RESUMEN
Objective of the present work was to evaluate the anti-inflammatory, ulcerogenicity and cyclooxygenase activity of indenopyrimidine derivatives. Anti-inflammatory activity of the tested compounds is investigated by carrageenan-induced rat paw edema assay. Compounds A1, A6, A7 and A12 exhibit the comparable anti-inflammatory activity (79.33-81.33%) to the standard drug diclofenac sodium (85.33%), while A6, A7, A9, A12 and A14 show better ulcer index than the reference standard diclofenac sodium. To rationalize the anti-inflammatory activity, docking experiments are performed to study the ability of these compounds to bind into the active site of COX-2 enzyme.
