Abstract: The present invention disclosed compounds of Formula I. The present invention also discloses beta-3 agonists of formula I and methods for treating beta-3 mediated diseases and condition using the compounds of formula I, in particular methods for treating diabetes or obesity.

Abstract: The present invention relates to certain novel pyrimidine intermediates and their salts, processes for their preparation and processes for their conversion to 9-substituted-2-aminopurines which are useful in medical therapy.

Abstract: An improved process for preparing steriods, such as 3-oxo-4-azasteroids, is described. Compounds of this type are known to be useful in the preparation of compounds having 5a-reductase inhibitor activity. The process comprises the hydrogenation of the corresponding steroid alkene in the presence of ammonium acetate, ammonium formate, and/or ammonium propionate and an appropriate catalyst.

Abstract: A method for the treatment of conditions associated with a need for inhibition of GSK-3, such as diabetes, dementias such as Alzheimer's disease and manic depression which method comprises the administration of a pharmaceutically effective, non-toxic amount of a compound of formula (I): or a pharmaceutically acceptable derivative thereof, wherein: R is hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, or aralkyl; R1 is hydrogen, alkyl, aralkyl, hydroxyalkyl or alkoxyalkyl; R2 is substituted or unsubstituted aryl or substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclyl; R3 is hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, cycloalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclyl or aralkyl wherein the aryl moiety is substituted or unsubstituted; or, R1 and R3 together with the nitrogen to which they are attached form a single or fused, optionally substituted, saturated or unsaturated heterocylic ring; to a human or non-human mammal in need thereof, and compounds of formula I.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for the preparation of a carbocyclic purine nucleoside analogue of formula (I), its salts and pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives thereof which comprises hydrolysing a compound of formula (IV) wherein P is a protecting group, in the presence of an acid, condensing the product of formula (V) formed in situ in the presence of a base with a compound of formula (VI) followed by in situ ring closure of the resulting intermediate.
