Abstract:
A class of imidazo[1,2-α]pyrimidine derivatives, substituted at the 3-position by an optionally substituted five-membered or six-membered heteroaromatic ring, are selective ligands for GABAA receptors, in particular having good affinity for the α2 and/or α3 and/or α5 subunit thereof, and are accordingly of benefit in the treatment and/or prevention of adverse conditions of the central nervous system, including anxiety, convulsions and cognitive disorders.
Abstract translation:一类由任选取代的五元或六元杂芳环在3-位上被取代的咪唑并[1,2-α]嘧啶衍生物,是GABA A A受体的选择性配体, 特别是对α2和/或α3和/或α5亚基具有良好的亲和力,因此有益于治疗和/或预防中枢神经系统的不利条件,包括焦虑,抽搐和认知障碍。
Abstract:
The present invention provides a compound of formula (I) wherein A is an optionally substituted C1-4alkylidene group or a bond, R20 and R21 are hydrogen, alkyl groups or heterocyclic groups, R1 and R2 are small substituents or hydrogen, L is O, S or substituted N, X is a 5- or 6-membered heteroaromatic ring, Y is C1-4alkylidene and Z is a 5- or 6-membered heteroaromatic ring; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; pharmaceutical compositions comprising it; its use in therapy; its use in making medicaments for treating neurodegenerative disease and methods of using it to enhance cognition.
Abstract:
Substituted heterocycles of the general structural formula: are tachykinin receptor antagonists useful in the treatment of inflammatory diseases, pain or migraine, asthma and emesis, and calcium channel blockers useful in the treatment of cardiovascular conditions such as angina, hypertension or ischemia.
Abstract:
A class of 1-[3-(1H-indol-3-yl)propyl]-4-(2-phenylethyl)piperazine derivatives, substituted at the 5-position of the indole nucleus by a five-membered heteroaromatic moiety, on one or other of the ethylene carbon atoms of the phenethyl moiety by halogen, trifluoromethyl, alkyl, hydroxyalkyl or alkoxyalkyl, and optionally on the phenyl ring of the phenethyl moiety by halogen, trifluoromethyl, alkoxy or an oxazolidinone group and optionally by one or two further substituents, are selective agonists of 5-HT.sub.1 -like receptors, being potent agonists of the human 5-HT.sub.1D .alpha. receptor subtype whilst possessing at least a 10-fold selective affinity for the 5-HT.sub.1D .alpha. receptor subtype relative to the 5-HT.sub.1D .beta. subtype; they are therefore useful in the treatment and/or prevention of clinical conditions, in particular migraine and associated disorders, for which a subtype-selective agonist of 5-HT.sub.1D receptors is indicated, whilst eliciting fewer side-effects, notably adverse cardiovascular events, than those associated with non-subtype-selective 5-HT.sub.1D receptor agonists.

Substituted heterocycles of the general structural formula: ##STR1## are tachykinin receptor antagonists useful in the treatment of inflammatory diseases, pain or migraine, asthma and emesis, and calcium channel blockers useful in the treatment of cardiovascular conditions such as angina, hypertension or ischemia.
Abstract:
A class of 1,4-disubstituted piperazine derivatives, further substituted on one of the carbon atoms of the piperazine ring, are selective agonists of 5-HT.sub.1 -like receptors, being potent agonists of the human 5-HT.sub.1D.alpha. receptor subtype whilst possessing at least a 10-fold selective affinity for the 5-HT.sub.1D.alpha. receptor subtype relative to the 5-HT.sub.1D.beta. subtype; they are therefore useful in the treatment and/or prevention of clinical conditions, in particular migraine and associated disorders, for which a subtype-selective agonist of 5-HT.sub.1D receptors is indicated, while eliciting fewer side-effects, notably adverse cardiovascular events, than those associated with non-subtype-selective 5-HT.sub.1D receptor agonists.
