Abstract

The novel compounds of formula I and salts thereof have a very powerful anti-depressive activity which for a considerable part, and in some substances even entirely, is based on serotonine potentiation. Moncamino oxidase inhibition does not contribute to the anti-depressive effect. The substances are little toxic and substantially free from side effects. The compounds can be synthesized and processed to compositions according to known methods.
