ABSTRACT: Silanediol peptidomimetics have been prepared, designed to inhibit the serine protease enzyme Factor XIa (FXIa) for treatment of thrombosis without complete interruption of normal hemostasis. These Arg-[Si]-Ala analogs of the FXIa substrate (FIX) are the first silanediol dipeptide analogs to carry a basic guanidine group. Control of stereochemistry was accomplished using catalytic asymmetric hydrosilylation and addition of a silyllithium intermediate to the Davis-Ellman sulfinimine.

INTRODUCTION Coagulation is a critical component of blood chemistry, intrinsic to maintaining the integrity of the circulatory system, and is therefore carefully regulated.1 Rapid response of coagulation to an injury is accomplished through a cascade of serine protease enzymes in which the proteases (e.g., Factor XIIa, Figure 1) cleave and activate other serine protease precursors (i.e., Factor XI → Factor XIa) that activate other serine proteases (FIX → FIXa, for example) and so on.2 While arresting blood flow (hemostasis) through coagulation (clotting) is obviously important, prevention of clotting can be a priority immediately following a stroke, for example. Stroke therapy with an anticoagulant that can also avoid hemorrhage would have an important advantage. It has been suggested that FIXa would be an optimal target for such a therapeutic species.3 Our silicon-based protease inhibitors employ silanediols embedded within a peptide or peptide-like structure.4 Biologically active organosilanes have been studied for more than half a century.5-13 The silanediol was conceived as a mimic of a hydrated carbonyl, anticipating that such a functional group, replacing a protease-targeted amide, would be recognized and held tightly at the enzyme active site, resulting in inhibition.4,14 Dialkylsilanediols, as non-hydrolyzable analogues of the tetrahedral intermediate of amide hydrolysis, have been found to be low nanomolar inhibitors of enzymes representing three of the four classes of protease enzymes (they have not yet been tested with cysteine proteases). These include inhibitors of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) and thermolysin,15-19 both metalloprotease, the aspartic protease the HIV-1 protease,20 and the serine protease α-chymotrypsin.21 In all of these cases the silanediol

inhibitor was designed by analogy to previously described carbon- or phosphorous-based inhibitors of those enzymes. SURFACE DAMAGE unactivated factor

The importance of the coagulation cascade in an array of diseases,22 the potential for modulation by serine protease inhibition and the fact that few small molecule inhibitors had yet been described, made inhibition of Factor XIa of great interest.23-27 In addition, the polar amino acid sequence adjacent to the amide bond cleavage site would allow us to explore the use of our silanediol synthesis strategy in a challenging chemical environment. We describe here our design approach and construction of the FXIa inhibitor.

INHIBITOR DESIGN The substrate for Factor XIa is Factor IX, a 461 amino acid protein that contains a key disulfide bond. Transformation of Factor IX into its activated form Factor IXa involves two sequential amide bond cleavages, Figure 2. In both cases the cleavage sites are flanked by an arginine residue and a lipophilic group. The Arg145–Ala146 amide is cleaved first, followed by Arg180– Val181.28

The requisite sulfinimines 7 and 8 were prepared from 1,4butanediol by protecting the diol with a methoxymethyl group followed by PCC oxidation, Scheme 2. Monoprotection of the diol suffered from the expected low selectivity and distillation of the mixture gave a 53% yield of the desired mono-protected diol mixed with the doubly protected diol in a ratio of 9:1. Following oxidation of the alcohol with PCC, the pure aldehyde 6 could be isolated by distillation (60%).33 While the overall yield of this aldehyde was modest, the procedure was practical and could easily be used to prepare tens of grams of product. Condensation of the aldehyde with the Ellman and Davis (R)-sulfinamines gave the sulfinimines 7 and 8, respectively, both in 72% yield. Scheme 2. Sulfinimines synthesis.

