Abstract

Novel indole carboxamides of the formula ##STR1## wherein R and R.sub.1 are individually selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl of 3 to 7 carbon atoms, cycloalkylalkyl of 4 to 7 carbon atoms and aralkyl of 7 to 12 carbon atoms optionally substituted with 1 to 3 members of the group consisting of halogen, methyl, ethyl, methoxy, ethoxy, --CF.sub.3, CH.sub.3 S--, --NH.sub.2 and --NO.sub.2 or R.sub.1 and R taken together with the nitrogen atom form an optionally unsaturated heterocycle optionally containing a member of the group consisting of --O--, --S-- and ##STR2## R' is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, phenyl, naphthyl, aralkyl of 7 to 12 carbon atoms and substituted phenyl, R.sub.3 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, alkyl of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, alkoxy of 1 to 3 carbon atoms, chlorine, bromine, iodine, --NO.sub.2, --NH.sub.2, acylamide of an aliphatic carboxylic acid of 2 to 5 carbon atoms and mono and dialkylamino with alkyl of 1 to 5 carbon atoms, a and b form .dbd.O and c is hydrogen or a and c form a carbon-carbon bond and b is hydrogen, A is selected from the group consisting of --(CH.sub.2).sub.n -- and ##STR3## n is an integer from 2 to 5, m is an integer from 1 to 3, B is ##STR4## R.sub.2 is selected from the group consisting of hydrogen and alkyl of 1 to 5 carbon atoms and their non-toxic, pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts having remarkable anti-arrhytmic properties.
