2. Description of the Related Art
The “background” description provided herein is for the purpose of generally presenting the context of the disclosure. Work of the presently named inventors, to the extent it is described in this background section, as well as aspects of the description which may not otherwise qualify as prior art at the time of filing, are neither expressly or impliedly admitted as prior art against the present invention.
Schizophrenia is a severe psychiatric illness afflicting 1% of the population worldwide. The diagnosis of the disease is based on diverse and variably expressed symptoms which can be grouped as positive and negative. The positive symptoms include disorganized thought, delusions and auditory hallucinations whereas the most characteristic negative symptoms are emotional flattening, poverty of speech and motivational deficits (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. 4th ed., text revision, American Psychiatric Association, Washington, D.C., p. 297-343 (2000)—incorporated herein by reference in its entirety).
Several preclinical observations suggest that combining 5-HT1A and D2 receptor properties may provide a mutually complementary balance of pharmacological activity with reduced undesirable responses (E. P. Prinssen, F. C. Colpaert, W. Koek, Eur. J. Pharmacol., 453, 217 (2002)—incorporated herein by reference in its entirety) Indeed, numerous mechanistic considerations (A. Newman-Tancredi, M. B. Assie, N. Leduc, A. M. Ormiere, N. Danty, C. Cosi, Int. J. Neuropsychopharmacol., 8, 341 (2005); M. B. Assie, V. Ravailhe, V. Faucillon, A. Newman-Tancredi, J. Pharmacol. Exp. Ther., 315, 265 (2005); L. A. B. Slot, L. D. Vries, A. Newman-Tancredi, D. Cussac, Eur. J. Pharmacol., 534, 63 (2006)—each incorporated herein by reference in its entirety) and preclinical evidence (L. A. B. Slot, M. S. Kleven, Neuropharmacology, 49, 996 (2005); M. S. Kleven, C. Barret-Grevoz, L. A. B. Slot, A. Newman-Tancredi, Neuropharmacology, 49, 135 (2005); R. A. Bantick, J. F. W. Deakin, P. M. Grasby, J. Psychopharmacol., 15, 37 (2001)—each incorporated herein by reference in its entirety) support the potential of such a combination. As a result, adoprazine 4 (SLV-313) and bifeprunox 5, bearing potent D2 receptor antagonist and 5-HT1A receptor agonist properties, were developed as depicted in
The failure of 4 and 5 to oppose phencyclidine-induced social interaction deficits demonstrates the difficulty of balancing activity at these sites (A. Newman-Tancredi, Curr. Opin. Invest. Drugs, 11, 802 (2010)—incorporated herein by reference in its entirety) Compounds having effective ratios of D2 and 5-HT1A activities are described herein (S. Cuisiat, N. Bourdiol, V. Lacharme, A. Newman-Tancredi, F. Colpaert, B. Vacher, J. Med. Chem., 50, 865 (2007)—incorporated herein by reference in its entirety)

To accomplish the synthesis of the desired compounds 6a-f, synthesis of the key intermediate (10) was required, which in turn was envision from the Buchwald-Hartwig coupling reaction of 6-bromo-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-2(1H)-one (9) (H. Venkatesan, F. M. Hocutt, T. K. Jones, M. H. Rabinowitz, J. Org. Chem., 75, 3488 (2010)—incorporated herein by reference in its entirety) with tert-butyl piperazine-1-carboxylate. Thus the synthesis of compound (9) was commenced with the reduction of bromobenzonitrile with borane to afford diamine (8), which was reacted with triphosgene to get the desired bromide (9) in 23% overall yield from (7). However, the Buchwald-Hartwig coupling of bromides 9 with tert-butyl piperazine-1-carboxylate, under different reaction conditions (PdCl2dppf, KOAc, DMF, 80° C.; Pd(PPh3)4, toluene, ethanol, Na2CO3, reflux) were not successful; the desired 10 was not observed in any case (scheme 1).
Therefore an alternative approach was adopted in which benzaldehyde 11 was nitrated to the known benzaldehyde 12, which in turn was subjected to reductive amination by condensing it with ammonium hydroxide, using sodium borohydride as reducing agent to produce amine 13 in high yield. Acetylation amine 13 generated acetamide 14, which was reacted with tert-butyl piperazine-1-carboxylate under Buchwald-Hartwig conditions to afford intermediate 15 in good yield. Reduction of nitro group of 15 over Pd—C in a Parr apparatus produced intermediate 16 in 91% yield high yield. Exposure of intermediate 16 under basic conditions rendered the desired diamine 17 in good yield after column purifications. Reaction of 17 with CDI in THF, heating the mixture at 80° C. for 6 hours, gave access to the key intermediate 10 in an overall yield of 33% from 14. Exposure of intermediate 10 to trifluoroacetic acid in a mixture of methanol and dichloromethane finally furnished the desired key intermediate 18 (scheme 2).
Having the desired intermediates 18 in hands, reductive amination of 18 with aldehydes (a-f)15 in DMSO was performed, using NaBH(OAc)3 as reducing agent to accomplish the synthesis of final compounds (6a-f) (scheme 3).
A series of new 6-piperazinyl-3,4-dihydroquinazolin-2(1H)-ones bearing potent D2 receptor antagonist and 5-HT1A receptor agonist properties have been synthesized.
