DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Definitions
[0035] Definitions of specific functional groups and chemical terms are described in more detail below. The chemical elements are identified in accordance with the Periodic Table of the Elements, CAS version, Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 75.sup.th Ed., inside cover, and specific functional groups are generally defined as described therein. Additionally, general principles of organic chemistry, as well as specific functional moieties and reactivity, are described in Organic Chemistry, Thomas Sorrell, University Science Books, Sausalito, 1999; Smith and March, March's Advanced Organic Chemistry, 5.sup.th Edition, John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, 2001; Larock, Comprehensive Organic Transformations, VCH Publishers, Inc., New York, 1989; and Carruthers, Some Modern Methods of Organic Synthesis, 3.sup.rd Edition, Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 1987.
[0036] Compounds described herein can comprise one or more asymmetric centers, and thus can exist in various stereoisomeric forms, e.g., enantiomers and/or diastereomers. For example, the compounds described herein can be in the form of an individual enantiomer, diastereomer or geometric isomer, or can be in the form of a mixture of stereoisomers, including racemic mixtures and mixtures enriched in one or more stereoisomer. Isomers can be isolated from mixtures by methods known to those skilled in the art, including chiral high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) and the formation and crystallization of chiral salts; or preferred isomers can be prepared by asymmetric syntheses. See, for example, Jacques et al., Enantiomers, Racemates and Resolutions (Wiley Interscience, New York, 1981); Wilen et al., Tetrahedron 33:2725 (1977); Eliel, E. L., Stereochemistry of Carbon Compounds (McGraw-Hill, N Y, 1962); and Wilen, S. H., Tables of Resolving Agents and Optical Resolutions p. 268 (E. L. Eliel, Ed., Univ. of Notre Dame Press, Notre Dame, Ind. 1972). The invention additionally encompasses compounds as individual isomers substantially free of other isomers, and alternatively, as mixtures of various isomers.
[0037] In a formula, is a single bond where the stereochemistry of the moieties immediately attached thereto is not specified,
is absent or a single bond, and
or
is a single or double bond.
[0038] Unless otherwise provided, formulae and structures depicted herein include compounds that do not include isotopically enriched atoms, and also include compounds that include isotopically enriched atoms. For example, compounds having the present structures except for the replacement of hydrogen by deuterium or tritium, replacement of .sup.19F with .sup.18F, or the replacement of a carbon by a .sup.13C- or .sup.14C-enriched carbon are within the scope of the disclosure.

[0055] The term “unsaturated bond” refers to a double or triple bond.
[0056] The term “unsaturated” or “partially unsaturated” refers to a moiety that includes at least one double or triple bond.
[0057] The term “saturated” or “fully saturated” refers to a moiety that does not contain a double or triple bond, e.g., the moiety only contains single bonds.
[0058] Affixing the suffix “-ene” to a group indicates the group is a divalent moiety, e.g., alkylene is the divalent moiety of alkyl, alkenylene is the divalent moiety of alkenyl, alkynylene is the divalent moiety of alkynyl, heteroalkylene is the divalent moiety of heteroalkyl, heteroalkenylene is the divalent moiety of heteroalkenyl, heteroalkynylene is the divalent moiety of heteroalkynyl, carbocyclylene is the divalent moiety of carbocyclyl, heterocyclylene is the divalent moiety of heterocyclyl, arylene is the divalent moiety of aryl, and heteroarylene is the divalent moiety of heteroaryl.
[0059] In general, the term “substituted” means that at least one hydrogen present on a group is replaced with a permissible substituent, e.g., a substituent which upon substitution results in a stable compound, e.g., a compound which does not spontaneously undergo transformation such as by rearrangement, cyclization, elimination, or other reaction. Unless otherwise indicated, a “substituted” group has a substituent at one or more substitutable positions of the group, and when more than one position in any given structure is substituted, the substituent is either the same or different at each position. The term “substituted” is contemplated to include substitution with all permissible substituents of organic compounds, and includes any of the substituents described herein that results in the formation of a stable compound. The present invention contemplates any and all such combinations in order to arrive at a stable compound. For purposes of this invention, heteroatoms such as nitrogen may have hydrogen substituents and/or any suitable substituent as described herein which satisfy the valencies of the heteroatoms and results in the formation of a stable moiety. The invention is not limited in any manner by the exemplary substituents described herein.

An anionic counterion may be monovalent (e.g., including one formal negative charge). An anionic counterion may also be multivalent (e.g., including more than one formal negative charge), such as divalent or trivalent.

