Synthesis and anticonvulsant activity of sulfonamide derivatives-hydrophobic domain

Abstract

A series of sulphonamide derivatives (1-11) were synthesized in good yield and evaluated for their possible anticonvulsant activity and neurotoxic study. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed on the basis of their spectral data and elemental analysis. Majority of the compounds were active in MES and scPTZ tests. All the compounds were less toxic than the standard drug phenytoin.
