Definitions
- nucleosides are converted into their corresponding 5'-mono-nucleotides by the action of cellular nucleoside kinase(s) followed by stepwise phosphorylation catalyzed by cellular nucleotide kinases to their corresponding 5'-triphosphates.
- nucleoside 5'-triphosphates inhibit proviral DNA synthesis catalyzed by HIV reverse transcriptase (RT) by incorporation to the 3' position of the growing DNA terminal.
- RT HIV reverse transcriptase
- nucleosides are poor substrates for deoxynucleoside kinase(s) due to rather restricted structural requirement of the enzyme(s). Conversion of the 5'-monophosphate of these nucleosides into their corresponding 5'-triphosphates usually occurs readily in the cell. Nucleoside-5'-monophosphates cannot be used for treatment of AIDS, because they can hardly penetrate the cell membrane due to strong acidic nature.
- Nucleoside-5'-hydrogenphosphonates weak acidic compounds, however, may penetrate cell membrane and may be oxidized to their corresponding phosphates and then further converted into the corresponding triphosphates in the cell, or the 5'-hydrogen-phosphonates may serve as substrates for nucleotide kinases forming the triphosphate analogues, pyrophosphorylhydrogenphosphonates, which then inhibit the viral DNA synthesis catalyzed by the reverse transcriptase.

Description
5'-Hvdrogenphosphonates and 5'-Methylyphosphonates of Sugar Modified Nucleosides, Compositions and Uses Thereof
The invention described herein was made in the course of work under Grant Nos. CA-08748 and AI-26056 from the National Cancer Institute, National Institutes of Health, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
Background Of The Invention
The only clinically available agent for the treatment of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) in the United States is 3'-azido-3,-deoxythymidine (AZT). [Mitsuya et al., Proc. Nat Aσad. Sci., USA, 1985 82., 7096] Several 2',3'-dideoxynucleosides are also reported [Mitsuya et al.. Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci., USA, 1986, 83, 1911] as active against human immune deficiency virus (HIV) , the responsible pathogen that causes AIDS. These nucleosides are converted into their corresponding 5'-mono-nucleotides by the action of cellular nucleoside kinase(s) followed by stepwise phosphorylation catalyzed by cellular nucleotide kinases to their corresponding 5'-triphosphates. These nucleoside 5'-triphosphates inhibit proviral DNA synthesis catalyzed by HIV reverse transcriptase (RT) by incorporation to the 3' position of the growing DNA terminal.
Many nucleosides are poor substrates for deoxynucleoside kinase(s) due to rather restricted structural requirement of the enzyme(s). Conversion of the 5'-monophosphate of these nucleosides into their corresponding 5'-triphosphates usually occurs readily in the cell. Nucleoside-5'-monophosphates cannot be used for treatment of AIDS, because they can hardly penetrate the cell membrane due to strong acidic nature. Nucleoside-5'-hydrogenphosphonates, weak acidic compounds, however, may penetrate cell membrane and
may be oxidized to their corresponding phosphates and then further converted into the corresponding triphosphates in the cell, or the 5'-hydrogen-phosphonates may serve as substrates for nucleotide kinases forming the triphosphate analogues, pyrophosphorylhydrogenphosphonates, which then inhibit the viral DNA synthesis catalyzed by the reverse transcriptase.

Experimental Details
SYNTHESIS OF NUCLEOSIDE-5'-HYDROGENPHOSPHONATES. To a solution of nucleoside (0.2 mmol) in a solvent (2 mL) are added 0.6 M solution of phosphorous acid tri-n-butylammonium salt in pyridine (0.5 mL) and N,N'-dicyclohexyl-carbodiimide (0.6 mmol). The mixture is stirred at room temperature. The reaction is monitored by thin layer chromatography on a silica gel plate using isopropanol : 25% ammonium hydroxide : water (7:1:2 v/v) (system 1) as the solvent. After all the nucleoside is consumed, the mixture is centrifuged for 10 minutes. The supernatant is removed by decantation. The solid is twice washed with water. The product is isolated by preparative layer chromatography on a silica gel plates using system 1.
SYNTHESIS OF NUCLEOSIDE-5'-METHYLPHOSPHONATES. To a solution of nucleoside in a solvent mixture are added at 0 ºC successively dichloro-methylphosphoryl oxide and 1,2,4tetrazole. The mixture is stirred at 0 ºC for 1 hour and then at room temperature. After completion of the reaction as judged by thin layer chromatography on a silica gel plate in system 1, the mixture is cooled to 0 ºC, and the reaction is quenched by addition of triethylamine and water. The mixture is stirred for 2 hours at 4 ºC, and then is concentrated in vacuo. The nucleoside-5'-methylphosphonates are isolated by preparative layer chromatography on silica gel plates using system 1. The following examples are illustrated of the process and products of the present invention, but are not to be construed as limiting.
Example 1
To a solution 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine (53 mg, 0.2 mmol) in pyridine (2 mL) are added 0.6 M solution of phosphorous acid tri-n-butylammonium salt in pyridine (0.5 mL) and N,N'-dicyclohexyl-carbodiimide (125 mg, 0.6 mmol). The mixture is stirred for 4 hours at room temperature, and then is centrifuged for 10 minutes. The supernatant is removed by decantation. The solid is twice washed by dispersion in water (1 mL each) followed by centrifugation. The combined supernatants are concentrated to dryness in vacuo. The residue is dissolved in a minimal amount of pyridine and applied to a silica gel plate (20 × 20 × 0.15 cm), and the plate is developed in system 1. The UV absorbing band corresponding to the nucleoside-5'-phosphonate is scraped, and then extracted with system 1 (30 mL). The solvent is removed by evaporation in vacuo, and the residue is reevaporated with water (2 mL). The residue is dried azeotropically by evaporation with ethanol (2 mL × 2) in vacuo. 1-(3-azido-3-deoxy-5-O-hydrogen-phosphonyl-β-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)thymine (58 mg, 84% yield) is obtained as colorless foam.