[0079] Various conditions for effecting polymerization (e.g., free radical polymerization) are known in the art. Polymerization can be effected, for example, actinically (i.e., by use of an irradiation with UV or a visible light), or thermally (i.e., by heating) in the presence of a free-radical initiator.
[0080] The term “transition metal” refers to elements that are in the d-block and f-block of the Periodic Chart of the Elements, which may exhibit a variety of oxidation states, and which may form numerous complex ions. The term “d-block” refers to those elements that have electrons filling the 3d, 4d, 5d, and 6d orbitals, and the term “f-block” refers to those elements (including lanthanides and the actinides) that have electrons filling the 4f and 5f orbitals. Exemplary transition metals include palladium, nickel, cobalt, copper, platinum, silver, manganese, zinc, iridium, rhodium, iron, and ruthenium. The term “transition metal” also includes alloys, metal/metal composites, metal ceramic composites, and metal polymer composites, as well as other metal composites.
[0081] As used herein, the term “salt” refers to any and all salts. Salts include ionic compounds that result from the neutralization reaction of an acid and a base. A salt is composed of one or more cations (positively charged ions) and one or more anions (negative ions) so that the salt is electrically neutral (without a net charge). Salts of the compounds of this invention include those derived from inorganic and organic acids and bases. Examples of acid addition salts are salts of an amino group formed with inorganic acids, such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, phosphoric acid, sulfuric acid, and perchloric acid, or with organic acids, such as acetic acid, oxalic acid, maleic acid, tartaric acid, citric acid, succinic acid, or malonic acid or by using other methods known in the art such as ion exchange. Other salts include adipate, alginate, ascorbate, aspartate, benzenesulfonate, benzoate, bisulfate, borate, butyrate, camphorate, camphorsulfonate, citrate, cyclopentanepropionate, digluconate, dodecylsulfate, ethanesulfonate, formate, fumarate, glucoheptonate, glycerophosphate, gluconate, hemisulfate, heptanoate, hexanoate, hydroiodide, 2-hydroxy-ethanesulfonate, lactobionate, lactate, laurate, lauryl sulfate, malate, maleate, malonate, methanesulfonate, 2-naphthalenesulfonate, nicotinate, nitrate, oleate, oxalate, palmitate, pamoate, pectinate, persulfate, 3-phenylpropionate, phosphate, picrate, pivalate, propionate, stearate, succinate, sulfate, tartrate, thiocyanate, p-toluenesulfonate, undecanoate, valerate, hippurate, and the like. Salts derived from appropriate bases include alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, ammonium and N+(C.sub.1-4 alkyl).sub.4 salts.

