Fosdagrocorat, also known as PF-04171327, a dissociated agonist of the glucocorticoid receptor (DAGR), a selective high-affinity partial agonist of the GR with potent anti-inflammatory activity at exposures that provide less undesirable effects on bone and glucose metabolism compared with prednisone (pred).
Glucocorticoid receptor modulators are glucocorticoid receptor ligands that are used to treat a variety of conditions because of their powerful anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative and immunomodulatory activity. J. Miner, et al., Expert Opin. Investig. Drugs (2005) 14(12):1527-1545.
Examples of glucocorticoid receptor modulators include dexamethasone, prednisone, prednisolone, RU-486, and as described in WO 2000/66522 and WO 2004/005229.
Treatment with glucocorticoid receptor modulators is often associated with side effects, such as bone loss and osteoporosis.
Identifying a glucocorticoid receptor modulator that is efficacious, potent, and has mitigated side-effects fulfills a medical need.

Starting Material A-8 is 1(R)~Benzyl-5-bromo-9(S)-hydro-10(R)-hydroxy-10(R)-methyl-tricyclo[7.3.1.02'7]trideca-2,4,6-trien-13-one as depicted by the following formula:
Preparation 1 : (S)-4a-benzyl-7-bromo-2-ethoxy-3,4,4a,9-tetrahydrophenanthrene
Starting Material A-8 (450 g; 1.17 moles) was dissolved in ethanol (4.5 L) at ambient temperature. 21% sodium ethoxide in ethanol (44 mL; 0.12 moles) was added and the mixture was heated to reflux for three hours. Once the Starting Material A-8 was consumed, the reaction mixture was chilled to -250C. Acetyl chloride (250 mL; 3.51 moles) was slowly added to the mixture while the temperature was maintained near -25°C. After the addition was complete, the mixture was warmed to O0C and held there until the intermediate enone was consumed. The mixture was slurry at this point. 21 % sodium ethoxide in ethanol (1.31 L; 3.51 moles) was added to the mixture while the temperature was maintained between -5°C and 50C. If the mixture was not basic, more sodium ethoxide was added. The temperature of the mixture was increased to 25°C and then diluted with water (5.9 L). The mixture was filtered and the solid was washed with water (3 X). The title compound (440 g; 85 area %) was obtained as a beige solid. 1H NMR (DMSO) δ ppm: 1.27 (t, 3H), 1.65 (dt, 1 H), 2.06 (d, 1 H), 2.21 (dd, 1 H)1 2.49 (m, 1 H), 2.65 (m, 2H), 2.89 (m, 2H), 3.85 (q, 2H), 5.45 (m, 2H), 6.44 (d, 2H), 6.98 (t, 2H), 7.06 (m, 2H), 7.25 (d, 1 H), 7.33 (dd, 1 H).
Preparation 2: (S)-4a-benzyl-7-bromo-2,2-(1,2-ethylenedioxy)-1,2,3,4,4a,9-hexahydrophenanthrene
The (S)-4α-benzyl-7-bromo-2-ethoxy-3,4,4α,9-tetrahydrophenanthrene (1270 g; 3.2 moles; 85 area %, which may be prepared as described in Preparation 1 ) was dissolved in toluene (6.45 L). The ethylene glycol (898 mL; 16.1 moles) and p-toluenesulfonic acid (6.1 g; 0.03 moles) were added and the reaction heated to reflux. Solvent (1 L) was distilled from the mixture and replaced with fresh toluene (1 L). This distillation process was repeated twice more. More p-toluenesulfonic acid (6.1 g) was added each time fresh toluene was added. During the reaction, two intermediates (detected by LC) were formed as the substrate was converted into product. The end point of the reaction was an equilibrium point between the two intermediates and the product. Once the endpoint was reached, the mixture was cooled to ambient temperature. The mixture was washed with 0.5 M NaOH (2 L). The phases separated quickly and both were dark with a small rag layer. The mixture was washed with water (2 L). The phases
separated very slowly. The mixture was dried by azeotropic distillation. Methanol (4 L) was added to the mixture and solvent (4 L) was distilled from the mixture. The methanol addition and solvent distillation were repeated twice more. Methanol was added to the mixture and precipitation occurred a few minutes later. More methanol (4 L) was added to the mixture and then brought to reflux. After 30 minutes, the mixture was cooled to 00C. The mixture was filtered and the solid was washed with chilled methanol (2 X 2L). The solid was dried in a vacuum oven at 65°C. The title compound (882 g; 98 area %) was obtained as a beige solid. 1H NMR (DMSO) δ ppm: 1.71 (m, 2H), 2.06 (m, 2H), 2.31 (dd, 1 H), 2.39 (m, 1 H), 2.68 (d, 1 H), 2.77 (m, 1 H), 2.86 (dd, 1 H), 3.36 (d, 1 H), 3.86 (m, 4H), 5.45 (m, 1 H), 6.50 (m, 2H), 7.00 (m, 4H), 7.37 (dd, 1 H), 7.44 (d, 1 H).

