, (2008/06/13)
An oxoindanylpropionic acid having the formula STR1 wherein R represents ethyl group or isopropyl group and a salt thereof is prepared by reacting a dicarboxylic acid having the formula STR2 wherein R has the same meaning as defined above with a condensing agent, for example, sulfuric acid. The oxoindanylpropionic acid is reduced to give the corresponding indanylpropionic acid which is useful as anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic agents.
