A novel hybrid compound-2-(4,5-dihydro-1-imidazol-2-yl)phthalazin-1(2)-imine () was synthesized and converted into di-substituted sulfonamide derivatives - and phthalazine ring opening products-hydrazonomethylbenzonitriles -. The newly prepared compounds were characterized using elemental analyses, IR and NMR spectroscopy, as well as mass spectrometry. Single crystal X-ray diffraction data were collected for the representative compounds , , , , and .

Six polysaccharide-based chiral stationary phases were screened to separate the enantiomers of six chloro-containing derivatives and one derivative bearing electron donating mesomeric substituents, chosen for comparison. These compounds are expected to be P2X7 receptor antagonists with potential anti-inflammatory activity. The study was carried out with four different mobile phases composed of n-heptane and ethanol or isopropanol.

In the context of age-related disorders, the receptor of advanced glycation end products (RAGE), plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of these conditions by triggering downstream signaling pathways associated with chronic inflammation and oxidative stress. Targeting this inflammaging phenomenon with RAGE antagonists holds promise for interventions with broad implications in healthy aging and the management of age-related conditions. This study explores the structure-activity relationship (SAR) of pyrazoline-based RAGE antagonists synthesized using an ultrasound-assisted green one-pot two-steps methodology.
