N-hydroxy-dibenzb,eoxepinalkylamines, n-hydroxy-dibenzb, e oxepinalkanoic acid amides and related heterocyclic analogues

摘要

This invention relates to N-hydroxy-dibenz[b,e] oxepinalkylamines, N- hydroxy-dibenz[b,e]oxepinalkanoic acid amides and related heterocyclic analogues of the formula ##STR1## where X together with the carbon atoms to which it is attached forms a benzene or thiophene ring; W and Z are independently hydrogen, halogen, loweralkyl, or trifluoromethyl; R.sup.1 is hydrogen, arylloweralkyl, loweralkoxycarbonyl, loweralkylcarbonyl, arylcarbonyl or arylloweralkylcarbonyl; R.sup.2 is loweralkyl, cycloalkyl, arylloweralkyl, loweralkoxycarbonyl, loweralkylcarbonyl, arylcarbonyl or arylloweralkylcarbonyl; m is 0 or 1 and n is an integer of 0 to 4 or the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof. The compounds of this invention are useful as analgesics and topical antiinflammatory agents for the treatment of various dermatoses and agents for the treatment of conditions where accumulation of cyclooxygenase and/or lipoxygenase metabolites is a causative factor.
