Design, Synthesis, and Evaluation of the COX-2 Inhibitory Activities of New 1,3-Dihydro-2H-indolin-2-one Derivatives.

ABSTRACT: Thirty-three 1,3-dihydro-2H-indolin-2-one derivatives bearing α, β-unsaturated ketones were designed and synthesized via the Knoevenagel condensation reaction. The cytotoxicity, in vitro anti-inflammatory ability, and in vitro COX-2 inhibitory activity of all the compounds were evaluated. Compounds 4a, 4e, 4i-4j, and 9d exhibited weak cytotoxicity and different degrees of inhibition against NO production in LPS-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. The IC₅₀ values of compounds 4a, 4i, and 4j were 17.81 ± 1.86 μM, 20.41 ± 1.61 μM, and 16.31 ± 0.35 μM, respectively. Compounds 4e and 9d showed better anti-inflammatory activity with IC₅₀ values of 13.51 ± 0.48 μM and 10.03 ± 0.27 μM, respectively, which we
