abstract |
The invention provides novel 2-methoxy-benzamide derivatives of the formula: <IMAGE> (I) in which n is 1 or 2; R1 represents a cycloalkyl-alkyl radical of formula: <IMAGE> a phenylalkyl radical of formula <IMAGE> (in which m is an integer from 2 to 5, A is a linear or branched alkylene chain of 1 to 4 carbon atoms, and R4 is hydrogen, halogen, especially fluorine or chlorine, trifluoromethyl, or alkyl or alkoxy of 1 to 3 carbon atoms), CNCH2-CH2-, CH 3BOND C-CH2-, <IMAGE> R2 is either chlorine, SO2 R5 (in which R5 is alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms), or SO2NR6R7 (in which, R6 and R7, which are identical or different, represent, independently of one another, hydrogen or alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms); and R3 is hydrogen or alkyl of 1 to 4 carbon atoms; in the form of racemates or optical isomers, and their pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts, which are useful in the treatment of psychosomatic and psychotic disturbances. |
