Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present application relates to the pharmaceutical field. Specifically, the present application relates to a series of voltage-gated calcium ion channel α2δ subunit ligands containing a polycyclic γ-aminobutyric acid structure, methods for preparing the same, pharmaceutical compositions containing the same, and uses thereof in medicine. [Background technology]

[0002] Chronic neuropathic pain (CNP) is pain caused by nerve damage due to various causes, such as long-term diabetes, certain viral infections, cancer, central nervous system injury, and the use of certain chemotherapy drugs. Diabetic peripheral neuropathy pain (DPNP) and postherpetic neuralgia (PHN) are the two most common types of chronic neuropathic pain. Untreated or improperly treated chronic neuropathic pain can cause significant physical pain, have a significant negative impact on the patient's mood, and lead to mental and psychological problems such as insomnia, anxiety, and depression, thereby significantly reducing the patient's quality of life and placing a significant burden on families and society.

[0003] Currently, the three main types of medications used to treat chronic neuropathic pain are antidepressants, anticonvulsants (antiepileptics), and analgesics. Antidepressants used to treat chronic neuropathic pain can be broadly divided into tricyclic antidepressants and other antidepressants. Tricyclic antidepressants include amitriptyline, maprotiline, clomipramine, doxepin, etc. Tricyclic antidepressants have many side effects, such as anticholinergic effects (dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision, hypersomnia, weight gain, etc.), central nervous system toxicity (inattention, epileptic seizures, abnormal social behavior, hallucinations, etc.), and cardiovascular toxicity (hypotension, tachycardia, arrhythmia, etc.). These medications have many precautions for combination therapy, and their drug interactions are relatively complex. Other antidepressants include primarily selective 5-hydroxytryptamine and / or norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, such as imipramine, paroxetine, fluoxetine, escitalopram, duloxetine, bupropion, venlafaxine, and sertraline. Antidepressants have numerous precautions for combination therapy and complex drug interactions, creating significant challenges in clinical therapy and patient compliance. Antiepileptic drugs used to treat chronic neuropathic pain are primarily sodium and calcium ion channel drugs, such as gabapentin, pregabalin, lamotrigine, topiramate, carbamazepine, oxcarbazepine, and sodium valproate. Gabapentin requires a very high daily dose of 1,800–3,600 mg to achieve optimal efficacy. At higher doses, absorption saturates, resulting in a slow onset of effect (onset occurs after 2 weeks of oral administration). Sodium ion channel blockers, such as lamotrigine and topiramate, have many side effects, such as rash, nausea and vomiting, dizziness and fatigue, and blurred vision. They require careful attention when used in combination with other drugs, and their drug interactions are relatively complex. Painkillers used to treat chronic neuropathic pain include opioids, tramadol, and tapentadol, the latter two of which share a significant portion of the mechanism of action of opioids. Opioid drugs have some, but not strong, effect on neuropathic pain, but they have significant side effects and are addictive.Studies have shown that when duloxetine is used at doses of 60 mg / day and 120 mg / day to treat diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain, the clinical effectiveness rates are only 49% and 52%, respectively (Goldstein, DJ; et al. Pain, 2005, 116(1-2), 109-118.), and when gabapentin is used at daily doses of up to 1,800 mg / day, 2,400 mg / day, and 3,600 mg / day, the clinical effectiveness rates for postherpetic neuralgia are 32%, 34%, and 43%, respectively (Rice, ASC; et al. Pain, 2001, 94(2), 215-224; Rowbotham, M.; et al. JAMA, 1998, 280(21), It has been reported that when pregabalin is used at a dose of 150-600 mg per day, the clinical effectiveness rate for postherpetic neuralgia is 26-50% (Dworkin, RH; et al. Neurology, 2003, 60(8), 1274-1283; Sabatowski, R.; et al. Pain, 2004, 109(1-2), 26-35). These extremely low clinical effectiveness data reflect the dilemma of the therapeutic effectiveness of currently available drugs, in that there is currently no specific cure for these diseases and no easy treatment that can prevent or improve neuropathy or completely relieve pain.

[0004] The voltage-gated calcium ion channel α2δ subunit is an important target for therapeutic drugs. Of the four drugs approved by the US FDA for diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain (pregabalin, duloxetine, fluoxetine, and talpentadol), pregabalin acts on this target (Field, MJ; et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 2006, 103, 17537-17542). Voltage-gated calcium ion channel α2δ subunit ligand drugs, such as gabapentin, pregabalin, and mirogabalin, can be used to treat chronic neuropathic pain as well as epilepsy (pregabalin, US FDA-approved) and anxiety (pregabalin, European Medicines Agency-approved).

[0005] The present invention discloses a γ-aminobutyric acid derivative containing a polycyclic structure, which compound is 3 When combined with [H] gabapentin, it has a strong inhibitory effect on the human voltage-gated calcium ion channel α2δ subunit, and can be used to prepare drugs for the treatment of chronic neuropathic pain, epilepsy, and anxiety.

[0085] [ka] Step 1: Synthesis of compound (±)-3 The procedure for preparing activated zinc powder is as follows: dry CuSO4 (40.00 g, 0.25 mol) was added to water (1 L) and stirred to dissolve and clarify. Zinc powder (600.00 g, 9.17 mol) was added, stirred at room temperature for 3-4 hours, and filtered. The filter cake was washed with water (300 mL x 2) and acetone (750 mL x 2) successively and dried in a vacuum drying oven at 50 °C (approximately 10 mmHg) for 24-48 hours.

A solution of trichloroacetyl chloride (12.00 g, 66 mmol) in dry tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) was then added dropwise. Heat was generated during the addition, and the internal temperature of the reaction mixture was maintained between 35 and 40 °C by controlling the addition rate. After the addition was completed, the internal temperature of the reaction mixture was maintained at 35 °C and the mixture was stirred overnight. TLC monitoring indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and filtered using diatomaceous earth. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give a brown oil, which was then purified by column chromatography [V(EtOAc) / V(n-hexane) = 0 / 1 → 9 / 91] to give the desired product (±)-3 (pale yellow oil, 6.00 g). The product was used directly in the next reaction without characterization.

The derivative was obtained following the above 3,5-dinitrobenzoylation derivatization step, and its ee value measured by chiral HPLC was 99.34% (4.40 g (37%) of white solid). The product was used directly in the next reaction without characterization.

[0138] Step 3: Synthesis of (S)-(+)-O-acetylmandelate of compound (+)-32 The filtrate obtained after filtering the separated crystals in Step 2 was concentrated, and saturated NaHCO3 solution (100 mL x 2) was added thereto, stirred, and extracted with EtOAc (100 mL x 2). The organic phases were combined, dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give a pale yellow oil (12.85 g, 48 mmol equivalent). THF (100 mL) was added at room temperature to dilute the oil, and a solution of (S)-(+)-O-acetylmandelic acid (4.70 g, 24 mmol) in THF (50 mL) was added dropwise (a large amount of solid gradually precipitated after half of the solution had been added). After the addition was complete, THF (30 mL) was added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 hours. Filtration was then performed. The filter cake was dried under oil pump vacuum to give (S)-(+)-O-acetylmandelate of (+)-32 (white solid, 6.00 g, 13 mmol). The derivative was obtained following the 3,5-dinitrobenzoylation derivatization step described above, and its ee value determined by chiral HPLC was 90.77%.

[0139] The white solid was thoroughly stirred with THF (60 mL) at room temperature, then transferred to an oil bath and stirred at 40 °C for 10 minutes (the system was slightly dissolved). The system was then returned to room temperature, and THF (30 mL) was added, followed by stirring overnight. The solid was collected by suction filtration and dried under a vacuum oil pump to obtain the (S)-(+)-O-acetylmandelate of compound (+)-32. The derivative was obtained following the 3,5-dinitrobenzoylation derivatization step described above, and its ee value measured by chiral HPLC was 99.17% (4.40 g (40%) of white solid). The product was used directly in the next reaction without further characterization.

