[0286] The beneficial effects of the present disclosure are demonstrated below through specific test examples.

Test Example 1 for Biological Activity. Study on the Inhibition Rate of Compounds of the Present Disclosure on Ferroptosis

[0287] In this example, in order to study the inhibitor of ferroptosis, a screening model for ferroptosis was constructed in house, and the details are as follows:

[0288] The screening model for ferroptosis mainly used the MTT cell viability assay. First, the fibrosarcoma cell line was cultured in a dish, and the cells in the logarithmic growth phase were seeded in a 96-well plate in specific numbers (3000-10000 cells/well), 100 μL per well, and then cultured in an incubator at 37° C. and 5% CO.sub.2 to allow the cells to adhere. After 24 h, 100 μL of compounds at certain concentrations prepared in the indicated medium and the ferroptosis inducer Erastin (final concentration of 10 μM) were added, and wells in triplicate were set up for each compound to ensure the accuracy of the results. A negative control group, positive control group (5 μM of ferrostain-1), blank control group and solvent control group were also set. After dosing, cells were placed in the incubator and cultured for 72h. On the day of the MTT test, MTT test solution (5 mg/mL MTT solution dissolved in physiological saline, stored at 4° C. in the dark) was pre-prepared, and 20 μL was added to each well. Cells were placed in the incubator and cultured for another 2-4 h. Then, 50 μL of 20% SDS solution (dissolved in MiliiQ water, added with 1% concentrated hydrochloric acid) was added to each well, and cells were placed in the incubator overnight. The next day, the absorbance value at 570 nm was detected with a microplate reader to calculate the inhibition rate of the drug on ferroptosis. Generally, the absorbance value of the control group should be between 0.8-1.2 as a normal value. After obtaining the absorbance value data, the average value of wells in triplicate was calculated, and the inhibition rate was calculated using the following formula:


Inhibition rate (IR) %=[1 -(A.sub.experimental group−A.sub.blank)/(A.sub.solvent−A.sub.blank)]*100%

[0289] The curve of inhibition rate change was fitted using Graph Pad Prism 5 software to obtain EC.sub.50.

[0290] The compounds prepared in the examples were subjected to the EC.sub.50 test (the EC.sub.50 in the test was obtained from the average of three tests with ferrostain-1 as the positive control), and the results were shown in the following table:

TABLE-US-00001 TABLE 1 EC.sub.50 of compounds of the present disclosure Compound EC.sub.50 (μM) Compound EC.sub.50 (μM) 2 0.038 4 0.076 6 0.015 7 0.024 8 0.055 9 0.012 10 0.015 11 0.033 13 0.037 14 0.006 15 0.010 16 0.010 17 0.089 19 0.013 20 0.0002 22 0.014 23 0.067 24 0.056 25 0.055 26 0.076 27 0.073 28 0.058 29 0.029 30 0.092 31 0.011 32 0.050 33 0.067 34 0.042 35 0.074 36 0.016 Ferrostain-1 0.060

[0291] It can be seen from Table 1 that the compounds prepared in the present disclosure had good inhibitory effects on ferroptosis, especially compound 14 and compound 20, which had excellent inhibitory effects on ferroptosis, significantly better than the positive drug ferrostain-1, and thus can be used for the preparation of a ferroptosis inhibitor and a medicament for treating ferroptosis-related diseases such as neurodegenerative disease, tissue ischemia-reperfusion injury, cerebral stroke, cardiovascular disease, renal failure, and diabetic complications.

Test Example 2 for Biological Activity

[0292] A middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) cerebral stroke model (also called cerebral ischemia model) in rat was established by the suture method, to study the therapeutic effects of the compounds of the present disclosure on ischemic cerebral stroke in SD rats after multiple administrations.

[0293] 30 male SD rats were subjected to anesthesia induced with enflurane at 4%-5% volume fraction and maintained with 1%-2% enflurane mixed with 70% N2O and 30% O2. The middle cerebral artery was occluded by the suture method to establish a rat model of ischemia. The ischemic rats were placed at room temperature to keep their body temperature at 37° C. 1.5 hours later, the suture was pulled out for reperfusion. The experiment was carried out with 3 groups (10 random SD rats in each group): model control group (Vehicle), sample group (administered with compound 14 of the present disclosure), and positive drug group (administered with Fer-1). The animals in each group were subjected to middle cerebral artery occlusion with a suture for 1.5 h before the suture was pulled out for reperfusion, and were dissected 24 h after reperfusion. Each group was administered intravenously once within 30 minutes of middle cerebral artery occlusion with a suture and once at 2 hours after reperfusion, for a total of 2 administrations, and the dosage in each group was 5 mg/kg. The cerebral infarction volume in each group was calculated by TTC staining 1 day after dissection. Cerebral infarction volume =cerebral infarction area% * brain volume. The experimental results are shown in FIG. 1.

Test Example 3 for Biological Activity. Activity Test of Compounds of the Present Disclosure in Rat MCAO Cerebral Stroke Model

[0294] 1. Experiment Method

[0295] Through the middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) cerebral stroke model (also known as cerebral ischemia model) in rat, the therapeutic effects of the compounds of the present disclosure at different doses and single administration on ischemic cerebral stroke in SD rats were studied.

[0296] Male SD rats were subjected to anesthesia induced with 2-3.0% isoflurane, and the middle cerebral artery was occluded by the suture method to establish a rat model of ischemia. The ischemic rats were placed at room temperature to keep their body temperature at 37° C. After 90 min, the suture was pulled out for reperfusion.

