Therapeutically useful thioformamide derivatives of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R represents alkyl, Ar represents optionally substituted phenyl group, Y represents ethylene, methylene or a valency bond, and X represents carbonyl, hydroxymethylene, &gt;C.dbd.NOR.sup.1, &gt;C.dbd.NN(R.sup.1).sub.2 or &gt;C.dbd.NN(R.sup.1)CON(R.sup.1).sub.2 in which R.sup.1 represents hydrogen or optionally substituted alkyl, benzyl, phenethyl, 1-naphthylmethyl, 2-naphthylmethyl or pyrid-3-ylmethyl or two R.sup.1 substituents on the same nitrogen atom may together form optionally substituted alkylene, and salts thereof, processes for their preparation and compositions containing them are described.

Thioformamide derivatives

Therapeutically useful thioformamide derivatives of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R represents alkyl, Het represents pyrid-3-yl, isoquinolin-4-yl, tetrahydroquinolin-3-yl, quinolin-3-yl, pyridazin-4-yl, pyrimid-5-yl, thiazol-5-yl, thieno[2,3-b]-pyridin-5-yl, pyrazin-2-yl, indol-3-yl and thieno[3,2-b]-pyridin-6-yl, Y represents ethylene, methylene or a valency bond, and X represents carbonyl, hydroxymethylene, &gt;C.dbd.NOR.sup.1, &gt;C.dbd.NN(R.sup.1).sub.2 or &gt;C.dbd.NN(R.sup.1)CON(R.sup.1).sub.2 in which R.sup.1 represents hydrogen or optionally substituted alkyl, benzyl, phenethyl, 1-naphthylmethyl, 2-naphthylmethyl or pyrid-3-ylmethyl, or two R.sup.1 substituents on the same nitrogen atom may together form an optionally substituted alkylene radical chain and salts thereof, processes for their preparation and compositions containing them are described.

Derivatives of thioformamide

This invention relates to thioformamide derivatives of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R represents alkyl, Ar represents optionally substituted phenyl, Y represents an ethylene or methylene radical or a valency bond, and n represents 0 or 1, bioprecursors thereof and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof which possess useful pharmacological properties, processes for their preparation and compositions containing them.

Benzamide derivatives of the general formula: ##STR1## wherein A represents a divalent straight- or branched-chain alkylene group containing from 1 to 6 carbon atoms and R.sup.1 represents a halogen atom or a hydroxy, mercapto, amino, nitro, cyano, carboxy or carbamoyl group or an alkyl, fluorine-substituted alkyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, alkylsulphinyl, alkylsulphonyl, alkoxycarbonyl, alkylamino, dialkylamino, alkylcarbamoyl, dialkylcarbamoyl, alkanoyl, alkanoyloxy or alkanoylamino group and m represents zero or the integer 1, 2 or 3, R.sup.2 represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group, R.sup.3 represents a halogen atom or a hydroxy, amino, nitro, cyano, carboxy or carbamoyl group or an alkyl, fluorine-substituted alkyl, alkoxy, alkoxycarbonyl, dialkylamino, alkylcarbamoyl or alkanoylamino group and n represents zero or the integer 1 or 2, R.sup.4 represents and alkyl radical and p represents zero or the integer 1 or 2, or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, possess useful pharmacological properties.
