Abstract

Provide herein are compounds and pharmaceutical compositions suitable as modulators of hemoglobin, methods and intermediates for their preparation, and methods for their use in treating disorders mediated by hemoglobin and disorders that would benefit from tissue and/or cellular oxygenation.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A compound of Formula (II):

or a tautomer thereof, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt of each of thereof, wherein
R 3 is C 1 -C 6 alkyl, C 3 -C 8 cycloalkyl, C 1 -C 6 alkoxy, C 3 -C 8 cycloalkoxy, or —NR 1 R 2 ;
each R 1 and R 2 independently is hydrogen, C 1 -C 6 alkyl, C 3 -C 8 cycloalkyl, C 6 -C 10 aryl, 4-10 membered heterocyclyl or 5-10 membered heteroaryl, each containing up to 5 ring heteroatoms, wherein the heteroatom is selected from the group consisting of O, N, S, and oxidized forms of N and S, wherein each C 1 -C 6 alkyl, C 3 -C 8 cycloalkyl, 4-10 membered heterocyclyl, C 6 -C 10 aryl or 5-10 membered heteroaryl is optionally substituted with 1-3 substituents independently selected from halo, C 1 -C 6 alkyl optionally substituted with 1-5 halo, C 1 -C 6 alkoxy, hydroxy, and oxo, or R 1 and R 2 together with the nitrogen atom they are attached to form a 4-7 membered heterocyclyl optionally substituted with 1-3 substituents independently selected from halo, C 1 -C 6 alkyl optionally substituted with 1-5 halo, C 1 -C 6 alkoxy, hydroxy, and oxo;
ring B is a 5-6 membered heteroaryl having 1-3 nitrogen atoms or oxidized forms of N, wherein the 5-6 membered heteroaryl is optionally substituted with 1-3 substituents independently selected from halo, C 1 -C 6 alkyl optionally substituted with 1-5 halo, C 1 -C 6 alkoxy, hydroxy, oxo, COR 15 , and CO 2 R 15 ;
R 15 is C 1 -C 6 alkyl, C 3 -C 6 cycloalkyl, C 6 -C 10 aryl, 5-10 membered heteroaryl or a 4-10 membered heterocyclyl containing up to 5 ring heteroatoms, wherein the heteroatom is selected from the group consisting of O, N, S, and oxidized forms of N and S;
Y is —CH 2 —;
Z is —O— or —CH 2 —;
wherein Y is α or β substituted relative to —COR 3 ;
ring C is pyridinyl, wherein the pyridinyl is optionally substituted with 1-3 substituents independently selected from halo, C 1 -C 6 alkyl optionally substituted with 1-5 halo, C 1 -C 6 alkoxy, and hydroxyl;
wherein Z and —CHO are ortho to each other;
R 4 is OH, halo, C 1 -C 6 alkoxy optionally substituted with 1-5 halo, or C 3 -C 6 cycloalkoxy; and
R 4 and CHO are ortho to each other.

2. The compound of claim 1 , wherein ring B is substituted with 1-3substituents independently selected from halo, C 1 -C 6 alkyl, COR 15 , and CO 2 R 15 ; and
R 15 is C 1 -C 6 alkyl, C 6 -C 10 aryl, 5-10 membered heteroaryl or a 4-10 membered heterocyclyl containing up to 5 ring heteroatoms, wherein the heteroatom is selected from the group consisting of O, N, S, and oxidized forms of N;
each R 1 and R 2 independently is hydrogen, C 1 -C 6 alkyl, or C 3 -C 8 cycloalkyl, wherein each cycloalkyl is optionally substituted with 1-3 C 1 -C 6 alkyl groups, or R 1 and R 2 together with the nitrogen atom they are attached to form 4-7 membered heterocyclyl optionally substituted with 1-3 C 1 -C 6 alkyl groups.

3. A composition comprising a compound of claim 1 and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

4. A method for increasing oxygen affinity of hemoglobin S in a subject, the method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of claim 1 .

5. A method for treating oxygen deficiency associated with sickle cell disease or acute respiratory distress syndrome, the method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of claim 1 .

6. A method for increasing oxygen affinity of hemoglobin S in a subject, the method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a composition of claim 3 .

7. A method for treating oxygen deficiency associated with sickle cell disease or acute respiratory distress syndrome, the method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a composition of claim 3 .

8. The compound of claim 1 , wherein the compound is:

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

9. A composition comprising a compound of claim 8 and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable excipient.

10. A method for increasing oxygen affinity of hemoglobin S in a subject, the method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of claim 8 .

11. A method for treating oxygen deficiency associated with sickle cell disease or acute respiratory distress syndrome, the method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of claim 8 .

12. A method for increasing oxygen affinity of hemoglobin S in a subject, the method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a composition of claim 9 .

13. A method for treating oxygen deficiency associated with sickle cell disease or acute respiratory distress syndrome, the method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a composition of claim 9 .

14. A method for treating sickle cell disease or acute respiratory distress syndrome, the method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of claim 1 .

15. A method for treating sickle cell disease or acute respiratory distress syndrome, the method comprising administering to a subject in need thereof a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of claim 8 .
