     TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present invention relates optionally substituted (5- or 7-amino)-3,4-dihydro-(optionally 4-oxo, 4-thioxo or 4-imino)-1H-pyrrolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-2(6H)-ones, preferably a compound of Formula I as described below, processes for their production, their use as pharmaceuticals and pharmaceutical compositions comprising them. Of particular interest are novel compounds useful as inhibitors of phosphodiesterase 1 (PDE1), e.g., in the treatment of diseases involving disorders of the dopamine D1 receptor intracellular pathway, such as Parkinson&#39;s disease, depression, narcolepsy, damage to cognitive function, e.g., in schizophrenia, or disorders that may be ameliorated through enhanced progesterone-signaling pathway, e.g., female sexual dysfunction. 
     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     Eleven families of phosphodiesterases (PDEs) have been identified but only PDEs in Family I, the Ca 2+ -calmodulin-dependent phosphodiesterases (CaM-PDEs), have been shown to mediate both the calcium and cyclic nucleotide (e.g. cAMP and cGMP) signaling pathways. The three known CaM-PDE genes, PDE1A, PDE1B, and PDE1C, are all expressed in central nervous system tissue. PDE1A is expressed throughout the brain with higher levels of expression in the CA1 to CA3 layers of the hippocampus and cerebellum and at a low level in the striatum. PDE1A is also expressed in the lung and heart. PDE1B is predominately expressed in the striatum, dentate gyrus, olfactory tract and cerebellum, and its expression correlates with brain regions having high levels of dopaminergic innervation. Although PDE1B is primarily expressed in the central nervous system, it may be detected in the heart. PDE1C is primarily expressed in olfactory epithelium, cerebellar granule cells, and striatum. PDE1C is also expressed in the heart and vascular smooth muscle. 
     Cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases decrease intracellular cAMP and cGMP signaling by hydrolyzing these cyclic nucleotides to their respective inactive 5′-monophosphates (5′AMP and 5′GMP). CaM-PDEs play a critical role in mediating signal transduction in brain cells, particularly within an area of the brain known as the basal ganglia or striatum. For example, NMDA-type glutamate receptor activation and/or dopamine D2 receptor activation result in increased intracellular calcium concentrations, leading to activation of effectors such as calmodulin-dependent kinase II (CaMKII) and calcineurin and to activation of CaM-PDEs, resulting in reduced cAMP and cGMP. Dopamine D1 receptor activation, on the other hand, leads to activation of nucleotide cyclases, resulting in increased cAMP and cGMP. These cyclic nucleotides in turn activate protein kinase A (PKA; cAMP-dependent protein kinase) and/or protein kinase G (PKG; cGMP-dependent protein kinase) that phosphorylate downstream signal transduction pathway elements such as DARPP-32 (dopamine and cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein) and cAMP responsive element binding protein (CREB). Phosphorylated DARPP-32 in turn inhibits the activity of protein phosphates-1 (PP-1), thereby increasing the state of phosphorylation of substrate proteins such as progesterone receptor (PR), leading to induction of physiologic responses. Studies in rodents have suggested that inducing cAMP and cGMP synthesis through activation of dopamine D1 or progesterone receptor enhances progesterone signaling associated with various physiological responses, including the lordosis response associated with receptivity to mating in some rodents. See Mani, et al., Science (2000) 287: 1053, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. 
     CaM-PDEs can therefore affect dopamine-regulated and other intracellular signaling pathways in the basal ganglia (striatum), including but not limited to nitric oxide, noradrenergic, neurotensin, CCK, VIP, serotonin, glutamate (e.g., NMDA receptor, AMPA receptor), GABA, acetylcholine, adenosine (e.g., A2A receptor), cannabinoid receptor, natriuretic peptide (e.g., ANP, BNP, CNP), DARPP-32, and endorphin intracellular signaling pathways. 
