Starting from phthalic anhydride, several new 6-alkoxy(phenoxy)-[1,2,4] triazolo[3,4-a]phthalazine-3-amine derivatives were synthesized as potent anti-inflammatory agent. The study showed that the compounds 6h (6-(2-chlorophenoxy)-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-a]phthalazine-3-amine) and 6s (6-(4-aminophenoxy)-[1,2,4] triazolo[3,4-a]phthalazine-3-amine) exhibited the highest anti-inflammatory activity (81% and 83% inhibition, respectively, at 0.5 h after i.p. administration) which were slightly more potent than the reference drug Ibuprofen (61%). Furthermore, the peak activity of 6h and 6s was observed at the 3 h after p.o. administration, and they exhibited stronger anti-inflammatory activity than Ibuprofen at the dose of 50 mg/kg at the peak time.
