Abstract:
Imidazole compounds represented by general formula (I): wherein each symbol is as defined in the specification, and salts thereof, and a pharmaceutical composition containing same are provided. These compounds are useful in treating the diseases curable based on a hypoglycemic action, and the diseases curable based on a cGMP-PDE inhibitory action, a smooth muscle relaxing action, a bronchodilating action, a vasodilating action, a smooth muscle cell inhibitory action and an allergy inhibitory action.
Abstract:
A sulfonamide compound of the formula (I): R1—SO2NHCO—A—X—R2 (I) wherein R1 is alky, alkenyl, alkynyl and the like; A is an optionally substitutedheteropolycyclic group except benzimidazolyl, indolyl, 4,7-dihydrobenzimidazolyland 2,3-dihydrobenzoxazinyl; X is alkylene, oxa, oxa(lower)alkylene and the like; and R2 is optionally substituted aryl, substituted biphenylyl and the like, a salt thereof and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the same. The sulfonamide compound is effective for the diseases treatable based on their blood sugar level-depressing activity, cGMP-PDE (especially PDE-V)-inhibiting activity, smooth muscle relaxing activity, bronchodilating activity, vasodilating activity, smooth muscle cell suppressing activity, and antiallergic activity.
