  • Process for the Production of Fused, Tricyclic Sulfonamides
    Publication number: 20110034691
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods, i.e., scalable or large-scale processes for the production of fused, tricyclic sulfonamido analogs, such as substituted or unsubstituted 5-(aryl-sulfonyl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolines and 5-(heteroaryl-sulfonyl)-4,5-dihydro-1H-pyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolines. Exemplary methods of the invention include an intra-molecular cyclization step, in which a carbon-nitrogen bond is formed, and which employs a copper-based catalyst that contains at least one organic ligand, such as DMEDA. The invention further provides compounds, which are useful as intermediates in the methods of the invention.

  • ACYLATED AMINO ACID AMIDYL PYRAZOLES AND RELATED COMPOUNDS
    Publication number: 20100280066
    Abstract: This invention is directed to acylated amino acid amidyl pyrazoles and related compounds of Formula I. The invention is also directed to a pharmaceutical formation comprising such compound or in a pharmaceutically acceptable salt form thereof. The invention is further directed to a method for inhibiting ?-amyloid peptide release and/or synthesis, a method for inhibiting ?-secretase activity, and a method for treating neurological disorders associated with ?-amyloid peptide production. The method comprises administering to a host a pharmaceutical formulation comprising an effective amount of a compound of Formula I. The compounds of Formula I are useful in the prevention and treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
