Abstract

Abstract (1-Oxoinden-5-yloxy)- and (1-Oxoinden-5-ylthio)-alkanoic acid products and salts, esters and amide derivatives thereof wherein the 1-oxoindenyl ring may be substituted by various radicals are disclosed. The said products are diuretic and saluretic agents. The products may be prepared by three routes: (1) via the dehydrohalogenation of a (1-oxo-2-halo-5-indanyloxy(or thio))alkanoic acid; (2) via the etherification of a 5-hydroxy-(or mercapto)inden-1-one; or (3) via the hydrolysis of a (1-oxoinden5-yloxy-(or thio))alkanoic acid ester.
