The invention relates to a color developer of formula (I), (Ar.sup.1SO.sub.2NH)m-Y(NHC(O)NHSO.sub.2Ar.sub.2)n (I), wherein Ar.sup.1 is an unsubstituted or substituted aromatic moiety, Ar.sup.2 is an unsubstituted or substituted phenyl moiety, Y is at least an (m+n)-times substituted benzene group or naphthalene group, and Y is substituted in such a way that at least one Ar.sub.2SO.sub.2NHC(O)NH group is in ortho-position with respect to at least one Ar.sup.1SO.sub.2NH group. The invention further relates to a heat-sensitive recording material, comprising a carrier substrate and a heat-sensitive color-forming layer, which contains at least one color former and at least one phenol-free color developer, the at least one color developer being the compound of formula (I). The invention further relates to a method for producing said heat-sensitive recording material.

The present invention provides for certain sulfonyl ureas and related compounds which have advantageous properties and show useful activity in the inhibition of activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome. Such compounds are useful in the treatment of a wide range of disorders in which the inflammation process, or more specifically the NLRP3 inflammasome, have been implicated as being a key factor.

The present invention relates to phenylsulfonylureas and phenylsulfonylthioureas, wherein the phenyl ring is substituted with a monovalent group comprising either (i) an aryl or a heteroaryl group, or (ii) a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group, and wherein the group attached to the terminal nitrogen atom of the urea group is a 6-membered cyclic group substituted at the 2- and 4-positions. The present invention further relates to salts, solvates and prodrugs of such compounds, to pharmaceutical compositions comprising such compounds, and to the use of such compounds in the treatment and prevention of medical disorders and diseases, most especially by NLRP3 inhibition.
