title: Pharmacological screening of few new 2-(substituted acetyl) amino-5-alkyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles.
abstract: Nine new 2-(substituted acetyl) amino-5-alkyl-1,3,4-oxadiazoles were synthesised and confirmed on the basis of IR and nitrogen analysis. These were screened for spasmolytic, anti-inflammatory and their effects on blood pressure after determining ALD50. Compounds GK-4 i.e. 2-(diethylaminoacetyl)- amino-5-methyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole and GK-8 i.e. 2-(din-propylamino acetyl)-amino-5-ethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole were found to be spasmolytic. Compound GK-6 i.e. 2-(diethylaminoacetyl)-amino-5-n-propyl-1,3,4-oxadiazole was found to be a potent hypotensive agent with the effect lasting for more than two hours.
