Process development for the synthesis of a second generation β-amyloid-cleaving enzyme (BACE1) inhibitor (1) is described. The lithiothiazole addition to the isoxazolene (5) under batch conditions was not scalable because of reaction gelling and anion instability. A continuous stirred-tank reactor flow process was developed and successfully executed on the 70 kg scale in multiple runs. In a head-to-head comparison between the continuous and batch processes, the former was clearly superior as it gave a higher yield (80 vs 63%) of the adduct (4) and better reaction control for handling the unstable lithiothiazole as a reaction intermediate. Subsequently, 4 underwent Pd-catalyzed amination with t-butyl carbamate, reductive cleavage of the N-O bond, thioamidine cyclization, and deprotection of the Boc group to provide hydropyranothiazine 2. The synthesis of 1 was completed by amidation with 5-(difluoromethoxy)picolinic acid and the successive deprotection of the benzamide group with either Silicycle-diamine or l-lysine.

The l-type amino acid transporter 1 (LAT1, SLC7A5) imports dietary amino acids and amino acid drugs (e. g., l-DOPA) into the brain, and plays a role in cancer metabolism. Though there have been numerous reports of LAT1-targeted amino acid-drug conjugates (prodrugs), identifying the structural determinants to enhance substrate activity has been challenging. In this work, we investigated the position and orientation of a carbonyl group in linking hydrophobic moieties including the anti-inflammatory drug ketoprofen to l-tyrosine and l-phenylalanine. We found that esters of meta-carboxyl l-phenylalanine had better LAT1 transport rates than the corresponding acylated l-tyrosine analogues. However, as the size of the hydrophobic moiety increased, we observed a decrease in LAT1 transport rate with a concomitant increase in potency of inhibition. Our results have important implications for designing amino acid prodrugs that target LAT1 at the blood-brain barrier or on cancer cells.

Sodium sulfide very efficiently removes copper from protected amino acid-copper complexes. The copper in the amino acid complex was reduced to insoluble cuprous sulfide and the free amino acid was released in pure form. This method is very convenient and rapid, requiring only 5-10 min and 0.55-0.75 equiv of sodium sulfide.
