Furo(3,2-b)indole derivatives. I. Synthesis and analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities of 4,6-disubstituted-furo(3,2-b)indole-2-carboxamide derivatives.
Furo(3,2-b)indole derivatives. I. Synthesis and analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities of 4,6-disubstituted-furo(3,2-b)indole-2-carboxamide derivatives.
The novel furoindole compounds of the formula ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is hydrogen or lower alkyl having 1-3 carbon atoms, and R.sup.2 is hydrogen, halogen, trifluoromethyl, methoxy or methyl, are useful as analgesic and anti-inflammatory agents.
Furo(3,2-b)indole derivatives. I. Synthesis and analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities of 4,6-disubstituted-furo(3,2-b)indole-2-carboxamide derivatives.
N-(3-Piperidinopropyl)-4, 6-disubstituted-furo [3, 2-b] indole-2-carboxamide derivatives were prepared and examined for analgesic and anti-inflammatory activities using the acetic acid writhing method in mice and the carrageenin edema method in rats. Some of the compounds were found to have potent and anti-inflammatory activities in the animal model.
