The compounds of formula (I) can have one or more asymmetric carbon atoms. They can therefore exist in the form of enantiomers or of diastereoisomers. These enantiomers, diastereoisomers, and mixtures thereof, including the racemic mixtures, form part of the invention.
The compounds of formula (I) can be in the form of bases or of salts of addition to acids. Said salts of addition form part of the invention.
These salts are advantageously prepared with pharmaceutically acceptable acids, but the salts of other acids, used for example for the purification or isolation of the compounds of formula (I), also form part of the invention.
The compounds of formula (I) can also be in the form of hydrates and/or of solvates, namely in the form of associations or of combinations with one or more molecules of water and/or of solvent. Said hydrates and solvates also form part of the invention.
The following definitions are used for the purposes of the present invention:

    
    
        a halogen atom: a fluorine, a chlorine, a bromine or an iodine;
        a C1-6-alkyl group: a saturated, linear or branched monovalent aliphatic group that can comprise 1 to 6 carbon atoms. We may mention, as examples, the methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl, pentyl groups; this definition also being valid for the groups C1-3-alkyl, C1-4-alkyl, C1-10-alkyl for example for which only the possible number of carbons changes;
        a C1-6-alkylene group: a saturated, linear or branched divalent aliphatic group that can have from 1 to 6 carbon atoms. We may mention, as examples, the methylenyl (—CH2—), ethylenyl (—CH2CH2—), 1-methylethylenyl (—CH(CH3)CH2—), propylenyl (—CH2CH2CH2—) groups;
        a C1-6-alkoxy group: an alkyl-O— radical, where the alkyl group is as defined previously; similarly for the C1-3-alkoxy group, for which only the possible number of carbons changes;
        a C2-6-alkenyl group: a linear or branched, mono- or poly-unsaturated aliphatic group that can comprise from 2 to 6 carbon atoms and for example one or two ethylenic unsaturations. For example, we may mention the groups ethenyl, propenyl;
        a heterocyclic group: a saturated cyclic group with 4 to 7 ring members having one or more heteroatoms such as a nitrogen, oxygen or sulfur atom. We may mention, as examples, the pyrrolidinyl, piperidinyl, tetrahydropyranyl, piperidonyl, morpholinyl, piperazinyl, N-methyl-piperazinyl, homomorpholinyl, oxetanyl groups;
        an aryl group is a monocyclic or polycyclic aromatic system having from 6 to 14 carbon atoms, preferably from 6 to 10 carbon atoms. When the system is polycyclic, at least one of the rings is aromatic. We may mention, as examples, the phenyl, naphthyl, tetrahydronaphthyl, indanyl groups;
        a heteroaryl group: a cyclic aromatic group comprising between 1 and 6 carbon atoms and between 1 and 4 heteroatoms, such as nitrogen, oxygen or sulfur.

The combinations of the groups according to the invention as previously defined also form part of the invention.
In accordance with the invention, the compounds of formula (I) can be prepared according to the method illustrated by Scheme 1 given below.
In the schemes given below, when the method of preparation of the starting compounds and reagents is not described, they are commercially available or are described in the literature, or alternatively can be prepared according to methods that are described in the literature or are known by a person skilled in the art.




According to Scheme 1 above, the compound of formula (I) can be obtained by acylation of the amine of formula (III)—in which X, Y, R4, R5, Q, W and n are as defined for the compound of formula (I)—with the pyrazole acid of formula (II)—in which R1, R2, R3 and V are as defined for the compound of formula (I)—according to conditions known by a person skilled in the art, for example in the presence of hydroxybenzotriazole hydrate (HOBt) and 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylamino-propyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride (EDAC) in an inert solvent such as N,N′-dimethylformamide (DMF), acetonitrile or dichloromethane (DCM) at a temperature that can range from 0° C. to room temperature (B. M. Trost, I. Fleming, E. Winterfeldt, Comprehensive Organic Synthesis, 1991, vol. 6, 1st edition, Pergamon Press, Oxford, 381-417). The compound of formula (I) is preferably synthesized from the chiral (2R,3S) amine of formula (III) and in this case the conformation of the final compound of formula (I) is (1S,2R).




