Synthesis and quantitative structure–activity relationship study of substituted imidazophosphor ester based tetrazolo[1,5-b]pyridazines as antinociceptive/anti-inflammatory agents

A high-yielding general synthesis of imidazophosphor ester based tetrazolo[1,5- b ]pyridazines is described. A conjugated reaction between 3,6-diazidopyridazine and different types of phosphonyl carbanion reagents followed by intramolecular cyclization afforded the target products, by using sodium ethanolate solution as a reaction medium. Among the products, five compounds, at a dose of 50 mg per kilogram body weight, showed a notable antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory activity without toxic side-effects.
