Abstract: Compounds are disclosed of the formula (I) ##STR1## wherein A.sup.1 is a valence bond or a C.sub.1 to C.sub.5 straight or branched chain alkylene group unsubstituted or substituted by hydroxy or aminocarbonyl;B is a valence bond or a double bond;R.sup.3 is hydrogen or C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 alkyl;R.sup.2 is a phenyl or phenoxy group unsubstituted or substituted by one or two C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 alkyl groups, C.sub.1 to C.sub.4 alkoxy groups, or halo substituents; or R.sup.2 is an amino group, a diphenylmethyl group, or an R.sup.4 --NH--CO-- group in whichR.sup.4 is 2,6-dimethyl-phenyl; or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof. The compounds possess anti-arrhythmic activity and exert little or no hypotensive side effects.

Abstract: The invention relates to new anti-arrhythmic compounds of the formula (I) ##STR1## wherein A is C1 to C5 alkylene which can be substituted by hydroxyl;X is a single or a double bond; andQ is a 6-membered carbocyclic moiety fused to each of the adjacent carbonyl carbon atoms, and which is either fully hydrogenated, partially hydrogenated, or aromatic, or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof.
