Tautomerization is a form of isomerization and includes prototropic or proton-shift tautomerization, which is considered a subset of acid-base chemistry. Prototropic tautomerization or proton-shift tautomerization involves the migration of a proton accompanied by changes in bond order, often the interchange of a single bond with an adjacent double bond.

    [0035] The term organic basic moiety refers to the combination of terms organic base and moiety. The term moiety refers to a part of a molecule, which is covalently connected to the rest of the molecule. An organic base is an organic compound which can act as a base. Organic bases usually contain nitrogen atoms, which can be protonated, for example amines have a lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen atom and can thus act as proton acceptors (bases). Amines and nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compounds are organic bases. An example of an organic base is piperidine. An organic basic moiety is thus an organic base, which is part of a molecule, wherein the basic function resides with the moiety. The organic basic moiety is referred to as OrgB herein.

    [0291] To a solution of lithium bis(trimethylsilyl)azanide, 1M (18 ml, 17.88 mmol, 2.3 eq) in THF (40 mL) in a round-bottomed three necked flask was added the solution of 1-(tert-butyl) 4-ethyl piperidine-1,4-dicarboxylate (2 g, 7.77 mmol, 1 eq) in THF (10 mL) at 78 C. under inert atmosphere (argon inlet). After the mixture was stirred for 30 minutes at 78 C., 3-(bromomethyl)-5-fluoro-pyridine hydrobromide (2.316 g, 8.55 mmol, 1.1 eq) was added in portions direct into the system during 30 minutes. The reaction mixture stirred at 78 C. for additional 30 minutes and then allowed to warm up to room temperature and stirred at ambient temperature overnight. After 14 hours the reaction mixture was quenched with saturated aqueous solution of NH.sub.4Cl (100 mL) and extracted with ethyl acetate (330 mL). The organic layers were isolated, combined, washed with water (100 mL) and brine (100 mL), then dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and filtered. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure to afford 3.65 g of crude orange oil. The crude obtained was purified with FC (Companion combiflash; 80 g SiO.sub.2, chloroform/acetonitrile with acetonitrile from 0-35%, flow rate=60 mL/min, Rv=13 CV) to afford the title product (530 mg, 16.75%) as pale yellow oil with 90% purity, which was used without additional purification.

The reaction mixture was then heated up to 75 C. and left while stirring. After 48 hours the reaction mixture was cooled down to ambient temperature and concentrated under reduced pressure to afford a yellow semi-solid residue, which was diluted with distilled water (7 mL) and extracted with DCM (25 mL). The aqueous layer was isolated and sodium hydrogen sulfate (312 mg, 2.604 mmol, 2 eq) was added to the solution while stirring. The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for additional 30 minutes, and then the precipitate formed was collected by filtration and dried at 65 C. to afford the title product (300 mg, 68.11%) as white solid, which was used without further purification.

    Example 2: Determination of Potencies and Efficacies of Dioxazines Using GCase Assay

    Materials

    [0314] Human fibroblast cell line GM10915 harboring the L444P GBA mutation was obtained from Coriell Biorepositories.

    [0315] All chemicals (Glacial acetic acid, Glycine, 4-Methylumbelliferyl b-D-glucopyranoside (4-MUG), Sodium acetate trihydrate, Sodium hydroxide, Crystal violet, SDS, Ammonium hydroxide) were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich (Denmark) Compounds tested for GCase activity were dissolved in H.sub.2O or DMSO.

    Methods

    [0316] The GM10915 cell line was cultured under standard cell culture conditions (37 C. and 5% CO.sub.2) in complete DMEM medium supplemented with nonessential amino acids (NEAA), 1% Pen-Strep and 12% FCS. Cells were seeded at a density of 10.sup.4 cells/well in 100 L complete medium in one black 96-well plate for glucosylceramidase (GCase) activity measurement and in one clear 96-well plate for crystal violet staining to correct for cell density. Crystal violet staining is performed to obtain quantitative information about the relative density of cells adhering to multi-wells plates.

    Assay of GCase Activity

    [0317] The assay was adapted from Sawkar et al (2002) and briefly described in the following. The day after seeding of cells, the medium was replaced with fresh medium containing the compounds to be tested. Compounds were tested in duplicate and in an 8-point diluted dose range to obtain a dose response. Cells were exposed with compounds for five days. Fresh compound was added every 2-3 days. PBS was included to define the basal level of GCase activity.

    [0318] Cells were washed three times with 200 L PBS per well and 50 L of 2.5 mM 4-MUG buffer (4-MUG dissolved in 0.2 M acetate buffer pH 4.0) was added and the cells were incubated at 37 C., 5% CO.sub.2 for 23 hours. The reaction was stopped by adding 150 L 0.2 M glycine buffer (pH 10.8). Fluorescence was measured with a Varioskan Flash reader (Thermo Scientific) at an excitation/emission setting of 365/445 nm.

    Crystal Violet Staining

    [0319] Cells were treated with compounds in a parallel setup identical to the setup to test for GCase activity. At the end of compound treatment, cells were washed once with 200 L PBS per well and 50 L 0.1% w/v crystal violet (in H.sub.2O) was added. Following 10 min. of incubation, the crystal violet solution was removed, and the cells were washed three times with 200 L PBS and 100 L 1% SDS was added to solubilize the stain. The plate was agitated on an orbital shaker for 10-30 min. Absorbance (A) is measured at 570 nM using a Varioskan Flash reader (Thermo Scientific).

    Calculations

    [0320] The fluorescence signal (F) derived from the GCase measurement is normalized to the absorbance signal (A) derived from the crystal violet staining. The percent GCase activity resulting from compound treatment is calculated relative to the basal activity obtained from untreated cells.

    [00001] Percent GCase activity = 100 * ( F / A ) c o mpound ( F / A ) u n t reated

    [0321] The potency, EC.sub.1.5, is determined based on the dose response effects of the compounds as the concentration where Percent GCase activity=150% corresponding to at 1.5-fold induction of GCase activity. Maximal effect of compounds (Emax) is determined from the dose response effects as the maximum Percent GCase activity achieved in the dose range tested.

    Results

    [0322] The GBA potencies and Emax were determined as described above in the present example and the results are shown in Table 1 below.

    CONCLUSION

    [0323] This example demonstrates that the dioxazines of the present disclosure are highly potent and efficacious in comparison with state-of-the-art GBA inducers like Ambroxol and LTI-291. These effects render the dioxazines of the present disclosure promising candidates for treatment of GBA-mediated disorders.
