Abstract

The phenyl hydrazones of 2-phenyl-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines (7a-l) were prepared by the condensation of 2-phenyl-3-formyl-imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines 5 with phenyl hydrazines 6 in ethanol. The compounds were characterized by IR, ¹H NMR and Mass spectral analysis. All the synthesized compounds were subjected for anti-inflammatory screening using protein denaturation assay and antioxidant screening. Most of the compounds were found to be potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agents. Compounds 7k, 7j, 7h and 7g were found to possess significant anti-inflammatory and antioxidant potential.
