Definitions
- Novel cyclopent-2-en-l-one derivativeswhich are PPAR receptor modulators, and use thereof in pharmaceutical or cosmetic compositions
- the inventionrelates to novel cyclopent-2-en-l-one derivatives which are modulators of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors, called PPARs. It also relates to the process for preparing them and to the use thereof in pharmaceutical compositions for use in human or veterinary medicine, or else in cosmetic compositions .
- Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptorsbelong to the superfamily of nuclear hormone receptors (Mangelsdorf , D.J. et al . Cell 1995, 83, 841-850). After activation by a ligand, these proteins act as transcription factors and regulate numerous physiological phenomena, such as reproduction, growth, differentiation, development, metabolic energy and homeostasis.
- the PPAR subfamily(Kliewer, S.A. et al. Nature 1992, 358, '71-774; Hertz, R. et al. J. Eur J. Biochem. 1996, 235, 242-247; Devchand, P.R. et al. Nature 1996, 384, 39-43; Spiegelman, B.M.
- PPAR ⁇ receptorsare strongly expressed in adipocyte tissues, and activate adipogenesis when they are bound to their natural ligands [ (S) -15-deoxy- ⁇ 12 ' 14 -PGJ 2 ] or synthetic ligands (thiazolidinediones or glitazones) . Together, the ⁇ and ⁇ isoforms regulate the balance between catabolism and. storage of fatty acid long chains.
- the PPAR ⁇ isoformlargely expressed in the brain, the colon and the skin, is a potential transcription repressor (Oliver, W.R. et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sex.
- a series of fatty acids and eicosanoidsbind and activate PPAR ⁇ s at micromolar concentrations.
- the PPAR ⁇ receptorbinds preferentially to polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as linoleic acid, linolenic acid, arachidonic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) .
- 15-lipooxygenase metabolitessuch as 9-HODE or 13-HODE 1 bind to the PPAR ⁇ receptor.
- the most potent natural ligand of PPAR ⁇ receptorsis the 15-deoxy- ⁇ 12 ' 14 - PGJ 2 prostaglandin. This metabolite of the prostaglandin J series induces adipocyte differentiation at low concentrations, of the order of one micromolar.
- Anti-diabetic thiazolidinedioneshave also been identified as PPAR ⁇ agonists, and it has been demonstrated that these molecules induce expression of the gene in adipocytes and stimulate differentiation of the latter in cell cultures.
- the compounds GI 262570, GW1920 and CW7045which are tyrosine derivatives, are selective and potent PPAR ⁇ antagonists (Henke, B.R. et al. J. Med. Chem. 1998, 41, 5020-5036. Collins, J.L. et al. J. Med. Chem. 1998, 41, 5037-5054. Cobb, J.E. et al. J. Med. Chem. 1998, 41, 5055-5069) .
- the S enantiomers(derived from natural L-tyrosine) are more potent and more selective PPAR ⁇ agonists than the R enantiomers .
- GW0207an indole-5-acetic acid derivative, is another PPAR ⁇ agonist.
- Indomethacina cyclooxygenase inhibitor
- Ibuprofen, fenoprofen and flumephenamic acidare also weak PPAR ⁇ agonists, but the activation requires higher concentrations than those required for the inhibition of cyclooxygenases.

Abstract
Description
Novel cyclopent-2-en-l-one derivatives which are PPAR receptor modulators, and use thereof in pharmaceutical or cosmetic compositions
The invention relates to novel cyclopent-2-en-l-one derivatives which are modulators of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors, called PPARs. It also relates to the process for preparing them and to the use thereof in pharmaceutical compositions for use in human or veterinary medicine, or else in cosmetic compositions .
