Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical chemistry, and specifically relates to a nitrocatechol derivative, a pharmaceutical composition containing the same, and its application Background Art
[0002] Parkinson's disease (PD) is a serious progressive neurodegenerative movement disorder, and its cause is still unclear. The degeneration of dopamine neurons in the substantia nigra and striatum leads to DA deficiency, which is the cause of PD movement disorders. Its main symptoms are usually akinesia, rigidity and tremor. The main strategy for treating Parkinson's disease is to increase the level of dopamine (DA) in the brain. Clinical drug treatment is mainly based on the precursor drug levodopa (L-Dopamine). In addition, it also includes DA receptor agonists, catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT) inhibitors, monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) inhibitors, anticholinergic drugs, etc.
[0003] COMT is an enzyme responsible for metabolizing endogenous neurotransmitters. It transfers a methyl group from its coenzyme S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) to a hydroxyl group of the endogenous neurotransmitter through magnesium ion catalysis, thereby terminating its biological activity. Currently, most known COMT inhibitors are nitrocatechol-based compounds, such as the marketed drugs Tolcapone and Entacapone, which can inhibit the activity of COMT enzymes in peripheral and central tissues, block the peripheral degradation of levodopa, and increase its plasma half-life, thereby allowing more oral levodopa to cross the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and enter the brain. Therefore, they are used as an adjunct to levodopa in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. Monoamine oxidase is a mitochondrial enzyme that plays an important role in the in vivo inactivation of biogenic amines in peripheral and central nervous tissues. In the central nervous system (CNS), dopamine is mainly metabolized by MAO-B. Currently, MAO-B inhibitors such as rasagiline, selegiline, and safinamide have been developed for clinical use and are often used alone or in combination with levodopa to treat early PD. In addition, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a byproduct of MAO-B metabolism of dopamine, which may cause oxidative damage to dopaminergic neurons.
[0004] In theory, COMT / MAO-B dual-target inhibitors can effectively inhibit the metabolism of levodopa and dopamine in peripheral and central tissues through multiple pathways, thereby prolonging the half-life of levodopa and inhibiting DA metabolism, thereby increasing and maintaining the DA content in the body through two pathways: increasing exogenous DA and reducing endogenous DA metabolism. In addition, as MAO-B inhibitors, they can also reduce the hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) generated in dopamine metabolism, thereby preventing dopaminergic neurons from being damaged by oxidation. Therefore, the development of COMT / MAO-B dual-target inhibitors is reasonable for the treatment of PD and has important research and application value. At present, there are no COMT / MAO-B dual-target inhibitors. Summary of the invention

[0132] Example 25: Detection of the amount in the blood and brain at different times after oral administration of Example 18 (Compound C11)
[0133] Eight male ICR mice were fasted for 12 h, and each mouse was given a single dose of the compound 20 mg / kg orally by gavage (using V DMSO :V PEG400 :V 生理盐水 =1:49:50 to make a solution with a concentration of 2 mg / mL), and 1 mL of blood samples were collected from the orbital sinus in heparinized tubes at 30 min, 50 min, 80 min, and 120 min. The plasma supernatant was separated by centrifugation, and the supernatant was diluted with methanol to 1:3, vortexed for 5 min, and centrifuged at 4°C, 15000 rpm for 15 min before injection and analysis. At the same time, brain tissue samples were taken, and then the brain was rolled on filter paper, weighed (recorded brain weight), placed in a -80°C refrigerator for 15 min, and directly diluted with 1-fold methanol: saline (3:7, v / v), and each tissue sample was homogenized and centrifuged at 4°C, 15000 rpm for 15 min. Then, the supernatant was taken and an equal volume of methanol was added to precipitate protein, vortexed for 5 min, and centrifuged at 4°C, 15000 rpm for 15 min. The supernatant was filtered through a membrane and injected for analysis by LC-MS / MS.
[0134] The LC-MS / MS conditions were as follows: the chromatographic column was a C18 column (150×4.6 mm, 5 μM); the mobile phase was: phase A was pure water, and phase B was an organic phase (methanol); isocratic elution was used: the organic phase ratio was 93%; flow rate: 0.5 mL / min, injection volume: 10.0 μL, and column temperature: 35°C.
[0135] The results are shown in the table. The highest C11 content was detected in the blood 30 minutes after administration, and then rapidly dropped to the lowest at 50 minutes, and then increased again at 80 minutes, which may be due to enterohepatic circulation; the C11 content detected in the brain tissue was 20-300 ng·g -1 Within the range of 30 to 180 minutes, the content of C11 in the brain first increased and then decreased with time, and the highest content was 298.47±176.41ng·g at 120 minutes. -1 At this time, the concentration of C11 in the brain is about twice that in the serum, indicating that C11 has good BBB permeability. At the same time point of 120 minutes, the concentration of compound C11 in brain tissue is higher than that of C12, and C11 may have a better effect of entering the brain.
