Abstract:
Azolo[d]pyridazinone is a privileged structure and versatile pharmacophore whose derivatives are associated with diverse biological activities, in particular antidiabetic, antiasthmatic, anticancer, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antithrombotic, antidepressant and antimicrobial activities. The importance of this scaffold against some targets like PDE, COX and DPP-4 has been reviewed in detail previously. In the present review, we have summarized comprehensive information on azolo[d]pyridazinone derivatives investigated by many researchers for their diverse pharmacological activities, structure-activity relationship and molecular modeling studies since 2000. The review may lead scientists in the research fields of organic synthesis, medicinal chemistry and pharmacology to the strategic design and development of azolo[d]pyridazinone-based drug candidates in the future.

Aromatic ring substitutions: Substituting the aromatic ring with –OH groups at positions 3 and 4 yields catecholamines (e.g., epinephrine), which have a high affinity for adrenoceptors. Hydrogen bonding between –OH groups and receptors enhances adrenergic activity.
