Abstract

Abstract Benzocycloalkenderivatives substituted in 1-position by carboxyl and carboxyalkyl or two carboxyl groups, and further substituted in the benzene ring by cycloalkyl and optionally other substituents, their esters, amides and pharmaceutically acceptable salts have antiinflammatory and analgesic activity and can be used for the treatment of inflammatory conditions and pain in mammals; a representative embodiment is 1-methoxycarbonyl-5-cyclohexyl-6-chloro-1-indanecarboxylic acid.
