Abstract: The present invention relates to novel carboxamide compounds of the formula I and their use for the manufacture of a medicament. The carboxamide compounds are prodrugs of inhibitors of calpain (calcium dependant cysteine proteases). The invention therefore also relates to the use of these carboxamide compounds for treating a disorder associated with an elevated calpain activity.

Abstract: The invention relates to compounds of the formula (I) wherein n is 0, 1 or 2; G is CH2 or CHR3; R1 is H, C,-C6-alkyl, C,-C6-alkyl substituted by C3-C6-cycloalkyl, C1-C6-hydroxyalkyl, fluorinated C,-C6-alkyl, C3-C6-cycloalkyl, fluorinated C3-C6-cycloalkyl, C3-C6 alkenyl, fluorinated C3-C6-alkenyl, formyl, acetyl or propionyl; R2, R3 and R4 are, independently of each other, H, methyl, fluoromethyl, difluoromethyl, or trifluoromethyl; A is phenylene, pyridylene, pyrimidylene, pyrazinylene, pyridazinylene or thiophenylene, which can be substituted by one or more substituents selected from halogen, methyl, methoxy and CF3; E is NR5 or CH2, wherein R5 is H or C1-C3-alkyl; Ar is a cyclic radical selected from the group consisting of phenyl, a 5- or 6-membered heteroaromatic radical comprising as ring members 1, 2 or 3 heteroatoms selected from N, O and S and a phenyl ring fused to a saturated or unsaturated 5- or 6-membered carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring, where the heterocyclic ring comprises as ring members 1, 2

Abstract: The invention relates to compounds of formula (I), wherein n is 1 or 2, Ar is a C-bound 1,2,4-triazol radical which carries a radical R1 on the remaining carbon atom and a radical R1a on one of the nitrogen atoms; R1 is hydrogen, C1-C6 alkyl, C3-C6 cycloalkyl, C1-C4 alkoxymethyl, fluorinated C1-C6 alkyl, fluorinated C3-C6 cycloalkyl, fluorinated C1-C4 alkoxymethyl, or optionally substituted phenyl or 5- or 6-membered heteroaryl; R1a is hydrogen or C1-C4 alkyl; and R2 is C1-C6 alkyl, C3-C6 cycloalkyl, fluorinated C1-C6 alkyl or fluorinated C3-C6 cycloalkyl; and to the physiologically tolerated acid addition salts of there compounds.
