Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to compounds that enhance mitochondrial function, pharmaceutical compositions containing said compounds, and the therapeutic use of said compounds, particularly in the treatment of diseases caused by or affected by mitochondrial dysfunction. Background Technology
[0002] Mitochondria are complex intracellular organelles that play a crucial role in cellular homeostasis. Mitochondria, responsible for coordinating cellular energy production, are essential for sustaining life [Osellame 2012]. Chemical energy is produced by mitochondria through oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) and stored as adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is produced by mitochondria through a variety of chemical reactions collectively known as the Krebs cycle, or tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. This complex set of cellular reactions is driven by the proton gradient across the inner mitochondrial membrane [Papa 2012]. In addition to supplying energy, mitochondria are involved in a variety of other processes, such as cell signaling, calcium regulation, cell differentiation, and cell death regulation [Finkel et al., Circulation Research. 2015;116:1810-1819; McBride 2006].
[0003] Oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) is a metabolic pathway responsible for producing most of the cell's energy. The human mitochondrial genome contains the genetic code for 13 proteins, all of which encode essential components of OXPHOS. The OXPHOS system consists of five multi-protein complexes, individual subunits of which are encoded by the mitochondrial or nuclear genome [Smeitink 2001]. This complex series of biochemical reactions converts the transmembrane electrochemical proton gradient energy into mechanical energy via ATP synthase, ultimately catalyzing the chemical bond between ADP and phosphate (P) to form ATP [Friedman 2014].
[0004] Free radicals generated during ATP synthesis can cause DNA damage, making mitochondrial DNA more susceptible to damage than DNA in other cells. Mitochondria lack all the protective mechanisms responsible for preventing DNA damage found in other cellular systems. Furthermore, gene mutations can lead to reduced mitochondrial production. All these factors contribute to decreased mitochondrial activity. Mitochondrial abnormalities, characterized by decreased mitochondrial function and the accumulation of damaged mitochondria, have been observed in various cell types and tissues. Some diseases may be caused by mutations or deletions in the mitochondrial genome, while others may be caused by disorders of the mitochondrial respiratory system or other mitochondrial functional impairments [Wallace 1999]. In patients with mtDNA mutations, genetic and clinical manifestations are further complicated by the presence of multiple mtDNA genomes in individual cells, resulting in a mixture of mutant and wild-type genomes (heterogeneity) in the same cell or tissue [Stewart 2015].
[0005] Mitochondrial disorders are common genetic disorders of energy metabolism, affecting approximately one in 5,000 people. These disorders are typically incurable and exhibit genetic and clinical heterogeneity [DiMauro 2008]. This heterogeneous group of disorders can manifest as encephalopathy, myopathy, or multiple organ syndrome in children or adults. The disorders are characterized by insufficient activity of one or more mitochondrial respiratory chain (RC) complexes involved in OXPHOS [complexes I (CI) to V] and / or reduced levels of OXPHOS complex homeostasis, leading to decreased ATP production [Nsiah-Sefaa 2016]. The disorders are most commonly caused by genetic mutations in the mitochondrial or nuclear genome, exhibiting clinical heterogeneity and phenotypic diversity, all of which involve OXPHOS deficiency and impaired ATP synthesis. Furthermore, the presence of mtDNA in all human tissues implies dysfunction in multiple organ systems. The most commonly affected organ systems are the nervous, muscular, cardiac, and endocrine systems. Regardless of phenotypic presentation, all mitochondrial disorders can be considered defects in energy metabolism and cellular function [Schaefer 2004].
[0006] Mitochondrial myopathy is a clinically heterogeneous disease that can affect multiple systems beyond skeletal muscle, and it is usually defined by morphological abnormalities of muscle mitochondria. These represent the largest subset of primary mitochondrial diseases, making them the most common congenital metabolic disorders [DiMauro 2008]. Mitochondrial myopathy associated with mitochondrial export dysfunction has been identified in several ways, including: mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and stroke-like episode (MELAS), one of the most common maternally inherited mitochondrial diseases [Lin 2014]; myoclonic epilepsy and ragged-red fibers (MERRF), in which 80-90% of patients carry mutations in the tRNALys gene in mtDNA, leading to low ATP production efficiency [Wu 2010]; and mitochondrial DNA-associated Leigh syndrome and neurogenic muscle weakness, ataxia, and retinitis pigmentosa (NARP), which are part of a series of progressive neurodegenerative diseases caused by abnormal mitochondrial energy production [Thorburn 2017]. Lechner syndrome is a devastating neurodegenerative disease characterized by multiple pathogenic mutations in mitochondrial and nuclear genes encoding OXPHOS components [Baertling 2014]; mitochondrial dysfunction in fatty acid oxidation disorders (such as long-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (LCHAD)) [Olpin 2005, Wajner 2016]; Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is a congenital metabolic disorder that leads to the accumulation of DNA damage and corresponding mitochondrial dysfunction [Strand 2014]; Luft disease is clinically characterized by hypermetabolism and is caused by extensive uncoupling of mitochondrial respiration in skeletal muscle tissue [Luft 1994]; Chronic progressive external ophthalmoplegia (CPEO), also known as progressive external ophthalmoplegia (PEO), is a disease characterized by slow, progressive paralysis of the external ophthalmoscopy muscles [Luft 1994, [Man 2005]; Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2;CMT2), in which mutations in the mitochondrial fusion protein 2 gene (MFN2) may account for at least one-third of cases, and reduced oxidative phosphorylation efficiency in MFN2-associated CMT2 may contribute to the pathophysiology of axonal neuropathy [Züchner 2004, Loiseau 2007]; Leber hereditary optic neuropathy (LHON), a primary mtDNA disorder characterized by vision loss in young adults [Luft 1994]; hereditary conditions such as Kearns-Sayre syndrome (KSS) [Pieczenik 2007], myoneurogenic gastrointestinal encephalopathy (MNGIE) [Pieczenik 2007], and Barth syndrome (an X-linked cardiomyopathy caused by mutations in tafazzin) [Gonzalvez].
