FIELD OF INVENTION The present invention provides compounds of Formula (I), compositions thereof, and a method of antagonizing the NK-1 subtype of tachykinin feceptor that comprises administering to a patient in need thereof an effective amount of a compound of Formula (I). In addition, the present invention relates to processes for preparing the compounds of Formula 1 and intermediates thereof. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Techykinins are a femily of neotides that are widely distributed in both the central and peripheral nervous systems. These peptides exert a number of biological effects throuch actions at tachykinin receptors. To date, three such receptors have been characterized, including the NK-1, NK-2, and NK-3 subtypes of tachykinin receptor. The role of the NK-1 receptor subtype in numerous disorders of the central nervous system and the periphery has been thoroughly demonstrated in the art. For instance, NK-3 receptors arc believed to play a role in depression, anxiety, and central regulation of various autonomic, as well as cardiovascular and respiratory functions, NK- 1 receptors in the spinal cord are believed to play a role in pain transmission, especially the pain associated with migraine and arthritis. In the periphery, NK-1 receptor activation has been implicated in numerous disorders, including various inflammatory disorders, asthma, and disorders of the gastrointestinal and genitourinary tract. There are a actrictive which recognion; that selectiv NK) receptor antagonists. would prove useful in the treatmem of many diseases of the central nervous system and the periphery. While many of these disorders are being treated by new medicines, there are still many shortcomings associated with existing treatments. For example, the newest class of anti-depressants, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), are increasingly prescribed for the treatment of depression; however, SSRIs have numerous side effects, including nausea, insomnia, anxiety, and sexual dysfunction. This could significantly affect patient compliance rate. As another example, current treatments for chemotherapy- induced nausea and emesis, such as the 5-HT3 receptor antagonists, are ineffective in managing delayed cmests. The development of NK-1 receptor antagonists will therefore greatly enhance the ability to treat such disorders more effectively. Thus, the present invention provides a class of potent, non-peptidc NK-1 receptor antagonists, compositions comprising these compounds, and methods of using the compounds.

Wiley-VCH: New York, 1999, pp 44-46). Compounds of Formula (I) in which -G1 -G2 -G3 - is -N-CR -S- maybe prepared from a compound of Formula 10, which is described in Scheme 2. Specifically, a compound of Fonnula (10) may be treated with an enolate prepared from a ketone such as 1-(2-chloro-phenyl)ethanone and a base such as lithium diisopropylamide in a suitable solvent such as tetrahydrofuran to provide a compound of Formula (40). A compound of Formula (40) may be treated with a halogenating agent ' such bromine in a suitable solvent such as a mixture of methylene chloride and water to provide a compound of Formula (41). A compound of Fonnula (I) may be prepared by treating a compound of Formula (41) with a suitable condensing agent such as thioamide or thiourea in the presence of a dehydrating agent such as molecular sieves. Convenient solvents include ethanol, acetone, MeOH, CH2Cl2, THF, or ether. A compound of Formula (I) in which R8 is -NH2 may be deaminated, as described above (See Scheme 7). Furthermore, the -X- linker of Formula (I) may undergo reduction as previously described. Compounds of Formula (I) in which -G4-G5-G6- is -N-N-N- may be prepared by treating compounds of Formula (43) with phosphorus pentachloride in a suitable solvent such as methylene chloride. After complete removal of the solvent, the resulting residue is treated with an azide agent such as sodium azide in a suitable solvent.such as dimethylformamide. Transformations of the type depicted in Scheme 12 are well known in the art. For example, see Butler, R. N. Advances in Heterocyclic Chemistry; Katritzky, A. R.; Boulton A. J., Eds.; Academic: New York, 1977; Vol 21, p.378, Thomas, E.; Synthesis, 1993, 767 and references therein. Compounds of Formula (I) in which -G4-G5-G6 is -N-N-CR8- may also be prepared from a compound of Formula (43). More specifically, compounds of Formula (43) are treated with phosphorous pentachloride followed by the appropriate hydrazide in a suitable solvent such as dichloroethane- or tolnene Red W . Peters. B.: Liebrigs' Am: Chem., 1969, p. 124. Phosphorous oxychlonde may be used in place of phosphorous pentachloride (see Amer, A. et al. J. Heterocyclic Chem., 1994, p. 549). Alternatively, compounds of Formula (I) in which -G4-G5-G6- is -N-N-CR8- may be prepared from compounds of Formula (45), which in turn may be prepared from compounds of Formula (43). More specifically, compounds of Formula (43) maybe treated with a thiolating agent such as Lawesson's reagent [2,4-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3- dithia-2,4-diphosphetane-2.4-disulfide] in a suitable solvent such as toluene to provide compounds of Formula (45). Tanaka, H., Nakao, T.; J, Heterocyclic Client., 1997, 34, p. 921. The skilled artisan will recognize that Lawesson's reagent can be replaced with other thiolating agents such as phosphorous pentasulfide (Schwartz, G.; Org. Synth., 1955, III, p. 322). Compounds of Formula (45) may be treated with hydrazine and an acylating agent such as an acyl halide, anhydride, or an orthoester in a suitable solvent such as pyridine. Subsequent treatment with an acid such as para-toluene sulfonic acid provides compounds of Formula (I). Nagaoka, H., Mase, T.; Heterocycles, 1990, 31 p. 1241 and Santus, M.; Liebigs Ann. Chem., 1988, p.179. Scheme 13 depicts further transformations of the R substituent on 1,2,4-triazoles in which R is a substituted alkyl. The skilled artisan will recognize that similar transformations can be carried out for any R substituent on radicals of Formula (IA), (IB),or (IC). Compounds of Formula (47), which are encompassed in Formula (I), can be prepared by the deprotection of the protected primary alcohol of Formula (46). A protecting group such as TIPS can be utilized. Such alcohol protections and deprotections are readily accomplished by methods well known in the art. (Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis, Theodora Greene (Wiley-Interscience)). Compounds of Formula (48), which are encompassed in Formula (I), can be prepared by the oxidation of the appropriate alcohol compounds of Formula (47). Oxidation conditions may include the use of sulfur trioxide pyridine complex with the addition of a base such as triethylamine. The reaction is carried out in an appropriate solvent such as dimethylsulfoxide. Other oxidizing conditions can be found in a leading reference such as Larock, R.C., Comprehensive Organic Transformations, 2nd ed., Wiley- VCH: New York, 1999, pp 1234-1246. Compounds of Formula (50), which are encompassed in Formula (I), can also be prepared by the reductive amination of aldehydes of Formula (48) with an appropriate amine. Suitable reducing agents may include are triacetylsodium borohydride, sodium cyanobohydride and sodium borohydride. Appropriate solvents may include methanol, 1,2-dichloroethane or ethanol. Reductive amination reactions are well appreciated in the art. A leading reference is Larock , R.C., Comprehensive Organic Transformations, 2nd ed., Wiley-VCH: New York, 1999, pp 835-846. The product of the reaction can be isolated and purified using techniques well know in the art. Compounds of Formula (50) can be prepared from a halogen displacement by the amine. The halogen displacement can be accomplished by reacting the chloromethylene derivative and an appropriate amine. The product of the reaction can be isolated and purified using techniques well know in the art. These techniques include extraction, evaporation, chromatography, and recrystallization. In Route 2, compounds of Formula (52), which are encompassed in Formula (I), can be synthesized by the reduction of the appropriate ester to the alcohol. The ester is dissolved in tetrahydrofuran or another appropriate solvent such as ethanol or methanol and a reducing agent such as lithium borohydride, sodium borohydride, or lithium aluminum hydride is added. The product of the reaction can be isolated and purified using techniques well know in the art. Other reducing conditions can be found in a leading reference such as Larock, R.C., Comprehensive Organic Transformations, 2nd ed., Wiley- VCH: New York, 1999. One skilled in the art would also appreciate the formation of the compounds of Formula (I) in which -Gl-G2-G3- is -N-CR8-NH-. A representative example of this formation is shown in Scheme 13. Step pp depicts the condensation of the aldehydes of Fonnula (5) with a methylene-(toluene-4-sulfonyhnethyl)-amine intermediate of Formula (53) in the presence of sodium cyanide in a suitable solvent such as N,N- dimethylformamide or ethanol The conespending 4-uohieni-4-sulfonnyl -4-dihydro oxazole intermediate, Formula (54), can be transformed to the imidazole compounds of Formula (I), by heating with a mixture of an ammonia alcohol solution in a high boiling solvent such as xylenes, chlorobenzene or toluene. The transformation to the imidazole is well known and appreciated in the art. See Buchi, G. Heterocycles, 1994, pg. 139; Van Leusen, A. M. Tetrahedron Lett. 1972, pg. 2369. The appropriate methylene-(toluene-4- sulfonylmethyl)-amine intermediate of Fonnula (53) can be synthesized by an alkylation reaction of the tosylmethyl isocyanide with the appropriate alkyl halide and base, such as potassium hydride or sodium hydride. Compounds of Formula (56), which are encompassed in Formula (I), in which R8 is hydroxy methyl or hydroxy ethyl, can be prepared by deprotection of the protected alcohol, have been described previously. Such deprotections are readily accomplished by methods well known in the art. (Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis, Theodora