Abstract

Abstract Compounds of the general formula I ##STR1## wherein one of the two radicals R 1 and R 2 denotes the acyl radical of a carboxylic acid of aromatic character and the other denotes hydrogen or optionally esterified or etherified hydroxyl, R 3 denotes hydrogen, alkyl or hydroxyalkyl, R 4 denotes optionally esterified or amidised carboxyl, m denotes 1 or 2 and n denotes 0 or 1, in the free form or in the form of their salts are useful as antiphlogistics, mild analgesics, antipyretics and as anti-rheumatic agents.
