title: Cyclooxygenase-1 and cyclooxygenase-2 inhibition of novel 1,2-disubstituted imidazoles.
abstract: Novel 1,2-disubstituted imidazoles were synthesized and tested for COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition. A substituted phenyl cycle in position 1 and an alicyclic tertiary alcohol in position 2 gave COX-1-selective compounds with potency and selectivity depending on the different substituents.
