Abstract

Indolyl alkyl amines of the following formula: ##SPC1## And their salts with organic or inorganic acids. In this formula I, A and A.sup.1 denote identical or different alkyl radicals which both together have a total of 3-8 C-atoms. R.sup.1 denotes hydrogen, a lower alkyl radical having up to 4 C-atoms or a possibly substituted benzyl or benzoyl radical. R.sup.2 and R.sup.3 may be the same or different and denote hydrogen, a halogen (more particularly chlorine, bromine or fluorine) or (possibly halogenated) lower alkyl radicals or (possibly etherified) hydroxy radicals. R.sup.4 denotes hydrogen, a lower alkyl radical, an acyl group or a (possibly substituted) benzyl radical or the cyano-ethyl group. The compounds are useful as anoretics (appetite inhibitors) and can be made by various disclosed methods.
