Abstract
Description
A class of amine compounds containing substituted phenyl groups, their preparation methods and uses
[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application Nos. 2024105708871, 2024105717300 and 2025102930272, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. Technical Field
[0002] This invention belongs to the field of medicinal chemistry. Specifically, this invention relates to a amine compound containing a substituted phenyl group as shown in formula (I), its preparation method and pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same, and its use in the preparation of medicaments for the prevention or treatment of diseases associated with NMDA receptors and / or monoamine transporters, particularly central nervous system diseases. Background Technology
[0003] Depression is a serious mental illness, primarily characterized by depressed mood, low self-esteem, and even suicidal tendencies. Currently, the main medications for treating depression are SSRIs / SSNIs (Selective Serotonin / Norepinephrine Reuptake Inhibitors). However, these drugs are ineffective in nearly one-third of patients and generally have drawbacks such as slow onset of action and even increasing suicidal tendencies. There is a significant unmet clinical need in this area.
[0004] The NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartic acid) glutamate receptor (NMDA receptor or NMDAR) is a ligand-gated ion channel. In vivo, this receptor can be activated by glutamate, one of the most important excitatory neurotransmitters in the central nervous system, thereby mediating the transmission of excitatory signals at synapses. Once the NMDAR ion channel opens, it inhibits the transmission of Ca2+ ions. 2+ K + Na + Increased permeability of cations generates excitatory postsynaptic potentials, triggering a series of physiological and biochemical reactions. NMDAR molecules have complex structures, with various subtypes exhibiting specificity in spatiotemporal distribution and pharmacological properties. Their quantity, composition, and distribution dynamically change at different developmental stages and in different brain regions, participating in numerous physiological activities and providing the molecular basis for complex neural activity, thus ensuring the normal functioning of neural networks. The integration, localization, reactivation, and intrasynaptic and extrasynaptic distribution of NMDAR depend on the regulation of neural activity; disruption of its functional homeostasis is highly correlated with numerous brain diseases, such as depression, epilepsy, and schizophrenia.
[0005] Monoamine transporters are a class of proteins found on the cell membranes of neurons in the central and peripheral nervous systems, responsible for transporting commonly used neurotransmitters in synaptic transmission. Monoamine transporter inhibitors are commonly used as antidepressants to treat depression and anxiety disorders, such as bupropion, which inhibits norepinephrine and dopamine transporters, and fluoxetine and citalopram, which inhibit 5-HT transporters.
[0006] The NMDA receptor antagonist ketamine has been used in medicine for over 50 years as a good anesthetic. Studies have found that intravenous administration of subanesthetic doses of the NMDAR antagonist ketamine can rapidly relieve symptoms of depression within hours, and the effect can last for at least a week. Eketamine, developed by Johnson & Johnson, was approved by the FDA in 2019 for the treatment of treatment-resistant depression. Given that the main molecular target of ketamine is NMDAR, many have proposed that inhibiting this target is also the reason for ketamine's antidepressant effect. This mechanism suggests that the antidepressant effect and dissociative side effects of ketamine may be inseparable at the mechanistic level. However, much evidence challenges this hypothesis (J Psychiatry Neurosci. 2017, 42(4), 222.). First, the R enantiomer of ketamine (R-ket) has been found to be more effective and longer-lasting as an antidepressant in rodent models than the S enantiomer (S-ket), despite R-ket having a significantly weaker affinity for NMDAR than S-ket (Pharmacol Biochem Behav. 2014, 116, 137.). Similarly, the ketamine metabolite (2R, 6R)-hydroxynorketamine (HNK) has been shown to induce antidepressant effects in rodent models, but does not bind to NMDAR in vivo at doses that induce antidepressant effects (Nature. 2016, 533(7604), 481. and Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 2019, 116(11), 5160. and Org Lett. 2017, 19(17), 4572.). Therefore, both R-ket and HNK can induce antidepressant effects while limiting the dissociation of ketamine. However, other strategies proposed to mitigate the dissociation side effects of ketamine have yielded poor results, such as targeting the NR2B subunit of NMDAR or utilizing compounds with low capture properties (Nature. 2016, 533(7604), 481. and Sci Rep. 2017, 7(1), 15725. and Int J Neuropsychopharmacol. 2019, 22(2), 119. and J Psychiatr Res. 2017, 86, 55. and Psychiatry Res. 2016, 239, 281.). Therefore, the precise molecular mechanisms supporting the antidepressant effects of ketamine remain poorly understood and may involve other unidentified targets. Furthermore, the antidepressant effects of NMDAR modulators and the magnitude of their associated dissociation are often highly unpredictable. These findings raise the exciting possibility that the antidepressant effects of ketamine may indeed be separate from its dissociation side effects.
