potential treatment of complex and multifactorial diseases as well as for addictions and also smoke cessation. In this frame, following our interest in the development of molecules able to modulate either the endocannabinoid or the dopaminergic system, and given the multiple and reciprocal interconnections between them, we decided to merge the pharmacophoric elements of some of our early leads for

The present invention relates to new carbamate derivatives of formula I, processes for their preparation, and to pharmaceutical compositions containing them for the treatment of neurological disorders, such as neuropathic pain and anxiety.
Fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH, EC 3.5.1.99) is the main enzyme catabolizing endocannabinoid fatty acid amides. FAAH inactivation promotes beneficial effects upon pain and anxiety without the side effects accompanying agonists of type-1 cannabinoid receptors. Aiming at discovering new selective FAAH inhibitors, we developed a series of compounds (5a-u) characterized by a functionalized heteroaromatic scaffold. Particularly, 5c and 5d were identified as extremely potent, noncompetitive, and reversible FAAH inhibitors endowed with a remarkable selectivity profile and lacking interaction with the hERG channels. In vivo antinociceptive activity was demonstrated for 5c, 5d, and 5n at a dose much lower than that able to induce either striatal and limbic stereotypies or anxiolytic activity, thus outlining their potential to turn into optimum preclinical candidates. Aiming at improving pharmacokinetic properties and metabolic stability of 5d, we developed a subset of nanomolar dialyzable FAAH inhibitors (5v-z), functionalized by specific polyethereal lateral chains and fluorinated aromatic rings.