[0140] Step 4: Synthesis of compound (-)-I-3 and its p-toluenesulfonate salt The (R)-(-)-O-acetylmandelate of compound (-)-32 (1.50 g, 3.3 mmol) was added to saturated NaHCO3 solution (100 mL) at room temperature, stirred for 20 minutes (suspension), and extracted with EtOAc (50 mL x 3). The organic phases were combined, dried (MgSO4), and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give a yellow oil. The oil was then dissolved in CHCl2 (10 mL) and TFA (7 mL) was added dropwise slowly in an ice-water bath. After the addition was complete, the reaction was allowed to proceed at room temperature for 4-6 hours. TLC monitoring indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give a brown oil. CHCl2 (10 mL) was added and the mixture was concentrated again. The resulting oil was dried in a vacuum oil pump to give (-)-32. The (-)-32 sample was dissolved in CH3OH (2.5 mL), then EtOAc (12 mL) was added and stirred. p-TsOH HO (0.70 g, 3.7 mmol) was added to the solution, and the solution was stirred until a large amount of solid precipitated. The solution was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The solid was collected by suction filtration and dried under a vacuum oil pump.

After the addition was complete, the reaction was allowed to proceed at room temperature for 4–6 hours. TLC monitoring indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give a brown oil. CHCl2 (10 mL) was added and the mixture was concentrated again. The resulting oil was dried under vacuum on an oil pump to give (+)-I-3. The (+)-I-3 sample was dissolved in CHOH (2 mL), and EtOAc (6 mL) was added again and stirred. p-TsOH·HO (0.60 g, 3.2 mmol) was then added to the solution, and the solution was stirred until a large amount of solid precipitated.

[0144] The absolute configuration of compound (+)-I-3 can be determined indirectly by converting the (S)-(+)-o-acetylmandelate of (+)-32, which has the same absolute configuration, into its lactam, (+)-32-LAC, and determining the absolute configuration of (+)-32-LAC, which has the same absolute configuration as (+)-32, using X-ray single crystal diffraction.

The resulting residue was dissolved in toluene (7 mL) and heated to reflux overnight. TLC showed the reaction was complete. The reaction was cooled to room temperature, and the solvent was removed by rotary evaporation. The residue was slurried with EtOAc / n-hexane (1 / 10 v / v, 3 mL total). The crystals were collected by suction filtration and dried, melting at 189.3-191.5 °C, [α].

The organic phases were combined, dried (MgSO4), and filtered to remove the drying agent. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give compound (±)-22 as a pale yellow oil. The above oil was dissolved in CHCl2 (7 mL) and stirred, followed by the addition of 3,5-dinitrobenzoyl chloride (0.60 g, 2.6 mmol). Triethylamine (0.6 mL) was added dropwise, and the reaction was allowed to proceed at room temperature for 1 hour after the dropwise addition. TLC monitoring indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction solution was directly purified by column chromatography [V(EtOAc) / V(n-hexane) = 0 / 1 → 1 / 4] to give a pale yellow oil. n-Hexane (10 mL) was added to the oil and slurried at room temperature for 1 hour. The solid was collected by suction filtration and dried under vacuum to give 0.60 g (57%) of the 3,5-dinitrobenzoylated derivative of the desired product (±)-22 (white solid), melting point 118.9°C-119.8°C. 1H NMR (CDCl3, 500 MHz) δ: 9.46 (brs, 1H), 9.19 (d, 2H, J = 2.0 Hz), 9.16 (t, 1H, J = 2.0 Hz), 6.40-6.42 (m, 1H), 6.31-6.33 (m, 1H), 3.82 (dd, 1H, J = 5.5 Hz and 13.5 Hz), 3.36 (dd, 1H, J = 3.3 Hz and 13.8 Hz), 2.86-2.90 (m, 3H), 2.69 (dd, 1H, J = 1.0 Hz and 17.0 Hz), 2.58-2.60 (m, 1H), 2.37 (d, 1H, J = 17.5 Hz).

ESI-HRMS: (m / z) C 23 H 27 N3NaO7([M+Na] + ) calculated value: 458.1741, measured value: 458.1735.

[0153] The 3,5-dinitrobenzoyl derivative of (±)-22 was used as a reference substance to test the optical purity of (−)-22 and (+)-22 obtained after chiral acid resolution of (±)-22 in steps 2 and 3 below using a chiral HPLC method.

[0154] Step 2: Synthesis of the (R)-(-)-mandelate of compound (-)-22 Compound (±)-22 (18.14 g, 69 mmol) was dissolved in THF (90 mL) at room temperature, and then a solution of (R)-(-)-mandelic acid (4.50 g, 30 mmol) in THF (90 mL) was added dropwise. After the addition was complete, stirring was continued for 30 minutes. Isopropyl ether (180 mL) was then added dropwise, and the mixture was stirred overnight at room temperature until crystals precipitated. If a solid did not precipitate, an appropriate amount of seed crystals was added to the system until a solid gradually precipitated. Next, a THF solution (9 mL) of (R)-(-)-mandelic acid (2.25 g, 15 mmol) was added dropwise, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. Isopropyl ether (180 mL) was then added dropwise. After the addition was complete, the amount of solid in the system increased, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The solid was collected by suction filtration (the filtrate was collected) and dried under a vacuum oil pump to give the (R)-(-)-mandelate of (-)-22 (8.60 g, 21 mmol) (white solid). A small sample was treated according to the 3,5-dinitrobenzoylation derivatization step described above and determined to have an ee value of 87.05% by chiral HPLC. The (R)-(-)-mandelate of (-)-22 (8.40 g, 20 mmol) was thoroughly stirred with a mixture of THF (40 mL) and isopropyl ether (40 mL) (white solid) at room temperature, then transferred to an oil bath and stirred at 65 °C. A mixture of THF (10 mL) and isopropyl ether (10 mL) was added dropwise until the system was slightly dissolved, followed by stirring for 30 minutes. The system was then left at room temperature and stirred overnight. The solid was collected by suction filtration and dried under an oil pump vacuum to give a white solid (6.60 g, 16 mmol). The solid was recrystallized by repeating the above recrystallization method using a THF / isopropyl ether = 1 / 2 (v / v) solvent to give the pure (R)-(-)-mandelate of compound (-)-22. A small amount was treated according to the 3,5-dinitrobenzoylation derivatization step described above, and determined by chiral HPLC to have an ee value of 99.10% (white solid, 6.00 g (43%)). The product was used directly in the next reaction without further characterization.

[0155] Step 3: Synthesis of the (S)-(+)-mandelate of compound (+)-22 Compound (±)-22 (18.14 g, 69 mmol) was dissolved in isopropanol (45 mL) at room temperature, followed by the dropwise addition of a solution of (S)-(+)-mandelic acid (9.00 g, 59 mmol) in isopropanol (45 mL). After the addition was complete, no significant change was observed. Stirring was continued for 30 minutes, and then isopropyl ether (270 mL) was added dropwise. After the addition was complete, stirring was continued until a large amount of solid was formed. If no crystals were formed, an appropriate amount of seed crystals was added to the system. The crystallization system was stirred overnight at room temperature. The crystals were collected by suction filtration (the filtrate was collected) and dried under a vacuum oil pump to obtain 9.00 g (22 mmol) of (S)-(+)-mandelate of (+)-22 (white solid). A small amount of the sample was treated according to the 3,5-dinitrobenzoylation derivatization step described above, and the ee value was determined to be 30.88% by chiral HPLC. The (S)-(+)-mandelate (9.00 g, 22 mmol) of (+)-22 was thoroughly stirred with a 1 / 2 mixture of isopropanol and isopropyl ether (v / v, 50 mL total) at room temperature, then transferred to an oil bath and stirred at 60 °C (the system dissolved slightly). Stirring continued for 10 min. The system was then left at room temperature until a large amount of white solid gradually precipitated. A 1 / 2 mixture of isopropanol and isopropyl ether (v / v, 15 mL total) was added dropwise, and the system was stirred for 1-2 h. The solid was collected by suction filtration and dried under a vacuum oil pump to obtain a white solid (5.40 g, 13 mmol). The above recrystallization procedure was repeated twice to give the (S)-(+)-mandelate of compound (+)-22, a small portion of which was treated according to the 3,5-dinitrobenzoylation derivatization step described above and determined by chiral HPLC to have an ee value of 98.34% (white solid, 2.40 g (17%)). The product was used directly in the next reaction without further characterization.

