Abstract Two proton transfer compounds, formed between 2-aminobenzothiazole derivatives (2-aminobenzothiazole (abt) and 2-amino-6-ethoxybenzothiazole (EtOabt)) and 5-sulfosalicylic acid dihydrate (H3ssa) as parent compounds, (Habt)+(H2ssa)− (1) and (HEtOabt)+(H2ssa)− (2) and their Cu(II) complexes (3 and 4, respectively) have been prepared and characterized using spectroscopic techniques. The single crystal X-ray diffraction method has been also applied to 3 and 4. Although 3 has a distorted octahedral form, 4 exhibits a distorted square pyramidal geometry. All compounds, including saline and diclofenac sodium as standards, have been evaluated pharmacologically for their anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities in rats and mice. Parent compounds (abt, EtOabt, and H3ssa) 3 and 4 show significant anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities as compared with control compounds. Graphical Abstract
