Abstract

The present invention relates to thiopyrimidine-based compounds that are inhibitors of protein kinases including JAK kinases. In particular, the compounds are selective for JAK1, JAK2 or JAK3 kinases and combinations thereof such as JAK1 and JAK2. The kinase inhibitors can be used in the treatment of kinase associated diseases such as immunological and inflammatory diseases including organ transplants; hyperproliferative diseases including cancer and myeloproliferative diseases; viral diseases; metabolic diseases and vascular diseases.

each R is C 1-6 alkyleneR 9 or OC 1-6 alkyleneR 9 (except when R 9 is NR 5 R 6 or OC 1-6 alkyl, then R is OC 2-6 alkyleneR 9 ); or

R 9 and R together with the groups to which they are attached form a substituted or unsubstituted 5 or 6 membered N-containing heterocyclyl;

W is absent, CO, SO 2 or C 1-6 alkylene;

R 2 is aryl; imidazolyl; (methylenedioxy)phenyl; or aryl substituted with one or more substituents selected from the group consisting of an N-containing 5 or 6 membered heterocyclyl; substituted or unsubstituted OC 1-6 alkyl; NR 5 COR 7 wherein in this instance only, R 5 is H and R 7 is C 1-6 alkyl, C 2-6 alkenyl, C 2-6 alkynyl, CH 2 CN, or CN; NH 2 ; halo; CO 2 R 7 ; SO 2 NR 5 R 6 ; NO 2 ; NHSO 2 Me; CHOHCF 3 CH 3 ; CH 2 NHSO 2 Me; OH; and SH;
