Abstract
This invention relates to compounds of the formula 1 wherein R1, R2, and R3 and R4 are defined as in the specification, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use in the treatment of central nervous system disorders.
Description

This invention relates to a method of preventing or treating attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (“ADHD”) by administering a compound that inhibits the reuptake of norepinephrine. Such compounds are also referred to in the literature as selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (NRIs).


BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has an estimated incidence in school age children of 3-5%, and is characterized by the core symptoms of hyperactivity, impulsivity, and/or inattention. The attentional symptoms of ADHD can be successfully treated with psychomotor stimulants such as methylphenidate (Ritalin). Clonidine, an α2-adrenoceptor agonist, treats the aggressive and oppositional symptoms. There is a potential for significant side effects with both methylphenidate and clonidine, making it important to identify other drugs that have similar or better efficacy with reduced side effects and abuse liability.


ADHD is one of the most common childhood psychiatric disorders and appears to be a common, often underrecognized, psychiatric disease in adults as well (T. Spencer, et al., J Clin Psychiatry, 1998, 59(Suppl. 7), 759-768). This disorder, which begins in childhood, may be followed by a lifelong expression of symptoms (e.g., inattention and/or impulsivity) (J B. Schweitzer, et al., Med Clin North Am, May 2001, 85:3, 757-777). ADHD may change its manifestations as it develops from preschool through adult life (D P. Cantwell, J Am Acad Child Adolesc Psychiatry, Aug. 1996, 35(8), 978-987; J. Elia, et al. N Eng J Med, Mar. 1999, 340(10), 780-788; E E. Nolan, et al., J Am Acad Child Adolesc Psychaitry, Feb. 2001, 40(2), 241-249).


The diagnosis of ADHD is based on clinical evaluation (M. Dulcan, et al. M,J Am Acad Child Adolesc Psychaitry, Oct. 1997, 36(10 Suppl), 85S-121S; National Institutes of Health, 1998). “The essential feature of ADHD is a persistent pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity that is more frequent and severe than is typically observed in individuals at a comparative level of development” (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV), American Psychiatric Association, Washington, D.C., 1994). In order to be diagnosed with ADHD, patients must demonstrate symptoms of ADHD that cause impairment before the age of seven years, and symptoms must have been ongoing for longer than six months in at least two settings (e.g., school [or work] and home). (See DSM-IV).


Several NRI compounds are known. Atomoxetine, an NRI, is now commercially available (Strattera®, Eli Lilly) and is beginning to be used extensively for the clinical treatment of ADHD in both children and adults. Atomoxetine represents a non-stimulant treatment for ADHD. The number of treated ADHD patients is expected to increase as a result of the introduction of atomoxetine and enhanced educational initiatives. Accordingly, there is an ongoing need for ADHD treatments that provide more efficacy than those treatments currently available.

“Pharmaceutically acceptable salts” refers to acid or base addition salts of claimed and disclosed compounds, which are within the scope of sound medical judgment, suitable for use in contact with the tissues of patients without undue toxicity, irritation, allergic response, and the like, commensurate with a reasonable benefit/risk ratio, and effective for their intended use.


The compounds of the present invention also include prodrugs thereof. “Prodrugs” refer to compounds having little or no pharmacological activity that can, when metabolized in vivo, undergo conversion to claimed or disclosed compounds having desired activity. For a discussion of prodrugs, see T. Higuchi and V. Stella, “Pro-drugs as Novel Delivery Systems,” ACS Symposium Series 14 (1975), E. B. Roche (ed.), Bioreversible Carriers in Drug Design (1987), and H. Bundgaar, Design of Prodrugs (1985).


The compounds of formulae 1, 1B, 1C, or 1D and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts are also referred to herein, collectively, as the “novel compounds of this invention” and the “active compounds of this invention”.


This invention also relates to a pharmaceutical composition comprising a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the formulae 1, 1B, 1C, or 1D or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.


Compounds of formulae 1, 1B, 1C, or 1D may contain chiral centers and therefore may exist in different enantiomeric and diastereomeric forms. This invention relates to all optical isomers and all stereoisomers of compounds of the formulae 1, 1B, 1C, or 1D, both as racemic mixtures and as individual enantiomers and diastereoisomers of such compounds, and mixtures thereof, and to all pharmaceutical compositions and methods of treatment defined above that contain or employ them, respectively. Individual isomers can be obtained by known methods, such as optical resolution, optically selective reaction, or chromatographic separation in the preparation of the final product or its intermediate. Individual enantiomers of the compounds of formulae 1, 1B, 1C, or 1D may have advantages, as compared with the racemic mixtures of these compounds, in the treatment of various disorders or conditions.


