Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the fields of organic chemistry and medicinal chemistry, and particularly relates to a selenium-containing sulinic acid derivative and its electrochemical synthesis method. Background Technology

[0002] Sulindac, a classic nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), exerts its anti-inflammatory effects primarily by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) activity and blocking prostaglandin synthesis. Unlike traditional NSAIDs, this drug has attracted considerable attention due to its unique multi-target activity. Current research is exploring its potential value in cancer prevention, metabolic regulation, and neuroprotection. Sulindac is a prodrug that is reductively metabolized in vivo to a highly reactive sulfide, and can also be oxidized to a sulfone with increased hydrophilicity but significantly reduced activity. While its chiral sulfoxide group can reduce the lipophilicity of the parent nucleus and improve solubility, commercially available formulations are racemic. The reversible cycle between methyl sulfide and methyl sulfoxide leads to instability of the chiral center, making it difficult to accurately study the chiral effect at this site in vivo. Notably, the oxidation to sulfone is irreversible, and the inhibitory activity of this hydrophilic product on COX is significantly weakened. Therefore, the synthesis and modification of sulindac's structure to enhance its activity has long been a focus of medicinal chemists.

[0003] Currently, significant progress has been made in structural modification of sulindac at different reaction sites, resulting in the synthesis of a series of sulindac derivatives exhibiting excellent biological activity. The research primarily focuses on two strategies. The first involves the dehydration condensation reaction of the carboxyl group of sulindac with amines and alcohols using condensing reagents to construct amides and esters. The second involves the reconstruction of sulindac derivatives using aldehydes with different substitutions and the indanate skeleton. However, these activation processes often require the participation of metal reagents, equivalent oxidants, and bases, and their limited substrate scope, stringent reaction conditions, and numerous byproducts remain challenges. Particularly noteworthy is the presence of multiple olefinic structural units within the sulindac molecule, making it a highly attractive candidate substrate for derivatization research. However, direct derivatization of the olefinic skeleton of sulindac to construct sulindac derivatives is currently lacking, hindering the further clinical application of sulindac compounds.

[0004] Organic electrochemical synthesis utilizes inexpensive, readily available, and intrinsically safe electrons as redox reagents. It achieves efficient conversion by generating active intermediates through reactions of compounds on electrode surfaces, overcoming the limitations of traditional synthesis reactions that require expensive transition metal catalysts and equivalent amounts of redox reagents. Furthermore, electrochemistry offers a wide-range tunable redox potential, allowing for excellent control over reaction selectivity. Currently, our understanding of the electrochemical modification of sulindac to construct derivatives is relatively limited and requires further investigation. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a selenium-containing sulindac derivative and its electrochemical synthesis method, which exhibits anti-inflammatory effects. This invention also provides a green, mild, and efficient modular electrochemical oxidation method that can efficiently and selectively construct bifunctionalized sulindac derivatives in one step, solving the problems of multiple synthesis steps and harsh reaction conditions associated with sulindac derivative synthesis. This provides a conceptual and methodological reference for the research and development of green and inexpensive synthesis of sulindac derivatives.

[0006] This invention proposes a method for the bifunctionalization of sulindac's five-membered ring skeleton into olefins for the electrochemical synthesis of selenium-containing sulindac derivatives. This process is not only highly efficient but also highly selective. The reaction exhibits several significant advantages: (a) it can be carried out without the use of metal catalysts or bases; (b) electrons act as the sole oxidant, thus avoiding the need for stoichiometric oxidants; (c) the reaction conditions are mild, requiring no high temperatures, and it is compatible with a variety of substrates; (d) it achieves extremely high chemoselectivity in the construction of sulindac derivatives with lactone rings; and (e) the synthesized compounds, at the same dosage, show superior NO inhibition rates and regulatory abilities on inflammatory factors IL-6 and IL-1β compared to the sulindac raw material.

