The invention relates to catechol carboxylic acid derivatives of the formula ##STR1## wherein, R.sub.1 is ##STR2## acetyl, hydrogen, hydroxy or alkanoyloxy, R.sub.2 is ##STR3## hydroxy, hydrogen or alkanoyloxy, wherein R is hydrogen, lower alkyl or --(CH.sub.2).sub.n --N--(lower alkyl).sub.2, R.sub.3 is hydrogen, lower alkyl or amino, R.sub.4 is hydrogen, lower alkyl, halogen or amino A is ##STR4## wherein, R.sub.5 is hydrogen or acyl, R.sub.6 is hydrogen, halogen, lower alkyl, aryl or cycloalkyl, and R.sub.7 and R.sub.8, independently, are hydrogen, lower alkyl or halogen, or A is ##STR5## wherein, R.sub.5 is hydrogen or acyl, R.sub.9 is hydrogen, lower alkyl, R.sub.10 is hydrogen, lower alkyl or halogen, R.sub.11 is hydrogen, lower alkyl, cycloalkyl or halogen, m is 0 or 1, n is an integer of 2-10, provided, that no more than one of R.sub.1 or R.sub.2 can be hydroxy, alkanoyloxy or ##STR6## and when R is hydrogen, salts thereof with pharmaceutically acceptable bases or when R is --(CH.sub.2).sub.n --N--(lower alkyl).sub.2, salts thereof with pharmaceutically acceptable acids. The compounds of formula I are useful as agents for the treatment of inflammatory diseases such as arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease such as colitis, cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial ischemia, skin diseases such as psoriasis by topical administration, and bronchopulmonary diseases such as asthma. |

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION As used herein, the term "lower alkyl" denotes a straight or branched chain saturated hydrocarbon containing 1 to 7 carbon atoms, for example, methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, butyl, t-butyl, neopentyl, pentyl, heptyl, and the like. Branched chain saturated hydrocarbons are preferred for R. sub. 6, R. sub. 9 and R. sub. 11. The term "halogen" denotes all the halogens, that is, bromine, chlorine, fluorine, and iodine. The term "aryl" denotes phenyl or phenyl bearing one or two substituents independently selected from the group consisting of halogen, trifluoromethyl, lower alkyl, lower alkoxy, nitro, amino, lower alkylamino and di-lower alkylamino. The term "acyl" denotes an "alkanoyl" group derived from an aliphatic carboxylic acid of 1 to 7 carbon atoms, for example, formyl, acetyl, propionyl, and the like; and an "aroyl" group derived from an aromatic carboxylic acid, for example, benzoyl and the like. The term "alkanoyloxy" denotes a group derived from an aliphatic carboxylic acid of 1 to 7 carbon atoms, for example, formyloxy, acetoxy, propionyloxy, and the like. The term "cycloalkyl" denotes preferably a cyclic hydrocarbon of 3 to 6 carbon atoms which may be unsubstituted or substituted by lower alkyl and most preferably of 5 to 6 carbon atoms, for example, cyclopropyl, cyclopentyl, cyclohexyl or the like. The invention relates to catechol carboxylic acid derivatives of the formula ##STR13## wherein R. sup. 1 is ##STR14## acetyl, hydrogen, hydroxy or alkanoyloxy, R. sub. 2 is ##STR15## hydroxy, hydrogen or alkanoyloxy, wherein R is hydrogen, lower alkyl or --(CH. sub. 2). sub. n N (lower alkyl). sub. 2, R. sub. 3 is hydrogen, lower alkyl or amino, R. sub. 4 is hydrogen, lower alkyl, halogen or amino, A is ##STR16## wherein R. sub. 5 is hydrogen or acyl, R. sub. 6 is hydrogen, halogen, lower alkyl, aryl or cycloalkyl, and R. sub. 7 and R. sub. 8, independently, are hydrogen, lower alkyl or halogen, or A is ##STR17## wherein R. sub. 5 is hydrogen or acyl, R. sub. 9 is hydrogen or lower alkyl, R
