A series of methyl-substituted imidazo [1, 2-a] pyrazines 8 bearing a carboxylic acid group on the imidazole ring were synthesized. The structures of new compounds were confirmed by 1H-and 13C-NMR spectral data; the correct assignment of carbon resonances was made by means of HETCOR and COLOC experiments. Antiinflammatory, analgesic and ulcerogenic activities in vivo were evaluated and compared with those of antiinflammatory ...
