Said sulfonyl hydrazide derivatives are efficient modulators of the JNK pathway, they are in particular efficient inhibitors of JNK 2 and 3. The present invention is furthermore related to novel sulfonyl hydrazide derivatives as well as to methods of their preparation. In Formula (I) Arand Arare independently from each other an unsubstituted or substituted aryl or beteroaryl group, Xand Xare independently from each other O or S; R, R, Rare independently from each other hydrogen or a C-C-alkyl substituent or Rforms a substituted or unsubstituted 5-6-membered saturated or unsaturated ring with Ar; or Rand Rform a substituted or unsubstituted 5-6-membered saturated or unsaturated ring; n is an integer from 0 to 5; G is selected from a group comprising or consisting of an unsubstituted or substituted 4-8 membered heterocycle containing at least one heteroatom, or G is a substituted or unstibstituted C-C-alkyl group.
