Description:
POLYCYCLIC CAP-DEPENDENT ENDONUCLEASE INHIBITORS FOR TREATING OR PREVENTING INFLUENZA BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Influenza viruses, members of the Orthomyxoviridae family, are categorized by type: Influenza A, B, C or D. Seasonal epidemic disease caused by Influenza A and Influenza B, which co-circulate throughout the world, is the biggest concern for human public health. Influenza A viruses are characterized by the combination of surface proteins, hemagglutinin (HA, H) and neuraminidase (NA, N), present on the virion. Both H1N1 and H3N2 viruses are capable of infecting and causing disease in humans. Influenza B viruses fall into one of two lineages, Victoria-like or Yamagata-like, both of which cause human disease. Influenza A and B virus particles consist of a cell-derived lipid membrane lined with the viral M1 matrix protein. This envelope encompasses 8 segments of negative strand RNA genome, each encoding one or more viral proteins. Surface-exposed hemagglutinin, M2 and neuraminidase proteins mediate host cell entry, uncoating and release of nascent virus particles from infected cells, respectively. The segmented genome is packaged as a ribonucleoprotein complex made up of nucleoprotein-coated RNA associated with the heterotrimeric polymerase. The polymerase, made up of PA, PB1 and PB2 subunits, is critical for both viral genome replication and mRNA transcription. The PB1 subunit harbors the polymerase active site, while the PB2 and PA subunits, in addition to their role in genome replication, work together to capture (PB2) and remove the cap (PA) from host cell pre-mRNAs, facilitating transcription of viral mRNA. Seasonal influenza is a respiratory disease characterized by sudden onset fever, cough, sore throat, headache, myalgia, and malaise. Symptoms range from mild to severe and may lead to death of the infected person. Worldwide, 3 – 5 million people each year suffer from severe influenza disease and approximately 0.5 million die. Those who are immune- compromised, including the very young and those over the age of 65, are at highest risk for influenza-related morbidity and mortality. Vaccines for prevention of influenza disease are available; however, the effectiveness of such vaccines varies from year to year with an estimated pooled effectiveness of 59% for healthy adults (Osterholm et al, CIDRAP report (2012)). Influenza virus strains capable of escaping host immunity are selectively transmitted; thus, to provide protection against currently circulating virus, seasonal influenza vaccines must be reformulated and readministered annually. Vaccines that provide durable, multi-season or broad-spectrum protection, are not currently available. Several small molecules targeting influenza virus have been approved for therapeutic and/or limited prophylactic use in one or more countries, including M2 ion channel inhibitors, NA inhibitors, a nucleoside analog and a recently approved inhibitor targeting the endonuclease activity of the PA protein. As therapy, small molecule inhibitors of influenza must be administered within 48 hours of symptom onset to be effective, and shorten the duration of virus shedding and respiratory symptoms. Currently circulating influenza virus strains are resistant to approved M2 inhibitors, such that use of M2 inhibitors is no longer recommended. The purine analog favipiravir is approved for use only in Japan, and safety concerns restrict its use. In the past, increasing levels of circulating drug-resistant virus variants had limited the effectiveness of several neuraminidase inhibitors; however, since the 2009 H1N1 pandemic, the level of drug resistance has been low. Resistance to the cap-dependent endonuclease inhibitor baloxavir marboxil was high in late stage clinical trials wherein virus harboring a mutation at amino acid 38 of the PA protein was isolated from 9.7% of adult and 23.4 % of pediatric trial participants (Hayden et al, N Engl J Med., 379(10):913-923 (2018); Hirotsu et al, Clin Infect Dis., ciz908 (2019)). Whether these mutant viruses, which significantly reduce the in vitro antiviral potency, can efficiently transmit from human to human is not known (Omoto et al, Sci Rep., 8(1):9633 (2018); Noshi et al, Antiviral Res., 160:109‐117 (2018)). Currently, there are limited options for the treatment and prevention of influenza disease and significant concerns about drug resistance with approved therapies. Furthermore, the inability of seasonal vaccines to provide consistent, robust, durable, broad spectrum protection against influenza disease, combined with the threat of emergence of novel zoonotic influenza viruses with pandemic potential, necessitate continued development of both prophylactic and therapeutic agents targeting the influenza virus. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to compounds of Formula I:

and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The compounds of Formula I are cap-dependent endonuclease inhibitors, and as such may be useful in the treatment, inhibition or amelioration of one or more disease states that could benefit from inhibition of a virus having a cap-dependent endonuclease, including influenza.

