Description

Benzene ether compounds containing hexahydrofurano[3,2-b]furan structure and their applications Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the pharmaceutical field, specifically relating to a phenyl ether compound containing a hexahydrofuran[3,2-b]furan structure and its applications. Background Technology

[0002] Gout is a chronic arthritis caused by hyperuricemia and the deposition of urate crystals around the joints. When too much uric acid is produced or not enough is excreted from the body, it deposits in the joints and soft tissues, triggering an inflammatory response. Uric acid levels are related to purine levels in the body. With the continuous improvement of living standards, the intake of purine-rich foods has gradually increased, leading to a significant increase in the number of people with hyperuricemia and gout.

[0003] Currently, there are three main types of drugs for treating gout: drugs that inhibit uric acid production, drugs that promote uric acid excretion, and anti-inflammatory drugs. Uric acid is the final product of purine metabolism in the human body. Xanthine oxidase is a key enzyme in purine metabolism, which oxidizes hypoxanthine to xanthine, and further oxidizes xanthine to uric acid. Therefore, xanthine oxidase inhibitors can lower uric acid levels in the body by inhibiting uric acid production, thereby achieving the therapeutic goal. Allopurinol, a purine-based xanthine oxidase inhibitor marketed in 1966, is used to treat primary and secondary hyperuricemia. Allopurinol and its metabolite oxypurine can both exert their effects by inhibiting xanthine oxidase. However, as a purine analogue, allopurinol can also interfere with normal purine metabolism, potentially leading to severe hypersensitivity reactions. In addition, it can cause side effects such as gastrointestinal discomfort, nephrotoxicity, toxic epidermal necrolysis, and Stevens-Johnson syndrome. Non-purine inhibitors selectively inhibit xanthine oxidase without affecting other enzymes responsible for purine or pyrimidine metabolism, thus avoiding hypersensitivity syndrome caused by allopurinol and exhibiting superior safety compared to purine xanthine oxidase inhibitors. Febuxostat, a selective non-purine xanthine oxidase inhibitor developed by Teijin Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. of Japan, was approved by the FDA in 2009. Febuxostat is primarily metabolized by the liver and is suitable for patients with renal insufficiency. However, due to its increased cardiovascular risk, the FDA issued a black box warning for it in 2019. Topiroxostat, a non-purine xanthine oxidase inhibitor developed by Fuji Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., was launched in Japan in 2013 for the treatment of hyperuricemia and is not currently available in other countries. Topiroxostat may cause gouty arthritis, and its global application is currently limited; its clinical efficacy and adverse reactions are not yet fully understood. Tigulixostat is a selective xanthine oxidase inhibitor developed by LG Life Sciences in South Korea. The compound has in vitro activity comparable to febuxostat and significant uric acid-lowering effects in vivo. It is currently in Phase III clinical trials and is a promising clinical investigational drug.

[0004] Because current xanthine oxidase inhibitors used in clinical practice still have significant shortcomings, and the number of patients with hyperuricemia and gout worldwide is increasing year by year, the clinical demand for anti-gout drugs has not yet been met. Therefore, the development of highly effective and low-toxicity xanthine oxidase inhibitors has very important clinical value. Summary of the Invention

[0158] 2.2 Test Procedure

[0159] (1) SPF-grade ICR male mice were randomly divided into groups of 8 mice each. They were fasted and allowed free access to water for 12 hours. Subsequently, except for the control group, the mice in the other groups were administered hypoxanthine (400 mg / kg) and potassium oxonate (300 mg / kg) by gavage to induce an acute hyperuricemia model in mice. The control group was given a solvent control.

[0160] (2) One hour later, the model group was given the solvent control by gavage, while the other groups were given the test compound (at a dose of 5 mg / kg). Two hours after administration, 500 μL of blood was collected from the fundus venous plexus of each group.

[0161] (3) After the collected blood coagulated at room temperature for 1 hour, all blood samples were centrifuged (3500 rpm·min). -1 The absorbance at 510 nm was measured using a uric acid assay kit (10 min, 4℃).

[0162] (4) All data were analyzed and plotted using GraphpadPrism software.

[0163] The uric acid-lowering activity results of Examples 13, 14, and 15 in the mouse model of acute hyperuricemia are shown in Figure 1; the uric acid-lowering activity results of Examples 15, 16, and 19 in the mouse model of acute hyperuricemia are shown in Figure 2.
