Now it has been found that the present compounds of formula I are modulators for amyloid beta and thus, they may be useful for the treatment or prevention of a disease associated with the deposition of β-amyloid in the brain, in particular Alzheimer’s disease, and other diseases such as cerebral amyloid angiopathy, hereditary cerebral hemorrhage with amyloidosis, Dutch-type (HCHWA-D), multi-infarct dementia, dementia pugilistica and Down syndrome.
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia in later life.
Pathologically, AD is characterized by the deposition of amyloid in extracellular plaques and intracellular neurofibrillary tangles in the brain. The amyloid plaques are mainly composed of amyloid peptides (Aβ peptides) which originate from the β-Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) by a series of proteolytic cleavage steps. Several forms of APP have been identified of which the most abundant are proteins of 695, 751 and 770 amino acids length. They all arise from a single gene through differential splicing. The Aβ peptides are derived from the same domain of the APP.
Aβ peptides are produced from APP through the sequential action of two proteolytic enzymes termed β- and γ-secretase. β-Secretase cleaves first in the extracellular domain of APP just outside of the trans-membrane domain (TM) to produce a C-terminal fragment of APP containing the TM- and cytoplasmatic domain (CTFβ). CTFβ is the substrate for γ-secretase which cleaves at several adjacent positions within the TM to produce the Aβ peptides and the cytoplasmic fragment. Various proteolytic cleavages mediated by γ-secretase result in Aβ peptides of different chain length, e.g. Aβ38, Aβ40 and Aβ42. The latter one is regarded to be the more pathogenic amyloid peptide because of its strong tendency to form neurotoxic aggregates.
The β-secretase is a typical aspartyl protease. The γ-secretase is a proteolytic activity consisting of several proteins, its exact composition is incompletely understood. However, the presenilins are essential components of this activity and may represent a new group of atypical aspartyl proteases which cleave within the TM of their substrates and which are themselves polytopic membrane proteins. Other essential components of γ-secretase may be nicastrin and the products of the aph1 and pen-2 genes. Proven substrates for γ-secretase are the APP and the proteins of the Notch receptor family, however, γ-secretase has loose substrate specificity and may cleave further membrane proteins unrelated to APP and Notch.
The γ-secretase activity is absolutely required for the production of Aβ peptides. This has been shown both by genetic means, i.e., ablation of the presenilin genes and by low-molecular- weight inhibitory compounds. Since according to the amyloid hypothesis for AD the production and deposition of Aβ is the ultimate cause for the disease, it is thought that selective and potent inhibitors of γ-secretase will be useful for the prevention and treatment of AD.
An alternative mode of treatment is the modulation of the γ-secretase activity which results in a selective reduction of the Aβ42 production. This will result in an increase of shorter Aβ isoforms, such as Aβ38, Aβ37 or others, which have reduced capability for aggregation and plaque formation, and are less neurotoxic. Compounds which show this effect on modulating γ- secretase activity include certain non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and related analogues (Weggen et al. Nature, 414 (2001) 212-16).
Thus, the compounds of this invention will be useful for the treatment or prevention of a disease associated with the deposition of β-amyloid in the brain, in particular Alzheimer’s disease, and other diseases such as cerebral amyloid angiopathy, hereditary cerebral hemorrhage with amyloidosis, Dutch-type (HCHWA-D), multi-infarct dementia, dementia pugilistica and Down syndrome.

Appropriate reaction conditions for the individual reaction steps are known to a person skilled in the art. The reaction sequence is not limited to the one displayed in the schemes, however, depending on the starting materials and their respective reactivity the sequence of reaction steps can be freely altered.
Starting materials are either commercially available or can be prepared by methods analogous to the methods given below, by methods described in the examples, or by methods known in the art.
Scheme 1 NH a hetaryl II (R ) (R ) hetaryl II m d (R ) hetaryl I (R ) hetaryl I The present compounds of formula I and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts can be prepared by coupling of amines of general formula 2 and halides of general formula 3 (see Scheme 1).
This reaction can be accomplished using generally known procedures, e.g. displacement reactions under catalytic conditions (like e.g. palladium(0) or copper(II) catalysis) or under thermal conditions or under basic conditions.

After deprotection with e.g. trifluoro acetic acid, the piperidines 6 can be coupled with a hetaryl I halides of formula 7 to provide compounds of formula I.

The reductive amination can be accomplished by methods known to one skilled in the art of organic synthesis, for example by heating the amine and the ketone in an appropriate solvent (e.g. toluene, dichloroethane, THF) possibly in the presence of an acid (e.g. acetic acid, tetraisopropyl-orthotitanate) and reduction of the intermediary imine with an appropriate reducing agent (e.g. sodium triacetoxyborohydride, sodium cyanoborohydride, sodium borohydride, hydrogen in the presence paladium on charcoal).

