Serotonin was discovered in the late 1940s and is present in both the peripheral and central nervous systems [Physiol. Res, 60 (2011) 15-25; Psychopharmacology 213 (2011) 167-169]. Serotonin or 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) is a monoamine neurotransmitter of the indolalkylamine group that acts at synapses of nerve cells. Seven distinct families of serotonin receptors have been identified and at least 20 subpopulations have been cloned on the basis of sequence similarity, signal transduction coupling and pharmacological characteristics. The seven families of 5-HT receptor are named 5-HT1, 5-HT2, 5-HT3, 5-HT4, 5-HT5, 5-HT6, and 5-HT7 and each of these receptors in turn has subfamilies or subpopulations. The signal transduction mechanism for all seven families have been studied and it is known that activation of 5-HT1 and 5-HT5 receptors causes a decrease in intracellular cAMP whereas activation of 5-HT2, 5-HT3, 5-HT4, 5-HT6, and 5-HT7 results in an increase in intracellular IP3 and DAG. The 5-HT pathways in the brain are important targets for drug development in the area of CNS disorders. The neurotransmitter binds to its a G-protein coupled receptor and is involved in a wide variety of actions including cognition, mood, anxiety, attention, appetite, cardiovascular function, vasoconstriction, sleep (ACS Medicinal Chemistry Letters, 2011, 2, 929-932; Physiological Research, 2011, 60, 15-25), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and intestinal inflammation (WO 2012058769, Khan, W. I., et. al. Journal of Immunology, 2013, 190, 4795-4804), epilepsy, seizure disorders (Epilepsy Research (2007) 75, 39), drug addiction, and alcohol addiction (Hauser, S. R. et. al. Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2015, 8, 1-9) among others.

is, for the purposes of the present invention, considered a heteroaryl unit. When a fused ring unit contains heteroatoms in both a saturated and an aryl ring, the aryl ring will predominate and determine the type of category to which the ring is assigned. For example, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-[1,8]naphthyridine having the formula:
is, for the purposes of the present invention, considered a heteroaryl unit.
Whenever a term or either of their prefix roots appear in a name of a substituent the name is to be interpreted as including those limitations provided herein. For example, whenever the term “alkyl” or “aryl” or either of their prefix roots appear in a name of a substituent (e.g., arylalkyl, alkylamino) the name is to be interpreted as including those limitations given above for “alkyl” and “aryl.”
The term “substituted” is used throughout the specification. The term “substituted” is defined herein as a moiety, whether acyclic or cyclic, which has one or more hydrogen atoms replaced by a substituent or several (e.g., 1 to 10) substituents as defined herein below. The substituents are capable of replacing one or two hydrogen atoms of a single moiety at a time. In addition, these substituents can replace two hydrogen atoms on two adjacent carbons to form said substituent, new moiety or unit. For example, a substituted unit that requires a single hydrogen atom replacement includes halogen, hydroxyl, and the like. A two hydrogen atom replacement includes carbonyl, oximino, and the like. A two hydrogen atom replacement from adjacent carbon atoms includes epoxy, and the like. The term “substituted” is used throughout the present specification to indicate that a moiety can have one or more of the hydrogen atoms replaced by a substituent. When a moiety is described as “substituted” any number of the hydrogen atoms may be replaced. For example, difluoromethyl is a substituted C1 alkyl; trifluoromethyl is a substituted C1 alkyl; 4-hydroxyphenyl is a substituted aromatic ring; (N,N-dimethyl-5-amino)octanyl is a substituted C8 alkyl; 3-guanidinopropyl is a substituted C3 alkyl; and 2-carboxypyridinyl is a substituted heteroaryl.
The variable groups defined herein, e.g., alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkyl, alkoxy, aryloxy, aryl, heterocycle and heteroaryl groups defined herein, whether used alone or as part of another group, can be optionally substituted. Optionally substituted groups will be so indicated.
