- OXAZOLOBENZIMIDAZOLE DERIVATIVES
-
The present invention is directed to oxazolobenzimidazole derivatives which are potentiators of metabotropic glutamate receptors, particularly the mGluR2 receptor, and which are useful in the treatment or prevention of neurological and psychiatric disorders associated with glutamate dysfunction and diseases in which metabotropic glutamate receptors are involved. The invention is also directed to pharmaceutical compositions comprising these compounds and the use of these compounds and compositions in the prevention or treatment of such diseases in which metabotropic glutamate receptors are involved.

- On the Mechanism of the Carbodesilylation of 4- or 5-Substituted 2-(Trimethylsilyl)pyridines
-
An "ylide mechanism" is proposed for the carbodesilylation of 2-(trimethylsilyl)pyridines with benzaldehyde.In contrast, 3- and 4-(trimethylsilyl)pyridines, react only in the presence of a base catalyst via pyridyl anions with electrophiles.The rates of the uncatalyzed carbodesilylation reactions of 4-substituted 2-(trimethylsilyl)pyridines 2 with benzaldehyde correlate very well with the resonance parameters of the substituents ?0R, whereas the rates of 5-substituted 2-(trimethylsilyl)pyridines 7 correlate with the inductive substituent parameters ?1 in the Taft equation.This is to our knowledge the first direct determination of the resonance parameters ?0R.Key Words: Pyridines, substituted 2-(trimethylsilyl)-, synthesis of, carbodesilylation of / Carbodesilylation / Rate constants
