Abstract
Some new derivatives of 3-chloro-1-(4a,10b-diazaphenanthrene-2-yl)-4-phenyl azetidin-2-one were synthesized through the reaction of N-{4-[phenyldiazenyl] phenyl}-N-[phenyl methylene] amine with 4-[phenyldiazenyl] aniline. The resulting 3-chloro-4-phenyl-1-{4-[phenyldiazenyl] phenyl} azetidin-2-one intermediate in benzene was irradiated in a Pyrex vessel with 350 nm UV light in a photochemical reactor to give the desired derivatives (4a–j). Structures of the new compounds were verified on the basis of spectral and elemental methods of analyses. Nine of the prepared compounds were tested for their anti-inflammatory effects; most of these compounds showed potent and significant results compared with indomethacin.
