[(Cycloalkylmethyl)phenyl]acetic acid derivatives and relatedcompounds were synthesized to test their antiinflammatory and analgesic activities. Some of the compounds in this series were found to have good activity in the carrageenan edema test. Among them, sodium 2-[4-[(2-oxocyclopentyl)methyl] phenyl]propionate dihydrate (15) and 2-[4-[(2-oxocyclohexylidene)methyl]phenyl]propionic acid (13b) showed potent analgesic

4-(2-Oxo- or hydroxyimino-cycloalkan-1-ylmethyl)phenylacetic acid derivative and nontoxic pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof are useful as an anti-inflammatory agent. The above 2-oxo-compound may be prepared by (a) hydrolyzing and decarboxylating 4-(1-alkoxycarbonyl-2-oxocycloalkan-1-ylmethyl)phenylacetic acid ester derivative or (b) reacting p-halomethylphenylacetic acid ester derivative with an enamine of cycloalkanone and hydrolyzing the resulting product. And further, the above 2-hydroxyimino-compound may be prepared by (c) reacting 4-(2-oxocycloalkan-1-ylmethyl)phenylacetic acid derivative (the product of process (a) or (b)) with hydroxylamine or (d) reacting a dilithium salt of cycloalkanone oxime with p-halomethyl- or p-sulfonyloxymethyl-phenylacetic acid ester derivative and hydrolyzing the resulting product.
