A class of substituted spiro compounds is described for use in treating inflammation and inflammation-related disorders. Compounds of particular interest are defined by Formula III: ##STR1## wherein n is a number selected from 0, 1 and 2; wherein R.sup.3 is methylsulfonyl or sulfamyl; and wherein R.sup.8 is selected from hydrido, fluoro, chloro, bromo, iodo, methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, butyl, tert-butyl, isobutyl, methoxy, ethoxy, propoxy, butoxy, hydroxyl, mercapto, methylthio, ethylthio, cyano, fluoromethyl, difluoromethyl, trifluoromethyl, chloromethyl, dichloromethyl, trichloromethyl, pentafluoroethyl, heptafluoropropyl, difluorochloromethyl, dichlorofluoromethyl, difluoroethyl, difluoropropyl, dichloroethyl, dichloropropyl, trifluoromethoxy, hydroxymethyl, methoxymethyl and ethoxymethyl; or a pharmaceutically-acceptable salt thereof.
A compound of Formula I ##STR33## wherein A is selected from ##STR34## wherein each of R.sup.1 through R.sup.10 is independently selected from hydrido, halo, alkyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, cyano, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, hydroxyalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, hydroxyl, mercapto, alkylsulfonyl, haloalkylsulfonyl and sulfamyl;
A compound of Formula II ##STR35## wherein each of R.sup.1 through R.sup.10 is independently selected from hydrido, halo, alkyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, cyano, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, hydroxyalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, hydroxyl, mercapto, alkylsulfonyl, haloalkylsulfonyl and sulfamyl;
A compound of Formula III ##STR36## wherein n is a number selected from 0, 1 and wherein R.sup.3 is selected from lower alkylsulfonyl and sulfamyl;
A compound of Formula IV ##STR37## wherein n is a number selected from 0, 1, 2 and 3;and wherein each of R.sup.1 through R.sup.5 and R.sup.7 through R.sup.10 is independently selected from hydrido, halo, alkyl, alkoxy, alkylthio, cyano, haloalkyl, hydroxyalkyl, alkoxyalkyl, hydroxyl, mercapto, alkylsulfonyl and sulfamyl;
A compound of Formula V ##STR38## wherein n is a number selected from 0, 1, 2 and 3;
A compound of Formula VI ##STR39## wherein n is a number selected from 0, 1, and 3;
