems, such as niosomes or liposomes. A polymer such as crossed-
linked polyacrylic
acid, polyvinylalcohol, hyaluronic acid, a cellulosic polymer, for example,
20 hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, hydroxyethylcellulose, or methyl cellulose,
or a
heteropolysaccharide polymer, for example, gelan gum, may be incorporated
together with a
preservative, such as benzalkonium chloride. Such formulations may also be
delivered by
iontophoresis.
For intranasal administration or administration by inhalation, the active
compounds of the
25 invention are conveniently delivered in the form of a solution or
suspension from a pump spray
container that is squeezed or pumped by the patient or as an aerosol spray
presentation from a
pressurized container or a nebulizer, with the use of a suitable propellant.
Formulations suitable
for intranasal administration are typically administered in the form of a dry
powder (either alone,
as a mixture, for example, in a dry blend with lactose, or as a mixed
component particle, for
30 example, mixed with phospholipids, such as phosphatidylcholine) from a dry
powder inhaler or as
an aerosol spray from a pressurised container, pump, spray, atomiser
(preferably an atomiser
using electrohydrodynamics to produce a fine mist), or nebuliser, with or
without the use of a
suitable propellant, such as 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane or 1,1,1,2,3,3,3-
heptafluoropropane. For
intranasal use, the powder may comprise a bioadhesive agent, for example,
chitosan or
35 cyclodextrin.
In another embodiment, the present invention comprises a rectal dose form.
Such rectal dose
form may be in the form of, for example, a suppository. Cocoa butter is a
traditional suppository
base, but various alternatives may be used as appropriate.
Other carrier materials and modes of administration known in the
pharmaceutical art may also be
40 used. Pharmaceutical compositions of the invention may be prepared by any
of the well-known

-Scheme A. Thienopyrimidines may be prepared by various methods-One-method for
the
preparation of thienopyrimidine 7 is depicted in Scheme A. Commercially
available
aldehyde/ketone 1 and esters 2 are combined in the presence of sulfur to give
thiophene 3 using
the general method of Tinney et al. (J. Med. Chem. (1981) 24, 878-882).
Thiophene 3 is then
treated with potassium cyanate or urea in the presence of water and an acid
such as acetic acid
to give dione 4. Dione 4 is then treated with a chloride source such as
phosphorous oxychloride,
thionyl chloride, or phosphorous pentachloride with or without the presence of
a tertiary amine or
concentrated HCI and with or without added inert solvent such as
dimethylformamide at
temperatures ranging from 75 C to 175 C, optionally with an excess of
phosphorous
oxychloride in a sealed vessel at 130-175 C, to give dichloropyrimidine 5.
Dichloropyrimidine 5
is then treated with piperazine 6 (see Scheme B) in the presence of a base
such as trialkylamine,
pyridine, potassium carbonate, sodium carbonate, cesium carbonate, and other
bases well
known to those versed in the art and in the presence of a solvent such as THF,
acetonitrile,
dichloromethane, dialkyl ether, toluene, DMF, N-methyl pyrrolidinone and the
like at
temperatures ranging from room temperature to the reflux temperature of the
solvent to give
thienopyrimidine 7.

Scheme B. Scheme B depicts the preparation of intermediate 6. Protected
piperazine 8 is
commercially available or carr be prepared by (1) attaching a suitable
protecting group including,
but not limited to, Boc, Cbz, Fmoc and benzyl, to one of the nitrogen ring
atoms of the piperazine
and (2) reacting with alkylOCOCI or (alkylOCO)20). Protected piperazine 8 is
then acylated
using acyl reagent 9, where acyl reagent 9 is used in its acid form (X = OH)
in the presence of a
coupling agent. Suitable coupling agents include, but are not limited to, DCC,
EDC, DEPC,
HATU, HBTU and CDI. In an alternative preparation of intermediate 6, acyl
reagent 9 is used in
the form of an acid halide (X = Cl, Br, F) or anhydride (X = O(COR4))in the
presence of a base,
including, but not limited to, a trialkylamine, pyridine, or an alkaline earth
metal carbonate and in
the presence of inert solvents such as THF, d ich lorom ethane, acetonitrile,
toluene, dialkyl ether,
DMF, N-methylpyrrolidinone, dimethylacetamide and the like at temperatures
ranging between
ice/water temperature to the reflux temperature of the solvent, to give
bisamide 10. Bisamide 10
is converted to piperazine 6 using methods well know to those versed in the
art, many of which
are discussed by Greene and Wuts in Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis,
Third Ed., Wiley-
Interscience, pp. 502-550. When the protecting group of bisamide 10 is a
benzyl group, then
removal of the benzyl group to give intermediate 6 is accomplished using
standard methods
known in the art (e.g., those discussed by Greene and Wuts in Protective
Groups in Organic
Synthesis, Third Ed., Wiley- I nterscience, pp. 502-550).

