摘要:
New bicyclic compounds of the general formula (I), ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 each represent a C.sub.1-6 alkyl group, andR.sup.3 is an etherified hydroxy group of the formula --CR.sup.4, wherein R.sup.4 is benzyl group, benzhydryl group or a phenyl group bearing optionally a phenyl or a trihalomethyl substituent or one or more halogen substituent(s), orR.sup.3 is an esterified hydroxy group of the formula --OCO--R.sup.5, which representsa phenyl-(C.sub.1-5 alkyl)-carbonyloxy group,a cinnamoyloxy group having optionally a halogen or one or more C.sub.1-4 alkoxy substituent(s),a benzoyloxy group having optionally a C.sub.1-4 alkyl, phenyl or trihalomethyl substituent or one or more C.sub.1-4 alkoxy substituent(s), one or more halo substituent(s) and/or nitro substituent,a benzyloyloxy group,a xanthene-9-carbonyloxy group,an optionally substituted naphthoyloxy group, oran acyloxy group derived from a five- or six-membered heterocyclic carboxylic acid bearing optionally a halo substituent on the ring,are prepared by etherifying or esterifying a bicyclic compound of the general formula (II), ##STR2## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are as defined above. The new compounds according to the invention possess anti-arrhythmic effects and can be applied to advantage in the therapy of cardiac rhythm disorders.