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) belong to the superfamily of nuclear hormone receptors (Mangelsdorf , D.J. et al . Cell 1995, 83, 841-850). After activation by a ligand, these proteins act as transcription factors and regulate numerous physiological phenomena, such as reproduction, growth, differentiation, development, metabolic energy and homeostasis. The PPAR subfamily (Kliewer, S.A. et al. Nature 1992, 358, '71-774; Hertz, R. et al. J. Eur J. Biochem. 1996, 235, 242-247; Devchand, P.R. et al. Nature 1996, 384, 39-43; Spiegelman, B.M. Cell 1998, 93, 153-155, Kliewer S.A. et al. Science 1999, 284, 757-760; Willson, T.M. et al . J. Med. Chem. 2000, 43, 527-550) comprises three isoforms (α, γ and δ) which have different tissue distributions and exercise various physiological functions, and act as dietary lipid sensors for the control of carbohydrate and fatty acid metabolism (Willson, T.M. et al. J. Med. Chem. 2000, 43, 527-550) . PPARoc receptors are mainly expressed in the liver and, after binding with one of their ligands, for example a fibrate, stimulate lipid metabolization .
PPARγ receptors are strongly expressed in adipocyte tissues, and activate adipogenesis when they are bound to their natural ligands [ (S) -15-deoxy-Δ12'14-PGJ2] or synthetic ligands (thiazolidinediones or glitazones) . Together, the α and γ isoforms regulate the balance between catabolism and. storage of fatty acid long chains. Interestingly, the PPARδ isoform, largely expressed in the brain, the colon and the skin, is a potential transcription repressor (Oliver, W.R. et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sex. USA 2001, 98, 5306-5311), which inhibits the transcription activity induced by the ligands of the α and γ isoforms. The role of PPARδ receptors on anti-lipid oxidation and anti-adipogenesis opens up important and promising perspectives for the therapeutic control of obesity and type II diabetes.
A series of fatty acids and eicosanoids bind and activate PPARγs at micromolar concentrations. Unlike the PPARα receptor, the PPARγ receptor binds preferentially to polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as linoleic acid, linolenic acid, arachidonic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) .
Similarly, 15-lipooxygenase metabolites, such as 9-HODE or 13-HODE1 bind to the PPARγ receptor. The most potent natural ligand of PPARγ receptors is the 15-deoxy-Δ12'14- PGJ2 prostaglandin. This metabolite of the prostaglandin J series induces adipocyte differentiation at low concentrations, of the order of one micromolar.
Anti-diabetic thiazolidinediones (TZDs) or glitazones, such as rosiglitazone, pioglitazone or troglitazone, have also been identified as PPARγ agonists, and it has been demonstrated that these molecules induce expression of the gene in adipocytes and stimulate differentiation of the latter in cell cultures.
The compounds GI 262570, GW1920 and CW7045, which are tyrosine derivatives, are selective and potent PPARγ antagonists (Henke, B.R. et al. J. Med. Chem. 1998, 41, 5020-5036. Collins, J.L. et al. J. Med. Chem. 1998, 41, 5037-5054. Cobb, J.E. et al. J. Med. Chem. 1998, 41, 5055-5069) . Just like the TZDs, the S enantiomers (derived from natural L-tyrosine) are more potent and more selective PPARγ agonists than the R enantiomers . GW0207, an indole-5-acetic acid derivative, is another PPARγ agonist.
Indomethacin, a cyclooxygenase inhibitor, is also an inhibitor of eicosanoid biosynthesis and also a weak PPARγ agonist, which stimulates adipocyte differentiation at concentrations similar to those required for the activation of PPARγs. Ibuprofen, fenoprofen and flumephenamic acid are also weak PPARγ agonists, but the activation requires higher concentrations than those required for the inhibition of cyclooxygenases.
These compounds have a structure and a method of action (Michael addition on the sulphhydryl groups) similar to those of Δ7-PGA1 prostaglandins. However, these' compounds are unstable, which limits their use in chemotherapy. Δ7-PGA1S and methyl esters thereof are rapidly metabolized in rat serum by the action of PG isomerases (Negishi, M. et al. J. Lipid Mediators Cell Signalling 1995, 12, 443-448. Noyori, R. et al. Science 1993, 259, 44-45). Consequently, cyclopentenone derivatives which are more stable, exhibiting a similar PPAR activity, represent considerable stakes with respect to the search for derivatives that are active on PPAR receptors.

