Abstract

The purpose of this research is directed towards the synthesis and evaluation of novel agents for the treatment of a variety of neurological disorders. In the past, the phenothiazine nucleus has been thoroughly investigated for various biological activities. The oxadiazole substituted phenothiazine has piqued interest as a potential treatment for a variety of neurological disorders. In light of these findings, researchers attempted to synthesise substituted phenothiazine and test them for anticonvulsant activity. Strychnine and 4-aminopyridine mediated models were used to test the anti-convulsant efficacy of synthesised compounds. These compounds can be used for ligand based drug designing purpose by which exact molecular mechanism responsible for showing anti-convulsant effect can be explored in future.
