the enantiomers, the diastereomers, the mixtures thereof and the salts thereof, particularly the physiologically acceptable salts thereof with organic or inorganic acids or bases.

Terms and Definitions Used
Unless otherwise stated, all the substituents are independent of one another. If for example there are a plurality of C1-6-alkyl groups as substituents in one group, in the case of three C1-6-alkyl substituents, independently of one another, one may represent methyl, one n-propyl and one tert-butyl.
Within the scope of this application, in the definition of possible substituents, these may also be represented in the form of a structural formula. If present, an asterisk (*) in the structural formula of the substituent is to be understood as being the linking point to the rest of the molecule.
The subject-matter of this invention also includes the compounds according to the invention, including the salts thereof, wherein one or more hydrogen atoms, for example one, two, three, four or five hydrogen atoms, are replaced by deuterium.
By the term “C1-3-alkyl” (including those which are part of other groups) are meant alkyl groups with 1 to 3 carbon atoms, by the term “C1-4-alkyl” are meant branched and unbranched alkyl groups with 1 to 4 carbon atoms, by the term “C1-6-alkyl” are meant branched and unbranched alkyl groups with 1 to 6 carbon atoms and by the term “C1-8-alkyl” are meant branched and unbranched alkyl groups with 1 to 8 carbon atoms.

Examples of these include: cyclopropyl, cyclobutyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl or cycloheptyl.
Unless otherwise stated, the cyclic alkyl groups may be substituted by one or more groups selected from among methyl, ethyl, iso-propyl, tert-butyl, hydroxy, fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine.
By the term “C2-6-alkenyl” (including those which are part of other groups) are meant branched and unbranched alkenyl groups with 2 to 6 carbon atoms, provided that they have at least one double bond. Alkenyl groups with 2 to 4 carbon atoms are preferred. Examples of these include: ethenyl or vinyl, propenyl, butenyl, pentenyl, or hexenyl. Unless stated otherwise, the definitions propenyl, butenyl, pentenyl and hexenyl include all the possible isomeric forms of the groups in question. Thus, for example, propenyl includes 1-propenyl and 2-propenyl, butenyl includes 1-butenyl, 2-butenyl and 3-butenyl, 1-methyl-1-propenyl, 1-methyl-2-propenyl etc.
By the term “C2-6-alkynyl” (including those which are part of other groups) are meant branched and unbranched alkynyl groups with 2 to 6 carbon atoms, provided that they have at least one triple bond. Alkynyl groups with 2 to 4 carbon atoms are preferred. Examples of these include: ethynyl, propynyl, butynyl, pentynyl or hexynyl.

By the term “heterocyclic rings” are meant stable 4-, 5- or 6-membered monocyclic heterocyclic ring systems which may be both saturated and monounsaturated and besides carbon atoms may carry one or two heteroatoms which are selected from among nitrogen, oxygen and sulphur. Both nitrogen and sulphur heteroatoms may optionally be oxidised. The previously mentioned heterocycles may be linked to the rest of the molecule via a carbon atom or a nitrogen atom. The following compounds are mentioned by way of example:




“Cyclic imides” include for example succinimide, maleimide and phthalimide.
By the term “aryl” (including those which are part of other groups) are meant aromatic ring systems with 6 or 10 carbon atoms. Examples of these include phenyl, 1-naphthyl or 2-naphthyl; the preferred aryl group is phenyl. Unless otherwise stated, the aromatic groups may be substituted by one or more groups selected from among methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, iso-propyl, tert-butyl, hydroxy, methoxy, trifluoromethoxy, fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine, while the groups may be identical or different.
By the term “heteroaryl” are meant five- or six-membered heterocyclic aromatic groups which may contain one, two, three or four heteroatoms, selected from among oxygen, sulphur and nitrogen, and which additionally contain sufficient conjugated double bonds to form an aromatic system. These heteroaryls may additionally be benzo-fused to a phenyl ring, so that nine- or ten-membered bicyclic heteroaryls are formed.
The following are examples of five- or six-membered heterocyclic aromatic groups:




The following are examples of nine- or ten-membered heterocyclic aromatic groups:




