In this study, 15 compounds bearing N,Nphthaloylacetamide structure designed by the molecular simplification approach based on thalidomide structure were synthesized and evaluated for inhibitory potencies against cyclooxgenase (COX) isoenzymes, namely COX-1 and COX-2. The results suggested that the N,Nphthaloylacetamide structure, as a primary amide, has inhibitory activity against cyclooxygenase isoenzymes with a higher COX-1 selectivity. The conversion of the primary amide to secondary or tertiary derivatives lowered the potency but favored the COX-2 selectivity thus yielding the compounds with stronger COX-2 inhibiting activity.
