WO 00/48603 PCT/US00/03796 TITLE OF THE INVENTION DIBENZO-AZEPINE DERIVATIVES AS uV INTEGRIN RECEPTOR ANTAGONISTS 5 FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to dibenzo-azepine derivatives, their synthesis, and their use as xv integrin receptor antagonists. More particularly, the compounds of the present invention are antagonists of the integrin receptors cxvf3, cvI5, and/or axv36 and are useful for inhibiting bone resorption, treating and 10 preventing osteoporosis, and inhibiting vascular restenosis, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, angiogenesis, atherosclerosis, inflammation, wound healing, viral disease, tumor growth, and metastasis. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 15 It is believed that a wide variety of disease states and conditions can be mediated by acting on integrin receptors and that integrin receptor antagonists represent a useful class of drugs. Integrin receptors are heterodimeric transmembrane receptors through which cells attach and communicate with extracellular matrices and other cells. (See S.B. Rodan and G.A. Rodan, "Integrin Function In Osteoclasts", 20 Journal of Endocrinology, Vol. 154, S47- S56 (1997), which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety). In one aspect of the present invention, the compounds herein are useful for inhibiting bone resorption. Bone resorption is mediated by the action of cells known as osteoclasts. Osteoclasts are large multinucleated cells of up to about 400 25 mm in diameter that resorb mineralized tissue, chiefly calcium carbonate and calcium phosphate, in vertebrates. Osteoclasts are actively motile cells that migrate along the surface of bone, and can bind to bone, secrete necessary acids and proteases, thereby causing the actual resorption of mineralized tissue from the bone. More specifically, osteoclasts are believed to exist in at least two physiological states, namely, the 30 secretory state and the migratory or motile state. In the secretory state, osteoclasts are flat, attach to the bone matrix via a tight attachment zone (sealing zone), become highly polarized, form a ruffled border, and secrete lysosomal enzymes and protons to resorb bone. The adhesion of osteoclasts to bone surfaces is an important initial step in bone resorption. In the migratory or motile state, the osteoclasts migrate across 35 bone matrix and do not take part in resorption until they again attach to bone.

WO 00/48603 PCT/US00/03796 av Integrins are involved in osteoclast attachment, activation and migration. The most abundant av integrin in osteoclasts, e.g., in rat, chicken, mouse and human osteoclasts, is an integrin receptor known as cvf33, which is thought to interact in bone with matrix proteins that contain the RGD sequence. Antibodies to 5 uv3 block bone resorption in vitro indicating that this integrin plays a key role in the resorptive process. There is increasing evidence to suggest that avI33 ligands can be used effectively to inhibit osteoclast mediated bone resorption in vivo in mammals. The current major bone diseases of public concern are osteoporosis, hypercalcemia of malignancy, osteopenia due to bone metastases, periodontal disease, 10 hyperparathyroidism, periarticular erosions in rheumatoid arthritis, Paget's disease, immobilization-induced osteopenia, and glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis. All of these conditions are characterized by bone loss, resulting from an imbalance between bone resorption, i.e. breakdown, and bone formation, which continues throughout life at the rate of about 14% per year on the average. However, the rate of bone turnover 15 differs from site to site; for example, it is higher in the trabecular bone of the vertebrae and the alveolar bone in the jaws than in the cortices of the long bones. The potential for bone loss is directly related to turnover and can amount to over 5% per year in vertebrae immediately following menopause, a condition which leads to increased fracture risk. 20 In the United States, there are currently about 20 million people with detectable fractures of the vertebrae due to osteoporosis. In addition, there are about 250,000 hip fractures per year attributed to osteoporosis. This clinical situation is associated with a 12% mortality rate within the first two years, while 30% of the patients require nursing home care after the fracture. 