N-SUBSTITUTED INDENOISOQUINOLINES AND SYNTHESES THEREOF

摘要

N-Substituted indenoisoquinoline compounds, and pharmaceutical formulations of N-substituted indenoisoquinoline compounds are described. Also described are processes for preparing N-substituted indenoisoquinoline compounds. Also described are methods for treating cancer in mammals using the described N-substituted indenoisoquinoline compounds or pharmaceutical formulations thereof.

1. A pharmaceutical composition for treating cancer, the composition comprising:
(a) a compound of the formula and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrates, and solvates thereof, wherein: m is an integer from 0 to about 6; R6 is selected from the group consisting of haloalkyl, halocycloalkyl, hydroxy, alkoxy, cycloalkoxy, haloalkoxy, halocycloalkoxy, optionally substituted heteroaryl, aryloxy, heteroaryloxy, and heteroarylamino, acyloxy, haloacyloxy, amino, alkyl and dialkylamino, trialkylammonium, bis(hydroxyalkyl)amino, hydroxyalkylaminoalkylamino, heteroarylalkylaminoalkylamino, acylamino, hydroxylamino, alkoxylamino, acyloxylamino, cycloalkyl, heterocyclyl, heterocyclylamino, alkynyl, acyl, urethanyl, cyano, nitro, azido, thio, alkylsulfonyl, sulfonic acid and derivatives thereof, carboxylic acid and derivatives thereof, and phosphonic acid and derivatives thereof; provided that when R6 is hydroxy, alkylamino, or hydroxyalkylamino, m is the integer 0; Ra represents 1-4 substituents each of which is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halo, hydroxy, optionally substituted alkyl, optionally substituted alkoxy, cyano, nitro, optionally substituted alkylthio, optionally substituted alkylsulfonyl, carboxylic acid and derivatives thereof, and sulfonic acid and derivatives thereof; or Ra represents 2-4 substituents where 2 of said substituents are adjacent substituents and are taken together with the attached carbons to form an optionally substituted heterocycle, and where any remaining substituents are each independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halo, hydroxy, optionally substituted alkyl, optionally substituted alkoxy, cyano, nitro, optionally substituted alkylthio, optionally substituted alkylsulfonyl, carboxylic acid and derivatives thereof, and sulfonic acid and derivatives thereof; Rd represents 1-4 substituents each of which is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halo, hydroxy, optionally substituted alkyl, optionally substituted alkoxy, cyano, nitro, optionally substituted alkylthio, optionally substituted alkylsulfonyl, carboxylic acid and derivatives thereof, and sulfonic acid and derivatives thereof; or Rd represents 2-4 substituents where 2 of said substituents are adjacent substituents and are taken together with the attached carbons to form an optionally substituted heterocycle, and where any remaining substituents are each independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halo, hydroxy, optionally substituted alkyl, optionally substituted alkoxy, cyano, nitro, optionally substituted alkylthio, optionally substituted alkylsulfonyl, carboxylic acid and derivatives thereof, and sulfonic acid and derivatives thereof; and (b) one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers, diluents, and excipients therefor; where the compound is present in an amount effective for treating a cancer in a patient in need of relief.
