DERIVATIVES OF 4-HYDROXYBUTANOIC ACID AND OF ITS HIGHER HOMOLOGUE AS LIGANDS OF gamma -HYDROXYBUTYRATE (GHB) RECEPTORS, PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING SAME AND PHARMACEUTICAL USES
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2002042250
Kind Code:
B1
Abstract:
The invention concerns the field of synthesis organic chemistry applied to the pharmaceutical field and concerns novel derivatives of 4-hydrxoybutanoic acid and of its higher homologue, 5-hydroxypentanoic acid, their crotonic homologues, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their pharmaceutical uses. Said novel derivatives are capable of binding with gamma -hydroxybutyrate (GHB)-specific receptors and hence capable of exhibiting agonist or antagonist properties, in particular for treating sleep disorders, anxiety and general diseases of the central nervous system.
