Abstract
Description
Soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitors and their applications Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the fields of biomedicine and soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitors. Specifically, the present application relates to a cyclic imidazole compound, a method for preparing the cyclic imidazole compound, and the use of the cyclic imidazole compound as a soluble epoxide hydrolase inhibitor. Background Art
[0002] Soluble epoxide hydrolases (sEH) play a central role in the metabolism of bioactive lipid signaling molecules. sEH specifically converts the substrate epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (EET) into less biologically active dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acid. These EETs are ubiquitous in endothelial cells, kidneys, and lungs. Compared to many proinflammatory end products of the prostaglandin and leukotriene pathways, EETs possess anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antihypertensive, cardioprotective, and organ-protective properties. Although EETs have significant positive effects on human health, due to the high catalytic activity of sEH in vivo, EETs cannot be effectively accumulated in vivo to more effectively exert their biological effects. Therefore, the development of suitable sEH inhibitors to inhibit the hydrolysis of EETs and promote their accumulation in vivo to enhance their anti-inflammatory and other effects has become a key research area. Studies have shown that sEH inhibition can significantly lower blood pressure in mammals and promote the resolution of inflammation by reducing the production of inflammatory factors (NO), cytokines, and lipid mediators. Several sEH inhibitors have entered the clinical trial stage in the early stage, but no sEH inhibitor drugs have been approved for marketing yet.
[0003] sEH possesses exceptionally high catalytic activity, effectively catalyzing the ring-opening hydrolysis of endogenous epoxides such as EETs. However, active anti-inflammatory substances like EETs are present in very low concentrations in the human body. To fully exploit the anti-inflammatory activity of EETs, highly active sEH enzyme inhibitors are required to comprehensively inhibit sEH hydrolysis of EETs. Therefore, developing drug molecules with superior activity and pharmacokinetic properties has become a pressing challenge in the development of sEH inhibitors. Summary of the Invention

[0100] As used herein, the term "stereoisomer" is called stereoisomer in English and refers to the isomers produced by the different spatial arrangements of atoms in a molecule. It can be divided into two types: cis-trans isomers and enantiomers, or into two major categories: enantiomers and diastereomers. Stereoisomers caused by the rotation of single bonds are called conformational stereoisomers, sometimes also referred to as rotamers. Stereoisomers caused by bond length, bond angle, double bonds in molecules, rings, etc. are called configurational stereoisomers, which are further divided into two categories. Among them, isomers caused by the inability of double bonds or single bonds of ring carbon atoms to rotate freely are called geometric isomers, also called cis-trans isomers, and are divided into two configurations: Z and E. For example, cis-2-butene and trans-2-butene are a pair of geometric isomers. Stereoisomers with different optical rotation properties due to the lack of anti-axial symmetry in the molecule are called optical isomers and are classified into R and S configurations. In this invention, "stereoisomers," unless otherwise specified, are understood to include one or more of the aforementioned enantiomers, configurational isomers, and conformational isomers.
[0101] As used herein, the term "tautomer" refers to functional group isomers resulting from the rapid shift of an atom (usually a hydrogen atom) between different positions within a molecule. This interconversion process is known as tautomerism. In compounds exhibiting tautomerism, equilibrium between the tautomers typically exists; the tautomers cannot be separated, and their ratios vary with changing external conditions.
[0102] As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" means any pharmaceutically acceptable salt of a compound of formula (I). For example, any pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound described herein is included within the scope of reasonable medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with human and animal tissues without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic reaction and commensurate with a reasonable benefit / risk ratio. Pharmaceutically acceptable salts are well known in the art. For example, pharmaceutically acceptable salts are described in: Berge et al., J. Pharmaceutical Sciences 66: 1-19, 1977 and Pharmaceutical Salts: Properties, Selection, and Use (Eds. P.H. Stahl and C.G. Wermuth), Wiley-VCH, 2008. Salts can be prepared in situ during the final isolation and purification of the compounds described herein or separately by reacting the free base group with a suitable organic acid.
[0103] The compounds of the present invention may have ionizable groups so that they can be prepared as pharmaceutically acceptable salts. These salts may be acid addition salts involving inorganic or organic acids, or salts may be prepared (in the case of the acid form of the compounds of the present invention) from inorganic or organic bases. Frequently, the compounds are prepared or used as pharmaceutically acceptable salts prepared as addition products of pharmaceutically acceptable acids or bases. Suitable pharmaceutically acceptable acids and bases and methods for preparing appropriate salts are well known in the art. Salts may be prepared from pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic acids and bases (including inorganic and organic acids and bases).