25 Individuals suffering from all the conditions listed above would benefit from treatment with agents which inhibit bone resorption. Additionally, cvI33 ligands have been found to be useful in treating and/or inhibiting restenosis, i.e. recurrence of stenosis after corrective surgery on the heart valve, atherosclerosis, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, and 30 angiogenesis, i.e. formation of new blood vessels, and inhibiting viral disease. Moreover, it has been postulated that the growth of tumors depends on an adequate blood supply, which in turn is dependent on the growth of new vessels into the tumor; thus, inhibition of angiogenesis can cause tumor regression in animal models (See Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine, 12th ed., 1991, which is incorporated by -2- WO 00/48603 PCT/US00/03796 reference herein in its entirety). Therefore, cav3 antagonists which inhibit angiogenesis can be useful in the treatment of cancer by inhibiting tumor growth (See, e.g., Brooks et al., Cell, 79:1157-1164 (1994), which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety). 5 Moreover, compounds of this invention can also inhibit neovascularization by acting as antagonists of the integrin receptor, cvP5. A monoclonal antibody for cv35 has been shown to inhibit VEGF-induced angiogenesis in rabbit cornea and the chick chorioallantoic membrane model (See M.C. Friedlander, et.al., Science 270: 1500-1502 (1995), which is incorporated by reference 10 herein in its entirety). Thus, compounds that antagonize av35 are useful for treating and preventing macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, tumor growth, and metastasis. Additionally, compounds of the instant invention can inhibit angiogenesis and inflammation by acting as antagonists of the integrin receptor, av136, 15 which is expressed during the later stages of wound healing and remains expressed until the wound is closed (See Christofidou-Solomidou, et al., "Expression and Function of Endothelial Cell av Integrin Receptors in Wound-Induced Human Angiogenesis in Human Skin/SCID Mice Chimeras, American Journal of Pathology, Vol. 151, No. 4, pp. 975-983 (October 1997), which is incorporated by reference 20 herein in its entirety). It is postulated that av36 plays a role in the remodeling of the vasculature during the later stages of angiogenesis. Also, cv36 participates in the modulation of epithelial inflammation and is induced in response to local injury or inflammation (See Xiao-Zhu Huang, et al., "Inactivation of the Integrin 036 Subunit Gene Reveals a Role of Epithelial Integrins in Regulating Inflammation in the Lungs 25 and Skin," Journal of Cell Biology, Vol. 133, No.4, pp. 921-928 (May 1996), which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety). Accordingly, compounds that antagonize cv36 are useful in treating or preventing cancer by inhibiting tumor growth and metastasis. In addition, certain compounds of this invention antagonize both the 30 uv33 and ov35 receptors. These compounds, referred to as "dual ov33/avP35 antagonists," are useful for inhibiting bone resorption, treating and preventing osteoporosis, and inhibiting vascular restenosis, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, angiogenesis, atherosclerosis, inflammation, viral disease, tumor growth, and metastasis. -3- WO 00/48603 PCT/US00/03796 In addition, certain compounds of this invention are useful as mixed uvw33, av35, and uv36 receptor antagonists. Peptidyl as well as peptidomimetic antagonists of the av33 integrin receptor have been described both in the scientific and patent literature. For example, 5 reference is made to W.J. Hoekstra and B.L. Poulter, Curr. Med. Chem. 5:195-204 (1998) and references cited therein; WO 95/32710; WO 95/37655; WO 97/01540; WO 97/37655; WO 98/08840; WO 98/18460; WO 98/18461; WO 98/25892; WO 98/31359; WO 98/30542; EP 853084; EP 854140; EP 854145; and US Patent No. 5,780,426. Evidence of the ability of av33 integrin receptor antagonists to prevent 10 bone resorption in vitro and in vivo has been presented (see V.W. Engleman et al., "A Peptidomimetic Antagonist of the ovI33 Integrin Inhibits Bone Resorption inVitro and Prevents Osteoporosis in Vivo," J. Clin. Invest. 