The compounds according to the present invention can be prepared according to the general process described hereinafter and illustrated on SCHEME 1.
The synthesis begins with the preparation of the trans- 4-hydroxycyclopentenone (2) substituted in the 5' position, from the alcohol (1), as shown by reaction b in accordance with the procedure described by Piancatelli et al., in Tetrahedron Lett. 1976, 3555- 3558, Tetrahedron 1978, 34, 2775-2778, Piancatelli, G. et al. Synthesis 1994, 867-889 and Synth. Commun. 1997, 116-117. The alcohol (1) is obtained by addition of a magnesium compound to furfural according to reaction a) .
The conversion of the compound (1) to compound (2) is carried out by rearrangement of a hydroxypentadienyl carbocation according to a Nazarov-type electrocyclic reaction (Nieto, 0. et al. Chemistry: Eur. J. , 2004, 10, 4324-4333) . In practice, the following conditions may be used: 2-furylcarbinol (1) is heated at 65°C for 48 h in the presence of sub-stoichiometric amounts of PPA (polyphosphoric acid) in a 2/1 (v/v) acetone/water mixture. The starting product is partially recovered . and recycled.
The reaction c consisting of protection of the alcohol function of the 4-hydroxycyclopentenone (2) in the form of a silyl ether (3) uses a treatment with TBDMSCl
(fcert-butyldimethylsilyl chloride) and triethylamine catalysed with DMAP (4-dimethylaminopyridine) in dichloromethane (Corey, E.J. et al. J. Am. Chemn. Soc. 1972, 94, 6190-6191) .
The reaction d consisting of formation of the α-iodo- cyclopentenone (4) is, for example, carried out by addition of a solution of iodine in a CH2Cl2/pyridine mixture to a solution of the compound (3) cooled to 00C (Johnson, CR. et al. Tetrahedron Lett. 1992, 33, 919- 922. Myers, A.G. et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1993, 115, 7021-7022) . The iodinated derivative obtained may be converted to a chloride, bromide or fluoride (Bioorganic Med. Chemistry Letters, 2004, 14, 2091- 2093) by conventional methods. This reaction d, is not carried out when it is desired to obtain compounds of formula (I) for which R3=H.
The reduction (reaction e) of the carbonyl group employs the use of an excess of Luche reagent (NaBH4, CeCl3 -7H2O in methanol), as described by Luche, J.L. in J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1978, 100, 2226-2227. Luche, J.L. et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1979, 101, 5848-5849. Gemal, A.L. et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1981, 203, 5454-
5459. In practice, the following conditions may be used: after a complexation time of 2 h, and an additional reaction time of 2 h, the (1S*, 4S*, 5R*) and
(1R* ,4S* ,5R*) diastereoisomer alcohols (5) are obtained. The mixture of diastereoisomers (5) is directly used in the subsequent stages.
The O-alkylation reaction (reaction f) is based on a conventional Williamson reaction (Johnstone, R.A.W. et al. Tetrahedron 1979, 35, 2169) . The treatment of the alcohol (5), with an iodide of structure I- (CH2)nC (O) OR4 (6), with n and R4 as defined for the compounds (I) and R4 other than a hydrogen atom, produces the ether (7) . This reaction is advantageously carried out in DMF for 35 min.
The desilylation of the compound (7) (reaction g) is carried out using a solution of nBu4NF in THF, advantageously at 250C for 10 h, and produces the alcohol (8) in the form of a mixture of the diastereoisomers .
The oxidation of the alcohol (8) with PDC (pyridinium dichromate) according to the reaction h is carried out according to the technique described by Corey, E.J. et al. Tetrahedron Lett. 1979, 20, 399, preferably in dichloromethane, for 12 h at 25°C, and produces the mixture of ketones (A) and (B) , separated by column chromatography .
