| 摘要 |
The invention concerns a cyclic ether derivative of the formula I <IMAGE> I wherein Ar1 is optionally substituted phenyl, naphthyl or a 9- or 10-membered bicyclic heterocyclic moiety; A1 is a direct link to X1 or (1-3C)alkylene; X1 is oxy, thio, sulphinyl, sulphonyl or imino; Ar2 is optionally substituted phenylene or pyridylene; R1 includes hydrogen, (1-4C)alkyl, (1-4C)alkcxycarbonyl and (1-4C)alkylthio; and R2 and R3 together form a group of the formula -A2-X2-A3- which, together with the carbon atom to which A2 and A3 are attached, defines a ring having 5 to 7 ring atoms, wherein each of A2 and A3 is (1-3C)alkylene and X2 is oxy, thio, sulphinyl or sulphonyl; or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof. The compounds of the invention are inhibitors of the enzyme 5-lipoxygenase.
