Description

[0001] The present application claims priority to the Chinese patent application No. 2024104935740, filed on April 23, 2024, and entitled "Indole and saturated ring compound or its derivative and application thereof", the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference. TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The present application relates to the field of pharmaceutical chemistry, in particular to a class of indole and saturated ring compounds or its derivatives and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0003] Uric acid is the final product of purine metabolism in humans and non-human primates, which is formed by the catalysis of xanthine oxidase. Humans do not have uricase, and uric acid can only be excreted out of the body through the intestines and the kidneys. Due to the popularity of Western diets, excessive intake of purines through diet, a large number of cell deaths in a short period of time (tumor lysis syndrome), and genetic or environmental factors that cause low efficiency of uric acid excretion pathways, all of which can lead to hyperuricemia. A large amount of basic and clinical medical data shows that whether or not uric acid crystals are formed, hyperuricemia itself is an independent high-risk factor related to the pathogenesis of many diseases of the body (such as diabetic nephropathy, other chronic kidney diseases, and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases). The normal value range of human blood uric acid is 3-6.0 mg / dl (180-360 umol), and the solubility of uric acid is <6.5 mg / dl (37℃, pH 7.0). When the concentration exceeds this value, crystals may be formed, and the decrease of pH value and temperature promotes the formation of crystals, which are deposited in the joints of the distal extremities or other parts of the body (such as blood vessels and kidneys), causing cell damage and inflammation, and causing great pain to patients and seriously affecting the quality of life of patients. Hyperuricemia accounts for 8% of the total population, and gout patients account for 4% of the total population. Among people over 60 years old, more than 10% of them will have gout attacks.

[0004] Currently, the drugs used to reduce uric acid mainly include the following: allopurinol or febuxostat inhibits xanthine oxidase to reduce the generation of uric acid; benzbromarone interferes with the reabsorption of uric acid in the kidneys to promote the excretion of uric acid; or for patients with refractory hyperuricemia, exogenous recombinant, modified uricase (even combined with immunosuppressants) is used to degrade uric acid; or some single-target drugs targeting uric acid transport proteins, such as Lesinurad approved in the United States in 2015 and withdrawn from the market in 2019, and Dotinurad approved in Japan.

[0005] Current drugs and therapeutic approaches have their limitations, and there is a huge unmet clinical need for hyperuricemia and gout patients, so it is necessary to develop safe and effective new uric acid-lowering drugs. From the mechanism of action and pharmacokinetics, the strategy of attacking the pathways of uric acid generation (xanthine oxidase) and uric acid reabsorption (uric acid transporter URAT1, gene name SLC22A12) at the same time with a single molecule is more advantageous than the strategy of attacking them separately. Pfizer developed a XOR / URAT1 dual inhibitor, a dual-target molecule PF-06743649, but it stopped at the clinical phase I because a few patients developed acute kidney injury. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new dual-target uric acid-lowering drug to benefit hyperuricemia patients. SUMMARY

[0006] In view of the above problems, the present application provides an indole and saturated ring compound or its derivative, which has good inhibitory activity on xanthine oxidase (XOR) and uric acid transporter (URAT1), is a XOR / URAT1 dual inhibitor, and has good uric acid-lowering effect.

[0099] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this invention have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the invention. The term "and / or" as used in this invention includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0100] Furthermore, as used herein, the term "or" is an inclusive "or" sign and is equivalent to the term "and / or" unless the context clearly specifies otherwise. The term "based on" is not exclusive and allows for basing on other factors not described unless the context clearly specifies otherwise. Additionally, throughout the specification, the meanings of "an," "a," and "the" include plural indicators. The meaning of "in" includes both "in" and "on."

