Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 78 words
A method of suppressing appetite in mammals comprising the enteral or parenteral administration of an appetite-suppressant effective amount of a compound of the formula ##STR3## or a tautomer thereof wherein R 1 is hydrogen, alkyl or alkoxy with up to 4 carbon atoms each, hydroxy, fluoro, chloro, bromo or trifluoromethyl; and R is phenyl, fluorophenyl, or pyridyl; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; or of a pharmaceutical composition comprising a said compound in combination with a pharmaceutical carrier.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 78 words
A method of suppressing appetite in mammals comprising the enteral or parenteral administration of an appetite-suppressant effective amount of a compound of the formula ##STR3## or a tautomer thereof wherein R 1 is hydrogen, alkyl or alkoxy with up to 4 carbon atoms each, hydroxy, fluoro, chloro, bromo or trifluoromethyl; and R is phenyl, fluorophenyl, or pyridyl; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; or of a pharmaceutical composition comprising a said compound in combination with a pharmaceutical carrier.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
A method according to claim 1 comprising the enteral administration of a pharmaceutical composition as defined in claim 1.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 30 words
A method according to claim 2 wherein R 1 is hydrogen; or R 1 is 7- or 8-(methyl, methoxy, chloro, fluoro or trifluoromethyl); and R is phenyl, fluorophenyl or 3-pyridyl.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 31 words
A method according to claim 2 wherein R 1 is hydrogen or 8-fluoro; and R is phenyl or p-fluorophenyl; and the pharmaceutically acceptable salt is the sodium, hydrochloride or mesylate salt.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 23 words
A method of suppressing appetite according to claim 2 wherein the appetite-suppressant compound is 2-phenylpyrazolo-[4,3-c]-quinolin-3(5H)-one; or the sodium, hydrochloride or mesylate salt thereof.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 23 words
A method of suppressing appetite according to claim 2 wherein the appetite-suppressant compound is 2-(p-fluorophenyl)-8-fluoropyrazolo[4,3-c]quinolin-3-(5H)-one or the sodium, hydrochloride or mesylate salt thereof.
