Abstract

Heterocyclic compounds have provided significant contributions to the field of medicinal chemistry. Pyrazole and pyrazoline are a class of five-membered two adjacent nitrogen-containing compounds that are integral parts of a large number of commercial anti-inflammatory drugs. After an initial introduction to inflammatory response, mechanism involved therein, the chapter compiles recent synthetic schemes along with in-vivo and in-vitro studies of pyrazole and pyrazoline derivative as antiinflammatory compounds on various established and recently recognized molecular targets.
