AI Technical Summary
Current technologies lack hangover remedies and liver-protecting drugs with clear targets, good safety profiles, and well-defined pharmacological effects. They are also unable to effectively remove toxic aldehydes produced during alcohol metabolism, resulting in poor treatment outcomes for diseases such as alcoholic liver disease.
A new class of small molecule compounds or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts with ALDH2 agonist activity have been developed to scavenge acetaldehyde and other aldehydes by promoting the action of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) agonists, thereby reducing damage to hepatocytes.
This compound significantly enhances the activity of ALDH2, effectively removes toxic aldehydes during alcohol metabolism, protects the liver, and prevents and treats alcoholic liver disease. It can be used in oral, parenteral, or topical preparations and is suitable for alcohol-related diseases such as acute alcohol poisoning and alcoholic liver disease.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of medicinal chemistry, specifically relating to a class of acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) agonists, their preparation methods, and their uses for hangover relief and liver protection. Background Technology
[0002] Alcoholic beverages, containing ethanol (i.e., alcohol), are widely consumed globally. It is noteworthy that even small amounts of alcohol consumption pose health risks, and alcohol abuse has become a major global public health issue threatening public health and quality of life.
[0003] The liver, as the core organ of alcohol metabolism, is also the primary target organ for its toxic effects. Nearly 90% of ingested alcohol is absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract and accumulates in the liver, where it is converted to acetaldehyde by alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH), then to acetic acid by aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2), and finally broken down into carbon dioxide and water, or participates in some biosynthetic processes. In addition, alcohol can also be metabolized via alternative pathways such as cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYP2E1) and catalase. The CYP2E1 pathway is particularly crucial—this process is accompanied by the generation of large amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS). These free radicals can attack polyunsaturated fatty acids in cell membranes, inducing a lipid peroxidation cascade reaction, leading to the excessive accumulation of highly electrophilic reactive aldehydes such as 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) and malondialdehyde (MDA). These toxic aldehydes can form adducts with proteins, DNA, and lipid molecules, causing persistent damage to hepatocytes. As a key rate-limiting enzyme in alcohol metabolism, ALDH2 not only removes acetaldehyde but also efficiently metabolizes reactive aldehydes such as 4-HNE and MDA, converting them into non-toxic carboxylic acids, thereby playing a protective role in the liver. Enhancing the activity of this enzyme is expected to fundamentally accelerate the clearance of toxic aldehydes and alleviate the harmful effects of alcohol on the body.
[0004] Short-term heavy drinking can trigger acute alcohol poisoning (AAI), while long-term continuous intake can induce the development of chronic alcoholic liver disease (ALD). The pathological process typically begins with simple fatty liver, gradually evolving into alcoholic hepatitis, liver fibrosis, and even cirrhosis; this series of pathological changes is collectively referred to as alcoholic disease. However, this field currently lacks specific therapeutic targets, and clinical interventions are mostly limited to symptomatic treatment. For example, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant drugs such as thioproline, glutathione, and silymarin are used to intervene in ALD, or hepatoprotective agents are combined with adjuvant drugs such as wakefulness promoters and sedatives in AAI treatment. While these approaches can alleviate clinical symptoms to some extent, they are insufficient to fundamentally eliminate toxic substances. With increasing public health awareness, scientific drinking has gradually become a social focus, and the huge market demand has spurred a large number of functional foods and health products marketed as "hangover relief and liver protection." However, most of these products have unclear mechanisms of action and lack systematic pharmacodynamic validation.
[0005] Against this backdrop, we aim to develop a class of hangover-relieving and liver-protecting drugs with clear targets, good safety profiles, and well-defined pharmacological effects to meet the clinical needs for the prevention and treatment of alcoholic diseases.
[0006] In summary, there is an urgent need in the field for a drug compound with ALDH2 agonist activity. Summary of the Invention