     Phosphodiesterase (PDE) activity, in particular, phosphodiesterase 1 (PDE1) activity, functions in brain tissue as a regulator of locomotor activity and learning and memory. PDE1 is a therapeutic target for regulation of intracellular signaling pathways, preferably in the nervous system, including but not limited to a dopamine D1 receptor, dopamine D2 receptor, nitric oxide, noradrenergic, neurotensin, CCK, VIP, serotonin, glutamate (e.g., NMDA receptor, AMPA receptor), GABA, acetylcholine, adenosine (e.g., A2A receptor), cannabinoid receptor, natriuretic peptide (e.g., ANP, BNP, CNP), endorphin intracellular signaling pathway and progesterone signaling pathway. For example, inhibition of PDE1B should act to potentiate the effect of a dopamine D1 agonist by protecting cGMP and cAMP from degradation, and should similarly inhibit dopamine D2 receptor signaling pathways, by inhibiting PDE1 activity. Chronic elevation in intracellular calcium levels is linked to cell death in numerous disorders, particularly in neurodegerative diseases such as Alzheimer&#39;s, Parkinson&#39;s and Huntington&#39;s Diseases and in disorders of the circulatory system leading to stroke and myocardial infarction. PDE1 inhibitors are therefore potentially useful in diseases characterized by reduced dopamine D1 receptor signaling activity, such as Parkinson&#39;s disease, restless leg syndrome, depression, narcolepsy and cognitive impairment. PDE1 inhibitors are also useful in diseases that may be alleviated by the enhancement of progesterone-signaling such as female sexual dysfunction. 
     There is thus a need for compounds that selectively inhibit PDE1 activity, especially PDE1A or PDE1B activity.

     Compounds of the Invention may exist in free or salt form, e.g., as acid addition salts. In this specification unless otherwise indicated, language such as “Compounds of the Invention” is to be understood as embracing the compounds e.g., Compound of Formula I, or any of 1.11.127, a Compound of Formula I(i) or I(ii), a Compound of Formula II, e.g., any of 2.1-2.24, Formula P-A or P-B, or any of 3.1-3.132, in any form, for example, in free or acid addition salt form, or where the compounds contain acidic substituents, in base addition salt form. The Compounds of the Invention are intended for use as pharmaceuticals, therefore pharmaceutically acceptable salts are preferred. Salts which are unsuitable for pharmaceutical uses may be useful, for example, for the isolation or purification of free Compounds of the Invention or their pharmaceutically acceptable salts, are therefore also included. 
     Compounds of the Invention may in some cases also exist in prodrug form. A prodrug form is compound which converts in the body to a Compound of the Invention. For example, when the Compounds of the Invention contain hydroxy or carboxy substituents, these substituents may form physiologically hydrolysable and acceptable esters. As used herein, “physiologically hydrolysable and acceptable ester” means esters of Compounds of the Invention which are hydrolysable under physiological conditions to yield acids (in the case of Compounds of the Invention which have hydroxy substituents) or alcohols (in the case of Compounds of the Invention which have carboxy substituents) which are themselves physiologically tolerable at doses to be administered. Therefore, wherein the Compound of the Invention contains a hydroxy group, for example, Compound-OH, the acyl ester prodrug of such compound, i.e., Compound-O—C(O)—C 1-4 alkyl, can hydrolyze in the body to form physiologically hydrolysable alcohol (Compound-OH) on the one hand and acid on the other (e.g., HOC(O)—C 1-4 alkyl). Alternatively, wherein the Compound of the Invention contains a carboxylic acid, for example, Compound-C(O)OH, the acid ester prodrug of such compound, Compound-C(O)O—C 1-4 alkyl can hydrolyze to form Compound-C(O)OH and HO—C 1-4 alkyl. As will be appreciated, the term thus embraces conventional pharmaceutical prodrug forms. 
     The invention also provides methods of making the Compounds of the Invention and methods of using the Compounds of the Invention for treatment of diseases and disorders as set forth below (especially treatment of diseases characterized by reduced dopamine D1 receptor signaling activity, such as Parkinson&#39;s disease, Tourette&#39;s Syndrome, Autism, fragile X syndrome, ADHD, restless leg syndrome, depression, cognitive impairment of schizophrenia, narcolepsy and diseases that may be alleviated by the enhancement of progesterone-signaling such as female sexual dysfunction), or a disease or disorder such as psychosis or glaucoma). This list is not intended to be exhaustive and may include other diseases and disorders as set forth below. 
