The present invention provides spiro-oxazolones, which act as V1a receptor modulators, and in particular as V1a receptor antagonists, their manufacture, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use as medicaments. The present compounds are useful as therapeutics acting peripherally and centrally in the conditions of inappropriate secretion of vasopressin, anxiety, depressive disorders, obsessive compulsive disorder, autistic spectrum disorders, schizophrenia, aggressive behavior and phase shift sleep disorders, in particular jetlag.

Spiro-oxazolones

The present invention relates to 9-oxo-9,10-dihydro-6H-pyrano[3,2-b:4,5-b′]dipyridine-8-carboxylic acid derivatives, their manufacture, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use as a medicament.

9-oxo-9,10-dihydro-6H-pyrano[3,2-b:4,5-b′]dipyridine-8-carboxylic acid derivatives

This invention relates to a new medical use for certain chemical compounds and pharmaceutical compositions containing them. The invention relates to compounds which are selective V1a antagonists for use in the treatment of phase shift sleep disorders, in particular jetlag. In another aspect, the invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition for use in the treatment of phase shift sleep disorders comprising a compound according to the invention and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.

V1A antagonists to treat phase shift sleep disorders

Spiro-thiazolones

The present invention provides 4H,6H-5-oxa-2,3,10b-triaza-benzo[e]azulenes, which act as V1a receptor modulators, and in particular as V1a receptor antagonists, their manufacture, pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use as medicaments. The active compounds of the present invention are useful as therapeutics acting peripherally and centrally in the conditions of dysmenorrhea, male or female sexual dysfunction, hypertension, chronic heart failure, inappropriate secretion of vasopressin, liver cirrhosis, nephrotic syndrome, anxiety, depressive disorders, obsessive compulsive disorder, autistic spectrum disorders, schizophrenia, and aggressive behavior. 

Cyclohexyl-4H,6H-5-oxa-2,3,10b-triaza-benzo[e]azulenes as V1a antagonists

The present invention provides 4H,6H-5-oxa-2,3,10b-triaza-benzo[e]azulenes of the formula
