Les composés de la formule (I) présentent une activité antagoniste des récepteurs de 5HTC2C, et certains composés sont des antagonistes potentiels de 5HT2B. Lesdits composés seraient susceptibles d'être utilisés dans le traitement des affections du système nerveux central telles que l'angoisse, la dépression, l'épilepsie, les troubles obsessionnels compulsifs, la migraine, la maladie d'Alzheimer, les troubles du sommeil, les troubles de l'alimentation tels que l'anorexie et la boulimie, les crises de panique, le sevrage d'une drogue telle que la cocaïne, l'éthanol, la nicotine et les benzodiazépines, la schizophrénie, ainsi que les troubles associés aux traumatismes rachidiens et/ou aux traumatismes crâniens tels que l'hydrocéphalie. On s'attend également à ce que les composés précités soient utilisables dans le traitement de certains troubles gastro-intestinaux tels que le côlon irritable, et des maladies touchant les vaisseaux de petit calibre, par exemple la rétinopathie à ÷dème maculaire.