[0101] In the compounds described in this invention, when any variable (e.g., R) 4 R 5 If a component (e.g., a substituent) appears more than once in any component, the definition of each occurrence is independent of the definition of each subsequent occurrence. Similarly, combinations of substituents and variables are permitted, provided such combinations stabilize the compound. A line drawn from a substituent into the ring system indicates that the bond referred to can be attached to any substituted ring atom. If the ring system is polycyclic, it means that such a bond is attached only to any suitable carbon atom of a neighboring ring. It should be understood that those skilled in the art can select the substituents and substitution patterns of the compounds of this invention to provide chemically stable compounds that can be readily synthesized from readily available starting materials using techniques in the art and the methods described below. If a substituent is itself substituted by more than one group, it should be understood that these groups can be on the same carbon atom or on different carbon atoms, as long as the structure is stable.

[0102] As used herein, the term "alkyl" refers to both branched and straight-chain saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon groups having a specific number of carbon atoms. For example, the definition of "C1-C6" in "C1-C6 alkyl" includes groups having 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 carbon atoms arranged in a straight or branched chain. Specifically, "C1-C6 alkyl" includes methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, tert-butyl, isobutyl, pentyl, and hexyl.

[0103] As used herein, the term "cycloalkyl" refers to a monocyclic, bicyclic, or polycyclic cyclic hydrocarbon group whose ring atoms are composed of carbon atoms and are saturated or partially unsaturated.

[0342] Example 10: Inhibition of xanthine oxidase activity by the compound

[0343] Weigh 3 mg of the test compound, including the positive control febuxostat, dissolve it in DMSO to prepare a 10 mM stock solution, and then serially dilute it with 5% DMSO aqueous solution to prepare 8 concentration gradients containing the same concentration of DMSO (500 uM, 50 uM, 5 uM, 500 nM, 250 nM, 50 nM, 5 nM, 0.5 nM).

[0344] The xanthine oxidase activity assay kit (MAK078-1KT) was purchased from the Merck website. Mouse liver tissue (500 μL / 30 mg) was homogenized using the kit's assay buffer to obtain a tissue homogenate containing mouse xanthine oxidase. After centrifugation at 10,000 rpm for 10 min at 4°C, the supernatant was transferred to a new centrifuge tube and placed on ice for later use.

[0345] Add 50 μL of tissue homogenate to each well of a 96-well plate, followed by 2 μL of the corresponding concentration of the test compound, and then 48 μL of the mixture containing the other components of the kit, for a total volume of 100 μL / well. Incubate at 25°C for 3 minutes, then excite at 535 nm. Read the fluorescence intensity at 587 nm (the more superoxide radicals generated by xanthine oxidase oxidizing hypoxanthine and xanthine in the reaction system, the more Resorufin is produced through chemical reaction with 10-acetyl-3,7-dihydroxyphenoxazine in the system, resulting in higher fluorescence intensity and indicating higher xanthine oxidase activity). Dynamically read the fluorescence every 3 minutes over 15 minutes at 25°C. Wells without inhibitors represent 100% xanthine oxidase activity, while wells without enzymes represent zero activity (background). After reading the plate, perform QC to confirm that the 12-minute mark is within the linear range. Analyze the inhibition efficiency at the 12-minute mark to obtain the IC50 of the test compound. 50 .

[0346] The test results are shown in Table 2: The indole-saturated cyclic compounds or their derivatives of the present invention have a strong inhibitory effect on the activity of xanthine oxidase, and the inhibitory activity of some compounds is better than that of the positive control drug febuxostat.

[0349] Example 11: Inhibition of uric acid transporter protein by compound

[0350] As in Example 10, a concentration gradient of the test compound and the positive control (lesinurad) was prepared.