In so far as the compounds of formulae 1, 1B, 1C, or 1D of this invention are basic compounds, they are all capable of forming a wide variety of different salts with various inorganic and organic acids. Although such salts must be pharmaceutically acceptable for administration to animals, it is often desirable in practice to initially isolate the base compound from the reaction mixture as a pharmaceutically unacceptable salt and then simply convert to the free base compound by treatment with an alkaline reagent and thereafter convert the free base to a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt. The acid addition salts of the base compounds of this invention are readily prepared by treating the base compound with a substantially equivalent amount of the chosen mineral or organic acid in an aqueous solvent or in a suitable organic solvent, such as methanol or ethanol. Upon careful evaporation of the solvent, the desired solid salt is readily obtained. The acids which are used to prepare the pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts of the aforementioned base compounds of this invention are those which form non-toxic acid addition salts, i.e., salts containing pharmaceutically acceptable anions, such as the hydrochloride, hydrobromide, hydroiodide, nitrate, sulfate or bisulfate, oxalate, phosphate or acid phosphate, acetate, lactate, citrate or acid citrate, tartrate or bi-tartrate, succinate, maleate, fumarate, gluconate, saccharate, benzoate, methanesulfonate, ethanesulfonate, benzenesulfonate, p-toluenesulfonate and pamoate (ie., 1,1′-methylene-bis-(2-hydroxy-3-naphthoate)) salts.


The present invention also includes isotopically labeled compounds, which are identical to those recited in formulae 1, 1B, 1C, or 1D, but for the fact that one or more atoms are replaced by an atom having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number usually found in nature. Examples of isotopes that can be incorporated into compounds of the present invention include isotopes of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, phosphorous, sulfur, fluorine and chlorine, such as 2H, 3H, 13C, 11C, 14C, 15N, 18O, 17O, 31P, 32P, 35S, 18F, and 36Cl, respectively. Compounds of the present invention, prodrugs thereof, and pharmaceutically acceptable salts of said compounds or of said prodrugs which contain the aforementioned isotopes and/or other isotopes of other atoms are within the scope of this invention. Certain isotopically labeled compounds of the present invention, for example those into which radioactive isotopes such as 3H and 14C are incorporated, are useful in drug and/or substrate tissue distribution assays. Tritiated, i.e., 3H, and carbon-14, i.e., 14C, isotopes are particularly preferred for their ease of preparation and detectability. Further, substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium, i.e., 2H, can afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability, for example increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements and, hence, may be preferred in some circumstances. Isotopically labeled compounds of formulae 1, 1B, 1C, or 1D of this invention and prodrugs thereof can generally be prepared by carrying out the procedures disclosed in the Schemes and/or in the Examples below, by substituting a readily available isotopically labeled reagent for a non-isotopically labeled reagent.


The compounds of formulae 1, 1B, 1C, or 1D of this invention have useful pharmaceutical and medicinal properties.

Compounds of the present invention 4 can be prepared by reaction of an amine with an appropriately 4-substituted 2-chloro-quinazoline 3, which is obtained by chlorination of a 4-substituted quinazolin-2-one 2 with phosphorous oxychloride and, in some cases together with phosphorus pentachloride. This quinazolin-2-one can be prepared from 2-aminobenzophenone and urea (Scheme A), an appropriately substituted benzonitrile with the lithiated ethyl carbamate of 2-bromoaniline (Scheme B) or from (2-cyano-phenyl)-carbamic acid ethyl ester and a Grignard reagent (Scheme C). Alternatively, one can lithiate an amide and add to a nitrile to form the quinazoline (Method D) or add a lithiate or Grignard to an amido nitrile (Schemes E and F). Finally, one can add a lithiate to an appropriately 4-substituted 2-chloro-quinazoline 3 to form the desired 2-substituted quinazoline (Scheme G).

Scheme H depicts an alternative reaction to the conversion of 2 to 3. Triphenyl phosphine (PPh3) is added to N-chlorosuccinimide (NCS) in dioxane. The reaction mixture is stirred and 2 (e.g., 4-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-7-fluoro-1H-quinazolin-2-one) is added to provide 3 (e.g., 2-Chloro-4-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-7-fluoro-quinazoline).