Anilines of general formula 9 can be first converted to their corresponding trialkylphosphazenes 11 by reaction with trialkyldihalophosphorane (e.g. dichlorotrimethylphosphorane, prepared by reaction of trimethylphosphine with hexachloroethane in THF or dichloromethane) and an organic amine base (e.g. triethylamine, di-isopropylethylamine) in a suitable solvent (e.g. THF, dichloromethane). Ketones of general formula 8 or 10 are then added to the reaction mixture containing the in situ prepared phosphazenes 11 and the mixture is heated. The resulting imine/enamines (enamines maybe formed for compounds with a bridge Y between atoms a and b) 12 or 13 are then treated with an appropriate reducing agent (e.g. sodium triacetoxyborohydride, sodium cyanoborohydride, sodium borohydride, decaborane, borane-THF complex, hydrogen in the presence palladium on charcoal) in the appropriate solvent (THF, DCM, MeOH and mixtures thereof) with or without acid catalysis (e.g. acetic acid) at ambient or elevated temperatures to provide compounds of general formula 5 or I (for R3 being hydrogen).

Triazolopyridines of general formula 5a can alternatively be constructed by converting amines of general formula 14 into their corresponding isothiocyanates 15 (e.g. by reaction with thiosphosgene or 1,1’-thiocarbonyldiimidazole in dichloromethane in the presence of an organic or aqueous inorganic base) and reaction with amines of general formula 4 (see Scheme 5). The resulting thioureas 16 can be activated by alkylation with iodomethane and subsequently cyclised to triazolopyridines 5a by strong heating (> 130°C) in the presence of a suitably functionalised hydroxylamine derivative e.g. O-(trimethlysilyl)-hydroxylamine in a polar solvent e.g. dimethylacetamide.

Activation of the sulphur group by alkylation (e.g. iodomethane in DMF at elevated temperatures) allows its displacement by an azide (e.g. sodium azide in DMF at elevated temperatures) to afford azidoguanidine 22. Staudinger reduction with trimethylphosphine generates an intermediate phosphazene 23 which cyclises on heating to generate triazolopyridine 5b.
Anilines of general formula 9, which can be used as starting materials for the preparation of compounds of formula I may be prepared as described in the following schemes.

Anilines 9a in which heteroaryl II is an annelated triazole moiety (see Scheme 7) can be constructed from the corresponding amino derivatives 14, which are either commercially available or can be obtained from the corresponding halides 24 by palladium catalyzed Suzuki coupling with boronic acids or boronic esters (e.g. pinacol ester). Amines 14 can be reacted with ethoxycarbonyl isothiocyanate to yield thiourea derivatives 25 which undergo a cyclization reaction upon treatment with hydroxylamine in the presence of a base under liberation of carbon dioxide to yield annelated triazoles 9a (as e.g. described by M. Nettekoven et al., Synthesis 2003, 11, 1649-1652).

Alternatively the order of steps in Scheme 7 can be changed (see Scheme 8). Halides 24 (which are either commercially available or can be synthesized by methods known in the art) can be reacted with ethoxycarbonyl isothiocyanate followed by treatment with hydroxylamine to provide annelated triazoles 27. These halides can then be subjected e.g. to palladium catalyzed Suzuki coupling with boronic acids or copper (I) catalyzed coupling with phenols (e.g. according to D. Maiti et al. JOC 2010, 75, 1791-1794) to provide substituted aminotriazoles 9a.
Scheme 9 H N H N H , Pd/C (R ) (R ) 9a 9b A is or , B is or , Compounds 9a can be hydrogenated with palladium on charcoal as catalyst to yield the corresponding partly saturated compounds 9b (see Scheme 9). Depending on the nature of ring A this reaction may require elevated temperature or hydrogen pressure or the presence of acid (e.g.
HCl). Alternatively compounds 9a can be reduced with metals e.g. magnesium in alcoholic solution (like ethanol) with or without activation of the metal (e.g. activation with catalytic amounts of iodine).
Scheme 10 (R ) (R ) C represents a carbocyclic ring, preferrably Anilines 9c in which heteroaryl II is a an annelated thiazole (see Scheme 10) can be prepared by condensation of -bromoketones 28 with thiourea (for example by heating in an appropriate solvent, e.g. ethanol). -Bromoketones are either commercially available or readily prepared by methods known to one skilled in the art of organic synthesis, e.g. by reaction of an appropriate ketone with bromine in chloroform.
Halides of general formula 3, which can be used as starting materials for the preparation of compounds of formula I may be prepared as described in the following schemes.
Scheme 11 (R ) (R ) H N X tBuONO N N N The halotriazole 3 can be prepared from the aniline 9 (see Scheme 11) via formation of the corresponding diazonium salt and subsequent decomposition in the presence of a halide source like copper (I) halide or hydrogenhalide (X = chlorine or bromine).

