The present invention concerns compounds of Formula I that inhibit HIF prolyl hydroxylase, their use for enhancing endogenous production of erythropoietin, and for treating conditions associated with reduced endogenous production of erythropoietin such as anemia and like conditions, as well as pharmaceutical compositions comprising such a compound and a pharmaceutical carrier.

A specific nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound having a urea structure, an electron transporting material containing the nitrogen-containing heterocyclic compound, and an organic electroluminescence device including a light emitting layer and an electron transporting layer between a cathode and an anode in which the electron transporting layer includes the electron transporting material or the nitrogen-containing heterocyclic derivative. An organic EL device exhibiting high emission efficiency even at low voltage and a material for organic EL devices are described.

The present disclosure is directed to compounds of formula (I) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, wherein ring A, ring B, L, R.sup.1, R.sup.2, R.sup.3, R.sup.4, R.sup.5, R.sup.a, R.sup.b, n, m, p and q are as defined herein, which are active as modulators of retinoid-related orphan receptor gamma t (RORγt). These compounds prevent, inhibit, or suppress the action of RORγt and are therefore useful in the treatment of RORγt mediated diseases, disorders, syndromes or conditions such as, e.g., pain, inflammation, COPD, asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, colitis, multiple sclerosis, psoriasis, neurodegenerative diseases and cancer.
