A novel series of N-phenyl anthranilic acid-based 1,3,4-oxadiazoles were prepared (4a–h) and subjected to anti-inflammatory, analgesic activity and molecular docking studies to target cyclooxygenase-2 enzyme. 1,3,4-Oxadiazole derivatives were screened for anti-inflammatory activity in carrageenan-induced rat paw edema and analgesic activity by tail immersion method. In synthesized compounds, the free carboxylic group, which is responsible for gastric side effects, was derivatized by heterocyclic 1,3,4-oxadiazole bioactive core, which showed good interaction with COX-2 receptor with good docking score. Among all the synthesized compounds,4eand4fhave emerged out as potential COX-2 inhibitors.

Objective: In silico design and molecular docking of 1,2-benzisoxazole derivatives for their analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity using computational methods.Methods: In silico molecular properties of 1,2-benzisoxazole derivatives were predicted using various software’s such as Chemsketch, Molinspiration, PASS and Schrodinger to select compounds having optimum drug-likeness, molecular descriptors resembling those of standard drugs and not violating the ‘Lipinski rule of 5’. Molecular docking was performed on active site of nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (PDB: 2KSR) for analgesic activity and COX-2 (PDB: 6COX) for anti-inflammatory activity using Schrodinger under maestro molecular modelling environment.Results: From the results of molecular docking studies of 1,2-benzisoxazole derivatives, all the compounds showed good binding interactions with Nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and COX-2. Compounds 4a and 4c showed highest binding scores (-7.46 and-7.21 respectively) with nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and exhibited maximum analgesic activity. Compound 4a showed highest binding score (-7.8) with COX-2 and exhibited maximum anti-inflammatory activity.Conclusion: All the derivatives of 1,2-benzisoxazole showed good analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity as predicted using molecular docking on respective receptors.

Ten compounds from the series of 2-amino-5-(substituted)phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazoles were synthesized and evaluated for anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities. Their structures were characterized by infrared spectroscopy and confirmed by 1H NMR spectroscopy. Anti-inflammatory activity was carried out by carrageenan-induced rat paw oedema method using indomethacin as standard. Analgesic activity was performed by acetic-acid induced writhing method in mice using aspirin as standard. The QSAR studies were performed for the analgesic activity using the software ‘Strike’ from Schrodinger. Docking studies were carried out for COX-2 inhibition using the software ‘Glide’ from Schrodinger. The compounds were obtained in good yields and possessed good anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities. Various physicochemical parameters, contributing towards analgesic activity were identified from the QSAR studies. The Glide Scores were more or less correlated with the anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities of compounds.

: 5-(7-Methyl-2-propyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-5-yl)-4-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiols(6a-i) have been synthesized from key intermediate 7-methyl-2-propyl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole-5-carbohydrazide(3). The hydrazide was treated with different aryl isothiocyanatesto give corresponding thiosemicarbazone derivatives, which underwent cyclization in 4N sodium hydroxide to affordcorresponding title compound. All the compounds evaluated for their in vitro antioxidant and in vivo anti-inflammatory activity. From the results, compounds 6b and 6e have shown potential antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. The biological data was further supported by molecular docking studies, which revealed the binding pattern and the affinity of the molecules in the active site of COX-2.