Further salts include ammonium, quaternary ammonium, and amine cations formed using counterions such as halide, hydroxide, carboxylate, sulfate, phosphate, nitrate, lower alkyl sulfonate, and aryl sulfonate.
[0082] The term “tautomers” or “tautomeric” refers to two or more interconvertible compounds resulting from at least one formal migration of a hydrogen atom and at least one change in valency (e.g., a single bond to a double bond, a triple bond to a single bond, or vice versa). The exact ratio of the tautomers depends on several factors, including temperature, solvent, and pH. Tautomerizations (i.e., the reaction providing a tautomeric pair) may catalyzed by acid or base. Exemplary tautomerizations include keto-to-enol, amide-to-imide, lactam-to-lactim, enamine-to-imine, and enamine-to-(a different enamine) tautomerizations.
[0083] It is also to be understood that compounds that have the same molecular formula but differ in the nature or sequence of bonding of their atoms or the arrangement of their atoms in space are termed “isomers”. Isomers that differ in the arrangement of their atoms in space are termed “stereoisomers”.
[0084] Stereoisomers that are not mirror images of one another are termed “diastereomers” and those that are non-superimposable mirror images of each other are termed “enantiomers”. When a compound has an asymmetric center, for example, it is bonded to four different groups, a pair of enantiomers is possible. An enantiomer can be characterized by the absolute configuration of its asymmetric center and is described by the R- and S-sequencing rules of Cahn, Ingold, Prelog, or by the manner in which the molecule rotates the plane of polarized light and designated as dextrorotatory or levorotatory (i.e., as (+) or (−)-isomers respectively). A chiral compound can exist as either individual enantiomer or as a mixture thereof. A mixture containing equal proportions of the enantiomers is called a “racemic mixture”.
[0085] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. In case of conflict, the present document, including definitions, will control. Preferred methods and materials are described below, although methods and materials similar or equivalent to those described herein can be used in practice or testing of embodiments of the present disclosure. The materials, methods, and examples disclosed herein are illustrative only and not intended to be limiting.
[0086] The term “about X,” where X is a number or percentage, refers to a number or percentage that is between 99.5% and 100.5%, between 99% and 101%, between 98% and 102%, between 97% and 103%, between 96% and 104%, between 95% and 105%, between 92% and 108%, or between 90% and 110%, inclusive, of X.
[0087] The terms “first,” “second,” “third,” and the like, as used herein, do not denote any order, quantity, or importance, but rather are used to distinguish one element from another.
[0088] Use of the phrase “at least one instance” refers to 1, 2, 3, 4, or more instances, but also encompasses a range, e.g., for example, from 1 to 4, from 1 to 3, from 1 to 2, from 2 to 4, from 2 to 3, or from 3 to 4 instances, inclusive.
Compound and Device Design
[0089] The present disclosure describes methods, compounds, and lens devices that mitigate damage to retinal epithelial cells while balancing changes to luminous transmission, discomfort glare, color distortion, and disruption of circadian rhythms and that simultaneously comply with constraints based on chemical stability during manufacture, photobleaching or oxidation, and contact with living tissues.
Optical Transmission
[0090] The energy of photons absorbed by retinal pigments is inversely proportional to their wavelength. The primary mechanism of retinal damage by blue and violet light is known to involve absorption by pigments such as lipofuscin that trigger production of reactive oxygen species. Careful measurements of these processes have resulted in action spectra for the impact of different wavelengths of light on damage to retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells, as described for example in Marie et al. Cell Death and Disease (2018) 9:287 or Hammond et al. in Clinical Ophthalmology 2019:13 2427-2438, and shown in
[0091] The sensitivity of the human visual system is also characterized by wavelength dependencies that vary with the overall scene luminance. The sensitivity functions for night (scotopic) visual acuity are shifted to the blue compared with those for daylight (photopic) vision as shown in
[0092] Discomfort glare is also disproportionately perceived by light of shorter visible wavelengths, as shown in
[0093] Another factor that requires consideration when filtering visible light is the mechanism by which blue light suppresses melatonin synthesis. The fading of blue light provides a phase locking signal for circadian rhythms with explicit wavelength variation defined in the action spectrum reported by Brainard et al. in The Journal of Neuroscience, 21(16), 6405-12, 15 Aug. 2001.
[0094] Internal absorption is also known to influence the perceived color of objects, so consideration of this effect, though slightly more complex, is also important. Color distortion is most conveniently calculated using the L*a*b* uniform color space in which framework one unit of length corresponds to a ‘just noticeable difference’ in color based on psychophysical measurements with human observers and controlled illumination. The full range of colors visible to humans is spanned by the 1269 Munsell color tiles as described, for example, by Romney and Indow, Color research and application, 28(3), 182-96, 2003. The color shift in uniform color space can be calculated based on the displacement in L*a*b* for each of the color tiles when internal absorption by dye is incorporated. This approach is amply described in the prior art, for example in U.S. Pat. No. 9,063,349. Incorporating the shift in color space can be accomplished by using a statistical moment of the distribution of L*a*b* shifts such as the mean, median, or variance, or a simple sum of all of the displacements, as illustrated in the embodiments below.
Chemical Stability Factors
[0095] Manufacturing processes for contact and intraocular lenses require varied chemical conditions. First, internal transmission is limited by the range of products of lens thickness, dye concentration, and extinction coefficient that can be achieved with the required solvents and resins.
[0096] Second, the dye must be chemically stable under the reaction conditions required for their manufacture. These include interaction with reactive species present during thermal or photochemical polymerization, elevated pressures and temperatures encountered in injection molding, and exposure to oxygen.
[0097] Third, the final product must be biocompatible; the dye material is preferably neither toxic nor irritating and is incorporated into the product by covalent bonds.
[0098] Finally, the dye incorporated into the lens matrix must be photostable. Contact lenses, which are exposed to ambient light, air, and fluid on the corneal surface, must resist photooxidative degradation for the duration of its use. Intraocular lenses similarly must withstand light that penetrates the iris and remain compatible with the vitreous humor, in this case for a much longer time than for a contact lens.
Chemical Families: Porphyrins and Chlorins
[0099] The following embodiments describe the method of the disclosure for compositions with porphyrin or chlorin ring configurations, representative examples of which are shown in
[0100] The term “porphyrin” refers to a group of heterocyclic macrocycle organic compounds, composed of four modified pyrrole subunits interconnected at their a carbon atoms via methine bridges (═CH—). With a total of 26 π-electrons, of which 18 π-electrons form a planar, continuous cycle, the porphyrin ring structure is often described as aromatic.
[0101] The term “chlorin” refers to a group of compounds related to the porphyrins. Chlorins are reduced derivatives of porphyrins (i.e., dihydroporphyrin) wherein one pyrrole has been converted to a pyrroline.
[0102] These materials have planar, conjugated p-orbitals on a rigid ring that may also include a metal with d-orbitals that interact with the pi cloud of the heteroatomic ring system. These features provide the basis for strong optical absorption in the blue and violet spectral regions. However, other dye materials with the requisite extinction coefficient, solubility, and chemical stability may also be employed according to this method.
Design Embodiments
[0103] The absorption spectra for the porphyrin and chlorin dyes are shown in
[0104] The relative impact of internal absorption by these dyes is computed by integrating the product of the action spectra with a dyed lens and dividing by the integral of the action spectra with no dye. The resulting percentages are show for the 13 porphyrin dyes and each of the optical qualities, photopic and scotopic luminous transmission, retinal pigment epithelial toxicity, melatonin suppression, and discomfort glare in
[0105] The average color distortion and its standard deviation using the above calculations for these 13 dyes at a concentration*path-length product of 3×10.sup.−6 l/mol are shown in
[0106] The next and final step in ranking the optical performance of each dye combines the transmissive property changes with the color distortion using a weighting function that quantifies the relative importance of each property displayed in

