Popis: | A series of pharmacophoric hybrids of ameltolide-γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-amides was designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their anticonvulsant and neurotoxic properties. Initial anticonvulsant screening was performed using intraperitoneal (ip) maximal electroshock-induced seizure (MES), subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole (scPTZ), and subcutaneous picrotoxin (scPIC)-induced seizure threshold tests. All the compounds had improved lipophilicity and the pharmacological activity profile confirmed their blood–brain barrier penetration. The titled compounds showed promising activity in scPIC screen indicating the involvement of GABA-mediation. Compound 4-(2-(2,6-dimethylaminophenylamino)-2-oxoethylamino)- N -(2,6-dimethylphenyl) butanamide ( 7 ) emerged as the most potent derivative effective in all the three animal models of seizure with no neurotoxicity at the anticonvulsant dose. |
