The purpose of this study was to synthetize the focused library of 34 new piperazinamides of 3-methyl- and 3,3-dimethyl-(2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl)propanoic or butanoic acids as potential new hybrid anticonvulsants. These hybrid molecules join the chemical fragments of well-known antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) such as ethosuximide, levetiracetam, and lacosamide. Compounds 5–38 were prepared in a coupling reaction of the 3-methyl- or 3,3-dimethyl-2-(2,5-dioxopyrrolidin-1-yl)propanoic (1, 2) or butanoic acids (3, 4) with the appropriately substituted secondary amines in the presence of the N,N-carbonyldiimidazole reagent. The initial anticonvulsant screening was performed in mice (ip) using the ‘classical’ maximal electroshock (MES) and subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole (scPTZ) tests as well as in the six-Hertz (6 Hz) model of pharmacoresistant limbic seizures. The acute neurological toxicity was determined applying the chimney test. The broad spectra of activity across the preclinical seizure models in mice ip displayed compounds 7, 15, and 36. The most favorable anticonvulsant properties demonstrated 15 (ED50 MES = 74.8 mg/kg, ED50 scPTZ = 51.6 mg/kg, ED50 6 Hz = 16.8 mg/kg) which showed TD50 = 213.3 mg/kg in the chimney test that yielded satisfying protective indexes (PI MES = 2.85, PI scPTZ = 4.13, PI 6 Hz = 12.70) at time point of 0.5 h. As a result, compound 15 displayed comparable or better safety profile than clinically relevant AEDs: ethosuximide, lacosamide or valproic acid. In the in vitro assays compound 15 was observed as relatively effective binder to the neuronal voltage-sensitive sodium and L-type calcium channels. Beyond the anticonvulsant properties, 6 compounds diminished the pain responses in the formalin model of tonic pain in mice.
