Among the compounds of general formula (I), the following compounds may be mentioned (IUPAC nomenclature generated by the AutoNom software):
The compounds of general formula (I) may comprise one or more asymmetric carbons. They may exist in the form of enantiomers or diastereoisomers. The compounds of general formula (I) may also exist in the form of cis (Z) or trans (E) stereoisomers. These stereoisomers, enantiomers and diastereoisomers, and also mixtures thereof, including racemic mixtures, form part of the invention.
The compounds of formula (I) may exist in the form of bases or of acid-addition salts. Such addition salts form part of the invention.
These salts are advantageously prepared with pharmaceutically acceptable acids, but the salts of other acids that are useful, for example, for purifying or isolating the compounds of formula (I) also form part of the invention.
In the context of the invention, the following definitions apply:
The compounds of the invention may be prepared according to various methods, illustrated by the schemes that follow.
Thus, a first method (scheme 1) consists in reacting an amine of general formula (II), in which A, R1, R2, m and n are as defined in the general formula (I) defined above, with a carbonate of general formula (III) in which Z represents a hydrogen atom or a nitro group, and R3 and R4 are as defined in the general formula (I) defined above, in the presence of a base such as triethylamine, pyridine, N,N-dimethylaminopyridine or diisopropylethylamine in a solvent such as toluene or 1,2-dichloroethane, at a temperature between room temperature and the reflux temperature of the solvent.
One variant for obtaining the compounds of general formula (I) (scheme 1) consists in reacting an amine of general formula (II), as defined above, with phenyl or 4-nitrophenyl chloroformate, in the presence of a base such as triethylamine or diisopropylethylamine, in a solvent such as dichloromethane or tetrahydrofuran, at a temperature between 0° C. and room temperature, to give the carbamate derivative of general formula (IV), in which A, R1, R2, m and n are as defined in the general formula (I) defined above, and Z represents a hydrogen atom or a nitro group. The carbamate derivative of general formula (IV) thus obtained is then converted into a compound of general formula (I), via the action of an alcohol of general formula HOCHR3R4 (IIIa), as defined above, in the presence of a base such as triethylamine, pyridine, N,N-dimethylaminopyridine or diisopropylethylamine, in a solvent such as toluene or dichloroethane, at a temperature between room temperature and the reflux temperature of the solvent.
A second method (scheme 2) allows production of compounds of general formula (I), in which R1 represents a group R5 substituted especially with a group R6 of the type C1-6-alkyl, C3-7-cycloalkyl or C3-7-cycloalkyl-C1-3-alkylene, or with a group R7 as defined in the general formula (I) defined above.
Thus, the first step consists in reacting an amine of general formula (IIa), in which A, R2, m and n are as defined in the general formula (I) defined above, and PG represents a protecting group such as a Boc (tert-butyloxycarbonyl), a CBz (benzyloxycarbonyl), a benzyl or a benzhydryl, with a derivative of general formula (V), in which R5 is as defined above, U1 represents a halogen atom or an O-triflate group and U2 represents a chlorine, bromine or iodine atom or an O-triflate group, using aromatic or heteroaromatic nucleophilic substitution or Buchwald N-arylation or N-heteroarylation reactions, for example by means of a palladium or copper catalyst, to obtain the intermediate of general formula (IVa), in which A, R2, R5, m, n, U2 and PG are as defined above. The compound (IVa) thus obtained is used, in a first stage, in a deprotection reaction, for example in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid or of a solution of hydrogen chloride (5N) in isopropanol or dioxane, followed by a condensation reaction with a carbonate of general formula (III) as defined above, under the conditions described for scheme 1 above, to give the carbamate derivative of general formula (IVb), in which A, R2, R5, m, N, U2 and Z are as defined above. The compound of general formula (IVb) thus obtained is then converted into a carbamate derivative of general formula (Ia), via the action of an alcohol of general formula HOCHR3R4 (IIIa), as defined above, in the presence of a base such as triethylamine, pyridine, N,N-dimethylaminopyridine or N,N-diisopropylethylamine, in a solvent such as toluene or dichloroethane, at a temperature between room temperature and the reflux temperature of the solvent. The final step consists in performing a coupling reaction catalysed with a transition metal such as palladium(0), on the intermediate of general formula (Ia), in which A, R2, R3, R4, R5, m, n and U2 are as defined above, U2 being in the position in which it is desired to introduce the group R6 or R7:
A third method (scheme 3) consists in reacting, in a first stage, an amine of general formula (IIb) in which A, R2, m and n are as defined in the general formula (I) defined above, and PG is as defined above, with a carbonate of general formula (III) as defined above, under the conditions described above for the reaction of the amine of general formula (II) with the carbonate of general formula (III), followed by a deprotection reaction, for example in the presence of a solution of hydrogen chloride (5N) in isopropanol or dioxane, to obtain the intermediate of general formula (Ia), in which A, R2, R3, R4, m and n are as defined in the general formula (I).
