Claim:
A compound of formula (I) or a salt thereof M-T-Y A —NO 2 (I) wherein: M-T is the residue of 4-[5-(4-methylphenyl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl]benzenesulfonamide, wherein T=—SO 2 NH—, and Y A =—(B) b0 -(T C -Y) c0 — wherein: b0 and c0 are the integers 1 or 0, with the proviso that b0 and c0 cannot be simultaneously 0, B=-T B -X 2 -T BI -, in which: T B =CO; T BI =CO or X, in which X is O, S, NH, or NR, wherein R is an alkyl with 1-10 carbon atoms; X 2 is a divalent radical and is selected from the following compounds: wherein: n1 and n2 are integers 0 or 1; R 2 and R 3 are independently selected from H or CH 3 ; wherein: n2 and R 2 are as above defined; Y 1 is —CH 2 —CH 2 — or —CH═CH—(CH 2 ) n2′ — wherein n2′ is an integer 0 or 1; wherein: n4 is an integer from 1 to 20 and n5 is an integer from 0 to 20; R 4 , R 4′ , R 5 and R 5′ are independently selected from the group consisting of H, CH 3 , OH, NH 2 , NHCOCH 3 , and COOH; when the bond between the C A and C B carbons is a double bond, then R 4 and R 5 or R 4′ and R 5′ are absent; T C =CO, X wherein X is as defined above, or —(CH 2 ) n6 OC(O)— wherein n6 is an integer from 1 to 20; Y is a bivalent radical having the following meanings: d) —R 1 O—, in which R 1 is: straight or branched C 1 -C 20 -alkylene optionally containing one or more heteroatoms selected from oxygen, nitrogen, sulphur, or one or more groups —O(CO)—, —NH(CO)—, —S(CO)—, optionally substituted with one or more of the following groups —OH, —SH, —NH 2 , —NHCOR 6 , in which R 6 is straight or branched C 1 -C 10 -alkyl; cycloalkylene containing from 5 to 7 carbon atoms into cycloalkylene ring, wherein one or more carbon atoms can be replaced by heteroatoms selected from nitrogen, oxygen or sulphur, and the ring can be substituted with side chains R 6 , R 6 being as defined above; wherein n7 is an integer from 0 to 20, and n7′ is an integer from 1 to 20; wherein m is an integer from 1 to 6, Rf is a hydrogen atom or CH 3 ; wherein: nIX is an integer from 0 to 10; nIIX is an integer from 1 to 10; R TIX , R TIX′ , R TIIX , R TIIX′ , are the same or different, and are H or straight or branched C 1 -C 4 -alkyl; Y 3 is selected from the group consisting of: with the proviso that: when b0=0, and c0=1, then T C =(CO) or —(CH 2 ) n6 O(CO)—; when b0=1, then T B =CO; when b0=1, c0=1 and T B1 =CO then T C =X wherein X is as above defined; when b0=1, c0=1 and T B1 =X, wherein X is as above defined, then T C =(CO); when b0=1, c0=0 the T B1 has only the meaning of —O—.
