Substituted benzenesulfonylureas and thioureas-process for their preparation and their use as pharmaceuticals

Benzenesulfonylureas and -thioureas of the formula I ##STR1## where R(1) is H or (fluoro)methyl, R(2) is H, Hal or (fluoro)(mercapto)alk(ozy)yl, E is O or S; Y is --[CR(3).sub.2 ].sub.n --, where R(3)=H or alkyl and n=1-4, X is H, Hal or alkyl and Z in Hal, NO.sub.2 or alk(yl)oxy, are described. The compounds I are used for treatment of disturbances in cardiac rhythm and prevention of sudden cardiac death caused by arrhythmia, and can therefore be used as antiarrhythmics. They are particularly suitable for those cases where arrhythmias are a consequence of a narrowing of a coronary vessel, such as angina pectoris or acute cardiac infarction.

They are particularly suitable for those cases where arrhythmias are a consequence of a narrowing of a coronary vessel, such as angina pectoris or acute cardiac infarction.

Substituted benzenesulfonylureas and thioureas process for their

This invention relates to substituted benzenesulfonylureas and -thioureas, processes for their preparation, and uses of the pharmaceutical products based on these compounds. The substituted benzenesulfonylureas and -thioureas are of the formula I ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3 E, and y are as defined in the specification. The compounds of formula I have antiarrhythmic activity.

Benzenesulfonylureas and -thioureas of the formula I ##STR1## where R(1) is H or (fluoro)methyl, R(2) is H, Hal or (fluoro) (mercapto) alk (oxy) yl, E is O or S; Y is --[CR(3).sub.2 ]n-, where R(3)=H or alkyl and n=1-4, X is H, Hal or alkyl and Z is Hal, NO.sub.2 or alk(yl)oxy, are described. The compounds I are used for treatment of disturbances in cardiac rhythm and prevention of sudden cardiac death caused by arrhythmia, and can therefore be used as antiarrhythmics. They are particularly suitable for those cases where arrhythmias are a consequence of a narrowing of a coronary vessel, such as angina pectoris or acute cardiac infarction.

Substituted benzenesulfonylureas and -thioureas- process for their

There are described amino-substituted benzenesulfonylureas and -thioureas of the formula I ##STR1## The compounds I are used for the treatment of cardiac arrhythmias and for the prevention of sudden heart death caused by arrhythmias and can therefore be used as antiarrhythmics. They are particularly suitable for those cases in which arrhythmias are a result of constriction of a coronary vessel, such as in angina pectoris or in acute cardiac infarct.