Figure 2. The Factor XIa two cleavage sites of Factor IX. Based on the cleavage sites for FIXa, the silanediol dipeptide mimic 1 in Scheme 1 was chosen as our first target from which we could build inhibitors. This unit would carry the presumably critical guanidinyl propyl side chain and the simpler of the two lipophilic side chains, the methyl group of the alanine-192 residue. Cleavage of the Arg145–Ala146 amide is also the first proteolytic cleavage of the Factor IX activation pathway. The presence of the very polar guanidinium side chain was expected to make synthesis of 1 and its derivatives more challenging than previously prepared silanediol inhibitors, and therefore this would be a good substrate with which to evaluate the preparative chemistry developed in our lab. Initially, this dipeptide mimic would be coupled with amino acids at the amine and acid ends to probe nearby substrate recognition sites. The target 1 was anticipated to be derived from 2 in which the silanediol is carried as an acid-labile and chemically robust diphenylsilyl moiety, where hydrolysis/deprotection of the silanediol would be the last step of enzyme inhibitor synthesis.4 The guanidine would be installed from an alcohol precursor. Intermediate 2 would be prepared by reacting a Davis-Ellman sulfinimine 329,30 with a silyllithium reagent derived from homochiral 4.31 Protocols originally developed by Nielsen and Skrydstrup for the addition of diphenylsilyllithium reagents to sulfinimines have been found to give complete control of the alpha-amino silane stereogenic center.32

With the two sulfinimines in hand, the requisite silyllithium precursors (S)-4 and 12 were synthesized, Scheme 3. We have previously described the intramolecular hydrosilylation of 9 using rhodium and the ferrotane ligand to produce 4 in greater than 90% enantiomeric excess.31 Racemic 12, a potential precursor to racemic 4 and a more easily synthesized test silane, could be prepared on a large scale and in a single step (80%) by radical hydrosilylation of methallyl alcohol 11 using diphenylsilane 10.34 Exploration of the synthetic pathways leading to the first derivatives of 1 was initially conducted with racemic 12, described below. Subsequent synthesis using enantiomerically pure 4 to give full control of the two stereogenic centers of 1 is then described and detailed in the Supporting Information. Scheme 3.

INITIAL SURVEY OF THE SYNTHESIS ROUTE

Starting with racemic silane 12, treatment with lithium led to formation of dianion 13 which, on addition of the Ellman sulfinimine 7, gave coupled product 14 as a 1:1 mixture of diastereomers in 59% yield, Scheme 4. Compound 14 has the complete carbon skeleton of the target 1, however it carries two acid-labile protecting groups with selective hydrolysis of the sulfinamide the desired next step. Loss of the MOM group would yield an intermediate with two primary alcohols that might be difficult to differentiate chemically. Unfortunately, treatment of 14 with one

equivalent of HCl in dioxane, followed by acetyl chloride and triethylamine, resulted in a complex mixture. An easy workaround, albeit less desirable than selective hydrolysis of the sulfinamide of 14, was to first protect the primary alcohol of 14 with the very robust tert-butyldiphenylsilyl (TPS) group. The Hardinger protocol then gave 16 in high yield.35 Nevertheless, hydrolysis of the Ellman sulfonamide in 16 followed by acetylation gave the desired product 17 in low yield. Alternate chemistry was clearly desirable. Scheme 4. Ellman's sulfonamide proved difficult to hydrolyze.

acceptable 56% overall yield. Coupling of the acid with methylamine using a mixed anhydride gave the N-methyl amide 20 in high yield. With 20 in hand, conversion of the MOM-protected alcohol into a guanidine unit was explored, Scheme 6. Hydrolysis of the MOM group and conversion of the alcohol to a mesylate proceeded without incident. Mixing this mesylate with sodium azide in DMF, however, led to cyclization and formation of the prolinealanine-like structure 23. At 50 °C this cyclization was complete within 20 minutes and even in the absence of sodium azide the cyclization still occurred in DMF but required six hours. Cyclization of 4-mesyloxy-1(N)-butylsulfonamide structures have been commonly performed but in all cases these cyclizations involved the use of a base such as potassium carbonate.37-39 While this appears to be a very useful approach to prolinecontaining silanediol dipeptide analogs, it was not useful for the goals of this study. Scheme 6. Unexpectedly facile cyclization of the tosyl amide.

