CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS 
       [0001]    The present application claims the benefit of PCT International patent application serial nos. PCT/CN2012/087865, filed Dec. 28, 2012, and PCT/CN2013/076853, filed Jun. 6, 2013, hereby incorporated by reference herein. 
     
    
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
       [0002]    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 anti-aggregant on platelets. 
         [0003]    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: A 1 , A 2A , A 2b  and A 3 . A 1  and A 3  are high-affinity, inhibiting the activity of the enzyme adenylate cyclase, and A 2A  and A 2b  are low-affinity, stimulating the activity of the same enzyme. 
         [0004]    Analogs of adenosine able to interact as antagonists with the A 1 , A 2A , A 2b  and A 3  receptors have also been identified. Selective antagonists for the A 2A  receptor are of pharmacological interest because of their reduced level of side effects. In the central nervous system, A 2A  antagonists can have antidepressant properties and stimulate cognitive functions. Moreover, data has shown that A 2A  receptors are present in high density in the basal ganglia, known to be important in the control of movement. Hence, A 2A  antagonists can improve motor impairment due to neurodegenerative diseases, for example, Parkinson&#39;s disease, senile dementia as in Alzheimer&#39;s disease, and psychoses of organic origin. 
         [0005]    Some xanthine-related compounds have been found to be A 1  receptor selective antagonists, and xanthine and non-xanthine compounds have been found to have high A 2A  affinity with varying degrees of A 2A  vs. A 1  selectivity. Triazolo-pyrimidine adenosine A 2A  receptor antagonists with different substitution at the 7-position have been disclosed previously, for example in PCT International Application Publication Nos. WO 95/01356; U.S. Pat. No. 5,565,460; WO 97/05138; and WO 98/52568. 
         [0006]    Parkinson&#39;s disease is characterized by progressive degeneration of the nigrostriatal dopaminergic pathway. The subsequent reduction in striatal dopamine levels is responsible for motor symptoms associated with Parkinson&#39;s disease, e.g., the loss of fine motor control or motor impairment manifested in those suffering from the disease. Current methodologies for alleviating motor symptoms associated with Parkinson&#39;s disease seek to replace dopamine either within the presynaptic terminal, for example, by administration of L-Dopa, directly through stimulation of the postsynaptic D 2  receptors, or by inhibiting metabolism, for example, by administration of monoamine oxidase type B (MAO-B) or catechol-O-methyltransferase (COMT). Long term use of such therapies is often associated with adverse events. For example, long term therapy with L-Dopa (currently the standard of care) is often associated with adverse events (e.g. motor complications), for example, “wearing-off”, “random on-off” oscillations, or dyskinesia. These motor complications arising from therapy administered to manage Parkinson&#39;s disease often become progressively more severe with continued treatment. 
         [0007]    As mentioned above, A 2A  receptors are present in high density in the basal ganglia and are known to be important in the control of fine motor movement. Highly selective A 2A  antagonists have demonstrated their efficacy in reducing motor symptoms associated with neurodegenerative diseases. Accordingly, compounds which are A 2A  receptor antagonists are believed to be useful in alleviating motor symptoms associated with Parkinson&#39;s disease. For example, U.S. Pat. No. 6,630,475 to Neustadt et al. (the &#39;475 patent) describes the preparation of the compound of Formula PI: 
         [0000]    
       
                 
         
             
             
         
       
     
         [0008]    In the &#39;475 patent example Schemes 1 to 5, along with preparative Schemes 1 to 4, show general methods of preparing compounds of Formula PI. The &#39;475 patent describes also that the compound of Formula I can be prepared as a pharmaceutically acceptable salt which may be useful for treating Parkinson&#39;s disease. 
         [0009]    The use of A 2A  receptor antagonists in the potential treatment of central nervous system diseases, in particular Parkinson&#39;s disease, and to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said compounds has elevated the need for potent, moderately lipophilic, brain penetrant inhibitors of the A 2A  receptor. Such compounds would provide an expansion of the arsenal of compounds which are believed to have value in the treatment of central nervous system disorders, in particular treating or managing the progression of such diseases, for example, but not limited to, Parkinson&#39;s disease.

         [0332]    As described herein, unless otherwise indicated, the use of a compound in treatment means that an amount of the compound, generally presented as a component of a formulation that comprises other excipients, is administered in aliquots of an amount, and at time intervals, which provides and maintains at least a therapeutic serum level of at least one pharmaceutically active form of the compound over the time interval between dose administration. 
         [0333]    Absolute stereochemistry is illustrated by the use of hashed and solid wedge bonds. As shown in Illus-I and Illus-II. Accordingly, the methyl group of Illus-I is emerging from the page of the paper and the ethyl group in Illus-II is descending into the page, where the cyclohexene ring resides within the plane of the paper. It is assumed that the hydrogen on the same carbon as the methyl group of Illus-I descends into the page and the hydrogen on the same carbon as the ethyl group of Illus-II emerges from the page. The convention is the same where both a hashed and solid rectangle are appended to the same carbon as in Illus-III, the Methyl group is emerging from the plane of the paper and the ethyl group is descending into the plane of the paper with the cyclohexene ring in the plane of the paper.