     In another embodiment, the invention further provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a Compound of the Invention, e.g., a Compound of Formula I, or any of 1.11.127, or a Compound of Formula I(i) or I(ii), in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, in admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. In another embodiment, the invention further provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising a Compound of the Invention, e.g., a Compound of Formula II, or any of 2.1-2.24, Formula P-A or P-B, or any of 3.1-3.132, in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, in admixture with a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier. 
    
    
     DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION 
     Methods of Making Compounds of the Invention 
     The Compounds of the Invention and their pharmaceutically acceptable salts may be made using the methods as described and exemplified herein and by methods similar thereto and by methods known in the chemical art. Such methods include, but not limited to, those described below. If not commercially available, starting materials for these processes may be made by procedures, which are selected from the chemical art using techniques which are similar or analogous to the synthesis of known compounds. In particular, the intermediates and starting materials for the Compounds of the Invention may be prepared by methods and processes as described in PCT/US2007/070551. All references cited herein are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety. 
     The Compounds of the Invention include their enantiomers, diastereoisomers, tautomers and racemates, as well as their polymorphs, hydrates, solvates and complexes. Some individual compounds within the scope of this invention may contain double bonds. Representations of double bonds in this invention are meant to include both the E and the Z isomer of the double bond. In addition, some compounds within the scope of this invention may contain one or more asymmetric centers. This invention includes the use of any of the optically pure stereoisomers as well as any combination of stereoisomers. 
     It is also intended that the Compounds of the Invention encompass their stable and unstable isotopes. Stable isotopes are nonradioactive isotopes which contain one additional neutron compared to the abundant nuclides of the same species (i.e., element). It is expected that the activity of compounds comprising such isotopes would be retained, and such compound would also have utility for measuring pharmacokinetics of the non-isotopic analogs. For example, the hydrogen atom at a certain position on the Compounds of the Invention may be replaced with deuterium (a stable isotope which is non-raradioactive). Examples of known stable isotopes include, but not limited to, deuterium,  13 C,  15 N,  18 O. Alternatively, unstable isotopes, which are radioactive isotopes which contain additional neutrons compared to the abundant nuclides of the same species (i.e., element), e.g.,  123 I,  131 I,  125 I,  11 C,  18 F, may replace the corresponding abundant species of I, C and F. Another example of useful isotope of the compound of the invention is the  11 C isotope. These radio isotopes are useful for radio-imaging and/or pharmacokinetic studies of the compounds of the invention. 
     Melting points are uncorrected and (dec) indicates decomposition. Temperature are given in degrees Celsius (° C.); unless otherwise stated, operations are carried out at room or ambient temperature, that is, at a temperature in the range of 18-25° C. Chromatography means flash chromatography on silica gel; thin layer chromatography (TLC) is carried out on silica gel plates. NMR data is in the delta values of major diagnostic protons, given in parts per million (ppm) relative to tetramethylsilane (TMS) as an internal standard. Conventional abbreviations for signal shape are used. Coupling constants (J) are given in Hz. For mass spectra (MS), the lowest mass major ion is reported for molecules where isotope splitting results in multiple mass spectral peaks Solvent mixture compositions are given as volume percentages or volume ratios. In cases where the NMR spectra are complex, only diagnostic signals are reported.

comprising administering an effective amount of a Compound of the Invention, e.g., a compound according to any of Formula I or 1-1.127, or a composition comprising a Compound of the Invention, e.g., a compound according to any of Formula I or 1-1.127, to a human or animal patient in need thereof. In another aspect, the invention provides a method of treatment of the conditions disclosed above comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a Compound of Formula II, or any of 2.1-2.24, Formula P-A or P-B, or any of 3.1-3.132, as hereinbefore described, in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, to a human or animal patient in need thereof.