99: 2284-2292 (1997); S.B. Rodan et al., "A High Affinity Non-Peptide cav33 Ligand Inhibits Osteoclast Activity In Vitro and InVivo," J. Bone Miner. Res. 11: S289 (1996); J.F. Gourvest et al., "Prevention 15 of OVX-Induced Bone Loss With a Non-peptidic Ligand of the Uv33 Vitronectin Receptor," Bone 23: S612 (1998); M.W. Lark et al., "An Orally Active Vitronectin Receptor av33 Antagonist Prevents Bone Resorption In Vitro and In Vivo in the Ovariectomized Rat," Bone 23: S219 (1998)). The ov133 integrin receptor recognizes the Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) 20 tripeptide sequence in its cognate matrix and cell surface glycoproteins (see J. Samanen, et al., "Vascular Indications for Integrin av Antagonists," Curr. Pharmaceut. Design 3: 545-584 (1997)). A benzazepine nucleus has been employed among others by Genentech and SmithKline Beecham as a conformationally constrained Gly-Asp mimetic to elaborate nonpeptide ccv33 integrin receptor 25 antagonists substituted at the N-terminus with heterocyclic arginine mimetics (see R.M. Keenan et al., "Discovery of Potent Nonpeptide Vitronectin Receptor (uv33) Antagonists," J. Med. Chem. 40: 2289-2292 (1997); R.M. Keenan et al., "Benzimidazole Derivatives As Arginine Mimetics in 1,4-Benzodiazepine Nonpeptide Vitronectin Receptor (uv33) Antagonists," Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 8: 30 3165-3170 (1998); and R.M. Keenan et al., "Discovery of an Imidazopyridine Containing 1,4-Benzodiazepine Nonpeptide Vitronectin Receptor (0v33) Antagonist With Efficacy in a Restenosis Model," Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 8: 3171-3176 (1998). Patents assigned to SmithKline Beecham that disclose such benzazepine based av33 integrin receptor antagonists include WO 96/00574, WO 96/00730, WO 35 96/06087, WO 96/26190, WO 97/24119, WO 97/24122, WO 97/24124, and WO -4- WO 00/48603 PCT/US00/03796 98/15278 and to Genentech include WO 97/34865. The dibenzocycloheptene nucleus has also been employed as a Gly-Asp mimetic to afford uv33 antagonists (see WO 97/01540 and WO 98/30542 both assigned to SmithKline Beecham). However, there still remains a need for small-molecule, selective uv integrin receptor antagonists that 5 display improved potency, pharmacodynamic, and pharmacokinetic properties, such as oral bioavailability and significant duration of action. Such compounds would prove to be useful for the treatment, prevention, or suppression of various pathologies enumerated above that are mediated by av binding and cell adhesion and activation. It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide dibenzo 10 azepine derivatives which are useful as cv integrin receptor antagonists. It is another object of the present invention to provide dibenzo-azepine derivatives which are useful as ev33 receptor antagonists. It is another object of the present invention to provide dibenzo-azepine derivatives which are useful as cv35 receptor antagonists. 15 It is another object of the present invention to provide dibenzo-azepine derivatives which are useful as uv36 receptor antagonists. It is another object of the present invention to provide dibenzo-azepine derivatives which are useful as dual av33/cavI5 receptor antagonists. It is another object of the present invention to provide dibenzo-azepine 20 derivatives which are useful as mixed av133, av35, and uv36 receptor antagonists. It is another object of the present invention to provide pharmaceutical compositions comprising Uv integrin receptor antagonists. It is another object of the present invention to provide methods for making the pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention. 25 It is another object of the present invention to provide methods for eliciting an av integrin receptor antagonizing effect in a mammal in need thereof by administering the compounds and pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention. It is another object of the present invention to provide compounds and 30 pharmaceutical compositions useful for inhibiting bone resorption, restenosis, atherosclerosis, inflammation, viral disease, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, angiogenesis, tumor growth, and metastasis. It is another object of the present invention to provide compounds and pharmaceutical compositions useful for treating osteoporosis. -5- WO 00/48603 PCT/US00/03796 It is another object of the present invention to provide methods for inhibiting bone resorption, restenosis, atherosclerosis, inflammation, viral disease, diabetic retinopathy, macular degeneration, angiogenesis, tumor growth, and metastasis. 5 It is another object of the present invention to provide methods for treating osteoporosis.

