The present invention relates to derivatives of known active pharmaceutical compounds. These derivatives are differentiated from the parent active compound by virtue of being redox derivatives of the active compound. This means that one or more of the functional groups in the active compound has been converted to another group in one or more reactions which may be considered to represent a change of oxidation state. We refer to these compounds generally as redox derivatives. The derivatives of the invention may be related to the original parent active pharmaceutical compound by only a single step transformation, or may be related via several synthetic steps including one or more changes of oxidation state. In certain cases, the functional group obtained after two or more transformations may be in the same oxidation state as the parent active compound (and we include these compounds in our definition of redox derivatives). In other cases, the oxidation state of the derivative of the invention may be regarded as being different from that of the parent compound. In many cases, the compounds of the invention have inherent therapeutic activity on their own account. In some cases, this activity relative to the same target or targets of the parent compound is as good as or better than the activity which the parent compound has against the target or targets.
本发明涉及已知活性药物化合物的衍生物。这些衍生物通过是活性化合物的氧化还原衍生物与母体活性化合物相区别。这意味着活性化合物中的一个或多个官能团已转化为另一组,在一项或多项反应中,这可以被认为代表氧化态的变化。我们通常将这些化合物称为氧化还原衍生物。发明中的衍生物可能与原始母体活性药物化合物仅通过单一步骤转换有关,或者可能通过包括一个或多个氧化态变化的几个合成步骤与之相关。在某些情况下,经过两个或更多转换后获得的官能团可能与母体活性化合物处于相同的氧化态(我们将这些化合物包括在我们的氧化还原衍生物定义中)。在其他情况下,发明的衍生物的氧化态可以被认为是与母体化合物不同的。在许多情况下,发明中的化合物本身就具有固有的治疗活性。在某些情况下,相对于母体化合物的相同靶点或靶点,这种活性与母体化合物针对该靶点或靶点的活性一样好或更好。
