Abstract

The present disclosure provides prodrugs of biologically active 2,4-pyrimidinediamine compounds, compositions comprising the prodrugs, intermediates and methods for synthesizing the prodrugs and methods of using the prodrugs in a variety of applications.

Claims (43)

1. A method of inhibiting the release and/or synthesis of cytokines in a cell, the method comprising contacting the cell with a metabolite of the compound of formula (I):

or a salt, solvate, hydrate or N-oxide thereof, wherein:

Y is O;

Z 1 and Z 2 are each, independently of one another, CH or N;

R 2 is lower alkyl, lower cycloalkyl, lower heteroalkyl, lower cycloheteroalkyl, aryl, or a heteroaryl group, each of which is optionally substituted;

R 5 is halo, cyano, nitro, or trihalomethyl;

R 17 is hydrogen, halogen, fluoro, or lower alkyl or, alternatively, R 17 taken together with R 18 are an oxo (═O) group;

R 18 is hydrogen, halogen, fluoro, or lower alkyl, or, alternatively, R 18 taken together with R 17 are an oxo (═O) group;

R 19 hydrogen or lower alkyl, or, alternatively, R 19 taken together with R 20 are an oxo (═O) group;

R 20 is hydrogen or lower alkyl, or, alternatively, R 20 taken together with R 19 are an oxo (═O) group;

R 21 , R 22 and R 23 are each, independently of one another, hydrogen or R P ;

R 24 is hydrogen, lower alkyl or R P , with the proviso that at least one of R 21 , R 22 , R 23 and R 24 is R P ; and

each R P is, independently of the others, —(CR d R d ) y —O—P(O)(OR i )(OR i ), —(CR d R d ) y —O—P(O)(OR i )(OH), —(CR d R d ) y —O—P(OR i )(OR i ) or —(CR d R d ) y —O—P(OR i )(OH), where each R i is, independently of the others, lower unsubstituted alkanyl, substituted or unsubstituted phenyl, or substituted or unsubstituted benzyl;

each R d is, independently of the other, hydrogen, cyano, optionally substituted (C 1 -C 20 ) alkyl, (C 1 -C 20 ) perfluoroalkyl, optionally substituted (C 7 -C 30 ) arylalkyl or optionally substituted 6-30 membered heteroarylalkyl, where each optional substituent is, independently of the others, selected from hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, arylalkyl, heteroaryl and heteroalkyl, or, alternatively, two R d taken together with the carbon atom to which they are bonded are a (C 3 -C 5 ) cycloalkyl; and

y is 1, 2, or 3, and

wherein the metabolite is the product of cleavage of the R p group from the compound of formula (I).

2. The method of claim 1 in which R 5 is fluoro.

3. The method of claim 1 in which R 2 is a phenyl optionally substituted with one or more of the same or different R 8 groups.

4. The method of claim 3 in which R 2 is 3,4,5 tri(lower alkoxy)phenyl.

5. The method of claim 4 in which R 2 is 3,4,5-(trimethoxy)phenyl.

6. The method of claim 1 in which R 17 and R 18 are each methyl and R 19 and R 20 are taken together to form an oxo group.

7. The method of claim 6 in which R 2 is a phenyl optionally substituted with one or more of the same or different R 8 groups.

8. The method of claim 7 in which R 2 is 3,4,5-tri(lower alkoxy)phenyl.

9. The method of claim 8 in which R 2 is 3,4,5-(trimethoxy)phenyl.

10. The method of claim 9 in which only R 21 is R P .

11. The method of claim 10 in which R P is selected from the group consisting of an ester, a thioester, an ether, a thioether, a silyl ether, a thiosilyl ether, a carbonate, a thiourea, an amide, a thioamide, a carbamate and a urea linkage.

12. The method of claim 11 in which R 3 , together with the heteroatom, A, to which it is bonded, is a phosphate group.

13. The method of claim 12 in which R P has the formula —(CR d R d )—O—P(O)(OH) 2 , or a salt thereof, where each R d is, independently of the others, selected from the group consisting of optionally substituted lower alkyl, optionally substituted (C 6 -C 14 ) aryl and optionally substituted (C 7 -C 20 ) arylalkyl; where the optional substituents are, independently of one another, selected from hydroxyl, lower alkoxy, (C 6 -C 14 ) aryloxy, lower alkoxyalkyl, and halogen, or, alternatively, two R d bonded to the same carbon atom are taken together with the carbon atom to which they are bonded to form a cycloalkyl group containing from 3 to 8 carbon atoms.

14. The method of claim 10 in which R P comprises a phosphate ester group.

15. The method of claim 14 in which R P is selected from the group consisting of —(CR d R d )—O—P(O)(OR e )(OH), —(CR d R d )—O—P(OR e )(OR e ),

and salts thereof, wherein each R e is, independently of the others, selected from the group consisting of substituted or unsubstituted lower alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted (C 6 -C 14 ) aryl, substituted or unsubstituted (C 7 -C 20 ) arylalkyl, —(CR d R d ) y —OR f , —(CR d R d ) y —O—C(O)R f , —(CR d R d ) y —O—C(O)OR f , —(CR d R d ) y —S—C(O)R f , —(CR d R d ) y —S—C(O)OR f , —(CR d R d ) y —NH—C(O)R, —(CR d R d ) y —NH—C(O)OR f and —Si(R d ) 3 , wherein each R f is, independently of the others, selected from the group consisting of unsubstituted or substituted lower alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted (C 6 -C 14 ) aryl, and substituted or unsubstituted (C 7 -C 20 ) arylalkyl;

each R g is, independently of the others, selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and lower alkyl; each R h is, independently of the others, selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted lower alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted lower cycloheteroalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted (C 6 -C 14 ) aryl, substituted or unsubstituted (C 7 -C 20 ) arylalkyl and substituted or unsubstituted 5-14 membered heteroaryl; y is an integer ranging from 1 to 3; z is an integer ranging from 0 to 2; and

each R d is independently of the others, selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, optionally substituted lower alkyl, optionally substituted (C 6 -C 14 ) aryl and optionally substituted (C 7 -C 20 ) arylalkyl; where the optional substituents are, independently of one another, selected from hydroxyl, lower alkoxy, (C 6 -C 14 ) aryloxy, lower alkoxyalkyl, and halogen, or, alternatively, two R d bonded to the same carbon atom are taken together with the carbon atom to which they are bonded to form a cycloalkyl group containing from 3 to 8 carbon atoms.

16. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the compound is

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt and/or hydrate thereof.

17. The method of claim 16 , wherein the compound or the pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is in the form of a hydrate.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the compound is a free acid.
