Discovery and Synthesis of (S)-3-[2-(3,4-Dimethoxyphenyl)ethoxy]-2- (4,6-dimethylpyrimidin-2-yloxy)-3,3-diphenylpropionic Acid (LU 302872), a Novel Orally Active Mixed ETA/ETB Receptor Antagonist

Abstract: Structural variation of the endothelin A-selective antagonist (S)-3-methoxy-2-(4,6-dimethoxypyrimidin-2-yloxy)-3, 3-diphenylpropionic acid (LU 135252) led to analogues which retain ET(A) affinity but exhibit substantial ET(B) affinity as well. The most active derivative obtained is (S)-3-[2-(3, 4-dimethoxyphenyl)ethoxy]-2-(4,6-dimethylpyrimidin-2-yloxy)- 3, 3-diphenylpropionic acid (LU 302872), which can be prepared in enantiomerically pure form in eight steps via an acid-catalyzed transetherification. It has … Show more

“…(13, I) [72] exhibited higher selectivity for ET A (Ki, ET A = 7.4 nM, ET B = 1200 nM). Similar effect was also observed [73,74] by simply varying the alkoxy substituent at the β-carbon, thereby making it possible to get compounds ranging from those that were non-specific to ones that were highly ET A specific; Fig. (13).…”

“…Presumably these findings result from the loss of the proinflammatory and profibrotic effects of ET-1, the expression of which is greatly enhanced in the scar. 15,18 Rats treated later (10 days) after MI with LU did not have impaired scar healing but nevertheless had more ventricular dilatation 100 days after MI. These results differ from those of Fraccarollo et al 12 with bosentan started 3 hours after MI and differ from all other studies evaluating ET receptor antagonists started later after MI, either selective ET A 9 -11 or nonselective ET A and ET B 10,11,13 receptor antagonists.…”

“…The half-life is 2 hours. 18 The efficacy of ET B receptor blockade was verified by evaluating the effects of injections of increasing doses of the ET B receptor-selective agonist BQ3020, 19 0.01 to 1 nmol/kg (Sigma), on mean arterial pressure of anesthetized rats 2 weeks after either sham operation (nϭ13) or MI (nϭ12). The BQ3020 was prepared in PBS at pH 7.4.…”

“…The (S)-enantiomer of the latter compound is a key intermediate for the synthesis of ET receptor antagonists BSF 420627, BSF 302146 and LU 135252 (Darusentan). [17] Since the large-scale industrial synthesis of (S)-9 is based on resolution of the racemate by crystallization, [18] recycling of the undesired (R)-stereoisomer by racemization is highly desirable. However, chemical racemization methods based on acid-or base-catalysis failed: depending on the reaction conditions, elimination of methanol (to form 3,3-diphenylpyruvic acid) or C-C bond cleavage to form benzophenone and a C2 fragment (presumably glyoxylic or hydroxyacetic acid) are the main degradation pathways.…”
