Synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of pyrazolopyrimidopyrimidine derivatives: anti-inflammatory agents with gastroprotective effect in rats (original) (raw)

Medicinal Chemistry Research

Abstract

We report the synthesis of new anti-inflammatory 1,7-dihydropyrazolo[3',4':4,5]pyrimido[1,6-a]pyrimidine 5 from aminocyanopyrazole. All compounds were characterized by physical, chemical and spectral studies. Preliminary pharmacological evaluation of the resulting products showed that compounds 5a, b, f (50-100 mg/kg, i.p) are active anti-inflammatory agents in carrageenan-induced rat paw oedema assay, and their effects are comparable to that of acetylsalicylic-lysine (300 mg/kg, i.p.), used as a reference drug. The nature of substituent (Y, R3) had a pronounced effect on the anti-inflammatory activity. Studies of structure-activity relationships have led to selection of compound ethyl-3,5-dimethyl-7-imino-N (1)-phenyl-1,7-dihydropyrazolo[3',4':4,5]pyrimido[1,6-a]pyrimidine-6-carboxylate, 5f which exhibited the most potent anti-inflammatory activity. In addition, the compounds 5a, b, f showed a significant gastroprotective effect against HCl/EtOH-induced gastric ulcer.