5 Scheme C. The order of addition of various functionalities to the
thienopyrimidine can be
changed to take advantage of commercially available materials or in order to
avoid reactivities at
other parts of the molecule. An alternative method for the preparation of
thienopyrmidine 7 using
an order of addition differing from that of Scheme A is shown in Scheme C.
Dichloropyrimidine 5
(Scheme A) is aminated with 8 (Scheme B) in inert solvents at temperatures
ranging from room
10 temperature to the boiling point of the solvent to give pyrimidine 11. The
amination may be done
using excess 8 or in the presence of a base, including but not limited to, a
trialkylamine, pyridine,
or an alkaline earth metal carbonate. Removal of the protecting group to give
pyrimidine-
piperazine 12 is achieved using standard deprotection method, such as those
discussed by
Greene and Wuts in Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, Third Ed., Wiley- I
nterscience, pp.
15 502-550. Thienopyrimidine 7 is obtained upon combining acyl reagent 9 (X =
OH) with
pyrimidine-piperazine 11 using coupling reagents, many of which are well known
to those versed
in the art and include but are not limited to DCC, EDC, DEPC, HATU, HBTU and
CDI.
Alternatively, 9 is used in the form of an acid halide X = Cl, Br, F) or
anhydride (X = O(COR4)) in
the presence of a base, preferably a trialkylamine, pyridine, or an alkaline
earth metal carbonate
20 and in the presence of inert solvents including, but not limited to, THF,
dichloromethane,
acetonitrile, toluene, dialkyl ether, DMF, N-methylpyrrolidinone and the like
at temperatures
ranging between ice/water temperature to the ref lux temperature of the
solvent.

Scheme D. Elaboration of thienopyrimidine 7 to substituted thienopyrimidine 14
is accomplished
by treating thienopyrimidine 7 with H-OR2 (13), and where H-OR2 is
commercially available or
may be prepared by methods well-known to those versed in the art. Regaent 13
is combined
with thienopyrimidine 7 in the presence of a base and an inert solvent.
Reagent 13 may be
treated with a strong base and is then added to thienopyrimdine 7.
Alternatively,
thienopyrimidine 7 may be added to reagent 13 after the addition of strong
base. Whichever the
order of addition, in one example, reagent 13 is first treated with a strong
base to form an anion.
Suitable strong include, but are not limited to, alkali metal hydrides (such
as sodium hydride). In
one embodiment, the addition of the strong base to reagent 13, or addition of
reagent 13 to
strong base, is done at temperatures ranging from -30 C to room temperature.
In another
embodiment, the addition of the strong base to reagent 13, or addition of
reagent 13 to strong
base, is done at a temperature from 0 C to room temperature.
To reduce undesired reactions, reagent 13 can be protected first (i.e. R2 is
in a protected form)
namely reagent 13A, to give substituted thienopyrimidine 14A, wherein the
protecting group may
be removed at a later stage to give substituted thienopyrimidine 14. Reagent
13A is
commercially available or may be prepared by methods well known to those
versed in the art.
For example, when R7 is desired to be an alkyl diol, the diol of H-Y-R2 may be
protected using
methods known in the art. Methods for the synthesis and removal diol
protecting groups are
discussed by Greene and Wuts in "Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis,"
Third Ed., Wiley-
Interscience, pp. 201-245.
Alternatively, R2 in 14A may be an alkyl aldehyde or alkyl ketone in its
protected form. Many
protected aldehydes and ketones 13A are commercially available. Conventional
procedures for
the synthesis and removal of aidehyde and ketone protecting groups are known
in the art (e.g.
the procedures discussed by Greene and Wuts in "Protective Groups in Organic
Synthesis,"

