  1. Assays were conducted as described in the Methods section. IC50, half-maximal inhibitory concentration; SI, In vitro COX-2 selectivity index: [(COX-1 IC50)/(COX-2 IC50)]; Compounds were tested in HCA-7 cells; data are the mean of three determinations; —, not tested. V molecular, molecular volume, after energy minimization with the molecular mechanic’s geometry optimization module, the molecular volume was calculated using the Alchemy 2000 program (Tripos Inc.). The log P value was calculated using ChemDraw Professional 15.0.0.106.