[0007] The dissociative side effects and poor oral bioavailability of ketamine and ethacrylamide greatly limit their clinical application. Although other orally available NMDAR antagonists have been developed, none have yet demonstrated rapid antidepressant efficacy similar to ketamine. Therefore, there remains a pressing need for novel antidepressants with potent clinical efficacy, low or no dissociative side effects, and good oral bioavailability. A drug that retains rapid antidepressant activity similar to ketamine while possessing reduced dissociative side effects and good oral bioavailability would offer a new treatment option that is more manageable and potentially feasible for home use due to its reduced dissociative effects and the associated reduced likelihood of abuse.

As used herein, "isomer" refers to different compounds having the same molecular formula but differing in the arrangement and configuration of their atoms.
[0070] "Stereoisomers" refer to isomers produced by different spatial arrangements of atoms in a molecule. They can be divided into two types: cis-trans isomers and enantiomers, or two main categories: enantiomers and diastereomers.
[0071] "Enantiomers" are a pair of stereoisomers that are non-overlapping mirror images of each other. A 1:1 mixture of a pair of enantiomers is a "racemic" mixture. Where appropriate, this term is used to refer to racemic mixtures. When indicating the stereochemistry of the compounds of the present invention, a single stereoisomer with known relative and absolute configurations (e.g., (1S,2S)) having two chiral centers is designated using the conventional RS system; a single stereoisomer with a known relative configuration but an unknown absolute configuration is indicated by an asterisk (e.g., (1R*,2R*)); and a racemic mixture with two letters (e.g., (1RS,2RS) is a racemic mixture of (1R,2R) and (1S,2S); (1RS,2SR) is a racemic mixture of (1R,2S) and (1S,2R)). "Diarrhetomers" are stereoisomers having at least two asymmetric atoms but not being mirror images of each other. Absolute stereochemistry is indicated according to the Cahn-Lngold-Prelog RS system. When the compound is a pure enantiomer, the stereochemistry at each chiral carbon can be described by R or S. The resolved compounds with unknown absolute configurations can be designated as (+) or (-) based on the direction (dextrorotatory or levorotatory) of their rotational plane-polarized light at the sodium D line wavelength. Alternatively, the resolved compounds can be defined by the respective retention times of the corresponding enantiomers / diastereomers via chiral HPLC.
[0072] Geometric isomerism can occur when a compound contains a double bond or other features that give the molecule a certain degree of structural rigidity. If the compound contains a double bond, the substituent can be in the E or Z conformation. If the compound contains a disubstituted cycloalkyl group, the cycloalkyl substituent can have a cis or trans configuration.
[0073] "Conformation isomers" are isomers that differ by rotation of one or more valence bonds.
[0074] A tautomer is an isomer formed when a proton is transferred from one atom of a molecule to another atom of the same molecule. For example, the following structures are a set of tautomers that interconvert with each other. All tautomer forms of the compounds of this invention are also included within the scope of this invention.
