Abstract: Anticonvulsant activity of thus synthesized 4-(1, 3-dioxoisoindolin-2-yl)-N-phenylbutanamide derivatives is done using Maximal Electroshock Seizures (MES) method. Among them compound V and VI had shown significant anticonvulsant activity with minimal neurotoxic effects. Further chemical studies revealed that substitutions of strong electron withdrawing group at 4-position increases overall activity of the present 4-(1, 3-dioxoisoindolin-2-yl)-N-phenylbutanamide derivatives.


Keywords: Anticonvulsants, GABA- derivatives, Neurotoxic, Epilepsy.
