APPLICATIONS

Pyrazolone is a five-membered lactam ring compound containing two nitrogens and ketone in the same molecule. Lactam structure is an active nucleuses in pharmacological activity. Pyrazolone is an active moiety as a pharmaceutical ingredient, especially in the class of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory agents used in the treatment of arthritis and other musculoskeletal and joint disorders. The term of pyrazolone sometimes refers to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents.  Pyrazolone class NSAID (nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug) includes phenylbutazone, oxyphenbutazone, dipyrone, and ramifenazone. Antipyrine (also called phenazone) is a pyrazolone class analgesic agent in otic solutions in combination with other analgesic such as benzocaine, and phenylephrine. Antipyrine has been used as an antipyretic, but replaced due to the possibility of agranulocytosis side effect. Lactams have big demand in artificial fibre industry.
