The title compounds (8) were synthesized through the cyclocondensation of the corresponding N-substituted 4-amino-2-chloro-1,8-naphthyridine-3-carboxamides (4) with the proper hydrazides, in order to evaluate their anti-inflammatory and anti-aggressive properties. Several compounds 8 exhibited high anti-inflammatory activity (carrageenin-induced paw edema assay in the rat) along with appreciable anti-aggressive properties (isolation-induced aggressiveness test in mice). With respect to anti-inflammatory activity, the most active compounds (8n and 8c) produced a 61% edema inhibition at the 25 mg/kg dose, and 50 or 35% inhibition, respectively, at the 12.5 mg/kg dose. The structure-activity relationships are discussed.
