Patients suffering from or susceptible to an idiopathic chronic inflammatory bowel disease (e.g., ulcerative colitis) are treated with pharmaceutical compositions. Those patients are treated by administration of an effective amount of aryl substituted aliphatic compound, an aryl substituted olefinic amine compound or an aryl substituted acetylenic compound. Exemplary compounds are (E)-4-(5-pyrimidinyl)-3-butene-1-amine, (E)-4-[3-(5-methoxypyridin)yl]-3-butene-1-amine, (E)-N-methyl-4-(5-pyrimidinyl)-3-butene-1-amine, (E)-N-methyl-4-[3-(5-methoxypyridin)yl]-3-butene-1-amine, (E)-metanicotine, (Z)-metanicotine, N-methyl-(3-pyridinyl)-butane-1-amine, N-methyl-4-(3-pyridinyl)-3-butyne-1-amine and (E)-N-methyl-4 -[3-(6-methylpyrindin)yl]-3-butone-1-amine.
