Abstract

STRUCTURAL parameters of different groups of non-steroidal ariti-inflammatory agents (pyrazolidinediones1, fenamates2, indoles3, oxazoles4 and thiazoles4) have certain similarities which include the presence of a relatively non-basic nitrogen, an acidic (carboxylic or enolic) function and an aromatic moiety. We report here the synthesis and biological properties of a new and potent series of anti-inflammatory agents which manifest similar structural features.
