Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of medicinal chemistry, and more particularly to a series of crystalline forms of ketoamide derivatives and methods for preparing them, as well as active pharmaceutical ingredients and pharmaceutical compositions containing these crystalline forms. [Background technology]

[0002] SARS-CoV-2 (acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2), along with SARS-CoV-1 and MERS-CoV, is a highly pathogenic, large-scale zoonotic virus belonging to the Coronaviridae family. Unlike some other coronaviruses such as HCoV-NL63, HCoV-229E, HCoV-OC43, and HCoV-HKU1, these three viruses can cause severe respiratory illness. The pathogen of COVID-19 is the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which belongs to the Coronaviridae family and causes respiratory, hepatic, intestinal, and neurological disorders in mammals. Humans infected with SARS-CoV-2 exhibit a variety of clinical symptoms, with fever, respiratory symptoms, cough, and shortness of breath being the main common symptoms. If the infection persists, it can develop into severe pneumonia and cause serious complications such as respiratory failure, shock, and organ failure. Some patients with mild symptoms or those who have been discharged from the hospital may experience relapses after recovery. Even more serious is that this virus is not only highly infectious but can also be transmitted through asymptomatic carriers or those with symptoms or pre-symptomatic infections.

[0003] During coronavirus infection in a host, the main protease (M PRO, also known as 3CLPRO), an enzyme essential for viral replication, is a type of cysteine ​​hydrolase capable of cleaving polyproteins at multiple sites within the virus to produce multiple active functional proteins. The 3CLPRO sequence is highly conserved among coronaviruses and is crucial for the normal function of coronaviruses. Because inhibition of 3CLPRO can not only effectively kill coronaviruses but also alleviate immune imbalances in infected host cells, 3CLPRO has become a key target in the current development of broad-spectrum anticoronavirus drugs, and 3CLPRO inhibitors are attractive targets in the field of antiviral chemotherapy.

[0004] The following compounds are 3CLPRO inhibitors that have been reported to date. S-217622 is an oral treatment for COVID-19 developed by Shionogi & Co., Ltd., which efficiently inhibits 3CLPRO in the novel coronavirus and exerts an antiviral effect. In preclinical trials, S-217622 was confirmed to strongly affect 3CLPRO activity in vitro, with an IC50 value of 0.013 μM and an EC50 value of 0.37 μM. Paxlovid is an oral treatment for COVID-19 developed by Pfizer in the United States, and consists of the 3CL protease inhibitors nirmatrelvir (PF-07321332) and ritonavir. This drug is currently the most effective oral medication on the market, and clinical trials have shown that it reduces the risk of death related to COVID-19 by 89%. TIFF0007875383000001.tif48170

[0005] A series of ketoamide derivatives have been reported in patent PCT / CN2022 / 117124. In vitro activity data shows that some of the compounds exhibit good in vitro anticoronavirus activity at the cellular level without cytotoxicity, with significantly higher exposure levels, slower clearance rates, longer half-lives, and superior pharmacokinetic properties. Among these, compound 1 (Example 1, formula (I)) shows relatively good overall performance and is considered to have good drug discovery potential. TIFF0007875383000002.tif45170

[0006] Crystalline form screening is one of the most important aspects of drug development. For a given compound, the physicochemical properties of its free form, various salt forms, and corresponding crystal forms are still unknown. Therefore, finding a suitable crystal form, while further considering its drug potential, and providing multiple intermediate products and / or active pharmaceutical ingredient options for subsequent drug development is of great significance to drug development. [Overview of the project] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

[0007] This invention discloses a series of crystalline forms of compounds of formula (I), which exhibit good drug discovery potential (stability, flowability, compressibility, solubility, bioavailability, etc.) and provide a variety of active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) options for subsequent drug development. TIFF0007875383000003.tif51170 [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] The above-mentioned objectives of the present invention are achieved by the following technical solutions.