As will be appreciated by the ordinarily skilled artisan, excipients are any constituent which adapts the composition to a particular route of administration or aids the processing of a composition into a dosage form without itself exerting an active pharmaceutical effect. The bulk composition and each individual dosage unit can contain fixed amounts of the afore-said “more than one pharmaceutically active agents”. The bulk composition is material that has not yet been formed into individual dosage units. 
         [0380]    This invention also includes the compounds of this invention in isolated and purified form obtained by routine techniques. Polymorphic forms of the compounds of Formula GI, and of the salts thereof, are intended to be included in the present invention. Certain compounds of the invention may exist in different isomeric (e.g., enantiomers, diastereoisomers, atropisomers) forms. The invention contemplates all such isomers both in pure form and in admixture, including racemic mixtures. 
         [0381]    All stereoisomers (for example, geometric isomers, optical isomers and the like) of the present compounds (including prodrugs of compounds of the invention as well as the salts and solvates of the inventive compounds and their prodrugs), such as those which may exist due to asymmetric carbons present in a compound of the invention, and including enantiomeric forms (which may exist even in the absence of asymmetric carbons), rotameric forms, atropisomers, and diastereomeric forms, are contemplated within the scope of this invention. Individual stereoisomers of the compounds of the invention may be isolated in a pure form, for example, substantially free of other isomers, or may be isolated as an admixture of two or more stereoisomers or as a racemate. The chiral centers of the present invention can have the S or R configuration as defined by the  IUPAC  1974 Recommendations. The use of the terms “salt”, “solvate” “prodrug” and the like, is intended to equally apply to salts, solvates and prodrugs of isolated enantiomers, stereoisomer pairs or groups, rotamers, tautomers, or racemates of the inventive compounds. 
         [0382]    Where diasteromeric mixtures can be separated into their individual diastereomers on the basis of their physical chemical differences by methods well known to those skilled in the art, for example, by chiral chromatography and/or fractional crystallization. As is known, enantiomers can also be separated by converting the enantiomeric mixture into a diasteromeric mixture by reaction with an appropriate optically active compound (e.g., chiral auxiliary such as a chiral alcohol or Mosher&#39;s acid chloride), separating the diastereomers and converting (e.g., hydrolyzing) the individually isolated diastereomers to the corresponding enantiomers. 
         [0383]    Where the compounds of the invention form salts by known, ordinary methods, these salts are also within the scope of this invention. Reference to a compound of the invention herein is understood to include reference to salts thereof, unless otherwise indicated. The term “salt(s)”, as employed herein, denotes acidic salts formed with inorganic and/or organic acids, as well as basic salts formed with inorganic and/or organic bases. In addition, when a compound of the invention contains both a basic moiety, for example, but not limited to, a nitrogen atom, for example, an amine, pyridine or imidazole, and an acidic moiety, for example, but not limited to a carboxylic acid, zwitterions (“inner salts”) may be formed and are included within the term “salt(s)” as used herein. Pharmaceutically acceptable (i.e., non-toxic, physiologically acceptable salts) are preferred. Salts of the compounds of the invention may be formed, for example, by reacting a compound of the invention with an amount of acid or base, for example, an equivalent amount, in a medium in which the salt precipitates or in an aqueous medium wherein the product is obtained by lyophilization. Acids (and bases) which are generally considered suitable for the formation of pharmaceutically useful salts from basic (or acidic) pharmaceutical compounds are discussed, for example, by S.

Gould,  International J. of Pharmaceutics  (1986) 33 201-217; Anderson et al,  The Practice of Medicinal Chemistry  (1996), Academic Press, New York; in  The Orange Book  (Food &amp; Drug Administration, Washington, D.C. on their website); and P.

