[0060] ##STR00010##
[0061] The solid phosgene (475 mg, 1.6 mmol) was dissolved in dichloromethane (10 mL), cooled to 0° C. in an ice-water bath, and a solution of (E)-4-{2-[(4-trifluoromethylphenyl)mesyl]ethenyl}benzene-1,2-diol (860 mg, 2.4 mmol) in dichloromethane (20 mL) was slowly dropwise added over 30 min. After stirring for 15 min, a solution of pyridine (0.40 mL, 5.0 mmol) in dichloromethane (5 mL) was slowly dropwise added over 15 min. In the process of the above dropwise addition, the temperature of the reaction solution should be controlled to be no higher than 5° C. After the dropwise addition was completed, the reaction solution was allowed to be naturally warmed to room temperature, and reacted under stirring for 2 h. The reaction solution was washed with pre-cooled water (25 mL×3 times), dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and then filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain Compound B1-1-a, as a yellowish oily liquid, which can be used in the next step without purification.

Example 5: Preparation of (E)-4-{2-[2-chloro-2-(4-chloro-3-nitrophenyl)ethylsulfonyl]ethenyl}-2-hydroxyphenyl-N-methylcarbamate (Compound E2-2)
Step 1. Preparation of (E)-4-{2-[2-chloro-2-(4-chloro-3-nitrophenyl)ethylsulfonyl]ethenyl}-2-hydroxyphenylchloroformate (Compound E2-2-a)
[0078] ##STR00015##
[0079] The solid phosgene (237 mg, 0.8 mmol) was dissolved in dichloromethane (10 mL), cooled to 0° C. in an ice-water bath, and a solution of (E)-4-{2-[2-chloro-2-(4-chloro-3-nitrophenyl)ethylsulfonyl]ethenyl}benzene-1,2-diol (1003 mg, 2.4 mmol) in dichloromethane (20 mL) was slowly dropwise added over 30 min. After stirring for 15 min, a solution of pyridine (0.20 mL, 2.5 mmol) in dichloromethane (5 mL) was slowly dropwise added over 15 min. In the process of the above dropwise addition, the temperature of the reaction solution should be controlled to be no higher than 5° C. After the dropwise addition was completed, the reaction solution was allowed to be naturally warmed to room temperature, and reacted under stirring for 2 h. The reaction solution was washed with pre-cooled water (25 mL×3 times), dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and then filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to obtain Compound E2-2-a, as a yellow oily liquid, which can be used in the next step without purification.
Step 2. Preparation of (E)-4-{2-[2-chloro-2-(4-chloro-3-nitrophenyl)ethylsulfonyl]ethenyl}-2-hydroxyphenyl-N-methylcarbamate (Compound E2-2)
[0080] ##STR00016##
[0081] Compound E2-2-a obtained in step 1 was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (5 mL), and added to a solution of methylamine (2 M solution in tetrahydrofuran, 1.25 mL, 2.5 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (10 mL) at 0-5° C. The reaction was slowly warmed to room temperature and stirred overnight. After the reaction was completed under TLC monitoring, 30 mL of water was added, and extracted with diethyl ether (25 mL×3 times). The organic phases were combined, successively washed with 0.01 mol/L aqueous hydrochloric acid solution, saturated sodium bicarbonate aqueous solution, and saturated sodium chloride aqueous solution (each 50 mL), dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and then filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (n-hexane/ethyl acetate system, v/v=15:2), to give a light yellow solid product, i.e., Compound E2-2 (403 mg, yield: 35% over two steps).