One variant for obtaining the intermediates of general formula (Ib) (scheme 3, route A variant) consists in reacting an amine of general formula (IIa), as defined above, with phenyl or 4-nitrophenyl chloroformate, under the conditions described above when the compound of formula (II) reacts with the compound of formula (IV) (scheme 1, variant), to give the carbamate derivative of general formula (IVc), in which A, R2, m and n are as defined in the general formula (I) defined above, and PG and Z are as defined above. The carbamate derivative of general formula (IVc) thus obtained is then converted into a compound of general formula (Ia), via the action of an alcohol of general formula HOCHR3R4 (IIIa), under the conditions described above when the compound of formula (IV) reacts with the compound of formula (IIIa) (scheme 1, variant).
The compound of general formula (I) is then obtained by reaction of the compound of general formula (Ib) with a derivative of general formula (Va), in which R1 and U1 are as defined in the general formula (I), using aromatic or heteroaromatic nucleophilic substitution reaction conditions, for example by means of a base such as triethylamine, diisopropylethylamine, pyridine or N,N-dimethylaminopyridine in a solvent such as dichloromethane, dichloroethane, acetonitrile, N,N-dimethylformamide, dioxane or tetrahydrofuran, at a temperature between 0° C. and the reflux temperature of the solvent. This conversion may also be performed using the Buchwald N-arylation or N-heteroarylation conditions, for example by means of a palladium or copper catalyst.
According to scheme 3, route B, the compounds of general formula (I), in which R1 represents a group R5 substituted especially with a group R6 of the type C1-6-alkyl, C3-7-cycloalkyl or C3-7-cycloalkyl-C1-3-alkylene, or with a group R7 as defined in the general formula (I) defined above, may also be prepared according to a coupling reaction, catalysed with a transition metal, for example palladium(0), performed on the compound of general formula (Ia), in which A, R2, R3, R4, R5, m, n, o and p are as defined in the general formula (I) and U2 represents a chlorine, bromine or iodine atom or a triflate group, U2 being in the position in which it is desired to introduce the group R6 or R7 (scheme 3, route B) according to the reaction conditions used for converting the compound of formula (Ia) into a compound of formula (I) (see scheme 2).
The intermediate of general formula (Ia) as defined above is first obtained by reacting an amine of general formula (Ib) as defined above with a derivative of general formula (Vb) in which R5, U1 and U2 are as defined above under the conditions described above in scheme 2 when the compound of formula (IIa) reacts with the compound of formula (V) to give the compound of formula (IVa).
One variant for obtaining the intermediates of general formula (Ia) (scheme 3, route B variant) consists in reacting, in a first stage, an amine of general formula (IIb), in which A, R5, R2, m and n are as defined in the general formula (I) defined above, and U2 is as defined above, with a carbonate of general formula (III) as defined above, under the conditions described above for the reaction of the amine of general formula (II) with the carbonate of general formula (III), to give the intermediate of general formula (Ia), in which A, R5, R2, R3, R4, m and n are as defined in the general formula (I), and U2 is as defined above.

The IUPAC (International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry) nomenclature was used to name the compounds in the examples below.
11.00 g (46.43 mmol) of 2,5-dibromopyridine, 6.00 g (46.43 mmol) of piperidin-4-ylethanol and 6.74 g (48.76 mmol) of potassium carbonate in 8 mL of DMSO are placed in an autoclave. The mixture is then heated at 160° C. for 20 hours. The reaction mixture is allowed to cool to room temperature and then taken up in ethyl acetate and water. The aqueous phase is separated out and extracted twice with ethyl acetate, and the combined organic phases are washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution and dried over sodium sulfate, and the filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure.
11.00 g of product are thus obtained in the form of an oil, which is used in the next step without further purification.
Under an inert atmosphere, 3.60 g (12.62 mmol) of 2-(5′-bromo-3,4,5,6-tetrahydro-2H-[1,2′]bipyridinyl-4-yl)ethanol, prepared in step 1.1., 3.53 g (25.25 mmol) of 4-fluorophenylboronic acid, 5.23 g (37.87 mmol) of potassium carbonate and 4.88 g (15.15 mmol) of tetrabutylammonium bromide in suspension are introduced into 20 mL of water. 0.142 g (0.63 mmol) of Pd(OAc)2 is then added. The reaction mixture is refluxed for 24 hours.
