FIELD OF THE INVENTION The present invention is in the field of medicinal chemistry and relates to compounds that are protein kinase inhibitors, compositions containing such compounds and methods of use. More particularly, this invention relates to compounds that are inhibitors of GSK-3 and Aurora-2 protein kinases. The invention also relates to methods of treating diseases associated with these protein kinases, such as diabetes, cancer and Alzheimer's disease. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The search for new therapeutic agents has been greatly aided in recent years by better understanding of the structure of enzymes and other biomolecules associated with target diseases. One important class of enzymes that has been the subject of extensive study is the protein kinases . Protein kinases mediate intracellular signal transduction. They do this by effecting a phosphoryl transfer from a nucleoside triphosphate to a protein acceptor that is involved in a signaling pathway. There are a number of kinases and pathways through which extracellular and other stimuli cause a variety of cellular responses to occur inside the cell. Examples of such stimuli include environmental and chemical stress signals (e.g. osmotic shock, heat shock, ultraviolet radiation, bacterial endotoxin, H 2 0 2 ) , cytokines (e.g. interleukin-1 (IL-1) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF- α) ) , and growth factors (e.g. granulocyte ' macrophage- colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) , and fibroblast growth factor (FGF) . An extracellular stimulus may effect one or more cellular responses related to cell growth, migration, di ferentiation, secretion of hormones, activation of transcription factors, muscle contraction, glucose metabolism, control of protein synthesis and regulation of cell cycle. Many diseases are associated with abnormal cellular responses triggered by protein kinase-mediated events. These diseases include autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, neurological and neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, cardiovascular diseases, allergies and asthma, Alzheimer's disease or hormone-related diseases. Accordingly, there has been a substantial effort in medicinal chemistry to find protein kinase inhibitors that are effective as therapeutic agents . Aurora-2 is a serine/threonine protein kinase that has been implicated in human cancer, such as colon, breast and other solid tumors. This kinase is believed to be involved in protein phosphorylation events that regulate the cell cycle. Specifically, Aurora-2 may play a role in controlling the accurate segregation of chromosomes during mitosis . Misregulation of the cell cycle can lead to cellular proliferation and other abnormalities. In human colon cancer tissue, the aurora- 2 protein has been found to be overexpressed. See • Bischoff et al., EMBO J. , 1998, 17, 3052-3065; Schumacher et al., J " . Cell Biol . , 1998 ' , 143, 1635-1646; Kimura et al., J. Biol . Chem. , 1997, 272, 13766-13771. Glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) is a serine/threonine protein kinase comprised of α and β isoforms that are each encoded by distinct genes [Coghlan et al., Chemistry & Biology, 7, 793-803 (2000); Kim and Kimmel, Curr. Opinion Genetics Dev. , 10, 508-514 (2000)]. GSK-3 has been implicated in various diseases including diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, CNS disorders such as manic depressive disorder and neurodegenerative diseases, and cardiomyocete hypertrophy [WO 99/65897; WO 00/38675; and Haq et al . , J " . Cell Biol . (2000) 151, 117]. These diseases may be caused by, or result in, the abnormal operation of certain cell signaling pathways in which GSK-3 plays a role. GSK-3 has been found to phosphorylate and modulate the activity of a number of regulatory proteins . These proteins include glycogen synthase which is the rate limiting enzyme necessary for glycogen synthesis, the icrotubule associated protein Tau, the gene transcription factor β-catenin, the translation initiation