Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of drug synthesis and relates to a benzimidazole-substituted cyclopentenone compound and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] The development of natural antibiotics and synthetic antimicrobial agents began with penicillin in the 1930s and has experienced a period of rapid development. Antibiotics of various structural types have emerged one after another, mainly including β-lactams, sulfonamides, tetracyclines, macrolides, aminoglycosides, chloramphenicol, peptides, streptomycins, quinolones, etc. However, since the 1970s, the development of antibiotics has slowed down. Only around 2000, three new types of antibiotics, oxazolones, mylins and lipopeptides, appeared. In the past two decades, few new structural antibiotics have been approved for marketing. With the continuous mutation of bacteria and the widespread spread of drug-resistant genes, the problem of drug resistance has become more and more serious. Some super bacteria have become resistant to various antibiotics and can even break through the last line of human antibiotic defense. Therefore, it is urgent to develop new antibacterial compounds that can overcome drug resistance.
[0003] Cyclopentenone derivatives are a class of organic compounds containing cyclopentenone structures. They play an important role in medicinal chemistry, because cyclopentenone and its derivatives are particularly important due to their ubiquitous presence in biologically active natural compounds and their key role in drug development and synthesis. This type of compound has a five-membered ring structure, in which a ketone group and an unsaturated carbon-carbon double bond are fused, which gives them unique electrophilic and nucleophilic reaction properties, making them highly plastic building blocks in organic chemistry. Benzimidazole derivatives are widely used in antibacterial insecticides. Benzimidazole BZ includes albendazole (ABZ), mebendazole (MZ) and flubendazole, of which ABZ and MZ are the most commonly used in clinical practice. They have broad-spectrum antiparasitic effects, significant efficacy and high safety, and therefore have been used since 1975.
[0004] Both benzimidazole and cyclopentenone have significant biological activity, but no compound with both active groups has been extracted from food-derived natural products, and there is no precedent for combining cyclopentenone and benzimidazole, both of which have good biologically active groups. Combined with the excellent antibacterial activity and possible anti-tumor activity of both, the new compound formed by the combination of the two has broad application prospects. At the same time, the patent is committed to improving the traditional method of synthesizing cyclopentenone and designing a more environmentally friendly method for synthesizing cyclopentenone, which is the focus of this patent.

According to the following description, the advantages and features of the present invention will become clearer. It should be noted that the accompanying drawings are all in a very simplified form and are not in precise proportions, which are only used to conveniently and clearly assist in explaining the purpose of the embodiments of the present invention. The same or similar reference numerals in the accompanying drawings represent the same or similar parts.
[0033] The method for synthesizing the benzimidazole-substituted cyclopentenone compounds of the present invention is as follows:
[0034] After dissolving the polysubstituted benzimidazole acetonitrile compound of formula II in an appropriate solvent, a ketone compound of formula III and acetone are added respectively, and the reaction is carried out at a certain temperature by catalysis of an organic base, and the reaction is detected by TLC until the reaction substrate is completely reacted to obtain a benzindole intermediate as shown in formula IV; then an oxidant and an inorganic base are added to the reaction solution, and the reaction is continuously detected by TLC. After the reaction is complete, ice water is immediately added to quench; extraction is carried out with ethyl acetate, and the organic layer is taken, and the extract is dried with anhydrous Na2SO4, and the dried liquid is concentrated and evaporated to dryness, and then the concentrated evaporated product is separated by column chromatography to obtain a pure target product of formula I.

[0038] In the reaction, the solvent can be N,N-dimethylformamide, 1,4-dioxane, acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran or acetone; the reaction temperature is 0℃~55℃; the reaction time is not specified, usually 12~36 hours. The reaction process is tracked by TLC detection. After the reaction is complete, the reaction is quenched with an equal volume of ice water to obtain a reaction solution, and the reaction solution is extracted with ethyl acetate, usually with an equal volume of solvent, and extracted three times. The solvent for column chromatography separation is not specified, and the commonly used mobile phase is petroleum ether and ethyl acetate, with a volume ratio of 10:1~6:1.