Also included within the scope of the present invention is a pharmaceutical composition which is comprised of a compound of Formula I as described above and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. The invention is also contemplated to encompass a pharmaceutical composition which is comprised of a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and any of the compounds specifically disclosed in the present application. These and other aspects of the invention will be apparent from the teachings contained herein. The invention also includes compositions for inhibiting cap-dependent endonuclease in a virus, treating a disease caused by a virus having a cap-dependent endonuclease, treating influenza and preventing influenza, in a mammal, comprising a compound of the invention in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. These compositions may optionally include other antiviral agents. The compositions can be added to blood, blood products, or mammalian organs in order to affect the desired inhibitions. The compounds of the present invention may be administered in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. The term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refers to salts prepared from pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic bases or acids including inorganic or organic bases and inorganic or organic acids. Salts of basic compounds encompassed within the term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" refer to non-toxic salts of the compounds of this invention which are generally prepared by reacting the free base with a suitable organic or inorganic acid. Representative salts of basic compounds of the present invention include, but are not limited to, the following: acetate, ascorbate, adipate, alginate, aspirate, benzenesulfonate, benzoate, bicarbonate, bisulfate, bitartrate, borate, bromide, butyrate, camphorate, camphorsulfonate, camsylate, carbonate, chloride, clavulanate, citrate, cyclopentane propionate, diethylacetic, digluconate, dihydrochloride, dodecylsulfanate, edetate, edisylate, estolate, esylate, ethanesulfonate, formic, fumarate, gluceptate, glucoheptanoate, gluconate, glutamate, glycerophosphate, glycollylarsanilate, hemisulfate, heptanoate, hexanoate, hexylresorcinate, hydrabamine, hydrobromide, hydrochloride, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonate, hydroxynaphthoate, iodide, isonicotinic, isothionate, lactate, lactobionate, laurate, malate, maleate, mandelate, mesylate, methylbromide, methylnitrate, methylsulfate, methanesulfonate, mucate, 2- naphthalenesulfonate, napsylate, nicotinate, nitrate, N-methylglucamine ammonium salt, oleate, oxalate, pamoate (embonate), palmitate, pantothenate, pectinate, persulfate, phosphate/diphosphate, pimelic, phenylpropionic, polygalacturonate, propionate, salicylate, stearate, sulfate, subacetate, succinate, tannate, tartrate, teoclate, thiocyanate, tosylate, triethiodide, trifluoroacetate, undeconate, valerate and the like. Furthermore, where the compounds of the invention carry an acidic moiety, suitable pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof include, but are not limited to, salts derived from inorganic bases including aluminum, ammonium, calcium, copper, ferric, ferrous, lithium, magnesium, manganic, mangamous, potassium, sodium, zinc, and the like. Also included are the ammonium, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and sodium salts. Salts derived from pharmaceutically acceptable organic non-toxic bases include salts of primary, secondary, and tertiary amines, cyclic amines, dicyclohexyl amines and basic ion-exchange resins, such as arginine, betaine, caffeine, choline, N,N- dibenzylethylenediamine, diethylamine, 2-diethylaminoethanol, 2-dimethylaminoethanol, ethanolamine, ethylamine, ethylenediamine, N-ethylmorpholine, N-ethylpiperidine, glucamine, glucosamine, histidine, hydrabamine, isopropylamine, lysine, methylglucamine, morpholine, piperazine, piperidine, polyamine resins, procaine, purines, theobromine, triethylamine, trimethylamine, tripropylamine, tromethamine, and the like. Also, included are the basic nitrogen-containing groups that may be quaternized with such agents as lower alkyl halides, such as methyl, ethyl, propyl, and butyl chloride, bromides and iodides; dialkyl sulfates like dimethyl, diethyl, dibutyl; and diamyl sulfates, long chain halides such as decyl, lauryl, myristyl and stearyl chlorides, bromides and iodides, aralkyl halides like benzyl and phenethyl bromides and others. These salts can be obtained by known methods, for example, by mixing a compound of the present invention with an equivalent amount and a solution containing a desired acid, base, or the like, and then collecting the desired salt by filtering the salt or distilling off the solvent. The compounds of the present invention and salts thereof may form solvates with a solvent such as water, ethanol, or glycerol. The compounds of the present invention may form an acid addition salt and a salt with a base at the same time according to the type of substituent of the side chain. If the compounds of Formula I simultaneously contain acidic and basic groups in the molecule the invention also includes, in addition to the salt forms mentioned, inner salts or betaines (zwitterions). The present invention encompasses all stereoisomeric forms of the compounds of Formula I. Unless a specific stereochemistry is indicated, the present invention is meant to comprehend all such isomeric forms of these compounds. Centers of asymmetry that are present in the compounds of Formula I can all independently of one another have (R) configuration or (S) configuration. When bonds to the chiral carbon are depicted as straight lines in the structural Formulas of the invention, it is understood that both the (R) and (S) configurations of the chiral carbon, and hence both each individual enantiomer and mixtures thereof, are embraced within the Formula. When a particular configuration is depicted, that entantiomer (either (R) or (S), at that center) is intended. Similarly, when a compound name is recited without a chiral designation for a chiral carbon, it is understood that both the (R) and (S) configurations of the chiral carbon, and hence individual enantiomers and mixtures thereof, are embraced by the name. The production of specific stereoisomers or mixtures thereof may be identified in the Examples where such stereoisomers or mixtures were obtained, but this in no way limits the inclusion of all stereoisomers and mixtures thereof from being within the scope of this invention. Unless a specific enantiomer or diastereomer is indicated, the invention includes all possible enantiomers and diastereomers and mixtures of two or more stereoisomers, for example mixtures of enantiomers and/or diastereomers, in all ratios. Thus, enantiomers are a subject of the invention in enantiomerically pure form, both as levorotatory and as dextrorotatory antipodes, in the form of racemates and in the form of mixtures of the two enantiomers in all ratios. In the case of a cis/trans isomerism the invention includes both the cis form and the transform as well as mixtures of these forms in all ratios. The preparation of individual stereoisomers can be carried out, if desired, by separation of a mixture by customary methods, for