A novel series of N-alkyl-substituted cyclic sulfamides were developed from a screening hit. Chemistries were developed which allowed surveys of N-alkyl groups and amines resulting in the identification of N-trifluoroethyl- substituted cyclic sulfamides with good in vitro and in vivo γ-secretase activity. One compound with subnanomolar activity elicited a reduction in brain Aβ40 after oral dosing in APP-YAC mice.

5,6,7,8,9,10-Hexahydro-6,9-methanobenzocyclooctene is a ring system where the cyclooctene ring could exist either in a boat or in chair conformation.Molecular modeling calculations indicated that the boat conformation is the favored conformation when position 11 is substituted by a ketone group, an amino group, or a hydroxy group.NMR shift reagent studies have shown that these same derivatives exist in this boat conformation.The same studies have also demonstrated that chemical modifications of carbon-11 transforming it from a sp2 to sp3 (i.e., reduction of carbonyl to alcohol) give rise to endo derivatives exclusively.Attempts to obtain the exo derivatives by displacement reactions of sulfonates or Ritter reactions were unsuccessful.The only exo derivative obtainable was the 11-exo-amino-5,6,7,8,9,10-hexahydro-6,9-methanobenzocyclooctene, isolated in low yields from the base-catalyzed equilibration of its N-benzylidene derivative.
