A series of 2-[4-[[[(substituted-phenyl)amino]carbonyl]amino]phenoxy]-2- methylpropionic acids and other substituted phenoxyacetic acids were synthesized and tested for their ability to reduce the affinity of hemoglobin for oxygen. 2-[4-[[[(3,4,5-trichlorophenyl)amino]carbonyl]amino]phenoxy]-2- methylpropionic acid was found to be the most potent compound known. Structure-activity relationships of the compounds synthesized are discussed.
