Claims
- 1. A carbostyril compound or salt thereof of the formula ##STR169## wherein B is a C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkylene group; R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 are each the same or different and are each a C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl group or a phenyl-C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl group which may have from 1 to 2 C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkoxy groups as substituents on the phenyl ring; and the carbon-carbon bond between the 3- and 4-positions in the carbostyril skeleton is a single or double bond.
- 2. The carbostyril compound or salt thereof of claim 1, wherein R.sup.1 is a C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl group and R.sup.2 is a phenyl-C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkyl group which may have from 1 to 2 C.sub.1 -C.sub.6 alkoxy groups as substituents on the phenyl ring.
- 3. The carbostyril compound or salt thereof of claim 2, wherein the carbon-carbon bond between 3- and 4-positions in the carbostyril skeleton is a double bond.
- 4. The carbostyril compound or salt thereof of claim 2, wherein the carbon-carbon bond between 3- and 4-positions in the carbostyril skeleton is a single bond.
- 5. 6-{1-Hydroxyimino-2[N-methyl-N-(4-methoxybenzyl)amino]butyl}carbostyril.
- 6. A cardiotonic composition comprising an effective amount of a carbostyril compound or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof of claim 1 as the active ingredient and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier.