CA 02595882 2007-07-25
WO 2006/079916 PCT/IB2006/000172
72
Third Ed., Wiley-Interscience, pp. 201-245.) After removal of the aidehyde or
ketone protecting
group to give substituted thienopyrimidine 14B, the aldehyde or ketone may be
further
manipulated. For example, treatment of an aldehyde with an oxidizing agent
such as 3-
chloroperoxbenzoic acid and the like gives substituted thienopyrimidine 14
where R2contains a
carboxylic acid. Treatment of an aldehyde or ketone with an amine in the
presence of a reducing
agent such as sodium cyanoborohydride, sodium triacetoxyborohydride,
tri(trifluoroacetoxy)borohydride, or hydrogen gas and a metal catalyst give
substituted
thienopyrimidine 14 where R2 contains an amino group.
When R4 is phenyl or heteroaryl substituted with Br, I, Cl, and 0-triflate,
then additional
manipulations of R4 may be carried out using standard methods known in the
art. For example,
aryl- or heteroaryl-boronic acids or esters, many of which are commercially
available, may be
reacted, in the presence of a metal catalyst, with substituted
thienopyrimidine 14A to give biaryl
substituted thienopyrimidine 14C. Thus, treatment with an aryl or heteroaryl
boronic acid or
heteroaryl or aryl boronic acid ester such as [(aryl or heteroaryl)-B(OH)2] or
[(aryl or heteroaryl)-
B(ORa)(ORb) (where Ra and Rb are each C1-C6 alkyl, or when taken together, Ra
and Rb are
C2-C12 alkylene)] in the presence of a metal catalyst with or without a base
in an inert solvent
yields biaryl substituted thienopyrimidine 14C. Metal catalysts in these
transformations include,
but are not limited to, salts or phosphine complexes of Cu, Pd, or Ni (for
example, Cu(OAc)2,
PdC12(PPh3)2, NiC12(PPh3)2). Bases may include, but are not limited to,
alkaline earth metal
carbonates, alkaline earth metal bicarbonates, alkaline earth metal
hydroxides, alkali metal
carbonates, alkali metal bicarbonates, alkali metal hydroxides, alkali metal
hydrides, alkali metal
alkoxides, alkaline earth metal hydrides, alkali metal dialkylamides, alkali
metal
bis(trialkylsilyl)amides, trialkyl amines or aromatic amines.
In one embodiment, the alkali.metal hydride is sodium hydride. In another
embodiment, the
alkali metal alkoxide is sodium methoxide. In another embodiment, the alkali
metal alkoxide is
sodium ethoxide. In another embodiment, the alkali metal dialkylamide is
lithium
diisopropylamide. In another embodiment, the alkali metal
bis(trialkylsilyl)amide is sodium
bis(trimethylsilyl)arnide. In another embodiment, the trialkyl amine is
diisopropylethylamine. In
another embodiment, the trialkylamine is triethylamine. In another embodiment,
the aromatic
amine is pyridine.
Inert solvents may include, but are not limited to, acetonitrile, dialkyl
ethers, cyclic ethers, N,N-
dialkylacetam ides (dimethylacetamide), N,N-dialkylformamides,
dialkylsulfoxides, aromatic
hydrocarbons or haloalkanes.
In one embodiment, the dialkyl ether is diethyl ether. In another embodiment,
the cyclic ether is
tetrahydrofuran. In another embodiment, the cyclic ether is 1,4-dioxane. In
another embodiment
the N,N-dialkylacetamide is dimethylacetamide. In another embodiment, the N,N-
dialkylformamide is dimethylformamide. In another embodiment, the
dialkylsulfoxide is
dimethylsulfoxide. In another embodiment, the aromatic hydrocarbon is benzene.
In another

CA 02595882 2007-07-25
WO 2006/079916 PCT/IB2006/000172
73
embodiment, the aromatic hydrocarbon is toluene. In another embodiment, the
haloalkane is
methylene chloride.
Exemplary reaction temperatures range from room temperature up to the boiling
point of the
solvent employed. Non-commercially available boronic acids or boronic acid
esters may be
obtained from the corresponding optionally substituted aryl halide as
described in Tetrahedron,
50, 979-988 (1994). Alternatively, as described in Tetrahedron, 50, 979-988
(1994), one may
convert the R4 substituent to the corresponding boronic acid or boronic acid
ester (OH)2B- or
(ORa)(ORb)B- and obtain the same products set forth above by treating with a
suitable aryl or
heteroaryl halide or triflate. The protecting group on R'2 of 14C is then
removed using conditions
discussed above to give 14.

