Abstract: This invention relates to the compound 3-[2-(2-Benzimidazolyl) Benzoyloxyethyl]-4(3H)-Quinazolinone of Formula I, and a process for the preparation thereof. The compound exhibits strong analgesic activity and almost zero toxicity in laboratory mice. ##STR1## The compound of Formula I is prepared by acylation of the compound 3-(2-hydroxyethyl)-4(3H)-quinazolinone with a reactive derivative of 2-(2-benzimidazolyl)benzoic acid, preferably its imidazolide, formed by treatment of the acid of Formula III with 1,1'-carbonyldiimidazole. The compounds of Formula II and Formula III are reacted in situ, at room temperature, and in the presence of an inert organic solvent. The product compound is isolated and purified by common techniques.

Abstract: Antiinflammatory substituted phenylacetic acids of low toxicity are prepared by reaction of a salt of an alkyl 3 chloro-4-hydroxyphenylacetate with a substituted benzyl halide in the presence of an inert organic solvent at elevated temperatures.

Abstract: A technique is described for the preparation of a novel anti-inflammatory agent comprising 2-phenyl-2-carboxyethyl 1-(p-chlorobenzoyl)-5-methoxy-2-methyl-3-indolylacetate. The preparative technique involves reacting indomethacin with tropic acid.

Abstract: 8-(.beta.-AMINOETHYL)ERGOLINES-I of the general formula ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is a hydrogen atom or an acyl group of the general formula R.sup.3 --CO, R.sup.3 being a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having from 1-5 carbon atoms, a phenyl group, a phenylalkyl group or a pyridyl group or substituents thereof, and R.sup.2 is a hydrogen atom or a methyl group. Acid addition salts of the described ergolines evidence pharmacological activity in the anti-inflammation and hypotensive fields.