       

     In an especially preferred embodiment, the invention provides methods of treatment or prophylaxis for narcolepsy. In this embodiment, PDE 1 Inhibitors may be used as a sole therapeutic agent, but may also be used in combination or for co-administration with other active agents. Thus, the invention further comprises a method of treating narcolepsy comprising administering simultaneously, sequentially, or contemporaneously administering therapeutically effective amounts of
         (i) a PDE 1 Inhibitor of the Invention, e.g., a compound according to any of Formula I or 1.1-1.127, or I(i) or I(ii); and   (ii) a compound to promote wakefulness or regulate sleep, e.g., selected from (a) central nervous system stimulants-amphetamines and amphetamine like compounds, e.g., methylphenidate, dextroamphetamine, methamphetamine, and pemoline; (b) modafinil, (c) antidepressants, e.g., tricyclics (including imipramine, desipramine, clomipramine, and protriptyline) and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (including fluoxetine and sertraline); and/or (d) gamma hydroxybutyrate (GHB),
 
in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, to a human or animal patient in need thereof. In another embodiment, the invention provides methods of treatment or prophylaxis for narcolepsy as herein before described, wherein the PDE1 inhibitor is in a form of a pharmaceutical composition. In still another embodiment, the methods of treatment or prophylaxis for narcolepsy as hereinbefore described, comprises administering a therapeutically effective amount of a Compound of Formula II, or any of 2.1-2.24, Formula P-A or P-B, or any of 3.1-3.132 as hereinbefore described, in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, as a sole therapeutic agent or use in combination for co-administered with another active agent.
       

     In another embodiment, the invention further provides methods of treatment or prophylaxis of a condition which may be alleviated by the enhancement of the progesterone signaling comprising administering an effective amount of a Compound of the Invention, e.g., a compound according to any of Formula 1-1.127 or Formula I, I(i) or I(ii) in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, to a human or animal patient in need thereof. The invention also provides methods of treatment as disclosed here, comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a Compound of Formula II, or any of 2.1-2.24, Formula P-A or P-B, or any of 3.1-3.132 as hereinbefore described, in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form. Disease or condition that may be ameliorated by enhancement of progesterone signaling include, but are not limited to, female sexual dysfunction, secondary amenorrhea (e.g., exercise amenorrhoea, anovulation, menopause, menopausal symptoms, hypothyroidism), pre-menstrual syndrome, premature labor, infertility, for example infertility due to repeated miscarriage, irregular menstrual cycles, abnormal uterine bleeding, osteoporosis, autoimmmune disease, multiple sclerosis, prostate enlargement, prostate cancer, and hypothyroidism. For example, by enhancing progesterone signaling, the PDE 1 inhibitors may be used to encourage egg implantation through effects on the lining of uterus, and to help maintain pregnancy in women who are prone to miscarriage due to immune response to pregnancy or low progesterone function. The novel PDE 1 inhibitors, e.g., as described herein, may also be useful to enhance the effectiveness of hormone replacement therapy, e.g., administered in combination with estrogen/estradiol/estriol and/or progesterone/progestins in postmenopausal women, and estrogen-induced endometrial hyperplasia and carcinoma. The methods of the invention are also useful for animal breeding, for example to induce sexual receptivity and/or estrus in a nonhuman female mammal to be bred. 
     In this embodiment, PDE 1 Inhibitors may be used in the foregoing methods of treatment or prophylaxis as a sole therapeutic agent, but may also be used in combination or for co-administration with other active agents, for example in conjunction with hormone replacement therapy. Thus, the invention further comprises a method of treating disorders that may be ameliorated by enhancement of progesterone signaling comprising administering simultaneously, sequentially, or contemporaneously administering therapeutically effective amounts of
         (i) a PDE 1 Inhibitor, e.g., a compound according to any of Formula 1.1-1.127 or Formula I, and   (ii) a hormone, e.g., selected from estrogen and estrogen analogues (e.g., estradiol, estriol, estradiol esters) and progesterone and progesterone analogues (e.g., progestins)
 
in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, to a human or animal patient in need thereof. In another embodiment, the invention provides the method described above wherein the PDE 1 inhibitor is a Compound of Formula II, or any of 2.1-2.24, Formula P-A or P-B, or any of 3.1-3.132 as hereinbefore described, in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form.
       

     The invention also provides a method for enhancing or potentiating dopamine D1 intracellular signaling activity in a cell or tissue comprising contacting said cell or tissue with an amount of a Compound of the Invention sufficient to inhibit PDE1B activity. The invention further provides a method for enhancing or potentiating dopamine D1 intracellular signaling activity in a cell or tissue comprising contacting said cell or tissue with an amount of a Compound of Formula II, or any of 2.1-2.24, Formula P-A or P-B, or any of 3.1-3.132 as hereinbefore described, in free or salt form, sufficient to inhibit PDE1 activity, e.g., PDE1A or PDE1B activity. 
