Abstract
Scientific research programs and reports are continuously pouring in with respect to improvised synthetic techniques to prepare numerous pyrazolone derivatives and with regard to their diverse biological, pharmacological and chemical applications. When pyrazolones were discovered, they were only known as NSAID but in recent times, they are known to exhibit antioxidant, anticancer, antibacterial and several other pharmacological actions. These derivatives were withdrawn from the market because of their adverse effects such as agranulocytosis, skin rashes and blood dyscrasis etc, but recently they are again finding their place in the market and are being extensively used in cerebral ischemia and cardio vascular diseases. Since its introduction into medicine, there have been more than 1000 compounds made in an effort to find others with more potent analgesic action combined with less toxicity. Keeping in view the increasing importance of these derivatives, a need for the review is felt. This review deals with up to-date literature on biological and pharmacological properties of pyrazolone derivatives.