[2013] , all are related to mitochondrial dysfunction. Furthermore, mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome (MDS) is a group of genetically and clinically heterogeneous autosomal recessive disorders characterized by a significant reduction in mtDNA content, leading to impaired energy production in affected tissues and organs. These disorders include TK2-related disorders and POLG-related disorders [El-Hattab 2013].
[0007] In addition, mitochondrial mutations are associated with mitochondrial dysfunction in the following areas: maternally inherited epilepsy / mitochondrial tubulointerstitial kidney disease (MITKD) [Connor 2017]; mitochondrial deafness (DEAF) [Kototas 2007]; ataxia, myoclonus, and deafness (AMDF) [Park 2014]; hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) [Lucas 2003]; diabetes mellitus with deafness (DMDF) [Hutchin 200]; maternally inherited diabetes mellitus with deafness (MIDD) [Tsang 2018]; mitochondrial syndrome-related sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) [Forli 2007]; focal segmental glomerulosclerosis associated with mitochondrial disease (FSGS) [Lim 2017]; autism spectrum disorder (ASD)
[2012] ; and progressive encephalopathy (PEM) [Kollberg].
[2006] ; Bilateral striatal necrosis (BSN) [Solano 2003]; Leber's hereditary optic neuropathy and dystonia (LDYT)
[2021] ; Maternally inherited cardiomyopathy (MICM) [Casali 1999]; Motor neuron disease (MND)
[2020] ; Myoclonic epilepsy / spasmodic epilepsy [Lamperti 2016]; Mitochondrial myopathy, lactic acidosis and sideroblastic anemia (MLASA)
[2014] ; Familial bilateral striatal necrosis (FBSN) [Thyagarajan 1995]; Epilepsy, stroke, optic atrophy and cognitive decline (Epilepsy, stroke, optatrophy, and cognitive decline; ESOC)
[2001] .
[0008] Mitochondrial dysfunction is not only a hallmark of rare, inherited mitochondrial disorders, but it is also associated with age-related diseases, including neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), and Alzheimer's disease [Johri 2021]; metabolic disorders such as type 2 diabetes [Lowell 2005]; steatosis and non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) [Begriche 2006]; and obesity [Bournat 2010]. Furthermore, heart diseases (such as ischemia-reperfusion, ischemic preconditioning, cardiomyopathy, and heart failure) [Lesnefsky 2001], as well as muscular dystrophy [Ryu 2016] and aging [Cui 2012] are all associated with mitochondrial dysfunction.
[0009] Cellular energy deficiency caused by mitochondrial dysfunction is a hallmark of mitochondrial diseases. This increases the likelihood of pharmacologically increasing cellular mitochondrial content to enhance mitochondrial ATP production, as occurs in motor responses [Komen 2014]. A potential therapeutic approach to overcome impaired mitochondrial biogenesis is to effectively promote mitochondrial biogenesis through pharmacological means to compensate for OXPHOS deficiencies associated with mitochondrial respiratory dysfunction, thereby enriching the wild-type mitochondrial population [Wenz 2010, Moraes 2009]. Therefore, strategies aimed at improving mitochondrial function may provide an effective therapy for patients with mitochondrial diseases. It has been demonstrated that pharmacological stimulation of several proteins can improve mitochondrial biogenesis and function, such as pharmacological activation of transcriptional coactivator (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-α (PGC-1α)) [Sandoval-Acuna 2014]; agonist activation of a combination of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR) and deoxyribonucleoside (dN) has been shown to increase mtDNA copy number and mitochondrial mass, thereby improving mitochondrial respiratory function in a cellular MELAS model [Burgin 2020]; and AMPK-activating compounds have been shown to promote mitochondrial function by increasing the expression of genes involved in mitochondrial biogenesis [Herzig 2018]. Compounds such as nicotinamide nucleoside have been shown to increase mitochondrial biogenesis and systemic metabolism [Kahn 2014], and nicotinamide mononucleotide has been shown to improve age-related phenotypes in mice, including changes in energy metabolism and increased physical activity, by increasing NAD+ levels [Mills 2016]. Furthermore, compounds that enhance NAD, such as PARP inhibitors [Felici 2014] and CD38 inhibitors [Escande 2013], as well as compounds that interact with NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1), have been shown to improve mitochondrial quality and OXPHOS in cellular models of mitochondrial dysfunction [Seo, Kang-Sik 2018]. These findings in cell and mouse models with different mitochondrial defects support strategies to improve diseases characterized by abnormal mitochondrial biology by increasing mitochondrial quality.