     The invention also provides a method for enhancing or potentiating progesterone signaling activity in a cell or tissue comprising contacting said cell or tissue with an amount of a Compound of the Invention sufficient to inhibit PDE I B activity. 
     The invention also provides a method for treating a PDE1-related, especially PDE1B-related disorder, a dopamine D1 receptor intracellular signaling pathway disorder, or disorders that may be alleviated by the enhancement of the progesterone signaling pathway in a patient in need thereof comprising administering to the patient an effective amount of a Compound of the Invention that inhibits PDE1B, wherein PDE1B activity modulates phosphorylation of DARPP-32 and/or the GluR1 AMPA receptor. Similarly, the invention provides a method for treating a PDE1-related, especially PDE1B-related disorder, a dopamine D1 receptor intracellular signaling pathway disorder, or disorders that may be alleviated by the enhancement of the progesterone signaling pathway in a patient in need thereof comprising administering to the patient an effective amount of a Compound of Formula II or any of 2.1-2.24, Formula P-A or P-B, or any of 3.1-3.132 as hereinbefore described, in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form. 
     In another aspect, the invention also provides a method for the treatment for glaucoma or elevated intraocular pressure comprising topical administration of a therapeutically effective amount of a phospodiesterase type I (PDE1) Inhibitor of the Invention, in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, in an opthalmically compatible carrier to the eye of a patient in need thereof. However, treatment may alternatively include a systemic therapy. Systemic therapy includes treatment that can directly reach the bloodstream, or oral methods of administration, for example. 
     The invention further provides a pharmaceutical composition for topical ophthalmic use comprising a PDE1 inhibitor; for example an ophthalmic solution, suspension, cream or ointment comprising a PDE1 Inhibitor of the Invention, in free or ophthamalogically acceptable salt form, in combination or association with an ophthamologically acceptable diluent or carrier. 
     Optionally, the PDE1 inhibitor may be administered sequentially or simultaneously with a second drug useful for treatment of glaucoma or elevated intraocular pressure. Where two active agents are administered, the therapeutically effective amount of each agent may be below the amount needed for activity as monotherapy. Accordingly, a subthreshold amount (i.e., an amount below the level necessary for efficacy as monotherapy) may be considered therapeutically effective and also may also be referred alternatively as an effective amount. Indeed, an advantage of administering different agents with different mechanisms of action and different side effect profiles may be to reduce the dosage and side effects of either or both agents, as well as to enhance or potentiate their activity as monotherapy. 
     The invention thus provides the method of treatment of a condition selected from glaucoma and elevated intraocular pressure comprising administering to a patient in need thereof an effective amount, e.g., a subthreshold amount, of an agent known to lower intraocular pressure concomitantly, simultaneously or sequentially with an effective amount, e.g., a subthreshold amount, of a PDE1 Inhibitor of the Invention, in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, such that amount of the agent known to lower intraocular pressure and the amount of the PDE1 inhibitor in combination are effective to treat the condition. 
     In one embodiment, one or both of the agents are administered topically to the eye. Thus the invention provides a method of reducing the side effects of treatment of glaucoma or elevated intraocular pressure by administering a reduced dose of an agent known to lower intraocular pressure concomitantly, simultaneously or sequentially with an effective amount of a PDE1 inhibitor. However, methods other than topical administration, such as systemic therapeutic administration, may also be utilized. 
