Background
5-hydroxytryptamine, a neurotransmitter that transmits signals in the brain and nervous system, plays an important role in Central Nervous System (CNS) dysfunction, especially anxiety, depression, aggression and impulsive mood. Antagonism or agonism of certain types of 5-hydroxytryptamine receptors can be effective in modulating central nervous system dysfunction. To date, at least 14 5-hydroxytryptamine receptors have been identified. These receptors can be divided into different families, which are designated as 5-HT1、5-HT2、5-HT3、5-HT4、5-HT5、5-HT6And 5-HT7And the different subtypes in each group are distinguished by a, b, c, etc.
Of all indications associated with 5-hydroxytryptamine dysfunction, depression is of prime importance, as it has been reported by the world health organization as the fourth most burdensome disease in humans. It is expected that disability from depression will jump to the second place in all diseases by the year 2020. (Bromet E, Andlade LH, Hwang I, et al, Cross-national epidemiology of DSM-IV major depression epsilon. BMC Med.2011,9: 90).
Historically, the treatment of mood disorders began in the 50's of the 20 th century and included tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) and monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs) which were primarily therapeutic by blocking neurotransmitters (dopamine, norepinephrine and 5-hydroxytryptamine). However, non-selective and undesirable side effects on targets limit their use. By the 80's of the 20 th century, the appearance of selective 5-hydroxytryptamine reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) changed this aspect. Such drugs are of comparable efficacy to TCAs, but have fewer side effects and less toxicity even when taken in excess (SarkoJ. Anddidepressant, old and new. A review of the same effects and toxin over. Emerg Med Clin North Am, 2000; 18(4): 637-54).
The invention provides novel compounds with 5-hydroxytryptamine reuptake inhibition activity, and the compounds have good clinical application prospects. Compared with the existing similar compounds, the compound of the invention has better drug effect, pharmacokinetic property and/or toxicological property.

Detailed description of the invention
Definitions and general terms
Reference will now be made in detail to certain embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated by the accompanying structural and chemical formulas. The invention is intended to cover alternatives, modifications and equivalents, which may be included within the scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims. Those skilled in the art will recognize that many methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in the practice of the present invention. The present invention is in no way limited to the methods and materials described herein. In the event that one or more of the incorporated documents, patents, and similar materials differ or contradict this application (including but not limited to defined terminology, application of terminology, described techniques, and the like), this application controls.
It will be further appreciated that certain features of the invention, which are, for clarity, described in the context of separate embodiments, may also be provided in combination in a single embodiment. Conversely, various features of the invention which are, for brevity, described in the context of a single embodiment, may also be provided separately or in any suitable subcombination.
Unless defined otherwise, 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 belongs. All patents and publications referred to herein are incorporated by reference in their entirety.
The following definitions as used herein should be applied unless otherwise indicated. For the purposes of the present invention, the chemical elements are in accordance with the CAS version of the periodic Table of the elements, and the handbook of chemistry and Physics, 75 th edition, 1994. In addition, general principles of Organic Chemistry can be found in the descriptions of "Organic Chemistry", Thomas Sorrell, University Science Books, Sausaltito: 1999, and "March's Advanced Organic Chemistry" by Michael B.Smith and Jerry March, John Wiley & Sons, New York:2007, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
The articles "a," "an," and "the" as used herein are intended to include "at least one" or "one or more" unless otherwise indicated or clearly contradicted by context. Thus, as used herein, the articles refer to articles of one or more than one (i.e., at least one) object. For example, "a component" refers to one or more components, i.e., there may be more than one component contemplated for use or use in embodiments of the described embodiments.
The term "patient" as used herein refers to humans (including adults and children) or other animals. In some embodiments, "patient" refers to a human.
The term "stereoisomers" refers to compounds having the same chemical structure, but differing in the arrangement of atoms or groups in space. Stereoisomers include enantiomers, diastereomers, conformers (rotamers), geometric isomers (cis/trans), atropisomers, and the like.
The stereochemical definitions and rules used in the present invention generally follow the general definitions of S.P. Parker, Ed., McGraw-Hilldictionary of Chemical Terms (1984) McGraw-Hill Book Company, New York; andEliel, E.and Wilen, S, "Stereochemistry of Organic Compounds", John Wiley & Sons, Inc, New York, 1994. Many organic compounds exist in an optically active form, i.e., they have the ability to rotate the plane of plane polarized light. In describing optically active compounds, the prefixes D and L or R and S are used to denote the absolute configuration of a molecule with respect to one or more of its chiral centers. The prefixes d and l or (+) and (-) are the symbols used to specify the rotation of plane polarized light by the compound, where (-) or l indicates that the compound is left-handed. Compounds prefixed with (+) or d are dextrorotatory. A particular stereoisomer is an enantiomer and a mixture of such isomers is referred to as an enantiomeric mixture. A50: 50 mixture of enantiomers is referred to as a racemic mixture or racemate, which may occur when there is no stereoselectivity or stereospecificity in the chemical reaction or process.
