Abstract

    Aspirinamino acid amides 1(a-f), Aspirin dipeptide amides 2(a-f). tri peptide amides 3(a-f) and tetra peptide amides 4a and 4c were Synthesized. The synthesis ofdipeptide amides were carried out in solution by stepwise elongation of thepeptide chain from the C-terminal amino acid by coupling one amino acid at atime using DCC/HOBt method. The analgesic activity was studied by acetic acidinduced writhing test. From the mean writhing values, it is evident that theentire sequence of the tetrapeptideamide namely, Gly-Gly-Phe-Met-NH2 isessential for the observed analgesic activity of compound A. And, the entiresequence of the tetra peptide amide namely, Gly-Gly-Phe-Leu-NH2 isessential for the observed analgesic activity of compound C. The decrease inanalgesic activity of these compounds is in the order, aspirin tripepitideamides > aspirin dipeptide amides > aspirin amino acid amides.

Keywords: Aspirin,analgesic activity, amino acid amide, di, tri, and tetra peptides
