-
The present invention relates to benzimidazole derivatives having the general formula I, wherein n is 0 or 1; X1 and X2 are independently, at each occurrence, CR5 or N; Y is C1-C6 alkylene, wherein alkylene is optionally substituted with one to two C1-C3 alkyl groups; R1 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halogen, C1-C6 alkoxy, -NH2, -NHR6, -NR7R8 and -NH-(R9)n-R10, n being 0 or 1; R2 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halogen, C1-C6 alkyl, -NH2, -NHR6, - NR7R8 and -NH-(R9)n-R10; R3 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, hydroxyl, OR11, -NR7R8, C1-C6 alkoxy, C1-C6 alkyl, C3-C10 cycloalkyl, C1-C3 haloalkyl, -C(O)NHR11, aryl, heteroaryl and heterocyclyl, wherein each of said cycloalkyl, aryl, heteroaryl and heterocyclyl is optionally and independently substituted with one to four Ra groups; and R4 is selected from the group consisting of -NH2, -N(R12)(V)pR13, - NH(V)p-OR14, -NHC(O)R15, and groups of formula la shown below, and their use in the treatment of diseases, in particular inflammatory diseases, cancer, stroke and/or Alzheimer's disease.

- Palladium-catalysed direct diarylations of pyrazoles with aryl bromides: A one step access to 4,5-diarylpyrazoles
-
The palladium-catalysed direct arylation of pyrazoles with aryl halides, using PdCl(C3H5)(dppb)/KOAc catalyst, reveals a similar reactivity of C4 and C5 CH bonds of pyrazoles, whereas the C3 CH bond is almost unreactive, and gives ac

- Pd-catalysed direct 5-arylation of 1-methylpyrazole with aryl bromides
-
1-Methylpyrazole was found to be a suitable partner for palladium-catalysed direct arylation through C-H activation/functionalisation using aryl bromides. The reaction conditions and the nature of the catalyst were found to have a determining influence on

- Inhibitors of acyl-coA:cholesterol O-acyltransferase. 2. Identification and structure-activity relationships of a novel series of N-alkyl-N- (heteroaryl-substituted benzyl)-N'-arylureas
-
A series of N-alkyl-N-(heteroaryl-substituted benzyl)-N'-arylurea and related derivatives represented by 2 and 3 have been prepared and evaluated for their ability to inhibit acyl-CoA:cholesterol O-acyltransferase in vitro and to lower plasma cholesterol levels in cholesterol-fed rats in vivo. Among these novel compounds, the type 3 series was superior. A pyrazol-3-yl group on the N-benzyl group of this trisubstituted urea (i.e. 3, Ar1 = pyrazol-3- yl) was identified as a heteroaromatic ring providing a good profile of biological activity. As a result of optimization of the combination with the N-alkyl group (R) and N-aryl group (At3), compound 3aq (FR186054) was identified as a new, orally efficacious ACAT inhibitor, which exhibited potent in vitro ACAT inhibitory activity (rabbit intestinal microsomes IC50 = 99 nM) and excellent hypocholesterolemic effects in cholesterol-fed rats, irrespective of administration mode (ED50 = 0.046 mg/kg dosed via the diet, ED50 = 0.44 mg/kg administered by gavage in PEG400 vehicle). Moreover, a toxicological study revealed compound 3aq to be nontoxic to the adrenal glands of dogs when tested at a single dose of 10 mg/kg po.
