New (cyanomethyl)pyridines.

摘要

57 The present invention relates to new (cyanomethyl)pyridines of general formula I: <CHEM> wherein A is nitrogen and B is -CH-, or B is nitrogen and A is -CH-; the group Y-W- represents a group of formula N-CR1(CN)-, N-CH2-CH(CN)-, CH-CH(CN)- or C=C(CN)- wherein R1 is hydrogen or a C1-C6 alkyl group; R represents a group of formula R2CO-, R3R4N-(CH2)nCO- or R5-(CH2)m- wherein R2 represents C1-C15 alkyl, aryl, aryl-(C1-C6)-alkyl, aryl-(C1-C6)-alkenyl, diaryl-(C1-C6)-alkyl, diaryl-(C1-C6)-alkenyl, arylhydroxy-(C1-C6)-alkyl, diarylhydroxy-(C1-C6)-alkyl, aryl-(C1-C6)-alkoxy, diaryl-(C1-C6)-alkoxy, or heteroaryl-(C1-C6)-alkyl group; n is 0, 1, 2 or 3; R3 is hydrogen, C1-C6 alkyl, aryl or aryl-(C1-C6)-alkyl group; R4 is C3-C6 cycloalkyl, aryl, aryl-(C1-C6)-alkyl, diaryl-(C1-C6)-alkyl, aryl-(C1-C6)-alkylcarbonyl or diaryl-(C1-C6)-alkylcarbonyl group; m is 0, 1 or 2; and R5 is aryl-(C1-C6)-alkyl, diaryl-(C1-C6)-alkyl, diaryl-(C1-C6)-alkylcarbonylamino or diaryl-(C1-C6)-alkylaminocarbonyl group. These compounds are potent, orally active PAF antagonists and consequently, useful in the treatment of the diseases in which this substance is involved.