Example 23: Evaluation of the Inhibitory Activity of the Target Compounds on the Damage from Parkinson's Disease in Fetal Rat Midbrain Neurons (Using the Survival Rate of Primary Midbrain Neurons Induced by MPP+ as the Evaluation Indicator)
[0152] 1. Experiment Principle
[0153] The main pathological feature of Parkinson's disease (PD) lies in the degeneration and loss of dopaminergic neuron in the substantia nigra-striatum of the midbrain. 1-Methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+) has a high affinity to dopamine carriers and a selective toxicity on dopaminergic neurons. Thus, MPP+ is one of the most ideal classic neurotoxins for establishing PD cell models. The primary cell culture of fetal rat midbrain is often used to establish PD cell models in recent years. Although it is more cumbersome and has higher technical requirements than cell line culture, it is closer to the pathological characteristics of PD. Thus, a PD cell model is established using neurons from the primary cell culture of fetal rat midbrain under MPP+ induction, to evaluate the protective effect of target compounds on the model neurons.
[0154] 2. Experiment Method
[0155] The midbrain was separated from a fetal rat of a 15-day-pregnant SD rat and cut into pieces, then subjected to trypsin digestion, pipetting, screen filtration, and resuspension steps, and inoculated in a 24-well cell culture plate pre-coated with poly-D-lysine. 12 hours after culture, cytarabine was added to inhibit the growth of glial cells. On the 5.sup.th day of neuron growth, the toxin MPP+ can be added to make a PD cell model. When detecting the activity of a target compound, the target compound was pre-incubated with midbrain neurons for 3 h, then MPP+ was added, and after 48 h co-incubation the neuronal viability was detected by CCK-8 method and the neuronal survival rate was calculated to evaluate the inhibitory activity of the target compound on the midbrain neuronal PD damage. The experiment included blank control group, MPP+ model group, positive control group (caffeic acid phenethyl ester, CAPE), prototype control group (styryl sulfone compounds 3B, 3C, 3D, and 3G), and target compound group (prepared according to Examples 1-22 in the invention).
[0156] Among them, the prototype control group has a structure formula as follows:

compounds (B1-1, C1-1, D1-1, and G1-1) were compared with the prototype compounds of corresponding structures (i.e., styryl sulfones 3B, 3C, 3D, and 3G)
[0159] It can be seen that compared with the model group, all the compounds showed a statistically significant increase in the survival rate, demonstrating that these compounds have a definite protective effect on the primary midbrain neuron damage induced by MPP+. Compared with the positive control CAPE, most of the compounds had a relatively significant or significant increase in the survival rate, demonstrating that the protective effect on the primary midbrain neuron damage inducted by MPP+ of these compounds were stronger than that of the positive control CAPE. The survival rates of the four groups of compounds B1-1, C1-1, D1-1, and G1-1 were significantly increased compared with those of the styryl sulfone prototype compounds 3B, 3C, 3D), and 3G, demonstrating that compared with the prototype compounds without the introduction of carbamate functional group, the protective effect on the primary midbrain neuron damage induced by MPP+ of these compounds was significantly enhanced.
Example 24: Evaluation of the Inhibitory Activity of the Target Compounds on the Inflammatory Response in Glial Cells (Inhibition of the NO Release of Primary Glial Cells Induced by LPS, Using the NO Content in the Cell Culture Medium as the Evaluation Indicator)
[0160] 1. Experiment Principle
[0161] Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a main component of the cell wall of Gram-negative bacteria. It is a potent inflammatory factor that can directly activate gliocytes, and the activated gliocytes secrete a large amount of inflammation mediators such as tumor necrosis factor, interleukin, and nitric oxide, thus causing inflammatory reactions and oxidative stress reactions and eventually leading to neuronal denaturation and death. In recent years, the targeted injection of LPS into rat substantia nigra or striatum to induce neuroinflammation can successfully establish PD models, which can simulate most of the clinical manifestations and pathological features of PD, and are used for the study on the neuroinflammation mechanism associated with PD. LPS-induced primary glial cell PD inflammation model is suitable for the preliminary anti-neuroinflammation screening for neuroprotective agents. LPS is used to directly activate primary glial cells to simulate the pathogenesis mechanism of neuroinflammation, and the inhibitory activity of the target compounds on the inflammatory response of primary glial cells can be investigated.
[0162] 2. Experiment Method
[0163] The materials were taken from the brain tissue of fetal rat, for primary glial cell culture. At 7 to 10 days of the culture, LPS was added for the activation of nitric oxide (NO) release in glial cells. When a target compound was added, the reduction value for NO content in the cell culture medium was measured, to evaluate the anti-neuroinflammation activity of the compound. The experiment included blank control group, LPS model group, positive control group (caffeic acid phenethyl ester, CAPE), prototype control group (styryl sulfone compounds 3B, 3C, 3D, and 3G, the structures of which compounds are shown as above), and target compound group.
[0164] 3. Experiment Results

[0166] It can be seen that every concentration group for all the compounds had a certain NO inhibitory rate, demonstrating that these compounds have a definite inhibitory effect on the NO release of primary glial cells induced by LPS.

