Description
This invention relates to compounds that are monoacylglycerol lipase (MAGL) inhibitors. Another aspect of the invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the compounds, and to the use of the compounds for treating diseases and disorders related to the modulation of endogenous cannabinoid signaling activity. MAGL is a member of the serine hydrolase superfamily. MAGL is expressed throughout the brain, including in neurons, microglial cells, astrocytes, and oligodendrocytes. MAGL is the key enzyme that regulates the breakdown of 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) to arachidonic acid (AA) (Blankman et al. Chem Biol. 2007; Nomura et al. Science. 2011). 2-AG is the most abundant endogenous cannabinoid ligand in the brain, where it functions as a retrograde messenger that reduces excessive neurotransmission through activation of presynaptic CB1 receptors (Kano et al. Physiol Rev. 2009; Katona and Freund. Physiol Rev. 2009), modulates the immune response through activation of microglial cell CB2 receptors (Turcotte et al. Cell Mol Life Sci. 2016), and promotes neuroprotection, for example, by influencing oligodendrocyte production and survival (Ilyasov et al. Front Neurosci. 2018). AA is one of the most abundant fatty acids in the brain and is a major precursor to prostanoids and eicosanoids such as leukotrienes, which are known as inflammatory mediators. MAGL lies at the crossroads between the endogenous cannabinoid and eicosanoid signaling systems. Inhibiting the action or activation of MAGL is a promising therapeutic approach for the prevention or treatment of brain disorders, including those characterized by hypertransmission, neuroinflammation, or neurodegeneration, such as Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), Huntington's disease (HD), multiple sclerosis (MS), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), traumatic brain injury, stroke, epilepsy, pain, migraines, addiction, anxiety, depression, and other stress-related disorders (Grabner et al. Pharmacol Ther. 2017; Mulvihill et al. Life Sci. 2013; Gil-Ordonez et al. Biochem Pharmacol. 2018). International Publication No. 2019/046318 discloses spirocyclic compounds that are MAGL inhibitors. International Publication No. 2019/046330 discloses spirocyclic compounds that are MAGL inhibitors. Despite advances in MAGL research, there is still a shortage of potent, effective, and selective inhibitors of MAGL that are beneficial for treating neurological and psychiatric disorders associated with diseases or disorders that benefit from inhibiting MAGL activation. The object of the present invention is to provide a compound that inhibits MAGL. Therefore, the present invention relates to formula (I), (In the formula, R1 represents -C(O)NHR2, -C(O)N( CH3 )R2, -C(O)NR3R4, -C(O) NHCH2R2 , or -C(O)NHC(O)R2; R2 represents a phenyl or a five- or six-membered heteroaryl having one or two heteroatoms independently selected from N, O, and S; a six-membered heterocycle having one or two heteroatoms independently selected from N or O; a C3 - C7 cycloalkyl; or a seven-membered bicyclic heterocycle having one or two heteroatoms independently selected from N or O; R3 and R4, together with the N to which they are attached, form a nine-membered or ten-membered bicyclic heterocycle having one to four heteroatoms independently selected from N or O, or a six-membered heterocycle having one or two heteroatoms independently selected from N or O; The present invention provides compounds of each phenyl, five- or six-membered heteroaryl, six-membered heterocycle, C3 - C7 cycloalkyl, seven-membered bicyclic heterocycle, or nine- or ten-membered bicyclic heterocycle that are unsubstituted or substituted with halogens, C1 - C3 alkyl, C1 - C3 haloalkyl, C3 - C6 cycloalkyl, C1 - C3 alkoxy, cyano, -NHC(O) CH3 , -C(O) NH2 , -C (O) NHCH3 , five-membered heteroaryl having one or two heteroatoms independently selected from N or O, -NHSO2CH3 , -P(O)( CH3 ) 2 , and -OCH2COOH , or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. In a further aspect of the present invention, a pharmaceutical composition is provided comprising a compound of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or diluents. In a further aspect of the present invention, compounds of formula (I) or pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof are provided for use in the treatment of diseases or disorders selected from pain, epilepsy/paroxysmal disorders, Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, Huntington's disease, multiple sclerosis, obsessive-compulsive disorder, Parkinson's disease, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, and dystonia. A further aspect of the present invention provides a method for treating neurological and/or psychiatric disorders selected from pain, epilepsy/paroxysmal disorders, Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, Huntington's disease, multiple sclerosis, obsessive-compulsive disorder, Parkinson
