Abstract: A novel class of pyrrolidin-2-one and piperidin-2-one compounds in which the nitrogen atom is bonded to an oxyphenyl radical having tertiary-alkyl and tri-methylsilyl substituents. The compounds possess anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, analgesic and anti-pyretic activity and they may be combined with excipients to provide formulations which are useful in treating arthritis and conditions associated with that disease.
Abstract: A new class of phosphines in which the phosphorous atom is bonded directly to the carbon of an oxazinone: ##STR1## In addition to their anti-inflammatory activity, these phosphines are useful as intermediates in producing compounds where the phosphine is replaced by a benzylidine, compounds which have also been proven useful in the treatment of inflammation and other conditions associated with arthritis.
Abstract: A flexible trim member or molding for use when installing siding or coping on building structures. The trim member is fabricated of accordian or pleated type construction to allow for placement upon inside corners and edges that are uneven or irregular.
