N-pyridino benzamide-2-carboxylic acid (PBCA) and its Cu(ll), Ni(ll), Co(ll), Zn(II) and Mn(ll) complexes have been synlhesized and characterised by their elemental analysis, molecular weight determination, molar conductance, infrared and electronic spectra and magnetic measurements. In acute antiinflammatory tests, all the compounds except manganese chelate were found active with a maximum activity of cobalt complex (32.8%), whereas copper chelate was most active in cotton pellet granuloma test and zinc chelate in adjuvant test. The ulcerogenic potential markedly reduced after chelation with copper followed by zinc, cobalt, manganese and nickel complexes.
