Hiv Integrase Inhibitors
|
MK-2048 is a second generation integrase inhibitor, intended to be used against HIV infection. It is superior to the first available integrase inhibitor,raltegravir, in that it inhibits the HIV enzyme integrase 4 times longer. It is being investigated for use as part of pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). [1]
It is being developed by Merck & Co.[2]
MK-2048 is a second generation integrase inhibitor for HIV-1 integrase. MK-2048 inhibits subtype B and subtype C integrase activities. MK-2048 inhibits R263K mutants slightly more effectively than G118R mutants.
MK-2048 inhibits S217H intasome and, by contrast, MK2048 remains fully active against the N224H intasome. MK2048 displays substantially lower dissociation rates compared with raltegravir, another integrase inhibitor.
MK-2048 is active against viruses resistant to RAL and EVG. MK-2048 exposure leads to the selection of G118R as a possible novel resistance mutation after 19 weeks. MK-2048, with continued pressure, subsequently leads to an additional substitution, at position E138K, after 29 weeks, within the IN gene.
Although the G118R mutation alone confers only slight resistance to MK-2048 but not to RAL or EVG, its presence arouses a dramatic reduction in viral replication capacity compared to wild-type NL4-3. E138K both partially restores viral replication capacity and also contributes to increased levels of resistance against MK-2048.

Step 12: (6S)-2-(3-Chloro-4-fluorobenzyl)-8-ethyl-10-hydroxy-N,6-dimethyl-1,9-dioxo-1,2,6,7,8,9-hexahydropyrazino[1′,2′:1,5]pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyridazine-4-carboxamide
To a solution of (6S)-2-(3-chloro-4-fluorobenzyl)-8-ethyl-10-methoxy-N,6-dimethyl-1,9-dioxo-1,2,6,7,8,9-hexahydropyrazino[1′,2′:1,5]pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyridazine-4-carboxamide (1.15 g, 2.41 mmol) in anhydrous dichloromethane (800 mL), a solution of boron tribromide in dichloromethane (3.14 mL, 3.14 mmol; 1 M) was added. After stirring at room temperature for 5 minutes, the reaction mixture was treated with anhydrous methanol, stirred for 30 minutes, and concentrated under vacuum. The procedure was repeated twice. The residue was dissolved in a mixture of methanol and acetonitrile and treated with aqueous sodium hydroxide. The mixture was subjected to purification on preparative reverse phase high pressure column chromatography. Collection and lyophilization of appropriate fractions provided the title compound as white amorphous solid.
1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.48 (dd, J=7.0, 2.2 Hz, 1H), 7.33 (m, 1H), 7.09 (t, J=8.7 Hz, 1H), 6.01 (m, 1H), 5.33 (d, J=14.1 Hz, 1H), 5.27 (d, J=14.1 Hz, 1H), 3.99 (dd, J=12.8, 4.0 Hz, 1 H), 3.71 (heptet, J=7.1 Hz, 1 H), 3.49 (heptet, J=7.1 Hz, 1 H), 3.24 (dd, J=13.2, 1.5 Hz, 1 H), 3.03 (d, J=5.1 Hz, 3H), 1.42 (d, J=6.6 Hz, 3H), 1.24 (t, J=7.3 Hz, 3H). ES MS M+1=462
The amorphous product was dissolved in boiling methanol (1.4 g/200 mL). Upon cooling in an ice-water bath, a precipitate formed which was separated by obtained by filtration to afford a white crystalline solid.
The corresponding sodium salt was prepared by treatment of a solution of (6S)-2-(3-chloro-4-fluorobenzyl)-8-ethyl-10-hydroxy-N,6-dimethyl-1,9-dioxo-1,2,6,7,8,9-hexahydropyrazino[1′,2′:1,5]pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyridazine-4-carboxamide (920 mg, 1.99 mmol) in aqueous acetonitrile with aqueous sodium hydroxide (1.03 equivalent), followed by lyophilization of the resultant solution.
