(an Said reaction may be performed in a reaction-inert solvent such as, for example, methylisobutyl keton, N,N-dimethylacetamide or N,N dimethylformamide, in the presence of a suitable base such as, for example, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate or triethylamine, and optionally in the presence of potassium iodide.
In this and the following preparations, the reaction products may be isolated from the reaction medium and, if necessary, further purified according to methodologies generally known in the art such as, for example, extraction, crystallization, distillation, IO trituration and chromatography.
The compounds of formula (I) can also be converted into each other following art-known procedures of functional group transformation.
The compounds of formula (I) may also be converted to the corresponding N-oxide forms following art-known procedures for converting a trivalent nitrogen into its N-oxide form. Said N-oxidation reaction may generally be carried out by reacting the starting material of formula (I) with 3-phenyl-2-(phenylsulfonyl)oxaziridine or with an appropriate organic or inorganic peroxide. Appropriate inorganic peroxides comprise, for example, hydrogen peroxide, alkali metal or earth alkaline metal peroxides, e.g.

For example, diastereoisomers can be separated by physical _g-methods such as selective crystallization or chromatographic techniques, e.g, counter current distribution, liquid chromatography and the like methods. Enantiomers can be obtained from racemic mixtures by first converting said racemic mixtures with suitable resolving agents such as, for example, chiral acids, to mixtures of diastereomeric salts S or compounds; then physically separating said mixtures of diastereomeric salts or compounds by, for example, selective crystallization or chromatographic techniques, e.g. liquid chromatography and the like methods; and finally converting said separated diastereomeric salts or compounds into the corresponding enantiomers. Pure stereochemically isomeric forms may also be obtained from the pure stereochemically isomeric forms of the appropriate intermediates and starting materials, provided that the intervening reactions occur stereospecifically.
An alternative manner of separating the enantiomeric forms of the compounds of formula (I) and intermediates involves liquid chromatography, in particular liquid 1S chromatography using a chiral stationary phase.
Some of the intermediates and starting materials are known compounds and may be commercially available or may be prepared according to art-known procedures.
Glycine is an amino acid neurotransmitter in the central and peripheral nervous system, both at inhibitory and excitatory synapses. These distinct functions of glycine are mediated by two types of receptor, each of which is associated with a different class of glycine transporter. The inhibitory actions of glycine are mediated by glycine receptors that are sensitive to the convulsant alkaloid strychnine, and are therefore referred to as 2S 'strychnine-sensitive.' Strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors are found predominantly in the spinal cord and brainstem.
Glycine functions in excitatory transmission by modulating the actions of glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the nervous system (Johnson and Ascher, Nature, 325, S29-S31 (1987); Fletcher et al., Glvcine Transmission, (Otterson and Storm-Mathisen, eds., 1990), pp. 193-219). Specifically, glycine is an obligatory co-agonist at the class of glutamate receptor termed N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor. NMDA receptors are widely distributed throughout the brain, with a particularly high density in the cerebral cortex and hippocampal formation.

Transporters take up neurotransmitter from the synapse, thereby regulating the concentration and term of neurotransmitter in the synapse, which together determine the magnitude of synaptic transmission. By preventing the spread of neurotransmitter to neighboring synapses, trarlsporters maintain the fidelity of synaptic transmission. Last, by re-uptake of released transmitter into the presynaptic terminal, transporters allow for transmitter reutilization. Neurotransmitter transport is dependent on extracellular sodium and the voltage difference across the membrane. Under specific conditions, for example during a seizure, transporters can function in reverse, releasing neurotransmitter in a calciumindependent non-exocytotic manner (Attwell et al., Neuron, 11, 401-407 (1993)). Modulation of neurotransmitter transporters thus provides a means for modifying synaptic activity, which provides useful therapy for the treatment of disturbances of the central and peripheral nervous system.
Molecular cloning has revealed the existence of two classes of glycine transporters, termed GIyT-1 and GIyT-2. GIyT-1 is found predominantly in the forebrain, and its distribution corresponds to that of glutamatergic pathways and NMDA receptors (Smith, et al., Neuron. 8, 927-935 (1992)). At least three splice variants of GIyT-1 are known, namely GIyT-la, GIyT-lb and GIyT-lc (Kim, et al., Molecular Pharmacolo y, 45, 617 (1994)), each of which displays a unique distribution in the brain and peripheral tissues. GIyT-2, in contrast, is found predominantly in the brainstem and spinal cord, and its distribution corresponds closely to that of strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors (Liu et al., J Biological Chemistry , 268,. 22802-22808 (1993); Jursky and Nelson, Neurochemistry, 64, 10261033 (1995)). Thus, one can expect that by regulating the synaptic levels of glycine, GIyT-1 and GIyT-2 selectively modulate the activity of NMDA receptors and strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors, respectively.
Compounds that inhibit or activate glycine transporters would thus be expected to alter receptor function, and provide therapeutic benefits in a variety of disease states. Thus, inhibition of GIyT-2 could be used to diminish the activity of neurons having strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors via increasing synaptic levels of glycine, and so diminish the transmission of pain-related (i.e., nociceptive) information in the spinal cord, which has been shown to be mediated by these receptors. Yaksh, Pain, 37, 111-123 (1989). Additionally, enhancing inhibitory glycinergic transmission through strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors in the spinal cord can be used to decrease muscle hyperactivity, which is useful in treating diseases or conditions associated with increased muscle contraction, such as spasticity, myacIonus, and epilepsy {Truong et al., Movement Disorders, 3 , 77-87 (1988); Becker, I~ASEB J, 4 2767-2774 (1990)).
Spasticity that can be treated via modulation of glycine receptors is associated with epilepsy, stroke, head trauma, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, dystonia, and other conditions of illness and injury of the nervous system.