Scheme E. The order of addition of various functionalities of the
thienopyrimidine can be
changed in the preparation of substituted thienopyrimidine 14 in order to take
advantage of
commercially available materials or in order to avoid reactivities at other
parts of the molecule.
Another method for the preparation of substituted thienopyrimidine 14 is shown
in Scheme E,
where piperazinyl pyrimidine 11 is combined with reagent 13 where H-OW is
commercially
available or may be prepared by methods well-known to those versed in the art,
to give di-
substituted thienopyrimidine 15. Reagent 13 is first treated with a strong
base and is then added
to piperazinyl pyrimidine 11. Alternatively, piperazinyl pyrimidine 11 may be
added to reagent 13
after the addition of strong base. Whichever the order of addition, in one
embodiment, reagent
13 is first treated with a strong base to form an anion. Suitable strong bases
include an alkali
metal hydride. In another embodiment, the strong base is sodium hydride. In
one embodiment,
the additiori of the strong base to reagent 13, or addition of reagent 13 to
strong base, is done at
temperatures ranging from -30 C to room temperature. In another embodiment,
the addition of
strong base to reagent 13, or addition of reagent 13 to strong base is done at
0 C to room

--temperature. Disubstituted thienopyrmidine 15-is then combined with a
reagent suitable for the
removal of the protecting group to give amine 16. Suitable means for removal
of the protecting
- group depends on the nature of the group: For example, in one embodiment,
the protecting
group Boc is removed by dissolving disubstituted thienopyrimidine in a
trifluoroacetic
acid/dichloromethane mixture. Annother method for removing the protecting
group Boc is the
addition of hydrogen chloride gas dissolved in an alcohol or ether such as
methanol or dioxane.
When complete, the solvents are removed under reduced pressure to give the
corresponding
amine as the corresponding salt, i.e. trifluoroacetic acid or hydrogen
chloride salt. If desired, the
amine can be purified further, for example by recrystallization or other
standard techniques
known in the art. Further, if the non-salt form is desired that also can be
obtained by means
known to those skilled in the art, such as for example, preparing the free
base amine via
treatment of the salt with mild basic conditions. Additional deprotection
conditions and
deprotection conditions for other protecting groups can be found in T.W. Green
and P.G.M. Wuts
in "Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry," John Wiley and Sons, 1999, pp.
502-550.
Thienopyrimidine 14 is obtained upon combining acyl reagent 9 (X = OH) with
amine 16 using
coupling reagents, many of which are well known to those versed in ttie art
and include but are
not limited.to DCC, EDC, DEPC, HATU, HBTU and CDI. In another embodiment, 9 is
used in
the form of an acid halide (X = Cl, Br, F) or anhydride (X = O(COR4)) in the
presence of a base,
including, but not limited to, a trialkylamine, pyridine, or an alkaline earth
metal carbonate, and in
the presence of inert solvents such as THF, dichloromethane, acetonitrile,
toluene, dialkyl ether,
DMF, N-methylpyrrolidinone and the like at temperatures ranging between
ice/water temperature
to the reflux temperature of the solvent.
Depending upon the nature of the various substituents, it may be desirable to
change the order
of addition of the substituents. For example, the protecting group of 11 may
be removed to give
12 as described in Scheme C. Pyrimidine-piperazine 12 may then be reacted with
13 in the
same manner as described for the conversion of 7 to 14 in Scheme D to give 16.
Alternatively,
pyrimidine-piperazine 12 may be reacted with a protected form of 13, namely
13A, to give 17.
Addition of R4C(O)X (9) to 17 gives 14A, which then may be further manipulated
as described for
Scheme D. Alternatively, amine 17 may be converted to 16 by methods described
for the
conversion of 14A to 14 in Scheme D.