Also exemplifying the invention are compositions further comprising an active ingredient selected from the group consisting of 10 a.) an organic bisphosphonate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or ester thereof, b.) an estrogen receptor modulator, c.) a cytotoxic/antiproliferative agent, d.) a matrix metalloproteinase inhibitor, 15 e.) an inhibitor of epidermal-derived, fibroblast-derived, or platelet derived growth factors, f.) an inhibitor of VEGF, g.) an inhibitor of Flk-1/KDR, Flt-1, Tck/Tie-2, or Tie-1, h.) a cathepsin K inhibitor, and 20 i.) a prenylation inhibitor, such as a farnesyl transferase inhibitor or a geranylgeranyl transferase inhibitor or a dual farnesyl/geranylgeranyl transferase inhibitor; and mixtures thereof. (See B. Millauer et al., "Dominant-Negative Inhibition of Flk-1 Suppresses the 25 Growth of Many Tumor Types in Vivo", Cancer Research, 56, 1615-1620 (1996), which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety). Preferably, the active ingredient is selected from the group consisting of: a.) an organic bisphosphonate or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or 30 ester thereof, b.) an estrogen receptor modulator, and c.) a cathepsin K inhibitor; and mixtures thereof. Nonlimiting examples of such bisphosphonates include alendronate, 35 etidronate, pamidronate, risedronate, ibandronate, and pharmaceutically acceptable -32- WO 00/48603 PCT/US00/03796 salts and esters thereof. A particularly preferred bisphosphonate is alendronate, especially alendronate monosodium trihydrate. Nonlimiting examples of estrogen receptor modulators include estrogen, progesterin, estradiol, droloxifene, raloxifene, and tamoxifene. 5 Nonlimiting examples of cytotoxic/antiproliferative agents are taxol, vincristine, vinblastine, and doxorubicin. Cathepsin K, formerly known as cathepsin 02, is a cysteine protease and is described in PCT International Application Publication No. WO 96/13523, published May 9, 1996; U.S. Patent No. 5,501,969, issued March 3, 1996; and U.S. 10 Patent No. 5,736,357, issued April 7, 1998, all of which are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety. Cysteine proteases, specifically cathepsins, are linked to a number of disease conditions, such as tumor metastasis, inflammation, arthritis, and bone remodeling. At acidic pH's, cathepsins can degrade type-I collagen. Cathepsin protease inhibitors can inhibit osteoclastic bone resorption by inhibiting the 15 degradation of collagen fibers and are thus useful in the treatment of bone resorption diseases, such as osteoporosis. The present invention is also directed to combinations of the compounds of the present invention with one or more agents useful in the prevention or treatment of osteoporosis. For example, the compounds of the instant invention 20 may be effectively administered in combination with effective amounts of other agents such as an organic bisphosphonate, an estrogen receptor modulator, or a cathepsin K inhibitor. Additional illustrations of the invention are methods of treating tumor growth or metastasis in a mammal in need thereof, comprising administering to the 25 mammal a therapeutically effective amount of a compound described above and one or more agents known to be cytotoxic/antiproliferative. Also, the compounds of the present invention can be administered in combination with radiation therapy for treating tumor growth and metastasis. In addition, the integrin cv133 antagonist compounds of the present 30 invention may be effectively administered in combination with a growth hormone secretagogue in the therapeutic or prophylactic treatment of disorders in calcium or phosphate metabolism and associated diseases. These diseases include conditions which can benefit from a reduction in bone resorption. A reduction in bone resorption should improve the balance between resorption and formation, reduce bone loss or 35 result in bone augmentation. A reduction in bone resorption can alleviate the pain -33- WO 00/48603 PCT/US00/03796 associated with osteolytic lesions and reduce the incidence and/or growth of those lesions. These diseases include: osteoporosis (including estrogen deficiency, immobilization, glucocorticoid-induced and senile), osteodystrophy, Paget's disease, myositis ossificans, Bechterew's disease, malignant hypercalcemia, metastatic bone 5 disease, periodontal disease, cholelithiasis, nephrolithiasis, urolithiasis, urinary calculus, hardening of the arteries (sclerosis), arthritis, bursitis, neuritis and tetany. Increased bone resorption can be accompanied by pathologically high calcium and phosphate concentrations in the plasma, which would be alleviated by this treatment. Similarly, the present invention would be useful in increasing bone mass in patients 10 with growth hormone deficiency. Thus, preferred combinations are simultaneous or alternating treatments of an av33 receptor antagonist of the present invention and a growth hormone secretagogue, optionally including a third component comprising an organic bisphosphonate, preferably alendronate monosodium trihydrate. In accordance with the method of the present invention, the individual 15 components of the combination can be administered separately at different times during the course of therapy or concurrently in divided or single combination forms. The instant invention is therefore to be understood as embracing all such regimes of simultaneous or alternating treatment, and the term "administering" is to be interpreted accordingly. It will be understood that the scope of combinations of the 20 compounds of this invention with other agents useful for treating integrin-mediated conditions includes in principle any combination with any pharmaceutical composition useful for treating osteoporosis. As used herein, the term "composition" is intended to encompass a product comprising the specified