     The optional additional agent or agents for use in combination with a PDE1 inhibitor may, for example, be selected from the existing drugs comprise typically of instillation of a prostaglandin, pilocarpine, epinephrine, or topical beta-blocker treatment, e.g. with timolol, as well as systemically administered inhibitors of carbonic anhydrase, e.g. acetazolamide. Cholinesterase inhibitors such as physostigmine and echothiopate may also be employed and have an effect similar to that of pilocarpine. Drugs currently used to treat glaucoma thus include, e.g.,
         1. Prostaglandin analogs such as latanoprost (Xalatan), bimatoprost (Lumigan) and travoprost (Travatan), which increase uveoscleral outflow of aqueous humor. Bimatoprost also increases trabecular outflow.   2. Topical beta-adrenergic receptor antagonists such as timolol, levobunolol (Betagan), and betaxolol, which decrease aqueous humor production by the ciliary body.   3. Alpha 2 -adrenergic agonists such as brimonidine (Alphagan), which work by a dual mechanism, decreasing aqueous production and increasing uveo-scleral outflow.   4. Less-selective sympathomimetics like epinephrine and dipivefrin (Propine) increase outflow of aqueous humor through trabecular meshwork and possibly through uveoscleral outflow pathway, probably by a beta 2 -agonist action.   5. Miotic agents (parasympathomimetics) like pilocarpine work by contraction of the ciliary muscle, tightening the trabecular meshwork and allowing increased outflow of the aqueous humour.   6. Carbonic anhydrase inhibitors like dorzolamide (Trusopt), brinzolamide (Azopt), acetazolamide (Diamox) lower secretion of aqueous humor by inhibiting carbonic anhydrase in the ciliary body.   7. Physostigmine is also used to treat glaucoma and delayed gastric emptying.       

     For example, the invention provides pharmaceutical compositions comprising a PDE1 Inhibitor of the Invention and an agent selected from (i) the prostanoids, unoprostone, latanoprost, travoprost, or bimatoprost; (ii) an alpha adrenergic agonist such as brimonidine, apraclonidine, or dipivefrin and (iii) a muscarinic agonist, such as pilocarpine. For example, the invention provides ophthalmic formulations comprising a PDE-1 Inhibitor of the Invention together with bimatoprost, abrimonidine, brimonidine, timolol, or combinations thereof, in free or ophthamalogically acceptable salt form, in combination or association with an ophthamologically acceptable diluent or carrier. In addition to selecting a combination, however, a person of ordinary skill in the art can select an appropriate selective receptor subtype agonist or antagonist. For example, for alpha adrenergic agonist, one can select an agonist selective for an alpha 1 adrenergic receptor, or an agonist selective for an alpha 2  adrenergic receptor such as brimonidine, for example. For a beta-adrenergic receptor antagonist, one can select an antagonist selective for either β 1 , or β 2 , or β 3 , depending on the appropriate therapeutic application. One can also select a muscarinic agonist selective for a particular receptor subtype such as M 1 -M 5 . 
     The PDE 1 inhibitor may be administered in the form of an ophthalmic composition, which includes an ophthalmic solution, cream or ointment. The ophthalmic composition may additionally include an intraocular-pressure lowering agent. 
     In yet another example, the PDE-1 Inhibitors disclosed may be combined with a subthreshold amount of an intraocular pressure-lowering agent which may be a bimatoprost ophthalmic solution, a brimonidine tartrate ophthalmic solution, or brimonidine tartrate/timolol maleate ophthalmic solution. 
     In addition to the above-mentioned methods, it has also been surprisingly discovered that PDE1 inhibitors are useful to treat psychosis, for example, any conditions characterized by psychotic symptoms such as hallucinations, paranoid or bizarre delusions, or disorganized speech and thinking, e.g., schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, schizophreniform disorder, psychotic disorder, delusional disorder, and mania, such as in acute manic episodes and bipolar disorder. Without intending to be bound by any theory, it is believed that typical and atypical antipsychotic drugs such as clozapine primarily have their antagonistic activity at the dopamine D2 receptor. PDE1 inhibitors, however, primarily act to enhance signaling at the dopamine D1 receptor. By enhancing D1 receptor signaling, PDE1 inhibitors can increase NMDA receptor function in various brain regions, for example in nucleus accumbens neurons and in the prefrontal cortex. This enhancement of function may be seen for example in NMDA receptors containing the NR2B subunit, and may occur e.g., via activation of the Src and protein kinase A family of kinases. 
     Therefore, the invention provides a new method for the treatment of psychosis, e.g., schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, schizophreniform disorder, psychotic disorder, delusional disorder, and mania, such as in acute manic episodes and bipolar disorder, comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a phosphodiesterase-1 (PDE1) Inhibitor of the Invention, in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, to a patient in need thereof. 