[0010] Therefore, it would be beneficial to develop compounds that can increase cellular mitochondrial activity, for example, by increasing mitochondrial mass. Summary of the Invention

[0124] definition Unless the context otherwise indicates, references to “carbocyclic” and “heterocyclic” groups as used herein shall include both aromatic and non-aromatic systems. Thus, by way of example, the term “carbocyclic and heterocyclic groups” in its scope includes aromatic, non-aromatic, unsaturated, partially saturated, and fully saturated carbocyclic and heterocyclic systems.
[0125] The carbocyclic or heterocyclic group may be aryl or heteroaryl. Aryl or heteroaryl may be monocyclic or bicyclic as defined herein. As used herein, the term "aryl" refers to a carbocyclic group with aromatic characteristics, and the term "heteroaryl" is used herein to refer to a heterocyclic group with aromatic characteristics. Where the context permits, the terms "aryl" and "heteroaryl" may cover bicyclic systems in which both rings are aromatic, or one ring is non-aromatic and the other is aromatic. In such bicyclic systems containing one aromatic and one non-aromatic group, the group may be linked by an aromatic ring or by a non-aromatic ring.
[0126] The term "non-aromatic group" refers to unsaturated ring systems, partially saturated, and fully saturated carbocyclic and heterocyclic systems that do not possess aromatic characteristics. The terms "unsaturated" and "partially saturated" refer to ring structures containing atoms sharing more than one valence bond; for example, the ring contains at least one multiple bond, such as a C=C=C bond. The term "saturated" refers to a ring structure where no multiple bonds exist between the ring atoms. Saturated carbocyclic groups include cycloalkyl groups: cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, and cycloheptyl. Partially saturated carbocyclic groups include cycloalkenyl groups: cyclopentenyl, cyclohexenyl, cycloheptenyl, and cyclooctenyl. Non-aromatic heterocyclic groups include aziridine, pyrrolidine, piperidine, aziridine, piperazine, morpholine, thiomorpholine, thiomorpholine S-oxide and S,S-dioxide, pyran (2H-pyran or 4H-pyran), dihydrothiophene, dihydropyran, dihydrofuran, dihydrothiazole, tetrahydrofuran, tetrahydrothiophene, dioxane, tetrahydropyran, tetrahydrothiopyran, S-oxide, SS-dioxide, imidazoline, imidazolidinone, oxazoline, thiazoline, pyrazoline, and pyrazolidine.
[0127] Unless otherwise stated, the term "hydrocarbyl" as used herein refers to an aliphatic, alicyclic, aromatic, and acyclic group having an all-carbon backbone and consisting of carbon and hydrogen atoms. Examples of hydrocarbyl groups include alkyl, cycloalkyl, cycloalkenyl, carbocyclic aryl, alkenyl, ynyl, cycloalkylalkyl, cycloalkenylalkyl, and carbocyclic aralkyl, arylenyl, and aryynyl. Such groups may be unsubstituted or, where specified, substituted with one or more substituents as defined herein. In some cases, as defined herein, one or more, but not all, of the carbon atoms in a hydrocarbyl group may be substituted with another atom or group of atoms. Hydrocarbyl groups may be saturated or unsaturated.
[0128] The claims of this application should be understood to cover only stable compounds. The claims are not intended to cover any combination of groups that would produce unstable compounds. For example, if the definition of protection covers a compound having OO or ON bonds, it should be understood that this compound is not intended to be protected because it is not a stable compound.
[0129] Salt The compounds of the present invention as defined in embodiments 1.1 to 1.109, 1.111 and 1.112 may be presented in the form of salts.
[0130] The salts mentioned above (and also defined in implementation schemes 1.107, 1.108 and 1.109) are generally acid addition salts.
[0131] It can be done through conventional chemical methods, such as Pharmaceutical Salts: Properties, Selection, and Use P. Heinrich Stahl (ed.), Camille G. Wermuth (ed.), ISBN: 3-90639-026-8, Hardcover, 388 pages, August 2002. The method described herein is for the synthesis of salts from affinistic compounds. Generally, such salts can be prepared by reacting a compound in its free base form with an acid in water or an organic solvent or a mixture thereof; typically, non-aqueous media such as ether, ethyl acetate, ethanol, isopropanol, or acetonitrile are used.
[0132] Alternatively, a salt may be formed during the synthesis and subsequent separation of the compound (1).