example by chromatography or crystallization, by the use of stereochemically uniform starting materials for the synthesis or by stereoselective synthesis. Optionally a derivatization can be carried out before a separation of stereoisomers. The separation of a mixture of stereoisomers can be carried out at an intermediate step during the synthesis of a compound of Formula I or it can be done on a final racemic product. Absolute stereochemistry may be determined by X-ray crystallography of crystalline products or crystalline intermediates which are derivatized, if necessary, with a reagent containing a stereogenic center of known configuration. Where compounds of this invention are capable of tautomerization, all individual tautomers as well as mixtures thereof are included in the scope of this invention. The present invention includes all such isomers, as well as salts, solvates (including hydrates) and solvated salts of such racemates, enantiomers, diastereomers and tautomers and mixtures thereof. In the compounds of the invention, the atoms may exhibit their natural isotopic abundances, or one or more of the atoms may be artificially enriched in a particular isotope having the same atomic number, but an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number predominantly found in nature. The present invention is meant to include all suitable isotopic variations of the specifically and generically described compounds. For example, different isotopic forms of hydrogen (H) include protium (1H) and deuterium (2H). Protium is the predominant hydrogen isotope found in nature. Enriching for deuterium may afford certain therapeutic advantages, such as increasing in vivo half-life or reducing dosage requirements, or may provide a compound useful as a standard for characterization of biological samples. Isotopically-enriched compounds can be prepared without undue experimentation by conventional techniques well known to those skilled in the art or by processes analogous to those described in the general process schemes and examples herein using appropriate isotopically- enriched reagents and/or intermediates. When any variable occurs more than one time in any constituent, its definition on each occurrence is independent at every other occurrence. Also, combinations of substituents and variables are permissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds. Lines drawn into the ring systems from substituents represent that the indicated bond may be attached to any of the substitutable ring atoms. If the ring system is bicyclic, it is intended that the bond be attached to any of the suitable atoms on either ring of the bicyclic moiety. It is understood that one or more silicon (Si) atoms can be incorporated into the compounds of the instant invention in place of one or more carbon atoms by one of ordinary skill in the art to provide compounds that are chemically stable and that can be readily synthesized by techniques known in the art from readily available starting materials. Carbon and silicon differ in their covalent radius leading to differences in bond distance and the steric arrangement when comparing analogous C-element and Si-element bonds. These differences lead to subtle changes in the size and shape of silicon-containing compounds when compared to carbon. One of ordinary skill in the art would understand that size and shape differences can lead to subtle or dramatic changes in potency, solubility, lack of off-target activity, packaging properties, and so on. (Diass, J. O. et al. Organometallics (2006) 5:1188-1198; Showell, G.A. et al. Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters (2006) 16:2555-2558). It is understood that substituents and substitution patterns on the compounds of the instant invention can be selected by one of ordinary skill in the art to provide compounds that are chemically stable and that can be readily synthesized by techniques known in the art, as well as those methods set forth below, from readily available starting materials. If a substituent is itself substituted with more than one group, it is understood that these multiple groups may be on the same carbon or on different carbons, so long as a stable structure results. The phrase “optionally substituted” (with one or more substituents) should be understood as meaning that the group in question is either unsubstituted or may be substituted with one or more substituents. Furthermore, compounds of the present invention may exist in amorphous form and/or one or more crystalline forms, and as such all amorphous and crystalline forms and mixtures thereof of the compounds of Formula I are intended to be included within the scope of the present invention. In addition, some of the compounds of the instant invention may form solvates with water (i.e., a hydrate) or common organic solvents. Such solvates and hydrates, particularly the pharmaceutically acceptable solvates and hydrates, of the instant compounds are likewise encompassed within the scope of this invention, along with un-solvated and anhydrous forms. Also, in the case of a carboxylic acid (-COOH) or alcohol group being present in the compounds of the present invention, pharmaceutically acceptable esters of carboxylic acid derivatives, such as methyl, ethyl, or pivaloyloxymethyl, or acyl derivatives of alcohols, such as O-acetyl, O-pivaloyl, O-benzoyl, and O-aminoacyl, can be employed. Included are those esters and acyl groups known in the art for modifying the solubility or hydrolysis characteristics for use as sustained-release or prodrug formulations. Any pharmaceutically acceptable pro-drug modification of a compound of this invention which results in conversion in vivo to a compound within the scope of this invention is also within the scope of this invention. For example, esters can optionally be made by esterification of an available carboxylic acid group or by formation of an ester on an available hydroxy group in a compound. Similarly, labile amides can be made. Pharmaceutically acceptable esters or amides of the compounds of this invention may be prepared to act as pro- drugs which can be hydrolyzed back to an acid (or -COO- depending on the pH of the fluid or tissue where conversion takes place) or hydroxy form particularly in vivo and as such are encompassed within the scope of this invention. Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable pro- drug modifications include, but are not limited to, -C 1-6 alkyl esters and –C 1-6 alkyl substituted with phenyl esters. Accordingly, the compounds within the generic structural formulas, embodiments and specific compounds described and claimed herein encompass salts, all possible stereoisomers and tautomers, physical forms (e.g., amorphous and crystalline forms), solvate and hydrate forms thereof and any combination of these forms, as well as the salts thereof, pro-drug forms thereof, and salts of pro-drug forms thereof, where such forms are possible unless specified otherwise. The terms used herein have their ordinary meaning and the meaning of such terms is independent at each occurrence thereof. That notwithstanding and except where stated otherwise, the following definitions apply throughout the specification and claims. Chemical names, common names, and chemical structures may be used interchangeably to describe the same structure.

