Abstract

Novel imidazole derivatives are disclosed. These compounds have a good affinity to the NMDA (N-methyl-D-aspartate)-receptor subtype selective blockers, which have a key function in modulating neuronal activity and plasticity which makes them key players in mediating processes underlying development of CNS as well as learning and memory formation. These compounds are useful in the control or treatment of diseases mediated by this receptor.
