摘要

Novel 7-amino-benzocycloheptenes of the formula I wherein X is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, chlorine, bromine and iodine in the 2- or 4-position when a halogen, Y and Z are hydrogen or together form a double bond, R is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 5 carbon atoms and phenyl optionally substituted with fluorine, chlorine, methyl or methoxy, R1 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 5 carbon atoms and alkenyl of 2 to 5 carbon atoms and R2 is selected from the group consisting of alkyl of 1 to 5 carbon atoms and alkenyl of 2 to 5 carbon atoms and R1 and R2 taken together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached form a saturated heterocycle of 4 to 6 carbon atoms and optionally containing another hetero-atom and optionally substituted with an alkyl of 1 to 5 carbon atoms and their non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts having antidepressive activity and their preparation and novel intermediates.
