Abstract
The present invention relates to compounds of the formula ##STR1## and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof wherein Z is selected from optionally substituted phenyl, furyl, thienyl or thiazolyl; which inhibits leukotriene biosynthesis and is useful in the treatment of inflammatory disease states; also disclosed are leukotriene biosynthesis inhibiting compositions and a method for inhibiting 5-lipoxygenase activity and leukotriene biosynthesis.