The term “substituted” means that one or more hydrogens on the designated atom is replaced with a selection from the indicated group, provided that the designated atom’s normal valency under the existing circumstances is not exceeded, and that the substitution results in a stable compound. Combinations of substituents and/or variables are permissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds. By “stable compound’ or “stable structure” is meant a compound that is sufficiently robust to survive isolation to a useful degree of purity from a reaction mixture, and formulation into an efficacious therapeutic agent. The term "in substantially purified form,” as used herein, refers to the physical state of a compound after the compound is isolated from a synthetic process (e.g., from a reaction mixture), a natural source, or a combination thereof. The term "in substantially purified form,” also refers to the physical state of a compound after the compound is obtained from a purification process or processes described herein or well-known to the skilled artisan (e.g., chromatography, recrystallization and the like), in sufficient purity to be characterizable by standard analytical techniques described herein or well-known to the skilled artisan. It should also be noted that any carbon as well as heteroatom with unsatisfied valences in the text, schemes, examples and tables herein is assumed to have the sufficient number of hydrogen atom(s) to satisfy the valences. When a functional group in a compound is termed “protected”, this means that the group is in modified form to preclude undesired side reactions at the protected site when the compound is subjected to a reaction. Suitable protecting groups will be recognized by those with ordinary skill in the art as well as by reference to standard textbooks such as, for example, T. W. Greene et al, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis (1991), Wiley, New York. When any substituent or variable (e.g., R x ) occurs more than one time in any constituent or in Formula I, its definition on each occurrence is independent of its definition at every other occurrence, unless otherwise indicated. As used herein, the term “composition” is intended to encompass a product comprising the specified ingredients in the specified amounts, as well as any product which results from combination of the specified ingredients in the specified amounts. The invention also relates to medicaments containing at least one compound of the Formula I and/or of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound of the Formula I and/or an optionally stereoisomeric form of the compound of the Formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the stereoisomeric form of the compound of Formula I, together with a pharmaceutically suitable and pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle, additive and/or other active substances and auxiliaries. The term “patient” used herein is taken to mean mammals such as primates, humans, sheep, horses, cattle, pigs, dogs, cats, rats, and mice. The term “influenza” includes seasonal influenza, pandemic influenza, avian influenza, swine influenza and influenza disease in humans or animals. Seasonal influenza is caused by Influenza A and/or Influenza B viruses. The medicaments according to the invention can be administered by oral, inhalative, rectal or transdermal administration or by subcutaneous, intraarticular, intraperitoneal or intravenous injection. Oral administration is preferred. Coating of stents with compounds of the Formula (I) and other surfaces which come into contact with blood in the body is possible. The invention also relates to a process for the production of a medicament, which comprises bringing at least one compound of the Formula (I) into a suitable administration form using a pharmaceutically suitable and pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and optionally further suitable active substances, additives or auxiliaries. Suitable solid or galenical preparation forms are, for example, granules, powders, coated tablets, tablets, (micro)capsules, suppositories, syrups, juices, suspensions, emulsions, drops or injectable solutions and preparations having prolonged release of active substance, in whose preparation customary excipients such as vehicles, disintegrants, binders, coating agents, swelling agents, glidants or lubricants, flavorings, sweeteners and solubilizers are used. Frequently used auxiliaries which may be mentioned are magnesium carbonate, titanium dioxide, lactose, mannitol and other sugars, talc, lactose, gelatin, starch, cellulose and its derivatives, animal and plant oils such as cod liver oil, sunflower, peanut or sesame oil, polyethylene glycol and solvents such as, for example, sterile water and mono- or polyhydric alcohols such as glycerol. The dosage regimen utilizing the cap-dependent endonuclease inhibitors of the instant invention is selected in accordance with a variety of factors including type, species, age, weight, sex and medical condition of the patient; the severity of the condition to be treated; the route of administration; the renal and hepatic function of the patient; and the particular compound or salt thereof employed. An ordinarily skilled physician or veterinarian can readily determine and prescribe the effective amount of the drug required to prevent, counter, or arrest the progress of the condition. Oral dosages of the cap-dependent endonuclease inhibitors, when used for the indicated effects, will range between about 0.01 mg per kg of body weight per day (mg/kg/day) to about 30 mg/kg/day, preferably 0.025-7.5 