         [0388]    Where a compound of the invention can exist in more than one such form, representation or presentation of one tautomeric form of such compound is considered herein equivalent to presentation of all the tautomeric forms in which the compound exists. 
         [0389]    The term “purified”, “in purified form” or “in isolated and purified form” for a compound refers to the physical state of said compound after being isolated from a synthetic process or natural source or combination thereof. Thus, the term “purified”, “in purified form” or “in isolated and purified form” for a compound refers to the physical state of said compound after being obtained from a purification process or processes described herein or well known to the skilled artisan, and in sufficient purity to be characterized by standard analytical techniques described herein or well known to the skilled artisan. 
         [0390]    A functional group in a compound termed “protected” means that the group is in modified form to preclude undesired side reactions at the protected site when the compound is subjected to a reaction. Suitable protecting groups will be recognized by those with ordinary skill in the art as well as by reference to standard textbooks such as, for example, T. W. Greene et al,  Protective Groups in organic Synthesis  (1991), Wiley, New York. 
         [0391]    When a variable (e.g., aryl, heterocycl, R 3 , etc.) appears more than once in any moiety or in any compound of the invention, the selection of moieties defining that variable for each occurrence is independent of its definition at every other occurrence unless specified otherwise in the variable definition. 
         [0392]    As used herein, the term “composition” is intended to encompass a product comprising the specified ingredients in the specified amounts, and any product which results, directly or indirectly, from combination of the specified ingredients in the specified amounts. 
         [0393]    The present invention also embraces isotopically-labeled compounds of the present invention which are structurally identical to those recited herein, but for the fact that a statistically significant percentage of one or more atoms in that form of the compound are replaced by an atom having an atomic mass or mass number different from the atomic mass or mass number of the most abundant isotope usually found in nature, thus altering the naturally occurring abundance of that isotope present in a compound of the invention. Examples of isotopes suitable for inclusion in the compounds of the invention include isotopes of hydrogen (such as  2 H and  3 H), carbon (such as  11 C,  13 C and  14 C), nitrogen (such as  13 N and  15 N), oxygen (such as  15 O,  17 O and  18 O), phosphorus (such as  32 P), sulfur (such as  35 S), fluorine (such as  18 F), iodine (such as  123 I and  125 I) and chlorine (such as  36 Cl). It will be appreciated that other isotopes may be incorporated by known means also. 
         [0394]    Certain isotopically-labeled compounds of the invention (e.g., those labeled with  3 H and  14 C) are useful in compound and/or substrate tissue distribution assays. Tritiated (i.e., 3H) and carbon-14 (i.e.,  14 C) isotopes are particularly useful for their ease of preparation and detection. Further, substitution with heavier isotopes such as deuterium (i.e.,  2 H) may afford certain therapeutic advantages resulting from greater metabolic stability (e.g., increased in vivo half-life or reduced dosage requirements) and hence may be preferred in some circumstances. Isotopically labeled compounds of the invention can generally be prepared by following procedures analogous to those disclosed in the Schemes and/or in the Examples herein below, by substituting an appropriate isotopically labeled reagent for a non-isotopically labeled reagent. Such compounds are included also in the present invention. 
         [0395]    In one aspect, as mentioned above, the present invention provides pharmaceutical formulations (pharmaceutical compositions) for use in antagonizing A 2A  receptors an to potentially treat central nervous system (CNS) disorders, for example, movement disorders associated with Parkinson&#39;s disease or the treatment thereof, wherein the compositions comprising at least one compound, or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, of Formula GI, as defined herein. 
         [0396]    As mentioned above, in one aspect the invention provides pharmaceutical formulations (pharmaceutical compositions) suitable for use in blocking adenosine A2a receptors found in the basal ganglia, comprising at least one compound of Formula GI presented above, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier (described below). It will be appreciated that pharmaceutically formulations of the invention may comprise more than one compound of the invention, for example, the combination of two or three compounds of the invention, each present by adding to the formulation the desired amount of the compound in a pharmaceutically acceptably pure form. It will be appreciated that compositions of the invention may comprise, in addition to one or more of compounds of the invention, one or more other compounds which also have pharmacological activity, for example, as described herein below. 
         [0397]    While formulations of the invention may be employed in bulk form, it will be appreciated that for most applications the inventive formulations will be incorporated into a dosage form suitable for administration to a patient, each dosage form comprising an amount of the selected formulation which contains an effective amount of said one or more compounds of the invention. Examples of suitable dosage forms include, but are not limited to, dosage forms adapted for: (i) oral administration, e.g., a liquid, gel, powder, solid or semi-solid pharmaceutical composition which is loaded into a capsule or pressed into a tablet and may comprise additionally one or more coatings which modify its release properties, for example, coatings which impart delayed release or formulations which have extended release properties; (ii) a dosage form adapted for intramuscular administration (IM), for example, an injectable solution or suspension, and which may be adapted to form a depot having extended release properties; (iii) a dosage form adapted for intravenous administration (IV), for example, a solution or suspension, for example, as an IV solution or a concentrate to be injected into a saline IV bag; (iv) a dosage form adapted for administration through tissues of the oral cavity, for example, a rapidly dissolving tablet, a lozenge, a solution, a gel, a sachette or a needle array suitable for providing intramucosal administration; (v) a dosage form adapted for administration via the mucosa of the nasal or upper respiratory cavity, for example a solution, suspension or emulsion formulation for dispersion in the nose or airway; (vi) a dosage form adapted for transdermal administration, for example, a patch, cream or gel; (vii) a dosage form adapted for intradermal administration, for example, a microneedle array; and (viii) a dosage form adapted for delivery via rectal or vaginal mucosa, for example, a suppository. 
         [0398]    For preparing pharmaceutical compositions from the compounds described by this invention, generally pharmaceutically active compounds are combined with one or more pharmaceutically inactive excipients. These pharmaceutically inactive excipients impart to the composition properties which make it easier to handle or process, for example, lubricants or pressing aids in powdered medicaments intended to be tableted, or adapt the formulation to a desired route of administration, for example, excipients which provide a formulation for oral administration, for example, via absorption from the gastrointestinal tract, transdermal or transmucosal administration, for example, via adhesive skin “patch” or buccal administration, or injection, for example, intramuscular or intravenous, routes of administration. These excipients are collectively termed herein “a carrier”. 
         [0399]    Pharmaceutical compositions can be solid, semi-solid or liquid. Solid form preparations can be adapted to a variety of modes of administration and include powders, dispersible granules, mini-tablets, beads, and the like for example, for tableting, encapsulation, or direct administration. Typically formulations may comprise up to about 95 percent active ingredient, although formulations with greater amounts may be prepared. 
