Description

Tricyclic derivatives and pharmaceutical compositions containing the same

[0001] The present invention relates to a tricyclic derivative and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the same. Specifically, the present invention relates to a tricyclic derivative that can be used as a potassium-competitive acid blocker (P-CAB) and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the same.

[0002] Gastric acid plays a number of beneficial roles, including digesting proteins, absorbing minerals like calcium and iron, and sterilizing harmful microorganisms in ingested food. However, because gastric acid is extremely acidic, with a pH of 1-2, excessive gastric acid secretion or reflux into the esophagus can lead to digestive diseases such as peptic ulcers, gastric and duodenal ulcers, gastritis, gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), and non-erosive reflux disease (NERD).

[0003] Gastrointestinal ulcers, gastritis, and reflux esophagitis occur when the balance between aggressive factors (e.g., gastric acid, Helicobacter pylori, pepsin, stress, alcohol, and tobacco) and defensive factors (e.g., gastric mucosa, bicarbonate, prostaglandins, blood supply, etc.) is disrupted. Therefore, treatments for gastrointestinal damage are divided into those that suppress aggressive factors or enhance defensive factors.

[0004] Representative related treatments include drugs that reduce aggressive factors, such as antacids, anticholinergic drugs, H2 receptor antagonists, and proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). Currently, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), such as omeprazole, lansoprazole, pantoprazole, and rabeprazole, are leading the market. However, it has been raised that existing PPIs can cause side effects such as bacterial proliferation in the stomach, promotion of proton pump expression, and possibility of tumor cell formation due to hypergastrinemia [Havu N, Digestion, 1986, 35(Suppl 1), 42-55; Chang Seok Song, Dong Il Park, Korean J Med., 2011, 81(1), 6~10], recently, it has also been reported that long-term use increases the risk of hip, wrist, and spine fractures by suppressing calcium absorption and bone cell growth through gastric acid suppression [Yang YX, et al., JAMA, 2006, 296, 2947~53; ​​Targownik LE, et al., CMAJ, 2008, 179(4), 319~26; Gray SL, et al., Arch Intern Med. 2010, 170(9), 765~71]. Furthermore, despite the highly effective therapeutic ability of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), the number of patients refractory to PPIs is also rapidly increasing.

[0005] Meanwhile, drugs that enhance defense factors are also used to treat gastrointestinal ulcers and gastritis. Known drugs that enhance defense factors include mucoprotectors that bind to ulcer sites to form a physicochemical barrier, and drugs that promote mucus synthesis and secretion.

[0006] Meanwhile, Helicobacter pylori is a bacterium that exists in the stomach and is known to cause chronic gastritis, gastric ulcers, and duodenal ulcers, and many patients with gastrointestinal damage are infected with H. pylori. These patients must take antibiotics such as clarithromycin, amoxicillin, metronidazole, and tetracycline along with antiulcer drugs such as proton pump inhibitors and gastric acid pump antagonists, and various side effects have been reported.

[0007] Therefore, there is a need in the art for the development of anti-ulcer drugs that simultaneously suppress gastric acid secretion (e.g., proton pump inhibitory activity), enhance defense factors (e.g., increase mucus secretion), and eradicate Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori).

[0008] Accordingly, H + / K + -K of ATPase + There is growing interest in and demand for potassium-competitive acid blockers (P-CABs), drugs that reversibly bind to the binding site and suppress acid secretion through potassium-competitive inhibition. In particular, unlike irreversible proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), P-CABs exhibit rapid onset of action and are easy to take, regardless of mealtime. They are also expected to be highly effective in alleviating nocturnal symptoms, a problem with irreversible PPIs.