mg/kg/day, more preferably 0.1-2.5 mg/kg/day, and most preferably 0.1-0.5 mg/kg/day (unless specified otherwise, amounts of active ingredients are on free base basis). For example, an 80 kg patient would receive between about 0.8 mg/day and 2.4 g/day, preferably 2-600 mg/day, more preferably 8-200 mg/day, and most preferably 8-40 mg/kg/day. A suitably prepared medicament for once a day administration would thus contain between 0.8 mg and 2.4 g, preferably between 2 mg and 600 mg, more preferably between 8 mg and 200 mg, and most preferably 8 mg and 40 mg, e.g., 8 mg, 10 mg, 20 mg and 40 mg. Advantageously, the cap-dependent endonuclease inhibitors may be administered in divided doses of two, three, or four times daily. For administration twice a day, a suitably prepared medicament would contain between 0.4 mg and 4 g, preferably between 1 mg and 300 mg, more preferably between 4 mg and 100 mg, and most preferably 4 mg and 20 mg, e.g., 4 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg and 20 mg. Intravenously, the patient would receive the active ingredient in quantities sufficient to deliver between 0.025-7.5 mg/kg/day, preferably 0.1-2.5 mg/kg/day, and more preferably 0.1-0.5 mg/kg/day. Such quantities may be administered in a number of suitable ways, e.g. large volumes of low concentrations of active ingredient during one extended period of time or several times a day, low volumes of high concentrations of active ingredient during a short period of time, e.g. once a day. Typically, a conventional intravenous formulation may be prepared which contains a concentration of active ingredient of between about 0.01-1.0 mg/mL, e.g.0.1 mg/mL, 0.3 mg/mL, and 0.6 mg/mL, and administered in amounts per day of between 0.01 mL/kg patient weight and 10.0 mL/kg patient weight, e.g.0.1 mL/kg, 0.2 mL/kg, 0.5 mL/kg. In one example, an 80 kg patient, receiving 8 mL twice a day of an intravenous formulation having a concentration of active ingredient of 0.5 mg/mL, receives 8 mg of active ingredient per day. Glucuronic acid, L-lactic acid, acetic acid, citric acid or any pharmaceutically acceptable acid/conjugate base with reasonable buffering capacity in the pH range acceptable for intravenous administration may be used as buffers. The choice of appropriate buffer and pH of a formulation, depending on solubility of the drug to be administered, is readily made by a person having ordinary skill in the art. Compounds of Formula I can be administered both as a monotherapy and in combination with other therapeutic agents, including other antivirals or treatments of influenza. The cap-dependent endonuclease inhibitors can also be co-administered with suitable antivirals, including, but not limited to, M2 ion channel inhibitors, neuraminidase inhibitors, nucleoside analogs and inhibitors targeting the endonuclease activity of the PA protein. Alternatively or additionally, one or more additional pharmacologically active agents may be administered in combination with a compound of the invention. The additional active agent (or agents) is intended to mean a pharmaceutically active agent (or agents) that is active in the body, including pro-drugs that convert to pharmaceutically active form after administration, which is different from the compound of the invention, and also includes free- acid, free-base and pharmaceutically acceptable salts of said additional active agents when such forms are sold commercially or are otherwise chemically possible. Generally, any suitable additional active agent or agents, including but not limited to M2 ion channel inhibitors, neuraminidase inhibitors, nucleoside analogs and inhibitors targeting the endonuclease activity of the PA protein may be used in any combination with the compound of the invention in a single dosage formulation (a fixed dose drug combination), or may be administered to the patient in one or more separate dosage formulations which allows for concurrent or sequential administration of the active agents (co-administration of the separate active agents). Typical doses of the cap-dependent endonuclease inhibitors of the invention in combination with other suitable M2 ion channel inhibitors, neuraminidase inhibitors, nucleoside analogs and inhibitors targeting the endonuclease activity of the PA protein may be the same as those doses of the cap-dependent endonuclease inhibitors administered without coadministration of additional M2 ion channel inhibitors, neuraminidase inhibitors, nucleoside analogs and inhibitors targeting the endonuclease activity of the PA protein, or may be substantially less that those doses of thrombin inhibitors administered without coadministration of M2 ion channel inhibitors, neuraminidase inhibitors, nucleoside analogs and inhibitors targeting the endonuclease activity of the PA protein, depending on a patient’s therapeutic needs. The compounds are administered to a mammal in a therapeutically effective amount. By “therapeutically effective amount” it is meant an amount of a compound of the present invention that, when administered alone or in combination with an additional therapeutic agent to a mammal, is effective to treat (i.e., prevent, inhibit or ameliorate) the viral condition or treat the progression of the disease in a host. The compounds of the invention are preferably administered alone to a mammal in a therapeutically effective amount. However, the compounds of the invention can also be administered in combination with an additional therapeutic agent, as defined below, to a mammal in a therapeutically effective amount. When administered in a combination, the combination of compounds is preferably, but not