Identification of a Novel Orally Bioavailable Phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A) Inhibitor with Efficacy in Animal Models of Schizophrenia.

Abstract: We report the continuation of a focused medicinal chemistry program aimed to further optimize a series of imidazo[1,2-a]pyrazines as a novel class of potent and selective phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10A) inhibitors. In vitro and in vivo pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic evaluation allowed the selection of compound 25a for its assessment in preclinical models of psychosis. The evolution of our medicinal chemistry program, structure-activity relationship (SAR) analysis, as well as a detailed pharmacological prof… Show more

“…Preliminary mechanistic investigations were conducted via four control experiments (Scheme 4 ). Treatment of 1a (0.10 mmol) with LiI ( 2a ) (0.10 mmol)/Selectfluor ( 3 ) (0.10 mmol) in DMF at 15 °C gave 6a 21 in 90% yield (Scheme 4 , eq 1). The trifluoromethylation of 6a (0.10 mmol) with FSO 2 CF 2 CO 2 Me ( 4 ) (0.30 mmol) in DMF with the assistance of CuI (15 mmol%) at 100 °C produced 5a in 80% yield (Scheme 4 , eq 2).…”

“…PDE10A has been demonstrated to be a potential target for the treatment of central nervous system (CNS) disorders (3,4). Previous studies have confirmed that PDE10A inhibitors have important biological activity in the treatment of psychosis (5)(6)(7). Therefore, screening for PDE10A inhibitors is an effective strategy for the treatment of CNS disorders.…”