factor elF2B, as well as ATP citrate lyase, axin, .heat shock factor-1, c-Jun, c-Myc, c-Myb, CREB, and CEPBα. These diverse protein targets implicate GSK-3 in many aspects of cellular metabolism, proliferation, differentiation and development. In a GSK-3 mediated pathway that is relevant for the treatment of type II diabetes, insulin-induced signaling leads to cellular glucose uptake and glycogen synthesis. Along this pathway, GSK-3 is a negative regulator of the insulin-induced signal. Normally, the presence of insulin causes inhibition of GSK-3 mediated phosphorylation and deactivation of glycogen synthase. The inhibition of GSK-3 leads to increased glycogen synthesis and glucose uptake [Klein et al., PNAS, 93, 8455-9 (1996); Cross et al . , Biochem. J. , 303, 21-26 (1994); Cohen, Biochem. Soc. Trans . , 21, 555-567 (1993); Massillon et al . , Biochem J. 299, 123-128 (1994)]. However, in a diabetic patient where the insulin response is impaired, glycogen synthesis and glucose uptake fail to increase despite the presence of relatively high blood levels of insulin. This leads to abnormally high blood levels of glucose with acute and long term effects that may ultimately result in cardiovascular disease, renal failure and blindness. In such patients, the normal insulin-induced inhibition of GSK-3 fails to occur. It has also been reported that in patients with type II diabetes, GSK-3 is overexpressed [WO 00/38675] . Therapeutic inhibitors of GSK-3 are therefore potentially useful for treating diabetic patients suffering from an impaired response to insulin. GSK-3 activity has also been associated with Alzheimer's disease. This disease is characterized by the well-known β-amyloid peptide and the formation of intracellular neurofibrillary tangles. The neurofibrillary tangles contain hyperphosphorylated Tau protein where Tau is phosphorylated on abnormal sites. GSK-3 has been shown to phosphorylate these abnormal sites in cell and animal models. Furthermore, inhibition of GSK-3 has been shown to prevent hyperphosphorylation of Tau in cells [Lovestone et al . , Current Biology 4 , 1077-86 (1994); Brownlees et al . , Neuroreport 8, 3251-55 (1997)]. Therefore, it is believed that GSK-3 activity may promote generation of the neurofibrillary tangles and the progression of Alzheimer's disease. Another substrate of GSK-3 is β-catenin which is degradated after phosphorylation by GSK-3. Reduced levels of β-catenin have been reported in schizophrenic patients and have also been associated with other diseases related to increase in neuronal cell death [Zhong et al., Nature, 395, 698-702 (1998); Takashima et al., PNAS, 90, 7789-93 (1993); Pei et al . , J. Neuropathol . Exp, 56, 70-78 (1997)]. As a result of the biological importance of GSK-3, there is current interest in therapeutically effective GSK-3 inhbitors . Small molecules that inhibit GSK-3 have recently been reported [WO 99/65897 (Chiron) and WO 00/38675 (SmithKline Beecham) ] . , For many of the aforementioned diseases associated with abnormal GSK-3 activity, other protein kinases have also been targeted for treating the same diseases. However, the various protein kinases often act through different biological pathways. For example, certain quinazoline derivatives have been reported recently as inhibitors of p38 kinase (WO 00/12497 to Scios) . The compounds are reported to be useful for treating conditions characterized by enhanced p38- activity and/or enhanced TGF-β activity. While p38 activity has been implicated in a wide variety of diseases, including diabetes, p38 kinase is not reported to be a constituent of an insulin signaling pathway that regulates glycogen synthesis or glucose uptake. Therefore, unlike GSK-3, p38 inhibition would not be expected to enhance glycogen synthesis and/or glucose uptake . There is a continued need to find new therapeutic agents to treat human diseases. The protein kinases aurora-2 and GSK-3 are especially attractive targets for the discovery of new therapeutics due to their important role in cancer, diabetes, Alzheimer's disease and other diseases .

