Novel pyrimidine-5-carboxamide derivatives bearing a 3-chloro-4-methoxybenzylamino group at the 4-position were identified as potent and highly selective phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitors. Among them, we successfully found 10j (avanafil) which exhibited a potent relaxant effect on isolated rabbit cavernosum (EC30 = 2.1 nM) and a high isozyme selectivity.

1. A cyclic compound of the formula (I) or a pharmacologically acceptable salt thereof, wherein X is ═CH— or ═N—, Y is —NH—, —NR4—, —S—, —O—, —CH═N—, —N═CH—, —N═N—, —CH═CH—, etc., R1 is a lower alkoxy group, an amino group, a heterocyclic ring containing N atom(s), or a hydroxy group substituted by a heterocyclic ring containing N atom(s) (each of which is optionally substituted), R2 is a lower alkylamino group which is optionally substituted by an aryl group, a lower alkoxy group which is optionally substituted by an aryl group, a lower alkoxy group substituted by an aromatic heterocyclic ring containing N atom(s), R3 is an aryl group, a heterocyclic ring containing N atom(s), a lower alkyl group, a lower alkoxy group, a cyclo lower alkoxy group, a hydroxy group substituted by a heterocyclic ring containing N atom(s), or an amino group (each of which is optionally substituted), and R3 and a substituent in Y may be combined to form a lactone ring. The compound of the present invention has excellent selective PDE V inhibitory activity and therefore, is useful as a therapeutic or prophylactic drug for treating various diseases due to functional disorders on cGMP-signaling.