As described in Scheme 2 above, the aforementioned compound of formula (II) can be obtained by a sequence of reactions starting from the dialkyl pyrazole 3,5-dicarboxylate of formula (VII) in which R′ and R′′ can represent, independently of one another, a C1-6-alkyl group, in particular methyl, ethyl, tert-butyl, or benzyl. This disubstituted pyrazole of formula (VII) is either commercially available such as 1H-pyrazole-3,5-diethyl dicarboxylate, or is synthesized according to methods known by a person skilled in the art (J. A. Joule, K. Mills, Heterocyclic Chemistry, 2000, 4th edition, Blackwell Science, 448).
More precisely, according to Scheme 2, we obtain the N-substituted pyrazole derivative of formula (VI)—in which R3 and V are as defined for the compound of formula (I)—and R′ and R′′ represent protecting groups of the carboxylic acid functions, for example an ethyl group (T. W. Greene, P. G. M. Wuts Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 1999, 3rd Edition, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 369-431), by reaction of substitution of an NH-pyrazole diester derivative of formula (VII)—in which V, R′ and R′′ are as defined for the compound of formula (VI)—by an alkylating agent of formula R3—Z in which Z is a nucleophilic group known by a person skilled in the art, for example a halide, a mesylate, a tosylate. This reaction is carried out in the presence of a base such as sodium hydride, in an inert solvent such as DMF (S. C. Kuo, L. J. Huang, H. Nakamura, J. Med. Chem; 1984, 49, 539).
When we wish to obtain pyrazole derivatives of formula (VI) in which R3 is an aryl or heteroaryl group, for example the compounds of formula (VII), as described previously, are submitted to a reaction of aromatic nucleophilic substitution or a reaction of the Ullmann type (R. Bambal, R. B. Hazilnik, J. Org. Chem. 1994, 59, 729-732; J. Hassan, M. Sevignon, C. Gozzi, E. Schultz, M. Lemaire, Chem. Rev., 2002, 102, 1359-1470; A. Klapars, J. C. Antilla; X. Huang, S. I. Buchwald, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 2001, 123, 7727-7729).
We obtain the compound of formula (V)—in which R3, V and R′′ are as defined for the compound of formula (VI)—by selective deprotection in position 5 of the compound of formula (VI) obtained previously, according to methods known by a person skilled in the art (T. W. Greene, P. G. M. Wuts Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 1999, 3rd Edition, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 369-431).
This reaction of selective deprotection can for example be carried out in the presence of lithium hydroxide in a mixture of equal volumes of tetrahydrofuran and distilled water at room temperature, notably in the case when R′ and R′′ are both an ethyl group.
We obtain the monoester derivative of formula (IVa)—in which R1, R2, R3 and V are as defined for the compound of formula (I) and R′′ is as defined for the compound of formula (V)—by a reaction of acylation of the compound of formula R1R2NH in which R1 and R2 are as defined for the compound of formula (I)—by an acid derivative of formula (V), as defined previously, according to conditions known by a person skilled in the art, for example in the presence of HOBt and EDAC and in an inert solvent such as DMF (B. M. Trost, I. Fleming, E. Winterfeldt Comprehensive Organic Synthesis, 1991, vol. 6, 1st edition, Pergamon Press, Exeter, 381-417).
Finally we obtain the compound of formula (II) in which R1, R2, R3 and V are as defined for the compound of formula (I), by a reaction of deprotection of the compound of formula (IVa) obtained previously, according to methods known by a person skilled in the art, for example in the presence of lithium hydroxide, in a mixture of equal volumes of THF and distilled water at room temperature, in particular when R′′ represents an ethyl group.
Alternatively, the compounds of formula (II) in which R3 is an alkyl can be obtained from the derivative of formula (IVa) in which R3 is a benzyl, the other groups being as defined previously.
In this case, the derivative of formula (IVa) is debenzylated according to the conditions of deprotection known by a person skilled in the art, for example in the presence of ammonium formate and 10% Pd/C in absolute ethanol (T. W. Greene, P. G. M. Wuts Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 1999, 3rd Edition, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 578-580).
The N-debenzylated amide thus obtained then undergoes a reaction of alkylation following the conditions known by a person skilled in the art, such as those used for the synthesis of the compound of formula (VI), which can give the 2 possible regioisomers, which are then deprotected in acids.
Alternatively, we can obtain the compositions of formula (IVa), so that the compound of formula (II) can be obtained according to the following Scheme 3.




Thus, the compounds of formula (IVa) as defined previously are obtained by a reaction of N-alkylation on the compound of formula (IVb)—in which R2, R3, V and R′′ are as defined for the compound of formula (IVa)—according to the methods known by a person skilled in the art (R. C. Larock Comprehensive Organic Transformations, 1999, 2nd Edition, John Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, 1979-1980), by an alkylating agent for example of formula R1—Z in which R1 is as defined for the compound of formula (I) (except for a hydrogen) and Z is as defined previously.
We obtain the compound of formula (IVb) by a reaction of acylation of the compound of formula R2—NH2 by the acid derivative of formula (V) as defined previously, according to the conditions known by a person skilled in the art, for example in the presence of HOBt and EDAC in an inert solvent such as DMF (B. M. Trost, I. Fleming, E. Winterfeldt Comprehensive Organic Synthesis, 1991, vol. 6, 1st edition, Pergamon Press, Exeter, 381-417).
The amine derivatives of formula (III) can be obtained according to Scheme 4 given below.