[0297] The experiment was carried out with 6 groups: model control group, two administration groups of example compound 14 (2.5 mg/kg in the low-dose group and 5 mg/kg in the high-dose group), and two administration groups of the comparative compound 1 (2.5 mg/kg in the low-dose group and 5 mg/kg in the high-dose group) and positive drug administration group (butylphthalide with administration dose of 5 mg/kg). Each group was assigned to 18 model animals, and within 10 min of reperfusion, compound 14, comparative compound 1 and positive drug were administered via tail vein injection. After 24 h of reperfusion, the animals were scored by NSS to evaluate neurological function, and then the animals were dissected to remove the brain for TTC staining. By determining the size of cerebral infarction and calculating the inhibition rate, the therapeutic effects of the test compounds on ischemic cerebral stroke in rats were evaluated comprehensively. Wherein, the comparative compound 1 is the compound 38 of

[0298] Example 2 in Chinese Patent Application Publication CN108484527A shown in the following formula.

##STR00053##

[0299] The percentage of infarct tissue weight in the whole brain was used as the infarct size (%), and the inhibition rate (%) of each drug treatment group was calculated based on the infarct size. The inhibition rate was calculated with the following formula:

Test Example 4 for Biological Activity. Effect of Compounds of the Present Disclosure on Human hERG Ion Channel Expressed in HEK293 Cells at Steady State Determined by Patch Clamp

[0303] The hERG ion channel steady-state expressing HEK293 cells were transferred to a perfusion tank and perfused with extracellular fluid at room temperature. Each cell was used as a control. All test compounds were dissolved by shaking with dimethyl sulfoxide and prepared as serial concentrations of 0.3 μM, 1 μM, 3 μM, 10 μM and 30 μM. The test compounds were perfused using a perfusion system utilizing their own gravity. At least two cells were tested for each concentration. After the current was stable (or 5 min), the current magnitude changes before and after the compound was used were compared to calculate the blocking effect of the compound. Test electrodes were pulled with PC-10. Whole-cell patch clamp was used to record, with noise filtered at one-fifth of the sampling frequency. Cells were clamped at −80 mV, depolarized to +60 mV for 850 ms with a square wave lasting 4 s, and then repolarized to −50 mV for 1275 ms to elicit hERG tail currents. This procedure was repeated every 15 seconds. hERG tail currents were pure hERG currents. After the current was stabilized, the administration was performed by continuous extracellular perfusion from low concentration to high concentration. Starting from a low concentration, perfusion was continued until the drug effect was stable, and then perfusion of the next concentration was performed.

[0304] Stimulus delivery and signal acquisition were performed by the Patch Master software.

[0305] The signal was amplified with a patch clamp amplifier with a filtering of 10 KHz. Fit Master, EXCEL, Graph Pad Prism and SPSS 21.0 were used for further data analysis and curve fitting. In data processing, when judging the blocking effect on hERG the peak value of the tail current and its baseline were corrected. The effect of each compound at different concentrations was expressed by the inhibition rate of the tail current.


Inhibition rate %=100×(peak value of tail current before administration-peak value of tail current after administration)/peak value of tail current before administration

[0306] SD<15 of the inhibition rate of all cells at each concentration was taken as the acceptable standard.

[0307] IC.sub.50 values were fitted by the Hill equation:

[00002] y = [ max - min 1 + ( [ drug ] IC 50 ) n H ] + min

Note: The comparative compound 1 is compound 38 of CN108484527A, and the comparative compound 2 is compound 59 of CN111574474A. Terfenadine has been withdrawn from the FDA because of cardiotoxic side effects such as delayed cardiac repolarization due to its severe influence on myocardial ion channels.

[0308] Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are chronic diseases, which usually require lifelong management and long-term medication. Therefore, in addition to the exact curative effect, the safety of the therapeutic drug must reach a very high level to effectively ensure the safety of patients' long-term medication.

[0309] The main causes of drug-induced cardiotoxicity include blocking the rapid delayed rectifier current (IKr) of the heart, resulting in prolongation of the QT interval in the cardiac action potential time course, and then inducing torsade de pointes (TdP), which can cause sudden death in severe cases.

[0310] In the field of drug development, compounds with significantly lower hERG IC.sub.50 values imply a higher potential risk of cardiotoxicity, and compounds with sufficiently high hERG IC.sub.50 values are considered adequate cardiac safety.

[0311] The above results show that the compounds of the present disclosure exemplified by compound 14 have no significant effect on the human hERG ion channel expressed in HEK293 cells in a steady state, and have good cardiac safety. The cardiac safety data characterized by the hERG inhibitory concentration IC50 value shows that, compared with other structures, the compounds of the present disclosure exemplified by compound 14 have significantly improved cardiac safety by, for example, about 100 times compared with the cardiac safety (IC.sub.50 value for hERG assay) of comparative compound 1, or about 50 times compared with the cardiac safety of compound 59 of CN111574474A.

[0312] In conclusion, the present disclosure has synthesized a new phenothiazine compound, which has a good inhibitory effect on ferroptosis and can be used for the preparation of ferroptosis inhibitor and also a medicament for treating cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as cerebral stroke, and ferroptosis-related diseases such as neurodegenerative disease, tumor, tissue ischemia-reperfusion injury, renal failure, and diabetic complications. Meanwhile, the compounds of the present disclosure exemplified by compound 14 have very good druggability, such as better cardiac safety, solubility, and no hemolysis reaction, and can be prepared as injections with broad market prospects.
