TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of medical chemistry, in particular to a ring-modified proline short peptide compound and a use thereof.


BACKGROUND

At present, there are seven kinds of coronaviruses that can infect humans, namely HCoV-229E, HCoV-OC43, HCoV-NL63, HCoV-HKU1, SARS-CoV (SARS), MERS-CoV (MERS) and COVID-19 which is first discovered in December 2019, and COVID-19 is changing from Alpha, Beta to Delta . . . and then to Omicron, and is still spreading rapidly and changing constantly. In 2022, human ushered in the third year of COVID-19 pandemic, with the cumulative number of confirmed cases exceeding 500 million and the cumulative number of deaths exceeding 6 million, and with the number of confirmed cases of COVID-19 exceeding 1 million in about 50 countries. The transmission mode of epidemiology, spreading trend and pandemic level far exceed those of H1N1 influenza A in 2009. SARS-CoV-2 is a single positive-strand RNA virus and has high homology with SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV. After the virus infects and enters the host cell, with the help of the host cell, the genetic material RNA first translates and expresses two polyprotein precursors (pp1a and pp1ab), and the polyprotein precursors undergo intramolecular cleavage under the action of 3CL protease and PL protease to produce multiple unstructured proteins. Because 3CL protease is responsible for the cleavage of at least 11 sites, the 3CL protease is also called main protease (Mpro). Unstructured proteins are involved in the production of virus subgene RNA and four structural proteins (E protein, M protein, S protein and N protein), thus completing the reproduction and release of virus offspring; 3CL protease belongs to cysteine protease, and the active form of 3CL protease is homodimer. 3CL protease is relatively conservative in coronavirus, and the substrates of 3CL protease from different coronaviruses have common characteristics. Because there is no protease homologous to 3CL protease in human body, 3CL protease has become one of the ideal targets against coronavirus.

Unless otherwise required in the present disclosure, throughout the specification and the following claims, the word “comprise” and variations thereof such as “comprises” and “comprising” should be interpreted in an open and inclusive sense, that is, “include, but not limited to”.


References throughout this specification to “in some embodiments” or “in an embodiment” or “in another embodiment” or “in certain embodiments” means that specific reference elements, structures or features related to the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment. Thus, appearances of the phrases “in some embodiments” or “in an embodiment” or “in another embodiment” or “in certain embodiments” in various places throughout the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment. Furthermore, specific elements, structures or features may be combined in one or more embodiments in any suitable manner.


Unless otherwise specified, the term “isomer” is intended to include geometric isomers, cis-trans isomers, stereoisomers, enantiomers, optical isomers, diastereomers and tautomers.


The compounds of the present disclosure may exist in specific geometric or stereoisomeric forms. The present disclosure contemplates all such compounds, including cis and trans isomers, (−)- and (+)-enantiomers, (R)- and (S)-enantiomers, diastereoisomers, (D)-isomers, (L)-isomers, and racemic and other mixtures thereof, such as enantiomers or diastereomeric enriched mixtures, all of which are within the scope of the present disclosure. Additional asymmetric carbon atoms may be present in substituents such as alkyl. All these isomers and their mixtures are included within the scope of the present disclosure.


Unless otherwise specified, the term “enantiomer” or “optical isomer” refers to stereoisomers that are mirror images of each other.


Unless otherwise specified, the term “cis-trans isomer” or “geometric isomer” is caused by the inability to rotate freely of double bonds or single bonds of ring-forming carbon atoms.


Unless otherwise specified, the term “diastereomer” refers to a stereoisomer in which a molecule has two or more chiral centers and the relationship between the molecules is not mirror images.


Unless otherwise specified, “(+)” refers to dextrorotation, “(−)” refers to levorotation, and or “(±)” refers to racemization.