Presented with these Ellman sulfoximine difficulties, we turned our attention to using the original Davis sulfoximine, Scheme 5.29 This path was pursued with the anticipation that the sulfoxamide could be removed using magnesium in methanol after oxidation of the sulfoxamide to a tosyl group, conditions that would be compatible with the targeted structures but not available with the Ellman reagent. Addition of the silyllithium reagent derived from racemic alcohol 12 to sulfonimine 8 gave diphenylsilyl product 18 in good yield, again as a 1:1 mixture of diastereomers, Scheme 5. Attempting to oxidize the alcohol and the sulfur in 18 simultaneously using Weinreb's combination of ruthenium chloride and sodium periodate gave a disappointingly low yield of the tosylamidecarboxylate 19.36 The two-step alternative however, oxidation of the sulfoxamide to a tosylamide with MCPBA followed by oxidation of the alcohol to an acid, proceeded to give 19 in an Scheme 5. Davis sulfoximine-derived 18 and oxidation to a tosyl group.

Returning to intermediate 20, we focused on exchanging the tosyl group for a Boc group, Scheme 7. Following the examples provided by Ragnarsson and Muir,40-42 we added a Boc group to the tosyl amide nitrogen of 20 under standard conditions: di-tertbutyl dicarbonate with DMAP in acetonitrile. Despite the potential issues of steric interference from the adjacent alkyldiphenylsilyl substituent, this reaction proceeded in good yield and without difficulty, yielding 24 (89%). Reductive removal of the tosyl group using magnesium in methanol gave Boc-protected amine 25 in 90% yield. With 25 in hand, the MOM group was removed with BBr3 and the resulting alcohol was converted to a mesylate. Warming this mesylate with sodium azide in DMF gave the desired azide 26 in 52% yield for the three steps. The Boc group of 26 was easily removed using 4M HCl in dioxane and the resulting amine was converted to the acetamide 27 using acetyl chloride. The yield of 27 under these conditions was low, however (25%). Using identical Boc deprotection conditions followed by coupling with acetic acid using HATU and NMM gave 27 in a much more acceptable 72% overall yield. Scheme 7.

Reduction of azide 27 was accomplished by hydrogenation with Lindlar's catalyst, Scheme 8. While this seemed to effect azide reduction, the resulting product was surprisingly complex. This difficulty was solved by addition of di-tert-butyl dicarbonate to the reduction reaction mixture, which trapped the primary amine and the Boc-derivatized product 28 was isolated in quantitative yield.43 The last two goals of this exercise were conversion of the Boc-protected primary amine to a guanidine and hydrolysis of the diphenylsilyl group to a silanediol. Treatment of 28 with hydrochloric acid in dioxane removed the Boc group. Neutralizing the resulting ammonium salt in the presence of N,N'-di-Boc thiourea and mercuric chloride installed the doubly Boc-protected guanidine group in 85% yield.44 Removal of the two Boc groups would leave only hydrolysis of the phenyl groups on the silicon. In the past we have accomplished the latter transformation in two ways: with mercuric chloride as the electrophile and with strong acid.15,18 Using a proton as the electrophile was clearly more desirable. In this ultimate step of the synthetic sequence, treatment of 29 with triflic acid at 0 °C – our standard phenylsilane hydrolysis conditions18 – proved to be inadequate to remove both of the phenyl groups. This may be a consequence of the three-to-four positive charges expected to surround the silicon center before ipso protonation of the phenyl groups: both amides are presumably protonated under these conditions as well as the guanidine group. Moreover, with triflic acid the guanidine itself could be doubly charged. Switching to acetic acid to remove the Boc groups, the resulting guanidinium intermediate was therefore treated with mercuric chloride. This procedure fully removed both phenyl groups from silicon and gave 30, the smallest of the silanediol dipeptide targets, albeit with one stereocenter uncontrolled. Synthesis of this silanediol with full control of stereochemistry as well as more complex analogs became the next objective.

Careful removal of the MOM group using TMSBr at –78 °C for 45 sec, conversion of the alcohol to a mesylate and displacement with azide formed 36 in 52% yield for the three steps. Replacement of the Boc group with an acetyl group (HCl followed by acetic anhydride) and then hydrogenation of the azide in the presence of di-tert-butyl dicarbonate produced Boc-protected 37 (88% for two steps). Assembly of the protected guanidine unit was accomplished by removal of the Boc group of 37 followed by condensation of the primary amine with doubly Boc-protected thiourea to give 38 in 90% yield. After acetic acid deprotection of the guanidine the two phenyl-silicon bonds were hydrolyzed using mercuric acetate to give 39, the first silanediol target. Scheme 9.