The hydrolysis of the ester function of the ketones (A) and (B) according to reaction i is carried out in TFA. For example, this hydrolysis produces, respectively, the carboxylic acids (10) and (12) from the esters (9) and (11) . Subsequently, the compounds of general formula (I) in which R3 represents a radical as defined above, with the exception of a hydrogen atom and of a halogen atom, are obtained from the compounds of formula (A) or (B) for which R3 = halogen, by means of a Stille coupling reaction [Stille, J.K. et al. J. Am. Chem. SOC. 1987, 109, 2138-2152, (CH3CN)2PdCl2, CuI, AsPh3, NMP, 800C, 40 min] with a stannane derivative or a boronic acid derivative. By way of example, SCHEME 1 illustrates this reaction (reaction j) between tributyloet-1-ynylstannane and the iodides (9) and (11) to give, respectively, the compounds (13) and (14) . The hydrolysis of the ester function of the compounds (13) and (14) according to reaction i is carried out in TFA, and produces, respectively, the carboxylic acids (15) and (16) .
By coupling the compounds of formula (A) or (B) for which R4 = H with an amine HNR4R5 according to a conventional amidation reaction k, the compounds (C) or (D) are respectively obtained.
The set of compounds of general formula (A) , (B) , (C) and (D) represents the compounds of general formula (I) of the present invention.
The functional groups possibly present in the reaction intermediates used in the process can be protected, either in permanent form, or in temporary form, with protective groups which ensure one-to-one synthesis of the expected compounds . The protection and deprotection reactions are carried out according to techniques well known to those skilled in the art. The expression "temporary amine-, alcohol- or carboxylic acid- protecting group" is intended to mean protective groups such as those described in "Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry", publisher McOmie J.W. F., Plenum Press, 1973, in "Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis", 2nd edition, Greene T.W. and Wuts P.G.M., publisher John Wiley and Sons, 1991 and in "Protecting Groups", Kocienski P.J., 1994, Georg Thieme Verlag.
A subject of the present invention is therefore also a process for preparing the compounds of formula (I) according to the invention, comprising the following stages : a) stage consisting of addition between furfural and the compound BrMgR2, in order to obtain the corresponding 2-furylcarbinol ; b) rearrangement of the carbocation of hydroxypenta- dienyl obtained from the 2-furylcarbinol obtained in a) according to a Nazarov-type electrocyclic reaction, in order to obtain the corresponding hydroxycyclopentenone ; c) protection of the alcohol function of the hydroxycyclopentenone obtained in b) . This protection is carried out in particular by treatment with TBDMSCl; e) reduction of the carbonyl group of the cyclo- pentenone obtained, in order to obtain a mixture of the various corresponding diastereoisomeric alcohols; f) stage consisting of O-alkylation of the diastereoisomeric alcohols obtained in e) , with a halide of formula X-(CH2)H-C(O)OR4, X being a halogen atom, preferably an iodine atom, and n and R4 as defined for the compounds of formula (I) , R4 being other than a hydrogen atom; g) deprotection of the alcohol function of the compound obtained in f) ; h) oxidation of the alcohol function deprotected in g) , in order to obtain the corresponding ketone . The compounds derived from this process comprise, as R3 , a hydrogen atom.
When it is desired to obtain compounds comprising, as R3 , a halogen atom, the process comprises , between stages c) and e) , a stage d) consisting of α-addition of a halide to the compound obtained in c) , in order to obtain the corresponding α-halocyclopentenone. The halide used is in particular an iodide, bromide or chloride.
The compounds thus obtained comprise, as R3, a halogen atom (resulting from the α-addition d) ) or a hydrogen atom (without reaction d) ) , and, as R1, an -OR4 group. Since R4 is other than a hydrogen atom, this process can be continued by means of a stage i) consisting of hydrolysis of the ester function of the ketone compound obtained in h) , in order to obtain the corresponding acid (R4=H) .
Alternatively, the process comprises, after stage h) , a stage j) consisting of Stille coupling with a tin derivative, or Suzuki coupling with a boron derivative, said tin derivative or boron derivative containing the R3 group. The compounds derived from this stage thus contain an R3 group other than a halogen atom or than a hydrogen atom, and, as R1, an -OR4 group.
This time again, since R4 is other than a hydrogen atom, this process can be continued by means of a stage i) consisting of hydrolysis of the ester function of the compound obtained in j ) , in order to obtain the corresponding acid (R4=H) .
