Abstract: Novel tricyclic aminoalkyl derivatives are disclosed which are characterized by valuable pharmacological activities and namely by cardiac and circulatory activities. The tricyclic aminoalkyl derivatives are compounds of the formula: ##STR1## wherein X is an oxygen or a sulfur atom, a saturated or unsaturated, straight chain or branched alkylene group containing up to 3 carbon atoms, an oxymethylene, thiamethylene or thiaethylene group or a valency bond, R.sub.1 is hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, alkoxy or trifluoromethyl, R.sub.2 is hydrogen or hydroxyl, R.sub.3 is hydrogen or together with R.sub.2 represents a further valency bond, R.sub.4 and R.sub.