The compounds of this invention may be prepared as illustrated by the Synthetic Methods below, by the Synthetic Examples described herein and by general methods known to those skilled in the art. General Synthetic Methods The general synthetic methods below provide a series of general reaction routes that were used to prepare compounds of this invention. Methods A-F below are particularly useful for preparing formula II compounds. In most cases, Ring C is drawn as a phenyl ring bearing an ortho R 1 substituent. However, it will be apparent to one skilled in the art that compounds having other Ring C groups may be obtained in a similar manner. Methods analogous to methods A-F are also useful for preparing other compounds of this invention. Methods F-I below are particulary useful for preparing compounds of formula III or IV. Method A II Method A is a general route for the preparation of compounds wherein ring C is an aryl or heteroaryl ring. Preparation of the starting dichloropyrimidine 1 may be achieved in a manner similar to that described in Chem. Pharm. Bull . , 30, 9, 1982, 3121-3124. The chlorine in position 4 of intermediate 1 may be replaced by an aminopyrazole or aminoindazole to provide intermediate 2 in a manner similar to that described in J. Med. Chem. , 38, 3547-3557 (1995) . Ring C is then introduced using a boronic ester under palladium catalysis (see Tetrahedron, 48, 37, 1992, 8117-8126) . This method is illustrated by the following procedure. A suspension of 1H-quinazoline-2, 4-dione (10.0 g, 61.7 mmol) in POCl 3 (60 L, 644 mmol) and N,N- dimethylaniline (8mL, 63.1 mmol) is heated under reflux for 2 h. Excess POCl 3 is evaporated under vacuum, the residue is poured into ice, and the precipitate is collected by filtration. The crude solid 2,4- dichloroquinazoline product may be used without further purificatio . To a solution of 2,4-dichloro-quinazoline (3.3 g, 16.6 mmol) in anhydrous ethanol (150 mL) is added 5- methyl-lJϊ-pyrazol-3-yl amine (3.2 g, 32.9 mmol). The mixture is stirred at room temperature for 4 h, and the resulting precipitate is collected by filtration, washed with ethanol, and dried under vacuum to afford (2-chloro- quinazolin-4-yl) - (5-methyl-lff-pyrazol-3-yl) -amine. To a solution of (2-chloro-quinazolin-4-yl) - (5- methyl-lH-pyrazol-3-yl) -amine (50 mg, 0.19 mmol) in DMF (1.0 mL) is added the desired arylboronic acid (0.38 mmol), 2M Na2C03 (0.96 mmol), and tri-t-butylphosphine (0.19 mmol). Under nitrogen, PdCl 2 (dppf) (0.011 mmol) is added in one portion. The reaction mixture is then heated at 80°C for 5 to 10 hours, cooled to room temperature, and poured into water (2 mL) . The resulting precipitate is collected by filtration, washed with water, and purified by HPLC. Method B (i) (iii) Methods B through F describe routes where the pyrazole ring system is introduced after Ring C and the . pyrimidine ring portion are first constructed. A versatile intermediate is the 4-chloropyrimidine 4, which is readily obtained from pyrimidinone 3 as shown in Method B(i). This reaction sequence is generally applicable for a variety of Ring C groups including aliphatic, aryl, heteroaryl, or heterocyclyl. See J. Med. Chem. , 38, 3547-3557 (1995). For quinazoline ring systems (where R x and R y are taken together to form a benzo ring) , the useful intermediate 6 may be obtained by condensing an anthranilic acid or its derivative with a benzamidine as shown in Method B(ii) or by condensing a benzoylchloride with an anthranilamide as shown in Method B(iii) . ' Many substituted anthranilic acid, anthranilamide, benzamidine and benzoylchloride starting materials may ' be obtained by known methods. See Aust . J. Chem. , 38, 467-474 and J " . Med. Chem. , 38, 3547-3557 (1995). Method B(iii) is illustrated by the following procedure. To a solution of anthranilamide (33 mmol) in THF and CH 2 C1 2 (1:1, 70 mL) is added the desired benzoylchloride (33 mmol) , and triethylamine (99 mmol) at room temperature. The mixture is stirred for about 14 hours . The resulting precipitate is collected by filtration, washed with CH 2 C1 2 and water, and dried under vacuum. The