Anticonvulsant properties of some new derivatives of phensuccinimide. 1979

S Rump, and I Ilczuk, and K Walczyna

Anticonvulsant properties of two new derivatives, of phenylsuccinimide, N-morpholinomethyl-3-bromophenyl-succinimide(IL-7) and N-amino-3-bromophenylsuccinimide (IL-16), were studied. It was stated that both compounds have similar acute toxicity and act longer than phensuximide. They are especially active in maximal electroshock seizure (MES) test. Their effectiveness against convulsions produced by pentetrazole is less than that of phensuximide. Their effectiveness against procaine and strychnine is similar, only one of tested compounds has very high potency against strychnine. This compound, IL-16, has also a different pattern of effect-time which is probably due to its different pharmacokinetic behaviour.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007928 Lethal Dose 50 The dose amount of poisonous or toxic substance or dose of ionizing radiation required to kill 50% of the tested population. LD50,Dose 50, Lethal
D010433 Pentylenetetrazole A pharmaceutical agent that displays activity as a central nervous system and respiratory stimulant. It is considered a non-competitive GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID antagonist. Pentylenetetrazole has been used experimentally to study seizure phenomenon and to identify pharmaceuticals that may control seizure susceptibility.
