                                    A novel series of [4-[4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]-6-(trifluoromethyl)-2-pyrimidine-based cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors, which have a different arrangement of substituents compared to the more common 1,2-diarylheterocycle based molecules, have been discovered. For example, 2-(butyloxy)-4-[4(methylsulfonyl) phenyl]-6-(trifluoromethyl) pyrimidine (47), a member of the 2- pyrimidinyl ether series, has been shown to be a potent and selective inhibitor with a favourable pharmacokinetic pro. le, high brain penetration and good efficacy in rat models of hypersensitivity.