crude 2-benzoylaminobenzamide may be used directly for the next step without further purification. To a solution of the above crude product (13 mmol) in ethanol (50 mL) is added NaOEt (26 mmol) at room temperature. The mixture is heated under reflux for 48 to 96 h. The solvent is evaporated and the residue is neutralized using concentrated HC1 to pH 7. The product is then collected by filtration and dried under vacuum to provide 2-phenyl-3H-quinazolin-4-one that may be used without further purification. To a suspension of the above product (12 mmol) in POCl 3 (120 mmol) is added tri-n-propylamine (24 mmol) . The mixture is heated under reflux for lh. After removal of the excess P0C1 3 by evaporation, the residue is dissolved in ethyl acetate, and washed with IN NaOH (twice) and water (twice) . The organic layer is dried over MgS0 4 , the solvent is evaporated under vacuum, and the crude product is purified by flash chromatography (eluting with 10% of ethyl actetate in hexanes) to give 4-chloro-2-aryl quinazoline. To a solution of 4-chloro-2-aryl quinazoline (0.16 mmol) in DMF (or THF, ethanol) (1 mL) is added the desired aminopyrazole or aminoindazole (0.32 mmol). The mixture is heated in DMF (or THF under reflux) at 100 to 110°C for 16 h (or in ethanol at l30-160°C for 16 hours) and then poured into water (2 mL) . The precipitate is collected by filtration and purified by HPLC. Method C Method D(i) R'Λ CO_Et _L 10 11 Methods C and D(i) above employ β-ketoesters 8 and 10, respectively, as pyrimidinone . precursors. The substitution pattern of the R x and R y groups on the pyrimidinone ring will be reversed if a chlorocrotonate 11 (Synth. Comm, (1986), 997-1002), instead of the corresponding β-ketoester 10, is condensed with the desired benzamidine. These methods are illustrated by the following general procedure. To a solution of a β-ketoester (5.2 ' mmol) and amidinium chloride (5.7 mmol) in ethanol (5 mL) .is added sodium ethoxide (7.8 mmol) . The mixture is heated under reflux for 7-14 hours. After evaporation the resulting residue is dissolved in water, acidified with concentrated HC1 to pH 6, and then filtered to obtain a solid product 2-aryl-3H-pyrimidin-4-one (yield 75-87%) , which may be purified by flash column chromatography if needed. To this pyrimidinone (3.7 mmol) is added P0C1 3 (4 L) and n-Pr 3 N (1.4 L) . The mixture is heated under reflux for 1 hour. After evaporation of the excess P0C1 3 , the residue is dissolved in ethyl acetate, washed with IN NaOH solution (three times) and NaHC0 3 (once) , and dried over MgS0 4 . The solvent is removed under vacuum and the residue is purified by flash column chromatography eluting with 10% of ethyl acetate in hexanes to give 2- aryl-4-chloro-pyrimidine as a pale yellow syrup. This crude product may be treated with a 3-aminopyrazole or 3- aminoindazole as described above. Method D ( ii) Method D(ii) above shows a general route for the preparation of the present compounds, such as compound 40, wherein R γ is N(R 4 ) 2 . See 11 Farmaco, 52(1) 61-65 (1997) . Displacement of the 6-chloro group is exemplified here using morpholine. This method is illustrated by the following procedure. To a solution of 2-methylmalonic acid diethyl ester (5 mmol) and sodium ethoxide (15 mmol) is added the appropriate amidine salt (5 mmol) in ethanol (10 mL) and the reaction heated at reflux for 2-24 hours. The residue is dissolved in water and acidified with 2N HCl. The resulting precipitate is filtered off and further purified by flash chromatography (yield 5-35%) to afford the pyrimidinedione 37. To 37 (1.6 mmol) is added P0C1 3 (32 mmol) and tri-n-propylamine (6.4 mmol) and the reaction refluxed is for lh. After evaporation of excess P0C1 3 , the residue is dissolved in ethyl acetate, basified with IN NaOH, separated and the aqueous phase twice more extracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organics are dried (sodium sulfate) and evaporated. Purification by flash chromatography provides the dichloropyrimidine (38) as a yellow oil in 23% yield. A solution of 38 (0.33 mmol) in methanol (5 mL) is treated with an amine, exemplified