Claim:
A method for the treatment or prophylaxis of pain, comprising administering to a patient a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula (I) wherein R 1 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted alkenyl, substituted or unsubstituted arylalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted non-aromatic heterocyclyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclylalkyl, —COR 8 , —C(O)OR 8 , —C(O)NR 8 R 9 , —CH═NR 8 , —CN, —OR 8 , —OC(O)R 8 , —NR 8 R 9 , —NR 8 C(O)R 9 , —NO 2 , —N═CR 8 R 9 , and halogen; R 2 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted alkenyl, substituted or unsubstituted arylalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclylalkyl, —COR 8 , —C(O)OR 8 , —C(O)NR 8 R 9 , —CH═NR 8 , —CN, —OR 8 , —OC(O)R 8 , —S(O) t —R 8 , —NR 8 R 9 , —NR 8 C(O)R 9 , —NO 2 , —N═CR 8 R 9 , and halogen; R 3 and R 4 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted alkenyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl, substituted or unsubstituted arylalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclyl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclylalkyl, —COR 8 , —C(O)OR 8 , —C(O)NR 8 R 9 , —CH═NR 8 , —CN, —OR 8 , —OC(O)R 8 , —S(O) t —R 8 , —NR 8 R 9 , —NR 8 C(O)R 9 , —NO 2 , —N═CR 8 R 9 , and halogen, or together they form a fused ring system, R 5 and R 6 together form, with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached, a substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclyl group; n is 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 or 8; t is 1, 2 or 3; R 8 and R 9 are each independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted cycloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted alkenyl, substituted or unsubstituted aryl, substituted or unsubstituted heterocyclyl, substituted or unsubstituted alkoxy, substituted or unsubstituted aryloxy, and halogen; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
