`

`
`This
`
`invention relates to aryl
`
`fused azapolycyclic compounds, as defined more
`
`specifically by formula I below. Compounds of formula I bind to neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine
`
`specific receptor sites and are useful in modulating cholinergic function. Such compounds are
`
`useful in the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease (including but not limited to ulcerative
`
`colitis, pyoderma gangrenosum and Crohn’s disease),
`
`irritable bowel syndrome, spastic
`
`dystonia, chronic pain, acute pain, celiac sprue, pouchitis, vasoconstriction, anxiety, panic
`
`disorder, depression, bipolar disorder, autism, sleep disorders,
`
`jet
`
`lag, amylotropic lateral
`
`sclerosis
`
`(ALS), cognitive dysfunction, hypertension, bulimia,
`
`anorexia, obesity, cardiac
`
`arrythmias, gastric acid hypersecretion, ulcers, pheochromocytoma, progressive supramuscular
`
`palsy, chemical dependencies and addictions (eg, dependencies on, or addictions to nicotine
`
`(and/or
`
`tobacco products),
`
`alcohol, benzodiazepines, barbituates, opioids or cocaine),
`
`headache, stroke,
`
`traumatic brain injury (TBl), obsessive—compulsive disorder, psychosis,
`
`Huntington’s Chorea,
`
`tardive dyskinesia, hyperkinesia, dyslexia, schizophrenia, multi-infarct
`
`dementia, age related cognitive decline, epilepsy,
`
`including petit mal absence epilepsy, senile
`
`dementia of the Alzheimer's type (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), attention deficit hyperactivity
`
`disorder (ADHD) and Tourette’s Syndrome.
`
`The compounds of
`
`this
`
`invention may also be used in combination with an
`
`antidepressant such as, for example, a tricyclic antidepressant or a serotonin reuptake inhibiting
`
`antidepressant (SRI), in order to treat both the cognitive decline and depression associated with
`
`AD, PD, stroke, Huntington’s Chorea or traumatic brain injury (TBl),
`
`in combination with
`
`muscarinic agonists in order to stimulate both central muscarinic and nicotinic receptors for the
`
`treatment, for example, of ALS, cognitive dysfunction, age related cognitive decline, AD, PD,
`
`stroke, Huntington’s Chorea and TBI; in combination with neurotrophic factors such as NGF in
`
`order to maximize cholinergic enhancement for the treatment, for example, of ALS, cognitive
`
`dysfunction, age related cognitive decline, AD, PD stroke, Huntington’s Chorea and TBl, or in
`
`combination with agents that slow or arrest AD such as cognition enhancers, amyloid
`
`aggregation inhibitors, secretase inhibitors,
`
`tau kinase inhibitors, neuronal antiinflammatory
`
`agents and estrogen-like therapy.

`
`Scheme 1—10 illustrate methods of synthesizing compounds of the formula I
`
`.
`
`Referring to Scheme 1, the starting material of formula III is reacted with trifluoroacetic
`
`anhydride,
`
`in the presence of pyridine, to form the compound of formula W. This reaction is
`
`typically conducted in methylene chloride at a temperature from about 0°C to about room
`
`temperature.
`
`The compound of formula IV is then converted into the dinitro derivative of formula ”A
`
`by the following process. The compound of the formula W is added to a mixture of 4 or more
`
`equivalents of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (CF 3SOZOH) and 2 to 3 equivalents of nitric acid, in
`
`a chlorinated hydrocarbon solvent such as chloroform, dichoroethane (DCE) or methylene
`
`chloride. The resulting mixture is allowed to react for about 5 to 24 hours. Both of the foregoing
`
`reactions are generally conducted at a temperature ranging from about —78°C to about 0°C for
`
`about 2 hours, and then allowed to warm to room temperature for the remaining time.
`
`Reduction of the compound of formula “A, using methods well known to those of skill in
`
`the art, yields the compound of formula IIB. This reduction can be accomplished, for example,
`
`using hydrogen and a palladium catalyst such as palladium hydroxide and running the reaction
`
`in methanol at about room temperature.
`
`Referring to Scheme 2, the compound of formula HA is converted into the corresponding
`
`compound wherein the trifluoroacetyl protecting group is replaced by a t-Boc protecting group
`
`(VIA) by reacting it first with an alkali metal or alkaline earth metal (or ammonium) hydroxide or
`
`carbonate, and then reacting the isolated product
`
`from the foregoing reaction with di-t-
`
`butyldicarbonate. The reaction with the alkali or alkaline earth metal (or ammonium) hydroxide
`
`or carbonate is generally carried out in an aqueous alcohol, dioxane or tetrahydrofuran (THF) at
`
`a temperature from about room temperature to about 70°C, preferably at about 70°C, for about
`
`one to about 24 hours. The reaction of the isolated, unprotected amine or an acid addition salt of
`
`such amine, from the above reaction with di-t—butyidicarbonate is preferably carried out in a
`
`solvent such as THF, dioxane or methylene chloride at a temperature from about 0°C to about
`
`room temperature. This reaction may or may not be conducted in the presence of a base.
`
`When the reactant is a salt of the amine, use of a base is preferred. The resulting compound of
`
`formula VIA can be converted into the corresponding diamino derivative of formula VIB using the
`
`procedure described above for converting the dinitro compound of formula IIA into the
`
`corresponding diamino compound of formula MB.
`
`The conversion of the compound of formula VIB into the desired compound of the
`
`formula Vll can be accomplished by reacting the compound of formula VIB with a compound of
`the formula

`

`

`
`optionally substituted with from one to seven fluorine atoms. (C1—Cs)alkoxy optionally substituted
`
`with from one to seven fluorine atoms and cyano. The preferred solvent for this reaction is a
`
`10:1 mixture of ethanolzacetic acid. The reaction temperature can range from about 40°C to
`
`about 100°C.
`
`It
`
`is preferably about 60°C. Other appropriate solvents include acetic acid,
`
`ethanol and isopropanol.
`
`Alternate methods of preparing compounds of the formula Vll
`
`the compound of
`
`formula VIB are described by Segelstein eta_l., Tetrahedron Lett., 1993, 33:, 1897.
`
`Removal of the t-Boc protecting group from the compound of formula Vll yields
`
`corresponding compound of formula IA. The protecting group can be removed using methods
`
`well known to those of skill
`
`in the art. For example, the compound of formula V“ can be
`
`treated with an anhydrous acid such as hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acid, methanesulfonic
`
`acid, or trifluoroacetic acid, preferably hydrochloric acid in ethyl acetate, at a temperature from
`
`about 0°C to about 100°C, preferably from about room temperature to about 70°C, for about
`one to 24 hours.

`
`The compound of formula V” can be converted into the corresponding compound of
`
`formula IB by reacting it with a compound of the formula R172, wherein R17 is defined as R10 is
`
`defined above, and Z is a leaving group such as a halo or sulfonate (e_.g_., chloro, bromo,
`
`mesylate or tosylate), in the presence of a base such as an alkali metal hydride, hydroxide or
`

`

`

`
`in
`
`a
`

`
`solvent
`
`such
`
`as water,
`
`dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), THF or DMF, preferably a mixture of DMSO and water, and then
`
`removing the protecting group as described above. The reaction with R172 is generally
`
`carried out at a temperature from about room temperature to about 100°C, preferably at about
`50°C, for about five hours.
