Two series of N-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)- and N-[3-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-propyl]-3-aryl- and 3-spirocycloalkyl-pyrrolidine-2,5-dione derivatives were synthesized and tested for anticonvulsant activity in the maximum electroshock (MES) seizure and pentetrazole (sc PTZ) seizure threshold tests. Compounds with an aromatic ring at position-3 of pyrrolidine-2,5-dione exhibited anticonvulsant acti...

In the present study, a series of 2-(3'-substituted-2'-hydroxypropylamino)pyridines were synthesized and characterized by IR, 1H-NMR and elemental analysis. The compounds were investigated for anticonvulsant (150, 300 mg/kg) and cardiac activity. 2-(3'-Diethylamino-2'-hydroxypropylamino)pyridine 3 was found to exhibit the highest anticonvulsant activity. 2-(3'-Dimethylamino-2'-hydroxypropylamin...

The cannabinoid CB receptor has been shown to be the primary site of action for cannabinoid-induced effects on the central nervous 1 system. Activation of this receptor has proven to dampen neurotransmission and produce an overall reduction in neuronal excitability. Cannabinoid compounds like D-tetrahydrocannabinol and cannabidiol have been shown to be anticonvulsant in maximal electroshock, a ...

The aim of present study was to design and synthesized a novel series compound which can be evaluate for anticonvulsant, anti-microbial activity. This derivatives Arylidene Hydrazides (4a-4k) were synthesised from o-chloro benzoic acid aniline via Ulmann reaction. synthetic method used simple, rapid economical found accurate reproducible. chemical reaction yielded as 11 Arylidiene Hydrazide acc...