here using morpholine (0.64 mmol) and refluxed 1 hour. After evaporation of solvent, the residue is purified by flash chromatography to provide the mono-chloropyrimidine 39 as a colorless oil in 75% yield. The mono-chloropyrimidine, 39, (0.19 mmol) may be treated with a 3-aminopyrazole or 3-aminoindazole compound in a manner substantially similar those described above in Methods A and B. Method E 9 (R x = H) As shown by Method E, an acyl isocyanate 12 may be condensed with an enamine to provide uvrimidinone 9 (J. Org. Chem (1993), 58, 414-418; J.Med. Chem., (1992), 35, 1515-1520; J. Org. Chem., 91967, 32, 313-214). This method is illustrated by the following general procedure. The enamine is prepared according to W. White, et al, J. Org Chem. (1967), 32, 213-214. The acyl isocyanate is prepared according to G Bradley, et al, J Med. Chem. (1992), 35, 1515-1520. The coupling reaction then follows the procedure of S Kawamura, et al, J. Org. Chem, (1993), 58, 414-418. To the enamine (10 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (30 mL) at 0°C under nitrogen is added dropwise over 5 min a solution of acyl isocyanate (10 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (5 mL) . After stirring for 0.5 h> acetic acid (30 mL) is added, followed by ammonium acetate (50 mmol) . The mixture is refluxed for 2 h with continuous removal of tetrahydrofuran. The reaction is cooled to room temperature and is poured into water (100 mL) . The precipitate is filtered, washed with water and ether and dried to provide the 2-aryl-3H-pyrimidin-4-one. Method F Method F shows a general route for the preparation of the present compounds wherein R x and R γ are taken together to form a 5-8 membered partially unsaturated saturated or unsaturated ring having 1-3 heteroatoms. The condensation of a 2-amino-carboxylic acid, such as 2-amino-nicotinic acid 13, and an acid chloride 7 provides an oxazinone 14. Treatment of 14 with ammonium hydroxide will furnish the benzamide 15 which may be cyclized to a 2- (substituted) -pyrido [2, 3- d] [l,3]pyrimidin-4-one 16. This method is illustrated by the following procedure. 2- (Trifluoromethyl) benzoyl chloride (4.2 ml, 29.2 mmol) is added dropwise to a solution of 2- aminonicotinic acid (2.04g, 14.76 mmol) in 20 ml of pyridine. The reaction mixture is. heated at 158 C for 30 min then cooled to room temperature. The reaction is poured into 200 ml of water and an oil forms which solidifies upon stirring. The solid is collected by vacuum filtration and washed with water and diethyl ether. The product is dried to give 2- (2- trifluoromethyl-phenyl) -pyrido [2, 3-d] [1,3] oxazin-4-one (2.56 g, 60% yield) which may be used in the next step without further purification. 2- (2-Trifluoromethyl-phenyl) -pyrido [2,3- d] [1, 3] oxazin-4-one (2.51g) is stirred in 30% ammonium hydroxide (25 ml) at room temperature overnight. The resulting precipitate is filtered and rinsed with water and diethyl ether. The precipitate is dried under vacuum at 50 C overnight to give 2- (2-trifluoromethyl- benzoylamino) -nicotinamide (850 mg, 33% yield) 2- (2-Trifluoromethyl-benzoylamino) -nicotinamide (800mg, 2.6mmol) is dissolved in 10ml of ethanol. Potassium ethoxide (435mg, 5.2mmol) is added to the solution which is heated to reflux for 16 h. The reaction mixture is evaporated in vacuo to afford a gummy residue that is dissolved i water and acidified with 10% sodium hydrogen sulfate to pH 7. The resulting precipitate is filtered and dried under vacuum at 50 C to give 2- (2-trifluoromethyl-phenyl) -3H-pyrido [2,3- d] pyrimidin-4-one . Method G Method G is analogous to Method B(i) above. This method is illustrated by the following general procedure . 2- (3, 4-Dichloro-phenyl) -3H-quinazolin-4-one (lg, 3.43 mmol) is suspended in phosphorus oxychloride (4 mL) and the reaction mixture was stirred at 110°C for 3 hours . The solvents are then evaporated and the residue is treated carefully with an .ice cold aqueous saturated solution of NaHC0 3 . The solid is collected by filtration and washed with ether to give 4-chloro-2- (3 , 5-dichloro- phenyl) -quinazoline as a white solid (993 mg, 93%).