The 1.6 M n-butyl lithium in hexane (2270 mL; 2.27 moles) was added at a rate such that the temperature was maintained below -6O0C. The mixture held an additional 15 minutes after the addition. Carbon dioxide (108 g; 2.45 moles) was added while the temperature was maintained below -60°C. The mixture held an additional 15 minutes after the addition. The mixture was warmed to ambient temperature. Solvent (7 L) was distilled from the mixture at atmospheric pressure. DMF (7 L) was added to the mixture. The mixture was cooled to ambient temperature. Methyl iodide (152 mL; 2.45 moles) was added and the mixture was held until the reaction was completed (~1 hour). The mixture was heated to 7O0C and solvent was distilled by gradually reducing the pressure to 70 mmHg. Once distillation had ceased, the mixture was cooled to room
temperature. Water (6.5 L) was slowly added to the mixture to precipitate the product. The mixture was filtered and the solid washed with water (3 X). The solid was dried on the filter. The crude product (736 g; 74 area %) was obtained as a beige solid. The product was purified by chromatography. 463 g of product was recovered from the chromatography.

The dibenzyl (2R,4αS, 10αR)-4α-bθnzyl-7-((2-methylpyridin-3-yl)carbamoyl)-2-(trifluoromethyl)-1 ,2,3,4,4a,9,10,10a-octahydrophenanthren-2-yl phosphate (6 g; 7.9 mmol, which may be prepared as described in Preparation 8) was dissolved in methanol (120 ml_). 5% palladium on carbon (63% water) (1.3 g; 0.4 mmol) was added to the mixture. The mixture was treated with hydrogen (50 psi) at room temperature. The reaction stalled with 12% of the monobenzylic intermediate remaining. The mixture was filtered through a pad of Celite®. Fresh catalyst (1.3 g) was added to the solution and resubmitted to the hydrogenation conditions. Once the reaction was completed, the mixture was filtered through a pad of Celite®. The solution was concentrated to about 60 ml_ by distillation and not by using a rotary evaporator. During the distillation a white solid precipitated. The mixture was cooled to ambient temperature. The mixture was filtered and the solid washed with methanol. The solid was dried in a vacuum oven at 700C. The compound of the present example (3.36 g; 75% yield) was obtained as a white solid and had an LC purity of 98 area %. 1H NMR (DMSO): δ 1.33 (t, 1 H)1 1.69-1.98 (m, 3H), 2.07-2.29 (m, 3H)1 2.42 (s, 3H), 2.61-2.80 (m, 2H)1 2.93-3.19 (m, 3H)1 3.30 (d, 1 H), 6.50 (d, 1 H), 6.64 (m, 2H), 7.08-7.20 (m, 3H), 7.29 (dd, 1 H), 7.48 (dd, 1 H), 7.75 (dd, 2H), 8.33 (dd, 1 H), 9.96 (s, 1 H).

Example 1 : (4βS,7/?,8α/?)-4β-benzyl-7-hydroxy-N-(2-methylpyridin-3-yl)-7- (trifluoromethyl)-4β,5,6,7,8,8α,9,10-octahydrophenanthrene-2-carboxamide
The (4βS,7R,8α/?)-methyl 4β-benzyl-7-hydroxy-7-(trifluoromethyl)-4β,5,6J7,8,δα,9, 10- octahydrophenanthrene-2-carboxylate (10 g; 23.9 mmol, which may be prepared as described in Preparation 6), and 3-amino-2-picoline (2.71 g; 25.1 mmol) were dissolved in toluene (200 ml_). The 1 M lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)amide in tetrahydrofuran (74.1 ml_; 74.1 mmol) was added at a rate such that the temperature was maintained below 350C. There was a mild exotherm and a solid precipitated during the addition. The mixture was held an additional 30 minutes after the addition. Water (250 ml_) was added to the mixture. There was a mild exotherm and the solid dissolved. Ethyl acetate (50 ml_) was added to the mixture to ensure the product did not precipitate. Stirring was stopped to allow the phases to separate. The aqueous phase was removed. The organic phase was washed with water (250 ml_). Solvent (230 ml_) was distilled at atmospheric pressure from the organic phase. The mixture was cooled to ambient temperature. The mixture was filtered and the solid was washed with toluene (2 times) followed by heptane (2 times). The solid was dried in a vacuum oven at 700C. The title compound of the present example (10 g) was obtained as a beige solid. 1H NMR (DMSO) δ ppm: 1.32 (m, 1H), 1.82 (m, 4H), 2.10 (m, 4H), 2.41 (s, 3H), 2.68 (d, 1 H), 3.08 (m, 3H), 6.00 (s, 1 H), 6.43 (d, 1 H), 6.59 (m, 2H), 7.12 (m, 3H), 7.25 (dd, 1 H), 7.44 (dd, 1 H), 7.71 (dd, 1 H), 7.75 (d, 1 H), 8.31 (dd, 1 H), 9.91 (s, 1 H).
