SUBSTITUTED AMIDES, THEIR PREPARATION AND PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING THEM

摘要

The invention provides new substituted amides of formula R-CONH-Het in which: either R is phenyl substituted by acyloxy, alkylthio or alkyloxycarbonylamino, or by chloro at the 2- or 4-position, or by two alkyloxy radicals, or R is 2- or 4-pyridyl, pyrazinyl, 5,6-dihydrodithiin-2-yl, 5,6-dihydrooxathiin-2-yl, 1,3-dithiolyl, thiazolyl or substituted thienyl or furyl, or R is alkenyl (of 2 to 4 carbons) unsaturated in the alpha -position to the amide carbonyl, and Het is 1,8-naphthyridin-2-yl substituted at the 7-position by halogen, alkyloxy, phenoxy, 3-chloro- or dichlorophenoxy, hydroxy or cyano, or R is methoxyphenyl and Het is 1,8-naphthyridin-2-yl substituted in the 7-position by 3-chloro- or dichlorophenoxy, hydroxy or cyano, or R is methoxy-3-pyridazinyl and Het is 1,8-naphthyridin-2-yl substituted at the 7-position by phenoxy, the said alkyl and acyl radicals containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms in a linear or branched chain, their preparation and the pharmaceutical compositions which contain them. These new amides are useful as anxiolytics, hypnotics and muscle relaxants.