Greene (Wiley-Interscience)). The skilled artisan will recognize that the resulting hydroxy] group of R8 can be oxidized to give compounds of Formula (57), which are encompassed in Formula (I), where Rx is a bond or a methylene group, and in which R8 is an oxo-substituted alkyl. The alcohol can be oxidized by many different oxidizing reagents such as under Dess- Martin periodinane oxidizing conditions or using combination of DMSO and triethylamine with oxalyl chloride. Such oxidations are readily accomplished by methods well known in the art. (Larock , R.C., Comprehensive Organic Transformations, 2nd ed., Wiley-VCH: New York, 1999, pp 1234-1246). The product of the reaction can be isolated and purified using techniques well know in the art. Compounds of Formula (57) in which R8 is an oxo-subsnmted alkyl group can also be made by deprotection of the appropriate acetal. Such deprotections are readily accomplished by methods well known in the art. (Protecting Groups in Organic Synthesis, Theodora Greene (Wiley-Interscience)). For example, a compound in which R8 is dimethoxy-acetal is reacted under aqueous acidic conditions to give a compound of Formula (57) in which R8 is an aldehyde or an acetaldehyde. Compounds of Formula (I) can be synthesized by reacting the appropriate aldehyde-containing compound of Formula (57) with ammonium acetate or hydrazine under acidic conditions such acetic acid. When Rx is a methylene group, ammonium acetate is the reactant, to provide compounds of Formula (I) in which Q5 is -CR8- and Q6 is nitrogen are achieved or with hydrazine as the reactant, when Rx is a bond, compounds, of Formula (I) in which Q5 and Q6 are nitrogen are achieved. Route 1 of Scheme 16 depicts the formation of compounds of Formula (63), which are encompassed in Formula (I), by the reaction of a diamine of the Formula (60) and ' esters of the Formula (3). It is understood that this reaction can occur when Rx is either a bond or methylene, to give compounds of Formula (I) in which R4 is a radical of Formula (IG) or (M), respectively. The reaction can be carried out in the presence of an appropriate solvent such as toluene or benzene. A solution of the diamine in toluene is treated with trimethylaluminum and then the appropriate ester is added as a solution in the appropriate solvent such as toluene or benzene. The reaction is heated until the reaction is complete. The product of the reaction can be isolated and purified using techniques well know in the art. These techniques include extraction, evaporation, chromatography, and recrystallization. The compounds of Formula (60) can be prepared by reductive animation reactions, generally by combining a N-protected-amino-aldehyde with an appropnok annnu of alternate and skilds the caries a mono-protect: diamine with an appropriate aldehyde, and a suitable reducing agent such as triacetoxysodium borohydride, sodium cyanobohydride or sodium borohydride. Appropriate solvents may include methanol, 1,2-dichloroethane or ethanol. A leading reference that can be consulted for reaction conditions is Larock , R.C., Comprehensive Organic Transformations, 2nd ed., Wiley-VCH: New York, 1999, pp S35-846. This may be followed by deprotection of the protecting groups. Alternatively, Route 2 shows compounds of Formula (63), which are encompassec in Formula (I), can be prepared by the alkylation of compounds of Formula (62). Allcylations of this type are well known in the literature. An appropriate solvent for such reactions is dirnethylforrnamide. A suitable non-nucleophilic base may include potassium carbonate. Sodium iodide is added in a catalytic amount. Compounds of Formula (62) are conveniently prepared by the reaction of the, esters of Formula (3) and commercially available diamines in the presence of trimethylaluminum. Products can be purified by techniques previously described. Route 3 depicts the formation of compounds of Formula (63) by the read ion of an appropriate amino-anucie of formula (64) m the presence of phosphorus pemachlond in a suitable solvent such as chloroform at reflux, step xx. Compounds of Formula (63) can be purified by techniques described previously. One skilled in the art would recognize compounds of Formula (64) can be prepared by transformation of compounds of Formula (43) of Scheme 12. It will be appreciated by the skilled artisan that imidazolines of Formula (63) (in which Rx is a bond) maybe further aromatized to give compounds of Formula (63) in which R4 is a radical of Formula (IC) and -G4-G5-G6- is -N-CR8-CR8-, which are encompassed in Formula (I). The dehydrogenation conditions include dissolving the imidazoline in a solvent such as xylenes and adding a palladium catalyst such a 10% palladium on carbon. The dehydrogenation reaction is allowed to heat until the reaction is complete. A reference for the dehydrogenation conditions is Amemiya, Y.; Miller, D.D.; Hsu, F.L.; Synth. Comm. 1990, Vol 20 (16) 2483-2489. The pioduct of the reaction can be isolated and purified using techniques well know in the art.

