EP 2 475 429 B1 Printed by Jouve, 75001 PARIS (FR) EP 2 475 429 B1 Description Introduction 5 [0001] Ketone-containing opioids are susceptible to misuse, abuse, or overdose. Use of and access to these drugs therefore needs to be controlled. The control of access to the drugs is expensive to administer and can result in denial of treatment for patients that are not able to present themselves for dosing. For example, patients suffering from acute pain may be denied treatment with an opioid unless they have been admitted to a hospital. Furthermore, control of use is often ineffective, leading to substantial morbidity and deleterious social consequences. 10 Summary of the Invention [0002] A first aspect of the invention is a compound of the formula: 15 20 wherein: X represents a residue of a ketone-containing opioid, wherein the hydrogen atom of the corresponding enolic group 5 1 2 3 4 of the ketone is replaced by a covalent bond to -C(O)-NR -(C(R )(R ))n-NR R ; 25 R5 is selected from alkyl, substituted alkyl, arylalkyl, substituted arylalkyl, aryl and substituted aryl; each R1 is independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, aryl, substituted aryl, acyl, and aminoacyl; each R2 is independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, aryl, substituted aryl, acyl, and aminoacyl; or R1 and R2 together with the carbon to which they are attached form a cycloalkyl, substituted cycloalkyl, aryl, or substituted aryl group; 30 or two R1 and R2 groups on adjacent carbon atoms, together with the carbon atoms to which they are attached, form a cycloalkyl, substituted cycloalkyl, aryl, or substituted aryl group; n is an integer from 2 to 4; R3 is hydrogen; R4 is 35 40 each R6 is independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, aryl, substituted aryl, arylalkyl, substituted arylalkyl, heteroalkyl, substituted heteroalkyl, heteroaryl, substituted heteroaryl, heteroarylalkyl, and substituted heteroarylalkyl, or optionally, R6 and R7 together with the atoms to which they are bonded form a cycloheteroalkyl 45 or substituted cycloheteroalkyl ring; each W is independently -NR8-, -O- or -S-; each R8 is independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, aryl and substituted aryl, or optionally, each R 6 and R 8 independently together with the atoms to which they are bonded form a cycloheteroalkyl or substituted cycloheteroalkyl ring; 50 p is an integer from one to 100; and R7 is selected from hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, acyl, substituted acyl, alkoxycarbonyl, substituted alkoxycar- bonyl, aryl, substituted aryl, arylalkyl, and substituted arylalkyl; or a salt, hydrate or solvate thereof. 55 [0003] In one embodiment, the compound is a compound of the formula: 2 EP 2 475 429 B1 5 10 wherein: Ra is hydrogen or hydroxyl; 15 R5 is selected from alkyl, substituted alkyl, arylalkyl, substituted arylalkyl, aryl and substituted aryl; each R1 is independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, aryl, substituted aryl, acyl, and aminoacyl; each R2 is independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, aryl, substituted aryl, acyl, and aminoacyl; or R1 and R2 together with the carbon to which they are attached form a cycloalkyl, substituted cycloalkyl, aryl, or substituted aryl group; 20 or two R1 or R2 groups on adjacent carbon atoms, together with the carbon atoms to which they are attached, form a cycloalkyl, substituted cycloalkyl, aryl, or substituted aryl group; n is an integer from 2 to 4; R3 is hydrogen; R4 is 25 30 each R6 is independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, aryl, substituted aryl, arylalkyl, substituted arylalkyl, heteroalkyl, substituted heteroalkyl, heteroaryl, substituted heteroaryl, heteroarylalkyl, and substituted heteroarylalkyl, 35 or optionally, R6 and R7 together with the atoms to which they are bonded form a cycloheteroalkyl or substituted cycloheteroalkyl ring; each W is independently -NR8-, -O- or -S-; each R8 is independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, aryl and substituted aryl, or optionally, each R 6 and R 8 independently together with the atoms to which they are bonded form a cycloheteroalkyl 40 or substituted cycloheteroalkyl ring; p is an integer from one to 100; and R7 is selected from hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, acyl, substituted acyl, alkoxycarbonyl, substituted alkoxycar- bonyl, aryl, substituted aryl, arylalkyl, and substituted arylalkyl; or a salt, hydrate or solvate thereof. 45 [0004] In one embodiment, the compound is a compound of the formula: 50 wherein: 55 X represents a residue of a ketone-containing opioid, wherein the hydrogen atom of the corresponding enolic group 5 1 2 3 4 of the ketone is replaced by a covalent bond to -C(O)-NR -(C(R )(R ))n-NR R ; 5 R is selected from (1-6C)alkyl, (1-6C) substituted alkyl, -(CH2)q(C6H4)-COOH, -(CH2)q(C6H4)-COOCH3, and 3 EP 2 475 429 B1 -(CH2)q(C6H4)-COOCH2CH3, where q is an integer from one to 10; each R1 is independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, aryl, substituted aryl, acyl, and aminoacyl; each R2 is independently selected from hydrogen, alkyl, substituted alkyl, aryl, substituted aryl, acyl, and aminoacyl; or R1 and R2 together with the carbon to which they are attached form a cycloalkyl or substituted cycloalkyl group; 5 or two R1 or R2 groups on adjacent carbon atoms, together with the carbon atoms to which they are attached, form a cycloalkyl or substituted cycloalkyl group; n is 2 or 3; R3 is hydrogen; R4 is a residue of an L-amino acid selected from alanine, arginine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glycine, 10 glutamine, glutamic acid, histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, serine, threonine, tryptophan, tyrosine and valine, or a residue of an N-acyl derivative of any of said amino acids; or a residue of a peptide composed of at least two L-amino acid residues selected independently from alanine, arginine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glycine, glutamine, glutamic acid, histidine, isoleucine, leucine, lysine, methionine, pheny- lalanine, proline, serine, threonine, tryptophan, tyrosine and valine or a residue of an N-acyl derivative thereof;