[0156] Step 4: Synthesis of compound (-)-I-4 and its p-toluenesulfonate salt The (R)-(-)-mandelate of compound (-)-22 (3.00 g, 7.2 mmol) was added to saturated NaHCO3 solution (100 mL) at room temperature, stirred for 20 minutes, and extracted with EtOAc (80 mL x 3). The organic phases were combined, dried (MgSO4), and filtered to remove the drying agent. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give a yellow oil. The oil was then dissolved in CHCl2 (20 mL) and TFA (15 mL) was added dropwise slowly in an ice-water bath. After the addition was complete, the reaction was allowed to proceed at room temperature for 4-6 hours. TLC monitoring indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give a brown oil. CHCl2 (20 mL) was added and the mixture was concentrated again. The resulting oil was dried in a vacuum oil pump to give (-)-I-4. The (-)-I-4 was dissolved in CHOH (2.5 mL), EtOAc (12 mL) was added, and the mixture was thoroughly stirred. p-TsOH HO (1.40 g, 7.4 mmol) was added to the solution, and the mixture was stirred until a large amount of solid precipitated.

[0158] Step 5: Synthesis of compound (+)-I-4 and its p-toluenesulfonate salt Compound (+)-22 (S)-(+)-mandelate (2.40 g, 5.8 mmol) was added to saturated NaHCO3 solution (100 mL) at room temperature, stirred for 20 minutes, and extracted with EtOAc (60 mL × 3). The organic phases were combined, dried (MgSO4), and filtered to remove the drying agent. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give a yellow oil. The oil was then dissolved in CHCl2 (18 mL) and TFA (14 mL) was added dropwise slowly in an ice-water bath. After the addition was complete, the reaction was allowed to proceed at room temperature for 4–6 hours. TLC monitoring indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction solution was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give a brown oil. CHCl2 (20 mL) was added and the mixture was concentrated again.

[0160] The absolute configuration of compound (+)-I-4 can be determined indirectly by converting the (S)-(+)-mandelate of (+)-22, which has the same absolute configuration, into the lactam (+)-22-LAC, whose absolute configuration is identical to that of (+)-22, using X-ray single crystal diffraction.

[0161] The specific experimental method is as follows: Synthesis of (+)-22-LAC: (S)-(+)-Mandelate (1.00 g, 2.4 mmol) of the above (+)-22 (ee value 98.34%) was added to saturated NaHCO3 solution (100 mL) and stirred for 10 minutes, followed by extraction with EtOAc (30 mL × 3). The organic phases were combined, washed with saturated brine, dried (MgSO4), and filtered to remove the drying agent. The filtrate was evaporated to dryness on a rotary evaporator. The resulting residue was dissolved in toluene (7 mL) and heated to reflux overnight. TLC showed the reaction was complete. The reaction was cooled to room temperature, and the solvent was removed by rotary evaporation. The residue was slurried with EtOAc / n-hexane (1 / 10 v / v, 5 mL total). The crystals were collected by suction filtration and dried, melting at 178.7-180.5 °C, [α] D 20 = +30.2° (c = 1.03, CH3OH) to obtain 0.40 g (88%) of (+)-22-LAC. 1 H NMR (CDCl3, 500 MHz) δ: 6.27-6.29 (m, 1H), 6.22-6.24 (m, 1H), 5.89 (brs, 1H), 3.40 (dd, 1H, J = 1.0 Hz and 9.5 Hz), 3.36 (d, 1H, J = 9.5 Hz), 2.97-2.99 (m, 1H), 2.81-2.83 (m, 1H), 2.69-2.74 (m, 1H), 2.54-2.57 (m, 1H), 2.13 (d, 1H, J = 17.0 Hz), 2.05 (d, 1H, J = 17.0 Hz), 1.91 (ddd, 1H, J = 1.0 Hz, 8.5 Hz and 12.5 Hz), 1.57-1.60 (m, 1H), 1.42 (dd, 1H, J = 0.8 Hz and 12.8 Hz), 1.08-1.10 (m, 1H). 13 C NMR (CDCl3, 126 MHz) δ: 178.22, 136.71, 136.25, 58.19, 52.34, 48.58, 45.59, 44.50, 40.90, 40.74, 37.63, 33.04. ESI-HRMS: (m / z) C 12 H 16 NO ([M+H] + ) calculated value: 190.1226, measured value: 190.1224.

[0162] Cultivation of (+)-22-LAC single crystals and X-ray diffraction: 10 mg of (+)-22-LAC sample was weighed and dissolved in 1 mL of CHCl. ​​Then, 2 mL of n-hexane was added and the mixture was shaken uniformly. The solution was filtered, and the filtrate was placed in a small glass Erlenmeyer flask and allowed to slowly evaporate at room temperature for 2-3 days to obtain single crystals suitable for X-ray diffraction. A single crystal measuring 0.3 x 0.09 x 0.08 mm was selected for diffraction using CuKα radiation at 100.00 (10) K on a Rigaku XtaLAB Pro single crystal diffractometer. CrysAlisPro 1.171.39.33c (Rigaku OD, 2017) was used for diffraction data collection and data reduction, and the SHELXL program was used for structure analysis and refinement.

[0163] The chemical structure of the compound (+)-22-LAC in single crystal diffraction (ORTEP diagram) is shown in Figure 2.

[0167] [ka] Step 1: Synthesis of compound (±)-33 A dried flask was charged with dry CHCl (200 mL), and the air in the reaction vessel was purged with nitrogen (balloon) according to standard procedures. Under ice-water bath cooling, a solution of EtZn (1 M in n-hexane, 298 mL) in dry CHCl (30 mL) and TFA (33.99 g, 0.30 mol) were added dropwise to the system, yielding a white slurry. After the addition was complete, the mixture was stirred for 0.5 h in the ice-water bath, followed by the dropwise addition of a solution of CHCl (79.84 g, 0.30 mol) in dry CHCl (80 mL). (During the addition, the white viscous solid gradually dissolved and clarified, and a white solid precipitated in the suspension.) After the addition was complete, the mixture was stirred for 0.5 h in the ice-water bath, followed by the dropwise addition of a solution of compound (±)-18 (10.00 g, 75 mmol) in dry CHCl (20 mL). After the addition was complete, the reaction was stirred at room temperature for 4–6 h and then heated to reflux overnight. TLC monitoring indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction was quenched, cooled to room temperature, added to saturated aqueous NH4Cl (300 mL × 2), stirred, and extracted with C2Cl2 (200 mL × 2). The organic phases were combined, washed with saturated brine (400 mL), and separated. The combined organic phases were dried (MgSO4), and filtered to remove the drying agent. The filtrate was concentrated on a rotary evaporator to give a brown oil, which was then purified by column chromatography [V(EtOAc) / V(n-hexane) = 0 / 1 → 1 / 9] to give 3.15 g (29%) of the desired compound (±)-33 (yellow oil (slightly impure)). 1 H NMR (CDCl3, 500 MHz) δ: 3.48-3.52 (m, 1H), 2.95 (dt, 1H, J = 3.5 Hz and 18.5 Hz), 2.65-2.77 (m, 2H), 2.55-2.56 (m, 1H), 2.51-2.53 (m, 1H), 1.32-1.35 (m, 1H), 1.01-1.05 (m, 1H), 0.97-1.00 (m, 1H), 0.87-0.90 (m, 1H), 0.54-0.57 (m, 1H), 0.03-0.08 (m, 1H).

[0211] Compound (±)-I-12 is a specific form of the compound of general formula I in the present application.

