Description

[0001] TR0011P-WO2 Allyl-derivatives of cannabinoids The disclosure relates to derivatives as well as production-processes of allyl-derivatives of can- nabinoids. Also disclosed are medical uses of said derivatives. Background of the Disclosure 5 Cannabinoids are terpene phenols found in flowering Cannabinaceae plants of the genus Can- nabis, namely in the species Cannabis sativa, Cannabis indica, and Cannabis ruderalis and are subdivided into 12 classes: cannabigerols (CBG), cannabichromenes (CBC), cannabidiols (CBD), cannabinodiols (CBND), tetrahydrocannabinols (THC), cannabinols (CBN), cannabitriols (CBT), cannabielsoins (CBE), isocannabinoids, cannabicyclols (CBL), cannabicitrans (CBT) and 10 cannabichromanones (CBCN). Cannabinoids have found wide applications, mainly in the medical field, as food additives and for cosmetic use. For example, cannabidiol has been proposed for the treatment of anxiety, ad- diction, psychosis, movement disorders, and pain (Kirkland et al., Psychiatry Research.308: 114347, 2022; Black et al., The Lancet. Psychiatry.6 (12): 995–1010, 2019; VanDolah et al., 15 Mayo Clinic Proceedings.94 (9): 1840–1851, 2019; Prud'homme et al., Substance Abuse.9: 33–38, 2015). Distinct physiological effects are caused by binding of the cannabinoids to the cannabinoid receptors CB1 and CB2 of the endocannabinoid system. Both CBD and Δ9-THC are used as pharmaceuticals for modulating appetite, pain, mood and memory (effected at the CB1 receptor) and for influencing the immune system (effected at the20 CB2 receptor). However, the psychoactive, intoxicating effect is not preferred when THC-deriva- tives are used in therapeutic settings. Accordingly, there is a need for novel THC-derivatives, which possess only mild or ideally no psychoactive and intoxicating effects, while providing and / or retaining one or more of the wanted beneficial effects facilitated by binding to the CB1- receptor and / or the CB2-receptor. 25 Currently known THC-derivatives display a mixed effect spectrum comprising both wanted and unwanted physiological effects. Accordingly, there is also a need for THC-derivatives which es- sentially display a single or main effect, also referred to as mono-therapeutic compounds. The above-mentioned problems are solved by the subject-matter described here below. June 25, 2025 1 / 74 TR0011P-WO2 y of the invention A first aspect of this disclosure relates to a compound according to Formula I 5 wherein R1and R2are chosen in combination according to any one of the following options a) to i): a) R1is allyl and R2is H, b) R1is H and R2is allyl, 10 c) R1is H and R2is 1-propenyl, 2-butenyl, 2-pentenyl, or 2,4-hexadienyl, d) R1is H and R2is 3-hydroxy-propyl, e) R1is H and R2is butyryl aldehyde, f) R1is H and R2is propionyl acid, g) R1is H and R2is 2-oxopropyl, and 15 h) wherein R1and R2together form a ring structure selected from the group consisting of , June 25, 2025 2 / 74 TR0011P-WO2 i) R1is (C=O)OCH3and R2is allyl, wherein R3is selected from propyl, pentyl, heptyl, This disclosure thus provides synthetic access to hitherto unknown C-allyl-Δ9-tetrahydrocanna- binol derivatives (C-allyl-Δ9-THC), C-allyl-Δ8-tetrahydrocannabinol derivatives (C-allyl-Δ8-THC), 5 C-allyl-hexahydrocannabinol derivatives (C-allyl-HHC), as well as C-allyl-cannabinol derivatives (C-allyl-CBN).

NMR spectra were recorded with the following spectrometers: Bruker Avance III HD 400 (1H: 400.2 MHz; 13C: 100.6 MHz), Bruker Avance III HDX 600 (1H: 600.2 MHz; 13C: 150.9 MHz) and Bruker Avance III HDX 700 (1H: 700.3 MHz; 13C: 176.1 MHz); and calibrated for the sol- vent signal (1H: CDCl3: δ = 7.26 ppm; acetone-d6: δ = 2.05 ppm; dichlormethane-d2: δ = 5.3210 ppm; DMSO-d6: δ = 2.50 ppm;13C: CDCl3: δ =77.16 ppm; acetone-d6: δ = 29.92 ppm; dichlor- methane-d2: δ = 54.0 ppm; DMSO-d6: δ = 39.51 ppm). ESI-TOF-HRM spectrometry was performed on a Bruker MAXIS 4G spectrometer. Elemental analyses were obtained from a HEKAtech Euro EA 3000 apparatus. Optical rotations were determined with a Perkin-Elmer Polarimeter 341 in a 10 cm cuvette at 20 15 °C with a wavelength of 589 nm (Na-lamp). Melting points were measured with a Büchi Melting Point M-560 apparatus. Example 1.

