Benefits of technology

[0016]WO2007 / 040440, published Dec. 4. 2007, relates to imidazole and phenyl substituted pyrimidine compounds that are stated to have a selective inhibiting effect at GSK3 as well as a good bioavailability.

Problems solved by technology

This results in depolymerization of microtubules, which leads to dying of axons and neuritic dystrophy.
The disadvantage of lithium is the narrow therapeutic window and the danger of overdosing that can lead to lithium intoxication.

example 1

5-Fluoro-N-(2-fluoro-4-(morpholinomethyl)phenyl)-4-(2-methyl-1-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)-1H-imidazol-5-yl)pyrimidin-2-amine

[0146]

[0147]5-Fluoro-4-(2-methyl-1-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)-1H-imidazol-5-yl)pyrimidin-2-amine (5.12 g, 18.46 mmol), 4-(4-bromo-3-fluorobenzyl)morpholine (5.06 g, 18.46 mmol), (1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene)-dichloropalladium(II) (0.152 g, 0.18 mmol), 9,9-dimethyl-4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)xanthene (0.107 g, 0.18 mmol) and sodium tert-pentoxide (4.07 g, 36.92 mmol) in toluene (70 mL) were mixed and degased. The mixture was stirred at 110° C. under nitrogen atmosphere overnight. The mixture was concentrated. Dichloromethane and water were added and the phases were separated. The organic phase was concentrated and the crude was purified by preparative HPLC. The pooled fractions were concentrated to about half volume. The residue was extracted with EtOAc (×2). The combined organic phases were concentrated and the residue was dried in vacuum at 40° C. for ...

[0153]

[0154](R)-4-(4-Bromo-3-fluorobenzyl)-3-methylmorpholine (200 mg, 0.69 mmol), 5-fluoro-4-(2-methyl-1-(tetrahydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)-1H-imidazol-5-yl)pyrimidin-2-amine (192 mg, 0.69 mmol) and potassium tert-butoxide (78 mg, 0.69 mmol) were mixed in dioxane (4 ml) and the mixture was stirred under a stream of argon for 5 minutes. Pd2(dba)3 (76 mg, 0.08 mmol) and X-Phos (79 mg, 0.17 mmol) were added followed by DMF (1 ml) and the reaction mixture was heated in a microwave reactor at 120° C. for 40 minutes. The crude was filtered through diatomeous earth. The filtrate was diluted with dichloromethane and was washed with brine. The aquous phase was extracted with dichloromethane (×3). The organic phases were pooled, evaporated and purified by column chromatography on silica followed by preparative HPLC. Fractions containing product were ...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a new compound of formula (I) wherein R1 is hydrogen or fluoro; R2 and R3 are independently selected from hydrogen or methyl; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, pharmaceutical formulations containing said compound, to the use of said active compound in therapy, to the use for the treatment of conditions associated with glycogen synthase kinase-3 related disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease, as well as for the method of treatment of said disorders, comprising administering to a mammal, including human in need of such treatment, a therapeutically effective amount of said compound.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to new compounds of formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, to pharmaceutical formulations containing said compounds and to the use of said compounds in therapy. The present invention further relates to a process for the preparation of said compounds of formula (I).BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Glycogen synthase kinase 3 (GSK3) is a serine / threonine protein kinase composed of two isoforms (α and β), which are encoded by distinct genes but are highly homologous within the catalytic domain. GSK3 is highly expressed in the central and peripheral nervous system. GSK3 phosphorylates several substrates including tau, β-catenin, glycogen synthase, pyruvate dehydrogenase and elongation initiation factor 2b (eIF2b). Insulin and growth factors activate protein kinase B, which phosphorylates GSK3 on serine 9 residue and inactivates it (Kannoji et al, Expert Opin. Ther. Targets 2008, 12, 1443-1455).Alzheimer's Disea...