In Scheme I, a benzyloxycarbonyl (Cbz) protected amino pyrrolidine (e.g., (S)-1-Cbz-3-aminopyrrolidine) or benzyl protected piperazine (e.g., 1-benzyl-3-isopropylpiperazine or 1-benzyl-3-ethylpiperazine) is reacted with 3 (e.g., 2-chloro-4-(2,6-difluoro-phenyl)-quinazoline) in toluene to provide 5 (e.g., 3-[4-(2,6-Difluoro-phenyl)-quinazolin-2-ylamino]-pyrrolidine-1-carboxylic acid benzyl ester). The Cbz group or benzyl group of 5 is then removed by reaction with hydrogen gas over palladium on carbon in methanol.

In Scheme J, 3 (e.g., 2-Chloro-4-(2,4-difluoro-phenyl)-7-fluoro-quinazoline) can be reacted with a t-butoxycarbonyl (BOC) protected piperazine (e.g., (S)-4-N-BOC-2-methylpiperazine) to afford 7 (e.g., 4-[4-(2,4-Difluoro-phenyl)-7-fluoro-quinazolin-2-yl]-3-methyl-piperazine-1-carboxylic acid tert-butyl ester). The BOC group of 7 can then be removed in a solvent such as dichloromethane (DCM) by treatment with an acid such as HCl to provide 8.

In Scheme K, a 2-amino-benzoic acid 10 (e.g., 2-Amino-4-fluoro-benzoic acid) in water and glacial acetic acid is treated with a suspension of sodium cyanate in water. The reaction is treated with base (e.g., sodium hydroxide ) to provide 2 (e.g., 7-Fluoro-1H-quinazoline-2,4-dione). The quinazoline dione 2, dimethylpiperazine, and a tertiary amine (e.g., tripropylamine), in dioxane are treated with phosphorous oxychloride to afford 12 (e.g., 4-Chloro-7-fluoro-2-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)-quinazoline). An aryl boronic acid (e.g., a phenyl boronic acid, 3,4-difluoroboronic acid), 12, potassium fluoride, palladium acetate (Pd(OAc)2) and dicyclohexylphosphinobiphenyl (P(cHex)2biphen) are dissolved in THF (tetrahydrofuran). NaOH and dichloromethane are added and the biphasic mixture was stirred to give 14 (e.g., 4-(3,4-Difluoro-phenyl)-7-fluoro-2-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)-quinazoline). Then 14 in dichloroethane can be treated with proton sponge (1,8-bis(dimethylamino)naphthalene), 1-chloroethyl chloroformate (ACE-Cl) and heated to reflux in the presence of methanol to afford 15 (e.g., 4-(3,4-Difluoro-phenyl)-7-fluoro-2-piperazin-1-yl-quinazoline).

In addition to Scheme K, 12 also may be prepared as depicted in Scheme L. A quinazoline-2,4-dione 2 is dissolved in phosphorous oxychloride and treated slowly with dimethylaniline to afford the 2,4-dichloro-quinazoline 16, which is treated with methylpiperazine, followed by dichloromethane (DCM) and base (e.g., NaOH) to yield 12 (e.g., 2-Chloro4-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)-quinazoline).

Scheme M provides for an additional manner to provide 14 from 12 using Negishi reaction conditions. A phenyl zinc halide (R2-phenyl-Zn—X, where X is a halo group) (e.g., 2-chloro4-fluorophenylzinc iodide) in tetrahydrofuran and a catalytic amount of 1,1-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocenepalladium(II) chloride (PdCl2-dppf) are added to a suspension of 12 (e.g., 4-Chloro-7-fluoro-2-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)-quinazoline) in toluene. The reaction is heated to reflux to afford 14 (e.g., 4-(2-Chloro4-fluoro-phenyl)-7-fluoro-2-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)-quinazoline).


The preparation of other compounds of formulae 1, 1B, 1C, or 1D and intermediates used in their synthesis that are not specifically described in the foregoing experimental section can be accomplished using combinations of the reactions described above that will be apparent to those skilled in the art.


In each of the reactions discussed or illustrated above, pressure is not critical unless otherwise indicated. Pressures from about 0.5 atmospheres to about 5 atmospheres are generally acceptable, and ambient pressure, i.e., about 1 atmosphere, is preferred as a matter of convenience.