The following are non-limiting examples of substituents which can substitute for hydrogen atoms on a moiety: halogen (chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), fluorine (F) and iodine(I)), —CN, —NO2, oxo (═O), —OR15, —SR15, —N(R15)2, —NR15C(O)R15, —SO2R15, —SO2OR15, —SO2N(R15)2, —C(O)R15, —C(O)OR15, —C(O)N(R15)2, C1-6 alkyl, C1-6 haloalkyl, C1-6 alkoxy, C2-8 alkenyl, C2-8 alkynyl, C3-14 cycloalkyl, aryl, heterocycle, or heteroaryl, wherein each of the alkyl, haloalkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, alkoxy, cycloalkyl, aryl, heterocycle, and heteroaryl groups is optionally substituted with 1-10 (e.g., 1-6 or 1-4) groups selected independently from halogen, —CN, —NO2, oxo, and R15; wherein R15, at each occurrence, independently is hydrogen, —OR16, —SR16, —C(O)R16, —C(O)OR16, —C(O)N(R16)2, —SO2R16, —S(O)2OR16, —N(R16)2, —NR16C(O)R16, C1-6 alkyl, C1-6 haloalkyl, C2-8 alkenyl, C2-8 alkynyl, cycloalkyl (e.g., C3-6 cycloalkyl), aryl, heterocycle, or heteroaryl, or two R15 units taken together with the atom(s) to which they are bound form an optionally substituted carbocycle or heterocycle wherein said carbocycle or heterocycle has 3 to 7 ring atoms; wherein R16, at each occurrence, independently is hydrogen, C1-6 alkyl, C1-6 haloalkyl, C2-8 alkenyl, C2-8 alkynyl, cycloalkyl (e.g., C3-6 cycloalkyl), aryl, heterocycle, or heteroaryl, or two R16 units taken together with the atom(s) to which they are bound form an optionally substituted carbocycle or heterocycle wherein said carbocycle or heterocycle preferably has 3 to 7 ring atoms.
In some embodiments, the substituents are selected from
At various places in the present specification, substituents of compounds are disclosed in groups or in ranges. It is specifically intended that the description include each and every individual subcombination of the members of such groups and ranges. For example, the term “C1-6 alkyl” is specifically intended to individually disclose C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, C6, C1-C6, C1-C5, C1-C4, C1-C3, C1-C2, C2-C6, C2-C5, C2-C4, C2-C3, C3-C6, C3-C5, C3-C4, C4-C6, C4-C5, and C5-C6, alkyl.
For the purposes of the present invention the terms “compound,” “analog,” and “composition of matter” stand equally well for the 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 7 activity modulators described herein, including all enantiomeric forms, diastereomeric forms, salts, and the like, and the terms “compound,” “analog,” and “composition of matter” are used interchangeably throughout the present specification.
Compounds described herein can contain an asymmetric atom (also referred as a chiral center), and some of the compounds can contain one or more asymmetric atoms or centers, which can thus give rise to optical isomers (enantiomers) and diastereomers. The present teachings and compounds disclosed herein include such enantiomers and diastereomers, as well as the racemic and resolved, enantiomerically pure R and S stereoisomers, as well as other mixtures of the R and S stereoisomers and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. Optical isomers can be obtained in pure form by standard procedures known to those skilled in the art, which include, but are not limited to, diastereomeric salt formation, kinetic resolution, and asymmetric synthesis. The present teachings also encompass cis and trans isomers of compounds containing alkenyl moieties (e.g., alkenes and imines). It is also understood that the present teachings encompass all possible regioisomers, and mixtures thereof, which can be obtained in pure form by standard separation procedures known to those skilled in the art, and include, but are not limited to, column chromatography, thin-layer chromatography, and high-performance liquid chromatography.
Pharmaceutically acceptable salts of compounds of the present teachings, which can have an acidic moiety, can be formed using organic and inorganic bases. Both mono and polyanionic salts are contemplated, depending on the number of acidic hydrogens available for deprotonation. Suitable salts formed with bases include metal salts, such as alkali metal or alkaline earth metal salts, for example sodium, potassium, or magnesium salts; ammonia salts and organic amine salts, such as those formed with morpholine, thiomorpholine, piperidine, pyrrolidine, a mono-, di- or tri-lower alkylamine (e.g., ethyl-tert-butyl-, diethyl-, diisopropyl-, triethyl-, tributyl- or dimethylpropylamine), or a mono-, di-, or trihydroxy lower alkylamine (e.g., mono-, di- or triethanolamine). Specific non-limiting examples of inorganic bases include NaHCO3, Na2CO3, KHCO3, K2CO3, Cs2CO3, LiOH, NaOH, KOH, NaH2PO4, Na2HPO4, and Na3PO4. Internal salts also can be formed. Similarly, when a compound disclosed herein contains a basic moiety, salts can be formed using organic and inorganic acids. For example, salts can be formed from the following acids: acetic, propionic, lactic, benzenesulfonic, benzoic, camphorsulfonic, citric, tartaric, succinic, dichloroacetic, ethenesulfonic, formic, fumaric, gluconic, glutamic, hippuric, hydrobromic, hydrochloric, isethionic, lactic, maleic, malic, malonic, mandelic, methanesulfonic, mucic, napthalenesulfonic, nitric, oxalic, pamoic, pantothenic, phosphoric, phthalic, propionic, succinic, sulfuric, tartaric, toluenesulfonic, and camphorsulfonic as well as other known pharmaceutically acceptable acids.
