Abstract

Provided are compounds of Formula I: and pharmaceutically acceptable salts and esters thereof. The compounds, compositions, and methods provided are useful for the treatment of virus infections, particularly hepatitis C infections.

Claims (42)

1. A method for treating a hepatitis C virus infection in a human patient in need thereof, comprising administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of Formula I:

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, stereoisomer, mixture of stereoisomers, or tautomer thereof, wherein:

A 1 is (C 2 -C 5 )alkylene, (C 2 -C 5 )alkenylene, (C 2 -C 5 )alkynylene, —O—(C 2 -C 4 )alkylene, —O—(C 2 -C 4 )alkenylene, arylene, aryl(C 1 -C 2 )alkylene, heterocycloalkylene, pyrazolylene, pyrimidinylene,

or heterocycloalkyl(C 1 -C 2 )alkylene, wherein a sp 3 carbon atom of A 1 is unsubstituted or substituted with one or more (C 1 -C 4 )alkyl;

A 2 is arylene or heteroarylene, wherein A 2 is unsubstituted or substituted with halo;

X 1 is —O—, —NH—or —N((C 1 -C 4 )alkyl)-;

R 1a and R 1b are independently H, (C 1 -C 4 )alkyl, (C 2 -C 4 )alkenyl or (C 2 -C 4 )alkynyl;

R 2 is H, (C 1 -C 4 )alkyl, (C 2 -C 4 )alkenyl or (C 2 -C 4 )alkynyl;

R 3a and R 3b are independently H or (C 1 -C 8 )alkyl;

R 4a and R 4b are independently H, —OH, (C 1 -C 4 )alkoxy, halo(C 1 -C 4 )alkoxy or (C 1 -C 8 )alkyl;

R 5 is H, (C 1 -C 4 )alkyl, (C 2 -C 4 )alkenyl or (C 2 -C 4 )alkynyl, or

R 5 forms a cyclic moiety along with —N((C 1 -C 4 )alkyl)- of X 1 or arylene of A 2 ; and

R 6 is H or (C 1 -C 4 )alkyl.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein A 1 is ethenylene, propenylene, butenylene, ethylene, propylene, butylene, oxypropylene, oxypropenylene, pyrazolylene, phenylene or pyrimidinylene.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein A 2 is isoquinolinylene, phenylene or halophenylene.

4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein X 1 is —O— or —NH—; one of R 1a and R 1b is H and the other is methyl; R 2 is iso-propyl; R 5 is methyl and R 6 is H or methyl.

5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein R 3a is H or methyl; R 3b is H; R 4a is H, —OH, methoxy, trifluoroethoxy; and R 4b is H.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the compound of formula I is a compound of Formula II:

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, stereoisomer, mixture of stereoisomers, or tautomer, thereof, wherein:

A 1 is ethenlene,

A 2 is

X 1 is —O—or —NH—;

R 3a is H or (C 1 -C 4 )alkyl;

R 4a is H, —OH, (C 1 -C 4 )alkoxy, halo(C 1 -C 4 )alkoxy or (C 1 -C 8 )alkyl; and

R 5 is H or (C 1 -C 4 )alkyl.

7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein A 2 is heteroarylene; A 1 is (C 2 -C 5 )alkylene, (C 2 -C 5 )alkenylene, (C 2 -C 5 )alkynylene, wherein A 1 is unsubstituted or substituted with one or more (C 1 -C 4 )alkyl; R 3a is H or (C 1 -C 8 )alkyl; and R 4a is H, —OH or (C 1 -C 4 )alkoxy.

8. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the compound of Formula I is

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, stereoisomer, mixture of stereoisomers, or tautomer thereof.

9. The method according to claim 6 , wherein A 2 is arylene; and A 1 is (C 2 -C 5 )alkylene, (C 2 C 5 )alkenylene, (C 2 -C 5 )alkynylene, —O—(C 2 -C 5 )alkylene, —O—(C 2 -C 4 )alkenylene, wherein A 1 is unsubstituted or substituted with one or more (C 1 -C 4 )alkyl; R 3a is H or (C 1 -C 4 )alkyl; and R 4a is H, —OH, (C 1 -C 4 )alkoxy or halo(C 1 -C 4 )alkoxy.

10. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the compound of Formula I is

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, stereoisomer, mixture of stereoisomers, or tautomer thereof.

11. The method of claim 6 , wherein A 2 is arylene; and A 1 is pyrazolylene, phenylene or pyrimidinylene.

12. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the compound of Formula I is

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, stereoisomer, mixture of stereoisomers, or tautomer thereof.

13. The method according to claim 1 , wherein A 2 is haloarylene; and A 1 is —O—(C 2 -C 5 )alkylene or —O—(C 2 -C 4 )alkenylene.

14. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the compound of Formula I is

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, stereoisomer, mixture of stereoisomers, tautomer thereof.

15. The method of claim 1 , wherein A 1 is (C 2 -C 5 )alkylene or (C 2 -C 5 )alkenylene; R 5 is methyl, or R 6 form

along with arylene of A 2 , or R 5 form

along with —N((C 1 -C 4 )alkyl)- of X 1 ; and R 6 is H or methyl.

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

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, stereoisomer, mixture of stereoisomers, or tautomer thereof.
