     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
       [0002]    The disclosure generally relates to compounds of formula I, including their salts, as well as compositions and methods of using the compounds. The compounds are ligands, agonists and partial agonists for the mGluR5 receptor and may be useful for the treatment of various disorders of the central nervous system. 
         [0003]    Glutamate is the major excitatory neurotransmitter in the mammalian brain, playing an important physiological role in a wide variety of processes. Glutamatergic neurotransmission is predominantly mediated through activation of cell surface receptors including ligand-gated ion channels (ionotropic receptors) and metabotropic glutamate G protein coupled receptors (mGluRs). The metabotropic glutamate receptor family is comprised of 8 family members that are part of the family 3 GPCR superfamily. These receptors are further subdivided into Group I (mGluR 1, 5), Group II (mGluR 2, 3) and Group III (mGluR 4, 6, 7, 8) based upon sequence homology, receptor signaling, and pharmacology. 
         [0004]    The Group I receptor mGluR5 has emerged as a target of potential therapeutic utility in a number of disease states (see: Rodriguez, A. L., et al. Current Opinion in Drug Discovery &amp; Development (2007), 10(6), 715-722. and Chen, Y., et al. Drugs of the Future (2008), 33(4), 355-360. and Lindsley, C. W., et al. Current Opinion in Drug Discovery &amp; Development (2009), 12(4), 446-457). The receptor is expressed broadly throughout the CNS with predominant post-synaptic localization, although pre-synaptic expression is also present. mGluR5 is a Gαq-coupled receptor activating phospholipase C and elevating intracellular calcium levels, leading to activation of downstream signaling molecules. Many studies have demonstrated a role for the receptor in regulating NMDA receptor activity as well as synaptic plasticity, suggesting this receptor plays a key role in glutamatergic signal transduction. 
         [0005]    Based on the expression pattern and functional role of mGluR5, this receptor has emerged as an important target for drug discovery in a number of therapeutic indications. Evaluation of genetically modified mice lacking mGluR5 as well as compounds that modulate receptor function suggest ligands that modulate mGluR5 receptor function have therapeutic utility in CNS and peripheral disease states including, but not limited to, schizophrenia (see: Conn, P. J., et al. Trends in Pharmacological Sciences (2009), 30(1), 25-31; and Kanuma, K., et al. Recent Patents on CNS Drug Discovery (2010), 5(1), 23-34), cognitive impairment (see: Simonyi, A., et al. European Journal of Pharmacology (2010), 639(1-3), 17-25), Alzheimer&#39;s disease, Parkinson&#39;s disease (see: Johnson, K. A., et al. CNS &amp; Neurological Disorders: Drug Targets (2009), 8(6), 475-491), Parkinson&#39;s disease levodopa-induced dyskinesia (see: Rylander, D., et al. Neurobiology of Disease (2010), 39(3), 352-361), addiction (see: Olive, M. F. Current Drug Abuse Reviews (2009), 2(1), 83-98), anxiety (see: Jacob, W., et al. Neuropharmacology (2009), 57(2), 97-108), depression (see: Witkin, J. M., et al. CNS &amp; Neurological Disorders: Drug Targets (2007), 6(2), 87-100), psychosis, epilepsy, Fragile X (see: Dolen, G., et al. Journal of Physiology (Oxford, United Kingdom) (2008), 586(6), 1503-1508), gastroesophageal reflux disease (see: Boeckxstaens, G. E. Expert Opinion on Emerging Drugs (2009), 14(3), 481-491), migraine (see: Marin, J., et al. Expert Opinion on Investigational Drugs (2010), 19(4), 555-561), pain, and others.

         [0017]    HEK293 (ZF) cells stably transfected with human mGluR5A (pIRES neo) and the rat glutamate-aspartate transporter (GLAST; pIRES puro) are grown in a monolayer culture at 37° C. in 5% CO 2  and fed with Minimum Essential Medium (MEM) supplemented with 10% dialysed fetal bovine serum. 24 hours prior to assay, cells are enzymatically dissociated from the culture flask (Trypsin, 0.25%), spun down (1000 rpm, 3 min), resuspended, and plated on Greiner black clear bottomed PDL-coated 384-well plates at a density of 30 thousand cells/well. On the day of the experiment, media is removed from the cell plates and replaced with Molecular Devices Calcium 4 microfluorometric Ca ++  sensitive dye in assay buffer (HBSS; Gibco #14025+20 mM HEPES and 250 uM probenacid). Plates are incubated in dye at 37° C. in 5% CO 2  for 60 minutes prior to delivery of test compounds in assay buffer. Test compounds are incubated with cells in the presence of dye for 10 minutes prior to being read on the FLIPR platform (Molecular Devices). A Ca ++  signal is induced in the assay plates via the delivery of an ˜EC 10  concentration of the endogenous agonist 1-glutamate; images are acquired at 1 Hz for 100 seconds post-delivery of agonist stimulus. Positive modulator activity (i.e. the ability of test compounds to increase the Ca ++  response to a sub-maximal concentration of agonist) is normalized to a saturating concentration of a known mGluR5 PAM run in each assay plate. An EC 50  concentration of test compounds is derived from 4-parameter logistic curve fits of transformed fluoresence data via proprietary software suite.

