摘要

<IMG> Pharmacologically active benzimidazolone derivatives as 5-HT1A and 5-HT2 receptors, useful in the treatment of CNS disorders of formula (I), wherein R1 and R2 may be at the same time or not a hydrogen atom, halogen, trifluoromethyl, C1-6 alkyl, C1-6 alkoxy, C1-6 alkylthio, C1-6 acyl, carboxyl, C1-6 alkoxy- carbonyl, hydroxy, nitro, amino optionally C1-4 alkyl N-mono or di-substituted, C1-6 acylamino, C1-6 alkoxycarbonylamino, carbamoy l optionally C1-4 alkyl N-mono or di-substituted, cyano, C1-6 alkylsulphinyl, C1-6 alkylsulphonyl, amino sulphonyl optionally C1-4 alkyl N-mono or di-substituted, Ct.~ al- kyl N-mono or di-substituted aminosulphonylamino, aminosulphonylamino; R3 is hydrogen, C1-6 alkyl, C2-6 alkenyl or C2-6 alkynyl; A is -CO- or -CONH- or it is absent; B is a straight or branched, saturated or unsaturated C2-6 alkyl; m and n are both independently an integer from 1 to 3; R4 is an aryl, aralkyl, a heteroaryl, or heteroaralkyl group, each group being optionally substituted by one or more substituents selected from halogen, trifluoromethyl, cyano, C1-3 alkoxy, C1-4 alkyl and acid addition salts thereof. The process for the preparation of the compound s of formula (I) as well as pharmaceutical compositions containing them are also described.
