Abstract

In the present study on the development of new anticonvulsants, twenty three 1-(2- arylhydrazinecarboxamido)-2, 2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate derivatives were synthesized and tested for anticonvulsant activity using the maximal electroshock (MES), subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole (scPTZ) screens, which are the most widely employed seizure models for early identification of candidate anticonvulsants. Their neurotoxicity ...
