This invention provides a serotonin 5-HT,receptor partial activator which has a serotonin 5-HT,receptor activating action, in addition to its serotonin 5-HT,receptor antagonism, and does not cause constipation as a side effect. Particularly, based on the finding that newly synthesized benzoxazole derivatives typified by the compounds of the following formula (2) have strong serotonin 5-HT,receptor antagonism and serotonin 5-HT,receptor activating action, this invention provides these benzoxazole derivatives as serotonin 5-HT,receptor partial activators.
