- Q.sub.2 is selected from the group consisting of H and (C.sub.1 -C.sub.4)alkyl;
- Q.sub.3 is selected from the group consisting of H and (C.sub.1 -C.sub.4)alkyl or Q.sub.1 and Q.sub.3 are attached to form a heterocycle and together represent (C.sub.2 -C.sub.3)alkylene, whereas Z.sub.1 represents a bond, in the form of pure enantiomer or mixture thereof in any proportions as well as its salt with acid.
- 2. A compound according to claim 1 of formula I, in which NR.sub.3 R.sub.4 represents pyrrolidinyl.
- 3. A compound according to claim 1 of formula I, in which Z.sub.1 represents (C.sub.4 -C.sub.9)alkylene and Q.sub.1 contains a nitrogen atom attached to Z.sub.1.