[0105] As used herein, the term "subject" refers to any organism to which a composition according to the present invention can be administered, e.g., for experimental, diagnostic, prophylactic, and / or therapeutic purposes. Typical subjects include any animal (e.g., mammals such as mice, rats, rabbits, non-human primates, and humans). A subject may be a person or animal seeking or requiring treatment, in need of treatment, currently receiving treatment, to be treated in the future, or under the care of a trained professional for a particular disease or condition.
[0106] As used herein, the terms "treat" or "therapeutic" mean both therapeutic treatment and prophylactic or preventative measures, wherein the goal is to prevent or delay (lessen) an unwanted physiological condition, disorder, or disease, or to obtain a beneficial or desired clinical result. Beneficial or desired clinical results include, but are not limited to, relief of symptoms; a reduction in the extent of the condition, disorder, or disease; stabilization of the condition, disorder, or disease state (i.e., not worsening); a delay or slowing of the onset of the condition, disorder, or disease progression; an improvement or alleviation (whether partial or complete) of the condition, disorder, or disease state, whether detectable or undetectable; an improvement in at least one measurable human physiological parameter, which parameter is not necessarily discernible by the patient; or an amelioration or improvement of the condition, disorder, or disease.

[0121] In the following examples, the characterization methods used are as follows.
[0122] H NMR spectroscopy ( 1H NMR): Nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of reaction products and intermediates ( 1 H NMR spectra were obtained on a Bruker AVANCE III HD 400 / 500 in Germany. Sample preparation is as follows: In a clean, dry glass NMR tube, completely dissolve an appropriate amount of sample in approximately 0.5 mL of a deuterated solvent. Most compounds have good solubility in DMSO-d6, making it the preferred deuterated solvent. DMSO-d6 readily solidifies at relatively low room temperatures and requires a hair dryer to dissolve it before loading. Other suitable deuterated reagents, such as CDCl3 and CD3OD, can also be used depending on testing needs. Tetramethylsilane (TMS) was used as the internal standard for testing at room temperature, with a chemical shift of 0 ppm.

[0240] 3. Biological Testing
[0241] In vitro biochemical activity test:
[0242] This example describes the relationship between the structure and activity of cyclic imidazole compounds. Specifically, the biochemical activity of each example compound as a sEH inhibitor was evaluated using the PHOME assay. The synthesis of the substrate required for this assay and the assay method were based on previously reported literature (Analytical Biochemistry 2005, 343, 66-75).
[0243] sEH enzyme inhibition assays were performed in a low-binding 96-well plate. The reaction system consisted of 100 μL of 25 mM Bis-Tris, pH 7.0, 0.1 mg / mL BSA buffer. The PHOME assay activity assay was performed as follows.
[0244] First, a sEH enzyme solution with a final concentration of 500 pM was mixed with compounds of different concentrations and pre-incubated on a shaker at room temperature for 10 minutes. The reaction was triggered by adding Phome fluorescent substrate at a final concentration of 5 uM and immediately placed in a Perkin Elmer microplate reader. Dynamic monitoring was performed for 1 hour under the conditions of excitation wavelength 330 nm and emission wavelength 465 nm, with fluorescence readings at intervals of 1 minute. Graphpad Prism 9.0 software was used to calculate the slope of the fluorescence value increase in each well within 20 minutes, and the slope was used to calibrate the enzyme activity to calculate the inhibition rate of the compound on sEH enzyme activity under different concentration conditions. Finally, Graphpad Prism 9 was used to plot and calculate the IC 50 Value. Among them, "A" represents IC 50 ≤500pM, “B” means 500pM <IC 50 ≤2nM, “C” means 2nM <IC 50 ≤10nM, “D” means 10nM <IC 50 .
