The present invention provides compounds of the formula STR1 or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof wherein R1 is selected from hydrogen, halo, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, or thioalkoxy; and R2 is lower alkoxy; or R1 and R2 together form a methylenedioxy or ethylenedioxy ring; R3 and R4 are independently selected from hydrogen, hydroxy, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, lower alkylthio, (lower alkyl)amino, (lower alkylsulfonyl)amino, and halo; and R7 is selected from the group consisting of 2- or 3-thienyl, 2- or 3-furyl, and STR2 where R13 and R14 are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, hydroxy, halogen, amino, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, lower alkylthio, methylenedioxy, or ethylenedioxy. The compounds of the present invention selectively inhibit α2 -adrenergic receptors as well as inhibit the uptake of biogenic amines and are thus useful in the treatment of certain cardiovascular and psychiatric disorders.