Baumann et al., WO2009103652 by reduction of trichloro-pyrimidines 29 to give dichloro-derivative 30, e.g. by treatment with zink in aquous ammonia at 0 C. Subsequently, the 4-chloro substituent of 30 can be replaced in a nucleophilic substitution reaction (like reaction with a Grignard reagent R MgX, e.g. benzylmagnesium chloride in tetrahydrofuran at -80 to +20 C) or, by a metal catalyst assisted displacement reaction (e.g. using palladium acetate, 2- (dicyclohexylphosphino-biphenyl, tetrahydrofuran, microwave oven, 30 min, 200 C).
Alternatively, one of the reactive chloro atoms of 29 is first replaced by a group R , followed by 2’’’ replacement of a second chloro-substituent in the intermediate 31 by a group R , to afford 3a.
Scheme 13 Cl N Cl Cl N Cl Cl N R MeO O OH R is –(CH ) -phenyl, optionally substituted by halogen Halides 3b in which heteroaryl II is a pyrimidine (see Scheme 13) can be prepared from 2,6- dichloro-pyrimidinecarboxylic acid methyl ester by reaction with e.g. methylmagnesium chloride in THF at -78°C to 0°C which provides 2-(2,6-dichloro-pyrimidinyl)-propanol.
The chloride in 4-position of 2-(2,6-dichloro-pyrimidinyl)-propanol can be replaced by a substituent R for example in a Suzuki coupling reaction with an aryl/ heteroaryl boronic acid/ ester R -B(OH/OR’) in the presence of a palladium catalyst and a base (e.g. sodium carbonate) in e.g. dimethoxyethane as solvent to provide chloride 3b. Alternatively the 4-chloro substituent can be reacted with an organo zinc chloride R ZnCl, e.g. benzylzinc chloride in the presence of a palladium catalyst to provide chloride 3b. To accomplish these modifications it might be necessary to protect the alcohol group of 2-(2,6-dichloro-pyrimidinyl)-propanol prior to the second step e.g. by protection with trimethylsilyl group which can be introduced e.g. with bis(trimethylsilyl)acetamide and can be cleaved after the modifications with e.g. p-TsOH in THF/water.
Ketones of general formula 8, which can be used as starting materials for the preparation of compounds of formula I may be prepared as described in the following schemes.
Scheme 14 10a 1 (R ) PG-NH hetaryl I O O O O HO OH Mannich reaction of the ketone in scheme 14 with formaldehyde and an appropriate amine PG- NH yields the ketone 10a. The protection group of 10a can be changed as appropriate (e.g. from benzyl to boc-protection). Condensation of 2,5-dimethoxy-tetrahydrofurane with the biacid in the presence of an appropriate amine PG-NH provides the ketone 10b. Deprotection of 10b or 10a and coupling with an appropriate hetaryl I halide under basic, thermal or metal catalyzed conditions yields the ketone 8.
Amines of general formula 2, which can be used as starting materials for the preparation of compounds of formula I may be prepared as described in the following schemes.
Scheme 15 (R ) (R ) hetaryl I hetaryl I HN O NH (R ) hetaryl I PG b The ketones 8 can be easily converted into the amines 2a (R = H) via reductive amination with ammonia, or hydroxyl amine or other suitable amine precursor (see Scheme 15). Preparation of amine 2b (R = Me) starts with the Grignard addition of a methyl grignard reagent to the ketone 10a. The resulting tertiary alcohol undergoes a Ritter reaction with acetonitrile under strong acidic conditions. Saponification of the amide and changing of the protection group to the hetaryl I group as previously described in scheme 14 yields the amine 2b.
Scheme 16 NHBoc NH NHBoc + N N Y S S d NHBoc NHBoc H N N N N N S b S Amines 2c in which heteroaryl I is a 3-methyl-[1,2,4]thiadiazole (see Scheme 15) can e.g. be prepared by palladium catalyzed coupling of 5-chloromethyl-[1,2,4]thiadiazole with piperidinyl-carbamic acid tert-butyl esters and subsequent cleavage of the Boc-protective group in the presence of an acid. Alternatively amines 2c can be prepared from the Boc- protected aminopiperidines by reaction with an isothiocyanate source like benzoylisothiocyanate, metal isothiocyanate, thiophosgen or an activated thiourea derivative to give the corresponding thiourea derivatives. Condensation with 1,1-dimethoxy-ethyl)-dimethyl-amine and subsequent cyclization with hydroxylamine-O-sufonic acid in the presence of a base like pyridine yields after deprotection the amines 2c.

