ABSTRACT
There is an increasing prevalence of epileptic patients throughout the world and new
compounds are necessary to overcome this. While the current available treatment causes
abnormal body movement, loss of coordination and confusion, etc. this has led to a demand
for more affordable, more effective methods for epileptic patients. Aim of this research is too
focused on finding alternative medicinal remedies with significant anticonvulsant activity as
well as low adverse effects. This study synthesized, characterized, and evaluated anti-
convulsant properties of synthetic Hydantoin hybrid of 5, 5-Diphenylimidazolidione-2, 4-
dione derivatives. Hybrid between phenytoin and 1-Oxa-4-azacyclohexane Tetrahydro-1, 4-
oxazine Diethylene oximide were synthesized and tested for anticonvulsant activity.
MATERIAL AND METHODS: Preliminary anticonvulsant activity was performed using
subcutaneous phentylenetetrazole (scPTZ) screens in Wistar rats. Standard dose of phenytoin
is 100mg/kg is used in this model and dose of PTZ is 85mg/kg is used. RESULT: Among
synthesized compounds the anticonvulsant activity are shown by AA, AC, AC1, AC6 and
AC7 having the highest protection (80%) in the scPTZ test at a dose of 85mg/kg whereas thecompound AC (step-III) product shows promising anticonvulsant effect in the PTZ model.
CONCLUSION: Derivatives developed in this study provide new classes of anti-convulsant
effect, and further optimization like bioavailability and lowering the side effect as much as
possible can be performed using this information.