The mixture is allowed to cool to room temperature, the salts are separated out by filtration on Celite, the filtrate is then taken up in ethyl acetate, the aqueous phase is separated out and extracted twice with ethyl acetate, and the combined organic phases are washed with saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution and dried over sodium sulfate. After evaporating off the solvent, the residue obtained is purified by chromatography on silica gel, eluting with a 50/50 mixture of ethyl acetate and cyclohexane.
1.6 g of product are thus obtained in the form of a white powder.

Stirring is continued at 0° C. for 1 hour, and then at room temperature for 12 hours. The mixture is concentrated under reduced pressure, and the residue is taken up in dichloromethane and water. The aqueous phase is separated out and then extracted twice with dichloromethane. The organic phases are combined and washed successively with aqueous hydrochloric acid solution (1N), and then with saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate solution and saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution. The organic phase is dried over sodium sulfate and the filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue thus obtained is purified by chromatography on silica gel, eluting with a 20/80 mixture of ethyl acetate and cyclohexane.
2.1 g of the expected product are thus obtained in the form of a white powder.
m.p. (° C.)=180-182° C.

The reaction mixture is then refluxed for 3 hours.
The mixture is allowed to cool to room temperature, the insoluble material is separated out by filtration and the filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure.

1H NMR
The compounds of the invention underwent pharmacological tests to determine their inhibitory effect on the enzyme FAAH (Fatty Acid Amide Hydrolase).
Protocol 1: The inhibitory activity was demonstrated in a radioenzymatic test based on measuring the product of hydrolysis of anandamide [ethanolamine 1-3H] with FAAH (Life Sciences (1995), 56, 1999-2005 and Journal of Biochemical and Biophysical Methods (2004), 60(2), 171-177). Thus, mouse brains (minus the cerebellum) are removed and stored at −80° C. The membrane homogenates are prepared extemporaneously by homogenizing the tissues using a Precellys® machine in reaction buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl, pH=8, 150 mM NaCl and 1 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)). The enzymatic reaction is performed in 96-well Multiscreen filtration plates in a final volume of 70 μL. Reaction buffer supplemented with fatty acid-free bovine serum albumin (BSA, 1 mg/ml) is used for the enzymatic reaction and the dilution of the compounds and of the anandamide [ethanolamine 1-3H]. The reaction buffer containing BSA (43 μL/well), the diluted test compounds at different concentrations (7 μL/well containing 1% DMSO) and the membrane preparation (10 μL/well, i.e. 200 pg of tissue per test) are successively added to the wells. After preincubation for 20 minutes of the compounds with the enzyme at 25° C., the reaction is started by adding anandamide [ethanolamine 1-3H]. (Specific activity of 15-20 Ci/mmol) diluted with cold anandamide (10 μL/well, final concentration of 10 μM, 0.01 ρCi per test). After incubation for 20 minutes at 25° C., the enzymatic reaction is stopped by adding a 5M solution of active charcoal prepared in 1.5M NaCl buffer and 0.5 M HCl (50 μL/well). The mixture is stirred for 10 minutes and the aqueous phase containing the ethanolamine [1-3H] is then recovered by filtration under vacuum and counted by liquid scintillation.
Protocol 2: The inhibitory activity was demonstrated via a fluorescent technique in an enzymatic test based on measuring the fluorescent product of hydrolysis of arachidonoyl 7-amino-4-methylcoumarin amide (AAMC) with FAAH (Analytical Biochemistry (2005), 343:143-151, J. of Biomolecular Screening (2006), 11(5): 519-527 and J. of Neurosciences Methods (2007), 161: 47-54). Thus, mouse brains (minus the cerebellum) are withdrawn and stored at −80° C. The brain homogenates are prepared extemporaneously by homogenizing the tissues using a Precellys® machine in reaction buffer (10 mM Tris-HCl, pH=8, 150 mM NaCl and 1 mM ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)). The enzymatic reaction is performed in black polystyrene 384-well plates in a final volume of 50 μL. Reaction buffer supplemented with fatty acid-free bovine serum albumin (BSA, 1 mg/ml) is used for the enzymatic reaction, the dilution of the compounds and the dilution of the AAMC. Reaction buffer containing the BSA (25 μL/well), the diluted test compounds at different concentrations (5 μL/well containing 1% DMSO) and the membrane preparation (10 μL/well, i.e. 200 μg of tissue per test) are successively added to the wells. After preincubation for 20 minutes of the compounds with the enzyme at 25° C., the reaction is started by adding 10 μL of substrate per well (AAMC, final concentration of 10 μM). After incubation for 40 minutes, the aminomethyl coumarin (AMC) produced is measured by fluorescent counting (Envision plate reader).