[0039] The compound of formula II is known, can be prepared according to known methods, and is also commercially available.
[0040] The compounds of formula III are known, or can be prepared according to known methods, or are commercially available.
[0041] Acetone is well known and can be prepared according to known methods or purchased commercially.
[0042] The invention starts from readily available raw materials of polysubstituted benzimidazole acetonitrile II, ketone compound III and acetone, and synthesizes a series of novel benzimidazole substituted cyclopentenone compounds I through a one-pot method.
[0043] The MIC value was determined by the microdilution method (references: Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2013, 23, 5958–5963; Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2013, 23, 2399–2403):
[0044] Step 1: Add the sterilized liquid culture medium to a sterile 96-well polystyrene plate, add 180 μL of culture medium to each well in the first column of the plate, and add 100 μL to each of the remaining wells. Take 20 μL of the prepared solution and add it to the wells in the first column. Only one antibacterial drug can be added to each well. Seven samples can be added to one plate, and the remaining well can be added with the control drug norfloxacin or fluconazole. The operation is basically similar to the constant dilution method. Use a pipette to mix the liquid in the first well evenly, aspirate 100 μL and add it to the second well. Repeat the same operation. After mixing evenly, aspirate 100 μL to the third well, and then proceed to the bottom 11 wells in turn. Mix the liquid evenly, aspirate 100 μL and discard it. The 12th well is used as a growth control. At this time, the drug concentrations in wells 1-11 are 1000.000, 500.000, 250.000, 125.000, 62.500, 31.250, 15.625, 7.813, 3.906, 1.953, and 0.976 μg / mL respectively; to meet the MIC value determination at a lower drug concentration, the sterilized liquid culture medium is added to the sterile 96-well polystyrene plate, 198 μL of culture medium is added to each well in the first column of the plate, and 100 μL is added to each well of the remaining wells. Take 2 μL of the prepared drug solution and add it to the first column of wells respectively. Only one antibacterial drug can be added to each well. Seven samples can be added to one plate, and the remaining one can be added with the control drug norfloxacin or fluconazole. The operation is basically similar to the constant dilution method. Use a pipette to mix the liquid in the first well, aspirate 100 μL and add it to the second well. Repeat the same operation. After mixing well, aspirate 100 μL to the third well, and then proceed to the bottom 11 wells in sequence. Mix the liquid evenly, aspirate 100 μL and discard it. The 12th well is used as a growth control. At this time, the drug concentrations in wells 1-11 are 100.000, 50.000, 25.000, 12.500, 6.250, 3.125, 1.563, 0.781, 0.391, 0.195, and 0.098 μg / mL, respectively.
[0045] Step 2: Take 15uL of the bacterial suspension of the compound of the present invention and dilute it 1000 times with the culture medium, mix well, and add 100uL of liquid culture medium to each well of the 96-well plate. At this time, the sample concentrations in wells 1-11 are 500.000, 250.000, 125.000, 62.5.000, 31.250, 15.625, 7.813, 3.906, 1.953, 0.977, and 0.488μg / mL, respectively. When the MIC value at a lower drug concentration is determined, the sample concentrations in wells 1-11 are 50.000, 25.000, 12.500, 6.250, 3.125, 1.563, 0.781, 0.391, 0.196, 0.098, and 0.049μg / mL, respectively. Cover the lid and place in a constant temperature box for culture. Bacteria need to be cultured for 24-48 hours, and fungi need to be cultured for 48-72 hours. Then observe and record the results.
[0046] Step 3: The lowest concentration of the sample that can completely inhibit bacterial growth in the small hole is the MIC value of the sample. If the hole jump phenomenon occurs, the highest sample concentration that inhibits bacterial growth shall prevail and the result shall be recorded. Each 96-well plate can only be inoculated with one bacteria, not multiple bacteria. Generally, the test needs to be repeated three times. In the absence of large errors, the average value of the three groups of experiments is taken as the MIC value.
[0047] The obtained data confirmed that the compounds of the present invention have significant activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus and Candida albicans.
[0048] The present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with some specific implementation embodiments.

