Synthesis and some biological properties of substituted xanthone-2-carboxylic acids. 1983

M Eckstein, and H Marona, and J Mazur

Xanthone-2-carboxylic acids 4a-4k were synthesized as potential antiphlogistic compounds, and compounds 4a-4c and 4f-4i were tested for anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. In the carrageenin paw edema the most potent of the series acid 4b displayed the activity which was approx one third of that of ketoprofen.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D002351 Carrageenan A water-soluble extractive mixture of sulfated polysaccharides from RED ALGAE. Chief sources are the Irish moss CHONDRUS CRISPUS (Carrageen), and Gigartina stellata. It is used as a stabilizer, for suspending COCOA in chocolate manufacture, and to clarify BEVERAGES.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D000894 Anti-Inflammatory Agents, Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory agents that are non-steroidal in nature. In addition to anti-inflammatory actions, they have analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions. They act by blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, which converts arachidonic acid to cyclic endoperoxides, precursors of prostaglandins. Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis accounts for their analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions; other mechanisms may contribute to their anti-inflammatory effects.
