The present invention relates to novel N-arylamide-substituted trifluoroethyl sulfide derivatives of the formula (I) ##STR00001## in which X.sup.1, X.sup.2, X.sup.3, X.sup.4, R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, n have the meanings given in the descriptionto their use as acaricides and insecticides for controlling animal pests and to processes and intermediates for their preparation.

The present invention relates to: a cyclohexene derivative; a preparation method therefor; and a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating metabolic diseases, containing the same as an active ingredient. The cyclohexene derivative according to the present invention increases the intracellular activity of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) by activating G protein-coupled receptor 119 (GPR-119) and simultaneously exhibits weight loss and hypoglycemic effects by inducing the release of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1), which is a neuroendocrine protein, and thus can be useful as a pharmaceutical composition for preventing or treating metabolic diseases such as obesity, type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, inadequate glucose tolerance, insulin resistance, hyperglycemia, hyperlipidemia, hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia, dyslipidemia and syndrome X.

The present invention relates to a novel process for preparing the compound 4-(cyclopropylmethoxy)-N-(3,5-di-chloro-1-oxido-4-pyridyl)-5-methoxypyridine-2-carboxamide of formula (1), in base or hydrate form or in the form of pharmaceutically acceptable salts, and also to several novel synthetic intermediates that are useful in this preparation process. ##STR00001##

The present invention is directed to novel inhibitors of the BACE1 enzyme. Separate aspects of the invention are directed to pharmaceutical compositions comprising said compounds and uses of the compounds to treat disorders for which the reduction of A deposits is beneficial such as Alzheimer's disease.