[0007] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0008] A selenium-containing sulinic acid derivative, with sulinic acid as the parent structure, undergoes esterification and selenization reactions on an olefin with its five-membered ring. The general chemical structural formula of the selenium-containing sulinic acid derivative is as follows:

[0009] ,

[0010] Wherein, R is selected from any one of C1 to C3 alkyl, phenyl, and substituted phenyl, and the substituent in the substituted phenyl is any one of alkyl, halogen, haloalkanes, C1 to C6 alkyl, C1 to C3 alkylthio, and cyano.

[0011] Preferably, R is selected from any one of: phenyl, p-iodophenyl, p-bromophenyl, p-trifluoromethylphenyl, p-tolyl, m-tolyl, ethyl, p-isopropylphenyl, 3,4-dimethylphenyl, o-bromophenyl, m-chlorophenyl, methyl, m-fluorophenyl, p-chlorophenyl, p-ethylphenyl, o-fluorophenyl, 2,4,6-trimethylphenyl, o-tolyl, p-cyanophenyl, o-methylthiophenyl, m-methylthiophenyl, and p-methylthiophenyl.

[0012] Specifically, the selenium-containing sulinic acid derivative is selected from the following structural formulas:

[0014] This invention also provides an electrochemical synthesis method for a selenium-containing sulinic acid derivative. The method uses sulinic acid and diselenoether compounds as starting materials, clean electrons as the oxidant, and tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate as the electrolyte. Under electrochemical conditions, firstly, the diselenoether compound is anolyxolized to generate a radical cation intermediate (A). This intermediate undergoes cleavage to produce a selenium-centered radical (B) and a selenium cation (C). The selenium cation (C) is then reduced at the cathode to regenerate the diselenoether compound for subsequent catalytic cycling. Simultaneously, sulinic acid is oxidized at the anode to form a carbon-centered radical intermediate (D). This intermediate (D) undergoes an intramolecular radical cyclization reaction to generate a carbon radical intermediate (E). Finally, the selenium-centered radical (B) and the carbon radical intermediate (E) undergo a radical-radical cross-coupling reaction to obtain the target product.

[0015] The specific steps of the electrochemical synthesis method are as follows: In an electrolytic cell, the anode and cathode are set up, and sulinic acid, diselenide compounds, electrolyte and solvent are added in sequence. The reaction is carried out under constant current conditions. After the reaction is completed, the reaction solution is collected to obtain a selenium-containing sulinic acid derivative.

[0016] Preferably, the molar ratio of sulindac, diselenyl ether compound, and electrolyte is 1:1:1, the electrolyte is tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate, and the solvent is acetonitrile.

[0017] The structural formula of the sulindac drug is: ;

[0018] The general chemical structural formula of the diselenide compounds is: RSeSeR, where R represents different substituents in the structure of the diselenide compounds and is consistent with the general chemical structural formula of the above-mentioned selenium-containing sulinic acid derivatives. For example, when the diselenide compound is a diphenyl diselenide, R is phenyl.

[0019] Preferably, the diselenide compounds are selected from: diphenyldiselenide, 1,2-di-p-iodophenyldiselenide, 1,2-di-p-bromophenyldiselenide, 1,2-di-p-trifluoromethylphenyldiselenide, 1,2-di-p-tolyldiselenide, 1,2-di-m-tolyldiselenide, diethyldiselenide, 1,2-di-p-isopropylphenyldiselenide, 1,2-bis(3,4-xylyl)diselenide, 1,2-di-o-bromophenyldiselenide, 1,2-di-m-chlorophenyldiselenide, 1,2-dimethyldiselenide, 1,2-di-m-fluorophenyldiselenide, 1,2-di-p-chlorophenyldiselenide, 1,2-di-p-ethylphenyldiselenide, 1,2-di-o-fluorophenyldiselenide, 1,2-di(2,4-dichlorophenyldiselenide) Any one of 4,6-trimethylyl)diselenoether, 1,2-di-o-methylyldiselenoether, 1,2-di-p-cyanophenyldiselenoether, 1,2-di-o-methylthiophenyldiselenoether, 1,2-di-m-methylthiophenyldiselenoether, and 1,2-di-p-methylthiophenyldiselenoether.