[0351] All cell culture media were purchased from Invitrogen, and plastic products from Corning. Because renal tubular epithelial cells express Urat1 and Glut9, these cells can be used to detect uric acid transporter activity. Mouse renal tubular epithelial cells were seeded on cell culture transwell membranes with 0.4 μm pores and cultured until the cells completely covered the transwell, forming a monolayer. Before detecting the test compound, the transwell cuvettes were replaced with DMEM basal medium containing a specific concentration of the test compound and 4.5 mg / dL uric acid. The bottom layer of the multi-well plate was replaced with DMEM basal medium without uric acid. After incubation at 37°C for 60 min, 100 μL of medium was removed from the bottom layer of the multi-well plate, and the uric acid concentration was read at 290 nm using a microplate reader. Using wells without uric acid as a blank control and wells without the compound as 100% transport, the uric acid concentration in the wells corresponding to the test compound was compared with the concentration in the wells with 100% transport to obtain the inhibition efficiency.

[0352] The results showed that lesinurad inhibited uric acid transporter protein by 23.63% at a concentration of 1000 nM, while compound 6 inhibited uric acid transporter protein by 64% at a concentration of 250 nM. Therefore, the compounds of this invention exhibit good inhibitory activity against uric acid transporter protein, with higher inhibitory activity at 250 nM than that of lesinurad at 1000 nM.

[0353] Example 12: Inhibition of uric acid transporter protein by the compound

[0354] In this embodiment, a third party (Beijing Kanglong Chemical Co., Ltd.) was commissioned to use HEK-293 cells (HEK293-hURAT1) that stably expressed human uric acid transporter protein (protein name URAT1, gene name SLC22A12) as a cell model to study uric acid transport and determine the inhibitory activity of candidate compounds on human uric acid transporter protein. The concentration gradients of the test compound and positive control (Lesinurad) were prepared as in Example 10. All cell culture media were purchased from Invitrogen, and plastic products were purchased from Corning. C14-labeled uric acid was obtained from VWR (USA). Specific procedures are as follows:

[0355] Cells were pre-coated in 96-well plates. The following day, the medium was replaced with a mixture of C14-labeled uric acid and different concentrations of positive controls or other test compounds. After incubation for 5 minutes, the medium was removed, and the cells were lysed with 0.1N NaOH. The supernatant was then read using a Revvity liquid scintillation counter (MicroBeta2). The readings of wells with C14-labeled uric acid but no other compound were considered 100% uric acid transport, while the readings of wells without C14-labeled uric acid were considered background readings. The inhibitory efficiency of different concentrations of positive control compounds or test compounds on uric acid transporters was calculated to obtain the IC50.

[0356] The test results are shown in Table 3: The inhibitory activity of compound 6 of the present invention against uric acid transporters is comparable to that of the positive control (Lesinurad) under the same experimental conditions. This demonstrates that the compound of the present invention exhibits good inhibitory activity against uric acid transporters.

[0357] Table 3 shows the inhibitory effects of the compounds on uric acid transporters.

[0359] Example 13: Pharmacological test of the compound in lowering uric acid levels in the body.

[0360] In this embodiment, adult male Balb / c wild-type mice aged 8-12 weeks, provided by Vital River, were divided into a baseline group, a control group (vehicle), and a treatment group (compounds 1 and 6). The baseline group received no treatment. During gavage, the control group was given 0.5 mL of a 1.2% aqueous solution of 2-BP-β-CD (cyclodextrin), while the treatment group was given 0.5 mL of a solution of the test compound prepared with a 1.2% aqueous solution of 2-BP-β-CD (cyclodextrin). Seven hours after administration, 0.5 mL of a mixed solution containing 60 mg / mL potassium oxonate (a uricase inhibitor) and 6.67 mg / mL hypoxanthine (a substrate of xanthine oxidase) prepared with a 0.5% aqueous solution of methylcellulose was administered orally to induce hyperuricemia. One hour later, 100 μL of peripheral blood was collected from the inner orbital cavity, and serum uric acid concentration was measured using the conventional phosphotungstic acid method.

[0361] The results are as follows Figure 1 As shown, 8 hours after administration of compounds 1 and 6, serum uric acid concentration was effectively reduced to about half that of the control group.
