AI Technical Summary
The existing LSD1 inhibitors are mostly tepthylencypropylamine compounds, and lack new skeleton compounds, which limits the effectiveness of anti-tumor treatment.
A new type of aromatic six-membered ring-coimidazole derivative was developed, which was prepared by esterification, nucleophilic substitution, reduction, nucleophilic addition dehydration, ring formation, ester hydrolysis and acylation as an LSD1 inhibitor.
These novel compounds show better LSD1 inhibitory activity in vitro, providing a new drug backbone with great potential and can be used for cancer treatment alone or in combination with other drugs.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of drug synthesis, and particularly relates to a novel class of aromatic six-membered ring-fused imidazole derivatives, a preparation method thereof, and their use as lysine-specific demethylase 1 inhibitors. Background Art
[0002] Epigenetics plays a key role in life, controlling gene expression and transcription, and contributing to various cellular processes, including cell differentiation, proliferation, and migration. Among various epigenetic modifications, lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) is the first identified histone demethylase, which specifically removes methyl groups in monomethylated and dimethylated H3K4 and H3K9 through enzymatic oxidation, and contributes to downstream gene transcription. By regulating gene expression, LSD1 is closely related to tumorigenesis, stem cell biology, neurodegenerative diseases, viral infections, diabetes, and fibrosis. At the same time, many research results support that the abnormal expression of LSD1 is closely related to the progression of malignant tumors such as prostate cancer, gastric cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, and blood cancer, and inhibiting the biological function of LSD1 will produce an anti-cancer effect, indicating that LSD1 is a potential cancer treatment target. Therefore, the development of LSD1 inhibitors is beneficial to the research and development of anti-tumor drugs and can be used alone or in combination with other drugs for the treatment of cancer.
[0003] In the past few decades, great efforts have been made to develop bioactive LSD1 inhibitors, which can be divided into two types according to their mechanism of action: irreversible inhibitors and reversible inhibitors. Irreversible inhibitors can form a covalent bond with the cofactor FAD, blocking the cycle of FAD participating in demethylation, thereby exerting LSD1 inhibitory activity. So far, no LSD1 inhibitor for tumor treatment has been marketed.
[0004] Representative LSD1 inhibitors in the clinical research stage, such as ORY-1001, ORY-2001, GSK-2879552, and IMG-7289, are irreversible inhibitors with a trans-phenylcyclopropylamine as the structural core. Among the inhibitors with published structures, only Seclidemstat mesylate originally developed by the University of Utah and promoted to clinical trials by Salarius Pharmaceuticals and CC-90011 developed by Celgene Corporation are in the clinical research stage as reversible LSD1 inhibitors, and their indications are all tumors.
[0005] Currently, most of the research and development of LSD1 inhibitors are carried out with trans-phenylcyclopropylamine compounds, and developing more new skeleton LSD1 inhibitors is a research hotspot in the anti-tumor field. Summary of the Invention

[0179] In the present invention, the aromatic six-membered ring-fused imidazole derivatives represented by the general formula (I) and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be administered alone, but are usually administered in a mixture with a pharmaceutical carrier. The selection of the pharmaceutical carrier should be based on the desired route of administration and standard pharmaceutical practice. The following will illustrate their new applications in the pharmaceutical field by the preparation methods of various pharmaceutical dosage forms of such compounds, such as tablets, capsules, injections, aerosols, suppositories, membranes, dripping pills, external liniments, and ointments.
[0180] Test Two:
[0181] In vitro H + ,K + -ATPase Pharmacological Test
[0182] In this experiment, enzyme standard products were extracted in the manner reported in the literature for in vitro enzyme activity tests. The specific operation steps are as follows: Prepare the gastric mucosal microsomal fraction from fresh pig stomach. First, rinse the removed stomach under tap water to remove impurities, and then immerse it in 3 mol / L NaCl solution to remove mucus. Separate the gastric mucosa from the stomach surface and chop it into a buffer solution composed of 1 mmol / L EDTA, 10 mmol / L Tris-HCl, and 0.25 mol / L sucrose solution, and then homogenize for 10 min. Centrifuge the obtained homogenate at 20000 g for 30 min, and further centrifuge the supernatant at 100000 g for 90 min. Suspend the precipitate evenly in the buffer solution, overlay it on 0.25 mol / L sucrose solution containing 7.5% Ficoll, and centrifuge at 100000 g for 90 min. Collect the microsomal fraction and wash it by centrifugation with 0.25 mol / L sucrose solution. Then disperse it in the buffer solution, and determine the protein concentration in the suspension by the Brandford method, which is used as the standard product of H + ,K + -ATPase.
[0183] Determine H + ,K +-ATPase activity. The enzyme standard was diluted to a concentration of 2.5 μg / mL in 50 mmol / L HEPES Tris buffer (5 mmol / L magnesium chloride, 10 mmol / L potassium chloride, 10 μmol / L valine, pH 6.5). 5 μL of the test compound dissolved in different concentrations of 10% DMSO solution was added to the diluted enzyme solution, and then incubated at 37 °C for 30 min. Subsequently, 5 μL of 2 mmol / L adenosine triphosphate Tris salt buffer (50 mmol / L HEPES Tris buffer (5 mmol / L magnesium chloride, pH 6.5)) was added, and an enzymatic reaction was carried out at 37 °C for 20 min. The reaction was terminated by adding 15 μL of malachite green reagent (0.12% malachite green in sulfuric acid (2.5 mol / L), 7.5% ammonium molybdate, and 11% Tween 20, reagent ratio 100:25:2), and allowed to stand at room temperature for 15 min. Finally, the reaction product of inorganic phosphorus and malachite green in the mixture was measured at a wavelength of 610 nm. The activity of H + ,K + -ATPase was calculated based on the difference in activity with and without potassium chloride. The inhibition of the test compound was expressed as a percentage, and the corresponding IC 50 value was calculated using GraphPad Prism.

[0188] The candidate drug was stored at 4 °C for a long time and prepared immediately before use. When dissolving, anhydrous ethanol was added first, and after complete dissolution, ultrapure water was slowly added multiple times until the final ethanol concentration in the solution was 10%. The dosing volume of each group of candidate drug, solvent, and modeling agent was 10 mL / kg.
[0189] (1) Effects of the test compound on the basal gastric acid secretion in SD rats: Male SD rats weighing 250 - 280 g were selected.