For example, "group A is substituted with substituent B" or "group A has substituent B" may mean that a hydrogen atom bonded to an atom such as carbon constituting the skeleton of group A is replaced with substituent B, so that group A and substituent B form a covalent bond. Accordingly, a group that does not have a hydrogen atom that can leave is practically difficult or impossible to have a substituent, and when the present specification exemplifies a range of combinations of various groups and substituents including groups that are difficult to have substituents, combinations of groups and substituents that are obviously impossible to substituent should be interpreted as excluding from the range. Non-limiting examples of the substituents include halo (F, Cl, Br, I), C 1~10 Alkyl, C 2~10 Alkenyl, C 2~10 Alkynyl, hydroxyl, C 1~10Alkoxy, amino, nitro, thiol, thioether, imine, cyano, phosphine, carboxy, carbamoyl, acetal, thiocarbonyl, sulfonyl, sulfonamide, ketone, aldehyde, ester, acetyl, amide, oxo(=0), haloalkyl (e.g., trifluoromethyl), substituted aminoacyl and aminoalkyl, carbocyclic cycloalkyl which is monocyclic or fused or non-fused multiple rings (e.g., cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, or cyclohexyl), or heterocycloalkyl which is monocyclic or fused or non-fused multiple rings (e.g., pyrrolidinyl, piperidinyl, piperazinyl, morpholinyl, or thiazinyl), carbocyclic, heterocyclic, monocyclic, fused It may be at least one selected from the group consisting of polycyclic, non-fused polycyclic, fused polycyclic aryl or non-fused polycyclic aryl (e.g., phenyl, naphthyl, pyrrolyl, indolyl, furanyl, thienyl, imidazolyl, oxazolyl, isoxazolyl, thiazolyl, triazolyl, tetrazolyl, pyrazolyl, pyridinyl, quinolinyl, isoquinolinyl, acridinyl, pyrazinyl, pyridazinyl, pyrimidinyl, benzimidazolyl, benzothienyl or benzofuranyl), amino (primary, secondary or tertiary), aryl, aryloxy, and aryl-alkyl. In addition, each of the above-mentioned exemplified substituents may be optionally substituted with a substituent selected from these groups of substituents.

[0039] In the chemical structural formulas illustrated herein, the symbols for carbon atoms (C) and hydrogen atoms (H) may be omitted according to the conventional notation method of chemical structural formulas. For example, even if the symbols for hydrogen atoms are not indicated, it should be understood that a number of hydrogen atoms satisfying the valence of the carbon atoms (or heteroatoms) forming the skeleton are bonded to the carbon atoms (or heteroatoms). From this perspective, for example, When A and B in the structural formula are defined as being able to be carbon (C) or nitrogen (N) independently, this assumes that when C or N atoms are applied to the structural formula, a number of hydrogen atoms satisfying the valence can be further bonded. Therefore, it should be understood that specifically, A can be -CH2- or -NH-, and B can be =CH- or =N-.

[0040] In addition, when a polycyclic ring is depicted as having a substituent in the present specification and the carbon (or heteroatom) on which the substituent is positioned in the polycyclic ring is not specified, it should be understood that the substituent may be positioned on the carbon (or heteroatom) of any ring constituting the polycyclic ring. For example, when a substituent is depicted on one ring of a bicyclic ring and the carbon (or heteroatom) on which the substituent is positioned is not specified, it means that the substituent may be positioned not only on the corresponding ring but also on the carbon (or heteroatom) of another ring.

[0149] The compound of formula (I) of the present invention may exist in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt. Accordingly, the scope of the compound of the present invention includes a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of the compound represented by formula (I). As used herein, the term "pharmaceutically acceptable salt" means any organic or inorganic acid addition salt of the compound represented by formula (I) at a concentration that is relatively non-toxic and harmless to the patient and has an effective effect, and the side effects due to the salt do not reduce the beneficial effects of the compound represented by formula (I).

[0150] In particular, the pharmaceutically acceptable salt may be an acid addition salt formed by a free acid. Here, the acid addition salt can be obtained from inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, hydrobromic acid, hydroiodic acid, nitrous acid, phosphorous acid, etc.; non-toxic organic acids such as aliphatic mono- and dicarboxylates, phenyl-substituted alkanoates, hydroxyalkanoates and alkanedioates, aromatic acids, aliphatic and aromatic sulfonic acids, etc.; organic acids such as trifluoroacetic acid, acetate, benzoic acid, citric acid, lactic acid, maleic acid, gluconic acid, methanesulfonic acid, 4-toluenesulfonic acid, tartaric acid, fumaric acid, etc.

