X is O or S absent;

Y is an ethylene group optionally substituted by a methyl group;

"alk" is an ethylene, trimethylene or tetramethylene group, "alk" being optionally substituted by a methyl group;

R is C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl; and

R.sup.2 is H, halo, CF.sub.3 or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl.

2. A compound of the formula: ##STR74## or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof; where

R and R.sup.1 are each independently C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl;

X is O or S absent;

Y is an ethylene group optionally substituted by a methyl group;

"alk" is an ethylene, trimethylene and tetramethylene group, "alk" being optionally substituted by a methyl group;

R.sup.2 is H, halo, CF or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl; and

R.sup.3 is a group of the formula --NHSO.sub.2 (C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl) or --CONR.sup.4 R.sup.5 where R.sup.4 and R.sup.5 are each independently H or C.sub.1 -C.sub.4 alkyl or together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached represent a 1-pyrrolidinyl, piperidino, morpholino or N-methylpiperazin-1-yl group.
