Synthesis and antiinflammatory properties of new carboxylic acids containing the 2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxin subunit are described. The 2-(2,3-dihydro-1, 4-benzodioxin-6-yl)acetic acid was of comparable potency to Ibuprofen, in carrageenan induced rat paw edema assay.
M Khouili et al.
Farmaco (Societa chimica italiana : 1989), 51(3), 185-188 (1996-03-01)
The four stereoisomers of compound 1 were synthesized from 2,3-dihydro-1, 4-benzodioxin and evaluated as alpha- and beta-adrenergic antagonists. Enantiomer 1-b [2R, 2'S] (Figure 1) is the best beta 1-blocking agent. Furthermore all compounds showed a alpha-blocking activity.
