Synthesis and anti-inflammatory and antipyretic activity of 2-(1′-hydroxy-4′-isopropenyl-1′-methylcyclohexyl-2′-thio)-methylethanoate

2-(1′-Hydroxy-4′-isopropenyl-1′-methylcyclohexyl-2′-thio)methylethanoate was synthesized via the reaction of (+)-1,2-limonene oxide with methylmercaptoacetate. The acute toxicity and anti-inflammatory and antipyretic activities of the starting compounds and the synthesized terpene sulfide were investigated.