Example 25: Evaluation of the Neuroprotective Activity of the Target Compounds in the Parkinson's Disease Model Mouse (Using the Midbrain p-α-s as the Evaluation Indicator)
[0167] 1. Experiment Principle
[0168] Neurotoxins can be used to establish PD animal models. Currently, 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) is the sole synthetic toxin which is recognized to induce PD symptoms in human and non-human primates and in mice. Using MPTP subacute modeling method, C57BL/6J male mice were intraperitoneally injected with MPTP 30 mg/kg, once a day for 5 consecutive days. The experiment animals were divided into blank control group, MPTP model group, and compound treatment group. For the MPTP model group and compound treatment group, the compound was administrated by gavage for 21 consecutive days after the completion of modeling; for the MPTP model group, the normal saline was administrated by gavage for 21 consecutive days after the completion of modeling; and for the blank control group, the normal saline was first intraperitoneally injected for 5 days, and then administrated by gavage for 21 days.
[0169] Alpha-synuclein is an “unfolded protein” in its natural state. It exists in a monomeric form, and participates in the physiological functions such as the release of neurotransmitters, the establishment of synaptic junctions, and the regulation of synaptic plasticity. Under pathological conditions, more than 90% of alpha-synuclein is phosphorylated at serine of position 129 and converted into phosphorylated alpha-synuclein (p-α-s), thereby forming Lewy bodies. The formation of Lewy bodies is one of the main pathological manifestations and pathological mechanisms for Parkinson's disease, and plays an important role in the formation and development of PD. The detection of the p-α-s expression in the midbrain and substantia nigra of PD model mice can evaluate the neuroprotective activity of the compound.
[0170] 2. Experiment Method
[0171] Half of experiment mice in each group were taken to extract the total midbrain protein, and the change in the midbrain P-α-s protein expression was determined by western-blotting using GAPDH as the internal reference. The experiment included blank control group, MPTP model group, positive control group (caffeic acid phenethyl ester, CAPE), prototype control group (styryl sulfone compounds 3B, 3C, 3D, and 3G, whose structures are shown as above), and target compound group.

Compared with the positive control CAPE, all the compounds were equivalent in terms of the p-α-s protein expression or had a relatively significant or significant decrease in terms of the p-α-s protein expression, demonstrating that the inhibitory effect of these compounds on the increase of midbrain p-α-s protein expression in the Parkinson's disease model mouse were comparable to or even stronger than that of the positive control CAPE. The expressions of the four groups of compounds B1-1, C1-1, D1-1, and G1-1 were equivalent or significantly lower compared with those of the styryl sulfone prototype compounds 3B, 3C, 3D, and 3G, demonstrating that compared with the prototype compounds without the introduction of carbamate functional group, the inhibitory effect of these compounds on the increase of midbrain p-α-s protein expression in the Parkinson's disease model was significantly enhanced.

Example 27: Evaluation of the Neuroprotective Activity of the Target Compounds in the Parkinson's Disease Model Mouse (Using the Midbrain TH as the Evaluation Indicator)
[0182] 1. Experiment Principle
[0183] The principle and establishment method of PD model mice are identical to those of Example 25.
[0184] The main cause of PD lies in the pathological changes in the substantia nigra-striatum projection system of the brain and the progressive degeneration and loss of dopaminergic neurons. Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) is the first enzyme in the biosynthesis of catecholamine neurotransmitters, as well as the first rate-limiting enzyme in the dopamine synthesis. It plays an important role in the synthesis and metabolism of the neurotransmitter DA. The TH in PD animal models and patients has a wide range of abnormal changes, from the gene expression to the enzyme protein content and enzyme activity. The detection of the TH expression in the midbrain and substantia nigra of PD model mice can be used to evaluate the neuroprotective activity of the compound.
[0185] 2. Experiment Method
[0186] Half of experiment mice in each group were taken to extract the total midbrain protein, and the change in the midbrain TH was determined by western-blotting using GAPDH as the internal reference. The experiment included blank control group, MPTP model group, positive control group (caffeic acid phenethyl ester, CAPE), prototype control group (styryl sulfone compounds 3B, 3C, 3D, and 3G, whose structures are shown as above), and target compound group.

