The present invention relates to substituted [1,2,4]-triazole bicyclic adenosine A2a receptor antagonists, the use of said compounds in the treatment of central nervous system diseases, in particular Parkinson's disease, and to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said compounds.
Adenosine is known to be an endogenous modulator of a number of physiological functions. At the cardiovascular system level, adenosine is a strong vasodilator and a cardiac depressor. On the central nervous system, adenosine induces sedative, anxiolytic and antiepileptic effects. On the respiratory system, adenosine induces bronchoconstriction. At the kidney level, it exerts a biphasic action, inducing vasoconstriction at low concentrations and vasodilation at high doses. Adenosine acts as a lipolysis inhibitor on fat cells and as an antiaggregant on platelets.
Adenosine action is mediated by the interaction with different membrane specific receptors which belong to the family of receptors coupled with G proteins. Biochemical and pharmacological studies, together with advances in molecular biology, have allowed the identification of at least four subtypes of adenosine receptors: A1, A2a, A2b and A3. A1 and A3 are high-affinity, inhibiting the activity of the enzyme adenylate cyclase, and A2a and A2b are low-affinity, stimulating the activity of the same enzyme. Analogs of adenosine able to interact as antagonists with the A1, A2a, A2b and A3 receptors have also been identified.

Step 1: Combine 2-amino-4,6-dichloropyrimidine (0.50 g, 3.0 mmol), 2-(4-methoxy-phenyl)ethylamine (0.51 g, 3.4 mmol) and K2CO3 (0.46 g, 3.4 mmol e) in EtOH (8 ml). Heat in a sealed tube at 90° C. 1 h. Stir another 16 h, dilute with water (15 ml), filter, and purify on PLC to obtain the chloropyrimidine as a white solid.
Step 2: Combine the product of Step 1 (0.30 g, 1.08 mmol), 2-furoic hydrazide (0.16 g, 1.3 mmol),and 1.0 N HCl (0.4 ml) in EtOH (3 ml). Heat in a sealed tube at 90° C. for 16 h. Basify with NH3, extract with EtOAc, and purify on PLC to obtain the hydrazide as a yellow solid.
