Synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of novel N-Mannich bases derived from 5,5-diphenyl and 5,5-di(propan-2-yl)imidazolidine-2,4-dione core
摘要:
The aim of this study was to design and synthesize two series of N-Mannich bases with imidazolidine-2,4-dione core as a potential anticonvulsant with reduced toxicity and broad antiseizure activity. Preliminary screening revealed that the majority of synthesized compounds were effective in the maximal electroshock seizure (MES) and/or subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole (scPTZ) test. The most active in vivo compound, 18 (3-((4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)methyl)-5,5-diphenylimidazolidine-2,4-dione), exhibited an ED50 value comparable to that of phenytoin in the MES test (38.5 mg/kg vs 28.1 mg/kg), and more importantly, it showed four times higher potency than phenytoin in the 6 Hz test (12.2 mg/kg vs > 60 mg/kg). Additionally, 18 exhibited antiallodynic properties in the von Frey test in neuropathic (oxaliplatin-treated) mice. Compound 18 also demonstrated a broader spectrum of anticonvulsant activity than phenytoin and showed statistically significant antinociceptive properties in selected models of chronic pain.
