<p>Compounds of formula II: <CHEM> wherein n is 0, 1 or 2, R1, R2, R3 and R4 are each separately selected from hydrogen, unsubstituted acyclic aliphatic hydrocarbon groups having a maximum of six carbon atoms and C1-6 alkyl groups substituted by a hydroxy group or a C1-6 alkoxy group, or one of R1 and R2 and one of R3 and R4 is hydrogen and the others are a trimethylene, tetramethylene or pentamethylene bridging group, and R5 as hydrogen or an unsubstituted acyclic aliphatic hydrocarbon group having a maximum of six carbon atoms, but with the provisos that (a) when n is 0 the combinations R1 = R2 = R3 = R4 = R5 = H and R1 = R2 = R3 = R5 = H, R4 = methyl are excluded, and (b) when n is 0, R1, R3 and R5 are each hydrogen, and each of R2 and R4 is other than hydrogen the compound is in other than the meso or erythro configuration, or a salt thereof formed with a physiologically acceptable inorganic or organic acid, are of use in therapy, particularly as cardioprotective agents.</p> |
