- ##STR14## wherein R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 independently represent hydrogen, alkyl or 1-6 carbon atoms or cycloalkyl of 3-6 carbon atoms, or R.sup.1 and R.sup.2 taken together represent alkylene of 3-6 carbon atoms;
- R.sup.3 represents hydrogen, alkyl of 1-6 carbon atoms or cycloalkyl of 3-6 carbon atoms;
- R.sup.4 represents alkyl of 1-6 carbon atoms or cycloalkyl of 3-6 carbon atoms;
- or R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 taken together represent alkylene of 2-5 carbon atoms;
- X.sup.1, X.sup.2 and X.sup.3 independently represent hydrogen, halogen, alkyl of 1-6 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl of 3-6 carbon atoms, alkoxy of 1-6 carbon atoms, trifluoromethyl, cyano, nitro, dialkylamino of 2-12 carbon atoms, sulfamoyl or a five-membered or six-membered heterocyclic group containing 1-3 nitrogen atoms as the heteroatom, which group is unsubstituted or is substituted by alkyl of 1-6 carbon atoms, alkoxy of 1-6 carbon atoms, halogen, cyano, phenyl, alkylthio of 1-6 carbon atoms or haloalkyl of -6 carbon atoms, except for the case where R.sup.1 represents hydrogen, R.sup.2 represents n-propyl, R.sup.3 represents hydrogen, R.sup.4 represents methyl and X.sup.1, X.sup.2 and X.sup.3 represent hydrogen;
- and the case where R.sup.1 represents hydrogen, R.sup.2, R.sup.3 and R.sup.4 represent methyl, and X.sup.1, X.sup.2 and X.sup.3 represent hydrogen, or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof.
