Abstract

Phenethanolamine derivatives are disclosed of formula ##STR1## wherein m is 2 to 8; n is 1 to 7 provided that m+n is 4 to 12; PA1 Ar is phenyl or phenyl substituted by one or two halogen atoms, alkyl or alkoxy groups or by an alkylenedioxy group; PA1 R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are hydrogen or alkyl provided that the sum total of carbon atoms in R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 is not more than 4; and the physiologically acceptable salts and solvates thereof. The compounds have a selective stimulant action at .beta..sub.2 -adrenoreceptors and may be used inter alia in the treatment of diseases associated with reversible airways obstructions such as asthma and chronic bronchitis. The compounds may be formulated in conventional manner as pharmaceutical compositions with physiologically acceptable carriers or excipients.
