Diastereoselective synthesis of trans-disubstituted pyrazolylcyclopropane building blocks (i.e. carboxylic acids and amines) is described starting from easily available pyrazolecarbaldehydes. The key step of the synthesis was Corey–Chaikowsky cyclopropanation of the corresponding α,β-unsaturated Weinreb amides. The title compounds were prepared in four or six steps and 32–60 and 17–40?% overall yields, respectively, on up to 50?g scale. The building blocks obtained are good starting points for the design of lead-like libraries; they themselves can be considered as isosteric analogs of CNS-active drug tranylcyclopropamine.

Myeloid cell leukemia 1 (Mcl-1) has emerged as an attractive target for cancer therapy. It is an antiapoptotic member of the Bcl-2 family of proteins, whose upregulation in human cancers is associated with high tumor grade, poor survival, and resistance to chemotherapy. Here we report the discovery of our clinical candidate S64315, a selective small molecule inhibitor of Mcl-1. Starting from a fragment derived lead compound, we have conducted structure guided optimization that has led to a significant (3 log) improvement of target affinity as well as cellular potency. The presence of hindered rotation along a biaryl axis has conferred high selectivity to the compounds against other members of the Bcl-2 family. During optimization, we have also established predictive PD markers of Mcl-1 inhibition and achieved both efficient in vitro cell killing and tumor regression in Mcl-1 dependent cancer models. The preclinical candidate has drug-like properties that have enabled its development and entry into clinical trials.
