Synthesis and antihepatotoxic activity of 2-(substituted-phenyl)-5-(2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxane-2-yl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives.
Novel 1,3,4-oxadizole derivatives containing the 1,4-dioxane ring system were synthesised starting from 2,3-dihydro-1,4-benzodioxane-2-carbohydrazide. The synthesised compounds were evaluated for antihepatotoxic activity against CCl₄-induced hepatotoxicity in rats. Some compounds demonstrated a significant antihepatotoxic activity comparable to the standard drug Silymarin.
