Lewis acid free high speed synthesis of nimesulide-based novel N-substituted cyclic imides
摘要:
The first synthesis of nimesulide-based novel cyclic imides has been accomplished via the reaction of an amine prepared from nimesulide with appropriate anhydrides in the presence of sodium acetate. Using this process a variety of N-substituted cyclic imides was prepared in good yields in glacial acetic acid. Some of the compounds synthesized showed anti-inflammatory activities when tested in vivo.
