Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of compound synthesis and application, and in particular to a derivative of a desphenolic acid compound and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) is an important member of the phosphodiesterase family, which is mainly responsible for hydrolyzing cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) to regulate the concentration of intracellular cAMP. By inhibiting the activity of PDE4, the cAMP level can be increased, activating the downstream protein kinase A (PKA) pathway, and then regulating a variety of cellular physiological processes, including neuronal plasticity, synaptic transmission, memory formation, anti-inflammatory response, etc.
[0003] Currently, PDE4 inhibitors have been widely studied for the treatment of a variety of diseases, including: Central nervous system diseases: such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, schizophrenia and depression. PDE4 inhibitors improve cognitive function and neuroinflammation by regulating the cAMP / PKA / CREB pathway. Inflammatory diseases: such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), atopic dermatitis, inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), etc. PDE4 inhibitors exert anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting the activation of inflammatory cells and the release of inflammatory factors. Fibrotic diseases: such as idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and liver fibrosis. Studies have found that PDE4 inhibitors can reduce fibrosis by regulating the synthesis and degradation of the extracellular matrix.
[0004] Although PDE4 inhibitors have shown great potential in disease treatment, their clinical application still faces some challenges, mainly due to dose-dependent gastrointestinal side effects (such as nausea and vomiting). In order to overcome these side effects, researchers are committed to developing new PDE4 inhibitors. The main strategies include: Structural optimization: Improving the selectivity and bioavailability of inhibitors through molecular design and structural modification. Structural derivatization is an important means to improve the activity of compounds. For example: Intramolecular cyclization: Cyclization at the 2 and 3 positions and the introduction of alkyl carboxylic acid groups at the C-6 position or the introduction of crotonic acid groups at the C-1 position can significantly improve the PDE4 inhibitory activity. Substituent optimization: When the alkyl chain length on the substituent is 6-7 carbons, the activity is stronger; when a benzyl group is introduced at the C-6 position, the activity is also stronger. Heterocyclic introduction: The introduction of aryloxy and heterocyclic groups, such as chlorothiophene, at different positions on the pyridine ring can enhance the PDE4 inhibitory activity.
[0005] The inventors of the present application have found through research that stone flowers (such as plants of the family Meliaceae) contain a variety of chemical components, including proteins, sugars, anthraquinones, steroids, triterpenes, phenols, flavonoids and volatile oils. Compounds with PDE4 inhibitory activity may exist in these components. At present, compounds with PDE4 inhibitory activity isolated from stone flowers have not been clearly reported. Developing new PDE4 inhibitors from stone flowers can further optimize the activity of the compounds through structural derivatization, providing potential drug candidates for the treatment of diseases.
[0006] Psoriasis (commonly known as "psoriasis") is an immune-mediated chronic, recurrent, inflammatory skin disease with a complex pathogenesis, mainly related to genetics, immune abnormalities and environmental factors. At present, PDE4 inhibitors have certain application prospects in the treatment of psoriasis, but their side effects, efficacy limitations and administration routes still need to be further optimized. The development of new, safer and more effective PDE4 inhibitors is of far-reaching significance.