[0009] Regarding the characterization of the crystalline form of a compound, as those skilled in the art will understand, for a specific crystalline form of a particular compound, the 2θ angle of each diffraction peak in the powder X-ray diffraction (XRPD) pattern in repeated experiments will vary due to the influence of the equipment, operating method, sample purity, and human factors during the characterization process, and the range of this variation (error range) is usually within ±0.2°. Furthermore, as those skilled in the art will understand, the stability and reproducibility of diffraction peaks can also be affected by the combination of the 2θ angle and absorption intensity (peak height) of each diffraction peak in the powder X-ray diffraction pattern. Specifically, diffraction peaks with strong absorption intensity, good separation, and a small 2θ angle have good stability and reproducibility and can be used to characterize a specific crystalline form. However, diffraction peaks with a large 2θ angle and / or poor separation and / or weak relative intensity can vary greatly due to the influence of the equipment, operating method, sample purity, and human factors, and may not be reproducible even with repeated experiments. Therefore, such absorption peaks are not necessary diffraction peaks for characterizing crystalline forms for those skilled in the art. More specifically, the diffraction peaks in this invention are selected based on common practice in the relevant art regarding the characterization of crystal forms, taking into account factors such as the 2θ angle and absorption intensity (peak height), and are grouped according to their stability and reproducibility.

[0010] As those skilled in the art will understand, the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) curve and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) curve of a sample may vary in test results for samples from the same batch and / or different batches due to the influence of the equipment, detection conditions, inspector, etc. Therefore, based on common knowledge in the art regarding the characterization of crystal forms, the present invention sets the variation range of the starting point of the endothermic and exothermic peaks in the DSC thermogram to ±3°C, and the variation range of the weight loss value in the TGA thermogram to ±1%.

[0011] Unless otherwise specified, "room temperature" in this invention means 25±5℃, and "the thermogravimetric analysis curve (TGA) does not show a significant weight loss" in this invention means that the weight loss before the detection endpoint temperature is 1% or less.

[0012] As those skilled in the art will understand, once the preparation of the compound is complete, it is not possible for the technician to further investigate the specific crystalline form of compound (I). Therefore, the compound of formula (I) may exist in the form of anhydrous, hydrate, or solvate, where the “solvent” in the solvate is an organic solvent, including but not limited to methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, isopropanol, acetone, butanone, acetonitrile, dichloromethane, trichloromethane, ethyl acetate, toluene, and others commonly used in the art.

[0162] Crystalline form V of the compound of formula (I) was relatively stable under high-temperature conditions compared to the compound of formula (I) prepared in Example 1.

[0163] As described above, when held in an open environment, crystalline form I of the compound of formula (I) was relatively stable under high temperature, high temperature and high humidity conditions, and high humidity conditions, while crystalline forms IV and V were relatively stable under high temperature conditions.

[0164] Furthermore, the inventor discovered the following during the experimental process and further research:

[0165] Crystal form II is obtained by cooling in a cyclohexane-toluene solvent system and then evaporating it. After vacuum drying the evaporated crystal form II at room temperature, the sample remains in crystal form II, suggesting that crystal form II has high stability. Crystal form III is obtained by crystallization by prolonged stirring in a methanol / isopropyl ether system at 10°C, and those skilled in the art will understand that crystal form III has high stability.

[0166] Crystal form VIII is an unstable crystal form, and during the post-processing process (vacuum drying at room temperature), a crystal transition occurs, transforming into crystal form V. Crystal form V is ultimately obtained by transitioning from the intermediate metastable crystal form (crystal form VIII), and it was found to be highly stable.

[0167] Example 16: Crystallographic thermal transition experiment

[0168] Using different crystal forms as starting materials, samples were placed on a BTS500 heating stage, and XRPD testing was performed at room temperature. Subsequently, the samples were heated to a selected temperature at 10°C / min, held for 10 minutes, and then XRPD testing was performed again at this temperature. After cooling to room temperature, XRPD testing was performed again. The results are shown in Table 4.

[0170] From the experimental results above, it was revealed that crystal forms V and VI have high stability under heating conditions, and that crystal form II transforms into crystal form I under heating conditions, thereby demonstrating that crystal form I has high stability under high-temperature conditions.

[0171] Furthermore, the role of crystal form II has been demonstrated to be that it can be used as an intermediate crystal form to further prepare some of the other stable crystal forms of the present invention. Thus, the crystal forms of the compound of formula (I) described above of the present invention have at least one of the following effects, such as stability, making it possible to provide a variety of intermediate products and / or raw material options for large-scale production of active pharmaceutical ingredients and downstream processes of pharmaceuticals (e.g., formulation processes).
