Abstract

Abstract The invention concerns compounds of formula ##STR1## and acid addition and quaternary ammonium salts thereof, wherein the dotted line represents an optional bond, Ar represents a ring system of formula ##STR2## in which Q is O,S,--CR 7 ═CR 8 --, --N═CR 8 -- and --N═N--; R 4 , R 5 and R 6 , and R 7 and R 8 when present, each represent hydrogen or defined substituents and additionally either R 4 and R 5 when adjacent or R 6 and R 8 when adjacent, together with the carbon atoms to which they are attached also represent a fused five or six membered carbocyclic or heterocyclic ring optionally carrying one or more defined substituents; R is an optionally substituted aryl or heteroaryl radical or a cycloalkyl radical containing 5 to 7 carbon atoms; R 1 , R 2 , R 3 and R 9 are each hydrogen or a lower alkyl group; n is 0 or 1; X is ═O, ═S or ═NH; Y is --O-- or a direct bond and Z is --CO-- or --CH 2 -- with the proviso that when Ar is unsubstituted phenyl and R 9 is hydrogen then Y is --O--. The compounds of formula I exhibit psychotropic activity and are useful as antidepressants. Processes for preparing the compounds and pharmaceutical compositions containing them are disclosed.
