Abstrakt: A series of new 2-methyl-2-[3-(5-piperazin-1-yl-[1,3,4]oxadiazol-2-yl)-phenyl]-propionitrile derivatives 8a-o, 9a-c, 10a-d, and 11a-d were synthesized to meet the structural requirements essential for anticonvulsant property. The structures of all the synthesized compounds were confirmed by means of (1)H NMR, (13)C NMR, and mass spectral studies. The purity of the novel compounds was confirmed by elemental analyses. All the compounds were screened for their anticonvulsant activity against maximal electroshock (MES) seizure method and their neurotoxic effects were determined by rotorod test. Compounds 8d, 8e, and 8f were found to be the most potent of this series. The same compounds showed no neurotoxicity at the maximum dose administered (100 mg/kg). The efforts were also made to establish the structure-activity relationships among the synthesized compounds. The pharmacophore model was used to validate the anticonvulsant activity of the synthesized molecules.