At room temperature K2CO3(3.45 g, 25 mmol) was added in one portion under vigorous stirring and stirring at room temperature was continued until TLC (petrol June 25, 2025 61 / 74 TR0011P-WO2 ether / ethyl acetate 10 / 1) showed complete conversion of the starting material into a faster mov- ing product (16 h). The suspension was filtered through a glass filter and the filtrate was con- centrated under vacuum at the rotary evaporator (bath temperature 60 °C). The concentrated solution was poured into water (100 ml) and extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic 5 layers were successively washed with saturated NaHCO3solution and brine and dried over Na2SO4. Filtration and concentration of the solution afforded O-allyl-O-acetyl-CBDA-methyl es- ter (7.76 g, quant.) as a slightly yellow oil.

The synthesis of the starting material 2O-Acetyl-CBDA-methylester has been described in the art, e.g., WO 2023 / 099549 A1, which synthesis is hereby incorporated by reference. Example 7. In-silico binding affinities of the synthesised C-allyl derivatives towards the 20 CB1 and CB2 receptor Table 1 shows the AutoDock (Morris et al., J. Computational Chemistry 16: 2785, 2009) and Le- Dock (Wang et al., Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys.18: 12964, 2016) in-silico calculated free energy scorings, i.e., the binding affinities for the C-allyl derivatives C-allyl-Δ9-THC, C-allyl- Δ8-THC, C- allyl-HHC, and C-allyl-CBN, towards the two cannabinoid receptors, CB1 and CB2, in compari-25 son to the in-silico calculated binding affinities of ^9-THC being -11.04 kcal / mol for CB1 and - 5.4 kcal / mol for CB2 (Haghdoost et al. Pharmaceuticals 17: 637, 2024). In general, the synthesised C-allyl derivatives C-allyl-Δ9-THC-, C-allyl- Δ8-THC-, C-allyl-HHC and C-allyl-CBN, show lower in-silico calculated binding affinities to CB1 and CB2 receptors in comparison to the in-silico calculated binding affinities of ^9-THC. The energetic differences of 30 the in-silico calculated binding affinities of the synthesised C-allyl derivatives between the two cannabinoid receptors, CB1 and CB2, are less pronounced in comparison to the energetic dif- ference of the in-silico calculated binding affinities of ^9-THC. This suggests a diminished June 25, 2025 62 / 74 TR0011P-WO2 psychotropic effect of the synthesised C-allyl derivatives and a more pronounced physiological effect of the synthesised C-allyl derivatives associated with CB2 receptor binding. Table 1: In-silico binding affinities of C-allyl derivatives towards the CB1 and CB2 receptor 5 Example 8. Partition coefficient, acidity and solubilty Using ChemDraw Professional software (Version 23.1.2.7), the partition coefficient [n-Oc- tanol / Water] was calculated according to three different approaches, i.e. according to Crippen (J. Chem. Inf. Comput. Sci.27: 21, 1987), Viswanadhan (J. Chem. Inf. Comput. Sci.29: 163, 1989), and Broto (Eur. J. Med. Chem.- Chim.Theor.19: 71, 1984). Additionally, the acidity in the 10 form of the pKa value and the solubilty S (mol / l) presented as the Log10 S value were derived using ChemDraw Professional software. Said data were generated for the synthesised C-allyl derivatives C-allyl-Δ9-THC, C-allyl- Δ8-THC, C-allyl-HHC and C-allyl-CBN, as well as the synthe- sised O-allyl derivatives O-allyl-Δ9-THC, O-allyl- Δ8-THC, O-allyl-HHC and O-allyl-CBN, in com- parison to Δ9-THC, Δ8-THC, HHC and CBN. 15 Table 2: The partition coefficient [n-Octanol / Water] according to Crippen, Viswanadhan and Broto, acidity and solubility values were computed for the synthesised C-allyl derivatives C-allyl- Δ9-THC, C-allyl- Δ8-THC, C-allyl-HHC and C-allyl-CBN, as well as the synthesised O-allyl deriv- atives O-allyl-Δ9-THC, O-allyl- Δ8-THC, O-allyl-HHC and O-allyl-CBN, in comparison to Δ9-THC, Δ8-THC, HHC and CBN. / l) June 25, 2025 63 / 74 TR0011P-WO2 June 25, 2025 64 / 74
