Abstract
1.
1. The neuro- and cardiovascular effects of RS-51324 (DL-4(5)-(2,6dichlorophenyl)-2-methoxycarbonyl-amino-4,5 dihydroimidazole) have been explored in animals.
2.
2. Antidepressant activities of RS-51324 were demonstrated by reserpine antagonism and L-DOPA potentiation.
3.
3. Norepinephrine uptake was inhibited but MAO activity was not inhibited by RS-51324.
4.
4. Peripheral vascular responses to serotonin were potentiated although central effects were not demonstrated.
5.
5. Cardiovascular experiments indicated that RS-51324 lacked anticholinergic effects but had mild antihistaminic activity.
