Carboxamide derivatives and the use thereof as medicaments for the treatment of hepatitis B
Inhibitors of HBV replication of formula (I) including stereochemically isomeric forms, and salts, hydrates, solvates thereof, wherein, X, R 1 to R 7 have the meaning as defined herein. The present invention also relates to processes for preparing said compounds, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use, alone or in combination with other HBV inhibitors, in HBV therapy.
1. A compound of Formula (I)
or a stereoisomer or tautomeric form thereof, wherein:
each of Ra, Rb, Rc, Rd, Re, Rf and Rg is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and methyl;
Rh and Ri are each hydrogen;
R 1 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and fluoro;
R 2 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, fluoro, chloro, —CHF 2 , —CH 2 F, —CF 3, —CN and methyl;
R 3 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, fluoro, chloro and bromo;
R 6 is selected from the group consisting of C 1 -C 6 alkyl and a 3-7 membered saturated ring optionally containing one or more heteroatoms each independently selected from the group consisting of O, S and N, said C 1 -C 6 alkyl or 3-7 membered saturated ring optionally substituted with one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of fluoro, CN, OH and C 1 -C 3 alkyl optionally substituted with one or more fluoro; and
R 7 is hydrogen;
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or a solvate thereof.
2. The compound of claim 1 , wherein
3. The compound of claim 1 , wherein
4. The compound of claim 1 , wherein each of Ra, Rb, Rc, Rd, Re, Rf, Rg, Rh and Ri is hydrogen.
5. The compound of claim 1 , wherein at least one of Ra, Rb, Rc, Rd, Re, Rf and Rg is methyl.
6. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 1 is fluoro.
7. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 2 is selected from the group consisting of fluoro, chloro, —CHF 2 , —CH 2 F, —CF 3 , —CN and methyl.
8. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 3 is selected from the group consisting of fluoro, chloro and bromo.
9. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 1 is fluoro; R 2 is selected from the group consisting of fluoro, chloro, —CHF 2 , —CH 2 F, —CF 3 , —CN and methyl; and R 3 is selected from the group consisting of fluoro, chloro and bromo.
10. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 1 is fluoro and R 2 is methyl.
11. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 1 is fluoro; R 2 is selected from the group consisting of fluoro and chloro; and R 3 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, fluoro and chloro.
12. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 6 is a branched C 1 -C 6 alkyl optionally substituted with one or more fluoro.
13. The compound of claim 1 , wherein R 6 is selected from the group consisting of
—CH 2 (CH 3 ), —CH(CH 3 ) 2 , —C(CH 3 ) 3 , —(CH)(CH 3 )CH 2 CH 3 , —(CH)(CH 3 )CH 2 OH, —CH(CH 3 )CF 3 , C(CH 3 ) 2 CF 3 .