ASYMMETRIC SYNTHESIS OF THE INHIBITORS With a workable synthetic sequence in place we turned our attention to control of both stereogenic centers. Beginning with silafuran 4, prepared in >90% ee by asymmetric intramolecular hydrosilylation, reductive ring opening with lithium gave dianion 31.31 Addition of the Davis sulfinimine 8 to this dianion gave alcohol 32 as a single diastereomer in 75% overall yield, Scheme 9. Following our defined synthesis path, oxidation of the sulfinimine to a tosyl group (89%) and oxidation of the primary alcohol to an acid (68%) gave 33. After formation of the N-methyl amide (92%) the tosyl group was replaced with a Boc group using the method of Ragnarsson and Muir (74%).40

To build analogs of 39 with more elaborate amine substituents, we returned to azide intermediate 36, Scheme 10. Removal of the Boc group with 4M hydrochloric acid in dioxane was followed by coupling with N-acyl alanine (A), as well as two Nacylated dipeptides Leu-Ala (B) and Pro-Ala (C), using HATU to give 40A – 40C in reasonable yields. Each of these products was then taken through the four-step sequence to convert the azide to a guanidine (overall 51-55% overall) followed by hydrolysis of the phenyl–silicon bonds of 42. Each reaction proceeded without incident, yielding 43A – 43C in overall yields of 71-73%.

A derivative was also prepared on the carboxylate end of the N-acyl Arg-[Si]-Ala, Scheme 11. Using the sequence described in Scheme 5, alanine N-methyl amide was coupled with acid 33 using HATU to give amide product 44 in moderate yield. Replacement of the N-tosyl group with a Boc group, using N-Boc derivatization (54%) followed by reductive elimination of the tosyl group (magnesium in methanol) gave 45 in 82% yield. Treatment of this mesylate with sodium azide in DMF gave 46 in modest yield. The remaining Boc group was removed with hydrochloric acid in dioxane and the amine was condensed with acetic acid to yield 47 (68%). Conversion of the azide to a protected guanidine by reduction to the amine in the presence of ditert-butyl dicarbonate, Boc removal with hydrochloric acid and mercury-mediated condensation of the amine with N,N'-di-Boc thiourea gave 48 in 85% yield.

CONCLUSION We have developed a synthetic sequence to prepare silanediol mimics of a hydrated Arg–Ala dipeptide and assembled a set of potential inhibitors of Factor IXa, a target for therapeutic intervention of the coagulation cascade. The silanediol targets contain two stereogenic centers. The methyl stereocenter was prepared by asymmetric intramolecular hydrosilylation, whereas the α– aminosilane stereocenter was assembled by intermolecular addition of a silyllithium reagent, prepared by reductive opening of a 2-silafuran, to a Davis sulfinimine. The Davis reagent proved to be important for manipulation of the nitrogen protecting group because it could be cleaved by reduction with magnesium. The full carbon skeleton of the silyl dipeptide was assembled rapidly and with control of the two stereogenic centers, however the subsequent chemistry involved substantial functional group manipulation. Oxidation of the primary alcohol to an acid was straightforward, although the facile sulfur oxidation of the Davisderived sulfinamide was a complication. Most of the synthetic steps reported here involved conversion of the alcohol of the protected 3-hydroxy-1-propyl substituent to a guanidine. More efficient approaches to introduce this substitution can be envisioned and this is an objective for future efforts. In addition, conversion of the diphenylsilyl group in the ultimate deprotection step to a silanediol proved to be problematic as our standard treatment with triflic acid was ineffective. The stability of the phenylsilane bond in the context of these peptide structures may be a result of the proximal guanidinium group but this remains to be more fully defined. The use of mercury reagents to effect this transformation was undesirable. Activated (more elec-

In this context, the substituted diphenylsilane chemistry developed by Skrydstrup, et al. could be an important contribution to these useful building blocks.45 Inhibition of Factor XIa catalysis by these four potential inhibitors will be reported elsewhere.
