Abstract

The present invention relates to novel compounds acting as agonists at S1P (sphingosine-1-phosphate) receptors, compositions containing these compounds, use of these compounds in medicine and their process of preparation.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A compound of formula (I):

wherein:
Ar is a phenyl group optionally substituted by one or more identical or different group(s) selected from the group consisting of halogen, alkyl, cycloalkyl, —Oalkyl, and phenyl;
R1 represents —X—(Y) n —
where
—X— is selected from the group consisting of -alkyl-, -alkenyl-, -alkynyl-, -aryl-, and -alkylaryl-,
each Y, identical or different is selected from the group consisting of H, OH, halogen, —Oalkyl, —Oalkylaryl, —OalkylOalkyl, —Oaryl, heteroaryl, —Oaryl(Oalkyl), —Ocycloalkyl, -cycloalkyl, and heterocyclyl;
n is 1 to 3; and where R1 is not —C(═O)OH; and

R2 is H or alkyl;
or one of its stereoisomers or salts thereof.

2. The compound according to claim 1 , wherein Ar is a phenyl group substituted with two identical or different groups in addition to the oxadiazole group.

3. The compound according to claim 1 of formula (II):

wherein:
R3 is selected from halogen, phenyl, cycloalkyl, alkyl, and —Oalkyl;
Hal represents a halogen atom.
