The present disclosure relates to bifunctional compounds, which find utility as modulators of α-synuclein (target protein). In particular, the present disclosure is directed to bifunctional compounds, which contain on one end a Von Hippel-Lindau, cereblon. Inhibitors of Apotosis Proteins or mouse double-minute homolog 2 ligand which binds to the respective E3 ubiquitin ligase and on the other end a moiety which binds the target protein, such that the target protein is placed in proximity to the ubiquitin ligase to effect degradation (and inhibition) of target protein. The present disclosure exhibits a broad range of pharmacological activities associated with degradation/inhibition of target protein. Diseases or disorders that result from aggregation or accumulation of the target protein are treated or prevented with compounds and compositions of the present disclosure.

The present disclosure relates to novel processes for the preparation of compounds of Formula I. Some of these compounds are useful as stimulators of soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC). Others are useful intermediates towards the preparation of said stimulators. These processes are amenable to large scale preparation and produce stable 3-(2-pyrimidinyl)pyrazoles of Formula I in high purity and yields. The present invention has the additional advantage of facile reaction conditions, amenable to scale up for large scale manufacturing. The disclosure also provides novel intermediates useful in the preparation of said compounds. ##STR00001##
