Abstract
The present investigation is concerned with the synthesis of different acylated 1,2,4-triazole-3-acetates with the objective of discovering novel and potent anti-inflammatory agents. Structures of the synthesized compounds were elucidated by spectral and elemental analyses. The obtained compounds were evaluated for their anti-inflammatory activites as well as gastric ulcerogenic effects and acute toxicity. Results showed that 1-acylated-5-amino-1,2,4-triazole-3-acetates 3a-e showed higher anti-inflammatory activity than the corresponding 5-acylamino derivatives 4a-e in carageenan-induced rat paw edema test with low gastric ulcerogenicity compared with indomethacin. Furthermore, molecular modeling studies were performed in order to rationalize the obtained biological results.