[0133] Acid addition salts (as defined in Embodiment 1.108) can be formed from a variety of acids (inorganic and organic acids). Examples of acid addition salts include salts formed from acids selected from the group consisting of: acetic acid, 2,2-dichloroacetic acid, adipic acid, alginic acid, ascorbic acid (e.g., L-ascorbic acid), L-aspartic acid, benzenesulfonic acid, benzoic acid, 4-acetamidobenzoic acid, butyric acid, (+)camphoric acid, camphorsulfonic acid, (+)-(1S)-camphor-10-sulfonic acid, decanoic acid, hexanoic acid, octanoic acid, cinnamic acid, citric acid, cyclohexane, dodecyl sulfate, ethane-1,2-disulfonic acid, ethanesulfonic acid, 2-hydroxyethanesulfonic acid, formic acid, fumaric acid, galactopyric acid, gentian acid, glucoheponic acid, D-gluconic acid, glucuronic acid (e.g., D-glucuronic acid), glutamic acid (e.g., L-glutamic acid), α-oxo- Glutamic acid, glycolic acid, hippuric acid, hydrobromic acid, hydrochloric acid, hydroiodic acid, hydroxyethanesulfonic acid, (+)-L-lactic acid, (±)-DL-lactic acid, lactobionic acid, maleic acid, malic acid, (-)-L-malic acid, malonic acid, (±)-DL-mandelic acid, methanesulfonic acid, naphthalene-2-sulfonic acid, naphthalene-1,5-disulfonic acid, 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid, nicotinic acid, nitric acid, oleic acid, orotic acid, oxalic acid, palmitic acid, dihydroxynaphthoic acid, phosphoric acid, propionic acid, L-pyroglutamic acid, salicylic acid, 4-amino-salicylic acid, sebacic acid, stearic acid, succinic acid, sulfuric acid, tannic acid, (+)-L-tartaric acid, thiocyanate, p-toluenesulfonic acid, undecenoic acid and valeric acid, as well as acylated amino acids and cation exchange resins.
[0134] The salt forms of the compounds of this invention are generally pharmaceutically acceptable salts (Embodiment 1.109), and examples of pharmaceutically acceptable salts are discussed in Berge et al., 1977, "Pharmaceutically Acceptable Salts". J. Pharm. Sci.,Volume 66, pp. 1-19. However, non-pharmaceutically acceptable salts can also be prepared as intermediates, which can then be converted into pharmaceutically acceptable salts. Such non-pharmaceutically acceptable salt forms, applicable for, for example, the purification or isolation of the compounds of the present invention, also form part of this invention.
[0135] The ability of a given compound of the present invention to form a stable acid addition salt will depend in part on the basicity of the free base form of the compound and the acidity of the acid. Preferably, although not necessarily required, there is a difference of at least two pKa units between the pKa of the acid and the pKa of the conjugate acid of the base. The acid may be selected from acids with a pKa of 3.5 or lower, for example, 3.0 or lower. Therefore, in another embodiment, the present invention provides: 1.113 The compound according to any one of embodiments 1.1 to 1.109, 1.111 and 1.112 is in the form of an acid addition salt formed with an acid having a pKa of 3.5 or lower (e.g. -7.0 to +3.5).
[0136] 1.114 The compound according to any one of embodiments 1.1 to 1.109, 1.111 and 1.112, which is in the form of an acid addition salt formed with an acid having a pKa of 3.0 or lower.

[0138] 1.116 The compound according to embodiment 1.115, wherein the acid forming the acid addition salt is selected from hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid and methanesulfonic acid.
[0139] Crystalline form The hydrochloride salts of the compounds of formula (1) may exist in amorphous or crystalline form, as described in Example 1 of this document, and it is envisioned that other salt forms of the compounds will also exist in amorphous and crystalline forms.
[0140] Therefore, in another embodiment (Embodiment 1.117), the present invention provides an acid addition salt of the compound of formula (1) which is substantially crystalline.
[0141] The term “substantially crystalline” refers to the form of a compound of formula (1) in which it is 50% to 100% crystalline. Within this range, a compound of formula (1) may be at least 55% crystalline, or at least 60% crystalline, or at least 70% crystalline, or at least 80% crystalline, or at least 90% crystalline, or at least 95% crystalline, or at least 98% crystalline, or at least 99% crystalline, or at least 99.5% crystalline, or at least 99.9% crystalline.
[0142] Therefore, in another embodiment (embodiments 1.118 to 1.121), the present invention provides: 1.118 An acid addition salt of a compound of formula (1) that is substantially crystalline, wherein it is at least 90% crystalline.
[0143] 1.119 An acid addition salt of a compound of formula (1) that is substantially crystalline, wherein it is at least 95% crystalline.
[0144] 1.120 An acid addition salt of a compound of formula (1) that is substantially crystalline, being at least 99% crystalline.
[0145] 1.121 An acid addition salt of a compound of formula (1) that is substantially crystalline, being at least 99.9% crystalline.
[0146] The compounds of the present invention may be in crystalline form either solvated (e.g., hydrated) or non-solventized (e.g., anhydrous).