Description of γ-secretase assay Cellular γ-secretase assay Human neuroglioma H4 cells overexpressing human APP were plated at 30,000 cells/well/200 µL in 96-well plates in IMDM media containing 10% FCS, 0.2 mg/L Hygromycin B and incubated for 2 hours at 37 °C, 5% CO prior to adding test compounds.
Compounds for testing were dissolved in 100% Me SO yielding in a 10 mM stock solution. Typically 12 µL of these solutions were further diluted in 1000 µL of IMDM media (w/o FCS). Subsequent 1:1 dilutions gave a ten point dose response curve. 100 µL of each dilution was added to the cells in 96-well plates. Appropriate controls using vehicle only and reference compound were applied to this assay. The final concentration of Me SO was 0.4%.
After incubation for 22 hours at 37 °C, 5% CO , 50 µL supernatant was transferred into round-bottom 96-well polypropylene plates for detection of Aβ42. 50 µL assay buffer (50 mM Tris/Cl, pH 7.4, 60 mM NaCl, 0.5% BSA, 1% TWEEN 20) was added to the wells followed by the addition of 100 µL of detection antibody (ruthenylated BAP15 0.0625 µg/mL in assay buffer). 50 µL of a premix of capture antibody (biotinylated 6E10 antibody, 1 µg/mL) and Steptavidin-coated magnetic beads (Dynal M-280, 0.125 mg/mL) were preincubated for 1 hour at room temperature before adding the assay plates. Assay plates were incubated on a shaker for 3 hours at room temperature and finally read in the Bioveris M8 Analyser according to the manufacturer’s instructions (Bioveris).
Toxicity of compounds was monitored by a cell viability test of the compound-treated cells using a colorimetric assay (CellTiter 96TM AQ assay, Promega) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Briefly, after removal of 50 µL cell culture supernatant for detection of Aβ42, 20 µL of 1x MTS/PES solution was added to the cells and incubated for 30 minutes at 37 °C, 5% CO . Optical density was then recorded at 490 nm.

The pharmaceutical preparations can be administered orally, e.g. in the form of tablets, coated tablets, dragées, hard and soft gelatine capsules, solutions, emulsions or suspensions. The administration can, however, also be effected rectally, e.g. in the form of suppositories, parenterally, e.g. in the form of injection solutions.
The compounds of formula I can be processed with pharmaceutically inert, inorganic or organic carriers for the production of pharmaceutical preparations. Lactose, corn starch or derivatives thereof, talc, stearic acids or its salts and the like can be used, for example, as such carriers for tablets, coated tablets, dragées and hard gelatine capsules. Suitable carriers for soft gelatine capsules are, for example, vegetable oils, waxes, fats, semi-solid and liquid polyols and the like. Depending on the nature of the active substance no carriers are, however, usually required in the case of soft gelatine capsules. Suitable carriers for the production of solutions and syrups are, for example, water, polyols, glycerol, vegetable oil and the like. Suitable carriers for suppositories are, for example, natural or hardened oils, waxes, fats, semi-liquid or liquid polyols and the like.
The pharmaceutical preparations can, moreover, contain preservatives, solubilizers, stabilizers, wetting agents, emulsifiers, sweeteners, colorants, flavorants, salts for varying the osmotic pressure, buffers, masking agents or antioxidants. They can also contain still other therapeutically valuable substances.
Medicaments containing a compound of formula I or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof and a therapeutically inert carrier are also an aspect of the present invention, as is a process for their production, which comprises bringing one or more compounds of formula I and/or pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts and, if desired, one or more other therapeutically valuable substances into a galenical administration form together with one or more therapeutically inert carriers.
In accordance with the invention compounds of formula I as well as their pharmaceutically acceptable salts are useful in the control or prevention of illnesses based on the inhibition of Aβ42 secretion, such as of Alzheimer’s disease.
The dosage can vary within wide limits and will, of course, have to be adjusted to the individual requirements in each particular case. In the case of oral administration the dosage for adults can vary from about 0.01 mg to about 1000 mg per day of a compound of general formula I or of the corresponding amount of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The daily dosage may be administered as single dose or in divided doses and, in addition, the upper limit can also be exceeded when this is found to be indicated.