necessarily, a synergistic combination. Synergy, as described for example by Chou and Talalay, Adv. Enzyme Regul.1984, 22, 27-55, occurs when the effect (in this case, inhibition of the desired target) of the compounds when administered in combination is greater than the additive effect of each of the compounds when administered individually as a single agent. In general, a synergistic effect is most clearly demonstrated at suboptimal concentrations of the compounds. Synergy can be in terms of lower cytotoxicity, increased anticoagulant effect, or some other beneficial effect of the combination compared with the individual components. By “administered in combination” or “combination therapy” it is meant that the compound of the present invention and one or more additional therapeutic agents are administered concurrently to the mammal being treated. When administered in combination each component may be administered at the same time or sequentially in any order at different points in time. Thus, each component may be administered separately but sufficiently closely in time so as to provide the desired therapeutic effect. The present invention is not limited in scope by the specific embodiments disclosed in the examples which are intended as illustrations of a few aspects of the invention and any embodiments that are functionally equivalent are within the scope of this invention. Indeed, various modifications of the invention in addition to those shown and described herein will become apparent to those skilled in the relevant art and are intended to fall within the scope of the appended claims. GENERAL METHODS Several methods for preparing the compounds of this invention are illustrated in the following Schemes and Examples. Starting materials and the requisite intermediates are in some cases commercially available, or can be prepared according to literature procedures or as illustrated herein. The compounds of this invention may be prepared by employing reactions as shown in the following schemes, in addition to other standard manipulations that are known in the literature or exemplified in the experimental procedures. Substituent numbering as shown in the schemes does not necessarily correlate to that used in the claims and often, for clarity, a single substituent is shown attached to the compound where multiple substituents are allowed under the definitions hereinabove. Reactions used to generate the compounds of this invention are carried out by employing reactions as shown in the schemes and examples herein, in addition to other standard manipulations such as ester hydrolysis, cleavage of protecting groups, etc., as may be known in the literature or exemplified in the experimental procedures. Starting materials are made according to procedures known in the art or as illustrated herein. The compounds of the present invention can be prepared in a variety of fashions. In some cases, the final product may be further modified, for example, by manipulation of substituents. These manipulations may include, but are not limited to, reduction, oxidation, alkylation, acylation, and hydrolysis reactions which are commonly known to those skilled in the art. In some cases, the order of carrying out the foregoing reaction schemes may be varied to facilitate the reaction or to avoid unwanted reaction products. Because the schemes are an illustration, the invention should not be construed as being limited by the chemical reactions and conditions expressed. The preparation of the various starting materials used herein is well within the skill of a person versed in the art. The following examples are provided so that the invention might be more fully understood. These examples are illustrative only and should not be construed as limiting the invention in any way. Absolute stereochemistry of separate stereoisomers in the examples and intermediates are not determined unless stated otherwise in an example or explicitly in the nomenclature. When chiral resolution was achieved by chromatography using chiral columns, the chiral columns used for SFC chiral resolutions are listed in tables. Some of the chiral columns used were CHIRALPAK AD, CHIRALCEL OJ, CHIRALPAK AS, CHIRALPAK AY, CHIRALPAK IA, CHIRALPAK AD-H, and CHIRALPAK AS-H. Henceforth, they will be referred by their two or three letter abbreviations. As a convention, the fast-eluting isomer from a chiral resolution is always listed first in this table followed immediately by the slower-eluting isomer from the same resolution. If more than two isomers were separated, they will be always listed in the tables in order they were eluted, such as Peak 1 followed by Peak 2, Peak 3 and so on. Catalysts are used in the following procedures. “Grubbs II” is also known as “Grubbs catalyst 2 nd generation” and (1,3-Bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)-2- imidazolidinylidene)dichloro(phenylmethylene)(tricyclohexylp hosphine)ruthenium; Carbonyltris(triphenylphosphine)rhodium(I) hydride; Wilkinson’s catalyst is also known as chloridotris(triphenylphosphine)rhodium(I); all of which are available from Millipore Sigma. GENERAL SCHEME Methods for Making the Compounds of Formula (I) The Compounds of Formula (I) may be prepared from known or readily prepared starting materials, following methods known to one skilled in the art of organic synthesis. Methods useful for making the Compounds of Formula (I) are set forth in the Examples below and generalized in Schemes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 below. Alternative synthetic pathways and analogous structures will be apparent to those skilled in the art of organic