[0147] As used herein, the term "anhydrous" does not exclude the possibility that some water may be present on or within the compound (e.g., a compound crystal). For example, some water may be present on the surface of the compound (e.g., a crystal) or a small amount of water may be present in the bulk of the compound (e.g., a crystal). Typically, the anhydrous form contains less than 0.4 molecules of water per molecule of the compound, and more preferably less than 0.1 molecules of water per molecule of the compound, such as 0 molecules of water.
[0148] When hydrated in its crystalline form, it may contain, for example, up to three water molecules of crystallization, and more typically up to two water molecules, such as one or two water molecules. It may also form non-stoichiometric hydrates, in which the number of water molecules present is less than one, or otherwise non-integer. For example, when less than one water molecule is present, each molecule of compound (1) may contain, for example, 0.4, or 0.5, or 0.6, or 0.7, or 0.8, or 0.9 water molecules.
[0149] Crystallization can be characterized using a variety of techniques, including X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), single-crystal X-ray diffraction (see Example 1), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The properties of crystals under different humidity conditions can be analyzed using gravimetric vapor adsorption studies (such as dynamic vapor adsorption (DVS)).
[0150] The crystalline structure of a compound can be analyzed using X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) solid-state technology. XRPD can be performed using conventional methods, such as those described herein (see examples below) and those in "Introduction to X-ray Powder Diffraction," Ron Jenkins and Robert L. Snyder (John Wiley & Sons, New York, 1996). The presence of well-defined peaks in the XRPD diffraction pattern (relative to random background noise) indicates that the compound possesses a certain degree of crystallinity.
[0151] The X-ray powder pattern of the compound is characterized by the diffraction angle (2θ) and interplanar spacing (d) parameters of the X-ray diffraction pattern. These are related to Bragg's equation, nλ = 2d Sin θ, where n = 1; λ = wavelength of X-ray radiation; d = interplanar spacing; and θ = diffraction angle.
[0152] Alternatively, the crystalline structure of the salt form of compound (1) can be analyzed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, as described in Example 1 below. The absolute stereochemical configuration of compound (1) has been determined using single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies.
[0153] Geometric isomers and tautomers The compounds of the present invention may exist in a variety of different geometric isomers and tautomers, and references to compounds of formula (1) as defined in embodiments 1.1 to 1.121 include all such forms.
[0154] Optical isomers can be classified by their optical activity (i.e., they exist as + and - isomers or...). d and l The optical isomers can be characterized and identified by their isomer forms, or they can be characterized by their absolute stereochemistry using the "R and S" nomenclature developed by Cahn, Ingold, and Prelog. See [reference needed]. Advanced Organic Chemistry Jerry March, 6th edition, John Wiley & Sons, New Jersey, 2007, pp. 155-158; see also Cahn, Ingold, and Prelog. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl ., 1966, 5, 385-415.
[0155] Optical isomers can be separated by a variety of techniques, including chiral chromatography (via chiral support chromatography), and such techniques are well known to those skilled in the art.
[0156] As an alternative to chiral chromatography, optical isomers can be separated by forming diastereomeric salts with chiral acids such as (+)-tartaric acid, (-)-pyroglutamic acid, (-)-xylyl-L-tartaric acid, (+)-mandelic acid, (-)-malic acid and (-)-camphorsulfonic acid, or chiral amines such as (+)-1-phenylethylamine or (+)-1-(1-naphthyl)ethylamine, and by preferentially separating the diastereomeric isomers and subsequently dissociating the salt to give individual enantiomers of the free base.
[0157] In each of embodiments 1.1 to 1.121, the compound of formula (1) is substantially optically pure; that is, it has an enantiomeric excess (ee) of at least 80% relative to any other optical isomer of the compound of formula (1).
[0158] As used herein, the term “enantiomer excess” is used in its conventional sense, referring to the percentage excess of the enantiomer of interest (compound (1) or compound (2)). When the enantiomer excess is 80%, this corresponds to a composition containing 90% of the desired enantiomer + 10% of other enantiomers = 100% (since 90% - 10% = 80%). More generally, the compound of formula (1) has an optical purity of at least 82%, or at least 84%, or at least 86%, or at least 88%, or at least 90%, or at least 92%, or at least 94%, or at least 96%, or at least 98%, or at least 99%, or 100% (enantiomer excess).

[0160] 1.123 The compound according to embodiment 1.122, wherein the compound of formula (1) has an optical purity of at least 98%, depending on the circumstances.
[0161] 1.124 The compound according to embodiment 1.122, wherein the compound of formula (1) has an optical purity of at least 99%, depending on the circumstances.

[0164] Methods for deuterating organic compounds are known to those skilled in the art (see, for example, “Deuterium Discovery and Applications in Organic Chemistry”, Jaemoon Yang, 2016, Elsevier, and “The Organic Chemistry of Isotopic Labelling”, James R Hanson, 2019, RSC Publishing).
[0165] When the compounds of embodiments 1.1 to 1.125 are deuterated, the percentage of deuterium atoms in the total hydrogen atoms of the compounds of the present invention is less than 2%, more typically less than 1%, more usually less than 0.1%, preferably less than 0.05%, and most preferably not more than 0.02%.
