Abstract
The present invention is novel compounds which are 2-heterocyclic-4,6-ditertiarybutyl-5-hydroxy-1,3-pyrimidines, where heterocyclic is selected from imidazole, thiazole, and oxazole, and pharmaceutically acceptable additional salts, bases, and base salts thereof, pharmaceutical compositions and methods of use therefor. The invention compounds are found to have activity as inhibitors of 5-lipoxygenase and/or cyclooxygenase providing treatment of, for example, inflammation.
