Nedometinib

Nedometinib

CAS 2252314-46-6

NFX-179, K5T4I78IYZ

Molecular Weight470.24
FormulaC17H16FIN4O3

2-(2-fluoro-4-iodoanilino)-N-(2-hydroxyethoxy)-1-methylpyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carboxamide

Nedometinib (NFX-179) is a specific MEK1 inhibitor with an IC50 of 135 nM. Nedometinib inhibits p-ERK, MAPK. Nedometinib exerts anticancer activity against squamous cell carcinoma. Nedometinib can be used for research in dermatosis, neurofibromatosis.

Nedometinib is a topical gel formulation composed of an inhibitor of mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAP2K; MAPKK; MEK), with potential antineoplastic activity. Upon topical administration, nedometinib penetrates into the dermis of the skin where it specifically targets, binds to and inhibits the catalytic activity of MEK, thereby inhibiting the activation of MEK-dependent effector proteins including extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and inhibits the proliferation of tumor cells in which the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK signaling pathway is overactivated. The threonine/tyrosine protein kinase MEK plays a key role in the RAS/RAF/MEK/ERK signaling pathway, which is frequently upregulated in a variety of tumor cell types and regulates key cellular activities including cell growth, proliferation, survival, differentiation and apoptosis. Rapid degradation of NFX-179 upon reaching the systemic circulation minimizes side effects caused by systemic exposure.

Example 2: 2-((2-Fluoro-4-iodophenyl)amino)—N-(2-hydroxyethoxy)-1-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carboxamide

2-((2-Fluoro-4-iodophenyl)amino)-1-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carbonyl chloride

      
 (MOL) (CDX)
      To tert-butyl 2-((2-fluoro-4-iodophenyl)amino)-1-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carboxylate (0.6 g, 1.3 mmol), thionyl chloride (0.9 mL, 12.8 mmol) was added followed by H 2O (23 μL). The flask was sealed with a rubber septum and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 h. The mixture was concentrated to dryness in vacuo to give the product (0.5 g, 94%) as a beige solid. UPLC-MS (Acidic Method, 2 min): rt 1.28 min, m/z 426.0 [M+H] + (detected as the corresponding methyl ester after quenching an aliquot of the mixture with MeOH).
      Alternative preparation: A stirred solution of tert-butyl 2-((2-fluoro-4-iodophenyl)amino)-1-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carboxylate (5.00 g, 10.7 mmol) in anhydrous 1,4-dioxane (28 mL) was treated with thionyl chloride (7.7 mL, 107 mmol) at ambient temperature, followed by a 4 N solution of hydrogen chloride in 1,4-dioxane (14 mL, 5.35 mmol), and the resulting mixture was heated to 50° C. for 48 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to 40° C. and subjected to a continuous distillation process under vacuum from anhydrous toluene (maintaining the total volume of the batch around 30 mL) to remove the thionyl chloride and 1,4-dioxane. The resulting dark grey suspension of 2-((2-fluoro-4-iodophenyl)amino)-1-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carbonyl chloride was used in subsequent steps without further purification. UPLC-MS (Acidic Method, 2 min): rt 1.29 min, m/z 426.0 [M+H] + (following the quenching of an aliquot of the batch into methanol to give the corresponding methyl ester).

Alternative 1 for the preparation of 2-((2-Fluoro-4-iodophenyl)amino)—N-(2-hydroxyethoxy)-1-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carboxamide

      
 (MOL) (CDX)
      A solution of 2-((2-fluoro-4-iodophenyl)amino)-1-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carbonyl chloride (460 mg, 1.07 mmol) in dry DCM (27 mL) was cooled to 0° C. in an ice bath and then treated with dry pyridine (970 μL, 11.98 mmol) and the mixture was stirred for 15 min followed by an addition of (2-aminooxy)ethanol (124 mg, 1.61 mmol) in dry DCM (2 mL). The mixture was stirred for 15 min, then diluted with DCM and acidified with 1 M citric acid aqueous solution to pH 3. The organic phase was washed with H 2O, brine, dried over Na 2SO 4 and concentrated in vacuo. The crude was purified by preparative HPLC to give the product (181 mg, 36%) as a white solid. UPLC-MS (Acidic Method, 4 min): rt 2.67 min, m/z 471.2 [M+H] +. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d 6) δ ppm 10.84 (br s, 1H), 8.69 (br s, 1H), 8.25 (dd, J=4.8, 1.4 Hz, 1H), 8.13 (dd, J=7.9, 1.5 Hz, 1H), 7.63 (dd, J=10.8, 1.9 Hz, 1H), 7.33 (dd, J=8.5, 1.1 Hz, 1H), 7.21 (dd, J=7.8, 4.8 Hz, 1H), 6.52 (t, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 4.74 (br s, 1H), 3.79 (t, J=4.9 Hz, 2H), 3.48-3.54 (m, 5H)

Alternative 2 for the Preparation of 2-((2-Fluoro-4-iodophenyl)amino)—N-(2-hydroxyethoxy)-1-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carboxamide

      To a solution of 2-(aminooxy)ethanol (8.41 g, 109 mmol) in anhydrous THF (20 mL) at 0° C. was added a suspension of 2-((2-fluoro-4-iodophenyl)amino)-1-methyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine-3-carbonyl chloride (9.37 g, 21.8 mmol) in anhydrous THF (80 mL) and residual toluene via syringe. After 40 minutes UPLC analysis showed complete conversion. The reaction mixture was partitioned between EtOAc (300 mL) and H 2O (300 mL), the biphasic mixture was filtered and the organic layer separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc (200 mL) and the organics combined, washed with brine, dried over Na 2SO 4 and the solvent removed in vacuo. The crude solid was suspended in EtOAc (40 mL, 4 volumes), stirred over the weekend and filtered to give the desired product (7.45 g, 73%) as a dark beige solid which can be recrystallized from anisole. UPLC-MS (Acidic Method, 2 min): rt 1.01 min, m/z 471.2 [M+H] +. 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-d 6) δ ppm 10.84 (br s, 1H), 8.69 (br s, 1H), 8.25 (dd, J=4.8, 1.4 Hz, 1H), 8.13 (dd, J=7.9, 1.5 Hz, 1H), 7.63 (dd, J=10.8, 1.9 Hz, 1H), 7.33 (dd, J=8.5, 1.1 Hz, 1H), 7.21 (dd, J=7.8, 4.8 Hz, 1H), 6.52 (t, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 4.74 (br s, 1H), 3.79 (t, J=4.9 Hz, 2H), 3.48-3.54 (m, 5H).
