N-(3-Cyano-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzothiophen-2-yl)-2-[[5-[(1,5-dimethyl-3-oxo-2-phenylpyrazol-4-yl)amino]-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl]sulfanyl]acetamide

The small pyrazolone-bearing molecules attract attention and are widely explored in drug design as pharmacological agents. The new pyrazolone-thiadiazole hybrid molecule N-(3-cyano-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzothiophen-2-yl)-2-[[5-[(1,5-dimethyl-3-oxo-2-phenylpyrazol-4-yl)amino]-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl]sulfanyl]acetamide (3) has been synthesized following a two-stage protocol using simple, convenient transformations and cheap, commercially available reagents. The compound’s structure was confirmed using 1H, 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) spectra. The anti-inflammatory potency of 3 was evaluated in silico using molecular docking. The docking studies results suggest that title compound 3 is of great interest for further structure optimization and in-depth studies as a possible 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) inhibitor.
