Abstract:Eight oxazolone compounds(3a~3h) were synthesized by Erlenmeyer cyclization of hippuric acid with substituted benzaldehyde. The structures were confirmed by 1H NMR, FT-IR and HR-MS. The results of anti-inflammation by xyleneinduced mice ear edema suggested that 3f[4-(3,5-dimethoxy-benzylidene)-2-phenyl-4H-5-oxazolone] exhibited better anti-inflammatory activity(50.3%) than aspirin(41.5%).