         [0400]    Liquid form preparations include solutions, suspensions and emulsions. Examples of liquid forms of medicament include, but are not limited to, water or water/surfactant mixtures, for example a water-propylene glycol solution, which can be employed in the preparation of formulations intended, for example, for parenteral injection, for example, as a solvent or as a suspending medium for the preparation of suspensions and emulsions where a medicament comprises constituents which are insoluble in water or water/surfactant mixtures. Liquid form preparations may also include solutions or suspensions for intranasal administration and may also include, for example, viscosity modifiers to adapt the formulation for application to particular mucosa tissues accessible via nasal administration. 
         [0401]    Aerosol preparations, for example, suitable for administration via inhalation or via nasal mucosa, may include solutions and solids in powder form, which may be in combination with a pharmaceutically acceptable propellant, for example, an inert compressed gas, e.g. nitrogen. Also included are solid form preparations which are intended to be converted, shortly before use, to a suspension or a solution, for example, for oral or parenteral administration. Examples of such solid forms include freeze dried formulations and liquid formulations adsorbed into a solid absorbent medium. 
         [0402]    The compounds of the invention may also be deliverable transdermally or transmucosally, for example, from a liquid, suppository, cream, foam, gel, or rapidly dissolving solid form. It will be appreciated that transdermal compositions can take also the form of creams, lotions, aerosols and/or emulsions and can be provided in a unit dosage form which includes a transdermal patch of any know in the art, for example, a patch which incorporates either a matrix comprising the pharmaceutically active compound or a reservoir which comprises a solid or liquid form of the pharmaceutically active compound. 
         [0403]    Examples of pharmaceutically acceptable carriers and methods of manufacture for various compositions mentioned above may be found in A. Gennaro (ed.), Remington: The Science and Practice of Pharmacy, 20 th  Edition, (2000), Lippincott Williams &amp; Wilkins, Baltimore, Md. 
         [0404]    Preferably, the pharmaceutical preparation is in a unit dosage form. In such form, the preparations subdivided into suitably sized unit doses containing appropriate quantities of the active component, e.g., an effective amount to achieve the desired purpose. 
         [0405]    The actual dosage employed may be varied depending upon the requirements of the patient and the severity of the condition being treated. Determination of the proper dosage regimen for a particular situation is within the skill in the art. For convenience, the total daily dosage may be divided and administered in portions during the day as required. 
         [0406]    In another embodiment the present invention provides for use of the compounds described herein for the potential treatment, management, alleviation or amelioration of conditions or disease states which can be, or are believed to be, treated, managed, alleviated or ameliorated by specific blocking of adenosine A2a receptors, for example, central nervous system diseases or disorders, including but not limited to the treatment of movement disorders (e.g., tremors, bradykinesias, gait, dystonias, dyskinesias, tardive dyskinesias, other extrapyramidal syndromes, Parkinson&#39;s disease and disorders associated with Parkinson&#39;s disease). The compounds of the invention also have the potential for use in preventing or lessening the effect of drugs that cause movement disorders. 
         [0407]    In accordance with the present invention, blocking adenosine A2a receptors is accomplished by administering to a patient in need of such therapy an effective amount of one or more compounds of the invention, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof. 
         [0408]    In some embodiments it is preferred for the compound to be administered in the form of a pharmaceutical composition comprising the compound of the invention, or a salt thereof, and at least one pharmaceutically acceptable carrier (described below). It will be appreciated that pharmaceutically formulations of the invention may comprise more than one compound of the invention or a salt thereof, for example, the combination of two or three compounds of the invention, each present by adding to the formulation the desired amount of the compound or a salt thereof which has been isolated in a pharmaceutically acceptably pure form. 
         [0409]    As mentioned above, administration of a compound of the invention to effect antagonism of A2a receptor sites, which is believed to be beneficial in the treatment of central nervous system diseases is preferably accomplished by incorporating the compound into a pharmaceutical formulation incorporated into a dosage form, for example, one of the above-described dosage forms comprising an effective amount of at least one compound of the invention (e.g., 1, 2 or 3, or 1 or 2, or 1, and usually 1 compound of the invention), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, for example. Methods for determining safe and effective administration of compounds which are pharmaceutically active, for example, a compound of the invention, are known to those skilled in the art, for example, as described in the standard literature, for example, as described in the “Physicians&#39; Desk Reference” (PDR), e.g., 1996 edition (Medical Economics Company, Montvale, N.J. 07645-1742, USA), the Physician&#39;s Desk Reference, 56 th  Edition, 2002 (published by Medical Economics company, Inc. Montvale, N.J. 07645-1742), or the Physician&#39;s Desk Reference, 57 th  Edition, 2003 (published by Thompson PDR, Montvale, N.J. 07645-1742); the disclosures of which is incorporated herein by reference thereto. The amount and frequency of administration of the compounds of the invention and/or the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof will be regulated according to the judgment of the attending clinician considering such factors as age, condition and size of the patient as well as severity of the symptoms being treated. Compounds of the instant invention can be administered at a total daily dosage of up to 1,000 mg, which can be administered in one daily dose or can be divided into two to four doses per day. 
         [0410]    In general, in whatever form administered, the dosage form administered will contain an amount of at least one compound of the invention, or a salt thereof, which will provide a therapeutically effective serum level of the compound in some form for a period of at least 2 hours, preferably at least four hours, and preferably longer. In general, as is known in the art, dosages of a pharmaceutical composition providing a therapeutically effective serum level of a compound of the invention, e.g., a compound of Formula GI or GII, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, can be spaced in time to provide serum level meeting or exceeding the minimum therapeutically effective serum level on a continuous basis throughout the period during which treatment is administered. As will be appreciated the dosage form administered may also be in a form providing an extended release period for the pharmaceutically active compound which will provide a therapeutic serum level for a longer period, necessitating less frequent dosage intervals. As mentioned above, a composition of the invention can incorporate additional pharmaceutically active components or be administered simultaneously, contemporaneously, or sequentially with other pharmaceutically active compositions as may be additionally needed in the course of providing treatment. Such additional therapeutic agents can include compounds with dopaminergic activity, for example, i) L-DOPA; ii) DOPA decarboxylase inhibitors; and iii) COMT inhibitors. 
         [0411]    Those skilled in the art will appreciate that treatment protocols utilizing at least one compound of the invention, for example, a compound of Formula GI or GII, can be varied according to the needs of the subject or patient. Thus, compounds of the invention used in the methods of this invention can be administered in variations of the protocols described above. For example, the compounds of this invention can be administered discontinuously rather than continuously during the treatment cycle.

