Abstract :
Two novel 3-amino-5-(4-choloro-2-phenoxyphenyl)-4H-1,2,4-triazole derivatives were prepared and their anticonvulsant activity was measured by evaluation of the ability of these compounds to protect mice against convulsion induced by lethal doses of pentylenetetrazole (PTZ). Diazepam (Sigma) was considered as a positive control drug with anticonvulsant effect [ED50 = 1.2 (0.5-1.9) mg/Kg]. Amongst the compounds tested, compound 3, 3-amino-5- [4-chloro-2-(2-flurophenoxy)phenyl]-4H-1,2,4-triazole, showed potent anticonvulsant activity [ED50 = 1.4 (1.0-2.2) mg/Kg] compared to diazepam
