This investigation demonstrates that a series of biphenylenes can be easily prepared from their corresponding halobiphenyls by the cyclization of in situ generated 2′,3′-didehydro-2-lithiobiphenyls at low temperature. Two remarkable advantages of this synthetic method include 1) the lack of any need for transition-metal catalysts or reagents in the cyclization, and 2) the ability to obtain C1-functionalized products by treating the reaction intermediate 1-lithiobiphenylene with an electrophilic reagent. π-Extended derivatives, such as benzobiphenylenes, dibenzobiphenylene, linear/angular [3]phenylenes, and biphenyleno[2,3-b]biphenylenes, were synthesized similarly using suitable biaryls or teraryls.

The present invention pertains generally to the field of therapeutic compounds, and more specifically to certain aryl sulfonamides and related compounds (collectively referred to herein as "BPSAAA compounds"), as described herein, and including, for example, biphenyl-4-sulfonic acid (hydroxyalkyl-phenyl)-amides and related compounds. The present invention also pertains to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, and the use of such compounds and compositions, both in vitro and in vivo, in treatment and/or prevention, for example, of inflammation and/or joint destruction and/or bone loss; of disorders mediated by excessive and/or inappropriate and/or prolonged activation of the immune system; of, inflammatory and autoimmune disorders, for example, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, psoriatic arthritis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), atherosclerosis, inflammatory bowel disease, ankylosing spondylitis, and the like; of disorders associated with bone loss, such as bone loss associated with excessive osteoclast activation in rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis, cancer associated bone disease, Paget's disease and the like.