Finally, the process according to the invention can comprise, after the hydrolysis stage i) , a stage consisting of amidation by coupling of the compound obtained subsequent to the hydrolysis, with an amine of formula HNR4R5, R4 and R5 being as defined for the compounds of formula (I) . In this case, the compounds obtained contain, as R1, an -NR4R5 radical.
The compounds (I) according to the invention, and also the salts, solvates and/or hydrates thereof, exhibit
PPAR-receptor-modulating properties. This activity on
PPARα, δ and γ receptors is measured in a trans- activation test and quantified by virtue of the
(apparent) dissociation constant Kdapp, as described hereinafter. The preferred compounds of the present invention have a dissociation constant of less than or equal to 500 nM, and advantageously less than or equal to 100 nM. A subject of the present invention is also, as a medicament, the compounds of formula (I) as described above, in the form of pure optical and/or geometric isomers or as a mixture, in any proportions, and also the salts, pharmaceutically acceptable solvates and/or hydrates thereof .

EXAMPLE 11; CROSSED CURVE PPAR TRANSACTIVATION TEST
The activation of receptors with an agonist (activator) in HeLN cells leads to the expression of a reporter gene, luciferase, which, in the presence of a substrate, generates light. The modulation of the receptors is measured by quantifying the luminescence produced after incubation of the cells in the presence of a reference agonist. The ligands will displace the agonist from its site. The activity is measured by quantifying the light produced. This measurement makes it possible to determine the modulating activity of the compounds according to the invention by determining the constant which represents the affinity of the molecule for the receptor. This value, which can fluctuate according to the basal activity and expression of the receptor, is called the apparent Kd (KdApp in nM) .
To determine this constant, "crossed curves" of the product to be tested, against a reference agonist, are realized in a 96-well plate: 10 concentrations of the product to be tested plus a concentration 0 are arranged in rows, and 7 concentrations of the agonist plus a concentration 0 are arranged in columns. This represents 88 points of measurement for 1 product and 1 receptor. The remaining 8 wells are used for repeatability controls .
In each well, the cells are in contact with a concentration of the product to be tested and a concentration of the reference agonist, 2-(4-{2-[3- (2 , 4-difluorophenyl) -1-heptylureido] ethyl}phenyl- sulphanyl) -2-methylpropionic acid for PPARα, {2-methyl- 4- [4-methyl-2- (4-trifluoromethylphenyl) thiazol-5- ylmethylsulphanyl]phenoxy}acetic acid for PPARδ and 5- {4- [2-methylpyridin-2-ylamino) ethoxy] benzyl} - thiazolidine-2,4-dione for PPARγ. Measurements are also carried out for the total agonist controls with the same products.
The HeIiN cell lines used are stable transfectants containing the plasmids ERE-βGlob-Luc-SV-Neo (reporter gene) and PPAR (α, δ, γ) Gal-hPPAR. These cells are seeded into 96-well plates in a proportion of 10 000 cells per well, in 100 μl of DMEM medium without phenol red and supplemented with 10% of defatted calf serum. The plates are then incubated at 370C, 7% CO2, for 16 hours.
The various dilutions of the test compounds and of the reference ligand are added in a proportion of 5 μl per well. The plates are then incubated for 18 hours at 37°C, 7% CO2.
The culture medium is removed by inverting the plates and 100 μl of a 1:1 PBS/luciferin mixture are added to each well. After 5 minutes, the plates are read by means of the luminescence reader.
These crossed curves make it possible to determine the AC5Q values (concentration at which 50% activation is observed) of the reference ligand at various concentrations of product to be tested. These AC50 values are used to calculate the Schild regression by plotting a straight line corresponding to the Schild equation ( "quantitation in receptor pharmacology" Terry P. Kenakin, Receptors and Channels, 2001, 7, 371-385) which results in the Kd app values being obtained (in nM) .
Transactivation results:
These results show the affinity of the compounds for PPAR receptors, and more particularly for the PPARα or PPARδ subtypes.