[0160] MIC values were determined using the microdilution method (references: Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2013, 23, 5958–5963; Bioorganic & Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2013, 23, 2399–2403):
[0161] Step 1: Add the sterilized liquid culture medium to a sterile 96-well polystyrene plate, add 180 μL of culture medium to each well in the first column of the plate, and add 100 μL to each of the remaining wells. Take 20 μL of the prepared solution and add it to the wells in the first column. Only one antibacterial drug can be added to each well. Seven samples can be added to one plate, and the remaining well can be added with the control drug norfloxacin or fluconazole. The operation is basically similar to the constant dilution method. Use a pipette to mix the liquid in the first well evenly, aspirate 100 μL and add it to the second well. Repeat the same operation. After mixing evenly, aspirate 100 μL to the third well, and then proceed to the bottom 11 wells in turn. Mix the liquid evenly, aspirate 100 μL and discard it. The 12th well is used as a growth control. At this time, the drug concentrations in wells 1-11 are 1000.000, 500.000, 250.000, 125.000, 62.500, 31.250, 15.625, 7.813, 3.906, 1.953, and 0.976 μg / mL, respectively. To meet the MIC value determination at lower drug concentrations, add the sterilized liquid culture medium to a sterile 96-well polystyrene plate, add 198 μL of culture medium to each well in the first column of the plate, and add 100 μL to each of the remaining wells. Take 2 μL of the prepared drug solution and add it to the first column of wells. Only one antibacterial drug can be added to each well. Seven samples can be added to one plate, and the remaining one can be added with the control drug norfloxacin or fluconazole. The operation is basically similar to the constant dilution method. Use a pipette to mix the liquid in the first well, aspirate 100 μL and add it to the second well. Repeat the same operation. After mixing well, aspirate 100 μL to the third well, and then proceed to the bottom 11 wells in sequence. Mix the liquid evenly, aspirate 100 μL and discard it. The 12th well is used as a growth control. At this time, the drug concentrations in wells 1-11 are 100.000, 50.000, 25.000, 12.500, 6.250, 3.125, 1.563, 0.781, 0.391, 0.195, and 0.098 μg / mL, respectively.
[0162] Step 2: Take 15uL of the bacterial suspension of the compound of the present invention and dilute it 1000 times with the culture medium, mix well, and add 100uL of liquid culture medium to each well of the 96-well plate. At this time, the sample concentrations in wells 1-11 are 500.000, 250.000, 125.000, 62.5.000, 31.250, 15.625, 7.813, 3.906, 1.953, 0.977, and 0.488μg / mL, respectively. When the MIC value at a lower drug concentration is determined, the sample concentrations in wells 1-11 are 50.000, 25.000, 12.500, 6.250, 3.125, 1.563, 0.781, 0.391, 0.196, 0.098, and 0.049μg / mL, respectively. Cover the lid and place in a constant temperature box for culture. Bacteria need to be cultured for 24-48 hours, and fungi need to be cultured for 48-72 hours. Then observe and record the results.
[0163] Step 3: The lowest concentration of the sample that can completely inhibit bacterial growth in the small hole is the MIC value of the sample. If the hole jump phenomenon occurs, the highest sample concentration that inhibits bacterial growth shall prevail and the result shall be recorded.
[0164] Each 96-well plate can only be inoculated with one type of bacteria, not multiple bacteria. Generally, the test needs to be repeated three times. If there is no large error, the average value of the three groups of experiments is taken as the MIC value.
[0165] The measurement results are shown in Table 1.

[0168]
[0169] Note: “-” means no data.
[0170] Overall, this group of compounds has a certain inhibitory effect on the Gram-positive strain SA, and the sub-products show good antibacterial activity against the fungal strain CA. Among them, 14 has the best antibacterial activity, which can inhibit the growth of SA and CA, with MIC values of 3.3μg / mL and 1.0μg / mL, respectively. The activity of SA is close to that of the drug norfloxacin (Norfloxacin, SA, 0.8μg / mL), and the activity against CA can reach twice that of the drug fluconazole (Fluconazol, CA, 2.0μg / mL). In addition, the MIC value of dichloro compound 7 inhibiting the growth of CA reached 0.7μg / mL, which is three times that of fluconazole. The above data all prove that this type of compound has certain prospects for the development of antibacterial drugs.