ingredients in the specified amounts, as well as any 25 product which results, directly or indirectly, from combination of the specified ingredients in the specified amounts. The compounds of the present invention can be administered in such oral dosage forms as tablets, capsules (each of which includes sustained release or timed release formulations), pills, powders, granules, elixirs, tinctures, suspensions, 30 syrups and emulsions. Likewise, they may also be administered in intravenous (bolus or infusion), intraperitoneal, topical (e.g., ocular eyedrop), subcutaneous, intramuscular or transdermal (e.g., patch) form, all using forms well known to those of ordinary skill in the pharmaceutical arts. An effective but non-toxic amount of the compound desired can be employed as an av133 antagonist. -34- WO 00/48603 PCT/US00/03796 The dosage regimen utilizing the compounds of the present invention is selected in accordance with a variety of factors including type, species, age, weight, sex and medical condition of the patient; the severity of the condition to be treated; the route of administration; the renal and hepatic function of the patient; and the 5 particular compound or salt thereof employed. An ordinarily skilled physician, veterinarian or clinician can readily determine and prescribe the effective amount of the drug required to prevent, counter or arrest the progress of the condition. Oral dosages of the present invention, when used for the indicated effects, will range between about 0.01 mg per kg of body weight per day (mg/kg/day) 10 to about 100 mg/kg/day, preferably 0.01 to 10 mg/kg/day, and most preferably 0.1 to 5.0 mg/kg/day. For oral administration, the compositions are preferably provided in the form of tablets containing 0.01, 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 2.5, 5.0, 10.0, 15.0, 25.0, 50.0, 100 and 500 milligrams of the active ingredient for the symptomatic adjustment of the dosage to the patient to be treated. A medicament typically contains from about 0.01 15 mg to about 500 mg of the active ingredient, preferably, from about 1 mg to about 100 mg of active ingredient. Intravenously, the most preferred doses will range from about 0.1 to about 10 mg/kg/minute during a constant rate infusion. Advantageously, compounds of the present invention may be administered in a single daily dose, or the total daily dosage may be administered in divided doses of two, three or four times 20 daily. Furthermore, preferred compounds for the present invention can be administered in intranasal form via topical use of suitable intranasal vehicles, or via transdermal routes, using those forms of transdermal skin patches well known to those of ordinary skill in the art. To be administered in the form of a transdermal delivery system, the dosage administration will, of course, be continuous rather than 25 intermittent throughout the dosage regimen. In the methods of the present invention, the compounds herein described in detail can form the active ingredient, and are typically administered in admixture with suitable pharmaceutical diluents, excipients or carriers (collectively referred to herein as 'carrier'materials) suitably selected with respect to the intended 30 form of administration, that is, oral tablets, capsules, elixirs, syrups and the like, and consistent with conventional pharmaceutical practices. For instance, for oral administration in the form of a tablet or capsule, the active drug component can be combined with an oral, non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable, inert carrier such as lactose, starch, sucrose, glucose, methyl cellulose, 35 magnesium stearate, dicalcium phosphate, calcium sulfate, mannitol, sorbitol and the -35- WO 00/48603 PCT/US00/03796 like; for oral administration in liquid form, the oral drug components can be combined with any oral, non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable inert carrier such as ethanol, glycerol, water and the like. Moreover, when desired or necessary, suitable binders, lubricants, disintegrating agents and coloring agents can also be incorporated into the 5 mixture. Suitable binders include starch, gelatin, natural sugars such as glucose or beta-lactose, corn sweeteners, natural and synthetic gums such as acacia, tragacanth or sodium alginate, carboxymethylcellulose, polyethylene glycol, waxes and the like. Lubricants used in these dosage forms include sodium oleate, sodium stearate, magnesium stearate, sodium benzoate, sodium acetate, sodium chloride and the like. 10 Disintegrators include, without limitation, starch, methyl cellulose, agar, bentonite, xanthan gum and the like. The compounds of the present invention can also be administered in the form of liposome delivery systems, such as small unilamellar vesicles, large unilamellar vesicles and multilamellar vesicles. Liposomes can be formed from a 15 variety of phospholipids, such as cholesterol, stearylamine or phosphatidylcholines. Compounds of the present invention may also be delivered by the use of monoclonal antibodies as individual carriers to which the compound molecules are coupled. The compounds of the present invention may also be coupled with soluble polymers as targetable drug carriers. Such polymers can include 20 polyvinylpyrrolidone, pyran copolymer, polyhydroxypropylmethacrylamide-phenol, polyhydroxy-ethylaspartamide-phenol, or polyethyleneoxide-polylysine substituted with palmitoyl residues. Furthermore, the compounds of the present invention may be coupled to a class of biodegradable polymers useful in achieving controlled release of a drug, for example, polylactic acid, polyglycolic acid, copolymers of polylactic and 25 polyglycolic acid, polyepsilon caprolactone, polyhydroxy butyric acid, polyorthoesters, polyacetals, polydihydropyrans, polycyanoacrylates and crosslinked or amphipathic block copolymers of hydrogels.

