The invention concerns novel products of general formula (I), the preparation, the pharmaceutical compositions containing them and their use for preparing medicines. In said formula, Ar represents a substituted or condensed phenyl radical, or polycyclic or heterocyclic aromatic radical; R represents a radical of general formula -(CH2)m-X1-(CH2)n-Z in which X1 represents a single bond, O, S; m = 0, 1; n = 0, 1, 2; the CH2 radicals can be substituted; Z represents carboxy, COOR6, (R6 = alkyl), CON(R7)(R8) (R7 = hydrogen or alkyl) and R8 = hydrogen hydroxy, arylsulphonyl, heterocyclyl, amino optionally substituted, alkyloxy optionally substituted, alkyl optionally substituted, amino, PO(OR9)2 (R9 = hydrogen or alkyl), a -NH-CO-T (T = hydrogen or alkyl optionally substituted), or else (II); R1 and R2 = hydrogen or halogen or alkyl, alkyloxy optionally substituted, alkylthio, alkyloxycarbonyl or else R1 and R2 in the ortho position relative to each other, form a heterocyclic compound containing 1 or 2 heteroatoms optionally substituted; R3 and R4 = hydrogen or halogen or alkyl, alkylene, alkyloxy, alkylthio, carboxy or alkyloxycarbonyl; R5 = hydrogen, alkyl, alkylthio; X = O or S or -NH-, -CO- methylene, vinyldiyl, alkene-1,1-diyl or cycloalkan-1,1-diyl; and Y = O or S in racemic form and the optical isomers and salts of the product of general formula (I). The products of formula (I) are inhibitors of farnesyl transferase which remarkable tumoricidal and anti-leukemic properties. |
