AMINO-ISO-INDOLE, AMINO-AZA-ISO-INDOLE, AMINO-DIHYDROISOQUINOLINE AND AMINO-BENZOXAZINE COMPOUNDS AS BETA-SECRETASE MODULATORS AND METHODS OF USE

摘要

The present invention comprises a new class of compounds useful for the modulation of Beta-secretase enzyme activity and for the treatment of Beta-secretase mediated diseases, including Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related conditions. In one embodiment, the compounds have a general Formula I: (I). In another embodiment, the compounds have a general Formula II: (II). In another embodiment, the compounds have a general Formula III: (III). Variables A¹, A², A³, A⁴, A⁵, A⁶, R², R⁷, V, W, X, Y and Z of Formulas I, II and III are defined herein. The invention also includes use of these compounds in pharmaceutical compositions for treatment, prophylactic or therapeutic, of disorders and conditions related to the activity of beta-secretase protein. Such disorders include, for example, Alzheimer's Disease, cognitive deficits, cognitive impairment, schizophrenia and other central nervous system conditions related to and/or caused by the formation and/or deposition of plaque on the brain. The invention also comprises further embodiments of Formulas I, II and III, intermediates and processes useful for the preparation of compounds of Formulas I, II and III.
