Herein we describe the continued optimization of M4 positive allosteric modulators (PAMs) within the 5-amino-thieno[2,3-c]pyridazine series of compounds. In this letter, we disclose our studies on tertiary amides derived from substituted azetidines. This series provided excellent CNS penetration, which had been challenging to consistently achieve in other amide series. Efforts to mitigate high clearance, aided by metabolic softspot analysis, were unsuccessful and precluded this series from further consideration as a preclinical candidate. In the course of this study, we found that potassium tetrafluoroborate salts could be engaged in a tosyl hydrazone reductive cross coupling reaction, a previously unreported transformation, which expands the synthetic utility of the methodology.

A synthetic route towards 1-t-butoxycarbonyl-3-fluoro-3-methylpyrrolidine and 1-tbutoxycarbonyl 3-fluoro-3-methylazetidine, which are interesting building blocks for pharmaceutical compounds, is described. The key steps include a bromofluorination of appr