[0151] Such pharmaceutically acceptable salts may include sulfate, sulfite, nitrate, phosphate, pyrophosphate, chloride, bromide, iodide, fluoride, acetate, propionate, decanoate, caprylate, acrylate, formate, isobutyrate, caprate, heptanoate, propiolate, oxalate, malonate, succinate, suberate, sebacate, fumarate, maleate, benzoate, phthalate, benzenesulfonate, toluenesulfonate, phenylacetate, phenylpropionate, phenylbutyrate, citrate, lactate, glycolate, malate, tartrate, mandelate, and the like.

[0152] The above acid addition salt can be prepared by a conventional method, for example, by dissolving the derivative of the chemical formula (I) in an organic solvent such as methanol, ethanol, acetone, methylene chloride, acetonitrile, ethyl acetate, etc., adding an organic acid or inorganic acid, filtering and drying the resulting precipitate, or by distilling the solvent and an excess of acid under reduced pressure, drying, and crystallizing in an organic solvent.

[0153] In addition, the pharmaceutically acceptable salt may be a salt or metal salt obtained using a base. As an example of a metal salt, an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salt can be obtained by dissolving a compound in an excess alkali metal hydroxide or alkaline earth metal hydroxide solution, filtering out the undissolved compound salt, and evaporating and drying the filtrate. As an alkali metal salt, sodium, potassium, or calcium salts may be pharmaceutically suitable. In addition, a corresponding salt can be obtained by reacting an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salt with a suitable silver salt (e.g., silver nitrate).

[0154] As used herein, "stereoisomer" means a compound having the same chemical formula or molecular formula but being sterically different. As used herein, stereoisomers include enantiomers, diastereomers, cis / trans isomers, rotamers, and atropisomers, and each of these isomers and mixtures thereof are also included in the scope of the present invention. For example, since the chemical formula (I) of the present invention does not specify a stereochemical structure, it may include the stereoisomers of the chemical formula (I). Specifically, in the chemical structural formula, a solid bond (ㅡ) connected to an asymmetric carbon atom represents a wedge-shaped solid bond ( ) and wedge-shaped dotted line combination ( ) may be included. It should also be construed that stereoisomers of the exemplary compounds described herein are also included in the scope of the present invention.

[0155] Additionally, the compounds of the present invention may include hydrates and solvates of the compound of the above formula (I). The hydrates and solvates may be prepared using known methods, and are preferably non-toxic and water-soluble. In particular, the hydrates and solvates may preferably be those in which 1 to 5 molecules of water and an alcoholic solvent (particularly, ethanol, etc.) are combined, respectively.

[0156] Additionally, the compounds of the present invention may include metabolites of the compounds of formula (I). The compounds of the present invention may be formed into metabolites in vivo upon administration, and specifically, such metabolites may be produced from oxidation, reduction, hydrolysis, amidation, deamidation, esterification, enzymatic cleavage, etc. of the administered compound. For example, compounds produced by a method comprising a step of contacting a mammal with a compound of the present invention for a period of time sufficient to obtain metabolites of the compound of the present invention may also fall within the scope of the present invention.

[0157] The compounds of the present invention may also include prodrugs of the compounds of formula (I), which themselves have little or no pharmacological activity, but which, when administered internally, can be converted into compounds having the desired activity, for example, by hydrolysis. Such prodrugs may be derivatives of the compounds containing a biologically reactive functional group, wherein the biologically reactive functional group can be cleaved from the compound or otherwise reacted under biological conditions (in vivo or in vitro) to provide the compound. Typically, the prodrug is inactive, or at least has a lower activity than the compound, which allows the compound to exhibit its activity after cleavage from the biologically reactive functional group. The biologically reactive functional group can be hydrolyzed or oxidized under biological conditions to produce the compound. For example, the prodrug may contain a biologically hydrolyzable group. Examples of biologically hydrolyzable groups include, but are not limited to, biologically hydrolyzable phosphates, biologically hydrolyzable esters, biologically hydrolyzable amides, biologically hydrolyzable carbonic esters, biologically hydrolyzable carbamates, and biologically hydrolyzable ureides.