[0166] solvates The compounds defined in any of the embodiments 1.1 to 1.125 may be solvated or non-solventized.
[0167] Preferred solvates are those formed by incorporating a non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable solvent molecule (hereinafter referred to as a solvating solvent) into the solid structure (e.g., crystal structure) of the compound of the present invention. Examples of such solvents include water, alcohols (such as ethanol, isopropanol, and butanol), and dimethyl sulfoxide. Solvates can be prepared by recrystallizing the compound of the present invention with a solvent or a mixture of solvents containing a solvating solvent. Whether a solvate has been formed under any given condition can be determined by analyzing the crystals of the compound using well-known and standard techniques such as pyrolysis gravimetric analysis (TGE), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and X-ray crystallography.
[0168] Solvents can be stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric.
[0169] The particularly preferred solvates are hydrates, and examples of hydrates include hemihydrates, monohydrates and dihydrates.
[0170] For a more detailed discussion of solvates and methods for their preparation and characterization, see Bryn et al., Solid-State Chemistry of Drugs, 2nd Edition, SSCI Publication, Inc. of West Lafayette, IN, USA, 1999, ISBN 0-967-06710-3.
[0171] Complexes and crystal cage compounds In one embodiment, the compound of any one of embodiments 1.1 to 1.125 is a complex of the compound (e.g., an inclusion complex or cage compound with a compound such as cyclodextrin, or a complex with a metal).

[0173] The compound can be used to prevent (to reduce the likelihood of disease) or treat conditions or diseases involving components associated with mitochondrial dysfunction or abnormal activity.
[0174] For example, the compound may be suitable for the prevention or treatment of diseases and symptoms characterized by reduced mitochondrial activity. This reduced activity may be due to a decrease in the number of mitochondria produced by the body or due to reduced mitochondrial activity in the produced mitochondria.
[0175] As used herein, the term "treatment" generally refers to a beneficial therapeutic intervention. Such treatment can suppress symptoms caused by an underlying disease condition, even if the underlying disease condition persists; for example, the treatment can reduce or alleviate the symptoms of the disease, thereby making it easier for the patient to manage the symptoms.
[0176] As used in this article, the term "preventing" is generally used to refer to therapeutic interventions in which the onset of mitochondrial disease symptoms can be completely prevented or mitigated, even if the underlying cause of the disease (such as a genetic mutation) remains.

[0203] Determination of biological characteristics The ability of the compounds in implementation schemes 1.1 to 1.125 to increase mitochondrial activity can also be determined using the schemes described in the Examples section below.
[0204] Cell-based in vitro functional and phenotypic analyses can be used to simultaneously analyze mitochondrial parameters, thus obtaining a more comprehensive footprint of the effects of compounds on mitochondrial activity. Mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔψM) can be assessed using dyes that accumulate within mitochondria without affecting mitochondrial respiration. These dyes include, but are not limited to, acridine orange 10-nonyl bromide (NAO), MitoTracker™ Green FM, MITO-ID® Green, and MitoView™ Green. These dyes are widely used for imaging mitochondria to assess their intracellular localization and quantify mitochondrial abundance, thus providing indirect indicators of mitochondrial biogenesis and efficiency [Kitami 2012]. To assess mitochondrial biomass at the cellular level, reporter cell lines transfected with mitochondrial-targeting green fluorescent protein (GFP) can be used to quantify the expression of respiratory complex subunits (such as cytochrome c oxidase subunit IV (Cox8)) in living cells [Wang 2012, Nilsson 2015]. Furthermore, the development of oxygen-dependent fluorescence quenching systems and high-resolution respirometry (HRR) has enabled the direct quantification of mitochondrial respiration in high-throughput formats. By combining multiple test results for all compounds, it is possible to define a comprehensive set of mitochondrial signatures, thereby enabling the clustering of novel chemical entities based on their impact on mitochondrial function [Andreux 2016].
[0205] Preferred compounds in embodiments 1.1 to 1.125 are compounds having 102% or greater, preferably 105% or greater, mitochondrial-size activity (measured using the methods described above, such as in the Mitotracker assay or the Cox8 MTS reporter assay).

[0228] 4.3 The pharmaceutical composition according to embodiment 4.2 comprises about 5% (w / w) to about 90% (w / w) of the compound as described in any one of embodiments 1.1 to 1.125 and 95% (w / w) to 10% of a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or combination of excipients, and optionally one or more additional therapeutically active ingredients.
[0229] 4.4 The pharmaceutical composition according to embodiment 4.3 comprises about 10% (w / w) to about 90% (w / w) of the compound as described in any one of embodiments 1.1 to 1.125 and 90% (w / w) to 10% of a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or combination of excipients.
[0230] 4.5 The pharmaceutical composition according to embodiment 4.4 comprises about 20% (w / w) to about 90% (w / w) of the compound as described in any one of embodiments 1.1 to 1.125 and 80% (w / w) to 10% of a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or combination of excipients.
