Abstract

The present disclosure provides compounds represented by Formula I: wherein R 1 , R 2 , R 3 , and R 4 are as defined in the specification, and the salts and solvates thereof. Compounds of Formula I are EED inhibitors. EED inhibitors are useful for the treatment of cancer and other diseases.

Claims (48)

X is selected from the group consisting of —C(R 5a )(R 5b )—, —C(═O)—, and —S(═O) 2 —;

R 5a and R 5b are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and C 1 -C 4 alkyl;

Y is selected from the group consisting of —C(R 6a )(R 6b )—, —S—, —O—, and —N(R 7 )—; or

X and Y taken together form a 5-membered heteroarylenyl;

Z is —C(R 6c )(R 6d ) m —;

R 6a and R 6b are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and C 1 -C 4 alkyl;

each R 6c and R 6d is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and C 1 -C 4 alkyl;

m is 0, 1, or 2;

R 7 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, C 1 -C 6 alkyl, C 1 -C 6 haloalkyl, optionally substituted C 3 -C 8 cycloalkyl, optionally substituted C 4 -C 8 heterocyclo, hydroxyalkyl, (alkoxy)alkyl, (cycloalkyl)alkyl, and (heterocyclo)alkyl;

R 8a , R 8b , and R 8c are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halo, C 1 -C 4 alkyl, C 1 -C 4 haloalkyl, C 1 -C 4 alkoxy, carboxamido, optionally substituted C 3 -C 8 cycloalkyl, optionally substituted 4- to 8-membered heterocyclo, (heterocyclo)C 1 -C 4 alkyl, and alkylsulfonyl;

 is a fused phenyl, fused 5-membered heteroaryl, or fused 6-membered heteroaryl;

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

2. The compound of claim 1 of Formula III:

wherein L is selected from the group consisting of —C(R 8b )═ and —N═, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate-thereof.

3. The compound of claim 1 of Formula IV:

wherein L is selected from the group consisting of —C(R 8b )═ and —N═, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

4. The compound of claim 1 , wherein Z is —CH 2 —, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

5. The compound of claim 1 , wherein:
