Amino-substituted tricyclic derivatives and methods of use
View Patent ↗Compounds of formula (I) wherein A and B are amine-substituted sidechains, Y 1 and Y 2 form various tricyclic cores, X a and X b are C, CH, or N, as defined herein, and R x is an optional substituent. Compounds and compositions of formula (I) are contemplated as well as methods for treating conditions or disorders prevented by or ameliorated by α7nAChR ligands that encompass compounds of formula (I) and other tricyclic derivatives. Methods of using amino-substituted tricyclic derivatives also are described herein.
1. A compound of the formula (I):
or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, ester, or amide thereof, wherein:
A and B are each independently a group of formula (d):
X a is independently selected from the group consisting of C(A) and C(H); X b is independently selected from the group consisting of C(R x ), C(B), and C(H);
Y 1 is independently selected from the group consisting of —C(O)—, —CH 2 —, —CH(OH)—, —C(S)—;
Y 2 is independently selected from —O—,
R 4 at each occurrence is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and alkyl;
R 5 at each occurrence is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl, and alkoxycarbonyl;
R x is independently selected at each occurrence from the group consisting of halogen, alkoxy, amino, alkylamino, dialkylamino, acylamino, dialkylaminoalkyl, and cyano;
a is 0 or 1;
b is 0 or 1; provided that when one of a and b is 0, the other is 1;
q, r, s, t, and v are each independently selected from 0, 1, or 2.
2. The compound according to claim 1 , wherein the group of formula (d) is selected from the group consisting of:
wherein R 4 at each occurrence is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and alkyl, and enantiomers thereof.
3. The compound according to claim 1 , wherein a is 1, b is 1, and one of A or B is a group of formula (d) and the other is selected from the group consisting of bromo, hydroxy, amino, dialkylamino, acylamino, and —N(H)C(═O)(OCH 3 ).
4. The compound according to claim 1 , wherein one of a and b is 0 and the other is 1, and one of A or B is a group of formula (d).
5. The compound according to claim 1 , wherein the group of formula (d) is
wherein R 4 at each occurrence is independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and alkyl.
6. The compound according to claim 1 , selected from the group consisting of:
2-[(3R)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octan-3-yloxy]-xanthen-9-one;
2-(3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.0]octan-3-yl)-xanthen-9-one;
2-(7-methyl-3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.0]octan-3-yl)-xanthen-9-one;
2-amino-7-(3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.0]octan-3-yl)-xanthen-9-one;
2-amino-7-(7-methyl-3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.0]octan-3-yl)-xanthen-9-one;
2-(3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.0]octan-3-yl)-7-methylamino-xanthen-9-one;
2-methylamino-7-(7-methyl-3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.0]octan-3-yl)-xanthen-9-one;
2-(3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.0]octan-3-yl)-7-dimethylamino-xanthen-9-one;
2-dimethylamino-7-(7-methyl-3,7-diazabicyclo[3.3.0]octan-3-yl)-xanthen-9-one;
2-[(3S)-1-azabicyclo[2.2.2]octan-3-yloxy]-xanthen-9-one.
7. A pharmaceutical composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of claim 1 in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