The compounds of the formulae 1, 1B, 1C, or 1D and the intermediates shown in the above reaction schemes can be isolated and purified by conventional procedures, such as recrystallization or chromatographic separation.


The compounds of the formulae 1, 1B, 1C, or 1D and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be administered to mammals via routes such as oral, parenteral (such as subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular, intrasternal and infusion techniques), rectal, buccal, and intranasal routes. In general, these compounds are most desirably administered in doses ranging from about 3 mg to about 600 mg per day, in single or divided doses (ie., from 1 to 4 doses per day), although variations will necessarily occur depending upon the species, weight and condition of the patient being treated and the patient's individual response to said medicament, as well as on the type of pharmaceutical formulation chosen and the time period and interval at which such administration is carried out. However, a dosage level that is in the range of about 25 mg to about 100 mg per day is most desirably employed. In some instances, dosage levels below the lower limit of the aforesaid range may be more than adequate, while in other cases still larger doses may be employed without causing any harmful side effects, provided that such higher dose levels are first divided into several small doses for administration throughout the day.


The compounds of the present invention may be administered alone or in combination with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or diluents by any of the routes previously indicated, and such administration may be carried out in single or multiple doses. More particularly, the novel therapeutic agents of this invention can be administered in a wide variety of different dosage forms, i.e., they may be combined with various pharmaceutically acceptable inert carriers in the form of tablets, capsules, lozenges, troches, hard candies, suppositories, jellies, gels, pastes, ointments, aqueous suspensions, injectable solutions, elixirs, syrups, and the like. Such carriers include solid diluents or fillers, sterile aqueous media and various non-toxic organic solvents, etc. Moreover, oral pharmaceutical compositions can be suitably sweetened and/or flavored. In general, the weight ratio of the novel compounds of this invention to the pharmaceutically acceptable carrier will be in the range from about 1:6 to about 2:1, and preferably from about 1:4 to about 1:1.


For oral administration, tablets containing various excipients such as microcrystalline cellulose, sodium citrate, calcium carbonate, dicalcium phosphate and glycine may be employed along with various disintegrants such as starch (and preferably corn, potato or tapioca starch), alginic acid and certain complex silicates, together with granulation binders like polyvinylpyrrolidone, sucrose, gelatin and acacia. Additionally, lubricating agents such as magnesium stearate, sodium lauryl sulfate and talc are often very useful for tabletting purposes. Solid compositions of a similar type may also be employed as fillers in gelatin capsules; preferred materials in this connection also include lactose or milk sugar as well as high molecular weight polyethylene glycols. When aqueous suspensions and/or elixirs are desired for oral administration, the active ingredient may be combined with various sweetening or flavoring agents, coloring matter or dyes, and, if so desired, emulsifying and/or suspending agents as well, together with such diluents as water, ethanol, propylene glycol, glycerin and various like combinations thereof.


For parenteral administration, solutions of a compound of the present invention in either sesame or peanut oil or in aqueous propylene glycol may be employed. The aqueous solutions should be suitably buffered (preferably pH greater than 8) if necessary and the liquid diluent first rendered isotonic. These aqueous solutions are suitable for intravenous injection purposes. The oily solutions are suitable for intra-articular, intramuscular and subcutaneous injection purposes. The preparation of all these solutions under sterile conditions is readily accomplished by standard pharmaceutical techniques well known to those skilled in the art.


This invention relates to methods of treating ADHD, anxiety, depression, schizophrenia and the other disorders referred to in the description of the methods of the present invention, wherein a novel compound of this invention and one or more of the other active agents referred to above (e.g., an NK1 receptor antagonist, an antipsychotic agent, tricyclic antidepressant, 5HT1B receptor antagonist, or serotonin reuptake inhibitor) are administered together, as part of the same pharmaceutical composition, as well as to methods in which such active agents are administered separately as part of an appropriate dose regimen designed to obtain the benefits of the combination therapy. The appropriate dose regimen, the amount of each dose of an active agent administered, and the specific intervals between doses of each active agent will depend upon the subject being treated, the specific active agent being administered and the nature and severity of the specific disorder or condition being treated. In general, the novel compounds of this invention, when used as a single active agent or in combination with another active agent, will be administered to an adult human in an amount from about 3 mg to about 300 mg per day, in single or divided doses, preferably from about 25 to about 100 mg per day. Such compounds may be administered on a regimen of up to 6 times per day, preferably 1 to 4 times per day, especially 2 times per day and most especially once daily. Variations may nevertheless occur depending upon the species of animal being treated and its individual response to said medicament, as well as on the type of pharmaceutical formulation chosen and the time period and interval at which such administration is carried out. In some instances, dosage levels below the lower limit of the aforesaid range may be more than adequate, while in other cases still larger doses may be employed without causing any harmful side effect, provided that such larger doses are first divided into several small doses for administration throughout the day.