When any variable occurs more than one time in any constituent or in any formula, its definition in each occurrence is independent of its definition at every other occurrence (e.g., in N(R9)2, each R9 may be the same or different than the other). Combinations of substituents and/or variables are permissible only if such combinations result in stable compounds.
The terms “treat” and “treating” and “treatment” as used herein, refer to partially or completely alleviating, inhibiting, ameliorating and/or relieving a condition from which a patient is suspected to suffer.
As used herein, “therapeutically effective” and “effective dose” refer to a substance or an amount that elicits a desirable biological activity or effect.
Except when noted, the terms “subject” or “patient” are used interchangeably and refer to mammals such as human patients and non-human primates, as well as experimental animals such as rabbits, rats, and mice, and other animals. Accordingly, the term “subject” or “patient” as used herein means any mammalian patient or subject to which the compounds of the invention can be administered. In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, to identify subject patients for treatment according to the methods of the invention, accepted screening methods are employed to determine risk factors associated with a targeted or suspected disease or condition or to determine the status of an existing disease or condition in a subject. These screening methods include, for example, conventional work-ups to determine risk factors that may be associated with the targeted or suspected disease or condition. These and other routine methods allow the clinician to select patients in need of therapy using the methods and compounds of the present invention.

Procedures
The following procedures can be utilized in evaluating and selecting compounds as 5-hydroxytryptamine receptor 7 activity modulators.
Radiolabel Binding Studies for Serotonin 5HT7 Receptors, Method 1:
A solution of the compound of the disclosure to be tested is prepared as a 1-mg/ml stock in Assay Buffer or DMSO according to its solubility. A similar stock of the reference compound chlorpromazine is also prepared as a positive control. Eleven dilutions (5× assay concentration) of the compound of the disclosure and chlorpromazine are prepared in the Assay Buffer by serial dilution to yield final corresponding assay concentrations ranging from 10 pM to 10 μM.
A stock concentration of 5 nM [3H]LSD (lysergic acid diethyl amide) is prepared in 50 mM Tris-HCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EDTA, pH 7.4 (Assay Buffer). Aliquots (50 μl) of radioligand are dispensed into the wells of a 96-well plate containing 100 μl of Assay Buffer. Duplicate 50-μl aliquots of the compound of the disclosure test and chlorpromazine positive control reference compound serial dilutions are added.
Membrane fractions of cells expressing recombinant 5HT7 receptors (50 μL) are dispensed into each well. The membranes are prepared from stably transfected cell lines expressing 5HT7 receptors cultured on 10-cm plates by harvesting PBS-rinsed monolayers, resuspending and lysing in chilled, hypotonic 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4, centrifuging at 20,000×g, decanting the supernatant and storing at −80° C.; the membrane preparations are resuspended in 3 ml of chilled Assay Buffer and homogenized by several passages through a 26 gauge needle before using in the assay.
The 250-μl reactions are incubated at room temperature for 1.5 hours, then harvested by rapid filtration onto 0.3% polyethyleneimine-treated, 96-well filter mats using a 96-well Filtermate harvester. Four rapid 500-μl washes are performed with chilled Assay Buffer to reduce non-specific binding. The filter mats are dried, then scintillant is added to the filters and the radioactivity retained on the filters is counted in a Microbeta scintillation counter.
