Abstract
Compounds having 2-methoxynaphthalene as their parent nucleus were synthesized and evaluated for antiinflammatory effect according to the carrageenin paw edema method in rats. The synthetic routes for the preparation of isomeric 1,2- and 2,6-disubstituted derivatives are described. Replacement of the alpha-methylacetic moiety in naproxen by 4-hydroxybutyric acid side chain did not cause loss of activity.
2-methoxynaphthalene derivatives show potential as anti-inflammatory agents, with 1,2- and 2,6-disubstituted derivatives showing no loss of activity when replacing the alpha-methylacetic moiety in naproxen with 4-hydroxybutyric acid side chain.
