Abstract: Compounds corresponding to the general formula (I): ##STR1## in which X represents a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkoxy group or a cyclopropylmethoxy group and Y represents a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group or a methoxy group and salts and bases thereof. The compounds may exists in the form of a pure enantiomer or as a mixture of enantiomers. Additionally, the compounds of formula (I) are useful for the treatment of diseases associated with serotoninergic receptors, particularly anxiety and/or depression.

Abstract: Compounds of formula: ##STR1## in which X represents a hydrogen atom, a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkoxy group or a cyclopropylmethoxy group and Y represents a hydrogen atom or a methoxy group, are useful in the therapy of conditions.

Abstract: The invention discloses compounds formula (I) ##STR1## in which n represents the number 1 or 2, X represents a hydrogen atom or indicates that the phenyl ring to which it is attached is substituted by one or two substituents independently chosen from halogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkoxy and hydroxyl, and R represents a hydrogen atom, a group of formula --CH.sub.2 --CO.sub.2 --R.sub.1 (in which R.sub.1 represents a hydrogen atom or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl group) or a group of formula --CH.sub.2 --CO--NR.sub.2 R.sub.3 (in which each of R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 is independently a hydrogen atom or a C.sub.1 -C.sub.3 alkyl group), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, processes for their preparation and their use in the treatment of disorders of GABAergic transmission.

Abstract: [(1-Arylpyrrolidin-2-yl)methyl]piperazine compounds corresponding to the formula ##STR1## in which Z denotes a group of formula N-R.sub.1 in which R.sub.1 is either a hydrogen atom or a C.sub.1-3 alkyl group or a group of formula Ar--C.sub.n H.sub.2n in which n denotes 0, 1 or 2 and Ar denotes a phenyl group optionally substituted by one or more halogen atoms and/or C.sub.1-3 alkyl or C.sub.1-3 alkoxy radicals, or a group of formula COR.sub.2 in which R.sub.2 denotes the CH.sub.3, C.sub.6 H.sub.5, CH.sub.2 C.sub.6 H.sub.5 or OC.sub.2 H.sub.5 group and their salts of addition to pharmaceutically acceptable acids. The compounds are useful for the treatment of neurological disorders.
