Abstract

Results Tables IV and V summarize the data on anticonvulsant activity obtained for the compounds prepared. N-Phenacylimidazole (42; log P= 1.03) and the corresponding alcohol, namely, N-(P-phenyl-6-hydroxyethy1) imidazole (47; log P= 0.99), showed no anticonvulsant activity. Also, when hydrophilic substituents (OH, OCH3, NH2, NHCOCH3, NHS02CH3, NO2) were introduced into the phenyl moiety (compounds 1-6, 43, 22-26; ...