     PDE 1 Inhibitors may be used in the foregoing methods of treatment prophylaxis as a sole therapeutic agent, but may also be used in combination or for co-administration with other active agents. Thus, the invention further comprises a method of treating psychosis, e.g., schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, schizophreniform disorder, psychotic disorder, delusional disorder, or mania, comprising administering simultaneously, sequentially, or contemporaneously administering therapeutically effective amounts of:
         (i) a PDE 1 Inhibitor of the invention, in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form; and   (ii) an antipsychotic, e.g.,
           Typical antipsychotics, e.g.,
               Butyrophenones, e.g. Haloperidol (Haldol, Serenace), Droperidol (Droleptan);   Phenothiazines, e.g., Chlorpromazine (Thorazine, Largactil), Fluphenazine (Prolixin), Perphenazine (Trilafon), Prochlorperazine (Compazine), Thioridazine (Mellaril, Melleril), Trifluoperazine (Stelazine), Mesoridazine, Periciazine, Promazine, Triflupromazine (Vesprin), Levomepromazine (Nozinan), Promethazine (Phenergan), Pimozide (Orap);   Thioxanthenes, e.g., Chlorprothixene, Flupenthixol (Depixol, Fluanxol), Thiothixene (Navane), Zuclopenthixol (Clopixol, Acuphase);   
               Atypical antipsychotics, e.g.,
               Clozapine (Clozaril), Olanzapine (Zyprexa), Risperidone (Risperdal), Quetiapine (Seroquel), Ziprasidone (Geodon), Amisulpride (Solian), Paliperidone (Invega), Aripiprazole (Abilify), Bifeprunox; norclozapine,   
               
               

     in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, to a patient in need thereof. 
     In a particular embodiment, the Compounds of the Invention are particularly useful for the treatment or prophylaxis of schizophrenia. 
     Compounds of the Invention, in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, are particularly useful for the treatment of Parkinson&#39;s disease, schizophrenia, narcolepsy, glaucoma and female sexual dysfunction. 
     In still another aspect, the invention provides a method of lengthening or enhancing growth of the eyelashes by administering an effective amount of a prostaglandin analogue, e.g., bimatoprost, concomitantly, simultaneously or sequentially with an effective amount of a PDE1 inhibitor of the Invention, in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, to the eye of a patient in need thereof. 
     In yet another aspect, the invention provides a method for the treatment or prophylaxis of traumatic brain injury comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a PDE1 inhibitor of the invention, in free or pharmaceutically acceptable salt form, to a patient in need thereof. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) encompasses primary injury as well as secondary injury, including both focal and diffuse brain injuries. Secondary injuries are multiple, parallel, interacting and interdependent cascades of biological reactions arising from discrete subcellular processes (e.g., toxicity due to reactive oxygen species, overstimulation of glutamate receptors, excessive influx of calcium and inflammatory upregulation) which are caused or exacerbated by the inflammatory response and progress after the initial (primary) injury. Abnormal calcium homeostasis is believed to be a critical component of the progression of secondary injury in both grey and white matter. For a review of TBI, see Park et al., CMAJ (2008) 178(9):1163-1170, the contents of which are incorporated herein in their entirety. Studies have shown that the cAMP-PKA signaling cascade is down-regulated after TBI and treatment of PDE IV inhibitors such as rolipram to raise or restore cAMP level improves histopathological outcome and decreases inflammation after TBI. As Compounds of the present invention is a PDE1 inhibitor useful for modulating cAMP and/or calcium levels, it is believed that these compounds are also useful for the treatment of TBI, e.g., by restoring cAMP level and/or calcium homeostasis after traumatic brain injury. 
     The present invention also provides

     Measurement of PDE1B Inhibition In Vitro Using IMAP Phosphodiesterase Assay Kit 
     Phosphodiesterase 1B (PDE1B) is a calcium/calmodulin dependent phosphodiesterase enzyme that converts cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) to 5′-guanosine monophosphate (5′-GMP). PDE1B can also convert a modified cGMP substrate, such as the fluorescent molecule cGMP-fluorescein, to the corresponding GMP-fluorescein. The generation of GMP-fluorescein from cGMP-fluorescein can be quantitated, using, for example, the IMAP (Molecular Devices, Sunnyvale, Calif.) immobilized-metal affinity particle reagent. 