[0212] [Example 15] Synthesis of compound (±)-I-13

[0213] [ka] Step 1: Synthesis of compound 62 While cooling and stirring in an ice-water bath, SnCl2·2H2O (1299.93 g, 5.76 mol), KI (956.29 g, 5.76 mol), and allyl bromide (696.94 g, 5.76 mol) were sequentially added to deionized water (8.25 L) and stirred (the solution turned orange-red). After the internal temperature of the system stabilized at 10 °C, a solution of acrolein diethyl acetal (500.00 g, 3.84 mol) in THF (768 mL) was slowly added dropwise (the internal temperature was confirmed to be no higher than 20 °C, and the color of the system changed from orange-red to pale yellow). After the addition was complete, the system was stirred overnight at room temperature. TLC monitoring indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction was then quenched. The reaction solution was poured into CHCl2 (8 L) and stirred. The organic phase was separated, and the aqueous phase was re-extracted with CHCl2 (8 L). The organic phases were combined, washed with saturated brine (5 L), dried (MgSO4), and suction filtered to remove the drying agent. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator (low temperature 30 °C) to give a pale yellow oil. The oil was purified by vacuum distillation. The fractions with a head temperature of approximately 60 °C / 30 mmHg were collected to give 183.50 g (49%) of the desired product 62 (a clear, colorless oil). 1 H NMR (CDCl, 500 MHz) δ: 5.78-5.93 (m, 2H), 5.24-5.28 (m, 1H), 5.13-5.18 (m, 3H), 4.17-4.21 (m, 1H), 2.33-2.39 (m, 1H), 2.26-2.32 (m, 1H). The product was used directly in the next step without further purification.

[0214] Step 2: Synthesis of compound 63 Preparation of Jones Reagent: A reaction vessel was charged with water (267 mL) and cooled in an ice-water bath. CrO (122.83 g, 1.23 mol) was added in small portions under stirring to form an orange-red suspension, and then concentrated HSO (131 mL) was added dropwise slowly. After the addition was complete, the solution was stored for later use.

[0215] Compound 62 (120.56 g, 1.23 mol) was dissolved in acetone (430 mL) and stirred in an ice-water bath. Jones reagent was slowly added dropwise (during the addition, a green solid was generated and the solution color changed from blue-green to dark green). TLC monitoring was performed during the addition. After TLC monitoring showed the reaction was complete, the addition was immediately stopped. n-Pentane (400 mL) was added to the reaction mixture to dilute it, and it was washed with water (400 mL). The aqueous phase was back-extracted with n-pentane (250 mL × 2). The combined organic phases were washed sequentially with 10% sodium sulfite solution (200 mL) and saturated brine (200 mL × 3), dried (MgSO4), and filtered under suction to remove the drying agent. The filtrate was first separated under atmospheric pressure to remove n-pentane (top temperature 36 °C–38 °C), and then distilled under reduced pressure. The fraction between 58°C and 60°C / 30 mmHg was collected (the receiving bottle was placed in liquid nitrogen for cryogenic protection) to give 26.42 g (22%) of the target compound 63 (a pale yellow oil). 1 H NMR (CDCl, 500 MHz) δ: 6.39 (dd, 1H, J = 10.5 Hz and 18.0 Hz), 6.26 (dd, 1H, J = 1.3 Hz and 17.8 Hz), 5.92-6.00 (m, 1H), 5.87 (dd, 1H, J = 1.0 Hz and 10.5 Hz), 5.15-5.23 (m, 2H), 3.37-3.39 (m, 2H). The product contained a certain amount of n-pentane and was used directly in the next step without further purification.

[0216] Step 3: Synthesis of compound 64 Compound 63 (26.42 g, 0.27 mol) was dissolved in n-pentane (1.5 L) in a quartz vessel, and the air in the reaction vessel was replaced with nitrogen (balloon) according to standard procedures. The reaction apparatus was placed in a dark place, stirred, and irradiated with a UV lamp (365 nm, 15 W × 6) at room temperature for 7–14 days (the solution color changed from colorless to reddish purple, then faded to light purple). During the reaction, a small amount of viscous polymer by-product was produced and adhered to the inner wall of the reaction vessel. Every 2–3 days, activated carbon (10 g) and diatomaceous earth (10 g) were added, the mixture was stirred for 10 minutes, and the polymer was removed by suction filtration. The filtrate was then reintroduced into the reaction vessel according to the procedure described above. The reaction was stopped when TLC monitoring indicated that a small amount of starting material remained. The reaction solution was concentrated to half its original volume using a rotary evaporator under reduced pressure (<30 °C), and Br2 was slowly added dropwise to the system until Br2 disappeared (the solution was pale orange). A 10% sodium thiosulfate solution (200 mL) was then added and stirred to decompose excess Br2, at which point the solution faded to colorless. The organic phase was separated, dried (MgSO4), and suction filtered to remove the drying agent. The filtrate was concentrated on a rotary evaporator under reduced pressure (<30 °C for concentration) to give an oil, which was then concentrated with CH3OH (20 mL) to give 6.61 g of crude target compound 64 (a pale yellow oil). The product was used directly in the next reaction without further characterization.

[0217] Step 4: Synthesis of compound 65 Compound 64 (16.00 g, 0.17 mol) was dissolved in CH3OH (320 mL) and 4-methylbenzenesulfonhydrazide (31.00 g, 0.17 mol) was added. The reaction vessel was purged with nitrogen (balloon) according to standard procedures and then refluxed overnight. TLC monitoring indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction solution was cooled to room temperature and concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give a yellow oil. The oil was dissolved in CHCl2 (500 mL) and washed sequentially with 1 M HCl (400 mL × 6) and saturated brine (200 mL), dried (MgSO4), and filtered with suction to remove the drying agent. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give a yellow oil. n-Hexane (50 mL × 2) was added and concentrated several times to give a yellow solid. EtOAc (3 mL) / n-hexane (30 mL) was added to the solid and slurried at room temperature for 1 hour. The solid was collected by suction filtration and dried under oil pump vacuum to give 17.09 g of compound 65 (a pale yellow solid) (combined yield of 63→65 was 10%), melting at 174.7° C.-177.6° C. 1 H NMR (CDCl3, 500 MHz) δ: 7.86 (d, 2H, J = 8.0 Hz), 7.32 (d, 2H, J = 8.0 Hz), 7.21 (brs, 1H), 2.98-3.00 (m, 1H), 2.65-2.68 (m, 1H), 2.43 (s, 3H), 2.16-2.17 (m, 2H), 1.98-2.04 (m, 2H), 1.31-1.32 (m, 2H); 13 C NMR (CDCl3, 126 MHz) δ: 168.36, 144.10, 135.67, 129.74, 128.18, 49.53, 42.05, 36.29, 32.91, 21.76.

[0218] Step 5: Synthesis of Compound 66 Compound 65 (4.23 g, 19 mmol) was dissolved in dry THF (50 mL), and the air in the reaction vessel was replaced with nitrogen (balloon) according to standard procedures. CH3Li (1.6 M solution in diethoxymethane, 42 mL, 67.2 mmol) was slowly added dropwise to the system while stirring in an ice-water bath. After the addition was complete, the reaction was allowed to proceed overnight at room temperature. TLC monitoring indicated the reaction was complete. Water (10 mL) was added to the system in an ice-water bath to quench the reaction. The reaction solution was poured into ice-water (200 mL) and extracted with n-pentane (100 mL × 3). The combined organic phases were washed with 1 M HCl (100 mL × 2) and saturated brine (100 mL), dried (MgSO4), and filtered under vacuum to remove the drying agent. The filtrate was subjected to atmospheric pressure separation to remove the solvent, thereby yielding the crude product of target compound 66 (1.52 g). The product was used directly in the next reaction without further purification.

[0219] Step 6: Synthesis of compound (±)-67 Compound 66 (1.52 g, calculated as 19 mmol) and dichloroacetyl chloride (3.72 g, 25 mmol) were dissolved in dry n-hexane (20 mL) sequentially at room temperature. The air in the reaction vessel was replaced with nitrogen (balloon) according to standard procedures. A solution of triethylamine (2.80 g, 28 mmol) in dry n-hexane (10 mL) was slowly added dropwise at room temperature with stirring. Heat was generated from the system during the addition, and the internal temperature was maintained between 30 and 35 °C by controlling the addition rate. After the addition was complete, the reaction vessel was placed in an oil bath and stirred at 35 °C for 2 h. Dry n-hexane (50 mL) was then added, stirred thoroughly, and the reaction was allowed to proceed overnight at room temperature. TLC monitoring indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction solution was cooled to room temperature and poured into ice water (200 mL). The organic phase was separated and washed successively with 1 M HCl (50 mL), water (200 mL), saturated NaHCO solution (100 mL × 2), and saturated brine (100 mL), dried (MgSO), and filtered under suction to remove the drying agent. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give 1.89 g of crude compound (±)-67 (dark red oil). The product was used directly in the next step without further purification.

