Abstract: There are disclosed compounds of the formula (I): ##STR1## in which the variables R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5, R.sub.6, and X are defined in the specification. The compounds are useful as pharmaceuticals, especially as anti-inflammatory agents.

Abstract: There are described compounds of formula I, ##STR1## in which Ra, Rb, Rc, Rd, Re, Rf and Rg, which may be the same or different, each represent hydrogen, amino, hydroxy, alkoxy, alkenyloxy, halogen, acyl, alkenyl, alkyl, or alkoxy substituted by phenyl,Rh is hydrogen, alkyl or --COOH.X is a hydrocarbon chain containing from 2 to 10 carbon atoms and optionally substituted by a hydroxy group,A has no significance or represents Y, OY, or SY and Y represents a C 1 to 4 hydrocarbon chain which is optionally substituted by alkyl C 1 to 4,E and G, which may be the same or different, each represent --O--, --S-- or --CH.sub.2 --, provided that at least one of E and G is --O-- or --S--,L, together with the carbon atoms to which it is attached, forms a benzene, furan, thiophene, pyrrole, or pyran-2-one ring,and pharmaceutically acceptable derivatives thereof.

Abstract: There are described compounds of formula I, ##STR1## in which R.sub.1, R.sub.2, R.sub.3, R.sub.4, R.sub.5 and R.sub.7, which may be the same or different, each represent hydrogen, hydroxy, alkyl Cl to 6, alkoxy C1 to 6, amino, acyl C2 to 6, acylamino C2 to 6, alkenyl C2 to 6, halogen, or alkoxy C1 to 6 substituted by phenyl,X is a hydrocarbon chain of 1 to 10 carbon atoms optionally substituted by a hydroxy group,A is --Q--COOH,Q is absent or represents a straight or branched alkylene, alkenylene or alkynylene group of up to and including 6 carbon atoms,R.sub.8 and R.sub.9, which may be the same or different, each represent hydrogen or alkyl C1 to 6 or together form a single bond,D, Y and Z, which may be th same or different, each represent sulphur, oxygen or --NR.sub.10 --, andR.sub.10 is hydrogen or alkyl C1-C6,provided that(i) when D, Z and Y are all oxygen, R.sub.8 and R.sub.9 do not together form a single bond,(ii) when D is oxygen, R.sub.8 and R.sub.9 together form a single bond, X is (CH.sub.2).sub.
