Abstract:
A process for the preparation of an oxirane, aziridine or cyclopropane of formula (I) wherein, X is oxygen, NR.sup.4 or CHR.sup.5 ; R.sup.1 is hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, heteroaromatic, heterocyclic or cycloalkyl; R.sup.2 is hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, heteroaromatic, CO.sub.2 R.sup.8, CHR.sup.14 NHR.sup.13, heterocyclic or cycloalkyl; or R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 join together to form a cycloalkyl ring; R.sup.3 is hydrogen, alkyl, aryl, heteroaromatic, CO.sub.2 R.sup.8, R.sup.8.sub.3 Sn, CONR.sup.8 R.sup.9 or trimethylsilyl; R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are, independently, alkyl, cycloalkyl, aryl, heteroaromatic, SO.sub.2 R.sup.8, SO.sub.3 R.sup.8, COR.sup.8, CO.sub.2 R.sup.8, CONR.sup.8 R.sup.9 or CN, or R.sup.4 can also be P(O)(aryl).sub.2 ; R.sup.8 and R.sup.9 are independently alkyl, aryl or arylalkyl; R.sup.13 and R.sup.14 are independently hydrogen, alkyl or aryl; the process comprising reacting a mixture of a compound of formula (II), wherein R.sup.1, R.sup.2 and X are as defined above, and a sulphide of formula SR.sup.6 R.sup.7, wherein R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 are independently alkyl, aryl or heteroaomatic, or R.sup.6 and R.sup.7 join together to form a cycloalkyl ring which optionally includes an additional heteroatom, with either (i) a metallocarbon obtainable by reacting an alkylmetal with a methane derivative of formula CHR.sup.3 X'X", wherein R.sup.3 is as defined above, and X' and X" are independently, a leaving group, or (ii) a metallocarbon obtainable by reacting a compound of formula (III), (wherein R.sup.3 may not be hydrogen) with a suitable organometallic or inorganic reagent.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a novel piperazinyl-propyl-pyrazole derivative, a method of its preparation and a pharmaceutically acceptable composition comprising the same. The novel piperazinyl-propyl-pyrazole derivative of the present invention has superior selective affinity for dopamine D4 receptor, can effectively inhibit psychotic behavior (cage climbing) induced by apomorphine, and has relatively low adverse effects in mouse rotarod test. Therefore, it can be developed as a therapeutic agent for the treatment and prevention of central nervous system (CNS) disorders, in particular, schizophrenia, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, depression, stress diseases, panic disorder, phobia, obsessive-compulsive disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder, cognitive disorder, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, anxiety, paraphrenia, mania, seizure disorder, personality disorder, migraine, drug addiction, alcohol addiction, obesity, eating disorder, and sleeping disorder.