These reactions provide a 2, 4-dichloro- (6- substituted) [1, 3, 5] triazine 26 that is a useful intermediate for the preparation of compounds of formula VI. Alternatively, intermediate 26 may be obtained by constructing the triazine ring by known methods. See US patent 2,832,779; and US patent 2,691020 together with J. Am. Chem. Soc. 60, 1656 (1938) . In turn, one of the chlorines of 26 may be displaced as described above to provide 2-chloro- (4, 6-disubstituted) [1, 3 , 5] triazine 27. The treatment of 27 with an appropriate aminopyrazole provides the desired compound of formula VI . Method L 31 Method L shows a route for preparing compounds of formula VII. For illustration purposes the trifluoromethylchalcone 28 is used as a starting material; however, it would be apparent to one skilled in the art that other rings may be used in place of the trifluoromethylphenyl and phenyl rings of compound 28. Substituted chalcones may be prepared by known methods, for example as described in the Indian J. Chemistry, 32B, 449 (1993) . Condensation of a chalcone with urea provides the pyrimidinone 29, which may be treated with P0C1 3 to give the chloropyrimidine 30. See J " . chem. Eng. Data, 30(4) 512 (1985) and Egypt . J. Chem. , 37(3), 283 (1994) . In an alternative approach to compound 30, one of the aryl rings attached to the pyrimidine is introduced by displacement of of the 4-chloro group of 2, 4-dichloro- (6-aryl) -pyrimidine by an aryl boronic acid using a palladium catalyst such as (Ph 3 P) 4 Pd in the presence of a base such as sodium carbonate as described in Bioorg. Med. Lett . , 9(7), 1057 (1999). Displacement of the chlorine of compound 30 by an appropriate aminopyrazole provides compounds of this invention, such as 31. The last step of this method is illustrated by the following procedure. [4- (4-Methylpiperidin-l-yl) -pyrimidin-2-yl] - (5- methyl-2H-pyrazol-3-yl) -amine.

A general procedure for displacing the chlorine of a 4-chloro-6-substituted- pyridazine, 32, with an appropriately substituted pyrazole to provide Villa is described in J " . Het . Chem. , 20, 1473 (1983) . Analogous reactions may be carried out as follows: (a) with 3-chloro-5-substituted-pyridazine, 33, to provide Vlllb is described in J " . Med. Chem. , 41(3), 311 (1998); (b) with 5-chloro-3-substituted- [1, 2, 4] triazine, 34, to provide VIIIc is described in Heterocycles , 26(12), 3259 (1987); and (c) with 3-chloro- 5-substituted- [1,2,4] triazine, 35, to provide Vllld is described in Pol .

BIOLOGICAL TESTING The activity of the compounds as protein kinase inhibitors may be assayed in vitro, in vivo or in a cell line. In vitro assays include assays that determine inhibition of either the phosphorylation activity or ATPase activity of the activated protein kinase. Alternate in vi tro assays quantitate the ability of the inhibitor to bind to the protein kinase. Inhibitor binding may be measured by radiolabelling the inhibitor prior to binding, isolating the inhibitor/protein kinase complex and determining the amount of radiolabel bound. Alternatively, inhibitor binding, may be determined by running a competition experiment where new inhibitors are incubated with the protein kinase bound to known radioligands . BIOLOGICAL TESTING EXAMPLE 1 K ± DETERMINATION FOR THE INHIBITION OF GSK-3 Compounds were screened for their ability to inhibit GSK-3β (AA 1-420) activity using a standard coupled enzyme system (Fox et al . (1998) Protein Sci . 1 , 2249) . Reactions were carried out in a solution containing 100 mM HEPES (pH 7.5), 10 mM MgCl 2 , 25 mM NaCl, 300 μM NADH, 1 mM DTT and 1.5% DMSO. Final substrate concentrations in the assay were 20 μM ATP (Sigma Chemicals, St Louis, MO) and 300 μM peptide (HSSPHQS (P0 3 H 2 )EDEEE, American Peptide, Sunnyvale, CA) . Reactions were carried out at 30 °C and 20 nM GSK-3β. Final concentrations of the components of the coupled enzyme system were 2.5 mM phosphoenolpyruvate, 300 μM NADH, 30 μg/ml pyruvate kinase and 10 μg/ml lactate dehydrogenase . An assay stock buffer solution was prepared containing all of the reagents listed, above with the exception of ATP and the test compound of interest. The assay stock buffer solution (175 μl) was incubated in a 5 96 well plate with 5 μl of the test compound of interest at final concentrations spanning 0.002 μM to 30 μM at 30 °C for 10 min. Typically, a 12 point titration was conducted by preparing serial dilutions (from 10 mM compound stocks) with DMSO of the test compounds in 10 daughter plates . The reaction was initiated by the addition of 20 μl of ATP (final concentration 20 μM) .
