N-Trifluoroacetyl derivatives as pharmacological agents. II. Trifluoroacetanilides: synthesis and antiinflammatory activity.
The analogy with the anti-inflammatory trifluoromethane-sulfonanilides prompted us to the synthesis of a series of trifluoroacetanilides which were found to maintain the pharmacological properties of the analog sulfonanilides. Many of the obtained compounds inhibited either the carrageenin-induced rat paw edema and the adjuvant-induced arthritis; some showed better anti-inflammatory properties than indomethacin and phenylbutazone. Acute toxicity and ulcerogenic effects were significantly lower than those of reference drugs.
