ABSTRACT:

FIELD OF INVENTION
The invention relates to antitumor antibiotics. More particularly, the invention relates to analogs of CC-1065 and the duocarmycins having antitumor antibiotic activity.
BACKGROUND
(+)-CC-1065 (1) and the duocarmycins 2-3 represent the initial members of a class of exceptionally potent antitumor antibiotics. Members of this class of antitumor antibiotic derive their biological effects through the reversible, stereoelectronically-controlled sequence selective alkylation of duplex DNA. (H.

J. Org. Chem.
1994, 59, 4943.)
Concurrent with the above structure/function studies, substantial efforts have been devoted to developing potential clinical candidates based on the natural product structures having enhanced in vivo efficacy. Compounds 4-8 are analogs of the natural product structures having enhanced in vivo efficacy with clinical potential. (D. L. Boger, et al.,

J. Natl. Cancer Inst.
1994, 86, 368.) Efforts have also focused on the development of analogs having decreased delayed toxicity as compared to the natural form of (+)-CC-1065. (J. P. McGovren, et al.,
Cancer Res.
1993, 53, 5690.) Importantly, this unusual property has not been observed with ent-(−)-CC-1065, although it is equally cytotoxic, and is not observed with the naturally-derived duocarmycins as well as simplified analogs of the natural products.
The first preparation and examination of agents containing the 1,2,9,9a-tetrahydrocyclopropa[c]benz[e]indol-4-one (CBI) alkylation subunit were described in connection with efforts to evaluate CC-1065 and duocarmycin analogs bearing deep-seated structural alterations in the alkylation subunit. (D. L. Boger, et al.,
J. Am. Chem. Soc.
1989, 111, 6461; and D. L. Boger, et al.,
J. Org. Chem.
1990, 55, 5823.) These agents were employed as tools to identify the structural features of compounds 1-3 associated with their sequence selective alkylation of duplex DNA and to define the fundamental relationships between structure, chemical or functional reactivity and biological properties.
Prior to the present invention, it had been assumed that the unique alkylating activity of the naturally occurring CPI subunit of CC-1065 would be degraded if this portion of the molecule were structurally altered. (L. H. Hurley, et al.,
