Recent clinical studies have demonstrated that dual orexin receptor antagonists (OX1R and OX2R antagonists or DORAs) represent a novel treatment option for insomnia patients. Previously we have disclosed several compounds in the diazepane amide DORA series with excellent potency and both preclinical and clinical sleep efficacy. Additional SAR studies in this series were enabled by the expansion of the acetonitrile-assisted, diphosgene-mediated 2,4-dichloropyrimidine synthesis to novel substrates providing an array of Western heterocycles. These heterocycles were utilized to synthesize analogs in short order with high levels of potency on orexin 1 and orexin 2 receptors as well as in vivo sleep efficacy in the rat.

New dipeptidyl peptidase IV inhibitors were designed based on Alogliptin using a scaffold-hopping strategy. All of the compounds constructed on a thienopyrimidine scaffold demonstrated good inhibition and selectivity for DPP-IV. Compound 10d exhibited subnanomolar (IC50 = 0.33 nM) DPP-IV inhibitory activity, good in vivo efficacy and an acceptable pharmacokinetic profile. A pharmacokinetic-driven optimization of 10d may lead to a new class of clinical candidate DPP-IV inhibitors.

Page/Page column 19-20, (2008/12/05)
The present invention is directed to substituted diazepan compounds which are antagonists of orexin receptors, and which are useful in the treatment or prevention of neurological and psychiatric disorders and diseases in which orexin 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 orexin receptors are involved.
