The present invention relates to compounds of formulae I and II. The compounds are useful for treating hypertension, atherosclerosis, pulmonary diseases, diabetes, pain, fibrosis, addictive disorders, inflammation, and immunological disorders or a condition treatable or preventable by inhibition of soluble epoxide hydrolase. Preferred compounds are N-((adamantan-1-yl)carbamoyl)-benzenesulfonamide derivatives. Exemplary compounds are e.g. N(((1r,3s,5R,7S)-3-hydroxyadamantan-1-yl)carbamoyl)-4-methylbenzenesulfonamide (example 14, compound 4a) 4-(tert-butyl)-N(((1r,3s,5R,7S)-3-hydroxyadamantan-1-yl)carbamoyl)benzenesulfonamide (example 15, compound 4b) N(((1r,3s,5R,7S)-3-hydroxyadamantan-1-yl)carbamoyl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzenesulfonamide (example 16, compound 4j). The present description discloses the synthesis and characterisation of exemplary compounds as well as pharmacological data thereof.
