A Concise Synthesis of a Key Azabicyclo[2.1.1]hexane Building Block for N-Heteroaryl Indazole LRRK2 Kinase Inhibitors

Le résumé fourni par la source

Abstract Increasing the fraction of sp3 character in lead compounds has been shown to increase their drug-likeness by improving their potency, selectivity, and physicochemical properties. Azabicyclo[2.1.1]hexanes have recently garnered much interest in the synthetic community as pyrrolidine analogues for their interesting biological properties and stereoelectronic effects. During the course of our optimization of N-heteroaryl LRRK2 inhibitors, we discovered that this unique bicyclic system leads to improvements in solubility and metabolic clearance. Herein, we outline a match-pair analysis showcasing the broad impact of this unique azabicyclo[2.1.1]hexane system on key drug-like properties, as well as a concise and scalable synthesis of this building block, featuring an intramolecular cyclization to forge a strained amide bond.
