Abstract

Racemic 6-[4-(3'-hydroxy-1'-octenyl)-3-pyridyloxy]hexanoic and 6-[4-(3'-hydroxyoctyl)-3-pyridyloxy] exanoic acids have been synthesized and their activity as inhibitors of the biosynthesis of thromboxane A2 in human serum has been studied, in comparison with isomers having the eight-carbon chain in the 2 position. Very high, selective activity was found for the new 4-substituted 3-pyridinol ethers, whereas the 2-substituted compounds showed no action.
