Popis: | A series of 3-substituted 2-piperidinone (delta-valerolactam) and hexahydro-2H-azepin-2-one (epsilon-caprolactam) derivatives were prepared and evaluated as anticonvulsants in mice. In the 2-piperidinone series, 3,3-diethyl compound 7b is the most effective anticonvulsant against pentylenetetrazole-induced seizures (ED50, 37 mg/kg; PI (TD50/ED50), 4.46), and 3-benzyl compound 4c (ED50, 41 mg/kg; PI, 7.05) is the most effective anticonvulsant against seizures induced by maximal electroshock. By contrast, none of the epsilon-caprolactams tested had anticonvulsant effects below doses causing rotorod toxicity. log P values were correlated with neurotoxicity and [35S]TBPS displacement, but not with anticonvulsant activity. Electrophysiological evaluations of selected compounds from each series indicated that both the delta-valero-lactams and epsilon-caprolactams potentiated GABA-mediated chloride currents in rat hippocampal neurons. |
