The compounds of formula VI, which are used as starting material in the first and sixth processes, may be prepared by the fourth above-described process or by reacting an aliphatic amine with a 4-halogeno-pyridine sulfonamide according to the third above-described process.

It has been found that the compounds of formulae I and V have anti-inflammatory and diuretic properties.

These properties have been determined by the following tests.

1. Pharmacological test for anti-inflammatory properties.

The compounds to be tested are given as freshly prepared solutions or suspensions by oral route 1 hour before injecting the paw of rats with carrageenan which is a known inflammatory agent.

The inflammatory agent (carrageenan) either in solution or suspension is then injected into the plantar tissue of the right hind paw of each rat, the left paw remaining untreated and serving as control. Each animal receives, for example, 0.05 ml of an aqueous solution containing 1% by weight of carrageenan and 0.9% of sodium chloride.

4 hours after the injection of the inflammatory agent, the importance of swelling is determined by plethysmography and is expressed as a percent of the volume of the control paw.

The anti-inflammatory effect expressed as a percentage of inhibition is obtained by comparison between rats treated with the anti-inflammatory compound and a control group of rats.

2. Pharmacological tests for diuretic properties

Lots of 3 rats weighting 250-300 g have been constituted at random, each of them being submitted to the same treatment.

The compound to be tested was administered by .[.gastric gavage at a dose of 50 ml/kg as a solution or a.]. .Iadd.gastric gavage at a dose of 50 mg/kg as a solution or a .Iaddend.suspension in water containing 0.45% of methylcellulose (which is an inert mucilaginous substance). Control animals received only distilled water as a placebo. At the same time, all the animals received 25 ml/kg of physiological saline by subcutaneous injection.

The rats were then placed in metabolic cages, each cage containing 3 animals receiving the same treatment. The urines have been collected during 4 hours.

The increase of urine volume in the treated animals compared with the urine volume of the control animals shows the diuretic action. The diuresis is expressed in ml/kg of body weight.

The results of the tests made with a great number of compounds according to this invention are given in the following table.
