Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of medicinal chemistry, and particularly relates to arylalkyl-4-(1H) indolylpiperazine derivatives, their preparation methods and applications. Background Art
[0002] Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease of the nervous system mainly characterized by neurodegeneration in the nigrostriatal pathway. Its clinical features mainly include resting tremor, muscle rigidity, bradykinesia and postural balance disorders. At the same time, it can be accompanied by non-motor symptoms such as depression, constipation and sleep disorders.
[0003] Parkinson's disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the world after Alzheimer's disease, and it often occurs in the elderly. The incidence rate of people over 65 years old in China is 1.7% (Zhang Z X. The Lancet, 2005, 365(9459):595 - 597.). According to incomplete statistics, the number of Parkinson's disease patients in China is about 2.7 million, and the number of newly diagnosed patients increases by 100,000 every year. China has become the "No. 1 country for Parkinson's disease" (Pahwa R. American Journal of Managed Care, 2010(4):S94.). Parkinson's disease not only has a high incidence rate, but also is a lifelong disease, and there is currently no drug that can cure it. As the disease progresses, patients gradually lose their ability to live and work independently, and complications such as sports injuries and mental disorders occur, seriously affecting the quality of life. And patients need to take medicine for a long time, bringing a huge economic burden to the family.
[0004] Dopamine receptor agonists are important drugs for the clinical treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD). They can directly stimulate the dopamine receptors postsynaptically in the striatum to play a role. Because they do not compete with amino acids in the brain, their metabolism does not produce free radicals and there is no oxidative stress response, and they may also have the function of protecting and repairing nerves. This type of drug can be administered alone to treat patients with mild PD symptoms, or it can be used in combination with compound levodopa, thereby reducing the dose of levodopa and alleviating adverse reactions such as motor symptom fluctuations and dyskinesia (Guridi J. Parkinsons Dis, 2012, 2012:1 - 15.). Classified by the chemical structure of the drug, dopamine receptor agonists can be divided into ergot alkaloids (bromocriptine, pergolide, lisuride, etc.) and non-ergot alkaloids (ropinirole, pramipexole and cabergoline, etc.). Because the initial ergot drugs used in combination with levodopa would cause severe side effects, they are now rarely used and are gradually replaced by new non-ergot selective dopamine receptor agonists. Representative drugs include: bromocriptine, pergolide, ropinirole, pramipexole. Among them, pramipexole is dopamine D 2 、D 3 、D4 Receptor agonists, ropinirole is a dopamine D 2 、D 3 receptor agonist.
[0005] Selective dopamine receptor agonists remain a key research direction for Parkinson's drugs, and several drugs have entered the clinical trial stage. For example, CQA-206-291 in clinical phase III is a D 2 receptor agonist developed by Novartis; Aplindore fumarate, BAM-1110, and Mesdopetam in clinical phase II also act on different dopamine receptors.
[0006] 5-HT 1A receptors belong to the transmembrane receptor or G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family. It is the first subtype of the serotonin receptor subtype to be isolated and fully sequenced. It is mainly distributed in the raphe nucleus, hippocampus, amygdala, and cortex in the central nervous system and can control memory, cognition, and improve mood, etc.
[0007] The 5-HT 1A receptor in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) is involved in levodopa-induced dyskinesias (LID), so it has attracted the attention of researchers. Studies have found that the presynaptic 5-HT 1A receptor on serotonergic fibers can reduce the release of abnormal dopamine; the postsynaptic membrane 5-HT 1A receptor can reduce the overactive cortico-striatal glutamate neurotransmission.
[0008] Studies have shown that selective 5-HT 1A receptor agonists are closely related to pharmacological effects such as dyskinesia, improving cognitive impairment, and anti-anxiety and depression. The new drug Eltoprazine developed by Elto et al. is an oral small molecule 5HT 1A / 1B partial agonist, which has obtained orphan drug qualification from the FDA and is used to treat Parkinson's disease (PD) levodopa-induced dyskinesia (PD-LID). Currently, it is in the phase 2b clinical trial stage. Currently, more than 680 subjects have taken Eltoprazine, and it has shown good efficacy and safety in the treatment of cognitive and motor disorders. (Cabedo N. Journal of medicinal chemistry, 2001, 44(11): 1794-1801.)
[0009] Befiradol as a selective 5HT 1AAgonists were first used to treat neuralgia in clinical trials and are now used to treat levodopa-induced dyskinesia (PD-LID) in Parkinson's disease (PD). Literature reports (Noureddine ElAouad. European Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 44(11):4616-4621.) show that Befiradol exhibits novel therapeutic properties. Without compromising the therapeutic performance of L-DOPA, it has significant antidyskinetic function and can improve non-motor psychiatric and emotional symptoms such as antidepressant and antianxiety effects.