[0075] "Polymorphic" refers to a crystalline form having the same chemical structure / composition but different spatial arrangements of the molecules and / or ions forming the crystals. The compounds of this invention can be provided as amorphous solids or crystalline solids. Freeze-drying can be used to provide solid compounds of this invention.
[0076] "Solvate" refers to a physical combination of the compound of the present invention with one or more organic or inorganic solvent molecules. Such physical combination includes hydrogen bonds. In some cases, the solvate will be separable, for example when one or more solvent molecules are incorporated into the crystal lattice of a crystalline solid.

[0132] The compounds of this invention have the following beneficial effects:
[0133] 1) The compounds of the present invention have modulatory NMDA receptor activity, and can therefore be used to treat and / or prevent diseases associated with NMDA receptors.
[0134] 2) In vitro studies showed that the compounds of this invention dissociated from NMDAR at a faster rate than ketamine, suggesting that the compounds of this invention have a lower risk of psychoactive adverse reactions and a larger safety window.

[0303] HEK293 cell lines were cultured in DMEM medium containing 10% fetal bovine serum at a temperature of 37°C and a carbon dioxide concentration of 5%.
[0304] Cell passage: Remove the old culture medium and wash once with PBS, then add 1 mL of 0.25% Trypsin-EDTA solution and incubate at room temperature for 1 minute. When the cells detach from the bottom of the dish, add 3 mL of pre-warmed 37°C complete culture medium (90% DMEM + 10% FBS). Gently pipette the cell suspension to separate aggregated cells. Transfer the cell suspension to sterile centrifuge tubes and centrifuge at 800 rpm for 3 minutes to collect the cells. Seed the cells at a 1:5 ratio in T25 cell culture flasks (final volume: 6 mL) for expansion or maintenance culture.
[0305] Transient transfection: 24 hours before transient transfection, HEK-293 cells with a cell density of approximately 80% were reseeded to a depth of 35 mm. 2 In each cell culture dish, the inoculum size is 3 × 10⁶ cells / mL. 5 Each cell.
[0306] Prepare the instantaneous reagent for each well according to the following volume:
[0307] 1) Add 7.5 μL of Lipofectamine 3000 to 250 μL of Opti-MEM medium, gently mix by pipetting, and use as component A. Incubate at room temperature for 5 min.
[0308] 2) Take 3.6 μg of pCDNA5-FRT-TO-hNR1-T2A-2A plasmid, 0.4 μg of GFP plasmid, and 7.5 μL of P3000 and add them to 250 μL of Opti-MEM medium. Gently pipette to mix well. This is component B. Incubate at room temperature for 5 min.

[0310] 4) Add the DNA-liposome mixture to 35 mm 2 500 μL of the solution was placed in each well of a cell culture dish and incubated in an incubator.
[0311] 5) Change the solution after 6 hours, using 35mm. 2 All the culture medium in the cell culture dish was aspirated, and 2 mL of complete culture medium (90% DMEM + 10% FBS) was added to each well. After culturing for 18 hours, patch-clamp detection was performed.
[0312] b. Compound preparation: On the day of testing, the stock solution of the compound of this invention is diluted with DMSO to the working concentration, and then diluted with extracellular fluid (containing 100 μM Glutamic acid + 100 μM Glycine) to obtain the final concentration to be tested. The DMSO content in the final test concentration shall not exceed 0.2%.
