摘要
This Letter describes the one pot synthesis of tertiary carbinamine 3 and related analogs of brain penetrant BACE-1 inhibitors via the alkylation of the Schiff base intermediate 2. The methodology developed for this study provided a convenient and rapid means to explore the P1 region of these types of inhibitors, where the P1 group is installed in the final step using a one-pot two-step protocol. Further SAR studies led to the identification of 10 which is twofold more potent in vitro as compared to the lead compound. This inhibitor was characterized in a cisterna magna ported rhesus monkey model, where significant lowering of CSF A beta 40 was observed. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
