The present disclosure relates to the field of medicinal chemistry. Specifically, the present disclosure relates to a benzamide compound, and more particularly, the present disclosure relates to a benzamide compound, a preparation method thereof, and use thereof in the preparation of drugs.
P2X receptor is a non-selective ATP-gated ion channel receptor, i.e., a purinergic receptor, capable of binding to extracellular ATP mainly derived from damaged or inflamed tissues. This receptor is widely expressed in the nervous, immune, cardiovascular, skeletal, gastrointestinal, respiratory, endocrine, and other systems, and is involved in regulation of cardiac rhythm and contractility, regulation of vascular tone, regulation of nociception (especially chronic pain), contraction of vas deferens during ejaculation, bladder contraction during voiding, aggregation of platelets, activation of macrophages, apoptosis, neuron-glial interactions, and other physiological processes. The above P2X receptor includes: seven homologous receptors, i.e., P2X1, P2X2, P2X3, P2X4, P2X5, P2X6 and P2X7; and three heterologous receptors, i.e., P2X2/3, P2X4/6, P2X1/5.
P2X3 is a subtype of the P2X receptor family and is selectively expressed in dorsal root ganglia, spinal cord, and brain neurons of nerve endings, i.e., in primary sensory neurons of medium and small diameters.
Numerous studies indicate that activation of P2X3 and P2X2/3 expressed in the primary sensory neurons plays an important role in acute injury, hyperalgesia, and hypersensitivity in rodents. Many studies reveal that an up-regulation of P2X3 receptor expression may lead to the formation of hyperalgesia, which is involved in pain signaling. P2X3-knockout mice exhibited reduced pain responses, and P2X3 receptor antagonists exhibited an effect of reducing nociception in models of pain and inflammatory pain.
P2X3 is distributed in primary afferent nerves around the airway and is capable of regulating cough. Studies have indicated that ATP released from damaged or inflamed tissues in the airway acts on P2X3 receptors in primary neurons, triggering depolarization and action potentials, the transfer of the potentials causes the impulse to cough and thus induces coughing. P2X3 receptors play an important role in cough reflex hypersensitivity. By antagonizing the binding to P2X3 receptors, the hypersensitivity of the cough reflex can be inhibited, thereby suppressing excessive coughing in patients with chronic cough. In addition, studies have also indicated that P2X3 antagonists can treat chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases, pulmonary fibrosis, pulmonary hypertension, or asthma. Therefore, P2X3 antagonists are also promising to become new drugs for the treatment of the above-mentioned diseases.
It has been reported that P2X3 is involved in the afferent pathway that controls the bladder volume reflex, and P2X3 knockout mice have significantly reduced urination frequency and significantly increased bladder capacity. Thus, the binding of P2X3 receptor-inhibiting antagonists to P2X3 receptors has effects in the treatment of urinary storage disorders and voiding disorders, such as overactive bladder. Therefore, P2X3 antagonists may be potential drugs for the treatment of overactive bladder and other related diseases.
P2X3 antagonists exhibit a wide application prospect. Currently, the commonly used clinical cough drugs such as Gabapentin, Morphine, and Amitriptyline, or treatment with speech pathology, can reduce cough for many patients, but they are not suitable for all patients. The central nervous system agents such as Gabapentin may cause adverse side effects and thus are unsuitable for long-term medication. It is urgent o develop chronic refractory cough drugs suitable for long-term medication, to provide doctors with more medication options. Therefore, the development of P2X3 antagonists is of great clinical significance.
The present disclosure aims to provide a P2X3 receptor antagonist, which can be used to prepare drugs for treating cough, pains, respiratory diseases, and urogenital diseases.

Unless otherwise indicated, terms used in the present disclosure, including the specification and claims, are defined as follows.
Those skilled in the art can understand that, according to the usual practice in the related art,
in the structural formula of the present disclosure is used to delineate a chemical bond, which is the point at which a moiety or substituent is connected to the core structure or the backbone structure.
The term “pharmaceutically acceptable” is referred for the compounds, materials, compositions and/or dosage forms, and means that they are suitable for use in contact with human and animal tissues without excess toxicity, irritation, allergic reactions or other problems or complications within the scope of reliable medical judgment, and are commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio.
The term “pharmaceutically acceptable salt” refers to salts of pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic acids or bases, including salts of inorganic acids and bases and organic acids and bases.
