Abstract: The invention relates to a series of new compounds, salts thereof and to methods for the preparation of the compounds which have the general formula ##STR1## in which R.sub.1 stands for an unsubstituted or substituted phenoxy, phenylthio, benzyl, phenylsulfinyl, or anilino radical;R.sub.2 stands for a -YR.sub.2 ' radical, in which Y represents -O-, -S-, or -NH-, and R.sub.2 ' represents C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 -alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.6 -alkenyl or -alkynyl; or methyl or ethyl substituted with phenyl, furyl, thienyl or pyridyl;R.sub.3 and R.sub.4 which can be the same or different, and unsubstituted or substituted, stand for hydrogen or for a straight or branched C.sub.1 -C.sub.8 -alkyl, C.sub.2 -C.sub.8 -alkenyl or -alkynyl radical, a C.sub.5 -C.sub.7 -cycloalkyl, a phenyl, or a 5-, 6- or 7-membered heterocyclic ring system containing not more than two hetero atoms selected from the group consisting of oxygen, sulphur and nitrogen, or for a C.sub.1 -C.sub.

Abstract: Compounds of the general formulae ##STR1## in which R.sub.1 represents a straight or branched, optionally substituted alkyl, alkenyl or alkynyl radical; R.sub.2 stands for an optionally substituted phenyl radical; Y stands for oxygen, sulphur or a methylene radical; X stands for O or H.sub.2 ; their salts and esters and methods for their preparation.The compounds of the invention possess an outstanding diuretic and saluretic activity with a very low excretion of potassium ions and a low toxicity.
