title: 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase inhibitory activity of some N(3)-(1-R-4-carboxypyrazol-5-yl)-1,2,3-benzotriazin-4(3H)-one and quinazolin-4(3H)-one acids.
abstract: Some carboxylic acids of N(3)-pyrazole substituted 1,2,3-benzotriazin-4-(3H)-ones and- quinazolin-4-(3H)-ones were prepared and tested for the inhibitory property of 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase of rat liver cytosol. The results indicated that the degree of inhibition can be used to predict the antiinflammatory potency of the compounds described.
