Azaheterocyclylmethyl-chromans of the formula: ##STR1## in which E represents an azaheterocyclyl group selected from the group consisting of: ##STR2## wherein R.sup.6 represents hydrogen, hydroxyl, halogen or phenyl; and

Azaheterocyclymethyl-chromans

A method of treating psychosis by administering to a patient an azaheterocyclylmethyl-chroman of the formula: ##STR1## in which E represents an azaheterocyclyl group selected from the group consisting of: ##STR2## wherein R.sup.6 represents hydrogen, hydroxyl, halogen or phenyl; and represents an integer 0-8; and the other substituents are as defined herein; or an optically isomeric form thereof or a salt thereof.

Method of treating psychosis using azaheterocyclylmethyl

ee Azaheterocyclylmethyl-chromans are prepared by reaction of corresponding methylchromans with corresponding azaheterocyclic compounds, optionally with subsequent variation of the substituents. The azaheterocyclyl-methyl-chromans can be used as active compounds in medicaments, in particular for the treatment of diseases of the central nervous system.

Azaheterocyclylmethyl-chromans

Aminomethyl-chromans are obtained by alkylation of correspondingly substituted amines or by reductive amination of correspondingly substituted aldehydes. The aminomethyl-chromans can be used as active compounds in medicaments, in particular for the treatment of diseases of the central nervous system.

2-aminomethyl-chromans

Azaheterocyclylmethyl-chromans are prepared by reaction of corresponding methylchromans with corresponding azaheterocyclic compounds, optionally with subsequent variation of the substituents. The azaheterocyclylmethyl-chromans can be used as active compounds in medicaments, in particular for the treatment of diseases of the central nervous system.

Azaheterocyclylmethyl-chromans for treating axiety

Piperidylmethyl-substituted chroman derivatives can be prepared by first reducing corresponding chromancarboxylic acid derivatives, if appropriate with prior activation, with the cyclic amines and then reducing the carbonyl group, or by reacting chromanmethyl compounds directly with the cyclic amines. The substituted piperidylmethyl-substituted chroman derivatives can be employed as active compounds in medicaments, in particular for the treatment of diseases of the central-nervous system.

Piperidylmethyl-substituted chroman derivatives

Aminomethyl-substituted 2,3-dihydropyrano[2,3-b]pyridines can be prepared by alkylation of corresponding amines. The novel aminomethyl-substituted dihydropyrano[2,3-b]pyridines can be used as active ingredients in medicaments, in particular for the treatment of disorders of the central nervous system.