       Step A 
       [0419]    To a suspension of 1 (3 g, 17.95 mmol) in water (100 mL) and acetic acid (1.10 mL, 19.20 mmol) at 55-60° C. was added an aqueous solution (7 mL) of potassium cyanate (3.49 g, 43.1 mmol). After 5 hours at 55-60° C., the reaction was cooled to RT. Solid sodium hydroxide (31.6 g, 790 mmol, 35-44 equiv.) as one portion was added quickly to the reaction mixture. It was cooled down to 0° C., and then concentrated HCl (around 38 mL) was added slowly to lower the pH 4-5 at 0° C., precipitating a white solid. The solid was isolated by filtration, washed with water (500 mL), and dried under vacuum to afford the desired product, 2. LC/MS=193 [M+1]. 
       Step B 
       [0420]    A stirred suspension of 2 (2.0 g, 10.41 mmol) in POCl 3  (9.70 mL, 104 mmol) was heated to 105° C. for 16 hours. The reaction mixture was cooled down and concentrated in vacuo to afford a solid. This crude product was suspended in ethyl acetate (500 mL) and charged with sodium bicarbonate. The organic layer was washed with more sodium bicarbonate solution, brine, dried (magnesium sulfate), filtered and concentrated to afford the desired product 3 as a pale yellow solid. LC/MS=230 [M+1]. 
       Step C 
       [0421]    To a stirred THF (664 mL) solution of 3 (15.2 g, 66.4 mmol) was added DIPEA/diisopropylethylamine (13.9 mL, 80 mmol) and hydrazide 4 (5.98 g, 66.4 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated to 65° C. for 16 hours. It was cooled to RT and the solvent was evaporated. The residue was dissolved in DCM, and after being stirred for 30 minutes, the mixture was filtered to afford a pale yellow precipitate. It was washed with DCM and dried under vacuum to afford the desired product 5. LC/MS=297 [M+1]. 
       Step D 
       [0422]    To a stirred dioxane (520 mL) suspension of 5 (14.7 g, 52.0 mmol) was added DIPEA (22.7 mL, 130 mmol) and 2,4-dimethoxybenzylamine (10.2 mL, 67.6 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated to 100° C. for 16 hours. After being cooled to room temperature, the reaction mixture was filtered. The precipitate was washed with dioxane and hexane, and dried in vacuo to afford the desired product 6 as a white solid. LC/MS=428 [M+1]. 
       Step E 
       [0423]    To a sealed tube of 6 (20.3 g, 49.1 mmol) was added BSTA (144 mL, 589 mmol). The tube was sealed and the reaction mixture was heated to 130° C. for 16 hours. After cooling down, BSTA was removed from the reaction mixture under rotary evaporator in 70° C. water bath for 1 hour. The crude material was dissolved in methanol (170 mL) and charged with concentrated hydrochloric acid (2.5 mL). After 10 minutes, the reaction mixture was filtered. The precipitate was washed with water (5×50 mL), DCM (2×50 mL), and water. It was then under vacuum to afford the desired product 7 as a pale yellow powder. LC/MS=410 [M+1]. 
       Step F 
       [0424]    To a stirred DCM (73 mL) solution of 7 (3 g, 7.33 mmol) was added triethylamine (3.06 mL, 21.98 mmol) and methanesulfonyl chloride (0.856 mL, 10.99 mmol) at 0° C. The reaction mixture was stirred at RT for 2 hours. Saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate was added, and the reaction mixture was extracted with DCM. The organic layer was dried (magnesium sulfate), filtered and concentrated. The crude product was purified by column chromatography (ethyl acetate/hexanes) to give the desired product 8. LC/MS=488 [M+1]. 
       Step G 
       [0425]    To a round bottom flask of 8 (3.5 g, 7.18 mmol) was added TFA (71.8 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at 50° C. for 16 hours and cooled down to RT. TFA was evaporated, and the residue was charged with DCM and saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution. The precipitate was collected by filtration, and the aqueous layer was extracted with DCM (×5). The organic extracts were combined with the precipitate and concentrated in vacuo. The crude solid was purified by column chromatography (100% ethyl acetate to 10% MeOH/DCM) to afford the desired product 9 as a pale yellow solid. LC/MS=338 [M+1]. 
       Step H 
       [0426]    To a stirred DMF (637 μL) solution of 9 (100 mg, 0.318 mmol) was added 3-(methylthio)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyrazine (136 mg, 0.477 mmol), DIPEA (111 μL, 0.637 mmol), and potassium iodide (106 mg, 0.637 mmol). The reaction mixture was heated to 60° C. for 16 hours. After cooling, the reaction mixture was charged with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution and extracted with DCM. The organic layer was dried (magnesium sulfate), filtered and concentrated. The crude product was purified by column chromatography (1/1 EtOAc/Hex to 10% MeOH/DCM) to give the compound Ex-1, LC/MS=412 [M+1]

