2-AMINO-QUINAZOLINE DERIVATIVES USEFUL AS INHIBITORS OF B-SECRETASE (BACE)
CROSS REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS This application claims the benefit of U. S. Provisional Application Serial No. 60/599,811, filed on August 06,2004, U.S. Provisonal Application Serial No. 60/599,317, filed on August 06,2004, and U.S. Provisional Application Serial No. 60/599,810, filed on August 06, 2004, which are incorporated by reference herein in their entirety.
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention is directed to novel 2-amino-3,4-dihydro-quinazoline derivatives, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use in the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD), mild cognitive impairment, senility and / or dementia. The compounds of the present invention are inhibitors of ß -secretase, also known as ß -site amyloid cleaving enzyme, BACE, BACE1, Asp2, or memapsin2.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease associated with aging. AD patients suffer from cognition deficits and memory loss as well as behavioral problems such as anxiety. Over 90% of those afflicted with AD have a sporadic form of the disorder while less than 10% of the cases are familial or hereditary. In the United States, about 1 in 10 people at age 65 have AD while at age 85,1 out of every two individuals are affected with AD. The average life expectancy from the initial diagnosis is 7-10 years, and AD patients require extensive care either in an assisted living facility which is very costly or by family members. With the increasing number of elderly in the population, AD is a growing medical concern. Currently available therapies for AD merely treat the symptoms of the disease and include acetylcholinesterase inhibitors to improve cognitive properties as well as anxiolytics and antipsychotics to control the behavioral problems associated with this ailment.

The hallmark pathological features in the brain of AD patients are neurofibillary tangles which are generated by hyperphosphorylation of tau protein and amyloid plaques which form by aggregation of ß -amyloid1-42 (Aß 1-42) peptide. Aß 1-42 forms oligomers and then fibrils, and ultimately amyloid plaques. The fibrils are believed to be especially neurotoxic and may cause most of the neurological damage associated with AD. Agents that prevent the formation of Aß 1-42 have the potential to be disease-modifying agents for the treatment of AD. Aß 1-42 is generated from the amyloid precursor protein (APP), comprised of 770 amino acids. The N-terminus of Aß 1-42 is cleaved by ß -. secretase (BACE), and then 7-secretase cleaves the C-terminal end. In addition to Aß 1-42, #g-secretase also liberates Aß 1-40 which is the predominant cleavage product as along with Aß 1-38 and Aß 1-43. Thus, inhibitors of BACE would be expected to prevent the formation of Aß 1-42 and would be potential therapeutic agents in the treatment of AD.

52

WO 2006/024932 PCT/IB2005/002595
group is identified as it would be incorporated into the structure heading the table. Thus, for example in Table 1 wherein A1 is 1 -(cyclohexyl)-n-propyl-, the 1- and 3-carbon atoms of the n-propyl are bound to the nitrogen" and Q1 groups respectively, and the cyclohexyl is bound to the 1 -carbon of the n-propyl. Similarly, when Q1 is -C(O)-N(CH3)-, the carbony! is bound to A1 and the nitrogen of the methylamino is bound to the R2 group. Similarly, in Table 7, wherein R7 is -CH2-phenyl-, the carbon of the CH2- is bound to the L3 group and the phenyl is bound to the (L2)d group whereas when R7 is -phenyl-3-CH2-, the phenyl is bound to the L3 group and the carbon of the Chfe- is bound to the (L2)d group. Further, unless otherwise noted, any terminal substituent group is bound at the 1-position. Thus for example, 4-fluorophenyl corresponds to a phenyl group bound at the 1-position and substituted with a fluoro group at the 4-position, and could alternatively be defined as 1 -(4-fluorophenyl). Further, for compounds of formula
(II) listed in Tables 9-13, unless otherwise noted, thesubstituent shall be

53
assumed to be bound at the 1-position, unless otherwise noted, with the Q3 substituent bound as indicated by the numbering listed in the Q3 substituent column.

To prepare the pharmaceutical compositions of this invention, one or more compounds of the present invention as the active ingredient is intimately admixed with a pharmaceutical carrier according to conventional pharmaceutical compounding techniques, which carrier may take a wide variety of forms depending of the form of preparation desired for administration, e.g., oral or parenteral such as intramuscular. In preparing the compositions in oral dosage form, any of the usual pharmaceutical media may be employed; Thus, for liquid oral preparations, such as for example, suspensions, elixirs and solutions, suitable carriers and additives include water, glycols, oils, alcohols, flavoring agents, preservatives, coloring agents and the like; for solid oral preparations such as, for example, powders, capsules, caplets, gelcaps and tablets, suitable carriers and additives include starches, sugars, diluents, granulating agents, lubricants, binders, disintegrating agents and the like. Because of their ease in administration, tablets and capsules represent the most advantageous oral dosage unit form, in which case solid pharmaceutical carriers are obviously employed. If desired, tablets may be sugar coated or enteric coated by standard techniques. For parenterals, the carrier will usually comprise sterile water, through other ingredients, for example, for purposes such as aiding solubility or for preservation, may be included. Injectable suspensions may also be prepared, in which case appropriate liquid carriers, suspending agents and the like may be employed. The pharmaceutical compositions herein will contain, per dosage unit, e.g., tablet, capsule, powder, injection, teaspoonful and the like, an amount of the active ingredient necessary to deliver an effective dose as described above. The pharmaceutical compositions herein will contain, per unit dosage unit, e.g., tablet, capsule, powder, injection, suppository, teaspoonful and the like, of from about 0.1-1000 mg and may be given at a dosage of from about 0.1-500 mg/kg/day. The dosages, however, may be varied depending upon the requirement of the patients, the severity of the condition being treated and the compound being employed. The use of either daily administration or post-periodic dosing may be employed.
Preferably these compositions are in unit dosage forms from such as tablets, pills, capsules, powders, granules, sterile parenteral solutions or
110

