Alkoxy aryl compounds with affinity to the melatonine receptors, process for their preparation and pharmaceutical compositions containing them

摘要

Alkoxy aryl derivatives of formula (I), their enantiomers and diastereoisomers, and their salts, are new. R1 = 1-4C alkylene chain, opt. substd by alkyl, OH, alkoxycarbonyl or carboxyl; R2 = H or alkyl; R3 = a group R31 or R32; R31 = -C(=X)-(CH2)n-R5; R32 = -C(=X')-NH-(CH2)m-R6; n = 0-3; X = S or O; R5 = H, opt. substd alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, opt. substd cycloalkyl, or opt. substd dicycloalkylalkyl; X' = O or S; m = 0-3; R6 = H, opt. substd alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl, or may also be opt. substd cycloalkyl or opt. substd dicycloalkylalkyl when X' = O; A = alkyl or A'; A' = substd. alkyl, alkenyl, or alkynyl; R = opt. substd. alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, opt. substd cycloalkyl, opt. substd cycloalkylalkyl, opt. substd aryl, opt. substd aralkyl, opt. substd diarylalkyl, cycloalkenyl or cycloalkenyl alkyl; Y with the benzo group to which it is attached = a group Y'; Y' = naphthalene, benzofuran, benzothiophene, or indole if A = A', or Y = naphthalene if A = alkyl; Y' may be partially hydrogenated; with the provisos that: substituents on alkyl are one or more halo, OH, or alkoxy; substits on cycloalkyl, cycloalkylalkyl and dicycloalkylalkyl are one or more of halo, OH, alkyl, alkoxy or oxo; substits on aryl, arylalkyl and diarylalkyl are one or more halo, OH, alkyl, haloalkyl, or alkoxy; alkyl, alkoxy, alkenyl and alkynyl = up to 6C; cycloalkyl and cycloalkenyl = 3-8C; and aryl = phenyl or naphthyl.
