Abstract: Tip part (3) of a dosage vessel (1) for the dosage of liquid dropwise through a downwardly directed tip part. The tip part is provided with a capillary exhaust duct (6) as well as with a neck duct (8) wider than the exhaust duct. The liquid having access through the neck duct out of the vessel (1) into the exhaust duct (6). The neck duct (8) contains an oblong member (5) parallel to the neck duct.

Abstract: The present invention concerns new (R)-, (S)- and (R,S)-1-(4'-alkylamido)-2'-{1-[N-(alkyl)imino]ethyl}phenoxy-3-alklyamino-2 -propanols having the general formula ##STR1## wherein R means a straight or branched C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl group, especially the n-propyl group, and R.sub.1 means hydrogen or a straight or branched C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl group, especially the isopropyl group, which compounds are useful intermediates when preparing the pharmacologically active (R)-, (S)- and (R,S)-1-(4'-alkylamido-2'-acetyl)phenoxy-3-alkylamino-2-propanols of the formula ##STR2## wherein R and R.sub.1 have the meaning given above.