[0220] Step 7: Synthesis of compound (±)-68 Zinc powder (3.23 g, 49 mmol) and glacial acetic acid (20 mL) were mixed with stirring, and a solution of freshly prepared compound (±)-67 (1.89 g, 9.9 mmol) in glacial acetic acid (5 mL) was added dropwise at room temperature. After the addition was complete, the reaction mixture was stirred overnight in a 55 °C oil bath under a N atmosphere. TLC monitoring indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction mixture was cooled to room temperature and filtered through diatomaceous earth. The filtrate was diluted with CHCl (200 mL) and washed successively with water (200 mL × 3), saturated NaHCO solution (200 mL), and saturated brine (200 mL), dried (MgSO), and filtered under vacuum to remove the drying agent. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give a dark brown oil, which was then purified by column chromatography [V(EtOAc) / V(n-hexane)=0 / 1→1 / 20] to give 0.31 g of crude compound (±)-68 (dark brown oil), which was used directly in the next reaction without further purification.

[0221] Step 8: Synthesis of compound (±)-69 Under a N2 atmosphere, t-BuOK (1.42 g, 13 mmol) was added to dry THF (5 mL) and stirred in an ice-water bath to form a suspension. Then, tert-butyl diethylphosphonoacetate (3.20 g, 13 mmol) was added dropwise. After the addition was complete, the reaction was allowed to proceed in an ice-water bath for 1 hour, and then a solution of freshly prepared compound (±)-68 (0.31 g, 2.5 mmol) in dry THF (10 mL) was added dropwise. After the addition was complete, the mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. TLC monitoring indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction mixture was poured into ice-water (100 mL), stirred, and extracted with CHCl (30 mL × 3). The organic phases were combined by extraction, washed with saturated brine, dried (MgSO), and filtered under vacuum to remove the drying agent. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give a dark brown oil, which was then purified by column chromatography [V(EtOAc) / V(n-hexane)=0 / 1→1 / 12] to give 0.40 g of crude compound (±)-69 (dark brown oil), which was used directly in the next reaction without further purification.

[0222] Step 9: Synthesis of compound (±)-70 Compound (±)-69 (0.40 g) was dissolved in CH3NO2 (10 mL) and stirred at room temperature. DBU (3.0 g) was added dropwise. After the addition was complete, the reaction mixture was refluxed under a N2 atmosphere for 1 week. TLC monitoring indicated that a large amount of unreacted starting material remained. The reaction was then quenched. The reaction solution was cooled to room temperature, poured into ice water (100 mL), and extracted with C2Cl2 (50 mL × 2). The combined organic phases were washed with ice water (100 mL) and saturated brine (150 mL), dried (MgSO4), and filtered to remove the drying agent. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give a dark brown oil, which was then purified by column chromatography [V(EtOAc) / V(n-hexane) = 0 / 1 → 1 / 9] to give 0.10 g of the desired product (±)-70 (pale yellow oil). 1 H NMR (acetone-d6, 500 MHz) δ: 4.77 (d, 1H, J = 12.0 Hz), 4.65 (d, 1H, J = 12.0 Hz), 2.65 (d, 1H, J = 18.5 Hz), 2.57 (d, 1H, J = 18.5 Hz), 2.33-2.36 (m, 1H), 2.00-2.04 (m, 1H), 1.98-1.99 (m, 2H), 1.81-1.83 (m, 1H), 1.41 (s, 9H), 1.32-1.36 (m, 1H), 1.23-1.28 (m, 2H), 1.01-1.04 (m, 2H); ESI-HRMS: (m / z) C 15 H 24 NO4([M+H] + ) calculated value: 282.1700, measured value: 282.1702.

[0223] Step 10: Synthesis of compound (±)-71 Compound (±)-70 (78 mg, 0.28 mmol) was dissolved in CHCl (1 mL) and TFA (0.5 mL) was added dropwise slowly under ice-water bath. After the addition was complete, the reaction was allowed to proceed at room temperature for 4 hours. TLC monitoring indicated the reaction was complete. The reaction mixture was poured into ice-water (5 mL) and extracted with CHCl (2 mL × 3). The combined organic phases were washed with saturated brine (2 mL × 2), dried (MgSO), and filtered to remove the drying agent. The filtrate was concentrated on a rotary evaporator to give a yellow oil. The oil was purified by column chromatography [V(EtOAc) / V(n-hexane) = 1 / 5 → 1 / 0] to give the desired product (±)-71 (colorless oil) 32 mg (51%). 1 H NMR (acetone-d6+D2O (1 drop), 500 MHz) δ: 4.70 (d, 1H, J = 11.5 Hz), 4.53 (d, 1H, J = 11.5 Hz), 2.61 (d, 1H, J = 19.0 Hz), 2.55 (d, 1H, J = 18.5 Hz), 2.42-2.46 (m, 1H), 2.12-2.16 (m, 1H), 1.99-2.03 (m, 2H), 1.84-1.86 (m, 1H), 1.51-1.56 (m, 1H), 1.20-1.22 (m, 2H), 1.13-1.15 (m, 2H); ESI-HRMS: (m / z) C 11 H 16 NO4([M+H] + ) calculated value: 226.1074, measured value: 226.1070.

[0224] Step 11: Synthesis of compound (±)-I-13 Compound (±)-71 (25 mg, 0.11 mmol) was dissolved in CHOH (0.5 mL) and 10% Pd(OH) / C (5 mg) was added. The reaction vessel was purged with hydrogen (balloon) according to standard procedures and stirred overnight at room temperature. TLC monitoring indicated the reaction was complete (typically within 12 h). The drying agent was removed by filtration. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure on a rotary evaporator to give a white solid. EtOAc (0.5 mL) was added and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h to form a slurry. The solid was collected by suction filtration and dried to give the desired product (±)-I-13 (white solid), 11 mg (51%). 1 H NMR (CD3OD+D2O (1 drop), 500 MHz) δ: 3.06 (s, 2H), 2.67 (d, 1H, J = 18.0 Hz), 2.43 (d, 1H, J = 18.0 Hz), 2.31-2.32 (m, 1H), 2.20-2.22 (m, 1H), 1.97-2.02 (m, 1H), 1.88-1.89 (m, 2H), 1.40-1.51 (m, 2H), 1.16-1.21 (m, 1H), 1.00-1.06 (m, 2H); ESI-HRMS: (m / z) C 11 H 18 NO2([M+H] + ) calculated value: 196.1332, measured value: 196.1341.

[0240] [Example 28] In vitro binding of compounds to the human recombinant calcium ion channel Cav2.2 / β3 / α2δ-1 The voltage-gated calcium ion channel α2δ subunit has four subtypes: α2δ-1, α2δ-2, α2δ-3, and α2δ-4. Of these, α2δ-1 is the subtype that mediates chronic neuropathic pain (Field, MJ et al.; Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 2006, 103, 17537-17542). Therefore, the binding strength of a compound to α2δ-1 provides a direct indicator for measuring the analgesic effect on chronic neuropathic pain (Calandre, EP et al.; Expert Rev. Neurother. 2016, 16, 1263-1277).

