     1. α-Blocking activities 
     Male Wistar rats weighing 250˜300 g were sacrificed and the thoracic aorta was isolated. Aortic strips were cut into helical strips about 2˜3 mm in width and 10˜12 mm in length. Each strip was mounted isometrically under 1.0 g of tension in a 20-ml tissue bath (37° C.) containing Krebs Ringer solution and buffled with mixed gas of 95% O 2  and 5% CO 2 . 
     Developed tension changes were recorded using an isometric transducer (Toyo Baldwin, T7-30-240) coupled to a polygraph recorder (Nihon Kohden, RM-600). 
     The tissue was exposed to the compounds for 5 min before challenge with norepinephrine. The α-blocking activity was assessed by comparing with PA 2  (the value which was calculated according to the method of Van Rossum*. The result is shown in table 1.

Especially 3-substituted amino-2-hydroxypropyl Compounds were prepared by reaction of 2-(4-Oxopiperidine-1-yl)-4-amino-substd.-quinazolines such as compound 1 with O-substd.-hydroxylamine. The O-substd.-hydroxylamines were obtained by reaction of benzophenone oxime with epibromohydrin and reacted with suitable amines. The resulting O-(2,3-epoxypropyl)-benzophenone derivatines were hydrolyzed to O-substd. hydroxyamine in the same manner as the method of Example 12. Objective compounds are shown in table 4.