The term “pharmaceutical composition” refers to a mixture of one or more of the compounds described herein or physiologically/pharmaceutically acceptable salts or prodrugs thereof and other chemical components. The other chemical components can be, for example, physiologically/pharmaceutically acceptable carriers and excipients. The pharmaceutical composition aims to facilitate the administration of the compound to an organism.
The term “excipient” refers to a pharmaceutically acceptable inert ingredient. Examples of the “excipient” include, but are not limited to, binders, disintegrants, lubricants, glidants, stabilizers, fillers, diluents, and the like. The term “solvate” refers to the compound of the present disclosure or a salt thereof bonded with a stoichiometric or non-stoichiometric solvent through an intermolecular non-covalent force. When the solvent is water, the solvate is a hydrate.
The term “prodrug” refers to substances that can be converted, under physiological conditions or through solvolysis, into the compound of the present disclosure having biological activity. The prodrug of the present disclosure is prepared by modifying the functional groups in the compound, and the modification can be removed by conventional operations or removed in vivo, to obtain the parent compound. The prodrug includes a compound which is formed by connecting a hydroxyl group or amino group in the compound of the present disclosure to any group. When the prodrug of the compound of the present disclosure is administered to a mammal individual, the prodrug is dissociated to form a free hydroxyl or amino group.
The term “stereoisomer” refers to an isomer produced by a different spatial arrangement of atoms in the molecule, including cis and trans isomers, enantiomers, diastereomers, and conformers.
In accordance with the selection of raw materials and methods, the compound of the present disclosure may exist in the form of one of the possible isomers or a mixture thereof, for example, as a pure optical isomer, or as a mixture of isomers such as a racemic mixture and a diastereoisomeric mixture, depending on the number of asymmetric carbon atoms. When describing a compound with an optical activity, the prefixes D and L, or R and S are symbols used to denote the absolute configuration of the molecule with respect to the chiral center (or multiple chiral centers) in the molecule. The prefixes D and L, or (+) and (−) are symbols used to specify a rotation of plane-polarized light caused by a compound, where (−) or L indicates that the compound is levorotatory, and the prefix (+) or D indicates that the compound is dextrorotatory. For a given chemical structure, these stereoisomers are identical except that these stereoisomers are mirror images of each other. Specific stereoisomers can be referred to as enantiomers, and a mixture of such isomers is called an enantiomeric mixture. A mixture of enantiomers in 50:50 is called a racemic mixture or a racemate, which may occur when there is no stereoselectivity or stereospecificity in a chemical reaction or process. Numerous geometric isomers of olefins, C═N double bonds, etc. may also exist in the compounds described herein, and all such stable isomers shall be contemplated in the present disclosure. If the compounds described herein contain olefinic double bonds, such double bonds include both E- and Z-geometric isomers, unless otherwise specified. If the compound contains a disubstituted cycloalkyl, the substituent of the cycloalkyl may have a cis- or trans-conformation.
When the bond with a chiral carbon in the formula of the present disclosure is depicted in a straight line, it should be understood that the two configurations (R) and (S) of the chiral carbon and both the resulting enantiomerically pure compound and mixture are included in the scope defined by the general formula. The diagrammatic presentation of the racemate or enantiomerically pure compound herein is from Maehr, J. Chem. Ed. 1985, 62: 114-120. Unless otherwise specified, the wedge bond and the dashed bond are used to represent the absolute configuration of a stereocenter.
Optically active (R)- or (S)-isomers can be prepared using chiral synthons or chiral preparations, or resolved using conventional techniques. The compounds of the present disclosure containing asymmetrically substituted carbon atoms can be separated in an optically active form or in a racemic form. The resolution of a racemic mixture of a compound can be carried out with any of a variety of methods known in the art. Exemplary methods include fractional recrystallization using chiral resolving acids, which are optically active salt-forming organic acids. For example, the suitable resolving agents for fractional recrystallization are optically active acids, such as tartaric acid, diacetyl tartaric acid, dibenzoyl tartaric acid, mandelic acid, malic acid, lactic acid, or various optically active camphor sulfonic acids such as the D and L forms of β-camphor sulfonic acid. Other resolving agents suitable for fractional crystallization include α-methyl-benzylamine in a pure stereoisomeric form (for example, S and R forms or a diastereomerically pure form), 2-phenylglycinol, norephedrine, ephedrine, N-methylephedrine, cyclohexylethylamine, 1, 2-diaminocyclohexane, etc. The resolution of the racemic mixture can also be carried out by elution on a column filled with an optically active resolving agent (for example, dinitrobenzoylphenylglycine). High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) can also be employed. The specific method, elution conditions, and the chromatographic columns can be selected by those skilled in the art according to the structures of the compounds and the experimental results. Further, pure optically active starting materials or reagents with known configurations can also be used to obtain any enantiomers or diastereomers of the compounds described in the present disclosure through stereo-organic synthesis.
