Abstract
A series of N-arylidene-2-(4-chloro-2-(2-fluoro or chlorophenoxy)phenyl)acetic acid hydrazides (16 or 17) was synthesized for their anti-inflammatory activity by the condensation of corresponding hydrazide and aromatic aldehydes. Characterization of these compounds by proton nuclear magnetic resonance showed most of the protons as two separate peaks. The energy was calculated for each possible configuration, and their stereochemical behavior was studied using proton nuclear magnetic resonance techniques. The results indicated that the most stable ste-reoisomers are the two E geometrical isomers, which undergo a rapid cis/trans amide equilibrium with the cis conformer predominating. These analogs exhibited moderate to excellent anti-inflammatory activity in carrageenan-induced rat paw edema assay. Among them,
N-arylidene-2-(4-chloro-2-(2-fluoro or chlorophenoxy)phenyl)acetic acid hydrazides show moderate to excellent anti-inflammatory activity in carrageenan-induced rat paw edema assays.