NMDA receptors are involved in memory and Teaming (Rison and Stanton, Neurosci.
Biobehav. Rev., 19, 533 552 (1995); Danysz at al., Behavioral Pharmacol , 6, (1995)); and decreased function of NMDA-mediated neurotransmission appears to contribute to the symptoms of schizophrenia (Olney and Farber, Archives General Psvchiatrv, 52, 998-1007 (1996). Thus, agents that inhibit GIyT-1 and thereby increase glycine activation of NMDA receptors can be used as novel antipsychotics and anti-dementia agents, and to treat other diseases in which cognitive processes are impaired, such as attention deficit disorders and organic brain syndromes.
Conversely, over-activation of NMDA receptors has been implicated in a number of disease states, in particular the neuronal death associated with stroke, head trauma and possibly neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, mufti-infarct dementia, AIDS
dementia, Huntington's disease, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis or other conditions in which neuronal cell death occurs. Coyle & Puttfarcken, Science, 262, 689-695 (1993); Lipton and- Rosenberg, New Engl. J. of Medicine, 330, 613-(1993); Choi, Neuron 1, 623-634 (1988). Thus, phamlacological agents that increase the activity of GIyT-1 will result in decreased glycine-activation of NMDA
receptors, which activity can be used to treat these and related disease states.
Similarly, drugs that directly block the glycine site on the NMDA receptors can be used to treat these and related disease states.
For administration purposes, the subject compounds may be formulated into various pharmaceutical compositions comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and, as active ingredient, a therapeutically effective amount of a novel compound of formula (I). To prepare the pharmaceutical compositions of this invention, an effective amount of the particular compound, in addition salx or in free acid or base form, as the active ingredient is combined in intimate admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, which may take a wide variety of forms depending on the form of preparation desired for administration. These pharmaceutical compositions are desirably in unitary dosage form suitable, preferably, for administration orally, percutaneously, or by parenteral injection. For example, in preparing the compositions in oral dosage form, any of the usual pharmaceutical media may be employed, such as, for example, water, glycols, oils, alcohols and the like in the case of oral liquid preparations such as suspensions, syrups, elixirs and solutions; or solid earners such as starches, sugars, kaolin, lubricants, binders, disintegrating agents and the like in the case of powders, pills, capsules and tablets. Because of their ease in administration, tablets and capsules represent the most advantageous oral dosage unit form, in which case solid WO 99/~t5011 PCT/EP99/01308 pharmaceutical carriers are obviously employed. For parenteral compositions, the carrier will usually comprise sterile water, at least in large part, though other ingredients, for example, to aid solubility, may be included. Injectable solutions, for example, may be prepared in which the carrier comprises saline solution, glucose solution or a mixture of saline and glucose solution. Injectable solutions containing compounds of formula (I) may be formulated in an oil for prolonged action.
Appropriate oils for this purpose are, for example, peanut oil, sesame oil, cottonseed oil, corn oil, soy bean oil, synthetic glycerol esters of long chain fatty acids and mixtures of these and other oils. Injectable suspensions may also be prepared in which case appropriate liquid carriers, suspending agents and the like may be employed. In the compositions suitable for percutaneous administration, the carrier optionally comprises a penetration enhancing agent and/or a suitable wettable agent, optionally combined with suitable additives of any nature in minor proportions, which additives do not cause any significant deleterious effects on the skin. Said additives may facilitate the administration to the skin and/or may be helpful for preparing the desired compositions.
These compositions may be administered in various ways, e.g., as a transdermal patch, as a spot-on or as an ointment. Addition salts of (I) due to their increased water solubility over the corresponding free base or free acid form, are obviously more suitable in the preparation of aqueous compositions.
It is especially advantageous to formulate the aforementioned pharmaceutical composi-tions in dosage unit form for ease of administration and uniformity of dosage.
Dosage unit form as used in the specification and claims herein refers to physically discrete units suitable as unitary dosages, each unit containing a predetermined quantity of active ingredient calculated to produce the desired therapeutic effect, in association with the required pharmaceutical Garner. Examples of such dosage unit forms are tablets (including scored or coated tablets), capsules, pills, powder packets, wafers, injectable solutions or suspensions, teaspoonfuls, tablespoonfuls and the like, and segregated multiples thereof.
The following examples are intended to illustrate the present invention.
