Abstract

Abstract Anti-inflammatory compositions are prepared which comprise a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the formula ##STR1## wherein X is CO or CHOH; Y is CO; the dotted line represents a double bond which is present or absent; R 1 is hydrogen or methyl; R 2 is hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, methyl, trifluoromethyl, methoxyl, hydroxyl, acetoxyl, nitro or amino; R 3 is alkyl of 3 to 8 carbon atoms, cycloalkyl of 3 to 8 carbon atoms, alkenyl of 3 to 8 carbon atoms, cycloalkenyl of 5 to 8 carbon atoms or phenyl unsubstituted or substituted by 1 or 2 substituents selected from the group consisting of fluorine, chlorine, bromine, methyl, ethyl, methoxyl, ethoxyl, benzyloyl, hydroxyl, acetoxyl, trifluoromethyl, nitro, amino, acetyl, methylthiol, methylsulphonyl, methylamino and dimethylamino. Compounds of formula I above are also novel.
