Seven 2, 3-diphenyl-5-methoxyindole derivatives were synthesized. The effect of structural variation of these molecules on biological activities was examined. None of the tested compounds was found to be toxic up 5 gm/Kg body weight. Four compounds demonstrated smooth muscle relaxant effects and one showed a persistent hypotensive effect. Only the parent compound, 2, 3-diphenyl-5-methoxyindole, showed a significant analgesic effect.

2, 3-Diphenyl-6-formyl-5-methoxyindole reacts with ethyl cyano acetate to yield the arylidene derivative which forms with urea and thiourea the corresponding pyrimidine derivatives. The arylidene derivatives react with hydrazines and with active methylenes to form the respective pyrazole derivatives and the $\alpha, \;\beta$-disubstituted acrylonitriles. Seven new compounds were tested for their effects on the arterial blood pressure of rats and analgesic activity.
