title: Synthesis of 8-substituted-4-(2/4-substituted phenyl)-2H-[1,3,5]triazino[2,1-b][1,3]benzothiazole-2-thiones and their anticonvulsant, anti-nociceptive, and toxicity evaluation in mice.
abstract: A number of new 8-substituted-4-(2/4-substituted phenyl)-2H-[1,3,5]triazino[2,1-b][1,3]benzothiazole-2-thiones (4a-t) were synthesized and evaluated for their anticonvulsant, anti-nociceptive, hepatotoxic, and neurotoxic properties. The titled compounds (4a-t) were obtained by cyclization of N-{[6-substituted-1,3-benzothiazol-2-yl)amino]carbonothioyl}-2/4-substituted benzamides (3a-t) by refluxing in n-butanol. All the newly synthesized compounds were screened for their anticonvulsant activity in a mouse seizure model and were compared with the standard drug phenytoin. Compounds 4a, 4c, 4f, and 4l showed complete protection after time periods of 0.5 h and 4 h. Some of the selected compounds were evaluated for their neurotoxic and hepatotoxic effects, and none of these showed any sign of neurotoxicity or hepatotoxicity. Compounds 4a-t were also evaluated for their anti-nociceptive activity by a thermal stimulus technique using diclofenac as standard. Compounds 4o, 4q, and 4t displayed highly potent analgesic activity with p < 0.01.
