Abstract
A number of novel 1,5-diarylpyrazoles possessing N-substitution on the sulfonamide (-SO2NH2) moiety were synthesized and tested for COX-1/COX-2 inhibition in vitro. Many of these 1,1-dioxo-2,3- dihydrobenzo[d]isothiazolyl substituted 1,5-diarylpyrazoles, where the SO2NH2 group was a part of the fused ring, showed COX inhibitory activity. Few of them were identified as selective COX-2 inhibitors. Structure Activity Relationship study within the series are discussed.