[0231] 4.6 The pharmaceutical composition according to embodiment 4.5 comprises about 25% (w / w) to about 80% (w / w) of the compound as described in any one of embodiments 1.1 to 1.125 and 75% (w / w) to 20% of a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient or combination of excipients.
[0232] The pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention may be in any form suitable for oral, parenteral, topical, intranasal, intrabronchial, ocular, ocular, rectal, vaginal, or percutaneous administration. If the composition is intended for parenteral administration, it may be formulated for intravenous, intramuscular, intraperitoneal, or subcutaneous administration, or for direct delivery to the target organ or tissue by injection, infusion, or other means of delivery.
[0233] Drug dosage forms suitable for oral administration include tablets, capsules, pouches, pills, lozenges, syrups, solutions, sprays, powders, granules, elixirs and suspensions, sublingual tablets, sprays, powder tablets or patches and buccal patches.
[0234] Pharmaceutical compositions containing any one of the compounds according to embodiments 1.1 to 1.125 of the present invention can be formulated according to known techniques, see example Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences, Mack Publishing Company, Easton, PA, USA.
[0235] Therefore, tablet compositions may contain a unit dose of the active compound and an inert diluent or carrier, such as sugars or sugar alcohols, such as lactose, sucrose, sorbitol, or mannitol; and / or non-sugar-derived diluents, such as sodium carbonate, calcium phosphate, talc, calcium carbonate, or cellulose or its derivatives, such as methylcellulose, ethylcellulose, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose; and starch, such as corn starch. Tablets may also contain such standard ingredients as binders and granulating agents (e.g., polyvinylpyrrolidone), disintegrants (e.g., expandable crosslinking polymers, such as crosslinked carboxymethyl cellulose), lubricants (e.g., stearates), preservatives (e.g., parabens), antioxidants (e.g., BHT), buffers (e.g., phosphate or citrate buffers), and foaming agents (e.g., citrate / bicarbonate mixtures). Such excipients are well known and need not be discussed in detail here.
[0236] Capsule formulations can be made from hard or soft gelatin and may contain active ingredients in solid, semi-solid, or liquid form. Gelatin capsules may be formed from animal gelatin or its synthetic or plant-derived equivalents.
[0237] Solid dosage forms (e.g., tablets, capsules, etc.) may be coated or uncoated, but are typically coated, such as with a protective film (e.g., wax or varnish) or a release-controlling coating. The coating (e.g., an Eudragit™ type polymer) can be programmed to release the active ingredient at a desired location within the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, coatings can be selected to degrade under certain pH conditions within the gastrointestinal tract, thereby selectively releasing the compound in the stomach, ileum, or duodenum.
[0238] Alternatively, or in addition to coating, the drug may be present in a solid matrix containing a release controller, such as a release delay agent, which is adapted to selectively release the compound under varying acidity or alkalinity conditions in the gastrointestinal tract. Alternatively, the matrix material or release delay coating may be in the form of an erosive polymer (e.g., a maleic anhydride polymer) that is substantially continuously eroded as the dosage form passes through the gastrointestinal tract.
[0239] In one particular embodiment, the pharmaceutical composition of embodiment 4.1 is an enteric-coated solid dosage form, such as a coated tablet or capsule, wherein the coating is selected to be resistant to acidic conditions and degrade under pH conditions prevalent in the duodenum or ileum, thereby selectively releasing the compound in the duodenum or ileum.
[0240] Topical compositions include ointments, creams, sprays, patches, gels, liquid drops, and inserts (e.g., intraocular inserts). Such compositions can be formulated according to known methods.
[0241] Compositions intended for parenteral administration are typically provided as sterile aqueous or oily solutions or fine suspensions, or as sterile powders that can be finely pulverized for temporary reconstitution with sterile water for injection.
[0242] Examples of preparations for rectal or vaginal administration include pessaries and suppositories, which may be formed, for example, from moldable or waxy materials containing active compounds.
[0243] Compositions administered by inhalation may be in the form of inhalable powder compositions, liquids, or powder sprays, and may be administered in standard form using powder inhaler devices or aerosol dispensing devices. Such devices are well known. For inhalation administration, powder formulations typically contain an active compound along with an inert solid powdered diluent (such as lactose).
[0244] The compounds of the present invention will generally be presented in unit dosage forms and will therefore generally contain a compound sufficient to provide the desired level of biological activity. For example, according to embodiment 4.1, a composition intended for oral administration may contain 2 mg to 200 mg of the active ingredient, more typically 10 mg to 100 mg, such as 12.5 mg, 25 mg or 50 mg.
[0245] Combination therapy It is envisioned that the compounds of embodiments 1.1 to 1.125 will be available as therapeutic agents alone or in combination with other therapeutic agents.