         [0429]    To a microwave tube was added 2-(2-(2-chloro-5H-pyrrolo[3,4-b]pyridin-6(7H)-yl)ethyl)-7-methoxy-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]quinazolin-5-amine (compound Ex-5, prepared in Example 1, (30 mg, 0.076 mmol), 1-methylpiperazine (1.5 mL, 13.53 mmol), and NMP (500 μL). The reaction mixture was microwaved at 200° C. for 1.5 hr. The crude reaction mixture was purified by reverse phase column (Water+0.1% TFA/ACN+0.1% TFA) to give the desired product, Ex-63, LC/MS=474 [M+1]. 
         [0430]    The compounds presented in Table VII were prepared by using methods described in Scheme 2 and Example 2. These compounds were characterized by LC/MS, which data is also presented in Table VII.

       Example 7 
     Preparation of racemic (+)-2-(3,3-difluoro-2-(5H-pyrrolo[3,4-b]pyridin-6(7H)-yl)propyl)-7-methoxy-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]quinazolin-5-amine (Ex-101) 
       [0463]    
       
                 
         
             
             
         
       
     
       Step A: methyl 4,4-difluoro-3-(5H-pyrrolo[3,4-b]pyridin-6(7H)-yl)butanoate 
       [0464]    To a solution of (E)-methyl 4,4-difluorobut-2-enoate (600 mg, 4.99 mmol) in acetonitrile (20 mL) was added 6,7-dihydro-5H-pyrrolo[3,4-b]pyridine (1.1 g, 7.49 mmol), followed by DBU (0.373 mL, 2.497 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 18 h and then concentrated in vacuo to afford the title compound. 
       Step B: (±)-4,4-difluoro-3-(5H-pyrrolo[3,4-b]pyridin-6(7H)-yl)butanehydrazide 
       [0465]    To an ethanol (50 mL) solution of methyl 4,4-difluoro-3-(5H-pyrrolo[3,4-b]pyridin-6(7H)-yl)butanoate (step A, 1.35 g, 4.99 mmol) was added hydrazine hydrate (2.423 mL, 49.9 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred in a sealed tube at 80° C. for 4 h and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by flash chromatography (CH 2 Cl 2 :MeOH 10:1 to CH 2 Cl 2 :MeOH 5:1) to yield the title compound which was characterized by LC/MS. LC/MS=257 [M+1]. 
       Step C: (±)-N′-(2-amino-8-methoxyquinazolin-4-yl)-4,4-difluoro-3-(5H-pyrrolo[3,4-b]pyridin-6(7H)-yl)butanehydrazide  
       [0466]    To a THF (50 mL) suspension of N-(8-methoxy-4-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)quinazolin-2-yl)acetamide (600 mg, 2.111 mmol) was added (±)-4,4-difluoro-3-(5H-pyrrolo[3,4-b]pyridin-6(7H)-yl)butanehydrazide prepared in step B (595 mg, 2.322 mmol) and DIPEA (0.441 mL, 2.53 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at 60° C. for 3 hours, and then concentrated in vacuo. To a MeOH (50 mL) and water (50 mL) suspension of the residue was added potassium carbonate (2.2 g, 15.9 mmol). The mixture was stirred in a sealed tube at 80° C. until all the starting material was consumed. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo and diluted with dichloromethane and methanol. The resulting precipitate was filtered off, and the filtrate was then concentrated in vacuo. The resulting residue was purified by flash chromatography (dichloromethane:methanol 10:1) to yield the title compound which was characterized by LC/MS. LC/MS=430 [M+1]. 
       Step D: (±)-2-(3,3-difluoro-2-(5H-pyrrolo[3,4-b]pyridin-6(7H)-yl)propyl)-7-methoxy-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]quinazolin-5-amine 
       [0467]    To (±)-N′-(2-amino-8-methoxyquinazolin-4-yl)-4,4-difluoro-3-(5H-pyrrolo[3,4-b]pyridin-6(7H)-yl)butanehydrazide (step C, 1.1 g, 2.56 mmol) was added BSTA (6.35 mL, 25.6 mmol). The suspension was stirred at 120° C. for 2 hr. The reaction mixture was concentrated in vacuo with heating. The residue was purified by flash chromatography (dichloromethane:methanol 20:1) to afford compound Ex-101 which was characterized using, LC/MS=412 [M+1]. 
         [0468]    Using the procedure of Example 7 and Scheme 7, the compounds reported in Table XIV were prepared in the racemic form. The enantiomeric forms were separated through chiral HPLC.

