Some 3-(4,6-dichloro-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-2-phenylthiazolidin-4-one derivatives were prepared by cyclocondensation reaction between 2-amino-4,6-dichloro-1,3,5-triazine, substituted aromatic aldehyde and ethyl-2-mercaptoacetate, with an yield in the range 76-86 %. Prepared compounds showed antiinflammatory activity. The halogenated electron-withdrawing groups on the phenyl ring of 4-thiazolinone generated antiinflammatory activity. Among the synthesized compounds, 3-(4,6-dichloro-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-2-(2,5- difluorophenyl)thiazolidin-4-one showed better antiinflammatory activity with 72 and 79 % inhibition for TNF-α and IL-6, respectively. Also, molecular docking and pharmacophore modelling performed for this active antiinflammatory compound highlighted that hydrophobicity as an important feature for activity optimization.
