5-aryl-Pyrazolo[4,3-d]pyrimidines, 6-aryl-Pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines and related compounds, as well as other chemically related compounds, that act as selective modulators of CRF 1 receptors are provided. These compounds are useful in the treatment of a number of CNS and periphereal disorders, particularly stress, anxiety, depression, cardiovascular disorders, and eating disorders. Methods of treatment of such disorders and well as packaged pharmaceutical compositions are also provided. Compounds of the invention are also useful as probes for the localization of CRF receptors and as standards in assays for CRF receptor binding. Methods of using the compounds in receptor localization studies are given.