[0241] The in vitro binding strength of the compounds of the present application to the human recombinant calcium ion channel Cav2.2 / β3 / α2δ-1 was measured essentially according to a previously published method (Gee, NS et al.; J. Biol. Chem. 1996, 271, 5768-5776; Marais, E. et al.; Mol. Pharmacol. 2001, 59, 1243-1248). CHO cells expressing the human recombinant calcium ion channel Cav2.2 / β3 / α2δ-1 were used for the test. After the cell membrane was separated by a conventional method, 3 μg of cell membrane was added to each well containing modified HEPES / KOH buffer (pH 7.4) as the test solution. Then, 5 nM [ 3 [H]gabapentin and six concentrations (3, 9, 27, 81, 243, and 729 nM) of test compound were added, and the test system was incubated at 25°C for 120 minutes. Nonspecific binding was obtained by replacing the test compound with 10 μM gabapentin in the above test system. After the incubation was completed, the cell membranes were collected by filtration, washed with 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), and then bound to the cell membranes. 3 The radioactivity of [H] gabapentin was tested by liquid scintillation counting. 3 H]gabapentin competitively bound to the human recombinant calcium ion channel Cav2.2 / β3 / α2δ-1. 3 The binding inhibition rate of [H]gabapentin to the human recombinant calcium ion channel Cav2.2 / β3 / α2δ-1 was calculated according to the following formula: Inhibition rate = [(II U ) / (I0-I U )] × 100% During the ceremony, I is the test compound and 3 H] is the radioactivity corresponding to simultaneous co-incubation of gabapentin with the human recombinant calcium ion channel Cav2.2 / β3 / α2δ-1. I0 is the time when the test compound is not added to the incubation system [ 3H] is the radioactivity corresponding to the co-incubation of gabapentin and the human recombinant calcium ion channel Cav2.2 / β3 / α2δ-1, I U 10 μM gabapentin and [ 3 H] is the radioactivity corresponding to simultaneous co-incubation of gabapentin with the human recombinant calcium ion channel Cav2.2 / β3 / α2δ-1.

[0242] Human recombinant calcium ion channel Cav2.2 / β3 / α2δ-1 3 The concentration of the test compound that inhibits 50% of the binding of [H]gabapentin is defined as IC 50 The IC was calculated by nonlinear least squares regression analysis using the above inhibition rate. 50 was calculated (MathIQ®, ID Business Solutions Ltd., UK). The test results are shown in the table below.

[0243] [Table 10]

[0244] As can be seen from the activity data of this example, the compound of general formula I in the present application has good activity in binding to human recombinant calcium ion channel Cav2.2 / β3 / α2δ-1, and can be used to prepare therapeutic drugs for chronic neuropathic pain, epilepsy and anxiety.

[0245] Gamma-aminobutyric acid drugs acting on voltage-gated calcium ion channel α2δ-1 ligands, such as gabapentin and pregabalin, have analgesic effects on chronic neuropathic pain, as well as other effects, such as antiepileptic effects (pregabalin, approved by the US FDA) and anxiolytic effects (pregabalin, approved by the European Medicines Agency). These effects are related to the binding of the drug to the voltage-gated calcium ion channel α2δ-1 ligand. Therefore, the compounds of general formula I in the present application can also be used to prepare therapeutic drugs for epilepsy and anxiety.

[0246] [Example 29] Analgesic effects of compounds in a rat model of chronic neuropathic pain Representative compounds of the present application, (±)-I-7, (±)-I-3, and (±)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, were orally administered at 30 mg / kg to Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats in a SNI model, and pharmacodynamic evaluation was performed.

[0247] Establishment of the SNI model: Surgery was performed according to aseptic surgical techniques. Various surgical instruments, including scalpels, tweezers, suture needles / threads, and surgical cotton, were sterilized before surgery. The animals were anesthetized by intraperitoneal injection of 50 mg / kg of Zoletil® 50 solution and positioned in a lateral decubitus position. The surgical site on the animal's lower body was shaved and then disinfected with alternating iodophor and 75% alcohol. The skin at the top of the left hind paw was incised, and the muscles were smoothly separated to expose the sciatic nerve trunk and its three branches: the tibial nerve, common peroneal nerve, and peroneal nerve. The tibial nerve and common peroneal nerve were ligated and severed, while the peroneal nerve was preserved. After surgery, the wound was sutured in layers, and 25% ampicillin (1 mL / kg) was administered intraperitoneally to prevent infection. The animals received standard nursing care. In the sham group, only the sciatic nerve and its nerve branches were exposed, and the nerve was not ligated or cut, but the other operations were the same as those in the model group.

[0248] Mechanical pain threshold detection: Using a von Frey test fiber, the mechanical pain threshold of each animal's plantar paw on the operated side was measured on days 1, 3, and 7 after surgery. The "up-and-down" method was used to detect mechanical pain thresholds at stimulation intensities of 0.4, 0.6, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 15 g. During testing, the test fiber was used to stimulate the lateral mid-plantar area of ​​the rat's left hind paw in a vertical direction for 6–8 seconds at 5-second intervals. Pain responses were indicated by the animal's apparent paw withdrawal, paw licking, or paw lift during each test. Starting on day 11 after surgery, the animals were placed in the experimental environment for acclimation, and the acclimation process was continued for 3 days, 15 minutes per day. On day 13, after acclimation was complete, the baseline mechanical pain hypersensitivity was measured. Mechanical pain hypersensitivity was expressed as the 50% paw withdrawal threshold (PWT), calculated as follows: 50% PWT (g) = 10 xf+kδwhere xf is the logarithm of the fiber test force, k is the nominal value, and δ is the average interval of the logarithm of the fiber test force.

[0249] Pharmacodynamic evaluation: Based on the results of the baseline threshold detection on postoperative day 13, animals in the model group without mechanical pain hypersensitivity (i.e., PWT >4 g) were excluded, and the remaining successfully modeled animals were used for formal testing. On postoperative day 14, various test compounds were newly formulated. Pregabalin was directly dissolved in 0.9% sodium chloride at a dose of 30 mg / kg to obtain a solution of the desired concentration. (±)-I-7, (±)-I-3, and (±)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate salts were also completely dissolved in 0.9% sodium chloride at a dose of 30 mg / kg (free base equivalent). Successfully modeled animals were randomly divided into five groups, each with eight animals. Seven additional animals were selected for the sham group. After labeling and weighing, the various test drugs and vehicle (0.9% sodium chloride) were administered orally at a dose of 10 mL / kg. Mechanical hyperalgesia was detected in the left hind paw at 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 24 hours after administration. Evaluation was performed blinded, and the detection method was the same as described above. The area under the mechanical pain threshold-time curve (AUC) was calculated using GraphPad Prism version 8.0.1 software. The analgesic intensity of rats in the SNI model was expressed as the maximum possible effect (MPE), where %MPE = [(AUC of the treatment group - AUC of the vehicle group) / (AUC of the sham group - AUC of the vehicle group)] × 100.

[0250] Results and Discussion: Data were expressed as mean ± standard error (SEM) and plotted using GraphPad Prism version 8.0.1 software. Data between groups were compared using one-way analysis of variance, with post-hoc testing performed using Dunnett's test. * is a significant difference (p<0.05), ** p<0.01, ***indicates p<0.001. The statistical results are detailed in the mechanical pain threshold-time chart (Figure 3A) and the area under the mechanical pain threshold-time curve chart (Figure 3B). As can be seen from the figure below, similar to the active drug pregabalin, (±)-I-7, (±)-I-3, and (±)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate had varying degrees of inhibitory effects on mechanical pain hypersensitivity in SNI rats after administration at a dose of 30 mg / kg (free base equivalent). The area under the mechanical pain threshold-time curve in the (±)-I-7 and (±)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate groups was significantly improved compared to the vehicle control group. The maximum possible efficacy (%MPE) of the four compounds, i.e., the positive drugs pregabalin, (±)-I-7, (±)-I-3, and (±)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, was 110.90%, 73.63%, 44.80%, and 95.95%, respectively. The results show that the representative compounds of the present application, (±)-I-7, (±)-I-3, and (±)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, all have a certain degree of analgesic effect in the SNI model at a dose of 30 mg / kg (free base equivalent), and can be used to prepare therapeutic drugs for chronic neuropathic pain.

[0251] [Example 30] Analgesic effects of compounds in a rat model of chronic neuropathic pain The pharmacodynamics of (-)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, (-)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate were evaluated in a Sprague-Dawley rat model of spinal cord injury (SNI) after oral gavage at 10 mg / kg (free base equivalent).

[0252] The model construction method and mechanical pain threshold detection method were the same as those in Example 29.

