Claim 2
Independent Claim 326 words
A method of inhibiting bone loss comprising administering to a human in need of treatment an effective amount of a compound having the formula ##STR11## wherein R is hydrogen; hydroxy; C 1 -C 6 alkoxy; a group of the formula --O--C(O)--R a , wherein R a is hydrogen, C 1 -C 6 alkyl optionally substituted with amino, halo, carbonyl, C 1 -C 6 alkoxycarbonyl, C 1 -C 7 alkanoyloxy, carbamoyl and/or aryl; or R a is C 1 -C 6 alkenyl optionally substituted with aryl; or R a is a C 3 -C 7 cycloalkyl; or R a is aryl optionally substituted with hydroxy, C 1 -C 6 alkyl, C 1 -C 6 alkoxy, and/or halo; or R a is --O--aryl, said aryl optionally substituted with hydroxy C 1 -C 6 alkyl, C 1 -C 6 alkoxy, and/or halo, or R is a group of the formula --O--SO 2 --R b wherein R b may be C 1 -C 6 alkyl or aryl optionally substituted with C 1 -C6 alkyl; or R is carbamoyloxy wherein the nitrogen may be substituted once or twice with C 1 -C6 alkyl; or R is a group of the formula --O--C(O)R c --O--(C 1 -C 6 alkyl) wherein R c is a bond or C 1 -C 6 alkanediyl; R 1 is halo, C 1 -C 6 alkyl, C 1 -C 7 alkyl substituted with C 1 -C 6 alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C 3 -C 7 cycloalkyl, or substituted or unsubstituted C 3 -C 7 cycloalkenyl; R 2 is O or CH 2 ; R 3 is CH 2 or (CH 2 ) 2 ; R 4 is ##STR12## CH 2 , or a bond; and R 5 is amino, nitrilo optionally substituted once or twice with C 1 -C 6 alkyl; or an N-heterocyclic ring which optionally has another hetero atom selected from N, O or S in said ring; or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt or solvate thereof.