Any asymmetric atom (e.g., carbon, etc.) of a compound disclosed herein can exist in racemic or enantiomerically enriched forms, such as the (R) -, (S) -or (R, S) -configuration. In certain embodiments, each asymmetric atom has at least 50% enantiomeric excess, at least 60% enantiomeric excess, at least 70% enantiomeric excess, at least 80% enantiomeric excess, at least 90% enantiomeric excess, at least 95% enantiomeric excess, or at least 99% enantiomeric excess in the (R) -or (S) -configuration.
The racemates of any of the resulting end products or intermediates can be resolved into the optical enantiomers by known methods using methods familiar to those skilled in the art, e.g., by separation of the diastereomeric salts obtained. The racemic product can also be separated by chiral chromatography, e.g., High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) using a chiral adsorbent.
The term "tautomer" or "tautomeric form" refers to structural isomers having different energies that can interconvert by a low energy barrier (lowenergy barrier). If tautomerism is possible (e.g., in solution), then the chemical equilibrium of the tautomer can be reached. For example, proton tautomers (also known as proton transfer tautomers) include interconversions by proton migration, such as keto-enol isomerization and imine-enamine isomerization.
"pharmaceutically acceptable" refers to those compounds, materials, compositions, and/or dosage forms which are, within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of patients without excessive toxicity, irritation, allergic response, or other problem or complication commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio, and which are effective for their intended use.
The term "optional" or "optionally" means that the subsequently described event or circumstance may, but need not, occur, and that the description includes instances where said event or circumstance occurs and instances where it does not. For example, "optional bond" means that the bond may or may not be present, and the description includes single, double, or triple bonds.
The compounds of the invention may be optionally substituted with one or more substituents, as described herein, such as compounds of the general formula above, or as specifically exemplified, sub-classified and encompassed within the examples.
The term "optionally substituted", is used interchangeably with the term "unsubstituted or substituted with …., i.e., the structure is unsubstituted or substituted with one or more substituents described herein, including, but not limited to, D, F, Cl, N3,-CN,-OH,-SH,-NH2Alkyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylamino, cycloalkyl, heterocyclyl, aryl, heteroaryl and the like.
In addition, unless otherwise expressly indicated, the description of the invention wherein "… is independently" and "… is independently" and "… is independently" is to be understood in a broad sense means that the particular items expressed between the same symbols do not affect each other in the different groups, or that the particular items expressed between the same symbols do not affect each other in the same groups.
The term "comprising" is open-ended, i.e. includes the elements indicated in the present invention, but does not exclude other elements.
The term "unsaturated" or "unsaturated" means that the moiety contains one or more degrees of unsaturation.
In the various parts of this specification, substituents of the disclosed compounds are disclosed in terms of group type or range. It is specifically intended that the invention includes each and every independent subcombination of the various members of these groups and ranges. For example, the term "C1-C6Alkyl "means in particular independently disclosed methyl, ethyl, C3Alkyl radical, C4Alkyl radical, C5Alkyl and C6An alkyl group.
In each of the parts of the invention, linking substituents are described. Where the structure clearly requires a linking group, the markush variables listed for that group are understood to be linking groups. For example, if the structure requires a linking group and the markush group definition for the variable recites "alkyl" or "aryl," it is understood that the "alkyl" or "aryl" represents an attached alkylene group or arylene group, respectively.
The terms "halogen" and "halo" are used interchangeably herein to refer to fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), or iodine (I).
The term "alkyl" or "alkyl group" as used herein, denotes a saturated, straight or branched chain, monovalent hydrocarbon group containing 1 to 20 carbon atoms, wherein the alkyl group may be optionally substituted with one or more substituents as described herein. In one embodiment, the alkyl group contains 1 to 6 carbon atoms; in another embodiment, the alkyl group contains 1 to 4 carbon atoms; in yet another embodiment, the alkyl group contains 1 to 3 carbon atoms. Examples of alkyl groups include, but are not limited to, methyl (Me, -CH)3) Ethyl group (Et, -CH)2CH3) N-propyl (n-Pr, -CH)2CH2CH3) Isopropyl group (i-Pr, -CH (CH)3)2) N-butyl (n-Bu, -CH)2CH2CH2CH3) Isobutyl (i-Bu, -CH)2CH(CH3)2) Sec-butyl (s-Bu, -CH (CH)3)CH2CH3) Tert-butyl (t-Bu, -C (CH)3)3) And so on.
The term "alkylene" denotes a saturated divalent hydrocarbon radical resulting from the removal of two hydrogen atoms from a saturated straight or branched chain hydrocarbon. Unless otherwise specified, the alkylene group contains 1 to 12 carbon atoms. Examples of this include methylene (-CH)2-, ethylene (-CH)2CH2-, isopropylidene (-CH (CH)3)CH2-) and the like.
The term "alkenyl" denotes a straight or branched chain monovalent hydrocarbon radical containing 2 to 12 carbon atoms, wherein there is at least one site of unsaturation, i.e. one carbon-carbon sp2A double bond, wherein the alkenyl group may be optionally substituted with one or more substituents described herein, including the positioning of "cis" and "trans", or the positioning of "E" and "Z".