       Step A: Preparation of 2-(chloromethyl)-7-methoxy-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]-quinazolin-5-amine 
       [0470]    (5-amino-7-methoxy-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]quinazolin-2-yl)methanol (4 g, 15.4 mmol, prepared in accordance with Example 10) was suspended in DCM (50 mL) and SOCl 2  (50 ml). The mixture was stirred at RT for 1 h, concentrated in vacuo to remove SOCl 2  completely. The residue was suspended in DCM/Hex (1:2), cooled to 0° C., filtered and dried to afford the titled compound. LC/MS=264 [M+1]. 
       Step B: 2-((5-fluoroisoindolin-2-yl)methyl)-7-methoxy-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]-quinazolin-5-amine 
       [0471]    The “right-side” precursor 2-(chloromethyl)-7-methoxy-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]quinazolin-5-amine (150 mg, 0.54 mmol), and “left-side” precursor 5-fluoroisoindoline (92 mg, 1.1 mmol) were placed in a reaction vessel with DIPEA (105 mg, 0.81 mmol) and KI (269 mg, 1.62 mmol) in DMF (50 mL) and the mixture was stirred at 80° C. for 18 h. The mixture was cooled to RT, diluted with DCM, washed with H 2 O (3×), dried and concentrated. Chromatography purification MeOH/DCM (1:30-1:20-1:10) afforded the compound Ex-117, which was characterized using LC/MS=365 [M+1]. 
         [0472]    The process of Scheme 8 was repeated with an appropriate “left-side” precursor to provide the compounds of Table XV.

         [0474]    Diisopropylethyl amine (17 mg; 0.13 mmol) was added to an amber colored solution of 7-bromo-2-(chloromethyl)-N-(2,4-dimethoxybenzyl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]quinazolin-5-amine (20 mg; 0.043 mmol, prepared in accordance with Scheme 1, above, using 2-amino-3-bromo-benzoic acid in lieu of 2 amino-3-methoxy benzoic acid) and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-[1,7]-naphthyridine (20 mg; 0.095 mmol) in dry DMF (1 mL) and the reaction mixture was stirred for 20 hr at room temperature. After verifying the absence of the tricyclic chloride by MS, the reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc and washed with water, saturated NH 4 Cl solution and brine. Concentration and purification by preparative TLC (5% CH 3 OH in CH 2 Cl 2 ) served to isolate compound Ex-194-DMB (DMB-protected analog of compound Ex-194) as a white solid which was characterized using LC-MS: 560 (M + ); R t =2.52. 
         [0475]    The DMB protected product from step-1 was dissolved in CH 2 Cl 2 -TFA (0.5 mL each), stirred and heated at 55° C. for 4 hr. After verifying absence of SM and presence of product (MH=410/412)), CH 2 Cl 2  and TFA were removed on the rotovap. Toluene (2×5 mL) was added and removed in vacuo followed by 7% NH3 in CH3OH which was also removed in vacuo. The resulting residue was applied to a prep plate and developed with 7% NH 3 -methanol-CH 2 Cl 2  (5:95). The uv-active band of medium polarity was isolated and the product extracted with the same solvent system. Concentration of the extract in vacuo gave compound Ex-194 as white solid. 
         [0476]    The process of Scheme 9 was repeated with an appropriate “left-side” precursor to provide the compound of Table XVI.

       Step-1 
       [0478]    A mixture of 7-Bromo-5-(2,4-dimethoxybenzyl amino)-2-hydroxymethyl-[1,2,4]-triazolo[1,5-c]quinazoline (200 mg; 0.45 mmol, prepared in accordance with Schemes 1 and 7, above, using 2-amino-3-bromo-benzoic acid starting material in lieu of 2 amino-3-methoxy benzoic acid), zinc cyanide (31.7 mg; 0.27 mmol) and PdCl 2 (dppf) 2 :CH 2 Cl 2  were dissolved in DMF (1 mL) and water (0.1 mL). The resulting clear red solution was degassed with nitrogen, stirred and heated at 120° C. for 14 hr. MS analysis of the reaction mixture showed absence of the starting bromo tricyclic alcohol and presence of the product nitrile (MH + =391). The reaction mixture was quenched with water and organics were extracted with EtOAc. The organic extract was further washed with water, brine and dried over solid anhydrous Na 2 SO 4 . The crude product was purified by preparative TLC, developing the plate with EtOAc/CH 2 Cl 2  (1:1). The 7-cyano tricyclic alcohol was isolated as beige solid. 
       Step-2 
       [0479]    A solution of compound (140 mg; 0.36 mmol) in CH 2 Cl 2  (2 mL) and CDCl 3  (2 mL) was cooled in an ice bath and treated sequentially with Et 3 N (40 mg; 55 uL; 0.395 mmol) and MsCl (49 mg; 0.43 mmol), taking care not to use even a slight excess of Et 3 N to avoid quaternary salt formation. The ice bath was removed after 5 minutes and the reaction mixture was stirred at RT for 45 minutes when the analysis (TLC, MS) showed absence of alcohol. The reaction mixture was diluted with EtOAc and washed with water, brine, dried and concentrated to obtain the crude mesylate. 
       Step-3 
       [0480]    The crude mesylate was redissolved in acetone (3 mL), treated with solid LiCl (76 mg; 1.79 mmol) and was stirred with heating at 58° C. for 3 hr. After confirming the complete formation of the tricyclic chloride (MH + =408/410), the reaction mixture was cooled to RT and acetone was removed under house vacuum. The residue was dissolved in CH 2 Cl 2 :CHCl 3  (4:1) and washed with water, brine and concentrated to obtain 140 mg of a beige solid. The crude product thus obtained was purified by preparative TLC (30% EtOAc—CH 2 Cl 2 ) to furnish Intermediate-12 as off-white solid. 
         [0481]    Intermediate-12, prepared above, was used to prepare compounds of the invention in accordance with Scheme 10a: 
         [0000]    
       