[0313] c. Electrophysiological recording process
[0314] HEK293 cells transiently expressing NMDA receptor channels were used to record the current induced by 100 μM glutamic acid (containing 100 μM glycine) at room temperature using whole-cell patch-clamp technique. The glass microelectrode was fabricated from a glass electrode blank (BF150-86-10, Sutter) using a stretching device. The tip resistance after perfusion with electrode fluid was approximately 2-5 MΩ. The glass microelectrode was connected to the patch-clamp amplifier by inserting it into the amplifier probe. Clamping voltage and data recording were controlled and recorded via computer using pClamp software, with a sampling frequency of 10 kHz and a filtering frequency of 2 kHz. After obtaining whole-cell recordings, cells were clamped at -70 mV. A rapid drug delivery system was used to administer 100 μM glutamic acid (containing 100 μM glycine) via gravity to induce channel currents. Once the current stabilized, 100 μM glutamic acid (containing 100 μM glycine) containing the compound was administered to observe changes in current amplitude. The compound was administered continuously from low to high concentrations, with a final administration of 100 μM glutamic acid (containing 100 μM glycine). Each test concentration of the compound was administered for at least 20 seconds, and at least two cells (n≥2) were tested for each concentration.
[0315] d. Data processing
[0316] Data analysis and processing were performed using pClamp, GraphPad Prism 8, and Excel software. The degree of inhibition of channel current (current amplitude induced by 100 μM Glutamic acid (containing 100 μM Glycine) at -70 mV) by different compound concentrations was calculated using the following formula:
[0317] Inhibition%=[1–(I / Io)]×100%
[0318] Wherein, Inhibition% represents the percentage of NMDA channel current inhibited by the compound, and I and Io represent the current amplitude induced by 100 μM Glutamic acid (containing 100 μM Glycine) before and after drug administration.
[0319] Compound IC 50 The following equations were fitted and calculated using GraphPad Prism 8 software:
[0320] Y=Bottom+(Top-Bottom) / (1+10^((LogIC 50 -X)*HillSlope))
[0321] Where X is the Log value of the detected concentration of the test sample, Y is the inhibition percentage at the corresponding concentration, and Bottom and Top are the minimum and maximum inhibition percentages, respectively. Test results for some compounds are shown in Table 1.

[0365] The data above show that, at a dose of 30 mg / kg, the swimming immobility time of mice in the drug group was significantly reduced compared to the blank control group at 24 hours after administration, demonstrating a significant antidepressant-like effect. In contrast, the traditional SSRI fluoxetine showed no antidepressant-like effect 24 hours after administration.
[0366] Pharmacological Example 4: Forced Swim Test and Spontaneous Activity Test:
[0367] Drug: The compound of this invention is mixed with 5% DMSO and then added with 5% Mix HS15 thoroughly, then add 90% physiological saline to prepare a solution of appropriate concentration. Prepare and use immediately.
[0368] Animals: Male C57 mice, approximately 22g. Animals were randomly divided into a blank control group and each test drug group, with 8 animals in each group. Mice in each group were administered either the solvent prescription or the test drug via intraperitoneal injection (ip).
[0369] Forced swimming experiment:
[0370] Forced swimming test procedure: Mice were subjected to forced swimming tests 1 hour or 24 hours after drug administration. The water level in the forced swimming device was 45 cm, and the water temperature was 25°C. Before the experiment, the mice were placed in the experimental room for 1 hour to acclimatize to the environment. At the start of the experiment, the mice were placed in the device for 6 minutes. The entire process was recorded by a camera, and only the immobile time of the mice in the last 4 minutes was counted when analyzing the data.
[0371] Spontaneous activity experiment:
[0372] The Locomotor Activity (LMA) test is used to detect psychostimulant activity. LMA is a behavioral test developed to predict the potency of psychostimulants. It is an attractive test for psychostimulants due to its sensitivity and specificity. Marketed psychostimulants, including methylphenidate, amphetamines, and modafinil, all exhibit enhanced ambulatory activities in LMA tests.
[0373] Procedure: The experimental environment was maintained at (22℃±1℃). Mice were first placed in a spontaneous incubator to adapt for 15 minutes, and their spontaneous activities were recorded within 15 minutes. Then, the mice were removed from the spontaneous incubator, and after intraperitoneal administration of the drug, they were immediately placed in a spontaneous incubator (25cm long, 25cm wide, and 45cm high). The activity trajectory of the mice within 60 minutes after drug administration was recorded using the Nordas video analysis system, and the data was analyzed and statistically analyzed.
