Synthesis, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, ulcerogenic index and antibacterial activities of novel 2-methylthio-3-substituted-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-ones.

A variety of novel 2-methylthio-3-substituted-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4(3H)-ones have been synthesized by reacting (2-methylthio-4-oxo-3H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3-yl)dithiocarbamic acid methyl ester (5) with a variety of amines. The starting material dithiocarbamate (5) was synthesized from 2-amino-3-carbethoxy-4,5,6,7-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thiophene (1) by a novel innovative route. The title compounds were investigated for analgesic, anti-inflammatory, ulcerogenicity index and antibacterial activities. While the test compounds exhibited significant activity, the compounds 1-methyl-3-(2-methylthio-4-oxo-3H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3-yl)thiourea (A1), 1-dimethyl-3-(2-methylthio-4-oxo-3H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3-yl)thiourea (A2), 1-diethyl-3-(2-methylthio-4-oxo-3H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3-yl)thiourea (A3) and 1-pyrrolidinyl-3-(2-methylthio-4-oxo-3H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3-yl)thiourea (A4) showed more potent analgesic activity and the compounds 1-dimethyl-3-(2-methylthio-4-oxo-3H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3-yl)thiourea (A2), 1-diethyl-3-(2-methylthio-4-oxo-3H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno-[2,3-d]pyrimidin-3-yl)thiourea (A3) and 1-pyrrolidinyl-3-(2-methylthio-4-oxo-3H-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrobenzo (b) thieno[2,3-d] pyrimidin-3-yl)thiourea (A4) showed more potent anti-inflammatory activity than the reference standard diclofenac sodium.

Liquid-chromatographic separation and determination of process-related impurities, including a regio-specific isomer of celecoxib on reversed-phase C18 column dynamically coated with hexamethyldisilazane.

A simple and rapid reversed-phase high-performance liquid-chromatographic method for the separation and determination of process-related impurities of celecoxib (CXB) in bulk drugs and pharmaceuticals was developed. The separation of impurities viz., 4-methylacetophenone (I), 1-(4-methylphenyl)-4,4,4-trifluorobutane-1,3-dione (II), 4-hydrazinobenzene sulfonamide (III) and a regio-specific isomer [3-(4-methylphenyl)-5-trifluoromethyl-1H-pyrazole-1-yl]-benzenesulfonamide (IV), was accomplished on an Inertsil ODS-3 column dynamically coated with 0.1% hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) in acetonitrile:water (55:45 v/v) as a mobile phase and detection at 242 nm using PDA at ambient temperature. The chromatographic conditions were optimized by studying the effects of HMDS, an organic modifier, time of silanization and column temperature. The method was validated and found to be suitable not only for monitoring the synthetic reactions, but also to evaluate the quality of CXB.

An overview of the recent developments in analytical methodologies for determination of COX-2 inhibitors in bulk drugs, pharmaceuticals and biological matrices.

An extensive survey of the literature published in various analytical and pharmaceutical chemistry related journals has been conducted and the instrumental analytical methods which were developed and used for determination of COX-2 inhibitors in bulk drugs, formulations and biological fluids have been reviewed. This review covers the time period from 1995 to 2004 during which 138 analytical methods including all types of spectrophotometric and chromatographic techniques were reported. HPLC with UV detection was found to be the technique of choice for many workers and more than 100 methods were based on LC and UV. A critical analysis of the reported data has been carried out and the present state-of-art of the analytical techniques for determination of celecoxib, rofecoxib, etoricoxib, etodolac, nimesulide and meloxicam has been discussed.

Development and validation of a reversed-phase liquid chromatographic method for separation and simultaneous determination of COX-2 inhibitors in pharmaceuticals and its application to biological fluids.

An isocratic reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic method has been developed for separation and simultaneous determination of COX-2 inhibitors, viz., celecoxib, rofecoxib, valdecoxib, nimesulide and nabumetone, using 4-chloro-2-nitroaniline as internal standard. Good chromatographic separation was achieved using a reversed-phase Inertsil C(18) column with mobile phase consisting of methanol and 0.05% aqueous glacial acetic acid (68:32 v/v) using photodiode array (PDA) detector at 230 nm. It was validated with respect to accuracy, precision, linearity, limit of detection and quantification. The linearity range was found to be 1.0--20 microg/mL and the percentage recoveries were between 97.55 and 100.14. The method is suitable not only for the estimation of active ingredients in pharmaceutical dosage forms but also in vitro estimations in human plasma. It is simple, rapid, selective and capable of detecting and determining COX-2 inhibitors with a detection limit of 0.127--1.040 microg/mL simultaneously.

Synthesis and pharmacological investigation of some novel 2,3-disubstituted quinazolin-4(3H)-ones as analgesic and antiinflammatory agents.

A series of novel 2-substituted quinazolin-4(3H)-ones have been synthesized by condensing the aromatic primary amine of 2-substituted quinazolines with different aldehydes and ketones. The synthesized compounds were confirmed by their spectral data (IR, NMR and MS) and the purity was ascertained by elemental analysis. When these compounds were evaluated for analgesic and antiinflammatory activities, compounds I-VIII exhibited more potent analgesic activity than diclofenac sodium, while the compounds IV, V, VI and VII exhibited more potent antiinflammatory activity than diclofenac sodium. The activity values were found to be significant as compared to those of controls.