[0246] The compounds of this invention, designed to enhance mitochondrial bioenergetics by increasing OXPHOS capacity, are intended to be used in combination with the following: ● Reagents to replenish the NAD+ pool; ● Inhibitors of pathways that deplete cellular and mitochondrial NAD+ pools; ● Regulators of mitochondrial biogenesis; ● Activator of retinoid X receptor-α (RXRα); ● SIRT1-activated compound (STAC); ● Mitochondrial-targeting protective compounds that reduce the production of toxic reactive oxygen species; ● Antioxidants; ● Vitamins and supplements; and ● Behavioral intervention.
[0247] Dosimetry The compounds of the present invention as defined in any one of embodiments 1.1 to 1.125 may be administered for a prolonged period to maintain a beneficial therapeutic effect, or may be administered for a short period of time. Alternatively, they may be administered in a pulsed or continuous manner.
[0248] The compounds of this invention will be administered in an effective amount, that is, an amount that effectively produces the desired therapeutic effect. For example, an "effective amount" may be the amount of a compound that improves disease symptoms and / or increases lifespan when administered to an individual.
[0249] The amount of the compound of the invention administered to an individual will depend on the type and severity of the disease or symptom, as well as the individual's characteristics (such as general health, age, sex, weight, and tolerance to the drug). Those skilled in the art will be able to determine the appropriate dosage based on these and other factors.
[0250] The compound is typically administered to an individual who requires such administration, such as a human or animal individual (patient), preferably a human.
[0251] Ultimately, the amount of compound applied and the type of composition used will be appropriate to the nature of the disease or physiological condition being treated, and will be determined by the physician.
[0252] Diagnostic methods Prior to administering any of the compounds in embodiments 1.1 to 1.125, patients may be screened to determine whether the patient has or may have a disease or condition that is sensitive to treatment with compounds that can increase mitochondrial activity. Such patients may then be treated according to the methods described above.
[0253] For example, biological samples taken from a patient can be analyzed to determine whether the patient's existing or potential condition or disease is characterized by a genetic abnormality that leads to mitochondrial dysfunction. The term mitochondrial dysfunction encompasses both reduced mitochondrial production and decreased mitochondrial activity.
[0254] Mitochondrial dysfunction can be caused by exposure to certain environmental factors, such as occupational chemical mutagens, air pollution, and cigarette smoke, or by genetic abnormalities in mitochondrial (mtDNA) and nuclear DNA (nDNA). Mitochondrial dysfunction can affect any organ system and can occur at any age.
[0255] Diagnosing mitochondrial myopathy from patient tissue, skin, or serum samples involves techniques such as histological and immunohistochemical analysis: for example, staining frozen sections of skeletal muscle with a modified Gomori trichrome staining method to indicate the presence of broken red fibers (RRF); succinate dehydrogenase (SDH, complex II) histochemistry, used to detect mitochondrial aggregates formed due to mitochondrial OXPHOS dysfunction; and sequential COX / SDH histochemistry, which can be used to detect cytochrome c oxidase (COX, complex IV) negative fibers. Biochemical enzyme analysis using spectrophotometry to assess OXPHOS complexes (such as NADH: ubiquinone oxidoreductase, complex I; succinate: cytochrome c oxidoreductase, complex II; ubiquinol cytochrome c oxidoreductase, complex III; cytochrome c oxidase, complex IV) and blue native acrylamide PAGE (BN-PAGE) can both be used to detect mitochondrial dysfunction in patient tissue, skin, or serum. Mutations leading to mitochondrial myopathy can be present in either mtDNA or nDNA, and these mutations can be detected using next-generation sequencing (NGS), whole-exome sequencing (WES), whole-genome sequencing (WGS), or a combination of multi-gene targeted detection of candidate genes via NGS. For some patients with mitochondrial myopathy, determining the mtDNA copy number in muscle tissue using real-time PCR is helpful, or long-range PCR can be used to detect large-scale or multiple mtDNA deletions. Furthermore, mtDNA heterogeneity and deletions can be determined using NGS, real-time PCR, pyrosequencing, and long-range PCR.
[0256] In particular, mutations in mtDNA have been identified and linked to mitochondrial dysfunction in the following diseases:
[0257] Other diagnostic tests for mitochondrial myopathy include: measuring lactate levels at rest or after exercise; serum fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF-21); and serum growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15). Integrating the information from these tests can help diagnose most patients with mitochondrial myopathy [Ahmed 2018].
[0258] In vitro applications As described above, the compounds of embodiments 1.1 to 1.125 can be used to improve mitochondrial activity in isolated cells. Such ex vivo methods are envisioned for use in a variety of therapies involving the removal of cells from an individual, modification of the cells, and then reintroduction of the cells into the individual. Examples of such therapies include CAR-T and CAR-NK therapies.
[0259] Therefore, an in vitro method for improving cellular mitochondrial activity is also provided, the method comprising contacting an effective amount of a compound as described in any one of embodiments 1.1 to 1.125 with the cell.

These and / or other well-known methods can be modified and / or adapted in various ways to facilitate the synthesis of additional compounds within the scope of this application and claims. Such alternative methods and modifications should be understood as being within the spirit and scope of this application and claims. Therefore, the methods set forth in the following description, schemes, and examples are intended for illustrative purposes and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this disclosure.