[0374] Results of the forced swimming experiment:
[0375] One hour after administration, the positive control drug esketamine exhibited a significant antidepressant-like effect. At the same dose (20 mg / kg), compound A4 showed a lower immobility time (in seconds) compared to compound A3, and both were significantly lower than the blank control group (solvent group), indicating a more significant antidepressant-like effect (see Figure 1). At the same dose (20 mg / kg), compound A24 showed a more significant antidepressant-like effect compared to compound A23. At the same dose (10 mg / kg), compound A28 showed a more significant antidepressant-like effect compared to compound A27. At the same dose (10 mg / kg), compound A36 showed a more significant antidepressant-like effect compared to compound A35. At 24 hours after administration, compound A4 (20 mg / kg) showed a significant antidepressant-like effect, while the traditional SSRI fluoxetine showed no antidepressant-like efficacy.
[0376] Results of spontaneous activity experiments:
[0377] Compared to the blank control group, compounds A2 and A4 significantly increased spontaneous activity (total distance of movement within 60 min) in mice in a dose-dependent manner within the dose range of 10-40 mg / kg (10, 20, 40 mg / kg), demonstrating psychostimulant effects. They can be used to treat diseases related to dopamine reuptake, such as ADHD.
[0378] Pharmacological Example 5: Experimental drug for ADHD in rats: The compound of the present invention was mixed with 5% DMSO and then 90% physiological saline to prepare a solution of appropriate concentration, which was prepared and used immediately.
[0379] Animals: Male spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), weighing between 100g and 300g, and male Wistar rats weighing between 200g and 400g were used as control rats. All rats were 1-3 months old. SHR rats were randomly divided into a model group and each test drug group, with 6-8 animals in each group. Mice in each group received an intraperitoneal injection of either the solvent formulation or the test drug, while Wistar rats received the same solvent formulation via intraperitoneal injection.
[0380] Experimental Procedure: Before the experiment, rats were placed in the experimental room to acclimatize for 1 hour. Immediately after intraperitoneal injection of the drug, rats were placed in an open field for spontaneous activity testing, which lasted for 1 hour. Object recognition was then performed 3 hours after drug administration. Specific experimental procedures are as follows:
[0381] 1. Spontaneous activities in open spaces
[0382] Rats were intraperitoneally injected with the test drug or solvent at a volume of 5 ml / kg. Immediately after injection, the rats were placed in an open enclosure (80cm*80cm*40cm, L*W*H) and allowed to explore freely for 1 hour. Anymaze software was used to record the movement distance and trajectory of each rat. The activity level of the animals was analyzed every 15 minutes and the total activity level over 60 minutes.
[0383] 2. Object Recognition (Spatial Object Recognition)
[0384] Three hours after intraperitoneal injection of the test drugs or solvents, rats were placed in an open-field box containing two identical objects (cylinders with a base diameter of 6 cm and a height of 15 cm) and allowed to explore freely for 10 minutes; this was the training period. One hour after the training period, one of the objects was moved to a new location, and the rat was placed back in the same box and allowed to explore freely for another 10 minutes. The exploration time for each object was manually timed by the experimenter, and the behavior of each rat was recorded using video software. The 1-hour object recognition index of the rats was calculated using the following formula:
[0385] Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA, followed by Dunnett's multiple comparison test. * p<0.05 vs SHR group, ** p<0.01 vs SHR group, *** p<0.001 vs SHR group.
[0386] Experimental results:
[0387] Compared with the model group, compounds A2, A4, A60, A83 maleate, A197, A204, A217 and A223 reduced total spontaneous activity in rats (Figure 3) and improved spatial memory (Figure 4) in the dose range of 10-40 mg / kg, and have anti-ADHD effects. They can be used to treat diseases related to dopamine or norepinephrine reuptake, such as ADHD.
