Abstract
The present invention relates to triazole derivatives of formula (I) notably for use as pharmaceutically active compounds, as well as pharmaceutical formulations containing such triazole derivatives. Said triazoles are useful in the treatment and/or prevention of preterm labor, premature birth, dysmenorrhea, inappropriate secretion of vasopressin, congestive heart failure, arterial hypertension, liver cirrhosis, nephrotic syndrome and ocular hypertension. In particular, the present invention is related to triazole derivatives displaying a substantial modulatory, in particular antagonistic activity, of the oxytocin and/or vasopressin receptor. More preferably, said compounds are useful in the treatment and/or prevention of disease states mediated by oxytocin and/or vasopressin. The present invention is furthermore related to novel triazole derivatives as well as to methods of their preparation.