     Briefly, the IMAP reagent binds with high affinity to the free 5′-phosphate that is found in GMP-fluorescein and not in cGMP-fluorescein. The resulting GMP-fluorescein—IMAP complex is large relative to cGMP-fluorescein. Small fluorophores that are bound up in a large, slowly tumbling, complex can be distinguished from unbound fluorophores, because the photons emitted as they fluoresce retain the same polarity as the photons used to excite the fluorescence. 
     In the phosphodiesterase assay, cGMP-fluorescein, which cannot be bound to IMAP, and therefore retains little fluorescence polarization, is converted to GMP-fluorescein, which, when bound to IMAP, yields a large increase in fluorescence polarization (Δmp). Inhibition of phosphodiesterase, therefore, is detected as a decrease in Δmp. 
     Enzyme Assay 
     Materials: All chemicals are available from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, Mo.) except for IMAP reagents (reaction buffer, binding buffer, FL-GMP and IMAP beads), which are available from Molecular Devices (Sunnyvale, Calif.). 
     Assay: 3′,5′-cyclic-nucleotide-specific bovine brain phosphodiesterase (Sigma, St. Louis, Mo.) is reconstituted with 50% glycerol to 2.5 U/ml. One unit of enzyme will hydrolyze 1.0 μmole of 3′,5′-cAMP to 5′-AMP per min at pH 7.5 at 30° C. One part enzyme is added to 1999 parts reaction buffer (30 μM CaCl 2 , 10 U/ml of calmodulin (Sigma P2277), 10 mM Tris-HCl pH 7.2, 10 mM MgCl 2 , 0.1% BSA, 0.05% NaN 3 ) to yield a final concentration of 1.25 mU/ml. 99 μl of diluted enzyme solution is added into each well in a flat bottom 96-well polystyrene plate to which 1 μl of test compound dissolved in 100% DMSO is added. Selected Compounds of the Invention are mixed and pre-incubated with the enzyme for 10 min at room temperature. 
     The FL-GMP conversion reaction is initiated by combining 4 parts enzyme and inhibitor mix with 1 part substrate solution (0.225 μM) in a 384-well microtiter plate. The reaction is incubated in dark at room temperature for 15 min. The reaction is halted by addition of 60 μl of binding reagent (1:400 dilution of IMAP beads in binding buffer supplemented with 1:1800 dilution of antifoam) to each well of the 384-well plate. The plate is incubated at room temperature for 1 hour to allow IMAP binding to proceed to completion, and then placed in an Envision multimode microplate reader (PerkinElmer, Shelton, Conn.) to measure the fluorescence polarization (Δmp). 
     A decrease in GMP concentration, measured as decreased Δmp, is indicative of inhibition of PDE activity. IC 50  values are determined by measuring enzyme activity in the presence of 8 to 16 concentrations of compound ranging from 0.0037 nM to 80,000 nM and then plotting drug concentration versus ΔmP, which allows IC 50  values to be estimated using nonlinear regression software (XLFit; IDBS, Cambridge, Mass.). 
     The Compounds of the Invention are selected and tested in this assay to show PDE1 inhibitory activity. Exemplified compounds of the invention generally have IC 50  values of 25 μM, some less than 1 μM, some less than 500 nM, some less than 200 nM, some with PDE1A activities, e.g., Examples 1-3, 5 and 6 are shown to have an IC 50  of less than 200 nM.

     PDE1 Inhibitor Effect on Sexual Response in Female Rats 
     The effect of PDE1 inhibitors on Lordosis Response in female rats is measured as described in Mani, et al., Science (2000) 287: 1053. Ovariectomized and cannulated wild-type rats are primed with 2 μg estrogen followed 24 hours later by intracerebroventricular (icv) injection of progesterone (2 μg), PDE1 inhibitors of the present invention (0.1 mg, 1.0 mg or 2.5 mg) or sesame oil vehicle (control). The rats are tested for lordosis response in the presence of male rats. Lordosis response is quantified by the lordosis quotient (LQ=number of lordosis/10 mounts×100). The LQ for estrogen-primed female rats receiving Compounds of the Invention, at 0.1 mg, will likely be similar to estrogen-primed rats receiving progesterone and higher than for estrogen-primed rats receiving vehicle.
