摘要

The present invention provides compounds of formula I that bind to mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase-2 (ALDH2), and methods of using said compounds to treat patients with i.a. cancer, Fanconi anemia and alcohol-related disorders. [Formula should be inserted here] wherein i.a. A is O or NH; RA is H, cycloalkyl or alkyl optionally substituted with a carbocycle; X1 and X2 are N or CH; R1, R2, R3 and R4 are H; and Z is an optionally substituted 5- or 6-membered aromatic ring.