[0253] Pharmacodynamic evaluation: The specific detection method was the same as in Example 29. Various test compounds were freshly prepared 14 days after animal surgery. Pregabalin was directly dissolved in 0.9% sodium chloride at a dose of 10 mg / kg to obtain a solution of the desired concentration. Representative compounds of the present application, (-)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, (-)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, were used at a dose of 10 mg / kg (calculated as the free base) together with a vehicle containing 5% PEG 400 (polyethylene glycol 400) and 95% 0.9% sodium chloride. That is, they were first dissolved in 5% PEG 400 to a final volume, then added to 95% 0.9% sodium chloride solution to a final volume, and vortexed until fully dissolved. Successful modeling animals were randomly divided into five groups, each containing six animals. Additionally, five animals were selected as a sham group. After labeling and weighing, the animals were given various test drugs and a vehicle (5% PEG 400 + 95% 0.9% sodium chloride) at a volume of 10 mL / kg by oral gavage. Mechanical hyperalgesia was detected in the left hind paw at 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 24 hours after administration. The evaluation was performed in a blinded manner, and the detection method was the same as above. The area under the mechanical pain threshold-time curve (AUC) and maximum possible effect (MPE) were calculated using the same method as in Example 29.

[0254] Results and Discussion: Data are expressed as mean ± standard error of the mean and plotted using GraphPad Prism version 8.0.1 software. Data between groups were compared by one-way analysis of variance, followed by post-hoc testing using Dunnett's test. * is a significant difference (p<0.05), ** p<0.01, ***indicates p<0.001. The statistical results are shown in detail in the mechanical pain threshold-time chart (FIG. 4A) and the area under the mechanical pain threshold-time curve chart (FIG. 4B). As can be seen from FIGS. 4A and 4B, the representative compounds of the present application, (-)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, (-)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, all exhibited varying degrees of inhibitory effects on mechanical pain hypersensitivity in nerve injury-preserved model rats after oral gavage at a dose of 10 mg / kg (free base equivalent). Among these, the area under the mechanical pain threshold-time curve in the (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate group was significantly improved compared to that in the vehicle control group, and this effect was significantly greater than that of the active drug pregabalin at 10 mg / kg. The maximum possible effects (MPE) of pregabalin, (-)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, (-)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate were calculated to be 23.04%, 30.22%, 48.50%, 18.53% and 69.09%, respectively. The above results indicate that (1) the representative compounds of the present application, (-)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, (-)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, exhibit superior analgesic effects in the rat SNI model and can be used to prepare therapeutic drugs for chronic neuropathic pain; and (2) the analgesic activity of the compound (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate is higher than that of (-)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, and the analgesic activity of the compound (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate is higher than that of (-)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, suggesting that the analgesic activity of the compounds of the present application is stereochemically dependent. The results of the in vitro binding studies of (-)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, (-)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate in Example 28 are consistent with these conclusions.

[0255] [Example 31] Antiepileptic effects of compounds in a mouse epilepsy model (maximal electroshock model (MES)) A negative vehicle control group, a positive drug control group (pregabalin and gabapentin), and a test group for the compound of the present invention were established. Male ICR mice weighing 22±2 g were selected. Both test and control drugs were dissolved in 10% saline solution of 1,2-propanediol (95% v / v) supplemented with DMSO (5% v / v) and administered orally at a volume of 10 mL / kg. After a 12-hour fast, the mice were administered the compound of the present invention or a control drug according to their body weight. After a set time (2 hours for pregabalin, 1 hour for gabapentin, and 3 hours for the compound of the present invention), electrical stimulation was administered to induce generalized tonic-clonic seizure behavior. The induction model was performed using a YLS-9A electrophysiological stimulator (Shanghai Xinruan Information Technology Co., Ltd.) with the following parameters: configuration 8, stimulation voltage 160 V, and wave number 90. For electrical stimulation, both ears of the mice were first wiped with saline, and then a single electrical stimulation was administered using ear clip electrodes. Tonic extension of the hind paws was used as the criterion for epileptic seizures. Animals showing tonic extension of the hind paws were considered to be unprotected by the drug, while animals without tonic extension of the hind paws were considered to be protected by the drug. The animal's response was observed and recorded, and the data obtained were compiled to calculate the protection rate of the compound.

[0256] The test results are shown in the following table.

[0257] [Table 11]

[0258] Median effective dose (ED) of the test compound for animal protection 50 ) was calculated by the least squares method (Graphpad Prism 5) using the dose-protection rate curve. The fitting curve is shown in Figure 5.

[0259] As a result of calculation, the ED of (+)-I-3 50EDTA of (+)-I-4 was 6.52 mg / kg. 50 was 21.51 mg / kg, and the ED of pregabalin 50 The results above indicate that (+)-I-3 and (+)-I-4, which are representative compounds of the present application, exhibit potent antiepileptic effects in the maximal electroshock model in mice and can be used to prepare antiepileptic drugs.

[0260] [Example 32] Antiepileptic effects of compounds in a mouse epilepsy model (6Hz psychomotor seizure model) A negative vehicle control group, a positive drug control group (pregabalin and gabapentin), and a test group for the compounds of the present application were established. Male C57BL / 6 mice weighing 20±2 g were selected. Both test and control drugs were dissolved in 10% saline solution of 1,2-propanediol (95% v / v) supplemented with DMSO (5% v / v) and administered orally by gavage at a volume of 10 mL / kg. After a 12-hour fast, the mice were administered the compounds of the present application or control drugs. Then, after a set time period (2 hours for pregabalin, 1 hour for gabapentin, 1 hour for levetiracetam, and 3 hours for the compounds of the present application), epileptic seizure behavior was induced by 6 Hz electrical stimulation. In the induction model, stimulation was performed using a Model 4100 stimulator (AM Systems, the United States). The mouse's back of the neck was manually fixed in a feeding cage. Corneal electrodes moistened with saline were lightly contacted to both corneas of the mouse, and the mouse was then electrically stimulated with a foot on the stimulator. Stimulation parameters were 6 Hz, unidirectional square wave 32 mA, pulse width 0.2 ms, and duration 3 s. The stimulation was timed with a stopwatch. After the end of electrical stimulation, mice exhibiting seizure behavior for less than 7 s were considered to be protected from epilepsy by the drug, while mice exhibiting seizure behavior for more than 7 s were considered not to be protected from epilepsy by the drug. The animal's response was observed and recorded, and the data obtained were compiled to calculate the protection rate of the compound.

[0261] Statistical Methods: The protection rates of the various treatment groups were compared with the vehicle control group, respectively, and Fisher's exact probability test was performed.

[0262] The test results are shown in the table below.

[0263] [Table 12]

[0264] The above results indicate that the representative compounds of the present application, (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, exhibit very strong antiepileptic effects in a mouse epileptic seizure model induced by 6 Hz electrical stimulation, and can be used to prepare antiepileptic drugs.

[0265] [Example 33] Antiepileptic effects of compounds in a mouse epilepsy model (subcutaneous injection of pentylenetetrazole (sc-PTZ) model) A negative vehicle control group, a positive drug control group (pregabalin and gabapentin), and a test group for the compounds of the present application were established. Male ICR mice weighing 22±2 g were selected. Both test and control drugs were dissolved in 10% saline solution of 1,2-propanediol (95% v / v) supplemented with DMSO (5% v / v) and administered intraperitoneally at a dose of 10 mL / kg. After a 12-hour fast, the mice were administered the compounds of the present application or control drugs. Then, after a set time (2 hours for pregabalin, 1 hour for gabapentin, and 3 hours for the compounds of the present application), pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) was subcutaneously injected to induce epileptic seizure behavior. In the induction model, pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) was dissolved in saline and administered to the mice via subcutaneous injection (10 mL / kg, dose 100 mg / kg). After PTZ injection, the behavior of the mice was observed for 1 hour, and the latency and number of mice that developed convulsive seizures, clonic seizures, tonic seizures, and died after PTZ injection were recorded.

[0266] Statistical methods: The protection rate and mortality rate of various treatment groups were compared with the vehicle control group, respectively, using Fisher's exact probability test. The seizure duration and latency were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance.

