Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention pertains to the field of medicinal chemistry, specifically relating to a cyclic peptide compound, its preparation method, and its uses. Background Technology
[0002] Acinetobacter baumannii is a Gram-negative, aerobic, non-fermenting bacterium that has been considered an emerging pathogen in recent years, with very limited treatment options. This bacterium is listed as part of the so-called "ESKAPE" group of pathogens on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) list of serious threats. These pathogens are currently the leading cause of most hospital-acquired infections and are highly resistant to antimicrobial agents.
[0003] Acinetobacter baumannii is commonly found in intensive care and surgical wards. Extensive antibiotic use has led to resistance selection against all known antimicrobial agents, and it can cause a variety of infections, including bacteremia, pneumonia, meningitis, urinary tract infections, and wound infections. Acinetobacter baumannii exhibits an unusual ability to upregulate and acquire resistance determinants and demonstrates environmental persistence, making this organism a frequent cause of infection outbreaks and a hospital-acquired pathogen.
[0004] Treatment of multidrug-resistant (MDR) Acinetobacter baumannii infections becomes extremely difficult, if not impossible, due to resistance to most available antibiotics, particularly carbapenems, resulting in high mortality rates and increased morbidity and length of stay in intensive care units.
[0005] The Antimicrobial Availability Task Force (AATF) of the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA) defines Acinetobacter baumannii as "a prime example of the mismatch between unmet medical needs and the current antimicrobial research and development pipeline." Therefore, there is an urgent need to identify compounds suitable for treating diseases and infections caused by Acinetobacter baumannii.
[0006] Recently, Claudia et al. (Nature 2024, 625, 566-571) reported cyclic peptide compounds for the treatment of Gram-negative bacteria such as Acinetobacter baumannii, but there remains a high unmet need for improved compounds suitable for treating diseases and infections caused by Acinetobacter baumannii, as the microorganisms proliferate very rapidly and are prone to developing resistance (J. Med. Chem. 2024, 67, 10, 7759-7787).
[0007] Therefore, there is an urgent need in the field for a cyclic peptide compound that is effective, safe, and unlikely to induce drug resistance to meet the clinical needs for treating Gram-negative bacteria (such as Acinetobacter baumannii). Summary of the Invention

[0093] Through long-term and in-depth research and extensive screening, the inventors have developed for the first time a novel cyclic peptide compound that is highly effective, safe, and unlikely to induce drug resistance. This compound can be used to prepare drugs for treating infections and diseases caused by bacteria. Based on this, the inventors completed this invention.
[0094] definition Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. Although similar or equivalent methods and materials described herein may be used in the practice or testing of this invention, suitable methods and materials are described below.
[0095] Features, integers, properties, compounds, chemical parts, or groups described in connection with a particular aspect, embodiment, or example of the invention should be understood to be applicable to any other aspect, embodiment, or example described herein, unless incompatible therewith. All features disclosed in this specification (including any appended claims or abstract) and / or all steps of any method or process so disclosed may be combined in any combination, unless at least some of such features and / or steps are mutually exclusive combinations. The invention is not limited to the details of any of the foregoing embodiments. The invention extends to any new feature or any new combination of features disclosed in this specification (including any appended claims or abstract), or to any new step or any new combination of steps of any method or process so disclosed.
[0096] All publications, patent applications, patents and other references mentioned in this article are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety.
[0097] Unless otherwise stated, the nomenclature used in this application is based on the IUPAC systematic nomenclature, and IUPAC chemical names are generated using InDraw.
[0098] Active ingredients As used herein, “compound of the present invention” means a compound of formula (I), and also includes its stereoisomers, its optical isomers, its pharmaceutically acceptable salts, its crystal forms, its isotopic derivatives, its prodrugs, its metabolites, its solvates or hydrates thereof.
[0099] Unless otherwise specified, the structural formulas described in this invention are intended to include all stereoisomers (such as cis-trans isomers, enantiomers, diastereomers, and conformational isomers): R and S configurations containing an asymmetric center, (Z) and (E) isomers of double bonds, cis-trans isomers of cycloalkanes, etc. Therefore, any single stereochemical isomer of the compounds of this invention, or a mixture of its enantiomers, diastereomers, or conformational isomers, is within the scope of this invention.