[0020] Preferably, the anode is a carbon rod and the cathode is a platinum sheet.

[0021] Preferably, the constant current is 12-15 mA and the reaction time is 6.5-12 h. More preferably, the constant current is 15 mA and the reaction time is 6.5 h.

[0022] Preferably, in the above electrochemical synthesis method, after the reaction is completed, the reaction solution is concentrated and purified by column chromatography to obtain a selenium-containing sulinic acid derivative. The column chromatography conditions are: petroleum ether / ethyl acetate = 5 / 1, volume ratio.

[0023] The present invention also provides the application of the selenium-containing sulindac derivative in the preparation of anti-inflammatory drugs.

[0024] The present invention also provides a pharmaceutical formulation comprising the said selenium-containing sulindac derivative, and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or excipients.

[0025] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0026] 1. The selenium-containing sulindac derivative obtained in this invention has significant anti-inflammatory effects. Under the same dosage, the NO inhibition rate of the synthesized compound and its ability to regulate inflammatory factors IL-6 and IL-1β are superior to those of sulindac raw material.

[0027] 2. This invention uses electrochemical oxidation, utilizing clean electrons as oxidizing agents, to achieve for the first time the activation of the bifunctional group of the five-membered ring olefin skeleton of sulinic acid in the absence of metals, external oxidants, and equivalent bases, thereby constructing a series of selenized five-membered ring lactone compounds with high selectivity and efficiency.

[0028] 3. This invention solves the problems of traditional synthesis of sulindac active molecules, such as multiple steps, harsh reaction conditions, difficult synthesis routes, and the need for pre-functional group activation of substrates. At the same time, it can avoid the use of a large amount of expensive transition metal catalysts and equivalent oxidizing agents in the synthesis process. Most importantly, this method can control the site selectivity of the reaction under mild conditions, providing ideas and methodological references for the green and inexpensive synthesis of selenium-containing sulindac derivatives.

[0212] II. Anti-inflammatory activity experiments of the compounds

[0213] (I) Experimental Methods

[0214] 1. Cell Culture and Passaging

[0215] RAW264.7 mouse macrophage cell line was cultured in DMEM high-glucose complete medium containing 20% ​​fetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin-streptomycin, and incubated at 37°C, 5% CO2, and saturated humidity. Cells were passaged every 2-3 days at a passage ratio of 1:3.

[0216] 2. Effect of the compound on RAW264.7 cell viability determined by CCK-8 assay

[0217] The effect of selenium-containing sulindac derivatives on the viability of RAW264.7 cells was evaluated using the CCK-8 assay. A normal control group, a sulindac group, and a concentration gradient (20 μmol / L) of the drug were included in 96-well plates, with three replicates for each group. RAW264.7 cells in logarithmic growth phase were inoculated at 5 × 10⁻⁶ cells / well. 5 Cells were seeded at a density of 100 μL / well and cultured for 24 h until adherence. The culture medium was then discarded. The drug-treated group was treated with medium containing 20 μmol / L selenium-containing sulindac derivative, the sulindac group with medium containing 20 μmol / L sulindac, and the normal group with 1% serum-containing medium (100 μL / well for all groups). After culturing at 37℃ and 5% CO2 for 24 h, 10 μL of CCK-8 solution was added to each well for an additional 4 h of incubation. OD values ​​were measured at 450 nm using a microplate reader, and cell viability was calculated using the formula: Cell viability (%) = (OD of drug-treated group or sulindac group / OD of normal group) × 100%.

[0218] The experimental results are shown in Table 1, indicating that most selenium-containing sulindac derivatives did not exhibit cytotoxicity under the condition of 20 μmol / L. Among them, compounds 4, 7, and 12 showed some degree of cell damage and could be used as drugs by reducing the dosage.

[0219] Table 1. Evaluation of the viability of selenium-containing sulindac derivatives in 20 μmol / L RAW264.7 cells using the CCK-8 assay.

[0220]

[0221] 3. NO assay kit was used to detect and determine the inhibitory effect of the compound on the inflammatory factor NO in LPS (lipopolysaccharide)-stimulated RAW264.7 cells.