[0267] The test results are as follows:

[0268] [Table 13]

[0269] Subcutaneous injection of pentylenetetrazole (PTZ) induces severe convulsive behavior in mice. In the vehicle control group, 8 / 8 mice (100%) developed generalized clonic seizures, 6 / 8 mice (75%) developed generalized tonic-clonic seizures, and 6 / 8 mice (75%) died. The positive control, pregabalin (PGB), tended to reduce generalized clonic seizures (100% → 62.5%), significantly reducing the incidence of tonic seizures (75% → 12.5%) and mortality (75% → 12.5%). (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate tended to reduce generalized clonic seizures (100% → 60%), significantly reducing the incidence of tonic seizures (75% → 0%) and mortality (75% → 0%). (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate showed a trend toward a reduction in generalized clonic seizures (100% → 60%), and also a trend toward a reduction in the incidence of tonic seizures (75% → 20%) and mortality (75% → 30%). Gabapentin (GBP) did not significantly improve seizure incidence or mortality at this dose.

[0270] For the representative compounds of this application, (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, as well as the control drugs, the latency period at a certain stage was defined as the time from subcutaneous injection of pentylenetetrazole to the onset of various epilepsy-related phenomena in the above test. As shown in Figure 6, pregabalin (PGB), (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate significantly prolonged the latency periods for generalized clonic seizures, tonic seizures, and death at a dose of 30 mg / kg (free base equivalent), while gabapentin (GBP) had no effect at this dose.

[0271] The above results indicate that the representative compounds of the present application, (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, have potent inhibitory effects on epileptic seizures and death due to epilepsy in a mouse epilepsy model induced by subcutaneous injection of pentylenetetrazole, and can be used to prepare antiepileptic drugs.

[0272] [Example 34] Pharmacokinetic study of compounds in rats Male SD rats were fasted for 12 hours before the test and then allowed to drink water ad libitum. The compounds of the present application, (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate or (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, were dissolved in 10% distilled water of 1,2-propanediol and administered orally or intravenously to three male SD rats per group. At 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours, and 24 hours after oral administration, or at 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours, 8 hours, and 24 hours after intravenous administration, 0.2 mL of blood was collected from the retroorbital venous plexus, placed in EDTA-K2 test tubes, and centrifuged at 11,000 rpm for 5 minutes to separate plasma, which was then frozen in a refrigerator at -20°C. The concentrations of the drug prototypes were measured by HPLC-ESI-MS according to a validated method, and pharmacokinetic parameters were calculated using WinNonLin. The results are shown in the table below.

[0273] [Table 14]

[0274] As can be seen from the above data, the representative compounds of the present application, (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, are rapidly absorbed after oral administration and exhibit very high bioavailability, making them suitable for oral administration.

[0275] [Example 35] Testing the effects of compounds on motor function in rats All test drugs were dissolved in 10% saline solution of 1,2-propanediol (95% v / v) containing DMSO (5% v / v) and administered orally at a volume of 10 mL / kg. A negative vehicle control group, a positive drug control group (pregabalin (PGB) at 10 mg / kg and 30 mg / kg), and test groups ((+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate 10 mg / kg (free base equivalent), (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate 10 mg / kg (free base equivalent), (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate 30 mg / kg (free base equivalent), and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate 30 mg / kg (free base equivalent)) were established. Male SD rats weighing 200–250 g were selected, with 10 rats per treatment group. The rotarod test apparatus used was a YLS-31A fatigue rotarod (Shanghai Xinruan Information Technology Co., Ltd.), with a constant rotation speed of 6 rpm. A screening test was conducted on day 1. The rats were placed on the rotarod by pinching the tip of their tails. After the rats maintained their balance on the rotarod and moved in sync with the rotarod, the tails were released. The number of rats that fell within the next minute was recorded and counted. Rats that fell three times within one minute were excluded and not used for subsequent drug evaluation. A drug evaluation test was conducted on day 2. The rats were fasted for 8 hours before the test, and then a single rotarod test was conducted as a pre-dose time point (BL), followed by drug administration via force-feeding. The rotarod test was conducted once each at 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and 24 hours after administration. The number of rat falls per minute was recorded and counted. Rats that fell three times within one minute were considered to have "motor dysfunction" due to drug toxicity. The degree of "motor dysfunction" (rotarod falls) at a particular time point in each treatment group was calculated as the number of animals with "motor dysfunction" in the group as a percentage of the total number of animals in the group.

[0276] The test results are shown in Figure 7.

[0277] The rotarod test is a classic test for measuring the impairment of a compound on the motor function of animals. The rat rotarod test was used to evaluate the effects of the representative compounds of the present application, (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, on rat motor function. As can be seen from Figure 7, at a dose of 10 mg / kg (free base equivalent), (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, and the control group, pregabalin (PGB), had no significant effect on the rats' rotarod behavior. At a dose of 30 mg / kg (free base equivalent), the PGB group showed a clear toxic reaction, with the greatest effect on the rats' rotarod behavior 4 hours after administration. The (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate group and the (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate group showed a smaller effect on the rats' rotarod behavior than the PGB group.

[0278] [Example 36] Acute toxicity test of compounds in rats The preliminary acute toxicity of (±)-I-7, (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate in male SD rats was evaluated.

[0279] After a one-week acclimation period, SD rats were used in preliminary acute toxicity studies. Compounds were prepared fresh on the day of testing. Pregabalin and (±)-I-7 were directly dissolved in 0.9% sodium chloride to obtain solutions of the desired concentrations. (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate were used together with a vehicle of 95% 0.9% sodium chloride plus 5% PEG 400; that is, they were first dissolved in 5% PEG 400 to a final volume, then added to a final volume of 95% 0.9% sodium chloride solution, and vortexed until completely dissolved. Animals were labeled, weighed, and randomly assigned to groups of 2–4. Each test compound and vehicle (5% PEG 400 + 95% 0.9% sodium chloride) were administered orally by gavage at a volume of 10 mL / kg. Clinical signs of each animal were observed and recorded 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6, and 24 hours after administration. Clinical signs were coded as follows: 0 (no abnormalities), 1 (mild tremor), 2 (unsteady gait), 3 (prone position), 4 (startle reflex), 5 (dyspnea), 6 (loss of righting reflex), 7 (eyelid closure), 8 (shortness of breath), and × (death of the animal).

[0280] Results and Discussion: The results are shown in the table below. When compound (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate was administered by oral gavage at a dose of 164.5 mg / kg (free base equivalent) and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate at a dose of 163.8 mg / kg (free base equivalent), all animals in the two groups were consistent with the animals in the vehicle control group and showed no obvious abnormal behavior from 0 to 24 hours after administration. When (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate were administered by oral gavage at a dose of 300 mg / kg (free base equivalent), two animals in the (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate group assumed a prone position just 1 hour after administration, one of which also showed mild tremors and closed eyelids. In the (+)-I-4 group, one animal assumed a prone position just 1 hour after administration, and the other animal assumed a prone position both 1 and 3 hours after administration. When another compound, (±)-I-7, was administered by oral gavage at a dose of 300 mg / kg (free base equivalent), each animal assumed a prone position 1 and 2 hours after administration, two of which also showed mild tremors. Twenty-four hours after administration, no obvious abnormalities were observed in any of the animals administered with (±)-I-7, (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, or (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, consistent with the results in the vehicle control group. The test results showed that oral administration of (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, a representative compound of the present application, at a dose of 164.5 mg / kg (free base equivalent), and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate at a dose of 163.8 mg / kg (free base equivalent) to male rats did not result in neurotoxicity. Combined with the doses for analgesic and antiepileptic effects disclosed in Examples 29-33 of the present application, it can be concluded that the representative compounds of the present application, (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, have a wide safety margin. Representative compounds of the present application, (±)-I-7, (+)-I-3 p-toluenesulfonate, and (+)-I-4 p-toluenesulfonate, can induce relatively obvious acute toxic reactions in animals at a high dose of 300 mg / kg (free base equivalent), but no animals died.
