Abstract

An objective of the present invention is to provide compounds having Rho kinase inhibitory activity and useful for the treatment of diseases mediated by Rho kinase. The compounds according to the present invention are those represented by formula (I) or pharmaceutically acceptable salts or solvates thereof: wherein Q represents phenyl, pyridyl, pyrrolyl, thienyl, or furyl; these groups are optionally substituted by one or two halogens or alkyl, nitro, or amino groups; and p is 2 or 3.

Claims (33)

1. A compound represented by formula (I) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof:

wherein Q represents a cyclic group selected from phenyl, pyridyl, pyrrolyl, thienyl, and furyl; one or two hydrogen atoms on the cyclic group are optionally substituted by a substituent selected from the group consisting of a halogen atom, C 1-4 alkyl, nitro, and amino; and p is 2.

2. The compound according to claim 1 , wherein Q represents a cyclic group selected from phenyl, 2-chlorophenyl, 3-chlorophenyl, 4-chlorophenyl, 4-fluorophenyl, 2,6-difluorophenyl, 2,6-dichlorophenyl, 4-methylphenyl, 4-isopropylphenyl, 2-nitrophenyl, 3-nitrophenyl, 4-nitrophenyl, 4-chloro-2-nitrophenyl, 2-pyridyl, 3-pyridyl, 4-pyridyl, 2-aminophenyl, 3-aminophenyl, 4-aminophenyl, 2-amino-4-chlorophenyl, 1H-2-pyrrolyl, 1H-3-pyrrolyl, 2-thienyl, 3-thienyl, 2-furyl, and 3-furyl.

3. The compound according to claim 1 , wherein Q represents 3-nitrophenyl or 3-aminophenyl.

4. The compound according to claim 1 , which is selected from the group consisting of:

(1) N5-[1-(2-chlorobenzyl)tetrahydro-1H-3 -pyrrolyl]-5-isoquinolylamine;

(2) N5-[1-(3-chlorobenzyl)tetrahydro-1H-3-pyrrolyl]-5-isoquinolylamine;
