    摘要: The present invention relates to novel compounds of formula (I) or salts thereof: wherein A is a substituent selected in the group consisting of P, P1, P2 and P3 wherein P is P1 is P2 is P3 is p is an integer ranging from 0 to 4; R4 is selected in the group consisting of halogen, hydroxy, cyano, C1-4 alkyl, haloC1-4alkyl, C1-4alkoxy, haloC1-4alkoxy, C1-4alkanoyl, SF5 and a 5- or 6-membered monocyclic heteroaryl group; and when p is an integer ranging from 2 to 4, each R4 may be the same or different; R2 is hydrogen or C1-4alkyl; q is 3, 4 or 5; n is 0, 1 or 2; X is —CR1R3— or —O—; R1 is selected in the group consisting of hydrogen, C1-4 alkyl and fluorine; R3 is selected in the group consisting of hydrogen, C1-4alkyl and fluorine; R5 is selected in the group consisting of: hydrogen, halogen, hydroxy, cyano, C1-4alkyl, C3-7 cycloalkyl, C1-4alkoxy, haloC1-4alkoxy, C1-4alkanoyl and NR′R″; or R5 is a phenyl group, a 5-14 membered heterocyclic group; and any of such phenyl or heterocyclic group is optionally substituted by 1, 2, 3 or 4 substituents selected from the group consisting of: halogen, cyano, haloC1-4alkyl, C1-4 alkoxy, C1-4alkanoyl and SF5; R6 is selected in the group consisting of: hydrogen, halogen, hydroxy, cyano, C1-4alkyl, C3-7 cycloalkyl, C1-4alkoxy, haloC1-4alkoxy, C1-4alkanoyl and NR′R″; or R6 is a phenyl group, a 5-14 membered heterocyclic group and any of such phenyl or heterocyclic group is optionally substituted by 1, 2, 3 or 4 substituents selected from the group consisting of: halogen, cyano, haloC1-4alkyl, C1-4 alkoxy, C1-4alkanoyl and SF5; R7 is selected in the group consisting of: hydrogen, halogen, hydroxy, cyano, C1-4alkyl, C3-7 cycloalkyl, C1-4alkoxy, haloC1-4 alkoxy, C1-4 alkanoyl and NR′R″; or R7 is a phenyl group, a 5-14 membered heterocyclic group; and any of such phenyl or heterocyclic group is optionally substituted by 1, 2, 3 or 4 substituents selected from the group consisting of: halogen, cyano, haloC1-4alkyl, C1-4 alkoxy, C1-4alkanoyl and SF5; R8 is selected in the group consisting of: hydrogen, halogen, hydroxy, cyano, C1-4alkyl, C3-7 cycloalkyl, C1-4alkoxy, haloC1-4 alkoxy, C1-4 alkanoyl and NR′R″; or R8 is a phenyl group, a 5-14 membered heterocyclic group; and any of such phenyl or heterocyclic group is optionally substituted by 1, 2, 3 or 4 substituents selected from the group consisting of: halogen, cyano, haloC1-4alkyl, C1-4 alkoxy, C1-4alkanoyl and SF5; R9 is selected in the group consisting of hydrogen, a phenyl group, a heterocyclyl group, a 5- or 6-membered monocyclic heteroaryl group, and a 8- to 11-membered heteroaryl bicyclic, any of which groups is optionally substituted by 1, 2, 3 or 4 substituents selected from the group consisting of: halogen, cyano, C1-4 alkyl, haloC1-4alkyl, C1-4alkoxy and C1-4alkanoyl; R10 is C1-4alkyl; R11 is hydrogen or C1-4alkyl; R′ is H, C1-4 alkyl or C1-4 alkanoyl; R″ is defined as R′; R′ and R″ taken together with the interconnecting nitrogen atom may form a 5-, 6-membered saturated or unsaturated heterocyclic ring; wherein R5, R6, R7 and R8 are not simultaneously other than hydrogen; wherein only one R2 group ma be different from hydrogen and wherein when n is 0, X is a group —CR1R3—; processes for their preparation, intermediates used in these processes, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use in therapy, as modulators of dopamine D3 receptors, e.g. to treat drug dependency, as antipsychotic agents, to treat obsessive compulsive spectrum disorders, premature ejaculation or to enhance cognition.
