In one aspect, the compounds are useful as adjuvants for enhancing the effectiveness of a vaccine.

Claims (43)

1. A compound of Formula (I), or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof:

wherein:

R 1 is -L 2 R 5 , -L 2 R 6 , —OL 2 R 5 , or —OL 2 R 6

L 2 is C 1 -C 6 alkylene, C 2 -C 6 alkenylene, or —((CR 4 R 4 ) p O) q (CH 2 ) p —, wherein the C 1 -C 6 alkylene and C 2 -C 6 alkenylene of L 2 are optionally substituted with 1 to 4 fluoro groups;

each L 3 is independently selected from C 1 -C 6 alkylene and —((CR 4 R 4 ) p O) q (CH 2 ) p —, wherein the C 1 -C 6 alkylene of L 3 is optionally substituted with 1 to 4 fluoro groups;

R 2 is H or C 1 -C 4 alkyl;

R 3 is selected from -L 3 R 5 , -L 3 R 7 , —OL 3 R 7 ;

each R 4 is independently selected from H and fluoro;

R 5 is —P(O)(OH) 2 ,

R 6 is —CF 2 P(O)(OH) 2 or —C(O)OH;

R 7 is —CF 2 P(O)(OH) 2 or —C(O)OH;

each p is independently selected from 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, and

q is 1, 2, 3 or 4.

2. A compound of Formula (I), or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof:

wherein:

R 2 is C i -C 6 alkyl;

R 3 is —OL 3 R 5 or —OL 3 R 7 ;

R 5 is —P(O)(OH) 2 ;

R 6 is —C(O)OH;

R 7 is —CF 2 P(O)(OH) 2 ;

L 2 is C 1 -C 6 alkylene, and

L 3 is C 1 -C 6 alkylene substituted with 1 to 4 fluoro groups.

3. The compound of claim 1 , wherein:

R 1 is -L 2 R 6 ;

R 2 is C 1 -C 6 alkyl;

R 3 is —OL 3 R 5 or —OL 3 R 7 ;

R 5 is —P(O)(OH) 2 ;

R 6 is —C(O)OH;

R 7 is —CF 2 P(O)(OH) 2 ;

L 2 is C i -C 6 alkylene;

L 3 is —((CR 4 R 4 ) p O) q (CH 2 ) p —;

3-(5-amino-2-(2-methyl-4-(2-(2-(2-phosphonoethoxy)ethoxy)ethoxy)phenethyl)benzo[f][1,7]naphthyridin-8-yl)propanoic acid;

3-(5-amino-2-(2-methyl-4-(3-phosphonopropoxy)phenethyl)benzo[f][1,7]naphthyridin-8-yl)propanoic acid; and

3-(5-amino-2-(4-(2-(2-(3,3-difluoro-3-phosphonopropoxy)ethoxy)ethoxy)-2-methylphenethyl)benzo[f][1,7]naphthyridin-8-yl)propanoic acid.

6. A pharmaceutical composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of claim 1 and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

7. A method for activating a TLR7 receptor, wherein the method comprises administering to a system or a subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula (I) of claim 1 .