[0107] The simplest weighting function for ranking these dyes is a vector whose elements are +1 for desirable properties and −1 for undesirable properties: [1 1 −1 1 −1 −1]. The inner product of each column corresponding to a different dye is shown in
[0108] In another embodiment, the concentration of a dye can be adjusted to useful concentrations by evaluating the weighted properties for transmission spectra calculated at different concentrations, subject to solubility and chemical stability constraints, at a prescribed lens thickness. The absorption and transmission spectra at increasing c*l products for the copper chlorin CuC-1 are displayed in
[0109] A further embodiment of the disclosure entails simultaneous maximization of the weighted properties with respect to both dye composition and concentration.
[0110] Yet another embodiment of the disclosure uses transmission spectra computed from mixed compositions involving two or more chemically compatible dyes where the ratio of individual dyes is also adjusted to maximize the weighted properties.
[0111] Thus, in one embodiment, disclosed is a method of designing an optical device that protects retinal pigment epithelium from blue light, the method comprising:
[0112] providing a first optical device comprising a porphyrin or chlorin compound;

[0116] integrating an action spectra for each measured transmissive property of the second device;
[0117] dividing the integral obtained for the first device by the integral obtained for the second device for that measured property to provide a change in the transmissive property;
[0118] measuring a color shift in uniform color space for the first optical device as compared to the second optical device;
[0119] combining the transmissive property changes and the color shift using a weighting function that quantifies the relative importance of each property; and
[0120] ranking optical performance of the porphyrin or chlorin compound.
[0121] In certain embodiments, the method includes measuring at least three of photopic luminous transmission, scotopic luminous transmission, retinal pigment epithelial toxicity, melatonin suppression, and discomfort glare for each of the first and second optical devices.

[0323] Step 1: The target porphyrin was generated using reaction conditions reported by Lindsay et. al. (J. Porphyrins Phthalocyanines 2002; 6: 159-185). 95 g (1.42 mol) Pyrrole and 120 g (1.489 mol) 4-bromomethylbenzaldehyde were charged to methylene chloride. A nitrogen purge of the reaction flask was performed for 15 minutes and then 11 mL (0.09 mol) BF.sub.3-Et.sub.2O was charged. The reaction was stirred for 1 hour at ambient temperature before 261 g (1.06 mol) p-chloranil was charged. Following an 18 hour hold, the reaction solution was passed through a silica gel plug eluting with methylene chloride and the filtrate collected. Concentration of the solution produced a finely divided purple solid suspension. The suspension was filtered, and the resulting wet cake washed with minimal MeOH. 250.36 g (72% yield) of meso-tetra (4-bromomethylphenyl) porphine was isolated after lyophilization. .sup.1H NMR (CDCl.sub.3) δ 8.812 (s, 8H), 8.166 (d, 8H), 7.770 (d, 8H), 4.826 (s, 8H), −2.858 (s, 2H); UV-VIS (CH.sub.2Cl.sub.2) 419.0, 515.5, 551.0, 590.5, 646.0 nm.
[0324] Step 2: 1 g (1 mmol) meso-Tetra (4-bromomethylphenyl) porphine and 1.47 mL (8 mmol)N-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]methacrylamide were charged to 20 mL N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc). The reaction solution was agitated for 2 hours at ambient temperature and then poured into 250 mL ethyl acetate (EtOAc) and the resulting solid was collected by filtration and washed with minimal EtOAc to provide compound 1. This crude solid was then carried forward to Step 3 without drying. See .sup.1H NMR in