synthesis. Scheme 1 Diol iii was prepared from multiple-steps syntheses, either from commercially available i, aldehyde iv or ketone vii. It was then oxidized via Dess-Martin periodinane to provide aldehyde ix. The aldehyde may be reacted with a compound of formula x to provide a compound of formula xi. Direct reduction of compound xi followed by cyclization affords a compound of formula xiii. Alternatively, protection of compound xi followed by a two-step sequence also allows the formation of a compound of formula xiii. Chiral resolution to separate the diastereomers of a compound of formula xiii, followed by deprotection provides a compound of formula xiiii which correspond to the compounds of formula (I). The hydrazone compound of formula ii may be formed by condensation of a compound of formula i and an appropriate ketone or aldehyde which, in turn, may subsequently be reacted with an organometallic reagent to provide a compound of formula iii. Hydroformylation of the compound of formula iii followed by cyclization to provide a compound of formula v. Chiral resolution to separate the diastereomers of a compound of formula v, followed by deprotection provides compound of formula vi which correspond to the compounds of formula (I). A compound of formula iii may be made following essentially the method employed in Scheme 2. Two-, three- or four-carbon extensions of compound iii through cross- metathesis provides a compound of formula iv. Sequentially reduction and oxidation of compound iv affords aldehyde compound of formula v which allows further cyclization to provide compound vi. Chiral resolution to separate the diastereomers of a compound of formula vi, followed by deprotection provides a compound of formula vii which correspond to the compounds of formula (I). Scheme 4 A compound of formula iii may be made following essentially the method employed in Scheme 2. It was then reacted with the corresponding aldehyde to form aminal iv which allows ring-closing metathesis to provide a compound of formula v. Reduction of the carbon-carbon double bond and subsequent chiral resolution to separate the diastereomers followed by deprotection provides a compound of formula vi which corresponds to the compounds of formula (I). Scheme 5 A compound of formula iii may be made following essentially the method employed in Scheme 2. It was then reacted with the corresponding organometallic reagent to form aminal iv which allows oxidation to provide compound of formula v. Cyclization and subsequent chiral resolution to separate the diastereomers followed by deprotection provides a compound of formula vii which correspond to the compounds of formula (I). A compound of formula xiii described in Scheme 1 may be made from a compound of formula xi through reductive cyclization. Chiral resolution to separate the diastereomers of a compound of formula xiii, followed by deprotection provides compound of formula xiiii which corresponds to the compounds of formula (I). In the methods for preparing compounds of the present invention set forth in the foregoing schemes, functional groups in various moieties and substituents (in addition to those already explicitly noted in the foregoing schemes) may be sensitive or reactive under the reaction conditions employed and/or in the presence of the reagents employed. Such sensitivity/reactivity can interfere with the progress of the desired reaction to reduce the yield of the desired product, or possibly even preclude its formation. Accordingly, it may be necessary or desirable to protect sensitive or reactive groups on any of the molecules concerned. Protection may be achieved by means of conventional protecting groups, such as those described in Protective Groups in Organic Chemistry, ed. J.F.W. McOmie, Plenum Press, 1973 and in T.W. Greene & P.G.M. Wuts, Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, John Wiley & Sons, 3 rd edition, 1999, and 2 nd edition, 1991. The protecting groups may be removed at a convenient subsequent stage using methods known in the art. Alternatively, the interfering group may be introduced into the molecule subsequent to the reaction Step of concern. One skilled in the art of organic synthesis will recognize that the synthesis of compounds with multiple reactive functional groups, such as –OH and NH2, may require protection of certain functional groups (i.e., derivatization for the purpose of chemical compatibility with a reaction condition). Suitable protecting groups for the various functional groups of these compounds and methods for their installation and removal are well-known in the art of organic chemistry. A summary of many of these methods may be found in Greene & Wuts, Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis, John Wiley & Sons, 3 rd edition (1999). One skilled in the art of organic synthesis will also recognize that one route for the synthesis of the Compounds of Formula (I) may be more desirable depending on the choice of appendage substituents. Additionally, one skilled in the relevant art will recognize that in some cases the order of reactions may differ from that presented herein to avoid functional group incompatibilities and thus adjust the synthetic route accordingly. Compounds of formula vii, x, xv and xvii may be further elaborated using methods that would be well-known to those skilled in the art of organic synthesis or, for example, the methods described in the Examples below, to make the full scope of the Compounds of Formula (I). The starting materials used, and the intermediates prepared using the methods set forth in Schemes 1 to 6 may be isolated and purified if desired using conventional techniques, including but not limited to filtration, distillation, crystallization, chromatography and alike. Such materials may be characterized using conventional means, including physical constants and spectral data. The following abbreviations may be used in the following experimentals:

