Synthesis and biological evaluation of some 5-ethoxycarbonyl-6- isopropylamino-4-(substitutedphenyl)aminopyrimidines as potent analgesic and anti-inflammatory agents

Abstract

Synthesis and biological evaluation of some 5-ethoxycarbonyl-6-isopropylamino-4-(substitutedphenyl)aminopyrimidines have been achieved by cyclization of N-[2-ethoxycarbonyl-2-cyano-1-(isopropylamino)vinyl] formamidine in presence of dry HCl in dioxane followed by nucleophilic substitution of 4-chloro group with substituted aromatic amine or phenoxide. Target compounds were evaluated for their analgesic and anti-inflammatory potential by known experimental models. Some of the compounds emerged out as more potent than standard drugs. Very low ulcer index was observed for the potent compounds.2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