Unless otherwise specified, the absolute configuration of a stereogenic center is represented by a wedged solid bond (custom-character) and a wedged dashed bond (custom-character), and the relative configuration of a stereogenic center is represented by a straight solid bond (custom-character) and a straight dashed bond (custom-character), a wave line (custom-character) is used to represent a wedged solid bond (custom-character) or a wedged dashed bond (custom-character), or the wave line (custom-character) is used to represent a straight solid bond (custom-character) or a straight dashed bond (custom-character).


The term “optional” or “optionally” means that the subsequent event or condition may occur but not requisite, that the term includes the instance in which the event or condition occurs and the instance in which the event or condition does not occur.


The term “substituted” means one or more than one hydrogen atom(s) on a specific atom are substituted with the substituent, including deuterium and hydrogen variables, as long as the valence of the specific atom is normal and the substituted compound is stable. When the substituent is an oxygen (i.e., ═O), it means two hydrogen atoms are substituted. Positions on an aromatic ring cannot be substituted with a ketone. The term “optionally substituted” means an atom can be substituted with a substituent or not, unless otherwise specified, the type and number of the substituent may be arbitrary as long as being chemically achievable.


When any variable (such as R) occurs in the constitution or structure of the compound more than once, the definition of the variable at each occurrence is independent. Thus, for example, if a group is substituted with 0-2 R, the group can be optionally substituted with up to two R, wherein the definition of R at each occurrence is independent. Moreover, a combination of the substituent and/or the variant thereof is allowed only when the combination results in a stable compound.


When the number of a linking group is 0, such as —(CRR)0-, it means that the linking group is a single bond.


When one of the variables is selected from a single bond, it means that the two groups linked by the single bond are connected directly. For example, when L in A-L-Z represents a single bond, the structure of A-L-Z is actually A-Z.


When a substituent is vacant, it means that the substituent does not exist, for example, when X is vacant in A-X, the structure of A-X is actually A. When the enumerative substituent does not indicate by which atom it is linked to the group to be substituted, such substituent can be bonded by any atom thereof. For example, when pyridyl acts as a substituent, it can be linked to the group to be substituted by any carbon atom on the pyridine ring.


When the enumerative linking group does not indicate the direction for linking, the direction for linking is arbitrary, for example, the linking group L contained in




embedded image


is -M-W-, then -M-W- can link ring A and ring B to form




embedded image


in the direction same as left-to-right reading order, and form




embedded image


in the direction contrary to left-to-right reading order. A combination of the linking groups, substituents and/or variables thereof is allowed only when such combination can result in a stable compound.


Unless otherwise specified, when a group has one or more linkable sites, any one or more sites of the group can be linked to other groups through chemical bonds. When the linking site of the chemical bond is not positioned, and there is H atom at the linkable site, then the number of H atom at the site will decrease correspondingly with the number of chemical bond linking thereto so as to meet the corresponding valence. The chemical bond between the site and other groups can be represented by a straight solid bond (custom-character), a straight dashed bond (custom-character) or a wavy line (custom-character). For example, the straight solid bond in —OCH3 means that it is linked to other groups through the oxygen atom in the group; the straight dashed bonds in




embedded image


means that it is linked to other groups through the two ends of nitrogen atom in the group; the wave lines in




embedded image

The molecular docking process was carried out by using GlideSP[1] in Maestro (Schrodinger version 2017-2) and the default options. The cocrystal structure with the PDB ID code of 6 WTT was selected as the docking template. For the preparation of protein, hydrogen atoms were added using the protein preparation wizard module of Maestro[2] and the OPLS3 force field was used. For the preparation of ligands, 3D structures were generated, and the energy minimization was performed by LigPrep[3]. A 30 A docking grid was generated using the ligand centroids from the 7BV2 crystal structure. The ligands were then removed and embodiment compounds were placed during molecular docking. The type of interaction between protein receptor and ligand was analyzed, and then the reasonable docking conformation was selected and saved according to the calculated docking score and globalStrain values. The simulation results of compounds 15-27 binding to 6WTT protein are shown in FIGS. 1 to 13.
