Classic galactosemia is a rare disease caused by inherited deficiency of galactose-1 phosphate uridylyltransferase (GALT). Accumulation of galactose-1 phosphate (gal-1P) is thought to be the major cause of the chronic complications associated with this disease, which currently has no treatment. Inhibiting galactokinase (GALK1), the enzyme that generates galactose-1 phosphate, has been proposed as a novel strategy for treating classic galactosemia. Our previous work identified a highly selective unique dihydropyrimidine inhibitor against GALK1. With the determination of a co-crystal structure of this inhibitor with human GALK1, we initiated a structure-based structure-activity relationship (SAR) optimization campaign that yielded novel analogs with potent biochemical inhibition (IC50 100 nM). Lead compounds were also able to prevent gal-1P accumulation in patient-derived cells at low micromolar concentrations and have pharmacokinetic properties suitable for evaluation in rodent models of galactosemia.

This invention is directed to compounds of the formula (I): STR1 wherein R1 is --OR4 (where R4 is hydrogen, lower alkyl, lower hydroxyalkyl, phenyl, phenyl-lower-alkyl, or --(CH2)n Y where n is an integer from 1 to 4 and Y is morpholino, -SR5, --C(O)OR5, --C(O)N(R6)2, --N(R6)2, or --N+ (R6)3 X-, in which R5 is lower alkyl, each R6 is independently selected from hydrogen or lower alkyl, and X is halogen) or --SR7 (where R7 is lower alkyl, phenyl-lower-alkyl, or --(CH2)n W where W is --N(R6)2 or --N+ (R6)3 X-, and n, R6 and X are as previously defined); R2 is lower alkyl, phenyl or phenyl-lower-alkyl; R3 is halo, hydroxy, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, lower haloalkyl, lower haloalkoxy, or --C(O)OR5 where R5 is as previously defined; and Z is a bond, 2,5-thienyl or 2,5-furanyl; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. These compounds are useful in treating inflammation, autoimmune disease or allograft rejection in mammals.

Interaction of acetoacetanilide (Ia) or its hydroxy derivative (Ib) with aromatic or heterocyclic aldehydes gave the corresponding α, β unsaturated ketones (II).The reaction of alcoholic solution of (II) with thiourea in a basic catalyst gave the corresponding pyrimidinethione derivatives (III).Fusion of (III) with amines, active methylene, and methyl compounds gave the corresponding condensation products IV, V, and VI.
