Substituted indoles

Claim 1

A member selected from the group consisting of a compound having a formula selected from the group consisting of: ##STR57## and ##STR58## and the therapeutically active acid addition salts thereof, wherein: X and X 1 are each members selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, loweralkyl, loweralkoxy, halo, loweralkylamino and acylamino; provided that X and X 1 are not both acylamino; R 1 is a member selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, loweralkyl, cycloalkyl, phenyl, substituted phenyl, phenylloweralkyl, substituted phenylloweralkyl wherein said substitution is on only the phenyl portion, loweralkoxyloweralkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, cycloalkylloweralkyl, and cycloalkenyl; R 2 is a member selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, loweralkyl, phenyl, biphenyl, naphthyl, substituted phenyl, heterocyclic aryl, phenylloweralkyl, and substituted phenylloweralkyl wherein said substitution is on only the phenyl portion; Z is a member selected from the group consisting of thio, sulfinyl, and sulfonyl; n is the integer 1, 2, or 3; R 3 is a member selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and loweralkyl; R 4 is a member selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, loweralkyl, phenyl, substituted phenyl, phenylloweralkyl, substituted phenylloweralkyl wherein said substitution is on only the phenyl portion, cycloalkyl, hydroxyloweralkyl, and alkenyl; A and B taken individually are each loweralkyl; A and B taken together is a member selected from the group consisting of --CH 2 CH(R 5 )CH 2 --, --CH 2 CH 2 CH(R 5 )--, --N(R 6 )CH(R 5 )(CH 2 ) m --, --(CH 2 ) 4 --, and --(CH 2 ) 5 --, said R 5 being a member selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, loweralkyl, phenyl, and substituted phenyl, said R 6 being a member selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and lower-alkyl, and said m being 1 or 2; provided that when m is 2, R 5 is H; said cycloalkyl having from 3 to about 8 carbon atoms, said alkenyl having from 2 to about 5 carbon atoms; said alkynyl having from about 2 to about 5 carbon atoms; said cycloalkenyl having from 5 to about 7 carbon atoms; said cycloalkylloweralkyl having from 3 to about 8 carbon atoms in its cycloalkyl portion and from 1 to about 5 carbon atoms in its loweralkyl portion; said acyl consisting of loweralkyl carboxy radicals, phenyl carboxy radicals, and substituted phenyl carboxy radicals; said substituted phenyl being phenyl substituted with from 1 to 3 members each selected from the group consisting of loweralkyl, loweralkoxy, and halo; and said heterocyclic aryl comprising 5- to 10-membered heteroaromatics wherein the hetero atoms are one or more thia, aza or oxa atoms.