[0222] An LPS-induced inflammation model was used in RAW264.7 cells. Sulindac (20 μmol / L) was used as a positive control to evaluate the inhibitory effect of a selenium-containing sulindac derivative (20 μmol / L) on NO production. Logarithmic growth phase RAW264.7 cells were cultured at 3 × 10⁻⁶ cells per cell line. 5 Inoculated at a density of 100 cells / mL into 12-well plates and cultured for 24 h until adherence was achieved. Then, control groups, model groups, sulindac groups, and drug-treated groups (containing selenium-sulindac derivatives) were established (each with 3 replicates). The culture medium was discarded, and each group was pretreated with 500 μL of the corresponding drug or culture medium for 2 h. Except for the control group, all other groups were treated with LPS solution at a final concentration of 100 ng / mL and cultured for another 18 h. The supernatant was collected, and the NO concentration was determined according to the NO kit instructions. The NO formation rate was calculated using the formula: NO formation rate (%) = (NO concentration in the drug-treated group or sulindac group or normal group / NO concentration in the model group) × 100%.

[0223] The experimental results are shown in Table 2. The selenium-containing sulindac derivatives significantly improved the NO inhibition effect of the active pharmaceutical ingredient sulindac under the condition of 20 μmol / L. Compounds 4, 7, and 12 have trace amounts of toxicity, which may have inhibited the NO generation rate.

[0224] Table 2. Inhibition effect of selenium-containing sulindac derivatives on NO at 20 μmol / L

[0225]

[0226] 4. RT-qPCR was used to determine the levels of pro-inflammatory factors TNF-α (tumor necrosis factor), IL-1β (interleukin-1β), and IL-6 (interleukin-6) in LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells.

[0227] An LPS-induced inflammation model was used in RAW264.7 cells, with sulindac (20 μmol / L) as a positive control, to evaluate the effect of a selenium-containing sulindac derivative (20 μmol / L) on the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokine mRNA. Logarithmically growing RAW264.7 cells were cultured at 5 × 10⁻⁶ cells per cell line. 5Cells were seeded at a density of 1 cell / mL in 6-well plates (2 mL / well). After 24 h of culture, the cells adhered to the plates. Then, a normal control group, a model group, a positive control group (sulindac), and a drug-treated group (containing a selenium-containing sulindac derivative) were established. The culture medium was discarded, and each group was pretreated with 2 mL of the corresponding drug or culture medium for 2 h. Except for the normal control group, all other groups were added to LPS solution at a final concentration of 100 ng / mL and cultured for another 18 h. Cells were collected, and total RNA was extracted using the SteadyPure kit. After purity testing with NanoDrop 2000 (A260 / A280 = 1.8–2.0), cDNA was obtained by reverse transcription using the 5X Evo M-MLV kit (stored at -20 °C). qPCR was performed using SYBR Green Pro taq HS premixed reagent: the reaction system contained 10 μL of 2×Premix, 0.4 μL each of forward and reverse primers (10 μM), 2 μL of cDNA, and ddH2O to a final volume of 20 μL; the reaction program was 95 ℃ for 30 s (pre-denaturation), followed by 40 cycles of 95 ℃ for 5 s and 60 ℃ for 30 s, and the melting curve was analyzed.

[0228] The relative expression levels of the target genes were calculated using the 2^(-ΔΔCt) method, with β-actin as an internal reference. The experimental results are shown in Tables 3 and 4. For the inflammatory factor IL-6, the selenium-containing sulindac derivative at a concentration of 20 μmol / L significantly downregulated its level compared to the model group, and showed a better inhibitory effect than the positive control drug sulindac (20 μmol / L). For the inflammatory factor IL-1β, the selenium-containing sulindac derivative at 20 μmol / L also showed a better downregulation ability than sulindac. In addition, for the inflammatory factor TNF-α, although the selenium-containing sulindac derivative could downregulate at a concentration of 20 μmol / L, its downregulation ability was not significant compared to IL-6 and IL-1β.