Raw data (dpm) representing total radioligand binding (i.e., specific+non-specific binding) are plotted as a function of the logarithm of the molar concentration of the competitor (i.e., test or reference compound). Non-linear regression of the normalized (i.e., percent radioligand binding compared to that observed in the absence of test or reference compound) raw data is performed in Prism 4.0 (GraphPad Software) using the built-in three parameter logistic model describing ligand competition binding to radioligand-labeled sites:
y=bottom+[(top−bottom)/(1+10×−log IC50)]
where bottom equals the residual radioligand binding measured in the presence of 10 μM reference compound (i.e., non-specific binding) and top equals the total radioligand binding observed in the absence of competitor. The log IC50 (i.e., the log of the ligand concentration that reduces radioligand binding by 50%) is thus estimated from the data and used to obtain the Ki by applying the Cheng-Prusoff approximation:
Ki=IC
50/(1+[ligand]/KD)
where [ligand] equals the assay radioligand concentration and KD equals the affinity constant of the radioligand for the target receptor.
Compounds of the disclosure are also screened at a single concentration of 10 μM using the same method described for the Radiolabel Binding Studies for Serotonin 5HT7 receptors to determine the percent inhibition of [3H]LSD binding.
Radiolabel Binding Studies for Serotonin 5-HT7 Receptors, Method 2:
A solution of the compound of the disclosure to be tested is prepared as a 1-mg/ml stock in Assay Buffer or DMSO according to its solubility. A similar stock of the reference compound chlorpromazine is also prepared as a positive control. Eleven dilutions (5× assay concentration) of the compound of the disclosure and chlorpromazine are prepared in the Assay Buffer by serial dilution to yield final corresponding assay concentrations ranging from 10 pM to 10 μM.
A stock concentration of 5 nM [3H]-5-Hydroxytryptamine ([3H]-5HT) is prepared in 50 mM Tris-HCl, 10 mM MgCl2, 1 mM EDTA, pH 7.4 (Assay Buffer). Aliquots (50 μl) of radioligand are dispensed into the wells of a 96-well plate containing 100 al of Assay Buffer. Duplicate 50-μl aliquots of the compound of the disclosure test and chlorpromazine positive control reference compound serial dilutions are added.

Compounds of the disclosure are also screened at a single concentration of 10 μM using the same method described for the Radiolabel Binding Studies for Serotonin 5HT7 receptors to determine the percent inhibition of [3H]-5HT binding.
Results for representative compounds according to the present invention are listed in Table 11.
Functional Serotonin 5HT7 Assay, Method 1:
Cell lines stably expressing human 5HT7 receptors are seeded in 96-well, poly-L-lysine-coated plates 48 hours prior to the assay (40,000 cells per well) in Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) containing 5% dialyzed serum. Twenty hours prior to the assay, the medium is changed to serum-free DMEM. On the day of the assay, the DMEM is washed and replaced with 30 μl of assay buffer (1× Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate glucose buffer, 0.75 mM IBMX, pH 7.4). A 10-min pre-incubation is performed in a 37-degree centigrade, humidified incubator. Then, the cells are stimulated by addition of 30 μl of 2× dilutions of compounds of the disclosure or chlorpromazine (final concentrations ranging from 0.1 nM to 10 μM, each concentration assayed in triplicate). A positive control (100 μM forskolin) is also included. Accumulation of cAMP is allowed to continue for 15 min, after which the buffer is removed and the cells are lysed with Cell Lysis Buffer (CatchPoint cAMP Assay Kit, Molecular Devices). Next, the lysates are transferred to 96-well, glass-bottom plates coated with goat anti-rabbit IgG and adsorbed with rabbit anti-cAMP (Molecular Devices). Following a 5 minute incubation, horseradish peroxidase-cAMP conjugate is added (Molecular Devices) and a 2-hour incubation is performed at room temperature. Then, after three washes with Wash Buffer (Molecular Devices), Stoplight Red substrate (Molecular Devices), reconstituted in Substrate Buffer (Molecular Devices) containing freshly-added 1 mM H2O2, is added and, after a 15-min incubation at room temperature, fluorescence is measured (excitation 510-545 nm, emission 565-625 nm). For each assay, a cAMP calibration curve is generated and controls without lysate and without antibody are included.
