Abstract

Compound 1 (SKI-606, bosutinib), a 7-alkoxy-4-[(2,4-dichloro-5-methoxyphenyl)amino]-3-quinolinecarbonitrile, is a potent inhibitor of Src kinase activity. We previously reported that analogs of 1 with thiophene groups at C-7 retained the Src activity of the parent compound. The corresponding C-7 furan analogs were prepared and it was found that the 3,5-substituted furan analog had increased activity compared to that of the 2,5-substituted furan isomer. Addition of a methoxy group at C-6 decreased the Src inhibitory activity of the C-7 2,5-substituted furan analog but increased the activity of the C-7 3,5-substituted furan isomer. This compound, 10, was a more potent Src inhibitor than 1 in both enzymatic and cell-based assays. The kinase selectivity profile of 10 was similar to that of 1, with 10 also inhibiting the activity of Abl and Lck. When tested in a solid tumor xenograft model, 10 had comparable oral activity to that of 1.
