The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) signaling pathway has been linked to the pathophysiology of diabetes and metabolic syndrome. We developed a series of potent and selective 11ï¢-HSD1 inhibitors. These compounds showed excellent potency against both human and mouse 11ï¢-HSD1 enzymes and displayed good pharmacokinetics and ex vivo inhibition of the target in mice.Compounds HSD-016 and HSD-621 were ultimately selected as clinical development candidates. Both compounds have attractive overall pharmaceutical profiles and demonstrated good oral bioavailability in mouse, rat and dog. When orally dosed in C57/BL6 dietï€-induced-ï€obesity (DIO) mice, HSD-016 and HSDï€621 were efficacious and showed a significant reduction in both fed and fasting glucose and insulin levels. Furthermore, both compoundswere well tolerated in drug safety assessment studies.

11β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 (11β-HSD1) catalyzes the conversion of inactive glucocorticoid cortisone to its active form, cortisol. The glucocorticoid receptor (GR) signaling pathway has been linked to the pathophysiology of diabetes and metabolic syndrome. Herein, the structure–activity relationship of a series of piperazine sulfonamide-based 11β-HSD1 inhibitors is described. (R)-3,3,3-Trifluoro-2-(5-(((R)-4-(4-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-2-methylpiperazin-1-yl)sulfonyl)thiophen-2-yl)-2-hydroxypropanamide 18a (HSD-621) was identified as a potent and selective 11β-HSD1 inhibitor and was ultimately selected as a clinical development candidate. HSD-621 has an attractive overall pharmaceutical profile and demonstrates good oral bioavailability in mouse, rat, and dog. When orally dosed in C57/BL6 diet-induced obesity (DIO) mice, HSD-621 was efficacious and showed a significant reduction in both fed and fasting glucose and insulin levels. Furthermore, HSD-621 was well tolerated in drug safety assessment studies.

EXAMPLES The title compounds of Examples 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 were prepared as shown in
Scheme 1 below. Detailed synthesis procedures are provided below.
Scheme 1
Example 1.1
3,3,3-trifluoro-2-r5-({(2R)-4-r4-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyll-2-methylpiperazin- l-yl}sulfonyl)-2-thienyll-2-hvdroxypropanamide Step IA: A mixture of (R)-2-methyl-piperazine (25.0 g, 250 mmol), 2-bromo 5- fluoro benzotrifluoride (55.1 g, 227 mmol), tris(dibenzylidineacetone)dipalldium (0) (2.08g, 2.27 mmol), rac-2,2'-bis(diphenylphosphino)-l,r-binaphthyl (4.24 g, 6.81 mmol) and sodium tert-butoxide (27.3 g, 280 mmol) was mixed and purged with N2. Anhydrous toluene (500 mL) was added and purged with N2 again. The resulting mixture was heated in an oil bath at 105 0C under N2 for 3.5 hours. After cooling, the reaction mixture was concentrated and then filtered through a pad of Celite, washed with Et2O. The organic layer was concentrated, diluted with Et2O (500 mL), filtered through a pad of Celite again, and washed with IN aq. HCl (2 x 150 mL). The aqueous layer was basified with NaOH at 0 0C (pH = -10) and then was extracted with Et2O (3 x 200 mL). The combined organic layer was dried over MgSO4 and concentrated under vacuum to give (3i?)-l-[4- fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]-3-methylpiperazine as a brown oil (58.5 g, 98%), which was used without further purification.
Step IB: To a solution of 5-bromothiophene-2-sulfonyl chloride (26.2 g, 100 mmol) and (3R)-l-(4-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-3-methylpiperazine (27.6 g, lOOmmol) in DCM (200 ml) was added Et3N (41.8 ml, 300 mmol) at room temp. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature until completion of the reaction (about 6 hours) and then washed with aq. NaHCO3. The basic washes were back extracted with dichloromethane (DCM). The combined organic layers were washed with brine and dried over Na2SO4. The crude product was purified on a SiO2 column using hexanes/DCM as the eluent to give (R)-l-(5-bromothiophen-2-ylsulfonyl)-4-(4-fluoro-2- (trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-2-methylpiperazine as a white solid (38 g, 78 mmol, 78 % yield).
Step 1C: To a solution of (R)-l-(5-bromothiophen-2-ylsulfonyl)-4-(4-fluoro-2- (trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-2-methylpiperazine (28.1 g, 57.7 mmol) in anhydrous THF (200 ml) was added Butyllithium (28.8 ml, 57.7 mmol) at -780C. The reaction mixture was Stirred under N2 for 15 min. and then a solution of methyl 3,3,3-trifluoropyruvate (6.07 ml, 57.7 mmol) in THF (20 mL) was added via a cannula. The reaction mixture was stirred at -780C for 2 h. and then quenched with a 10 mL of 10% aq. HCl. The reaction mixture was dried over MgSO4 and CombiFlashed with DCM/hexane (15 - 100%) to provide methyl 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-(5-((R)-4-(4-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-2- methylpiperazin-l-ylsulfonyl)thiophen-2-yl)-2-hydroxypropanoate as a sticky, light yellow solid (22 g, 39.0 mmol, 67.6 % yield).
Step ID, Method 1: To a solution of methyl 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-(5-((R)-4-(4-fiuoro- 2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-2-methylpiperazin-l-ylsulfonyl)thiophen-2-yl)-2- hydroxypropanoate (21.5 g, 38.1 mmol) in MeOH (200 ml) was added aq. NH3 (-28-
30%, 50 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature o/n and then diluted with ice water (700 mL). The resultant white ppt was collected by filtration, washed with water, and dried in an oven at 60 0C to give the desired product 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-(5-((R)- 4-(4-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-2-methylpiperazin-l-ylsulfonyl)thiophen-2-yl)-2- hydroxypropanamide (15 g, 27.3 mmol, 71.7 % yield). The aqueous layer was extracted with DCM (4 x 100 mL), and the combined organic layers were concentrated. Purification of the concentrate by column chromatography with EA/DCM (0-40%) gave an additional 1.5 g of product.
Method 2: To a solution of methyl 3,3,3-trifluoro-2-(5-((R)-4-(4-fluoro-2-
(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-2-methylpiperazin-l-ylsulfonyl)thiophen-2-yl)-2- hydroxypropanoate (200 mg) in MeOH (20 ml) at -780C was bubbled NH3 gas. The resultant mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight, concentrated, and dissolved in fresh DCM. The organic layer was washed with aq. NaHCO3 and dried to give 3,3,3- trifluoro-2-(5 -((R)-4-(4-fluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)-2-methylpiperazin- 1 - ylsulfonyl)thiophen-2-yl)-2-hydroxypropanamide as a white solid (150 mg). It was found that competing hydrolysis of the ester group to the corresponding acid occurred to a greater extent when using Method 1. Thus, in some instances, it may be preferable to use Method 2 when performing step D.
