Definitions

  • EAA receptors excitatory amino acid receptors
  • Excitatory amino acid receptors are classified into two general types . Receptors that are directly coupled to the opening of cation channels in the cell membrane of the neurons are termed “ionotropic . " This type of receptor has been subdivided into at least three subtypes, which are defined by the depolarizing actions of the selective agonists N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) , ⁇ -amino-3 -hydroxy-5- methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid (AMPA) , and kainic acid (KA) .
  • the second general type of receptor is the G-protein or second messenger-linked "metabotropic" excitatory amino acid receptor.
  • This second type is coupled to multiple second messenger systems that lead to enhanced phosphoinositide hydrolysis, activation of phospholipase D, increases or decreases in cAMP formation, and changes in ion channel function.
  • Schoepp and Conn Trends in Pharmacol . Sci . , 14, 13 (1993) . Both types of receptors appear not only to mediate normal synaptic transmission along excitatory pathways, but also participate in the modification of synaptic connections during development and throughout life.
  • Schoepp, Bockaert, and Sladeczek Trends in Pharmacol . Sci . , 11, 508 (1990); McDonald and Johnson, Brain Research Reviews, 15, 41 (1990).
  • the metabotropic glutamate receptors are a highly heterogeneous family of glutamate receptors that are linked to multiple second-messenger pathways. Generally, these receptors function to modulate the presynaptic release of glutamate, and the postsynaptic sensitivity of the neuronal cell to glutamate excitation.
  • the metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR) have been pharmacologically divided into two subtypes. One group of receptors is positively coupled to phospholipase C, which causes hydrolysis of cellular phosphoinositides (PI) . This first group are termed Plunked metabotropic glutamate receptors.
  • the second group of receptors is negatively coupled to adenyl cyclase, which prevents the forskolin-stimulated accumulation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) .
  • cAMP cyclic adenosine monophosphate
  • Schoepp and Conn Trends Pharmacol . Sci . , 14, 13 (1993).
  • Receptors within this second group are termed cAMP-linked metabotropic glutamate receptors. Agonists of the cAMP-linked metabotropic glutamate receptors should be useful for the treatment of acute and chronic neurological conditions and psychiatric conditions .
  • (2S,3S,4S) -2- (carboxycyclopropyl) glycine (L- CCG-I) was recently described as a selective cAMP-linked metabotropic glutamate receptor agonist; however, at higher concentrations, this compound has activity at PI -linked metabotropic receptors.

  • United States Patent No. 5,958,960 discloses that certain 2-aminobicyclo [3.1.0] hexane-2 , 6-dicarboxylic acid derivatives are modulators of metabotropic glutamate function, in particular agonists or antagonists of glutamate at metabotropic glutamate receptors and as such are useful in the treatment of a neurological disorder or a psychartic disorder that has been linked to the excitatory amino acid receptors .
  • the present invention provides compounds that selectively affect the negatively coupled cAMP-linked metabotropic glutamate receptors. More specifically, the present invention relates to compounds of the formula
  • X is CH 2 , O, or NH
  • Y is O, S, N or H
  • A is a bond, 0, N, (1-lOC) alkyl, (2-10C) alkenyl or (2 -IOC) alkynyl;

(IS*, 2S*,4S*, 5R* , 6R*) -2- ert- Butoxycarbonylamino-4-hydroxy-bicyclo [3.1.0] hexane-2 , 6- dicarboxylic acid diethyl ester (0.30g, 0.84 mmol) was reacted with 1-naphthyl isocyanate (0.21g, 1.26 mmol) in step (a) . Purification of the desired intermediate was by PC-TLC (10% EtOAc/Hexane to 25% EtOAc/Hexane) with a 61% yield.
  • step (b) using LiOH for the ester hydrolysis, (IS*, 2S*,4S*, 5R*, 6R*) -2- tert-Butoxycarbonylamino-4- (naphthalen-1-ylcarbamoyloxy) -bicyclo [3.1.0] hexane-2 , 6- dicarboxylic acid diethyl ester (0.31g, 0.59 mmol) was converted to the Boc-protected di-acid. Purification of the desired intermediate was by PC-TLC (0-2 % AcOH in 50% EtOAc/Hexane) for a 61% yield (0.17g, 0.36 mmol). The Boc group was cleaved, giving the title compound in a 63% yield (O.O ⁇ g, 0.23 mmol) .
  • Example Bick The title compound was prepared by the two step procedure in Example Bick. (IS*, 2S*,4S*, 5R* , 6R*)-2-tert- Butoxycarbonylamino-4-hydroxy-bicyclo [3.1.0] hexane-2 , 6- dicarboxylic acid diethyl ester (0.25g, 0.70 mmol) was reacted with 2-naphthyl isocyanate (0.26g, 1.51 mmol) in step (a) . Purification of the desired intermediate was by PC-TLC (10% EtOAc/Hexane to 25% EtOAc/Hexane) with a 68% yield (0.25g, 0.47 mmol).
  • step (b) using LiOH for the ester hydrolysis, (IS*, 2S*,4S*, 5R* , 6R*)-2-tert- Butoxycarbonylamino-4- (naphthalen-2-ylcarbamoyloxy) - bicyclo [3.1.0] hexane-2, 6-dicarboxylic acid diethyl ester (0.28g, 0.53 mmol) was converted to the Boc-protected diacid followed by cleavage of the Boc group. The title compound was isolated using isoelectric point crystalization from H 2 0, pH 3 , in a 20% yield (0.04g, 0.11 mmol) .