Example 29: Study on the Neuroprotection Mechanism of the Target Compounds in the Parkinson's Disease Model Mouse (i.e., the Inhibitory Effect on the Activation of p38 MAPK Phosphorylation, Using Midbrain Pp38 as the Evaluation Indicator)
[0197] 1. Experiment Principle
[0198] The p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) is expressed in both neurons and glial cells, and is the intersection point of neuron-glial cell network information regulations. The activation of p38 signaling pathway is an important initiator of neuronal degeneration, which continuously induces the apoptosis of dopaminergic neurons in multiple ways. It has become a research hotspot for the treatment of PD. Studies have shown that the protective mechanism of CAPE against the death of primary cultured cerebellar granule neurons induced by glutamate lies in inhibiting the activation of p38 phosphorylation and in turn inhibiting the activation of the caspase 3 apoptotic pathway to prevent neuronal apoptosis. Therefore, the MPTP-induced PD mouse model can be used to investigate the inhibitory effect of the target compounds on the activation of p38 phosphorylation on the overall animal level.
[0199] 2. Experiment Method
[0200] Half of experiment mice in each group were taken to extract the total midbrain protein, and the change in the midbrain phosphorylated p38 protein expression was determined by western-blotting using GAPDH as the internal reference. The experiment included blank control group, MPTP model group, positive control group (caffeic acid phenethyl ester, CAPE), prototype control group (styryl sulfone compounds 3B, 3C, 3D, and 3G, whose structures are shown as above), and target compound group.

Example 31: Study on the Neuroprotection Mechanism of the Target Compounds in the Parkinson's Disease Model Mouse (i.e., the Inhibitory Effect on the Glial Cell Activation, Using Midbrain CD11b as the Evaluation Indicator)
[0211] 1. Experiment Principle
[0212] More and more evidences show that the glial cells play an important role in supporting the neuron development and maintaining the immune homeostasis of the central nervous system. Neuron-glial cell network homeostasis disorder is an important factor for the selective and progressive death of substantia nigra dopaminergic neurons in PD. In the neurotoxic effect of MPTP, the excessive activations of microglial cells and astrocytes produce a variety of inflammatory cytokines and reactive oxygen species (ROS). These inflammatory factors and ROS amplify their respective toxicities and mediate malignant feedback loop, causing a cascade inflammation response and aggravating the pathological process of PD. CD11b and GFAP are the marker proteins for activations of microglial cells and astrocytes, respectively. Therefore, the effect of the target compounds on the activations of the microglial cells and astrocytes in the substantia nigra, hippocampus, and midbrain areas of MPTP-induced PD mice can be investigated, to explore the mechanism of the anti-PD effect of the target compounds by inhibiting the neuroinflammation.

Example 36: Study on the Neuroprotection Mechanism of the Target Compounds in the Parkinson's Disease Model Mouse (i.e., the Inhibitory Effect on the Oxidative Stress Damage, Using HO-1 as the Evaluation Indicator)
[0246] 1. Experiment Principle
[0247] Oxidative stress is an important pathogenic mechanism of PD. Dopaminergic neurons are more sensitive to oxidative stress and are more susceptible to oxidative stress damage. Heme oxygenase (HO-1), a phase II enzyme, is also a well-known antioxidase. It plays an important protective role by catalyzing the conversion of free radicals into non-toxic products and increasing their water solubility to facilitate the elimination of free radicals, and maintain the redox balance in the body. It plays an important role in the process of protecting cells against oxidative stress damage. The activation of p38 protein phosphorylation has a negative regulatory effect on phase II enzymes. Studies have found that in PD mouse models and cell models, the expression of NADPH oxidase is down-regulated by inhibiting the activation of p38, which can up-regulate the expression of HO-1 and resist oxidative damage. Using HO-1 as an indicator, the inhibitory effect of the target compounds on MPTP-induced oxidative stress damage in PD mice can be investigated.
[0248] 2. Experiment Method
[0249] HO-1 is expressed in astrocytes, microglial cells, and neurons. The total proteins of the midbrain tissue of mice in each experiment group were extracted, to determine the expression of phase II enzyme HO-1 in the midbrain of mice by western blot using GAPDH as the internal reference. The experiment included blank control group, MPTP model group, positive control group (caffeic acid phenethyl ester, CAPE), prototype control group (styryl sulfone compounds 3B, 3C, 3D, and 3G, whose structures are shown as above), and target compound group.

