Abstract: The invention relates to a group of new 8,9-annelated-.beta.-carbolines and 8,9-annelated-3,4-dihydro-.beta.-carbolines having interesting fibrinolytic properties. In particular the compounds can be used as orally active fibrinolytics.The compounds have the general formulae 1 and 2 ##STR1## wherein R.sub.2 +R.sub.3 together with the carbon atom and the nitrogen atom to which they are bound and the intermediate carbon atom constitute a heterocyclic group consisting of 5-10 ring atoms.

Abstract: The invention relates to a group of new annelated indolo [3,2-c] lactam derivatives of the formula ##STR1## having an antagonistic activity on 5-HT receptors. The compounds can be used for the treatment of symptoms which are caused by excessive stimulation of said receptors in the gastrointestinal system, the central nervous system, the cardiovascular system, the respiratory system, and for alleviating or preventing withdrawal symptoms which are induced by abuse of drugs.

Abstract: 1,7-Annelated esters and amides of indolecarboxylic acids having formula 2, ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is halogen;n has a value of 0-2;Z together with the carbon atom, the nitrogen atom and the intermediate carbon atom, forms a heterocyclic group consisting of 6 ring atoms in which, besides the nitrogen atom already present, a second hetero atom of S is present, which ring may be annelated with a benzene ring;R.sub.3 is hydrogen, halogen, alkyl, alkoxy or alkylthio having 1-4 carbon atoms; andR.sub.2 is a group --CO--Y--R.sub.7 wherein Y is an oxygen atom, or a group --NR.sub.6, wherein R.sub.6 is hydrogen or alkyl having 1-3 C-atoms, and R.sub.7 represents a group of the formula ##STR2## wherein p has the value 1 or 2, q has the value 2 or 3, R.sub.8 is hydrogen or alkyl or hydroxyalkyl having 1 or 2 C-atoms, r is 0 or 1, and R.sub.10 is absent.

Abstract: The invention relates to a group of new 3-N substituted carbamoyl-indole derivatives of the formula ##STR1## having an antagonistic activity on 5-HT receptors. The compounds can be used for the treatment of symptoms which are caused by excessive stimulation of said receptors in the gastrointestinal system, the central nervous system, the cardiovascular system, the respiratory system, and for alleviating or preventing withdrawal symptoms which are induced by abuse of drugs.

Abstract: Annelated indoleketones with an imidazolylalkyl substituent having the formula (2): ##STR1## wherein R.sub.1 is alkyl or alkoxy having 1-4 C-atoms, hydroxy, halogen, trifluoromethyl, a group R.sub.5 R.sub.6 N or R.sub.5 R.sub.6 -N-CO, wherein R.sub.5 and R.sub.6 are hydrogen or alkyl having 1-4 C-atoms or wherein R.sub.5 R.sub.6 N is a saturated 5-6 ring, and n has the value 0, 1 or 2;A is a group of formula 3, 4 or 5 ##STR2## wherein one of the groups R.sub.2, R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 is hydrogen, alkyl having 1-4 C-atoms, cycloalkyl having 3-6 C-atoms or alkenyl having 2-4 C-atoms and the two other groups, independently of each other, are hydrogen or alkyl having 1-4 C-atoms,p has the value 0-3, and q has the value 2-5. These compounds (and pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof) have good antagonistic activity of "neuronal" 5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT)receptors, and the lower toxicity.

Abstract: The invention relates to new 1,7-annelated esters and amides of indolecarboxylic acids having general formula 2, ##STR1## wherein the symbols have the meanings given in the specification. The compounds and their salts are very strong and selective antagonists of "neuronal" 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptors, and can be used for the treatment of symptoms which are caused by over-stimulation of these receptors.

Abstract: The invention relates to a group of new substituted 1,7-annelated 1H-indazole derivatives being strong and selective antagonists of "neuronal" 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) receptors.
