Synthesis, docking simulation, biological evaluations and 3D-QSAR study of 5-Aryl-6-(4-methylsulfonyl)-3-(metylthio)-1,2,4-triazine as selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors
hence could be considered as a promising lead candidate for further drug development. Furthermore, the affinity data of these compounds were rationalized through enzyme docking simulation and 3D-QSAR study by k-Nearest Neighbour Molecular Field Analysis.
6‐diaryl‐1,2,4‐triazine‐3‐ylthioacetate derivatives were synthesized and their chemical structures were confirmed by NMR, IR and MS spectra. Further in vitro COX‐1/COX‐2 evaluations revealed that compound 6c (COX‐2 IC50 = 10.1 μM, COX‐1 IC50 = 88.8 μM) is the most selective COX‐2inhibitor while maintaining residual inhibition of COX‐1. In order to evaluate their potential use against AD, an in vitro evaluation
