Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (CDK5) is a serine/threonine kinase that plays a critical role in the early development of the nervous system. Deregulation of CDK5 is believed to contribute to the abnormal phosphorylation of various cellular substrates associated with neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, and ischemic stroke. Acyclic urea 3 was identified as a potent CDK5 inhibitor and co-crystallographic data of urea 3/CDK2 enzyme were used to design a novel series of 3,4-dihydroquinazolin-2(1H)-ones as CDK5 inhibitors. In this investigation we present our synthetic studies toward this series of compounds and discuss their biological relevance as CDK5 inhibitors.