[0100] The compounds of this invention may contain cis-trans isomers, one or more chiral carbon atoms, and thus can produce cis-trans isomers, chiral isomers, enantiomers, diastereomers, and other combinations of stereoisomers. Cis-trans isomerism refers to the diastereomeric phenomenon in which different functional groups in a compound molecule are arranged differently in space due to a restrictive factor that allows for free rotation. This restrictive factor is generally caused by non-rotating functional groups in the structure of organic compounds, such as C=C double bonds, C=N double bonds, C=S double bonds, N=N double bonds, heterocycles, or cycloalkanes. Organic molecules containing such isomers, such as alkenes, azo compounds, and cycloalkanes, are considered cis-trans isomers. Cis refers to the same ligands being in adjacent positions, generally denoted by "cis" or "cis-"; trans refers to the same ligands being in diagonal positions, generally denoted by "trans" or "trans-". Each chiral carbon atom can be defined as (R)- or (S)- based on stereochemistry. This invention aims to include all possible isomers, their racemic and optically pure forms. The compounds of this invention can be prepared using racemic, cis-trans, chiral, diastereomer, or enantiomers as starting materials or intermediates. Optically active isomers can be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral reagents, or resolved using conventional techniques, such as crystallization and chiral chromatography.
[0101] Conventional techniques for preparing / separating individual optical isomers (i.e., cis-trans isomers and chiral isomers) include chiral synthesis from suitable cis-trans precursors or optically pure precursors, or resolution of racemates (or racemates of salts or derivatives) using, for example, chiral high-performance liquid chromatography.
[0102] To design the synthesis of a specific stereoisomer of the compound of this invention, it can be prepared asymmetrically or derivatized with a chiral auxiliary. The resulting stereo mixture is then separated, and the chiral auxiliary is removed to obtain pure cis-trans monomers, chiral monomers, or mixed stereoisomers. If the molecule contains a cis-trans isomer center, it can be purified by column chromatography (normal-phase silica gel column or reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatography) to obtain pure cis or trans products. Alternatively, if the molecule contains a basic functional group, such as an amino acid, or an acidic functional group, such as a carboxyl group, it can be formed with a suitable optically active acid or base to form a diastereomeric salt, which is then separated by conventional methods such as separation crystallization or chromatography to obtain pure enantiomers.
[0103] This invention also includes isotopically labeled compounds (i.e., isotopic derivatives), equivalent to the original compounds disclosed herein. However, in practice, it is common for one or more atoms to be replaced by atoms with different atomic weights or mass numbers. Examples of isotopes in the isotopic derivatives of this invention include hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorus, sulfur, fluorine, and chlorine isotopes, respectively as follows: 2 H, 3 H, 13 C 11 C 14 C 15 N、 18 O、 17 O、 31 P, 32 P, 35 S, 18 F and 36 Cl. Isotope derivatives of the compounds of this invention are all within the scope of protection of this invention. In this document, 3 H-labeled compounds and 14 C-labeled compounds are useful in tissue distribution experiments of drugs and substrates. Tritium (i.e., 3 H) and carbon-14 (i.e. 14 C) Labeled compounds are relatively easy to prepare and detect, making them the preferred choice among isotopes. Furthermore, heavier isotope substitutions, such as deuterium (2H), are preferred in certain cases due to their excellent metabolic stability, which offers advantages in some therapies, such as increasing half-life or reducing dosage in vivo. Isotope-labeled compounds can be prepared using general methods by replacing non-isotopic reagents with readily available isotope-labeling reagents, as described in the examples.

Example 1. Antimicrobial susceptibility test The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) method in microbroth was used in this experiment to determine the in vitro antimicrobial activity of the compound.
[0175] For MIC determination, a stock solution of the compound was prepared freshly at 10x the desired highest concentration (i.e., 1280 mg / L) by reconstructing the dried compound in 50:50 water:DMSO.
[0176] Untreated polystyrene 96-well microtiter plates were used to prepare groups containing compounds serially diluted twice to twice the final test concentration (e.g., from 64 to 0.06 μg / ml) in cationic-regulated Mueller Hinton broth medium (CAMHB).
[0177] Inoculum was prepared using the "direct colony suspension method". Colonies of Acinetobacter baumannii ATCC19606 or clinical isolates were suspended in saline solution, adjusted to 0.5 McFarland, diluted 100-fold in CAMHB broth, and 50 μl was added to each well (final concentration per well: ~5 x 10⁵ CFU / ml and final volume per well: 100 μl). The microtiter plate was sealed and incubated at 35 ± 2 °C.
[0178] After 2 hours of incubation, the MIC value was read and recorded as the lowest concentration of antimicrobial agent that inhibited more than or equal to 80% of microbial growth (as detected by naked eye or using a microtiter plate densitometer (OD 600nm)).
[0179] Table 1 provides the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MIC, ug / mL) obtained against Acinetobacter baumannii strains ATCC19606 and ATCC 17978. Example 2.
