Abstract
16 2-(6-bromo-2,3-dioxoindolin-1-yl)-N-substituted phenylacetamide derivatives were synthesized. The chemical structures of the compounds were proved by IR, 1H-NMR, 13C-NMR, Mass spectrometric data and microanalyses. The antidepressant activities of the compounds were investigated by Porsolt’s behavioural despair (the forced swimming test) in mice. 2-(6-bromo-2,3-dioxoi-ndolin-1-yl)-N-(2-fluorophenyl)acetamide(4f), 2-(6-bromo-2,3-dioxoindolin-1-yl)-N-(3-chlorophenyl)acetamide(4j), 2-(6-bromo-2,3-dioxoindolin-1-yl)-N-(4-bromophenyl)acetamide(4m) reduced 54.9–44.6% duration of immobility times at 100 mg · kg−1 dose level. Anticonvulsant activities were determined by substances pentylenetetrazloe(metrazol)(anti-PTZ) test, and neurotoxicities were determined by the rotarod toxicity test in mice. 12 synthesized compounds were found protective against PTZ at 100 mg ∙ kg−1 dose level.
