Abstract

A series of novel N-[5-(arylidene)-2-(aryl)-4-oxo-thiazolidin-3-yl]-4-biphenylcarboxamide derivatives was synthesized and evaluated for analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity. In this study, biphenyl-4-carboxylic acid hydrazide was converted to the corresponding aryl hydrazones using aryl aldehydes in the presence of catalytic amount of glacial acetic acid. The aryl hydrazones on reaction with thioglycolic acid in the presence of anhydrous zinc chloride yielded N-[2-(aryl)-4-oxo-thiazolidin-3-yl]-4-biphenylcarboxamide which further on reaction with aromatic aldehydes in the presence of anhydrous sodium acetate and glacial acetic acid furnished the title compounds. All compound exhibited anti-inflammatory activity at the dose 10 mg/kg. The structures of all these newly synthesized compounds were confirmed by their elemental analyses (C, H, N) and spectral data (IR and 1H NMR).