For agonist tests, raw data (maximum fluorescence, fluorescence units) for each concentration of the compounds of the disclosure or chlorpromazine are normalized to the basal (vehicle-stimulated) fluorescence (reported as fold increase over basal) and plotted as a function of the logarithm of the molar concentration of the drug (i.e., test or reference compound). Non-linear regression of the normalized data is performed in Prism 4.0 (GraphPad Software) using the built-in three parameter logistic model (i.e., sigmoidal concentration-response) describing agonist-stimulated activation of one receptor population:
y=bottom+[(top−bottom)/(1+10×−log EC50)]
where bottom equals the best-fit basal fluorescence and top equals the best-fit maximal fluorescence stimulated by the compound of the disclosure or chlorpromazine. The log EC50 (i.e., the log of the drug concentration that increases fluorescence by 50% of the maximum fluorescence observed for the compound of the disclosure or chlorpromazine is thus estimated from the data, and the EC50 (agonist potency) is obtained. To obtain an estimate of the relative efficacy of the test compound (Rel. Emax), its best-fit top is compared to and expressed as a ratio of that for the chlorpromazine (Rel. Emax of the reference agonist is 1.00).
To ascertain whether compounds of the disclosure are antagonists, a double-addition paradigm is employed. First, 30 μl of a compound of the disclosure (20 μM) is added (10 μM final concentration) and a 15 minute incubation is performed. Then, 30 μl of chlorpromazine (3×; EC90) is added (final concentration of agonist is EC30) and cAMP accumulation is allowed to proceed for 15 minutes. The samples are then processed for cAMP measurements as detailed above. Measurements of chlorpromazine-induced cAMP accumulation are compared to the signals elicited by the chlorpromazine following addition of vehicle instead of test compound and expressed as a ratio. ‘Hits’ (compounds that antagonize chlorpromazine-stimulated increases in baseline-normalized fluorescence by at least 50%) are then characterized by a modified Schild analysis.
For modified Schild analysis, a family of chlorpromazine concentration-response isotherms is generated in the absence and presence of graded concentrations of test compound (added 15 min prior to reference agonist). Theoretically, compounds that are competitive antagonists cause a dextral shift of agonist concentration-response isotherms without reducing the maximum response to agonist (i.e., surmountable antagonism). However, on occasion, factors such as non-competitive antagonism, hemiequilibria, and/or receptor reserve cause apparent insurmountable antagonism. To account for such deviations, we apply the modified Lew-Angus method to ascertain antagonist potency (Christopoulos et al., 1999). Briefly, equieffective concentrations of agonist (concentrations of agonist that elicit a response equal to the EC25% of the agonist control curve) are plotted as a function of the compound of the disclosure concentration present in the wells in which they were measured. Non-linear regression of the baseline-normalized data is performed in Prism 4.0 using the following equation:
pEC25%=−log([B]+10−pK)−log c
where EC25% equals the concentration of agonist that elicits a response equal to 25% of the maximum agonist control curve response and [B] equals the antagonist concentration; K, c, and s are fit parameters. The parameter s is equal to the Schild slope factor. If s is not significantly different from unity, pK equals pKB; otherwise, pA2 is calculated (pA2=pK/s). The parameter c equals the ratio EC25%[B].
Functional Efficacy Assay for 5-HT7 Receptors Method 2:
Functional efficacy of the compounds of the disclosure on 5-HT7 serotonin receptors were measured in a cell based cAMP enzyme fragment complementation assay using the HitHunter cAMP assay (DiscoveRx). Cells stably expressing human 5HT7 receptors were plated in 96-well plates at 4000 cells/well, 16-20 hours prior to assay in growth media (Ultraculture medium, 2 mM GlutaMax and G418 1 mg/mL. Serial dilutions of the agonist, 5-Carboxamidotryptamine (5-CT), were prepared in a final concentration range of 10 μM to 10 nM. Compounds of the disclosure were prepared in 3-fold serial dilutions to obtain a final concentration range of 10 μM to 0.1 nM. Compounds of the disclosure are tested for agonist activity in the absence of 5-CT and antagonist activity in the presence of 5-CT. For the cAMP assay, the protocol was followed according to the instructions provided by the supplier. Briefly, cells were incubated with a compound of the disclosure for 30 minutes at 37° C. prior to addition of EC70 concentration of 5-CT. After an additional 30 minutes, cAMP antibody/cell lysis solution was added (20 μL/well) and incubated for 60 minutes at room temperature. cAMP XS+EA reagent is added (20 μL/well) and incubated for 2 hours at room temperature. Luminescence was read on the Envision Multilabel plate reader.