Under these conditions, the compounds of the invention that are the most active have IC50 values (concentration that inhibits 50% of the control enzymatic activity of FAAH) of between 0.001 and 1 μM. Certain compounds have IC50 values of less than 50 nM and more particularly less than 15 nM. Table 3 gives examples of the IC50 values obtained with the compounds of the invention.
It thus appears that the compounds according to the invention have inhibitory activity on the enzyme FAAH.
The in vivo activity of the compounds of the invention was evaluated in a test of analgesia.
Thus, the intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration of PBQ (phenylbenzoquinone, 2 mg/kg in 0.9% sodium chloride solution containing 5% ethanol) to male OF1 mice weighing 25 to 30 g causes abdominal stretching, on average 30 torsions or contractions within a period of 5 to 15 minutes after injection. The test compounds are administered orally (p.o.) or intraperitoneally (i.p.) suspended in Tween 80 at 0.5%, 60 minutes or 120 minutes before the administration of PBQ. Under these conditions, the compounds of the invention that are the most powerful reduce by 30% to 80% the number of stretches induced with PBQ, over a dose range of between 1 and 30 mg/kg.
For example, compounds 1 and 19 of the table reduce, respectively, by 55% and 30% the number of stretches induced with PBQ, at a dose of 30 mg/kg p.o. at 120 minutes.
The enzyme FAAH (Chemistry and Physics of Lipids, (2000), 108, 107-121) catalyses the hydrolysis of the endogenous derivatives of amides and esters of various fatty acids such as N-arachidonoylethanolamine(anandamide), N-palmitoylethanolamine, N-oleoylethanolamine, oleamide or 2-arachidonoylglycerol. These derivatives exert different pharmacological activities by interacting, inter alia, with the cannabinoid and vanilloid receptors.
The compounds of the invention block this degradation pathway and increase the tissue content of these endogenous substances. In this respect, they may be used in the prevention and treatment of pathologies in which the endogenous cannabinoids and/or any other substrate metabolized by the enzyme FAAH are involved. Mention may be made, for example, of the following diseases and complaints: pain, especially acute or chronic pain of neurogenic type: migraine, neuropathic pain including the forms associated with the herpes virus and diabetes and chemotherapy, acute or chronic pain associated with inflammatory diseases: arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, spondylitis, gout, vascularitis, Crohn's disease, irritable bowel syndrome, acute or chronic peripheral pain, vertigo, vomiting, nausea, in particular post-chemotherapy nausea, eating disorders, in particular anorexia and cachexia of diverse nature, neurological and psychiatric pathologies: tremor, dyskinaesia, dystonia, spasticity, compulsive and obsessive behaviour, Tourette's syndrome, all forms of depression and anxiety of any nature or origin, mood disorders, psychoses, acute and chronic neurodegenerative diseases: Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, senile dementia, Huntington's chorea, lesions associated with cerebral ischaemia and cranial and medullary trauma, epilepsy, sleeping disorders, including sleep apnoea, cardiovascular diseases, in particular hypertension, cardiac arrhythmia, arteriosclerosis, heart attack, cardiac ischaemia, renal ischaemia, cancers: benign skin tumours, papillomas and cerebral tumours, prostate tumours, cerebral tumours (gliobastomas, medullo-epitheliomas, medullo-blastomas, neuroblastomas, tumours of embryonic origin, astrocytomas, astroblastomas, ependyomas, oligodendrogliomas, plexus tumour, neuroepitheliomas, pineal gland tumours, ependymoblastomas, malignant meningiomas, sarcomatoses, malignant melanomas, schwennomas), immune system disorders, especially autoimmune diseases: psoriasis, lupus erythematosus, connective tissue diseases, Sjögrer's syndrome, ankylosing spondylitis, undifferentiated spondylitis, Behcet's disease, haemolytic autoimmune anaemias, multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, amylosis, graft rejection, diseases affecting the plasmocytic line, allergic diseases: immediate or delayed hypersensitivity, allergic rhinitis or allergic conjunctivitis, contact dermatitis, parasitic, viral or bacterial infectious diseases: AIDS, meningitis, inflammatory diseases, especially articular diseases: arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, spondylitis, gout, vascularitis, Crohn's disease, irritable bowel syndrome, osteoporosis, ocular complaints: ocular hypertension, glaucoma, pulmonary complaints: respiratory pathway diseases, bronchospasms, coughing, asthma, chronic bronchitis, chronic obstruction of the respiratory pathways, emphysema, gastrointestinal diseases: irritable bowel syndrome, intestinal inflammatory disorders, ulcers, diarrhoea, urinary incontinence and inflammation of the bladder.