Example 37: Study on the Neuroprotection Mechanism of the Target Compounds in the Parkinson's Disease Model Mouse (i.e., the Inhibitory Effect on the Oxidative Stress Damage, Using GCLC as the Evaluation Indicator)
[0253] 1. Experiment Principle
[0254] Oxidative stress is an important pathogenic mechanism of PD. Dopaminergic neurons are more sensitive to oxidative stress and are more susceptible to oxidative stress damage. Glutathione (GSH) is an important antioxidant substance in the cell, and glutamate cysteine ligase (GCL) is the rate-limiting enzyme for GSH synthesis, which is composed of catalytic subunit (GCLC) and regulatory subunit (GCLM). The increase of GCLC expression can promote the synthesis of GSH and enhance the ability of tissue cells against oxidative stress. GCL, a phase II enzyme, plays an important protective role by catalyzing the conversion of free radicals into non-toxic products and increasing their water solubility to facilitate the elimination of free radicals, and maintain the redox balance in the body. It plays an important role in the process of protecting cells against oxidative stress damage. The activation of p38 protein phosphorylation has a negative regulatory effect on phase II enzymes. Studies have found that in PD mouse models and cell models, the expression of NADPH oxidase is down-regulated by inhibiting the activation of p38, which can up-regulate the expression of GCLC and resist oxidative damage. Using GCLC as an indicator, the inhibitory effect of the target compounds on MPTP-induced oxidative stress damage in PD mice can be investigated.
[0255] 2. Experiment Method
[0256] GCLC is expressed in astrocytes, microglial cells, and neurons. The total proteins of the midbrain tissue of mice in each experiment group were extracted, to determine the expression of phase II enzyme GCLC in the midbrain of mice by western blot using GAPDH as the internal reference. The experiment included blank control group, MPTP model group, positive control group (caffeic acid phenethyl ester, CAPE), prototype control group (styryl sulfone compounds 3B, 3C, 3D), and 3G, whose structures are shown as above), and target compound group.

