2,3(1H,4H)-quinoxalinediones of the formula I ##STR1## where R.sup.1 is hydrogen, an aliphatic radical which has up to 12 carbons and can be substituted by one of the following: phenyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl or --CO--R.sup.3, --CO--O--R.sup.3 or --CO--NH--R.sup.3, where R.sup.3 is hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, phenyl, benzyl or 1-phenylethyl, a cycloaliphatic radical with up to 12 carbons or phenyl, where the cyclic groups in R.sup.1 can have up to three of the following substituents: C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -haloalkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkoxy, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -haloalkoxy, halogen, nitro, cyano, --CO--O--R.sup.3 and --CO--NH--R.sup.3 ; R.sup.2 is 1-pyrrolyl which can have up to two of the following substituents: C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, phenyl, phenylsulfonyl, nitro, cyano and --CO--O--R.sup.3, --CO--NH--R.sup.3, --CH.sub.2 --O--R.sup.3, --O--R.sup.3 and --CH.dbd.NO--R.sup.3 R radicals are identical or different and are the following: C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkoxy, trifluoromethyl, trichloromethyl, trifluoromethoxy, trichloromethoxy, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, nitro, cyano and --CO--O--R.sup.3 and --CO--NH--R.sup.3 as well as a fused-on benzene ring; n is 0-3, and 2,3(1H,4H)-quinoxalinediones I' ##STR2## where R.sup.1 has the stated meanings, are suitable as drugs in the treatment of neurodegenerative disorders and neurotoxic disturbances of the central nervous system.
A method for treating a host in need of spasmolytic or anxiolytic treatment which comprises administering to said host a therapeutically effective amount of a 2,3(1H,4H)-quinoxalinedione of the formula I ##STR15## or its tautomer or enantiomer or its physiologically tolerated salt, where R.sup.1 is hydrogen, a cycloaliphatic radical having up to 8 carbons, phenyl, an alkyl radical having up to 12 carbons and which can carry one or two identical or different substituents selected from the group consisting of phenyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, --CO--R.sup.3, --CO--OR.sup.3, --CO--NH--R.sup.3, --OR.sup.3, --NR.sup.7 R.sup.8, ##STR16## .dbd.N--OR.sup.3, --CN, where R.sup.3 and R.sup.7 are each, independently of one another, hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, phenyl, benzyl, 1-phenylethyl or 2-phenylethyl, and where the cycloaliphatic radical having up to 8 carbon atoms and aromatic rings present in R.sup.1 can carry up to three substituents selected from the group consisting of C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -haloalkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkoxy, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -haloalkoxy, halogen, nitro, cyano, --CO--OR.sup.9, --CO--NH--R.sup.9, --OH, ##STR17## .dbd.N--OR.sup.9, .dbd.O;
A method for treating a host in need of antidepressant treatment which comprises administering to said host a therapeutically effective amount of a 2,3(1H,4H)-quinoxalinedione of the formula I ##STR20## or its tautomer or enantiomer or its physiologically tolerated salt, where R.sup.1 is hydrogen, a cycloaliphatic radical having up to 8 carbons, phenyl, an alkyl radical having up to 12 carbons and which can carry one or two identical or different substituents selected from the group consisting of phenyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl, --CO--R.sup.3, --CO--OR.sup.3, --CO--NH--R.sup.3, --OR.sup.3, --NR.sup.7 R.sup.8, ##STR21## .dbd.N--OR.sup.3, --CN, where R.sup.3 and R.sup.7 are each, independently of one another, hydrogen, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, phenyl, benzyl, 1-phenylethyl or 2-phenylethyl, and where the cycloaliphatic radical having up to 8 carbon atoms and aromatic rings present in R.sup.1 can carry up to three substituents selected from the group consisting of C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -haloalkyl, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -alkoxy, C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 -haloalkoxy, halogen, nitro, cyano, --CO--OR.sup.9, --CO--NH--R.sup.9, --OH, ##STR22## .dbd.N--OR.sup.9, .dbd.O;
