In the present study, a series of 2-methyl/5-choloro-8-(3-substituted propoxy) quinolines were synthesized. The compounds were characterized by IR, 1H-NMR and elemental analysis. The compounds were investigated for anticonvulsant and decrease in the elevated motor activity by introceptive chemical stimuli (amphetamine antagonistic activity) at the dose level of 80 and 160 mg/kg. Compounds 2, 10, 11, 12 and 13 exhibited significant anticonvulsant and amphetamine antagonistic activity. Compounds 2 and 11 exhibited highest anticonvulsant and amphetamine activity respectively.

D002491 Central Nervous System Agents A class of drugs producing both physiological and psychological effects through a variety of mechanisms. They can be divided into "specific" agents, e.g., affecting an identifiable molecular mechanism unique to target cells bearing receptors for that agent, and "nonspecific" agents, those producing effects on different target cells and acting by diverse molecular mechanisms. Those with nonspecific mechanisms are generally further classed according to whether they produce behavioral depression or stimulation. Those with specific mechanisms are classed by locus of action or specific therapeutic use.

D000661 Amphetamine A powerful central nervous system stimulant and sympathomimetic. Amphetamine has multiple mechanisms of action including blocking uptake of adrenergics and dopamine, stimulation of release of monamines, and inhibiting monoamine oxidase. Amphetamine is also a drug of abuse and a psychotomimetic. The l- and the d,l-forms are included here. The l-form has less central nervous system activity but stronger cardiovascular effects. The d-form is DEXTROAMPHETAMINE.

D000697 Central Nervous System Stimulants A loosely defined group of drugs that tend to increase behavioral alertness, agitation, or excitation. They work by a variety of mechanisms, but usually not by direct excitation of neurons. The many drugs that have such actions as side effects to their main therapeutic use are not included here.