A proposed daily dose of a 5HT reuptake inhibitor, preferably sertraline, in the combination methods and compositions of this invention, for oral, parenteral or buccal administration to the average adult human for the treatment of the conditions referred to above, is from about 0.1 mg to about 2000 mg, preferably from about 1 mg to about 200 mg of the 5HT reuptake inhibitor per unit dose, which could be administered, for example, 1 to 4 times per day. A proposed daily dose of a 5HT1B receptor antagonist in the combination methods and compositions of this invention, for oral, parenteral, rectal or buccal administration to the average adult human for the treatment of the conditions referred to above, is from about 0.01 mg to about 2000 mg, preferably from about 0.1 mg to about 200 mg of the 5HT1B receptor antagonist per unit dose, which could be administered, for example, 1 to 4 times per day.


For intranasal administration or administration by inhalation, the novel compounds of the invention are conveniently delivered in the form of a solution or suspension from a pump spray container that is squeezed or pumped by the patient or as an aerosol spray presentation from a pressurized container or a nebulizer, with the use of a suitable propellant, e.g., dichlorodifluoromethane, trichlorofluoromethane, dichlorotetrafluoroethane, carbon dioxide or other suitable gas. In the case of a pressurized aerosol, the dosage unit may be determined by providing a valve to deliver a metered amount. The pressurized container or nebulizer may contain a solution or suspension of the active compound. Capsules and cartridges (made, for example, from gelatin) for use in an inhaler or insufflator may be formulated containing a powder mix of a compound of the invention and a suitable powder base such as lactose or starch. Formulations of the active compounds of this invention for treatment of the conditions referred to above in the average adult human are preferably arranged so that each metered dose or “puff” of aerosol contains 20 μg to 1000 μg of active compound. The overall daily dose with an aerosol will be within the range 100 μg to 10 mg. Administration may be several times daily, for example 2, 3, 4 or 8 times, giving for example, 1, 2 or 3 doses each time.

Example 112
4-(3,4-Difluoro-phenyl)-7-fluoro-2-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)-quinazoline
Step A: 7-Fluoro-1H-quinazoline-2,4-dione

2-Amino-4-fluoro-benzoic acid (5.00 g, 32.2 mmol) in water (180 mL) and glacial acetic acid (3 mL) was warmed to 35° C. and slowly treated with a suspension of sodium cyanate (5.24 g, 80.6 mmol) in water (20 mL). Residual sodium cyanate was washed in with three additional portions of water (10 mL each). The reaction mixture was stirred an additional 30 min, after which sodium hydroxide (35 g, 880 mmol) was slowly added giving a white precipitate. Water (100 mL) was added, the reaction mixture was cooled to 0° C., and acidified to pH=4 with concentrated hydrochloric acid. The white solid was filtered, washed with water and dried in vacuo to afford 4.1 g (71%) of the desired product.


Step B: 4-Chloro-7-fluoro-2-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)-quinazoline

A solution of 7-fluoro-1H-quinazoline-2,4-dione (4.1 g, 23 mmol), dimethylpiperazine (6.2 mL, 46 mmol), and tripropylamine (8.7 mL, 46 mmol) in dioxane (55 mL), was cooled to 0° C. and treated with phosphorous oxychloride (6.4 mL, 68 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated to 100° C. for 1 h, cooled to ambient temperature and stirred an additional 16 h. Chloroform (about 200 mL) was added and the mixture was slowly poured over ice. After neutralizing to pH>10 with 25% NaOH (about 30 mL), the organic layer was separated. The aqueous layer was extracted again with chloroform, and the combined organic extracts were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. Silica gel chromatography (10% ethyl acetate in hexanes) afforded 3.7 g (58%) of the desired product as a light brown solid.