0. Biological Protocols
In vitro assays
1. Inhibition of [33P]2MeS-ADP Binding to Washed Human Platelet Membranes.
The ability of a test compound to bind to the P2Y12 receptor was evaluated in
a platelet
membrane binding assay. In this competitive binding assay, the test compound
competed
against a radiolabelled agonist for binding to the P2Y1 2 receptor, which is
found on the surface
of platelets. Inhibition of binding of the labeled material was measured and
correlated to the
amount and potency of the test compound. Data from this assay are presented in
Table F.
Platelet rich plasma ("PRP") was obtained from the Interstate Blood bank,
Memphis, Tennessee.
Platelet rich plasma was prepared from blood units collected in ACD ((prepared
by (1)
combining: 2.5 g sodium citrate (Sigma S-4641); 1.5 g citric acid (Sigma C-
0706); and, 2.0 g
dextrose (Sigma G-7528); (2) bringing pH to 4.5; and (3) adding water to bring
volume to 100
mL) and using the light spin protocol; this protocol involves centrifugation
at room temperature for
approximately 20 minutes at speeds up to 160xg. Platelet rich plasma is
supplied in units of
approximately 200 ml. Each unit is distributed into four 50 mL polypropylene
conical tubes for
centrifugation. Blood from each donor is maintained separately.
The 50 mL tubes were centrifuged for 15 minutes at 1100 rpm in Sorvall RT6000D
(with H1000B
rotor). Internal centrifuge temperature was maintained at approximately room
temperature (22-
24 C). This spin pelleted cellular components remaining from the PRP
preparation.
The supernatant was decanted into fresh 50 mL tubes. To avoid carry over of
cellular
components following the room temperature centrifugation, approximately 5 mL
of PRP was left
in the tube and discarded. The tubes were capped and inverted 2-3 times and
allowed to stand
at room temperature for at least 15 minutes following inversion.
Optionally, a Coulter Counter may be used to count platelets from the resting
samples during the
resting phase. Normal human platelet counts are expected to range from 200,000
to 400,000
per pL of PRP supernatant.
The 50 mL tubes containing PRP supernatant were centrifuged for 15 minutes at
2300-2400 rpm
to loosely pellet the platelets. The supernatant from this spin was decanted
immediately into a
clean cell culture bottle (Corning bottle) and saved in case further
centrifugation was needed.
The pellet of each tube was resuspended in 2-4 mL of Wash buffer (pH 6.5) (1 L
prepared new
daily - 134 mM NaCI (Sigma S-5150); 3 mM KCI (Sigma P-9333); 1 mM CaCl2 (JT
Baker 1311-
01); 2 mM MgCI2 (Sigma M-2670); 5 mM glucose (EM 4074-2); 0.3 mM NaH2PO4
(Sigma S-
9638)/12 mM NaHCO3 (JT Baker 3506-01); 5 mM HEPES pH 7.4 (Gibco 12379-012);
0.35%

BSA (Sigma A-7906); 330 mg Heparin (bovine lung, Sigma H-4898); and 30 mL of
ACD) by
repeated gentle aspiration using disposable polypropylene sample pipettes.
Wash buffer (pH 6.5) was added to each tube to bring the volume to
approximately 40 mL. Each
tube was incubated for at least 15 minutes at 37 C.
The tubes were then centrifuged again for 15 minutes at 2300-2400 rpm to
loosely pellet the
platelets. The supernatant was decanted and discarded. The pellet was
resuspended in 2-4 mL
of Assay buffer (pH 7.4) (1 L volume - 134 mM NaCI; 3 mM KCI; 1 mM CaC12; 2 mM
MgCI2i 5
mM glucose; 0.3 mM NaH2PO4/12 mM NaHCO3; 5 mM HEPES pH 7.4; and 0.35% BSA) by
repeated aspiration using disposable polypropylene sample pipettes. Tubes were
combined and
gently swirled to mix only when all pellets were successfully resuspended;
pellets that did not
resuspend or contained aggregates were not combined.
The pooled platelet preparation was counted using a Coulter Counter. The final
concentration of
platelets was brought to 1 x 106 per pL using Assay buffer pH 7.4. The
platelets were rested for a
minimum of 45 minutes at 37 C before use in the assay.
In one embodiment, the compounds were tested in 96-well microtiter
filterplates (Millipore
Multiscreen-FB opaque plates, #MAFBNOB50). These plates were used in the assay
and pre-
wet with 50 pL of Assay buffer pH 7.4 then filtered through completely with a
Millipore plate
vacuum. Next, 50 pL of platelet suspension was placed into 96-well
filterplates. 5 pL of 2MeS-
ADP (100 pM working stock concentration to give final concentration 5 pM in
well) and 20 pL
Assay buffer were added to background control wells. 25 pl Assay buffer were
added to set of
wells for total binding.
pL of 4X concentrated compound were added in duplicate to the 96-well
filterplates. Next, 25
NL [33P]2MeS-ADP (Perkin Elmer NEN custom synthesis, specific activity -
2100Ci/mmol) was
added to all wells. (1.6 nM working stock concentration to give 0.4 nM final
concentration in well).
25 The mixture was incubated for 60 minutes at room temperature and agitated
with gentle shaking.
The reaction was stopped by washing the 96-well filterplate three times with
100 pl/well of Cold
Wash buffer (1 L volume - 134 mM NaCI; 10 mM Hepes pH 7.4, stored at 4 C) on a
plate
vacuum. The plate was disassembled and allowed to air dry overnight with the
filter side up.
The filter plates were snapped into adapter plates and 0.1 mL of Microscint 20
Scintillation Fluid
(Perkin Elmer # 6013621) was added to each well. The top of the filterplate
was sealed with
plastic plate covers. The sealed filterplate was agitated for 30 minutes at
room temperature. A
Packard TopCount Microplate Scintillation Counter was used to measure counts.
The binding of
compound is expressed as a %binding decrease of the ADP samples after
correcting for
changes in unaggregated control samples.
2. Inhibition of Human Platelet Aggregation
The ability of a test compound to bind to the P2Y12 receptor was evaluated in
a platelet
aggregation assay. In this functional assay, the test compound competed
against an agonist for
binding to the P2Y1 2 receptor, which is found on the surface of platelets.
Inhibition of platelet

