First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A method of treating pain comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of formula I: wherein R 1 is pyrazinyl optionally substituted with one or more C 1-6 alkyl, halogen, hydroxy, C 1-4 fluoroalkyl, C 3-6 cycloalkyl, C 1-6 alkoxy, C 1-6 fluoroalkoxy, cyano or —SO 2 R 7 ; wherein R 2a and R 2b combine with the nitrogen to which they are attached to form piperazinyl, piperidinyl, morpholinyl, pyrrolidinyl, pyrrolo, imidazo, azetidinyl, 6 to 10 membered spiro(heterocyclyl), homomorpholinyl, homopiperidinyl or homopiperazinyl each of which is optionally substituted with one or more C 1-6 alkyl, C 1-6 alkenyl, C 3-6 -cycloalkyl, C 1-6 alkoxy, oxo, —NR 5 R 6 or fluorines; wherein R 3 is halogen, C 1-4 fluoroalkyl, cyano, cyclopropyl, C 1-4 alkyloxy, C 1-4 fluoroalkyloxy, —SO 2 R 7 , —NR 5 R 6 or C 1-6 alkyl; wherein R 4 is halogen, C 1-6 alkyl, C 1-4 fluoroalkyl, cyano, —SO 2 R 8 , —NR 5 R 6 , C 1-6 alkoxy, C 1-4 fluoroalkoxy or C 3-6 -cycloalkyl; wherein R 5 and R 6 independently of each other are hydrogen or C 1-6 alkyl; wherein R 7 is C 1-6 alkyl, C 3-6 cycloalkyl, C 1-4 fluoroalkyl; and wherein n is 0-3; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of said compound. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein R 2a and R 2b of said compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof combine with the nitrogen to which they are attached to form optionally substituted piperazinyl. 3. The method of claim 1 , wherein R 2a and R 2b of said compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof combine with the nitrogen to which they are attached to form optionally substituted piperidinyl. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein R 2a and R 2b of said compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof combine with the nitrogen to which they are attached to form optionally substituted morpholinyl. 5. The method of claim 1 , wherein R 2a and R 2b of said compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof combine with the nitrogen to which they are attached to form optionally substituted pyrrolidinyl. 6. The method of claim 1 , wherein R 2a and R 2b of said compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof combine with the nitrogen to which they are attached to form optionally substituted pyrrolo. 7. The method of claim 1 , wherein R 2a and R 2b of said compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof combine with the nitrogen to which they are attached to form optionally substituted imidazo. 8. The method of claim 1 , wherein R 2a and R 2b of said compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof combine with the nitrogen to which they are attached to form optionally substituted 6 to 10 membered spiro(heterocyclyl). 9. The method of claim 1 , wherein R 2a and R 2b of said compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof combine with the nitrogen to which they are attached to form optionally substituted homomorpholinyl. 10. The method of claim 1 , wherein R 2a and R 2b of said compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof combine with the nitrogen to which they are attached to form optionally substituted homopiperidinyl. 11. The method of claim 1 , wherein R 2a and R 2b of said compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof combine with the nitrogen to which they are attached to form optionally substituted homopiperazinyl. 12. The method of claim 1 , wherein R 3 of said compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is chlorine, methyl or trifluoromethyl. 13. The method of claim 1 , wherein n of said compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is n is 0. 14. The method of claim 1 , wherein n of said compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is n is 1. 15. The method of claim 1 , wherein n of said compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is n is 2. 16. The method of claim 1 , wherein R 4 of said compound or pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is fluorine, chlorine, C 1-3 alkyl, C 1-4 fluoroalkyl, cyano, C 1-3 alkoxy or C 1-4 fluoroalkoxy. 17. The method of claim 1 wherein said pain is acute pain. 18. The method of claim 1 wherein said pain is chronic pain. 19. The method of claim 1 wherein said pain is inflammatory pain. 20. The method of claim 1 wherein said pain is neuropathic pain or post-operative pain. 21. The method of claim 1 wherein said pain is caused by morphine tolerance, fibromyalgia, neuralgia, headache, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, irritable bowel syndrome or inflammatory bowel disease. 22. The method of claim 5 wherein said pain is neuropathic pain.