The novel compounds of the present invention can be prepared according to the procedures depicted below in Schemes 1 and 2 using appropriate starting materials which are either available from commercial sources or readily made 30 according to methods well-described in the published chemical literature. The following general synthetic methods can be employed to prepare the compounds of the present invention. Compounds wherein both W and X represent oxygen can be prepared according to the methods of Scheme 1. The required dibenzooxazepinone intermediate 1-3 is prepared in a 3-step sequence from 35 2 -fluoronitrobenzene and methyl 4 -methoxysalicylate. Alkylation of the seven -37- WO 00/48603 PCT/US00/03796 membered ring amide nitrogen is effected with an alkyl bromo- or iodoacetate in the presence of an appropriate base, such as sodium or potassium hydride, in a suitable solvent, such as tetrahydrofuran, N,N-dimethylformamide, or dimethyl sulfoxide. Compounds wherein X is sulfur and W is oxygen can be made in a similar fashion but 5 using methyl 4-methoxythiosalicylate in place of methyl 4 -methoxysalicylate to elaborate the dibenzothiazepinone substrate. Compounds wherein X represents

2 can be prepared by treatment of the dibenzothiazepinone intermediate with one or two molar equivalents of a suitable oxidizing agent, respectively, such as meta chloroperbenzoic acid (MCPBA), magnesium monoperoxyphthalate, sodium 10 metaperiodate, sodium perborate, or Oxone, in a suitable reaction solvent, such as diethyl ether, tetrahydrofuran, methylene chloride, chloroform, or methanol. Compounds wherein W is (H)2 can be prepared by treatment of the precursor wherein W is oxygen with a suitable reducing agent, such as lithium aluminum hydride, diborane, or borane-methyl sulfide in a suitable solvent, such as diethyl ether, 15 tetrahydrofuran, or methylene chloride. Compounds wherein Z-Y represents Z-(CH2)m-O- can be prepared by alkylation of a phenolic intermediate such as 1-5 (obtainable by demethylation of the anisole intermediate 1-4) using Mitsunobu-type conditions (triphenylphospine, dialkyl azodicarboxylate) (Synthesis 1981, 1-28; Organic Reactions 1992, 42, 335-656) in the 20 presence of the alcohol reagent, Z(optionally protected)-(CH2)m-OH. Removal of any Z-protecting group followed by further manipulation, such as catalytic hydrogenation in the presence of a palladium catalyst or catalytic transfer hydrogenation and/or removal of any C-terminus carboxylic acid protecting group, such as by alkaline hydrolysis, affords the desired final compounds of the present 25 invention. Compounds wherein Z-Y represents Z-(CH2)m-S- can be prepared by alkylation of a thiophenol precursor corresponding to 1-5 with an alkyl halide, such as Z(optionally protected)-(CH2)m-I, in the presence of a suitable inorganic or organic base, followed by removal of any Z-protecting group and further manipulation, such 30 as catalytic hydrogenation and/or removal of any C-terminus carboxylic acid protecting group, such as by alkaline hydrolysis. The thiophenol intermediate can be prepared from the phenol by means of the Newman-Karnes procedure. Treatment of the Z(optionally protected)-(CH2)m-S- intermediate with one or two equivalents of a suitable oxidizing agent, such as MCPBA in methylene chloride, and subsequent N -38- WO 00/48603 PCT/US00/03796 and C-termini deprotection, give the compounds of the present invention wherein Z-Y represents Z-(CH2)m-S(O)- and Z-(CH2)m-S(O)2, respectively. Compounds wherein Z-Y represents Z-(CH2)m-N(R 4 )-C(=O)- are prepared by converting a phenolic intermediate, such as 1-5, into its benzoic acid 5 derivative. This can be accomplished, for example, by converting the phenol into its trifluoromethanesulfonate ester followed by carbonyl insertion with carbon monoxide in the presence of potassium acetate, a palladium catalyst, such as palladium acetate, and 1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene (dppf). Alternatively, the trifluoromethanesulfonate ester can be converted into its benzonitrile derivative with 10 copper(I) cyanide in DMF, which is then hydrolyzed to the benzoic acid under standard conditions. Amide bond formation is then carried out using standard coupling reagents, such as BOP, under conditions well-known to practitioners of the art of synthetic organic chemistry. Final N- and C-termini deprotection affords the desired final compounds of the present invention. 