WO 2006/024932 PCT/IB2005/002595
suspensions, metered aerosol or liquid sprays, drops, ampoules, autoinjector devices or suppositories; for oral parenteral, intranasat, sublingual or rectal administration, or for administration by inhalation or insufflation. Alternatively, the composition may be presented in a form suitable for once-weekly or once-monthly administration; for example, an insoluble salt of the active compound, such as the decanoate salt, may be adapted to provide a depot preparation for intramuscular injection. For preparing solid compositions such as tablets, the principal active ingredient is mixed with a pharmaceutical carrier, e.g. conventional tableting ingredients such as corn starch, lactose, sucrose, sorbitol, talc, stearic acid, magnesium stearate, dicalcium phosphate or gums, and other pharmaceutical diluents, e.g. water, to form a solid preformulation composition containing a homogeneous mixture of a compound of the present invention, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. When referring to these preformulation compositions as homogeneous, it is meant that the active ingredient is dispersed evenly throughout the composition so that the composition may be readily subdivided into equally effective dosage forms such as tablets, pills and capsules. This solid preformulation composition is then subdivided into unit dosage forms of the type described above containing from 0.1 to about 1000 mg, preferably, from about 0.1 to about 500 mg, of the active ingredient of the present invention. The tablets or pills of the novel composition can be coated or otherwise compounded to provide a dosage form affording the advantage of prolonged action. For example, the tablet or pill can comprise an inner dosage and an outer dosage component, the latter being in the form of an envelope over the former. The two components can be separated by an enteric layer which serves to resist disintegration in the stomach and permits the inner component to pass intact into the duodenum or to be delayed in release. A variety of material can be used for such enteric layers or coatings, such materials including a number of polymeric acids with such materials as shellac, cetyl alcohol and cellulose acetate.
The liquid forms in which the novel compositions of the present invention may be incorporated for administration orally or by injection include, aqueous solutions, suitably flavoured syrups, aqueous or oil suspensions, and flavoured emulsions with edible oils such as cottonseed oil, sesame oil, coconut oil or

The method of treating central nervous system disorders described in the present invention may also be carried out using a pharmaceutical composition comprising any of the compounds as defined herein and a pharmaceutically ¦acceptable carrier. The pharmaceutical composition may contain between about 0.1 mg and 1000 mg, preferably about 50 to 500 mg, of the compound, and may be constituted into any form suitable for the mode of administration selected. Carriers include necessary and inert pharmaceutical excipients, including, but not limited to, binders, suspending agents, lubricants, flavorants, sweeteners, preservatives, dyes, and coatings. Compositions suitable for oral administration include solid forms, such as pills, tablets, caplets, capsules (each including immediate release, timed release and sustained release formulations), granules, and powders, and liquid forms, such as solutions, syrups, elixirs, emulsions, and suspensions. Forms useful for parenteral administration include sterile solutions, emulsions and suspensions.
Advantageously, one or more of the compounds of the present invention may be administered in a single daily dose, or the total daily dosage may be administered in divided doses of two, three or four times daily. Furthermore, compounds for the present invention can be administered in intranasal form via topical use of suitable intranasal vehicles, or via transdermal skin patches well known to those of ordinary skill in that art. To be administered in the form of a transdermal delivery system, the dosage administration will, of course, be continuous rather than intermittent throughout the dosage regimen.
For instance, for oral administration in the form of a tablet or capsule, the active drug component can be combined with an oral, non-toxic pharmaceutically acceptable inert carrier such as ethanol, glycerol, water and the like. Moreover, when desired or necessary, suitable binders; lubricants, disintegrating agents and coloring agents can also be incorporated into the mixture. Suitable binders include, without limitation, starch, gelatin, natural sugars such as glucose or beta-lactose, corn sweeteners, natural and synthetic gums such as acacia, tragacanth

measuring the formation of Mca-S-E-V-N-L-NH2 from Mca-S-E-V-N-L-D-A-E-F-R-K(Dnp)-R-R-NH2, using a recombinant enzyme.
The test compound, reference compound or water (control) were added to a buffer containing 0.09 M sodium acetate (pH 4.5) and 0.25 ug BACE-1. Compound interference with the fluorimetric detection method due to autofluorescence was then checked by measurements at the wavelengths defined to evaluate the enzyme activity. Thereafter, the reaction was initiated by adding 7.5 uM of the substrate Mca-S-E-V-N-L-D-A-E-F-R-K(Dnp)-R-R-NH2 and the mixture was incubated for 60 min at 37°C. For control basal measurement, the substrate was omitted from the reaction mixture. Immediately after the incubation, the fluorescence intensity emitted by the reaction product Mca-S-E-V-N-L-NH2 was measured at X.ex=320 nm and Xem=405 nm using a microplate reader (Ultra, Tecan). The standard inhibitory reference compound was OM99-2, which was tested in each experiment at several concentrations to obtain an inhibition curve from which its IC50 value was calculated.