Step C: 4-(3,4-Difluoro-phenyl)-7-fluoro-2-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)-quinazoline

4-Chloro-7-fluoro-2-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)-quinazoline (0.400 g, 1.43 mmol), 3,4-difluoroboronic acid (0.270 g, 1.71 mmol), potassium fluoride (0.248 g, 4.27 mmol), palladium acetate (0.016 g, 0.071 mmol) and dicyclohexylphosphinobiphenyl (0.050 g, 0.14 mmol) were dissolved in THF (3 mL, degassed by bubbling with nitrogen for 30 min). The reaction mixture was placed under nitrogen, heated to 40° C. and stirred for 16 h. 5% NaOH (4 mL) and dichloromethane (10 mL) were added and the biphasic mixture was stirred about 15 min. Water was added and the mixture was extracted three times with dichloromethane. The combined organic extracts were dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated. Silica gel chromatography (0 to 10% methanol in dichloromethane:ethyl acetate (1:1)) afforded 0.415 g (81%) of the desired product as a yellow powder.


Step D: 4-(3,4-Difluoro-phenyl)-7-fluoro-2-(4-methyl-piperazin-1-yl)-quinazoline

(0.360 g, 1.01 mmol) in dichloroethane (4 mL) was treated with proton sponge (0.13 g, 0.60 mmol), 1-chloroethyl chloroformate (0.220 mL, 2.01 mmol) and heated to reflux. After about 2 h, the reaction mixture was concentrated to about 2 mL and immediately purified by silica gel chromatography (10-70% ethyl acetate in hexanes). The resultant carbamate intermediate was dissolved in methanol (10 mL) and heated to reflux for 16 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated and dried in a vacuum oven at 40° C. to afford 0.290 g (76%) the title compound as a light yellow powder.

5-HT3A Receptor Binding


Radioligand binding studies can be performed according to Wong, D. T., D. W. Robertson, and L. R. Reid. (1989) Specific 3H-LY-278584 binding to 5-HT3 recognition sites in rat cerebral cortex. European Journal of Pharmacology, 166:1070-110, with some modifications. Briefly, approximately 70 mg/96well plate of frozen cell paste expressing human 5-HT3A receptors was homogenized using a Brinkman Polytron model PT3000 (setting 15,000 rpm, 15 seconds) in 50 mM Tris HCl buffer pH 7.4 containing 2 mM MgCl2. The homogenate was centrifuged for ten minutes at 40,000 g, washed and recentrifuged. The final pellet was resuspended in 20 mM Tris HCl buffer pH 7.4 at 37 degrees Celsius containing 154 mM NaCl (3.5 mgs/mL). Incubations were initiated by the addition of tissue homogenate to wells of 96 well plates containing 3H-LY-278584 (1 nM, final concentration) and varying concentrations of test compound, buffer or 10 uM MDL-72222 in a final volume of 250 μl. Non-specific binding was defined as the radioactivity remaining in the presence of a saturating concentration of MDL-72222. After a 60 minute incubation at 37° C., assay samples were filtered onto GF/B filtermats presoaked in 0.5% polyethylenimine, using a Skatron cell harvester (Molecular Devices) and washed with ice-cold 50 mM Tris buffer pH 7.4 at 4 degrees Celsius. Radioactivity was quantified by liquid scintillation counting (Betaplate, Wallac Instruments). The IC50 value (concentration at which 50% inhibition of specific binding occurs) was calculated by linear regression of the concentration-response data. Ki values were calculated according to Cheng & Prusoff, where Ki═IC50/(1+(L/Kd)), where L is the concentration of the radioligand used in the experiment and the Kd value is the dissociation constant for the radioligand (determined previously by saturation analysis).


All of the title compounds of the examples were tested and at least one stereoisomer of each such compound exhibited a binding affinity for the human norepinephrine transporter (hNET) receptor, measured as percent inhibition at a concentration of 1 μM, of no less than 50% and up to 100%. At least one stereoisomer of each such compound exhibited a binding affinity for the hNET receptor, measured as percent inhibition at a concentration of 1 μM, of no less than 50% and up to 100%.


The ability of the compounds of this invention to bind to the hNET, hSERT, or the 5HT3 receptor can be determined using conventional radioligand receptor binding assays. The receptors can be heterologously expressed in cell lines and experiments conducted in membrane preparations from those cell lines using procedures. IC50 concentrations can be determined by nonlinear regression of concentration-dependent reduction in specific binding. The Cheng-Prussoff equation can be used to convert the IC50 to Ki concentrations.
