Problems solved by technology

There are several known difficulties with the SSRI class of therapeutics, including the slow onset of action, unwanted side effects, and the existence of a significant subset of the population that is not responsive to SSRI therapy.
However, long term administration of Nomifensine® resulted in fatal immune hemolytic anemia in a very small number of patients causing the manufacturer to discontinue this drug from the market.

Preparation of 4-(Benzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinotine

[1863] Step A: The product from Step A of Example 3 (0.34 g, 1.3 mmol) in CH3OH (10 ml) was stirred for 10 minutes at room temperature under a N2 atmosphere. Sodium cyanoborohydride (0.49 g, 7.8 mmol) was added and stirred for 2 hours. The addition of 3M HCl (4 ml dropwise) turned the reaction from a milky white solution to yellow / green and back to a milky white solution. The mixture was basified with 2N Na2CO3 solution and then concentrated in vacuo to a white solid. The residue was partitioned in H20 (30 ml) and EtOAc (30 ml). The mixture was extracted with EtOAc (3×30 ml). The combined organic layer was washed with brine (50 ml), dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Chromatography (SiO2, 250 g, 1:49 methanol:EtOAc) afforded the pure product as an oil (0.29 g); HPLC 94.2% purity; 1H NMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 7.70 (d, J=7.84 Hz, 1H), 7.61 (d, J=7.76 Hz, 1H), 7.20 (m, 3H), 7.11 (d, J=3.85 Hz, 2H),...

Preparation of (+)-4-(Benzo[b]furan-2-yl)-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline, hydrochloride salt and (−)-4-(benzo[b]furan-2-yl)-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline, hydrochloride salt

[1865] Racemic 4-(benzo[b]furan-2-yl)-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline was prepared from 2-benzo[b]furanboronic acid and 4-bromoisoquinoline as described in Example 36 (Steps D to F). This racemic compound (120 mg) was separated on semi-prep chiral HPLC (chiralcel OD-H, 1×25 cm, eluent: 3% isopropanol in heptane, flow: 3.1 ml / minute, 500 μl injections, 20 mg / injections). The resulting free bases were dissolved in ethyl acetate and treated with a 2 M solution of HCl in diethyl ether (2 equiv) to give (+)-4-(benzo[b]furan-2-yl)-2-methyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline, hydrochloride salt (13 mg, 99.6% AUC HPLC, 100% AUC chiral HPLC): 1H NMR (300 MHz, Acetone-d6) 7.71-7.80 (m, 1H), 7.50-7.58 (m, 1H), 7.31-7.45 (m, 2H), 7.01-7.23 (m, 5H); 5.35-5.50 (m, 1H), 4.47-4.70 (m, 2H), 3.70-4.00 (m, 2...

Preparation of 4-(Benzo[b]thiophen-2-yl)-2-ethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline, fumarate salt

[1866] Step A: A mixture of 4-bromoisoquinoline (0.64 g, 3.0 mmol) in ethylene glycol dimethyl ether (4 ml), benzothiophene-2-boronic acid (0.69 g, 4.0 mmol), and 2 N Na2CO3 (3 ml) were degassed for 5 minutes then purged under N2 atmosphere for 5 minutes twice. A catalytic amount of Pd(PPh3)4 (0.36 g, 0.3 mmol) was added and the reaction was degassed and purged with N2. The reaction heated to 80° C. with stirring for 12 hours during which the solution turned a dark brown color. The reaction was cooled to room temperature, diluted with H2O (20 ml) and extracted with EtOAc (3×50 ml). The combined organic layer was washed with brine (30 ml), dried with Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. Chromatography (SiO2, 200 g, 1:3 ethyl acetate / hexanes) afforded the pure product as an oil (0.65 g); HPLC 99.5% purity; 1HNMR (500 MHz, CDCl3) δ 9.27 (s, 1H), 8.70 (s, 1H), 8.29 (d, J=8.48 Hz, 1H), 8...

Description

[0001] This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Patent Application Ser. No. 60 / 588,448, filed Jul. 15, 2004, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0002] The present invention relates to novel 4-bicyclic carbocycle- and heterocycle-substituted tetrahydroisoquinoline derivative compounds, pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, methods of using such compounds for the treatment of various neurological and psychological disorders and for combination therapy. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0003] It is well known that the neurotransmitters, dopamine (DA), norepinephrine (NE), and serotonin (5-HT), regulate a number of biological processes and that decreased levels of DA, NE, and 5-HT are associated with a number of neurological disorders and their physical manifestations. Significant effort has been expended on devising methods for adjusting the levels of these neurotransmitters in order to produce a desired pharmacol...
