## Background
RELATED APPLICATIONS
This application is a 35 U.S.C. §371 national phase application of PCT Application PCT/CN2012/000104, filed Jan. 20, 2012, which claims priority to CN 201110028107.3, filed Jan. 26, 2011. The entire content of each of these applications is incorporated herein by reference.
TECHNICAL FIELD
The present invention relates to ribofuranosyl purine compounds, methods for preparing the same and use thereof in the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of diseases associated with platelet aggregation. More specifically, the present invention relates to compounds having 9-β-D-ribofuranosyl purine as the parent structure, and comprising a substituted amino group at 6-position and a substituted hydrosulfuryl at 2-position, and relates to methods for preparing the same and use thereof for the treatment of diseases associated with platelet aggregation and in the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of diseases associated with platelet aggregation, and relates to pharmaceutical compositions and formulations comprising said compounds.
BACKGROUND ART
Due to the biological importance of purine and the pharmacologists' studies on purine antineoplastic and antiviral medicines, purine chemistry develops rapidly. The research shows that purine compounds have important biological activities such as anti-viral, anti-cancer, blood pressure decreasing activities. The compounds prepared by using purine derivatives as the intermediates have special efficacy on cancers, AIDS, thrombosis and the like. The medicines such as from the earliest acyclovir to the lately developed ganciclovir, valganciclovir, abacavir, fludarabine and the like are widely and clinically applied (Bioorg. Med. Chem. Lett. 2009, 19, 242-246 and Synthesis 2008, 20, 3253-3260). In WO2004/058791A2, it is disclosed that 6-(substituted) benzylamino adenosine derivatives are thought to have anticancer, mitotic, immunosuppressive and antisenescent properties. In WO2010/130233A1, it is disclosed that 2-substituted-6-(substituted)benzylamino purine riboside derivatives are thought to have antiapoptotic, anti-inflammatory and differentiation activities.
Anthony H. Ingall et al. disclosed in 1994 (WO 94/18216) N-alkyl-2-substituted ATP analogues having the following formula, and methods for preparing the same,




wherein R1 and R2 independently represent H or halogen; R3 and R4 independently represent phenyl or C1-6 alkyl optionally substituted by one or more substitute(s) selected from the group consisting of OR5, C1-6 alkylthio, NR6R7, phenyl, COOR8 and halogen; R5, R6, R7 and R8 independently represent H or C1-6 alkyl; and X represents the acidic moiety. Such PCT application further provides the representative data of the in vitro anti-platelet aggregation activity test of the compounds, in which the tests were carried out by using human platelet treated with water. Anthony H. Ingall et al. further disclosed in 1999 a process for preparing 2-alkylthio-6-(alkyl)amino-5′-substituted-9-β-D-ribofuranosyl purine compounds (AR-C compounds) having the following formula





and the results of the activity measurement of ADP-induced platelet aggregation resistance carried out by using human platelet treated with water. The results show the above compounds have the activity of ADP-induced human platelet aggregation resistance (J. Med. Chem. 1999, 42, 213-220). The AR-C compound—Canrgelor is thought to have the advantages of high activity, fast effect, short half-life, reversibility, direct inhibition of platelet activation and the like (Eur. Heart. J. Suppl. 2008, 10, 133-137 and Recent Patents on Cardiovascular Drug Discovery, 2008, 3, 194-200), and has the prospect of being developed into a new class of antithrombotics medicines. Thus studies on the activity of anti-platelet aggregation of such 5′-substituted-9-β-D-ribofuranosyl purine compounds have become one of hotspots in the field of drug research.

However, the AR-C compounds have a complex structure, a longer synthesis routes, and a very tedious post-treatment process, in particular a biochemical reagent is required for introducing a substituted triphosphoric acid side chain into the 5′-position, and the said compounds have a bad oral availability. Thus there is an urgent need to develop a candidate medicine for anti-platelet aggregation having a simple structure, easy to synthesize, a better therapeutic effect and a lower side effect.
During the studies on the platelet aggregation inhibitors, the inventor of the present invention discovered a series of novel 2-substituted hydrosulfuryl-6-substituted amino-9-β-D-ribofuranosyl purine compounds having notable activity of anti-platelet aggregation and a simple structure, and measured the in vitro anti-platelet aggregation activity of the compounds, so as to achieve the present invention.

III. Bioactivity Assay
The inventor conducted the anti-platelet aggregation activity screening for the compounds of the present invention, carried out the anti-platelet aggregation test by using the blood platelet which was closed to human physiological state and was not washed with water, and conducted the activity test of the in vitro anti-platelet aggregation induced by ADP, and also the activity test of the in vitro anti-platelet aggregation induced by AA (arachidonic acid) for some compounds. The present invention firstly discloses the activity test of the in vitro anti-platelet aggregation induced by AA conducted with said type of compounds. The results show that the compounds of the present invention have a notable anti-platelet aggregation activity.
Evaluation of Anti-Platelet Aggregation Activity
The anti-platelet aggregation test of the compounds was conducted by the aggregometer (Model 400VS, Chrono-Log, Haverston, Pa.) from Chrono-Log Corp. ADP, AA (arachidonic acid), DMSO and trisodium citrate were purchased from Sigama.
1. Test Method:
The whole blood was obtained from healthy volunteers who did not take any anti-platelet medicines within 2 weeks. The fasting venous blood of the subjects was collected, and placed into a 50 mL sampling tube containing 3.8% sodium citrate, and mixed homogeneously in a ratio of 1:9 (v/v) for anticoagulation, and centrifugalized at 300 rpm/min for 20 min.
The supernatant was taken to obtain platelet-rich blood plasma (PRP). The residual blood was then centrifugalized at 900 rpm/min for 10 min, and the supernatant fluid was taken to obtain platelet-poverty blood plasma (PPP). The analysis of platelet aggregation was conducted by using the aggregometer (Chrono-Log Corp.), wherein PRP and PPP were respectively added to two turbidimetric tubes. In the aggregometer, platelet-poverty blood plasma (PPP) was used as the control group. DMSO was used as the negative control. The turbidimetric tubes were incubated at 37° C. for 3 min. The PRP was stirred with a stirring rod at 900 rpm/min for 10-20 s, and the inductive agent ADP (10 uM) or AA (0.5 mM) was added to PRP, and start to record the aggregated wave patterns. The chart speed of the recorder (Model 707, Chrono-Log, Haverston, Pa., USA) was set up to be 1 cm min−1, and the aggregation reaction was recorded for not less than 3 min. Finally, the apparatus automatically delineated the aggregation curve and calculated the results, i.e. maximum platelet aggregation rate. When the platelet aggregation was lower than 50% of the control group, the IC50 of the compound was calculated.