The term “tautomer” refers to an isomer of a functional group resulting from a rapid movement of an atom between two positions in a molecule. The compound of the present disclosure may exhibit tautomerism. Tautomeric compounds can be present in two or more mutually convertible species. The prototropic tautomer is resulted from a migration of covalently bonded hydrogen atoms between two atoms. The tautomer generally exists in an equilibrium form. When trying to separate a single tautomer, a mixture is usually produced, the physical and chemical properties of which are consistent with the mixture of compounds. The position of equilibrium depends on the intramolecularly chemical properties. For example, for many aliphatic aldehydes and ketones, such as acetaldehyde, the ketonic type is dominant; and for phenols, the enol type is dominant. All tautomeric forms of the compounds are included in the present disclosure.
The compound of the present disclosure may contain atomic isotopes in an unnatural ratio on one or more of the atoms constituting the compound. For example, the compound may be labeled with a radioisotope, such as deuterium (2H), tritium (3H), iodine-125 (125I), or C-14 (14C). The transformation of all isotopic compositions of the compounds of the present disclosure, whether radioactive or not, are included within the scope of the present disclosure.
With respect to a drug or pharmacologically active agent, the term “effective amount” or “therapeutically effective amount” refers to a non-toxic but sufficient amount of the drug or agent to achieve the desired effects. For oral dosage forms in the present disclosure, an “effective amount” of one active substance in a composition refers to an amount required to achieve the desired effects when used in combination with another active substance in the composition. The determination of the effective amount varies from person to person, depending on the age and general condition of the subject, as well as the specific active substance. The appropriate effective amount in individual cases can be determined by those skilled in the art based on routine experiments.
The terms “active component”, “therapeutic agent”, “active substance”, or “active agent” refer to a chemical entity that is effective in treating the target disorder, disease, or condition.
The term “substituted” means that any one or more hydrogen atoms on a specified atom are replaced by one or more substituents, including deuterium and hydrogen variants, as long as the valence of the specified atom is normal and the substituted compound is stable. When the substituent is keto (i.e., ═O), it means that two hydrogen atoms are substituted. Ketone substitution does not occur on aromatic groups. The term “optionally substituted” means that it is substituted or unsubstituted. Unless otherwise specified, the type and number of substituents may be arbitrary on a chemically achievable basis.

The antagonistic activity of hP2X3 antagonists against hP2X3 receptor was evaluated by means of FLIPR Calcium 4 Assay Kit (Molecular Devices, R8141) and FLIPR TETRA instrument (Molecular Devices, 0296) by detecting calcium flow signals. 24h before the experiment, human cells, which had been stably transfected with hP2X3 receptors, were plated on a 384-well plate at 2×105 cells/mL, with 50 μL of cell suspension per well, and the plate was cultured in an incubator (37° C., 5% CO2) for 16 h to 24 h. The test compound solution (20 to 50 mM DMSO stock solution) with a concentration of 180 times the required concentration was prepared using DMSO. The stock solution was added to the 384-well plate at 500 nL per well, supplemented with 30 μL of FLIPR Assay buffer (1×HBSS+2 mM CaCl2 20 mM HEPES containing 1.26 mM Ca2+). The 384-well plate was shaken for 20 to 40 min to mix evenly. An agonist (α, β-meATP) with a concentration of 3 times the required concentration (required final concentration was 400 nM) was prepared with FLIPR Assay buffer, and was added to another 384-well plate at 45 μL per well. The culture plate, on which the cells were plated one day ago, was taken, the cell supernatant was sucked and discarded, each well was added with 30 μL of Dye (FLIPR® Calcium 4 Assay Kit, diluted with FLIPR buffer), and then the plate was incubated for 1h. 15 μL of compound was added to each well of cells (using FLIPR sample injector). After 15 minutes, 22.5 μL of the agonist was added to each well, and the fluorescence signal (exciting light wavelength ranging from 470 nm to 495 nm, and emission wavelength ranging from 515 nm to 575 nm) was detect. The difference between signal peak value and valley value was taken as the basic data; the highest concentration data of positive drug was taken as the 100% inhibition rate; and DMSO data was regarded as the 0% inhibition rate. An inhibition effect curve of the compound was fitted on the software GraphpadPrism6, and the IC50 value was calculated.