We obtain the compounds of formula (III)—in which R4, R5, X, Y, Q, W and n are as defined for the compound of formula (I)—by a reaction of deprotection of the amine derivative of formula (VIII)—in which R4, R5, X, Y, Q, W and n are as defined for the compound of formula (I) and PG represents a protecting group (T. W. Greene, P. G. M. Wuts Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 1999, 3rd Edition, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 369-431).
For example, if the protecting group is a tert-butoxycarbonyl (Boc), the amine derivative of formula (VIII) is treated with trifluoroacetic acid in dichloromethane (mixture of equal volumes).
We obtain the compound of formula (VIII) as defined previously, by reaction of the compound of formula (X)—in which X and Y are as defined for the compound of formula (I) and PG represents a protecting group—with a compound of formula (IX)—in which R4, R5, Q, W and n are as defined for the compound of formula (I)—according to the conditions known by a person skilled in the art, for example in isopropanol under reflux (A. K. Gosh, S. Leshchenko, M. Noetzel J. Org. Chem., 2004, 69, 7822-7829) or in dichloroethane (DCE) heated between 40° C. and 85° C. in the presence of a catalytic amount of lithium trifluoromethane sulfonimide (J. Cossy, V. Bellosta, C. Hamoir, J.-R. Desmurs Tetrahedron Lett., 2002, 43, 7083-7086).
The compound of formula (IX) is either commercially available or is synthesized from commercial compounds and according to methods known by a person skilled in the art (E. Ciganek J. Org. Chem., 1992, 57, 4521-4527; P. Bertus, J. Szymoniak, J. Org. Chem., 2003, 68, 7133-7136; T. T. Colyer, N. G. Andersen, J. S. Tedrow, T. S. Soukup, M. M. Faul, J. Org. Chem., 2006, 71, 6859-6862).
The compound of formula (X) is either commercially available or is synthesized according to methods known by a person skilled in the art (R. Luly, J. F. Dellaria, J. J. Plattner, J. L. Soderquist, N. Yi, J. Org. Chem., 1987, 52, 1487).
Preferably, the amine derivative of formula (III) in enantiomeric form (S,R) is obtained from the chiral (S,S) compound of formula (X).
When a function of a compound is reactive, for example when R1 bears a hydroxy, it may require a protection prior to reaction. A person skilled in the art will easily be able to determine whether prior protection is necessary (T. W. Greene, P. G. M. Wuts Protective Groups in Organic Synthesis, 1999, 3rd Edition, John Wiley and Sons, Inc., 369-431).

The compounds of the invention underwent pharmacological testing, which demonstrated their usefulness as active substances in therapeutics.

In particular they were tested for their effects in inhibition of production of the (β-amyloid peptide (β-A4).
The β-amyloid peptide (β-A4) is a fragment of a more important precursor protein called APP (Amyloid Precursor Protein). The latter is produced and is present in various cells of animal and human tissue. However, its cleavage in brain tissue by enzymes of the protease type leads to the formation of the peptide β-A4 which accumulates in the form of amyloid plaque. The two proteases responsible for the production of the amyloid peptide are known as beta and gamma-secretases (M. S. Wolfe, J. Med. Chem., 2001, 44, 2039-60).
It has been shown that this progressive deposition of the peptide β-A4 is neurotoxic and might play an important role in Alzheimer's disease (C. Hölscher, Neurosciences, 2005, 16, 181-212).
Thus, the compounds of the present invention, as inhibitors of the production of the β-amyloid peptide (β-A4) by inhibition of beta-secretase BACE1 (β-site APP cleavage enzyme subtype 1), can be used in the treatment of pathologies such as senile dementia, Alzheimer's disease, Down's syndrome, Parkinson's disease, amyloid angiopathy, cerebrovascular disorders, and/or neurodegenerative diseases (F. Coria et al., Neuropath. Appl. Neurobiol., 1996, 22, 216-227).
The enzymatic activity of BACE1 and the production of the β-A4 peptide can be analyzed in vitro and in viva
Various tests can be used for demonstrating the inhibitory activity of compounds on BACE1. Depending on circumstances, these tests can be performed with soluble BACE1 and a synthetic substrate, with cells expressing the substrate APP and BACE1 and/or with wild-type or transgenic animal models expressing APP and BACE1. The cells can be of various types, either transfected with the wild-type or mutated APP gene (CHO, HEK293, SHSY5Y, H4 etc.), or natural (IMR32, primary cultures of mouse neurons etc.). Similarly, tests of selectivity for cathepsin D and for alpha-secretase can be performed in particular (I. Hussain et al., Journal of Neurochemistry, 2007, 100, 802-809).
These tests are described according to the protocols given below.
Hereinafter:

Test 1: Inhibition of Soluble BACE1
This test uses soluble BACE1 and a synthetic substrate of BACE1.
The human recombinant soluble enzyme BACE1 is available from R&D Systems (reference 931-AS).
The synthetic peptide, made up of the amino acid sequence Ser-Glu-Val-Asn-Leu-Asp-Ala-Glu-Phe-Arg (S-10-R, available from NeoMPS, reference SP000122), is used as synthetic substrate of BACE1.
This synthetic substrate incorporates the cleavage site of BACE1 and fluorescent or chromogenic groups, so that the cleavage products can then be detected, either with UV after separation by HPLC, or by measurement of fluorescence or of optical density. In the present case, the cleavage product Asp-Ala-Glu-Phe-Arg, released during hydrolysis of S-10-R by BACE1, is quantified by UV detection [195 nm] after separation by HPLC with a gradient of acetonitrile from 2% to 100% [HP1100, Agilent; Column Atlantis dC18 (5 mm×2.1 mm; 3 μm)].
The synthetic substrate S-10-R is present at a final concentration of 350 μM, much lower than Km.
BACE1 is incubated at 20 nM in the presence of different concentrations of test compounds from 1 nM to 100 μM (the concentrations of inhibitors are tested starting from 100 μM by dilutions to a third), for 1 hour at 37° C., in a sodium acetate/acetic acid buffer 100 mM pH 4.5. The final concentration of DMSO in the test is 10%.
The percentage inhibition of the activity of BACE1 by the compounds of the invention is determined as a function of the amount of cleavage product detected by HPLC: the smaller the amount of cleavage product detected, the greater the inhibitory activity of the compounds.
The values of IC50 are then calculated from the percentage inhibition previously determined, in relation to the concentration of the test compounds.
The most active compounds of formula (I) according to the present invention displayed an IC50 less than 50 μM, preferably less than 10 μM, preferably less than 1 μM, preferably less than 100 nM. For example, compound 69 in the table had an IC50 of 2 μM and compound 53 in the table had an IC50 of 73 nM.
Test 2: Inhibition of Cellular Secretion of β-A4 40 and Soluble APPbeta with a Transfected Cell Line
This test uses cells expressing the substrate APP and BACE1.
A stable line of HEK293 cells [M. Citron et al., Nature, 1992, 360, 672-674] over expressing the APP751 gene bearing the Swedish double mutation (Lys651Met652 in Asn651Leu652; numbering of APP751) is used. The cells are distributed at a density of 15000 cells per well in a 96-well plate and cultivated for 72 hours in a DMEM/Ham F12 culture medium containing 10% of inactivated fetal calf serum. After replacing the culture medium, the test compounds are added at various concentrations (1 nM to 10 μM); the concentrations of inhibitors are tested from 10 μM by dilutions to a third]. The final concentration of DMSO is 1%. The cells are cultivated for 24 hours in the presence of the test compounds. The viability of the cells is monitored with the MTS kit from Promega (G3581). The supernatants are collected and the concentrations of amyloid β-A4 40 and Swedish soluble APPbeta peptides are determined using commercial assay kits available from MSD (references K11FTE-2 and K111BUE-2). The inhibitory activity of the test compounds is calculated from the percentage inhibition of secretion of the peptides in relation to the concentration of the test compound.
Test 3: Selectivity with Respect to Cellular Secretion of Soluble APPalpha with a Transfected Cell Line
The same type of test as test 2 is used.
Test 4: Inhibition of Cellular Secretion of β-A4 40 with a Natural Cell Line
A commercial human neuroblastoma line (ATTC No. CCL-127), IMR32, which expresses the substrate APP and BACE1 naturally, is used. The cells are distributed at a density of 80000 cells per well in a 96-well plate and cultivated for 24 hours in a DMEM/Ham F12 culture medium containing 10% of inactivated fetal calf serum. After replacing the culture medium, the test compounds are added at various concentrations (1 nM to 10 μM); the concentrations of inhibitors are tested from 10 μM by dilutions to a third]. The final concentration of DMSO is 1%. The cells are cultivated for 48 hours in the presence of the test compounds. The viability of the cells is monitored with the MTS kit from Promega (G3581). The supernatants are collected and the concentrations of amyloid peptide β-A4 40 are determined using the commercial assay kit available from MSD (reference K11FTE-2). The inhibitory activity of the test compounds is calculated from the percentage inhibition of secretion of the peptides in relation to the concentration of test compound.
