High affinity binders of nectin-4 for treating diseases
The granted patent (Publication Number: US11912792B2) discloses a method for synthesizing compound BCY8245. The method involves a series of steps starting from providing compounds with specific formulas, such as formula 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, and 1, and further reacting these compounds in a specific sequence to ultimately form the desired compound BCY8245 or its salt using solid-phase synthesis.
Additionally, the method includes specific reaction conditions and reagents for each step, such as reacting compound formula 8 with BCY8234 in the presence of N,N-diisopropylethylamine (DIEA), or reacting compound formula 7 with NHS in the presence of a carbodiimide like 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide (EDCI). The method also involves saponifying compound formula 6 with LiOH and H2O, reacting compound formula 5 with MMAE, and compound formula 4 with bis(4-nitrophenyl) carbonate, among other specific reactions. The hydrolyzing step is performed under acidic conditions to complete the synthesis process. Overall, the patent provides a detailed and specific method for synthesizing compound BCY8245, outlining the necessary compounds, reactions, and conditions required for the successful synthesis of the target compound.
