Abstract

Disclosed are quinoline carboxamide and quinoline carbonitrile compounds of formula (I) wherein ring A, RQ, -L-, R1, n, R2, and R3 are as defined in the specification. The compounds are useful as non-competitive metabotropic glutamate receptor 2 (mGluR2) antagonists, or mGluR2 negative allosteric modulators (NAMs), and in methods of treating diseases or disorders in which the mGluR2-NAM receptor is involved, such as Alzheimer's disease, cognitive impairment, schizophrenia and other mood disorders, pain disorders and sleep disorders. Examples of a compound of formula (I) are: 4-(4-fluorophenyl)-7-((3-methyl-2,5-dioxoimidazolidin-1-yl)methyl)quinoline-2-carboxamide 7-[(2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl)methyl]-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)quinoline-2-carboxamide Ethyl-1-{[2-carbamoyl-4-(4-fluorophenyl)quinolin-7-yl]methyl}-3-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylate 7-[(4,4-dimethyl-2,6-dioxopiperidin-1-yl)methyl]-4-(4-fluorophenyl)quinoline-2-carbonitrile dulators (NAMs), and in methods of treating diseases or disorders in which the mGluR2-NAM receptor is involved, such as Alzheimer's disease, cognitive impairment, schizophrenia and other mood disorders, pain disorders and sleep disorders. Examples of a compound of formula (I) are: 4-(4-fluorophenyl)-7-((3-methyl-2,5-dioxoimidazolidin-1-yl)methyl)quinoline-2-carboxamide 7-[(2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl)methyl]-4-(4-methoxyphenyl)quinoline-2-carboxamide Ethyl-1-{[2-carbamoyl-4-(4-fluorophenyl)quinolin-7-yl]methyl}-3-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylate 7-[(4,4-dimethyl-2,6-dioxopiperidin-1-yl)methyl]-4-(4-fluorophenyl)quinoline-2-carbonitrile

Description

- 1 – TITLE OF THE INVENTION INE CARBOXAMIDE AND QUINOLINE CARBONITRILE DERIVATIVES AS mGluR2-NEGATIVE ALLOSTERIC TORS, COMPOSITIONS, AND THEIR USE FIELD OF THE INVENTION The invention is directed to certain quinoline carboxamide and quinoline itrile derivatives, their salts, pharmaceutical compositions comprising them and their use in therapy of the human body. The quinoline amide derivatives of the invention tropic glutamate receptor 2 (mGluR2 ) modulators, and hence are useful in the treatment of Alzheimer’s Disease and other diseases mediated by the mGluR2 receptor.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Alzheimer’s Disease is a common neurodegenerative disease affecting the elderly, resulting in progressive memory impairment, loss of language and visuospatial skills, and behavior deficits. tion of metabotropic glutamate receptor 2, which is prevalent in the cortex and hippocampus and regulates the release of the brain's major excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate at key neural synapses has been demonstrated to have a major role in ive sing. r, modulation of mGluR2 improves cognitive performance in preclinical species (Higgins,G.A. et al. (2004) Pharmacological manipulation of mGlu2 receptors influences cognitive mance in the rodent. Neuropharmacology 46, 907-917).
The metabotropic glutamate receptors are known to contain one or more allosteric sites, which may alter the affinity with which glutamate and other mGluR ligands bind to the primary binding or teric sites. As the orthosteric binding site is highly conserved between all of the known metabotropic glutamate receptors, functional ivity may best be achieved through allosteric interaction with the receptor.
Certain substituted quinoline carboxamides and quinoline carbonitriles are known in the art. See, for example, US Patent Application No. 2008/0188521, WO2007/038865, WO 1996/13500, each disclosing compounds as leukotriene inhibitors, and Canadian Patent Application No. 1, disclosing compounds as leukotriene and SRS-A inhibitors. There remains a need in the art for novel compounds that are effective as non-competitive mGluR2 tors, and/or mGluR2 negative allosteric modulators (NAMs). - 2 – SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention provides certain novel substituted quinoline carboxamide and quinoline carbonitrile derivatives, which are collectively or individually ed to herein as "compound(s) of the invention," as described herein. The compounds of the invention are useful as non-competitive mGluR2 antagonists, or mGluR2 negative allosteric modulators (NAMs), and in methods of treating a patient (preferably a human) for diseases or ers in which the mGluR2-NAM receptor is involved, such as Alzheimer's disease, cognitive impairment, schizophrenia and other mood disorders, pain ers and sleep disorders, by administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the invention, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. The invention is also directed to pharmaceutical compositions which include an effective amount of a compound of the invention, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and a pharmaceutically able carrier, and the use of the compounds and pharmaceutical compositions of the invention for the manufacture of ments for the treatment of such diseases.
DETAILED PTION OF THE INVENTION In a first aspect, the invention provides a compound selected from the group consisting of: - 3 – , , , , and , or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of said compound.
In a further aspect, the invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a compound or ceutically acceptable salt of the first aspect of the ion, and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

In the Schemes below, R1 corresponds to the moiety shown in the various embodiments of the compounds of the invention, including in Formula (I). Compounds of the invention may be ed as outlined in Schemes A-G. Preparation of key intermediate A-9 is described in Scheme A below. 7-Methylquinoline A-1 can be converted to 7-methylquinolinecarbonitrile A-2 by oxidation followed by nucleophilic attack of cyanide on the activated N-oxide. r ion of A-2 followed by treatment with POCl3 yields 4-chloromethylquinolinecarbonitrile A-3. Metal catalyzed coupling introduces group R1 to give A-5, which can then be brominated at the benzylic position giving A-6. Bromide A-6 can be dislplaced by nucleophile A-7 in the presence of base in a polar solvent to yield A-8. The nitrile in A-8 can subsequently be yzed to primary amide A-9 using basic peroxide or under acidic conditions.

Microwave irradiation of G-2 followed by treatment with POCl3 yields fluorochloromethylquinolinecarboxylate G-4. Metal catalyzed coupling introduces group R1 to give G-5, which can then be brominated at the benzylic position giving G-6. e G-6 can be dislplaced by succinimide in the presence of base in a polar solvent to yield G-7. Hydrolysis of the ester and subsequent coupling with ammonium ide yields primary amide G-9.

Antagonist constants are determined as follows. The compounds of the present invention were tested in a fluorescence laser imaging plate reader based assay. This assay is a common onal assay to monitor Ca2+ mobilization in whole cells expressing recombinant receptor coupled with a cuous G-protein. CHO dhfr- cells stably expressing recombinant human mGluR2 and Gα16 loaded with Fluo-4 AM (Invitrogen, Carlsbad CA) are treated with various concentrations of nists of compounds and the Ca2+ response is monitored on a FLIPR384 (Molecular Devices, ale CA) for agonist activity. Then 2,500 nM glutamate is added and the nist response is monitored. The maximum calcium response at each concentration of compound for agonist or antagonist were plotted as dose responses and the curves were fitted with a four parameter logistic equation giving IC50 and Hill cient using the iterative non linear curve fitting software ADA (Merck & Co). In - 172 – particular, the compounds of the es shown in the tables above had activity in antagonizing the mGluR2 receptor in the aforementioned assays, with an IC50 of less than about 700 nM, indicating their activity as antagonists of mGluR2 function.
