The present invention relates to novel dopamine D2 receptor ligands. The invention further relates to functionally-biased dopamine D2 receptor ligands and the use of these compounds for treating or preventing central nervous system and systemic disorders associated with dysregulation of dopaminergic activity. The present invention relates to novel compounds that modulate dopamine D2 receptors. In particular, compounds of the present invention show functional selectivity at the dopamine D2 receptors and exhibit selectivity downstream of the D2 receptors, on the 0-arrestin pathway and/or on the cAMP pathway.

Small molecule compounds derived from -sulfophenylacetic amide (SPAA) are provided as novel sulfonic acid based pTyr mimetics. These compounds effectively inhibit a variety of protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs), such as mPTPA, mPTPB, LMWPTP, and Laforin. Use of these compounds as pharmaceutical agents for treating diseases associated with abnormal protein tyrosine phosphatase activity is also provided.

The present disclosure provides compounds, compositions, and methods for preparing alkenyl halides and/or haloalkyl-substituted olefins with Z-selectivity. The methods are particularly useful for preparing alkenyl fluorides such as CF.sub.3-substituted olefins by means of cross-metathesis reactions using halogen-containing molybdenum and tungsten complexes.
