Description
CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application is based on and claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 201710734482.7, filed on Aug. 24, 2017, the content of which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.


TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention belongs to the field of medical chemistry, and provides herein deuterium-substituted quinoline derivatives, a preparation method thereof and use thereof.


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Receptor tyrosine kinases are a type of enzyme that span the cell membrane, with an extracellular binding region that binds to growth factors, a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular portion. The function of the intracellular portion is to act as a kinase to phosphorylate specific tyrosine residues in proteins and affect cell proliferation. Tyrosine kinases can be divided into growth factor receptors (e.g. EGFR, PDGFR, FGFR, and erbB2) or non-receptor kinases (e.g. c-src and bcr-abl). These kinases are abnormally expressed in human cancers and are associated with a variety of cancers.


WO2008112407 discloses 1-[[[4-(4-fluoro-2-methyl-1H-indol-5-yl)oxy-6-methoxyquinolin-7-yl]]oxy]methyl]cyclopropylamine of Formula A, which can be used as a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, and which is also known as anlotinib. In view of the importance of tyrosine kinases in physiological processes, there is a need to further develop other tyrosine kinase inhibitors, including derivatives or analogues of anlotinib.
