Description

Substituted azacyclic butane derivatives, their preparation methods and pharmaceutical uses

[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202410956574.X, filed on July 17, 2024; Chinese Patent Application No. 202411591957.8, filed on November 8, 2024; and Chinese Patent Application No. 202510315349.2, filed on March 18, 2025, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0002] This invention pertains to the pharmaceutical field, specifically relating to substituted azacyclobutane derivatives, their stereoisomers or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, compositions comprising the compounds and their applications in the pharmaceutical field, as well as methods for preparing the compounds and intermediates. Background Technology

[0003] Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors (mAChRs) are G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) composed of five subtypes: M1, M2, M3, M4, and M5. Five mAChR subtypes (M1–M5) have been identified and are part of the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) superfamily. These subtypes are widely distributed throughout the peripheral and central nervous systems, with M1 and M4 subtypes primarily expressed in the CNS. The M4 receptor couples to Gi and is mainly expressed in the cerebral cortex, striatum, hypothalamus, and hippocampus (Lebois, et al., Neurop Harmacology 2018, 136, 362–373).

[0004] Cholinergic neurotransmission plays a crucial role in cognitive function. Cholinergic receptor antagonists have been shown to cause severe memory impairment, while acetylcholinesterase inhibitors such as donepezil have demonstrated cognitive-enhancing effects in Alzheimer's disease. In schizophrenia, a high dopaminergic state in the striatum and nucleus accumbens is associated with psychosis. Most antipsychotics improve symptoms by antagonizing dopamine D2 receptors, and this is currently the target of antipsychotic drugs that block dopamine D2 receptors.

[0005] Positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) of the M receptor have become a research hotspot in the field of mental illness in recent years. A clinical study of 345 Alzheimer's patients showed that the M1 / M4 agonist xanomeline, by activating muscarinic receptors, improved cognitive and psychiatric symptoms such as hallucinations, delusions, and vocalizations (Bodick, et al., Arch Neurol 1997, 54, 465-73). Furthermore, drugs acting on the M receptor are also undergoing clinical trials for the treatment of schizophrenia. KarXT from Karuna Pharmaceuticals (with xanomeline as its active ingredient) has already entered Phase III clinical trials in the United States and achieved positive results. Therefore, M1 / M4 agonists hold promise for improving cognitive and psychiatric symptoms.

[0006] Because the recognition sites of agonists for different M receptor subtypes are highly conserved in their spatial structure, these drugs lack subtype selectivity, which makes them prone to toxic side effects and limits their clinical use. For example, Xanomeline, the active ingredient of KarXT, is an M receptor agonist. Its low subtype selectivity causes gastrointestinal discomfort and cardiovascular adverse reactions, leading some patients to choose to discontinue treatment.

[0007] In recent years, an increasing number of studies on allosteric modulators have revealed that the key amino acids involved in receptor allosteric regulation have low conservation, which provides a structural basis for the development of more selective allosteric modulator drugs. It has been proven that allosteric modulators can enhance the subtype selectivity of ligands to receptors and improve drug efficacy.

[0008] M4 receptor orthoallosteric modulators can improve M receptor subtype selectivity, reduce off-target adverse reactions and side effects, and increase patient compliance. Furthermore, by altering the conformation of the M4 receptor protein, these modulators enhance the binding activity of endogenous acetylcholine (Ach) to the M4 receptor, producing an effect similar to that of M4 receptor agonists. This reveals the role of these receptors in controlling dopamine release in the striatum and their function in key synapses in the hippocampus known to be important for cognition.

[0009] A recent study demonstrated that M4 PAM reduced striatal dopamine release after amphetamine treatment in wild-type mice, but did not reduce striatal dopamine release after amphetamine treatment in M4 knockout wild-type mice (Byunetal., NeuropsychopHarmacology 2014, 39, 1578). Another study showed that M4 PAM induced inhibition of glutamate-excitatory synaptic transmission at the Schaeffer collateral-CA1 synapse in the hippocampus (Thorn, et al., Hippocampus 2017, 27, 794-810). Furthermore, in vivo rodent studies showed that M4 PAM VU0467154 improved associative learning impairment in the touch screen pair-wise visual discrimination task induced by the non-competitive NMDA receptor antagonist MK-801. These effects were not present in M4 knockout mice, demonstrating the specificity of this phenotype for the M4 receptor (Bubser, et al., ACS Chemical Neuroscience 2014, 5, 920-942).

[0010] By activating M4 receptors in the striatum and hippocampus using specific PAMs, the hyperdopaminergic state of the striatum and overstimulation of the hippocampus can be reduced, providing a therapeutic approach for psychosis and cognitive impairment in schizophrenia. Therefore, modulating M4 receptor activity is a promising therapeutic strategy for treating or preventing M4-mediated diseases or disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, schizophrenia, psychosis, Parkinson's disease, pain, addiction, and Huntington's disease. Thus, developing new compounds and formulations for the treatment or prevention of M4-mediated diseases or disorders is essential.

[0048] Terms and Definitions

[0049] Unless otherwise stated or there is a clear conflict in the context, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. In case of any discrepancy, the definitions provided herein shall prevail. When trade names appear herein, they are intended to refer to the corresponding product or its active ingredient. All patents, published patent applications, and publications cited herein are incorporated herein by reference.

[0050] The term “optional” or “optionally” means that the event or situation described below may, but not necessarily, occur, and the description includes both the cases in which the event or situation occurs and the cases in which it does not occur.

[0051] The term "optionally substituted" may be used interchangeably with the term "substituted or unsubstituted," meaning that the structure or group is unsubstituted or substituted by one or more substituents as described in this invention, wherein the substitution occurs at a reasonable position permissible by any valence on the given structure or group. If the substitution occurs on a structure or group that is not allowed to be substituted, then the substituent is absent. For example, "optionally substituted..." means that the group is unsubstituted or substituted by one or more specified or unspecified substituents, such as substituted by 1-3 substituents, substituted by 2 substituents, or substituted by 1 substituent. Unless otherwise specified, as used herein, the connection point of a substituent may arise from any suitable position of the substituent. When the bond of a substituent is shown as a bond connecting two atoms through a ring, such a substituent may be bonded to any cyclic atom in the substituted ring.

[0052] Generally, the term "substituted" means that one or more hydrogen atoms in a given structure or group are replaced by a specific substituent. Unless otherwise indicated, a substituent may be substituted at any of the reasonable substituted positions in the group. When more than one position in a given structural formula can be substituted by one or more specific substituents selected from the group, the substituents may be substituted at the reasonable positions in the structural formula, either in the same or different ways.

[0053] Additionally, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly stated, the descriptions used in this invention as “each independently” or “independently” should be interpreted broadly. This can mean that the specific options expressed by the same symbols in different groups do not affect each other, or that the specific options expressed by the same symbols in the same group do not affect each other.

[0054] When the lower and upper limits of a numerical range are disclosed, any value falling within that range and any included range are specifically disclosed. In particular, each range of values ​​disclosed herein should be understood as representing each value and range encompassed within a wider range. When any variable (e.g., Ra), and labeled variables (e.g., R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R7, etc.) appear more than once in the composition or structure of a compound, its definition is independent in each instance. For example, if a group is substituted by 0, 1, 2, or 3 Ra substituents, the group may optionally be substituted by up to three Ra substituents, and the options for each Ra substituent in each instance are independent of each other; that is, each Ra substituent may be the same or different.

[0055] In various parts of this specification, the substituents of the compounds disclosed herein are disclosed according to the type or range of groups. In particular, this invention includes every independent sub-combination of the members of these types and ranges.
