The present invention relates to novel compounds of the general formula (I) having an excellent antibacterial activity against tuberculosis bacteria, including their tautomeric forms, their stereoisomers, their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, pharmaceutical compositions containing them, methods for their preparation, use of these compounds in medicine and the intermediates involved in their preparation. The compounds of the general formula (I) have DprE1 enzyme inhibitory activity.
tuberculosis (TB) is one of the leading cause of human death from infectious disease in the world. About 33% of world's population is thought to be infected with Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the pathogen that causes TB disease (WHO “Global tuberculosis Report 2016”, World Health Organization, 2017). Current treatment has a potential to cure drug-sensitive TB, however treatment of drug-resistant or multi drug-resistant TB (MDR-TB) is challenging and needs a two years of combination chemotherapy (WHO “Multidrug-Resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) 2016 Update”, World Health Organization, 2016). Resistance to current treatment for MDR-TB and extensively resistant TB (XDR-TB) highlights the need of new drugs with novel mechanism of actions.
The enzyme DprE (decaprenylphosphoryl-β-D-ribose2′-epimerase) has received significant attention as a new therapeutic strategy to tackle Mtb infection. The enzyme is composed of two proteins encoded by the dprE1 and dprE2 genes. DprE1 enzyme is the FAD-containing oxidoreductase, while DprE2 is the NADH-dependent reductase, both acts as key enzymes in the biosynthesis of decaprenylphosphoryl-o-D-arabinofuranose (DPA). DPA is a precursor of mycobacterial cell wall arabinan (Wolucka B. A. et al. FEBS J. 275, 2691-2711 (2008)). Hence, inhibition of DprE1 enzyme provides a method to inhibit bacterial cell wall biosynthesis and provides a new mechanism to identify novel drugs to treat TB. Furthermore, DprE1 enzyme has expression only in bacteria and not in human which makes it safer antibacterial target.
DprE1 target is validated by the identification of BTZ-043, a covalent inhibitor of DprE1 enzyme (Trefzer, C. et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 132, 13663-13665, (2010)), which has demonstrated in vivo efficacy in mouse model of TB (Makarov et al. Science, 324, 801-804, (2009)). Next generation benzothiazinone derivative PBTZ-169 has shown improved antibacterial activity than BTZ-043 (Makarov et al. EMBO Mol. Med. 6, 372-383, (2014)). WO2015009525 describes azaindole derivatives for the treatment of Mycobacterium infection or tuberculosis. WO2016031255 describes heterocyclic compounds and their use for the treatment of tuberculosis. WO2017146246 describes piperidine derivatives having antibacterial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. WO2018055048 describes new series of benzothiazinone compounds for the treatment of mammalian infections.
As per WHO report (2018), 558000 people developed TB in year 2017 that was resistant to rifampicin, the most effective first line drug, and of these, 82% had multidrug-resistant TB (MDR-TB). 10% of MDR patients converted to XDR-TB (extensively drug-resistant TB). This highlights the importance of new anti-TB drugs with new mechanism of action such as DprE1 that can tackle the issue of MDR-TB.
Preclinical evaluation of TB treatment outcome occurs primarily in mouse models (The Journal of infectious diseases 211(Suppl 3), S83-95, 2015). Hence it is desirable that investigational compounds show good oral bioavailability and high blood exposure in mice. Compounds of the invention have shown excellent oral bioavailability and blood exposure in mice (Table 3) in addition to desired biological activity.

The compounds of the present invention are useful in the treatment of the human or animal body, by regulation of DprE1 enzyme. The compounds of this invention are therefore suitable for the treatment of tuberculosis or Mycobacterium infection.