NK-1 Receptor Binding Assay The IM cell line is a well-characterized and readilv available human cell line See, e.g.. Annak oi the New York Acadeny of Science. 190. 224, -234 (1972); Nanire (London), 251:443-444 (1974); Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (USA), 71:84-88 (1974). These cells are routinely cultured in RPMI 1640 supplemented with 50 Hg/ml gentamicin sulfate and 10% fetal calf serum. The IM-9 cells are homogenized from cell pellets for crude membranes. The membranes are isolated by homogenizing tissue samples in 30 ml w/v with 50 mM Tris buffer (pH 7.4). After an initial spin at 900 x g, the supernatant is transferred to a clean centrifuge tube and the membranes isolated by centrifugation at 3S,000 x g. Approximately 25 µg of membranes are incubated with 0.2nM [125I]-substance P (NEN, Boston, MA) in a receptor binding assay. The assay buffer contains 50 mM Tris,'3 mM MnCl2, 0.02% bovine serum albumin, 40 ug/ml bacitracin, 2 ug/ml chymostatin, 4 ug/ml leupeptin and 40 µg/ml thiorphan (pH 7.4). Binding studies are conducted in a final volume of 200 µl containing various concentrations of test compounds. Non- specific binding is determined by incubating some rubes in the presence of 1 uM substance P (Peninsula, Belmont, CA). Binding is terminated 1 hour later by rapid filtration using a TOMTEC 96-well cell harvester (TOMTEC, Orange, CT) through GF/A filters that have been presoaked with 0.3% polyethyleneimine (Sigma, St Louis) for 1 hour. The filters are washed with 5 ml of ice-cold 50 mM Tris buffer (pH 7.4) and placed in a drying oven at 60°C. The dried filters are treated with MeltiLex A melt-on scintillator sheets (Wallac, Gaithersburg, MD), and the radioactivity retained on the filters counted using the Wallac 1205 Betaplate scintillation counter. The results are analyzed using a Log-Logit plot from a Microsoft Excel workbook and converted to Ki values with the Cheng-Prusoff equation. Protein concentrations are measured using Coomassie® protein assay reagent (Pierce, Rockford, IL), with BSA for standards (Bradford, 1976). Binding studies are carried out to evaluate the ability of compounds of the present invention to inhibit NK-1 receptor activation. Such studies provide in vitro data regarding the efficacy of the compounds of the present invention. Compounds described herein as EXAMPLES have been demonstrated to have binding affinities (Kj values) of The results of NK-1 receptor binding studies demonstrate the ability of compounds of the present invention to act as antagonists of NK-1 receptors.

The present invention contemplates the various disorders described to be treated herein and others that can be treated by such antagonists, as appreciated by those skilled in the art. The disorders associated with an excess of tachykinins are treated by administering an effective amount of a compound or phannaceutical composition o Formula I. An effective amount can be readily determined by the attending diagnostician, as one skilled in the art, by the use of conventional techniques and by observing results obtained under analogous circumstances. In determining an effective amount, the dose-of a compound of Formula I, a number of factors are considered by the attending diagnostician, including, but not limited to: the compound of Formula I to be administered; the species of mammal - its size, age, and general health; the specific disorder involved; the degree of involvement or the severity of the disorder; the response of the individual patient; the mode of administration; the bioavailability characteristics of the preparation administered; the dose regimen selected; the use of other concomitant medication; and other relevant circumstances. An effective amount of a compound of Formula I is expected to vary from about 0.001 milligram per kilogram of body weight per day (mg/kg/day) to about 100 mg/kg/day. Preferred amounts may be readily determined by one skilled in the art. Of the disorders associated with an excess of tachykinins that are treated according to the present invention, the treatment of depression and anxiety are particularly preferred. Thus, in a preferred embodiment, the present invention provides a method for treating a depressive disorder, including major depressive disorder, comprising: administering to a patient in need thereof an effective amount of a compound of Formula I or a pharmaceutical composition thereof.
