Abstract

In this research a new series of 6-chloro-3-substituted 5,6-dihydro–[1,2,4] triazolo [3,4-a] phthalazine derivatives were synthesized by using phthalic anhydride as a starting material.

All the newly synthesized compounds were screened for their anticonvulsant activity against MES –Induced seizure model, and the results from the evaluation that compound (4b) showed the best potential anticonvulsant activity compare to standard drug (carbamezapine).

Keywords

Introduction

Phthalazine are unique well known class of nitrogen- containing heterocyclic compounds. The discovery of first naturally accuring pyridazine derivative meant a milestone in the recognition of the potential of the 1,2-diazine core as a valuable unit in medicinal chemistry [1]. Hydralazine is also a hydrazine derivative used pharmacologically as an anti-hypertensive and vasodialating agent [2]. More recently, several 4-substituted phthalazine-1-one have been reported as pharmacologically active scaffold as anticonvulsants agent.

On the other hand, nitrogen containing heterocyclic molecules constitutes the largest portion of chemical entities, which are part of many natural product, fine chemicals and biologically active pharmaceuticals. Phthalazine is important building blocks in the construction of new molecular system for biologically active molecule [3-5]. The development of new and efficient methodologies for the potentially bioactive 4-hydrazinophthalazine-1-one derivative is important.

4-hydrazinophthalazine-1-one is of considerable interest due to their versitile pharmacological activity like anti inflammtory [1], PDE4 inhibitors [3,6] cytotoxic [4], anticancer [5], Vasorelaxant [7] antibacterial [8,9], antifungal [10], antidiabetic [11,12], and anticonvulsant activity [13-16]. A number of established drug molecule like budralaine [17] and Azelastine [6,9] are prepared from the corresponding phthalazine-1-one. Research to find the more effective and safer antiepileptic drugs are, therefore, imperative and challenging in medicinal chemistry [18-22].

Material Methods

Melting point was determined by melting point appratus and was uncorrected. Infrared (IR) spectra were recorded on Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrophotometer 8400 (v in cm-1). Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (1H-NMR) spectra were recorded on Brucer advanced 11400 NMR Spectroscopy in DMSO –d6 or CDCl3 using TMS as internal standard, chemical shift in ppm were experesed in delta unit, Saif Punjab Chandigarh, Reaction times were determined by using Thin Layer Chromatography (TLC) on silica gel plates that was purchages from merk. All the materials that are used in synthesis procedure obtained from Sigma Aldrich Chemical Corporation (sigma- Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), Rankem, and Qualigens.

All other chemical were of analytical grade. All melting points are uncorrected and were measured on an elecrtothermal melting point appratus. Thin layer chromatography (TLC) was performed on Merk TLC aluminium sheets silica gel with detecting by using UV at 254 nm. FTIR Spectra of compounds were recorded using potassium bromide pellets (Perkin Elmer spectrum, RXI FT-IR System). Sample and potassium bromide (IR grade) was mixed in 1: 100 ratios and scanning was done between 4000-400 cm-1. 1H-NMR spectra were run in DMSO-d6 with TMS at the internal standard, on a Bruker advanced II 400 instrument (saif punjab technical university, punjab).