Unless otherwise stated, the heteroaryls mentioned previously may be substituted by one or more groups selected from among methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, iso-propyl, tert-butyl, hydroxy, methoxy, trifluoromethoxy, fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine, while the groups may be identical or different. In addition, a nitrogen atom present in the heteroaryl group may be oxidised, thus forming an N-oxide.
By the term “oxo group” is meant an oxygen substituent at a carbon atom, which leads to the formation of a carbonyl group —C(O)—. The introduction of an oxo group as substituent at a non-aromatic carbon atom leads to the conversion of a —CH2 group into a —C(O) group. The introduction of an oxo group at an aromatic carbon atom leads to the conversion of a —CH group into a —C(O) group and result in the loss of aromaticity.
If they contain suitable basic functions, for example amino groups, compounds of general formula I may be converted, particularly for pharmaceutical use, into the physiologically acceptable salts thereof with inorganic or organic acids. Examples of inorganic acids for this purpose include hydrobromic acid, phosphoric acid, nitric acid, hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid, methanesulphonic acid, ethanesulphonic acid, benzenesulphonic acid or p-toluenesulphonic acid, while organic acids that may be used include malic acid, succinic acid, acetic acid, fumaric acid, maleic acid, mandelic acid, lactic acid, tartaric acid or citric acid.
In addition, the compounds of general formula I, if they contain suitable carboxylic acid functions, may if desired be converted into the addition salts thereof with inorganic or organic bases. Examples of inorganic bases include alkali or alkaline earth metal hydroxides, e.g. sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide, or carbonates, ammonia, zinc or ammonium hydroxides; examples of organic amines include diethylamine, triethylamine, ethanolamine, diethanolamine, triethanolamine, cyclohexylamine or dicyclohexylamine.
The compounds according to the invention may be present as racemates, provided that they have only one chiral element, but may also be obtained as pure enantiomers, i.e. in the (R) or (S) form.
However, the application also includes the individual diastereomeric pairs of antipodes or mixtures thereof, which are obtained if there is more than one chiral element in the compounds of general formula I, as well as the individual optically active enantiomers of which the above-mentioned racemates are made up.

(A) amide coupling:




(B) amide coupling:




(C) reductive amination of the aldehydes or ketones; reduction of the oximes previously formed from the aldehydes or ketones:




(D) nucleophilic substitution at 4-fluoro-aldehydes or ketones:




(E) reduction of the nitrile arouo:




(F) nucleophilic substitution at 4-fluoro-benzonitriles:




Description of the Method of hBK1 Receptor Binding
CHO cells expressing the hBK1 receptor are cultivated in Dulbecco's modified medium. The medium from confluent cultures is removed and the cells are washed with PBS buffer, scraped off and isolated by centrifugation. The cells are then homogenized in suspension and the homogenate is centrifuged and resuspended. The protein content is determined and the membrane preparation obtained in this manner is then frozen at −80° C.
After thawing, 200 μl of the homogenate (50 to 100 μg of proteins/assay) are incubated at room temperature with 0.5 to 1.0 nM of kallidin (DesArg10, Leu9), [3,4-prolyl-3,43H(N)] and increasing concentrations of the test substance in a total volume of 250 μl for 60 minutes. The incubation is terminated by rapid filtration through GF/B glass fibre filters which had been pretreated with polyethyleneimine (0.3%). The protein-bound radioactivity is measured in a TopCount NXT. Non-specific binding is defined as radioactivity bound in the presence of 1.0 μM of kallidin (DesArg10, Leu9), [3,4-prolyl-3,43H(N)]. The concentration/binding curve is analysed using a computer-assisted nonlinear curve fitting. The Ki which corresponds to the test substance is determined using the data obtained in this manner.

By the term “treatment” or “therapy” is meant a therapeutic treatment of patients with manifest, acute or chronic indications, this term including on the one hand symptomatic (palliative) treatment for relieving the symptoms of the disease and on the other hand the causal or curative treatment of the indication with the aim of bringing an end to the pathological condition, reducing the severity of the pathological condition or delaying the progress of the pathological condition, irrespective of the nature or gravity of the indication.
In another aspect the present invention relates to the use of a compound of general formula I for preparing a pharmaceutical composition for the acute and prophylactic treatment of acute pain, visceral pain, neuropathic pain, inflammatory pain or pain mediated by pain receptors, cancer pain and headache diseases.
The use is characterised in that it comprises administering an effective amount of a compound of general formula I or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof to a patient requiring such treatment.
In addition to being suitable as human therapeutic agents, these substances are also useful in the veterinary treatment of domestic animals, exotic animals and farm animals.