                 
         
             
             
         
       
     
       Step-1 
       [0482]    A clear amber solution of 7-cyano tricyclic chloride 12 previously prepared (110 mg; 0.27 mmol), 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1,7-naphthyridine (85 mg; 0.37 mmol) and Hunig&#39;s base (0.14 mL; 104 mg; 0.807 mmol) in anhydrous DMF (1 mL) was stirred and heated at 80° C. for 18 hr. The reaction mixture was cooled to RT, diluted with water and extracted with EtOAc. The organic extract was washed with water and brine. Combined aqueous layers were back extracted with CH 2 Cl 2 . Both organic extracts were combined, dried over solid anhydrous Na 2 SO 4  and concentrated to get 140 mg of beige solid. The crude product was purified by preparative TLC (5% CH 3 OH—CH 2 Cl 2 ) and the major fluorescent band, which was the 2,4-dimethoxybenzyl protected form of compound Ex-196, was isolated as an off-white solid, MS=507 (MH + ). 
       Step-2 
       [0483]    The DMB-protected form of compound Ex-196, prepared above, was dissolved in CH 2 Cl 2 :TFA (1 mL each) and stirred at 57° C. for 4 hr. The clear reaction mixture had become deep purple and MS showed complete deprotection of the DMB group to give the compound Ex-196, 5-amino-2-((5,6-dihydro-1,7-naphthyridin-7(8H)-yl)methyl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]quinazoline-7-carbonitrile. The solvents were removed on a rotary evaporator and the residual TFA was removed by azeotrope formation with toluene to give a yellow sticky semi-solid. This material was treated with 7% NH 3  in methanol, stirred for 10 minutes and concentrated to obtain a beige solid. The crude product was purified by preparative TLC (CH 2 Cl 2  with 7% NH 3  in methanol, 96:4) to afford compound Ex-196 as an off-white solid (77 mg; 87%). LC-MS: 357 (MH + ); R t =2.02. 
         [0484]    As shown in Table XVII, compound Ex-197 was prepared using this same procedure.

       A2a Activity of Compounds of the Invention 
       [0557]    Binding affinities of compounds of the invention for the human A2a receptor were determined in a competition binding assay using Scintillation Proximity technology. Thus, 0.3 μg of membranes from HEK293 cells expressing the human A2a receptor were incubated with a compound of the invention at concentrations ranging from 3000 nM to 0.15 nM in a reaction mixture containing also 0.5 nM of a tritiated form of 5-amino-7-[2-phenethyl]-2-(furan-2-yl)-7H-pyrazolo[4,3-e][1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidine (the tritiated compound) and 100 μg of wheat germ agglutin-coated yttrium silicate SPA beads for one hour at room temperature with agitation. The beads were then allowed to settle to the bottom of the wells for 1 hr, after which the membrane-associated radioactivity was determined by scintillation counting in a TopCount microplate reader. Ki values were determined using the Cheng-Prusoff equation.

         [0566]    Transfer 50 nl of compound into a 384-well OptiPlate (Perkin Elmer). 
         [0567]    Typically, final concentrations of compound used in the assay ranged from 3000 nM to 0.152 nM. 
       Radioisotope 
       [0568]    Dilute a solution of the Tritiated compound to 1.25 nM in assay buffer. This is a 2.5× solution. The final concentration in the assay is 0.5 nM. Calculate the concentration by counting two 5 μl aliquots. 
       Membrane Preparation  
       [0569]    Use 0.25 ug of membrane/well. Dilute membranes to 9.7 g/ml in assay buffer. Treat with 20 ug/ml adenosine deaminase (ADA) for 15 minutes at room temperature to degrade endogenous adenosine. 
       Membrane-Bead Mixture 
       [0570]    Use 100 μg/well wheat germ agglutinin-coated yttrium silicate SPA beads. 
         [0571]    Mix ADA-treated membranes and SPA beads together for 30 min prior to assay. 
       Assay Assembly 
       [0572]    To the Perkin-Elmer Optiplate-384 containing the compound titration add 20 μl of 2.5× solution of the Tritiated compound and 30 μl of the membrane-bead mixture. Incubate for one hour at room temperature with agitation.

       Calculations 
       [0576]    A curve fitting program (i.e., Prism, Activity Base, Chemcart) is used to determine the EC50. The Ki value is calculated using the Cheng-Prusoff equation: 
         [0000]        Ki=EC 50/(1+(radioligand concentration/ Kd )). 
         [0577]    Using the foregoing assay method, the following results were obtained using various of the compounds of the invention described herein. Each example compound tested is reported in the following format: Example number: A2a EC50 reported in nM.
