Abstract

Provided, in part, are compounds of Formula I: pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, and pharmaceutical compositions thereof, which are useful in the treatment of conditions associated with the activity of sodium channels. Methods of treating a disease or condition relating to aberrant function of a sodium ion channel including neurological disorders (e.g., Dravet syndrome, epilepsy), pain, and neuromuscular disorders are also provided herein.

Claims (59)

1. A compound of Formula (I):

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof,

wherein:

(i) X 1 is N; and

X 2 is CR d ; or

(ii) X 1 is CR d ; and

X 2 is N;

R 1 is CR 2 R 3 R 4 , C 3-6 cycloalkyl, or 4- to 7-membered heterocyclyl, wherein the C 3-6 cycloalkyl and 4- to 7-membered heterocyclyl are each monocyclic and optionally substituted with one or more independently selected R a substituents;

R 2 is C 1-4 haloalkyl or C 3-6 cycloalkyl, wherein the C 3-6 cycloalkyl is monocyclic and optionally substituted with one or more independently selected R 5 substituents;

R 3 is hydrogen, C 1-4 alkyl, or C 1-4 haloalkyl;

R 4 is hydrogen, C 1-4 alkyl, or C 1-4 haloalkyl;

R 5 is halo;

R 6 is C 1-4 haloalkyl or C 3-6 cycloalkyl, wherein the C 3-6 cycloalkyl is monocyclic and optionally substituted with one or more independently selected R c substituents;

each R a is independently halo, C 1-4 alkyl, C 1-4 haloalkyl, OC 1-4 alkyl, or OC 1-4 haloalkyl;

each R b is independently halo, C 1-4 alkyl, C 1-4 haloalkyl, OC 1-4 alkyl, or OC 1-4 haloalkyl;

each R c is independently halo, C 1-4 alkyl, C 1-4 haloalkyl, OC 1-4 alkyl, or OC 1-4 haloalkyl;

R d is hydrogen, halo, or C 1-4 alkyl; and

t is 0, 1, or 2;

with the provisos that:

(1) when R 3 and R 4 are each hydrogen, then R 6 is not chlorodifluoromethyl, cyclopropyl, fluorocyclopropyl, difluorocyclopropyl, or difluorocyclobutyl;

(2) when R 6 is difluoromethyl or trifluoromethyl, then R 1 is not difluorocyclobutyl;

(3) when R 6 is difluoromethyl or trifluoromethyl and R 3 and R 4 are each hydrogen, then R 2 is not trifluoromethyl;

(4) when R 6 is difluoromethyl or trifluoromethyl, one of R 3 or R 4 is hydrogen, X 1 is N, and X 2 is CH, then R 2 is not trifluoromethyl; and

(5) when R 6 is trifluoromethyl, one of R 3 or R 4 is hydrogen, X 1 is CH, and X 2 is N, then R 2 is not trifluoromethyl.

2. The compound of claim 1 , wherein the compound is of Formula (II) or Formula (III):

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof.

3. The compound of claim 1 , wherein the compound is of Formula (IV) or Formula (V):

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof.

4. The compound of claim 1 , wherein the compound is of Formula (VI) or Formula (VII):

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof.

5. The compound of claim 1 , wherein the compound is of Formula (VIII) or Formula (IX):

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof.

6. The compound of claim 1 , wherein the compound is of Formula (X) or Formula (XI):

or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof.

7. The compound of claim 1 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof, wherein R 1 is CR 2 R 3 R 4 .

8. The compound of claim 7 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof, wherein R 2 is C 1-4 haloalkyl or cyclopropyl, wherein the cyclopropyl is optionally substituted with one or more independently selected R b substituents.

9. The compound of claim 7 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof, wherein:

R 3 is C 1-4 alkyl; and

R 4 is hydrogen or C 1-4 alkyl.

10. The compound of claim 7 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof, wherein:

R 3 is hydrogen; and

R 4 is hydrogen.

11. The compound of claim 1 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof, wherein R 1 is cyclobutyl or oxetanyl, wherein the cyclobutyl or oxetanyl is optionally substituted with one or more independently selected R a substituents.

12. The compound of claim 1 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof, wherein R 6 is C 1-4 haloalkyl, cyclopropyl, or cyclobutyl, wherein the cyclopropyl or cyclobutyl is optionally substituted with one or more independently selected R c substituents.

13. The compound of claim 1 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof, wherein each R a is independently halo or C 1-4 haloalkyl.

14. The compound of claim 1 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof, wherein each R b is independently halo.

15. The compound of claim 1 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof, wherein each R c is independently halo.

16. The compound of claim 1 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof, wherein R d is hydrogen, chloro, or methyl.

17. A pharmaceutical composition comprising the compound of claim 1 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

18. A method for modulating a voltage gated sodium ion channel in a subject in need thereof, wherein the method comprises administering to the subject a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of claim 1 , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or stereoisomer thereof.

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein the subject has a gastrointestinal disorder, a neurological disorder, a psychiatric disorder, or pain.

20. The method of claim 18 , wherein the subject has epilepsy, an epilepsy syndrome, epileptic encephalopathy, a neurodevelopment disorder, a neuromuscular disorder, or Rasmussen's encephalitis.
