R.sub.1 is substituted phenyl; or optionally substituted naphthyl or a five- or six-membered heterocyclic group which can be condensed with a phenyl ring to form a bicyclic radical. R.sub.2 is hydrogen, alkyl, alkenyl or cycloalkenyl; R.sub.3 is alkyl, alkenyl or hydroxyalkyl or with R.sub.2 together forms cycloakylene; or R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 together form alkylidene or cycloalkylidene. R.sub.4 is hydrogen or lower alkanoyl. X is a valency bond, alkylene, vinylene, imino or carbonylamino. T stands for two hydrogen atoms. When X is a valency bond, R.sub.1 can also be hydrogen, hydrocarbyl which may also contain oxygen, amino, sulfur, carbonyl and sulfonyl groups. When X is imino or carbonylamino or when R.sub.1 is a bicyclic radical, T can also be oxygen. The compounds also include the tautomers and physiologically acceptable salts with inorganic and organic acids.
