A series of 2-substituted- and 2,3-disubstituted-4-(4-fluorophenyl)-5-[4-(methylsulfonyl)phenyl]-1H-pyrroles was synthesized and found to be active in the rat adjuvant arthritis model of inflammation. The most active compounds were the 2-halo derivatives in the order of chloro > bromo > iodo. The same pattern of activity was observed for the 2,3-dihalopyrroles. Quantitative structure-activity relationship studies suggested that the activity could be correlated with the molar refractivity and the inductive field effect of the 2-substituent and the lipophilicity of the 3-substituent.
