Popis: | N- (or S-) Allyl derivatives of phenobarbital (PheB), amobarbital (AB) and thiopental (TP) were prepared, and their pharmacological activities (hypnotic activity and anticonvulsant activity against pentylenetetrazol-induced seizures) were investigated in mice. N-Monoallyl-substituted derivatives (MAPheB, MAAB and MATP) of PheB, AB and TP exhibited hypnotic and anticonvulsant activities. N, S-Diallylthiopental (N, S-DATP) possessed hypnotic activity, but failed to show anticonvulsant activity even at a dose of 250 mg/kg (i.p.). N, N '- Diallyl-substituted derivatives (DAPheB, DAAB and DATP) were devoid of not only the hypnotic activity, but also-the anticonvulsant activity. The interactions of these allyl derivatives with various barbiturates were then studied in order to characterize whether the allyl compounds have antagonistic or potentiating properties. MAPheB, DAPheB, MAAB and DAAB showed dose-dependent potentiation of the sleep induced by the corresponding mother compounds. All the allyl compounds tested prolonged the pentobarbital-induced sleeping time more than 7- to 19-fold as compared with the control. MAAB markedly prolonged the PheB-induced sleeping time by 25-fold, but it did not potentiate the barbital-induced sleep. These results indicate that N- (or S-) allyl derivatives of PheB, AB and TP interact differently with the barbiturates. |