aggregation was measured using standard techniques. Data from this assay are
presented in
Table F.
As an alternative to the binding assay which measures a candidate compound's
ability to bind to
the P2Y12 receptor, an assay may be used that measures the effect of the
candidate compound
on cellular function. The candidate compound competes with ADP, a known
agonist, for binding
at P2Y12. ADP is sufficient to induce platelet aggregation; the presence of an
effective
candidate compound inhibits aggregation. The inhibition of platelet
aggregation is measured
using standard techniques.
Whole blood was collected by Pfizer medical personnel from volunteers (100 mL
per volunteer)
in 20 mL syringes containing 2 mL of buffered Citrate. In one embodiment,
buffered Citrate is
0.105 M Citrate: 0.0840 M Na3-citrate and 0.0210 M citric acid. In another
embodiment, buffered
Citrate is 0.109 M Citrate: 0.0945 M Na3-citrate and 0.0175 M citric acid. The
contents of the
syringes were expelled into two 50 mL polypropylene conical tubes. Blood was
combined only
when collected from a single donor. The 50 mL tubes were centrifuged for 15
minutes at 1100
rpm in Sorvall RT6000D (with H1000B rotor). The internal centrifuges
temperature was
maintained between 22-24 C and was operating without using the centrifuge
brake. This spin
pelleted cellular components remaining from the PRP preparation. The PRP layer
was collected
from each tube and set aside. The supernatant was decanted into fresh 50 mL
tubes. To avoid
carry over of cellular components following the room temperature
centrifugation, approximately 5
mL of PRP was left in the tube and discarded.
The 50 mL tubes were placed back into the centrifuge and spun for 15 minutes
at 2800-3000 rpm
(with the brake on). This pelleted out most particulate blood constituents
remaining, leaving a
layer of Platelet Poor Plasma ("PPP"). The PPP was collected and the platelet
concentration
determined using a Coulter Counter. The PRP layer, previously set aside, was
diluted with PPP
to a final concentration of approximately 330,000 platelets/pi with the PPP.
The final preparation
was split into multiple 50 mL conical tubes, each filled with only 25-30 mL of
diluted PRP prep. In
one embodiment, the tube was filled with 5%CO2/95%O2 gas, to maintain the pH
of the prep.
Each tube was tightly capped and stored at room temperature.
The human platelet aggregation assay is performed is performed in 96-well
plate using microtiter
plate reader (SpectraMax Plus 384 with SoftMax Pro software from Molecular
Devices). The
instrument settings include: Absorbance at 626 nm and run time at 15 minutes
with readings in 1-
minute intervals and 45 seconds shaking between readings.
The reaction is incubated at 37 C. First 18 pl of test compound at lOx final
concentration in 5%
DMSO is mixed with 144 pl fresh PRP for 30 seconds and incubated at 37 C for 5
minutes.
Following that incubation period, 18 pl of 200 pM ADP is added to the reaction
mix. This addition
of ADP is sufficient to induce aggregation in the absence of an inhibitor.
Results of the assay are
expressed as % inhibition, and are calculated using absorbance values at 15
minutes.
