Abstract

Ajeet, Arvind Kumar and Mishra AK

A series of substituted 4-amino-benzene sulfonamides were designed, keeping in view the structural requirement of pharmacophore. Lipinski rule of five has also been calculated; failure to Lipinski rule was not observed. The synthesized compounds were evaluated for anticonvulsant. Docking was performed through AutoDock Vina. Molecules have been screened out through docking. Compounds were synthesized and characterized through IR, 1HNMR, 13C NMR, Mass and elemental analysis. The anticonvulsant activity of the synthesized compounds was assessed using the MES model. In-silico biological activity spectrum, toxicological studies, predicted oral rat LD50 and possible mechanism of action were investigated. The compound, 4-[2-(4-Acetyl-phenylamino)-ethyl]-benzenesulfonamide (K23) is found most active among the synthesized compounds.
