Popis: | In the current studies we carried out an optimized multistep asymmetric synthesis of R-enantiomers (eutomers) for a previously identified series of racemic hybrid anticonvulsants. The spatial structure of selected enantiomers was solved by the use of crystallographic methods. The compound (R)-16 was identified as a lead, which revealed broad-spectrum protective activity in a range of epilepsy models with the following ED50 values: the maximal electroshock (MES) test (36.0 mg/kg), the 6 Hz (32 mA) seizure model (39.2 mg/kg), and the pentylenetetrazole-induced seizure model (scPTZ) (54.8 mg/kg). Furthermore, (R)-16 displayed a low potency for the induction of motor impairment in the rotarod test (TD50 = 468.5 mg/kg), resulting in potentially very beneficial therapeutic window. Finally, (R)-16 showed satisfying ADME-Tox properties in the in vitro assays. Therefore, the data obtained in the current studies justify the further preclinical development of (R)-16 as candidate for potentially broad-spectrum and safe anticonvulsant. |