Example 2 To a solution of 1-(2,3-Dideoxy-2,3-didehydro-β-D-glyceropentofuranosyl) thymine (45 mg, 0.2 mmol) in trimethylphosphate (2 mL) ) are added 0.6 M solution of phosphorous acid tri-n-butyl-ammonium salt in pyridine (0.5 mL) and N,N'-dicyclohexyl carbodimide (125 mg, 0.6 mmol). The mixture is stirred for 8 hours at room temperature, and
then is centrifuged for 10 minutes. The supernatant is removed by decantation. The solid is twice washed by dispersion in water (1 mL each) followed by centrifugation. The combined supernatants are concentrated to dryness in vacuo. The residue is dissolved in a minimal amoun, of pyridine and applied to a silica gel plate (20 x 20 x 0.15 cm), and the plate is developed in system 1. The UV absorbing band corresponding to the nucleoside-5'-phosphonate is scraped, and then extracted with system 1 (30 mL). The solvent is removed by evaporation in vacuo, and the residue is reevaporated with water (2 mL) . The residue is dried azeotropically be evaporation with ethanol (2 mL x 2) in vacuo. 1-(2,3-Dideoxy-2,3-didehydro-5-O-hydrogenphosphonvl-β-D-glycero-pentofuranosyl) thymine (25 mg, 42% yield) is obtained as colorless foam.

Anti-HIV-1 Assay. Anti-HIV-1 activities of the compounds were tested in MT4 cells. The cells were infected with HIV1 at 200 TCID50 viruses per 106 cells. After an absorption period of one hour at 37ºC unabsorbed viruses were removed by washing with fresh medium without fetal calf serum. The cells were suspended in fresh medium and distributed into 12-well microculture plates (106 cells 5/3ml/well). Then, various concentrations of test compounds were added. The cell cultures were incubated at 37' in a humidified atmosphere of 5% C02 HIV-1 P24 core antigen and RT activity in the supernatants of the test cell cultures were detected on day-4. Anti-HIV-1 effects of compounds were evaluated by the inhibitory concentration was calculated by the medianeffect plot using a computer software.

EXPERIMENTAL DISCUSSION
Representative compounds are tested for their inhibitory effects against human immunodeficiency virus in H-9 cells using 3'-azido-3'-deoxythymidine, 3'-deoxy-3'fluorothymidine and 2',3'-dideoxy-cytidine as standards. The results are summarized in Table 6. 1-(2,3-Dideoxy-5-O- [hydrogenphosphonyl]-β-D-erythro-pentofuranosyl)uracil and 1-(2,3-dideoxy-2,3-didehydro-5-0-[hydrogen-phosphonyl]-β-D-glycero-pentofuranosyl) thymine and inhibit replication of
HIV at 10 micromolar concentration. Even at 1.0 micromolar concentration, these compounds inhibit HIV replication to a significant extent. The cytotoxicity of these compounds against uninfected cells is much less than that of the nucleosides used for standard.
The inventors have found that several compounds were found to be potent and selective inhibitors of HIV-1 replication. Among all of the active compounds, AZT-HP, FLT-HP and ddT-HP exhibited the most potent anti-HIV-1 activity. AZT-HP gave EC50 (50% antiviral effective concentration) of 0.072 μM and IC50 (50% inhibitory concentration of cell growth) of 2,500 μM. A selectively index of 34,700 was achieved. FLT-HP showed EC50 of 0.135 μM and IC50 of >5,000 μM. Its selectively index was >37,000. The EC50 and IC50 of ddT-HP were 0.084 μM and 3410 μM, respectively, with a selectivity index of 40,000. As control compounds, AZT, FLT and ddT gave their ED50, IC50 and selectively index as following: AZT, 0.005 μM, 154 μM and 30,800; FLT, 0.004 μM, 190 μM and 47,500; and ddT 1.88 μM and >5,000 μM and >2,660. Although AZT-HP and FLT-HP shows lower anti-HIV-1 activity than that of AZT and FLT, their selectivity indices were close to that of AZT and FLT. Their selectivity indices were close to that of AZT and FLT because of their low cytotoxicity. Anti
viral activity of ddT-HP was more than 20-folds higher than ddT and it still shows low cytotoxicity. Thus ddT-HP gives a good selectivity index.