[0010] 5HT 1A The anti-PD therapeutic effects of agonists are expected to solve the dyskinesia in Parkinson's disease, improve mood, and repair cognition, etc., and have become the focus and difficulty in the research and development of anti-PD drugs globally. With the in-depth study of the pathogenesis of PD and the rapid development of translational medicine, the development of drugs for treating the causes and clinical symptoms of PD is accelerating.
[0011] In recent years, studies have found that dopamine neurotransmitters and 5-hydroxytryptamine neurotransmitters jointly participate in the regulation of the motor system by the brain, and there is a synergistic effect on motor regulation between the related receptors of the dopamine system and the 5-hydroxytryptamine system. Relevant clinical experiments have also confirmed the advantages of multi-target synergy in the treatment of PD. (Ricardo. Bioorganic&Medicinal Chemistry, 2003.)
[0012] Among them, Brilaroxazine was developed by Reviva Pharmaceuticals and acts on dopamine D 2 、D 3 receptors and 5-HT 1A receptor multi-target partial agonists. It is being clinically developed for indications including Parkinson's disease, antipsychosis, and bipolar disorder, and is currently in clinical studies Phase I and II. Brilaroxazine has an anti-Parkinson effect by increasing the release of cortical dopamine. At the same time, literature reports show that Brilaroxazine has a significant improvement effect on the damage of sub-chronic phencyclidine-induced novel object recognition. These experimental results indicate that Brilaroxazine has obvious anti-Parkinson activity, as well as the improvement and recovery effects on cognitive impairment. (Grundt P. Bioorganic&Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2007, 17(3):745-749.)
[0013] The new anti-PD drug Bifeprunox in clinical Phase III is a 5-HT 1A receptor agonist, D 2Partial receptor agonist, clinical trials have shown that it can improve motor symptoms and relieve depression, anxiety and other mental symptoms. (Wang, Q. Neuropharmacology, 2019, 148: 1-10.)
[0014] Pridopidine, a new anti-PD drug under clinical phase II, acts on D 2 , 5-HT 1A Drugs targeting multiple receptors, such as sigma-1, have shown good improvement in movement disorders in non-human primate models and have the effects of improving cognition and neuroprotection. (Chen X. Journal of Medicinal Chemistry, 2012, 55(16): 7141-7153.)
[0015] Pardoprunox (SLV-308) is a D 2 / D 3 Partial agonist, 5-HT 1A A full agonist with anti-Parkinson's, antidepressant and antianxiety effects. (Jones CA. Eur Neuropsychopharmacol. 2010 Aug; 20(8): 582-93.) In addition, compared with other dopaminergic drugs, it has a lower tendency to cause side effects such as dyskinesia. It has now entered Phase III clinical trials for the treatment of Parkinson's disease. (Glennon, JC Synapse 2006, 60, 599-608.)

[0162] The terms "substituted" and "substituting" mean that one or more (e.g., one, two, three, or four) hydrogens on the specified atom are replaced by a selection from the indicated groups, provided that the normal valence of the specified atom in the current case is not exceeded and the substitution forms a stable compound. Combinations of substituents and / or variables are permitted only if such combinations form stable compounds. When it is described that a certain substituent is absent, it should be understood that the substituent may be one or more hydrogen atoms, provided that the structure enables the compound to reach a stable state. When it is described that each carbon atom in a group may optionally be replaced by a heteroatom, the condition is that the normal valence of all atoms in the group in the current case is not exceeded and a stable compound is formed.
[0163] If a substituent is described as "optionally... substituted", the substituent may be unsubstituted or may be substituted. If an atom or group is described as optionally substituted by one or more from a list of substituents, one or more hydrogens on that atom or group may be replaced by independently selected optional substituents. When the substituent is oxo (i.e., =O), it means that two hydrogen atoms are replaced.

For example, if a group is substituted by 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4 R substituents, the group may optionally be substituted by up to four R substituents, and the options for each R substituent in each case are independent of each other.
[0166] The term "substituted" means that one or more hydrogen atoms on a compound or group are replaced by other atoms or groups. The condition is that a stable valence state or compound is formed. The expression "unsubstituted" can also be understood as "not substituted". It should be understood that when the substituent is hydrogen, this can also mean that the corresponding group is "unsubstituted" or "not substituted".
