STEROID SPARING AGENTS AND METHODS OF USING SAME

This invention relates generally to the use of a steroid sparing agent for the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), asthma, multiple sclerosis (MS), rheumatoid arthritis (RA), graft versus host disease (GVHD), host versus graft disease, and various spondyloarthropathies, comprising administering a steroid sparing immunoglobulin or small molecule composition to a patient in need thereof. The invention also relates generally to combination therapies for the treatment of these conditions.

Synthesis of four stereoisomers of 1,4-thiazane-3-carboxylic acid 1-oxide via the asymmetric transformation (combined isomerization-preferential crystallization) of 1,4-thiazane-3-carboxylic acid

In order to synthesize four stereoisomers of 1,4-thiazane-3-carboxylic acid 1-oxide (TCA SO), (S)-1,4-thiazane-3-carboxylic acid [(S)-TCA], which is one of the precursors, was prepared by the asymmetric transformation (combined isomerization-preferential crystallization) of (RS)-TCA. This asymmetric transformation was used (2R, 3R)-tartaric acid [(R)-TA] as a resolving agent and salicylaldehyde as the epimerization catalyst in propanoic acid at 110°C to afford a salt of (S)-TCA with (R)-TA in 100% de with a yield of over 90%. Optically pure (S)-TCA was obtained by treating the salt with triethylamine in methanol in a yield of over 80%, based on (RS)-TCA as the starting material. In addition, asymmetric transformation of (R)-TCA gave (S)-TCA in a yield of 60-70%. (S)-TCA was oxidized by hydrogen peroxide in dilute hydrochloric acid to selectively crystallize (1S, 3S)-TCA SO. (1R, 3S)-TCA-SO of 70% de from the filtrate was allowed to form a salt with (R)-TA after a treatment with triethylamine to give (1R, 3S)-TCA·SO as a single diastereoisomer. (1R, 3R)- and (1S, 3R)-TCA·SO were also prepared by starting from (R)-TCA that had been synthesized from L-cysteine.

Synthesis of Optically Active 1,4-Thiazane-3-carboxylic Acid via Optical Resolution by Preferential Crystallization of (RS)2-Amino-3-[(2-chloroethyl)sulfanyl]propanoic Acid Hydrochloride

Optically active 1,4-thiazane-3-carboxylic acid [TCA] was synthesized from cysteine via optical resolution by preferential crystallization. The intermediate (RS)-2-amino-3-[(2-chloroethyl)sulfanyl]propanoic acid hydrochloride [(RS)-ACS-HCl] was found to exist as a conglomerate based on its melting point, solubility and IR spectrum. (RS)-ACS·HCl was optically resolved by preferential crystallization to yield (R)- and (S)-ACS·HCl. (R)- and (S)-ACS·HCl thus obtained were recrystallized from a mixture of hydrochloric acid and 2-propanol, taking account of the solubility of (RS)-ACS·HCl, efficiently yielding both enantiomers in optically pure forms. (R)- and (S)-TCA were then respectively synthesized by the cyclization of (R)- and (S)-ACS·HCI in ethanol in the presence of triethylamine.

Synthesis of Amino Acids with Modified Principal Properties 3: Sulfur-Containing Amino Acids

The synthesis and characterization of seven medium-sized, medium-polar, sulfur-containing amino acids are presented.The compounds were prepared with the objective of finding amino acids which possess physical and chemical properties such that their principal properties would be clearly different from those of previously known amino acids.The principal properties are determined as latent variables in principal component analysis of molecular property descriptors.The following amino acids were prepared in homochiral form from L-cysteine: (2R)-2-amino-3-(2-hydroxyethylsulfanyl)propanoic acid, (2R)-2-amino-3-(2-hydroxyethylsulfonyl)propanoic acid, (3R)-perhydro-1,4-thiazine-3-carboxylic acid and (3R)-1,1-dioxoperhydro-1,4-thiazine-3-carboxylic acid. (3R)-1-Oxoperhydro-1,4-thiazine-3-carboxylic acid was prepared in N,C protected form, but all attempts to obtain the free amino acid failed.The principal properties of this amino acid were determined on the racemic diastereomers obtained by oxidation of the racemic perhydro-1,4-thiazine-3-carboxylic acid prepared from 2-aminoethanethiol and ethyl 3-bromo-2-oxopropanoate.With the exception of (3R)-perhydro-1,4-thiazine-3-carboxylic acid for which the synthesis has been previously described, the amino acids described are new compounds.An improved synthesis of (3R)-perhydro-1,4-thiazine-3-carboxylic acid via the cyclization of (2R)-benzyl-2-amino-3-(2-hydroxyethylsulfanyl)propanoate under Mitsunobu conditions is presented.Full experimental details for the syntheses are given.The principal property scores of the synthesized sulfur-containing amino acids and of the structurally related 3-(2-aminoethyl)cysteine which was commercially available are given.
