The term C .8 cycloalkyl designates a monocyclic or bicyclic carbocycle having three to eight C-atoms, such as cyclopropyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, cycloheptyl and cyclooctyl. R1 and R2 may together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached form a 3-7 membered ring optionally containing one further heteroatom, such as aziridinyl, azetidinyl, pyrrolidinyl, piperidinyl, morpholinyl, thiomorpholinyl and piperazinyl.
Exemplary of organic acid addition salts according to the invention are those formed with maleic, fumaric, benzoic, ascorbic, succinic, oxalic, bis-methylenesalicylic, methanesulfonic, ethanedisulfonic, acetic, propionic, tartaric, salicylic, citric, gluconic, lactic, malic, mandelic, cinnamic, citraconic, aspartic, stearic, palmitic, itaconic, glycohc, p-aminobenzoic, glutamic, benzenesulfonic and theophylline acetic acids, as well as the 8-halotheophyllines, for example 8-bromotheophylline. Exemplary of inorganic acid addition salts according to the invention are those formed with hydrochloric, hydrobromic, sulfuric, sulfamic, phosphoric and nitric acids. The acid addition salts of the invention are preferably pharmaceutically acceptable salts formed with non-toxic acids.
The compounds of this invention may exist in unsolvated as well as in solvated forms with pharmaceutically acceptable solvents such as water, ethanol and the like. The solvated forms are considered equivalent to the unsolvated forms for the purposes of this invention.
Some of the compounds of the present invention contain chiral centres and such compounds exist in the form of isomers (e.g. enantiomers or diastereomers). The invention includes all such isomers and any mixtures thereof including racemic mixtures.
Racemic forms can be resolved into the optical antipodes by known methods, for example, by separation of diastereomeric salts thereof with an optically active acid, and liberating the optically active amine compound by treatment with a base. Racemic compounds of the present invention can thus be resolved into their optical antipodes, e.g., by fractional crystallisation of d- or 1- (tartrates, mandelates or camphorsulphonate) salts for example. Another method for resolving racemates into the optical antipodes is based upon chromatography on an optically active matrix. The compounds of the present invention may also be resolved by the formation of diastereomeric derivatives or by enzymatic resolvation.
Additional methods for the resolution of optical isomers, known to those skilled in the art, may be used. Such methods include those discussed by J. Jaques, A. Collet and S. Wilen in "Enantiomers, Racemates, and Resolutions", John Wiley and Sons, New York (1981).
Optically active compounds can also be prepared from optically active starting materials.
The compounds of the invention may be prepared by:

wherein R, R1- R2, R13"16, X, Y and U are as previously defined.
The alkylation according to method 1) is conveniently performed in an organic solvent such as an alcohol or ketone with a suitable boiling point, preferably in the presence of an organic or inorganic base (potassium carbonate, diisopropylethylamine or triethylamine) at reflux temperature. Alternatively, the alkylation can be performed at a fixed temperature, which is different from the boiling point, in one of the above- mentioned solvents or in dimethyl formamide (DMF), dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) or Ν-methylpyrrolidin-2-one (NMP), preferably in the presence of a base such as those mentioned above. The alkylating derivatives of formula II have been described in the literature (e.g. Bøgesø, K.P. J Med. Chem. 26, 1983, 935-947; Bøgesø, K.P. et al. J. Med. Chem. 28, 1985, 1817-1828; Sommer, M.B. et al. J. Org. Chem. 55, 1990, 4822-4827 and references cited therein) and the amines of formula III are commercially available.
The reductive alkylation according to method 2) is performed by standard literature methods. The reaction can be performed in one step under standard reductive amination conditions using e.g. sodium cyanoborohydride or in two steps, e.g. by condensation of amines of formula III with a reagent of formula IN followed by reduction of the resulting imine with sodium cyanoborohydride or sodium borohydride. The ketones of formula IN can be prepared as described in the literature (e.g. Bøgesø, K.P. J. Med. Chem. 26, 1983, 935-947; Bøgesø, K.P. et al. J. Med. Chem. 28, 1985, 1817-1828; Sommer, M.B. et al. J. Org. Chem. 55, 1990, 4822-4827 and references cited therein).
The epoxide opening according to method 3) is conveniently performed in an organic solvent such as a suitably boiling alcohol or ketone using an excess of an amine of formula III at reflux temperature.
Epoxides of formula IN can be prepared by methods described in the literature (e.g. Ghosh, A.K. et al. Synthesis 5; 1997; 541-544; Palmer, M.J. et al; J Chem.Soc.Perkin Trans.l, 2002, 416 - 427).

A. Alkylating reagents
3-Amino-l-(benzo[l,3]dioxol-5-yl)-l-cyano-lH-indene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester A mixture of 2-chlorobenzonitrile (12.3 g) and benzo[l,3]dioxol-5-yl-acetonitrile (10 g) in dimethylformamide (25 mL) was added with stirring and cooling in an ice bath to potassium tert-butoxide (20.1 g) dissolved in dimethylformamide (50 mL) at such a rate that the temperature did not exceed 25 °C. After stirring for 0.5 h, methyl chloroacetate (11.1 g) was added in 10 min. After being stirred for 24h at rt, the mixture was poured into a mixture of 0.1 M HC1 (200 mL), heptane (30 mL) and toluene (15 mL). Stirring for 1 h, filtration and washing with water (2 x 50 mL), toluene (2 x 10 mL) and heptane (2 x 25 mL) afforded 79% of 3-Amino-l- benzo[l,3]dioxol-5-yl-l-cyano-lH-indene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester. 3ABenzo[l ,31 ' dioxol-5 -yl)-indan-l -one
A mixture of 3-amino-l-benzo[l,3]dioxol-5-yl-l-cyano-lH-indene-2-carboxylic acid methyl ester (10 g) and acetic acid (30 mL) were heated to 100 °C; 60% aqueous sulfuric acid (20 mL) was added with stirring during 30 min. The mixture was heated to 110 °C for 6 h, cooled to rt, extracted with toluene (50+10 mL), washed with water (3 x 100 mL), extracted with 0.1 M aqueous sodium hydroxide (100 + 20 mL), acidified with concentrated hydrochloric acid, extracted with toluene (25 + 10 mL), and filtrated through activated carbon. Removal of the toluene gave 80% of 1- (benzo[l,3]dioxol-5-yl)-3-oxo-indan-l-carboxylic acid. The acid was subsequently decarboxylated by heating to 100 °C in N-methylpyrrolidone (15 mL) for 1 h. After cooling, the solution was poured into water (40 mL) with efficient stirring. Filtration, washing with water (5 x 20 mL), dissolution in ethyl acetate (40 mL), filtration through activated carbon and removal of the ethyl acetate gave 80% of 3- (benzo[l,3]dioxol-5-yl)-indan-l-one.
Cis-3-(benzo[l ,3] dioxol-5-yl)-indan-l-ol

The mixture was stirred at rt for 1 h and then evaporated in vacuo. The resulting oil was treated with water and diethyl ether, and the organic phase was separated and washed with water and 0.1 N ΗC1, dried (MgSO4) and evaporated in vacuo to give cw-3-(benzo[l,3]dioxol-5-yl)-indan-l-ol as abrown oil (10 g).
