Abstract

Abstract Novel 3-quinoline-carboxamides of the formula ##STR1## wherein R is in 6 or 7-position and is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, halogen, alkyl of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl of 3 to 6 carbon atoms, alkoxy of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, --CF 3 , --SCF 3 and CH 3 S--, R 1 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, phenyl and benzyl, R 2 is --NHR 4 , R 4 is selected from the group consisting of alkyl of 2 to 6 carbon atoms, substituted aryl of 6 to 10 carbon atoms and substituted heterocycle of an aromatic character of 3 to 5 carbon atoms with the proviso that when R 4 is a mono substituted aryl or heterocycle, the substituent is different from R of the quinoline when it is a halogen and R 3 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and --OH and their non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts having remarkable anxiolytic properties capable of lessening emotional reactions and diminishing states of psychic tension and their preparation.