EXAMPLES The following examples serve only to illustrate the invention and its practice. The examples are not to be construed as limitations on the scope or spirit of the invention. In these examples, all temperatures are degrees Celsius unless otherwise noted, and "room temperature" refers to a temperature in a range of from about 20 °C to about 25 °C. Reactions sensitive to moisture or air were performed under nitrogen using anhydrous solvents and reagents. The progress of reactions was determined by either analytical thin layer chromatography (TLC) performed with E. Merck precoated TLC plates, silica gel 60F-254, layer thickness 0.25 mm or liquid chromatography-mass spectrum (LC-MS). For HPLC/MS data, the two HPLC conditions used were as follows: 1) LC2 (Waters C18 XTerra™ 3.5 µm 2.1x20 mm column with gradient 10:90-98:2 v/v CH 3 CN/H 2 O + v 0.05 % TFA over 1.25 min then hold at 98:2 v/v CH 3 CN/H 2 O + v 0.05% TFA for 0.75 min; flow rate 1.5 mL/min, UV wavelength 254 nm); and 2) LC4 (Waters C18 XTerra 3.5 µm 2.1x20 mm column with gradient 10:90-98:2 v/v CH 3 CN/H 2 O + v 0.05 % TFA over 3.25 min then hold at 98:2 v/v CH3CN/H2O + v 0.05 % TFA for 0.75 min; flow rate 1.5 mL/min, UV wavelength 254 nm). Mass analysis was performed with electrospray ionization in positive ion detection mode. 1 H NMR spectra were recorded on Varian or Bruker instruments at 400–500 MHz. Chemical shifts are reported in ppm downfield and up field from tetramethylsilane (TMS) and referenced to either internal TMS or solvent resonances ( 1 H NMR: δ 7.27 for CDCl 3 , δ 2.50 for (CD3)(CHD2)SO, and 13 C NMR: δ 77.02 for CDCl3, δ 39.51 for (CD3)2SO. Coupling constants (J) are expressed in hertz (Hz), and spin multiplicities are given as s (singlet), d (doublet), dd (double doublet), t (triplet), m (multiplet), and br (broad). Chiral resolutions were performed on either Waters Thar 80 SFC or Berger MG II preparative SFC systems. Concentration of solutions was carried out on a rotary evaporator under reduced pressure or by lyophilization. Flash chromatography was performed on pre-packed silica gel columns using a commercial MPLC system. Compounds described herein were synthesized as racemic mixtures unless otherwise stated in the experimental procedures.

Flu A Neuraminidase Antiviral Assay A fluorescent assay monitoring the activity of influenza-derived neuraminidase (NA) enzyme in infected cells was developed to evaluate antiviral compounds against Flu A. NA activity enables the release of influenza virions from infected cells but is also functional in cell culture systems that retain infectious virus at the cell surface like Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) epithelial cells which require chemical intervention for release of virus. NA activity can be monitored by the increase in fluorescence of MUNAN (4-methylumbelliferone) released as product from enzymatic substrate cleavage of 2’-(4-methylumbelliferyl)-α-D-N- acetylneuraminic acid (MUNANA). The amount of fluorescence is directly proportional to the amount of NA enzyme activity which increases with viral replication.

On the day of assay, cells are washed with 15-20 ml PBS (Thermo Fisher) followed by the addition of 1.5 ml 0.25% Trypsin-EDTA (Thermo Fisher) solution and incubation at 37 o C for 2-5 min. After the cells have dislodged from the plate, 6-8 mL of growth medium is added to resuspend cells. Cells are counted in a ViCell Counter (Beckman), and the cell density is adjusted to 80,000 cells/mL by adding growth medium. FLU A (PR/8/34) at 3.4E+08 pfu/ml is diluted 1:25,000 in to the MDCK cell suspension. Compounds diluted in DMSO are titrated (10-point, 3-fold dilution) and added by acoustic dispense (200 nL, Labcyte Echo) into a 384-well black polystyrene tissue-culture treated microplate (Corning). The cell and virus suspension (25 µL) is dispensed into each well of the assay plate. Plates are briefly centrifuged to (300 rpm x 30 s) and incubated at 37 o C in an atmosphere of 5% CO2, and >85% humidity for 48 h. For detection of NA activity, the MUNANA substrate (MP Biomedical) is diluted in dH 2 O at a concentration of 2.5 mM. The substrate is further diluted in assay buffer (66.6 mM MES, 8 mM CaCl2, pH 6.5) to a concentration of 200 µM. A volume of 6 µl of the substrate dilution is added to each well of the assay plate, shaken for 1 min to mix and returned to the incubator for 1 h at 37 o C. Then, 25 µL of MUNANA Stop Solution (0.2 M sodium carbonate, Fisher) in dH 2 O was added to each well followed by shaking for 1 min. An Envision plate reader (Perkin Elmer) was used to measure the fluorescence intensity (Ex = 355 nm, Em = 460 nm) of each well. Raw data from each test well is normalized to the average signal of 100% inhibited wells (Max Effect; 100% inhibition) and virus infected cells only (Min Effect; 0% inhibition) to calculate % inhibition using the following formula: % inhibition = 100*(Test Cmpd – Max Effect)/(Min Effect – Max Effect). Data are analyzed using ActivityBase (IDBS), and dose-response curves were generated by plotting percent inhibition (Y-axis) vs. Log10 compound concentrations (X-axis). IC50 values are calculated using a non-linear regression, four-parameters sigmoidal dose-response model. The compounds of the instant invention were tested in the assay described and the results appear in the table below.
