[Heteroarylalkanoic acids with potential anti-inflammatory activity. II].

A series of (1,2,4-benzothiadiazin-1,1-dioxide-3-yl)acetic acids was prepared so that antiinflammatory activity could be tested. Some of the compounds synthetized showed marked activity against plantar edema induced by carrageenin and/or dextran. It was found that in this series antiinflammatory activity is related to the nature of the substituents on the benzene ring as well as their number, dihalogen substitution being the most favourable modification and dichlorosubstitution in particular giving the compounds most active against both types of edema.

[Antimicrobial activity of derivatives of 1,2,4-benzothiadiazine-1,1-dioxide. VIII].

The antimicrobial activity of a series of fluoro derivatives of benzothiadiazine and sulfonamides was studied. The compounds tested can be grouped as: a) 3-alkylmercapto derivatives of 6-trifluoromethyl-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine-1,1-dioxide (III leads to VI); the 3-mercapto precursor (VII) and the related 3-picolinic salt (VIII); b) 3-trifluoromethyl derivatives of 1,2,4-benzothiadiazine-1,1-dioxide and of its benzene substituted derivatives (IX leads to XVI); c) trifluoroacetylaminobenzenesulfonamides (XVII leads to XXV). Two of the 3-alkylmercapto compounds [(V) and (VI)] showed marked inhibitory activity against some strains of Staphylococcus, Streptococcus and Diplococcus. None of the compounds tested proved active against Gram-negative schizomycetes (genera Salmonella, Shigella, Escherichia, Proteus, Pseudomonas, Enterobacter, Klebsiella, Serratia, Yersinia, Providencia) or against yeasts (Candida).

[Heteroarylalkanoic acids with potential anti-inflammatory activity].

A series of (3-oxodihydro-1,2,4-benzothiadiazin-1,1-dioxide-3-yl)acetic acids [compounds of type (A)] and (1,2,4-benzothiadiazin-1,1-dioxide-3-yl)oxyacetic acids [compounds of type (B)] were synthesised and tested for antiinflammatory activity. Preliminary tests showed certain compounds to have a significant level of antiinflammatory activity in rat paw edema induced by carrageenan. It was found that the antiinflammatory activity of this series of compounds depends on the nature, number and position of the substituents on the benzene ring.

[Antimicrobial effect of derivatives of 1,2,4-benzothiadiazin-1,1-dioxide. VII].

Series of alkyl derivatives of the following have been prepared: 5,7-dichloro- [compounds (II leads to V)], 6-methyl- [compounds (VI leads to IX)] and 6-methoxy-3-mercapto-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine-1,1-dioxide [compounds (X leads to XIII)]. The products were tested for antimicrobial activity. Studies were also made of the corresponding 3-mercapto precursors (XIV, XV, XVI) and the relative 3-picolinium salts (XVII, XVIII, XIX) and also of the 3-picolinium salts of 6-chloro-, 7-chloro- and 6,7-dichloro-3-mercapto-1,2,4-benzothiadiazine-1,1-dioxide (XX, XXI, XXII). Some of the 3-alkylmercapto compounds, and especially the 5,7-dichloro derivative, inhibited various strains of Gram-positive bacteria of the genus Staphylococcus, while the same substances proved much less effective against the genera Streptococcus and Diplococcus. Antimicrobial activity appeared to be influenced by the length of the alkyl chain as well as by the nature and position of the substituents on the benzene ring. The compounds proved inactive against the Gram-negative schizomycetes (Salmonella, Shigella, Escherichia, Proteus, Pseudomonas. Enterobacter, Klebsiella, Serratia, Yersinia, Providencia) and against yeasts (Candida) with the exception of compound (V) which showed slight bacteriostatic action against three strains of Candida albicans.