15 The compounds illustrated in the examples below are not to be construed as forming the only genus that is considered as the invention. They serve to further illustrate details for the preparation of the compounds of the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily understand that known variations of the conditions and processes of the following synthetic procedures can be used to prepare these 20 compounds. All temperatures are degrees Celsius unless otherwise noted. -39- WO 00/48603 PCT/US00/03796 SCHEME 1

For analytical and preparative HPLC, a Vydac peptide-protein C-18 column, 4.6 x 250 mm was used with a C-18 Brownlee modular 25 guard column. The acetonitrile used for the HPLC analyses was Fisher Optima grade. The HPLC radiodetector used was a Beckman 170 Radioisotope detector. A Vydac C-18 protein and peptide column, 3.9 x 250 mm was used for analytical and preparative HPLC. Solutions of radioactivity were concentrated using a Speedvac vacuum centrifuge. Calibration curves and chemical concentrations were determined 30 using a Hewlett Packard Model 8452A UV/Vis Diode Array Spectrophotometer. Sample radioactivities were determined in a Packard A5530 gamma counter. The test procedures employed to measure cvI33 and avw35 binding and the bone resorption inhibiting activity of the compounds of the present invention are described below. -55- WO 00/48603 PCT/US00/03796 BONE RESORPTION-PIT ASSAY When osteoclasts engage in bone resorption, they can cause the formation of pits in the surface of bone that they are acting upon. Therefore, when 5 testing compounds for their ability to inhibit osteoclasts, it is useful to measure the ability of osteoclasts to excavate these resorption pits when the inhibiting compound is present. Consecutive 200 micron thick cross sections from a 6 mm cylinder of bovine femur diaphysis are cut with a low speed diamond saw (Isomet, Beuler, Ltd., 10 Lake Bluff, I1I). Bone slices are pooled, placed in a 10% ethanol solution and refrigerated until further use. Prior to experimentation, bovine bone slices are ultrasonicated twice, 20 minutes each in H20. Cleaned slices are placed in 96 well plates such that two control lanes and one lane for each drug dosage are available. Each lane represents 15 either triplicate or quadruplicate cultures. The bone slices in 96 well plates are sterilized by UV irradiation. Prior to incubation with osteoclasts, the bone slices are hydrated by the addition of 0.1 ml cLMEM, pH 6.9 containing 5% fetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. Long bones from 7-14 day old rabbits (New Zealand White Hare) are 20 dissected, cleaned of soft tissue and placed in uMEM containing 20 mM HEPES. The bones are minced using scissors until the pieces are <1 mm and transferred to a 50 ml tube in a volume of 25 ml. The tube is rocked gently by hand for 60 cycles, the tissue is sedimented for 1 min., and the supernatant is removed. Another 25 ml of medium is added to the tissue and rocked again. The second supernatant is combined 25 with the first. The number of cells is counted excluding erythrocytes (typically ~ 2 x 107 cells/ml). A cell suspension consisting of 5 x 10 6 /ml in aIMEM containing 5% fetal bovine serum, 10 nM 1,25(OH)2D3, and pencillin-streptomycin is prepared. 