157 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The most active compound, 3-[1-acetyl-5-(p-hydroxyphenyl)-2-pyrazolin-3-yl]indole (7) was found to be most potent, which has shown higher percent of inhibition of oedema, lower ulcerogenic liability and acute toxicity than the standard drug phenylbutazone.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Four tetrazolo[1,5-a]quinoline derivatives were proved to be as active as indomethacin in animal models of inflammation and antimicrobial activities.

139 citations


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: 5-(4-[2-[N-methyl-(5-phenyl-pyridin-2-yl)amino]ethoxy]benzyl)thiazolidine-2,4-dione (6d) was selected as a candidate for further pharmacological studies.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: It is shown that logarithms of PS-products, log PS, can satisfactorily be correlated with the five Abraham descriptors for 30 neutral compounds, and molecular size leads to an increase in permeation rate, and dipolarity/polarizability, hydrogen bond acidity and hydrogen bond basicity all decrease the rate of permeation.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The Tuberculosis Antimicrobial Acquisition and Coordinating Facility has provided anti-mycobacterial data concerning inhibition activity of 12 compounds.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Some 2-[(benzazole-2-yl)thioacetylamino]thiazole derivatives (III) were synthesized by reacting 4-methyl-2-(chloroacetyamino)thiazoles derivatives (I) with benzazol- 2-thiole (II) in acetone in the presence of K(2)CO(3).

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The pharmacophore, which contains two hydrogen bond acceptors (lipid) and two hydrophobic (aromatic) features, was found to map well onto many well-known antimalarial drug classes including quinolines, chalcones, rhodamine dyes, Pfmrk cyclin dependent kinase inhibitors, malarial FabH inhibitors, and plasmepsin inhibitors.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: (1,3-Benzothiazol-2-yl) amino-9-(10H)-acridinone derivatives were synthesized via a procedure based on the Ullman reaction and were assessed for their in vitro antileishmanial and anti-HIV activities.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Examination of structure-activity-relationships at P2 receptors of a series of NF449 analogues found it to be the most potent and selective P2X(1) antagonist known.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Synthesis of some new 3-aryl/hetryl-5,7-dimethyl-1,2,4-triazolo[4,3-a]pyrimidines (3a-k) has been accomplished by the oxidation of 4,6-dimethy-2- pyrimidinylhydrazones of various aldehydes with iodobenzene diacetate in dichloromethane.