         [0026]    “Patient” means a person suitable for therapy as understood by practitioners in the field of affective disorders and neurodegenerative disorders. 
         [0027]    “Treatment,” “therapy,” and related terms are used as understood by practitioners in the field of neurological and psychiatric disorders. 
         [0028]    The compounds of this invention are generally given as pharmaceutical compositions comprised of a therapeutically effective amount of a compound or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier and may contain conventional excipients. Pharmaceutically acceptable carriers are those conventionally known carriers having acceptable safety profiles. Compositions encompass all common solid and liquid forms including for example capsules, tablets, losenges, and powders as well as liquid suspensions, syrups, elixers, and solutions. Compositions are made using common formulation techniques, and conventional excipients (such as binding and wetting agents) and vehicles (such as water and alcohols) are generally used for compositions. See, for example,  Remington&#39;s Pharmaceutical Sciences , Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa., 17th edition, 1985. 
         [0029]    Solid compositions are normally formulated in dosage units and compositions providing from about 1 to 1000 mg of the active ingredient per dose are preferred. Some examples of dosages are 1 mg, 10 mg, 100 mg, 250 mg, 500 mg, and 1000 mg. Generally, other agents will be present in a unit range similar to agents of that class used clinically. Typically, this is 0.25-1000 mg/unit. 
         [0030]    Liquid compositions are usually in dosage unit ranges. Generally, the liquid composition will be in a unit dosage range of 1-100 mg/mL. Some examples of dosages are 1 mg/mL, 10 mg/mL, 25 mg/mL, 50 mg/mL, and 100 mg/mL. Generally, other agents will be present in a unit range similar to agents of that class used clinically. Typically, this is 1-100 mg/mL. 
         [0031]    The invention encompasses all conventional modes of administration; oral and parenteral methods are preferred. Generally, the dosing regimen will be similar to other agents used clinically. Typically, the daily dose will be 1-100 mg/kg body weight daily. Generally, more compound is required orally and less parenterally. The specific dosing regime, however, will be determined by a physician using sound medical judgement.

       3,3-Difluorocyclobutanecarbaldehyde 
       [0085]    To a solution of (3,3-difluorocyclobutyl)methanol (4 g, 328 mmol) in dichloromethane (109 ml) at room temperature was added Dess-Martin Periodinane (16.67 g, 39.3 mmol). After 1 h, the reaction was a faint white suspension. A small aliquot was removed, blown down under a stream of nitrogen, and analyzed by HNMR in CDCl 3 . HNMR showed a 2.3:1.0 ratio of product to starting material. The NMR sample was returned to the larger reaction mixture. After stirring a total of 1.75 h, HNMR shows complete consumption of SM. The reaction was diluted with two volumes of ether and treated with sodiumthiosulfate (32 g) in water (160 mL). After stirring at room temperature for 10 min, the layers were separated. The ethereal was washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate (2×), dried over magnesium sulfate, and filtered. The resulting solution was concentrated via distillation of the solvent through a short path distillation apparatus. The distillation was discontinued when 6.56 g remained in the boiling flask. Integration of the  1 H NMR showed product as 28.4 wt % (1.86 g, 47% yield). The material was directly used without further concentration.  1 H NMR (CDCl 3 ) δ: 9.81 (t, J=1.7 Hz, 1H), 3.00-3.13 (m, 1H), 2.71-2.99 (m, 4H).

         [0213]    It will be evident to one skilled in the art that the present disclosure is not limited to the foregoing illustrative examples, and that it can be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the essential attributes thereof. It is therefore desired that the examples be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive, reference being made to the appended claims, rather than to the foregoing examples, and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency of the claims are therefore intended to be embraced therein.