200 ml aliquots are added to bovine bone slices (200 mm x 6 mm) and incubated for 2 hrs. at 37 0 C in a humidified 5% CO2 atmosphere. The medium is removed gently with a 30 micropipettor and fresh medium containing test compounds is added. The cultures are incubated for 48 hrs., and assayed for c-telopeptide (fragments of the al chain of type I collagen) by Crosslaps for culture media (Herlev, Denmark). Bovine bone slices are exposed to osteoclasts for 20-24 hrs and are processed for staining. Tissue culture media is removed from each bone slice. Each 35 well is washed with 200 ml of H20, and the bone slices are then fixed for 20 minutes -56- WO 00/48603 PCT/US00/03796 in 2.5% glutaraldehyde, 0.1 M cacodylate, pH 7.4. After fixation, any remaining cellular debris is removed by 2 min. ultrasonication in the presence of 0.25 M NH4OH followed by 2 X 15 min ultrasonication in H20. The bone slices are immediately stained for 6-8 min with filtered 1% toluidine blue and 1% borax. 5 After the bone slices have dried, resorption pits are counted in test and control slices. Resorption pits are viewed in a Microphot Fx (Nikon) fluorescence microscope using a polarizing Nikon IGS filter cube. Test dosage results are compared with controls and resulting IC50 values are determined for each compound tested. 10 The appropriateness of extrapolating data from this assay to mammalian (including human) disease states is supported by the teaching found in Sato, M., et al., Journal of Bone and Mineral Research, Vol. 5, No. 1, pp. 31-40, 1990, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety. This article teaches that certain bisphosphonates have been used clinically and appear to be effective in the 15 treatment of Paget's disease, hypercalcemia of malignancy, osteolytic lesions produced by bone metastases, and bone loss due to immobilization or sex hormone deficiency. These same bisphosphonates are then tested in the resorption pit assay described above to confirm a correlation between their known utility and positive performance in the assay. 20 EIB ASSAY Duong et al., J. Bone Miner. Res., 8: S378 (1993), describes a system for expressing the human integrin mv33. It has been suggested that the integrin stimulates attachment of osteoclasts to bone matrix, since antibodies against the 25 integrin, or RGD-containing molecules, such as echistatin (European Publication 382 451), can effectively block bone resorption.

The unbound and the bound cv33 were separated by filtration using a Skatron Cell Harvester. The filters (prewet in 1.5% poly-ethyleneimine for 10 mins) were then 5 washed with the wash buffer (50 mM Tris HC1, 1mM CaCl2/MgCl2, pH 7.2). The filter was then counted in a gamma counter.

Cells were seeded at 40,000/well in the morning. In the afternoon, bone marrow cells were prepared from six week old male Balb/C mice as follows: Mice were sacrificed, tibiae removed and placed in the above medium. The ends were cut off and the marrow was flushed out of the cavity into a tube with a 1 mL syringe with a 27.5 gauge needle. The marrow was suspended by pipetting up 10 and down. The suspension was passed through >100 mm nylon cell strainer. The resulting suspension was centrifuged at 350 x g for seven minutes. The pellet was resuspended, and a sample was diluted in 2% acetic acid to lyse the red cells. The remaining cells were counted in a hemacytometer. The cells were pelleted and resuspended at 1 x 106 cells/mL. 50 1tL was added to each well of 1.8 cells to yield 15 50,000 cells/well and 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 (D3) was added to each well to a final concentration of 10 nM. The cultures were incubated at 37 0 C in a humidified, 5% CO2 atmosphere. After 48 h, the medium was changed. 72 h after the addition of bone marrow, test compounds were added with fresh medium containing D3 to quadruplicate wells. Compounds were added again after 48 h with fresh medium 20 containing D3. After an additional 48 h., the medium was removed, cells were fixed with 10% formaldehyde in phosphate buffered saline for 10 minutes at room temperature, followed by a 1-2 minute treatment with ethanol:acetone (1:1) and air dried.
