A series of N-(2-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzyl)-benzoxazole-5-yl)benzamide derivatives (3a–3n) was synthesized and evaluated for its in vitro inhibitory activity against COX-1 and COX-2. The compounds with considerable in vitro activity (IC50 < 1 µM), were evaluated in vivo for their anti-inflammatory and ulcerogenic potential. Out of the fourteen newly synthesized compounds; 3b, 3d, 3e, 3h, 3l and 3m were found to be most potent COX-2 inhibitors in in vitro enzymatic assay with IC50 in the range of 0.14–0.69 µM. In vivo anti-inflammatory activity of these six compounds (3b, 3d, 3e, 3h, 3l and 3m) was assessed by carrageenan induced rat paw edema method. The compound 3b (79.54%), 3l (75.00%), 3m (72.72%) and 3d (68.18%) exhibited significant anti-inflammatory activity than standard drug ibuprofen (65.90%). Ulcerogenic activity with histopathological studies was performed, and the screened compounds demonstrated significant gastric tolerance than ibuprofen. Molecular Docking study was also performed with resolved crystal structure of COX-2 to understand the interacting mechanisms of newly synthesized inhibitors with the active site of COX-2 enzyme and the results were found to be in line with the biological evaluation studies of the compounds.
