Abstract: A 3-benzazocine compound of the formula: ##SPC1##Wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5 and R.sub.8 are each hydrogen or lower alkyl, R.sub.2 is hydrogen, lower alkyl or phenyl and R.sub.6 and R.sub.7 are each lower alkyl, and its pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts, which are useful as analgesics and can be produced by reacting a tetrahydropyridine compound of the formula: ##SPC2##Wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5, R.sub.6, R.sub.7 and R.sub.8 are each as defined above or its salt with a Lewis acid.

Abstract: Quinazoline derivatives represented by the formula ##SPC1##Wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are individually a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a lower alkyl group, a lower alkoxy group, a nitro group, a lower alkylthio group or a lower alkylsulfonyl group; R.sub.3 is a hydrogen atom, a lower alkyl group, a lower cycloalkyl group, a napthyl group, a furyl group or a thienyl group; R.sub.4 is a lower cycloalkyl group or a trihalomethyl group; and n is an integer of 1 to 3, are novel compounds and have excellent pharmacological properties, particularly as anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects with low toxicity. They can be prepared by treating with ammonia a trihaloacetamidophenylketone derivative of the formula, ##SPC2##Wherein R.sub.1, R.sub.2 and R.sub.3 are as defined above; R is a hydrogen atom or a group of the formula --C.sub.n H.sub.2n --R.sub.4 ; and X is a halogen atom.

Abstract: Compositions and methods for inducing polyphagia in immature meat producing animals comprise administering orally or by injection an effective but nontoxic subpharmacodynamic quantity of a 1,4-benzodiazepinone active ingredient whose structure is characterized by an 1-alkyl-sulfonylalkyl moiety. Preferred active ingredients are 1-(ethylsulfonylethyl)-5-(o-halophenyl)-7-halo-1,3-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzodia zepin-2-ones.