[0259] It can be seen that compared with the model group, all the compounds showed a statistically significant increase in terms of the GCLC expression, demonstrating that these compounds have a definite up-regulation effect on the midbrain GCLC expression in the Parkinson's disease model mouse, and were beneficial for the resistance of oxidative damage. Compared with the positive control CAPE, all the compounds had a relatively significant or significant increase in the GCLC expression, demonstrating that the up-regulation effects of these compounds on the midbrain GCLC expression in the Parkinson's disease model mouse were stronger than that of the positive control CAPE, and have better resistance against oxidative damage. The expressions of the four groups of compounds B1-1, C1-1, D1-1, and G1-1 were significantly higher compared with those of the styryl sulfone prototype compounds 3B, 3C, 3D), and 3G, demonstrating that compared with the prototype compounds without the introduction of carbamate functional group, the up-regulation effects of these compounds on the midbrain GCLC expression in the Parkinson's disease model was significantly enhanced.
Example 38: Evaluation of the Inhibitory Activity of the Target Compounds on Cholinesterase (Using IC50 Value of Acetylcholinesterase as the Evaluation Indicator)
[0260] 1. Experiment Principle
[0261] The central cholinergic system is an important part of the central nervous system. Acetylcholine (ACh) and butyrylcholine (BCh) are important neurotransmitters synthesized and secreted by central cholinergic neurons, which specifically act on various types of cholinergic receptors and play an important role in regulating synaptic plasticity and learning and memory functions. Therefore, the dysfunction of metabolic function such as neurotransmitter synthesis, release, and uptake or the destroying of cholinergic receptors and post-receptor signaling can lead to the hypofunction of the learning and memory function. Studies have shown that the activity of choline transferase decreases in the cortex such as frontal lobe, temporal lobe, parietal lobe, and right hippocampus of PD patient, and cholinergic neuron damage may be the main biochemical mechanism of PD cognitive dysfunction and dementia. By evaluating the inhibitory activities of the target compounds on the two cholinesterases, their potential therapeutic effect on PD cognitive dysfunction and dementia can be evaluated.
[0262] 2. Experiment Method
[0263] The modified Ellman method was used to determine the inhibitory activity on acetylcholinesterase. The principle lies in that acetylthiocholine iodide is decomposed under the action of acetylcholinesterase (AchE) to generate thiocholine. The thiocholine is quickly reacted with DTNB as the colour-developing agent to generate a yellow substance with light absorption at 405 nm. To a 96-well microplate, 50 μl of enzyme reaction buffer, 125 μl of DTNB (3 mM), 25 μl of test sample or positive control drug, and 25 μl of AchE (0.2 U/ml) were successively added. After incubation at room temperature for 5 min, 25 μl of ATCI (15 mM) was added. After incubation at room temperature for 8 min, the absorbance value was determined at 405 nm with a microplate reader. A blank control group without enzyme (25 μl PBS instead of the sample to be tested) was also established. The inhibition percentage was calculated based on the measurement results, using the negative logarithm of the molar concentration of the corresponding compound as the abscissa and the enzyme inhibition rate as the ordinate to obtain a linear equation. When the inhibition rate is 50%, the molar concentration of the compound, i.e., the IC.sub.50 value of the compound, was calculated. The experiment included blank control group, CAPE control group, prototype control group (styryl sulfone compounds 3B, 3C, 3D, and 3G, whose structures are shown as above), positive drug control group (Rivastigmine), and target compound group.
[0264] 3. Experiment Results
[0265] The inhibitory effect of each group on the acetylcholinesterase is shown in the table below:
TABLE-US-00016 Group IC.sub.50 (μM) CAPE control group >100 Prototype control group 3B >100 Prototype control group 3C >100 Prototype control group 3D >100 Prototype control group 3G >100 Positive drug control group 53.38 ± 3.14 Group B1-1 13.34 ± 2.85 Group C1-1 14.66 ± 3.51 Group D1-1 4.16 ± 1.07 Group G1-1 10.76 ± 2.13 Group E2-2 51.28 ± 3.94 Group K3-3 38.26 ± 2.79 Group K1-4 16.89 ± 1.22 Group P1-7 21.38 ± 2.07 Group H2-4 11.25 ± 1.34 Group M1-3 17.56 ± 2.19 Group L1-4 9.48 ± 1.34 Group K1-3 22.31 ± 3.17 Group J1-4 8.54 ± 1.65 Group A1-3 25.16 ± 3.34 Group M1-1 6.60 ± 0.71 Group P1-3 14.39 ± 2.04 Group M1-5 31.27 ± 4.63 Group R1-5 27.51 ± 3.49 Group D5-4 20.77 ± 3.12 Group S1-6 13.64 ± 2.16 Group S6-6 15.56 ± 3.07 Group P1-1 11.27 ± 1.48
[0266] It can be seen that all the compounds have IC.sub.50 values of less than 100 μM, demonstrating that these compounds have a definite inhibitory effect on acetylcholinesterase; while the IC.sub.50 values in the CAPE control group and prototype control group were both greater than 100 μM, demonstrating that these compounds do not have a definite inhibitory effect. The inhibitory effect of the designed compound on acetylcholinesterase is derived from the newly introduced carbamate functional group. Compared with the positive control drug group, all the compounds have lower IC.sub.50 values, demonstrating that the inhibitory effect of these compounds on acetylcholinesterase is stronger than that of the positive control drug.
