Structure-Activity Study on Anticonvulsant (Thio) Hydantoins Using Molecular Connectivity Indices

Abstract: The relationship between molecular connectivity indices and anticonvulsant activity of a series of hydantoin/thiohydantoin analogs has been investigated. The values of molecular connectivity index and valence molecular connectivity index of 82 compounds were computed and active ranges were identified. The activity assigned to each analog using these topological descriptors was subsequently compared with the reported activity against maximal electroshock convulsions. Predictions with high degree of accuracy wer… Show more

“…Melting points were measured on a hot stage Boetius apparatus and are uncorrected. The 1 H nmr and 13 C nmr spectra were acquired on a Bruker 500 apparatus, using CDCl 3 (for 1 -6, 10, and 11) or D M S O -d 6 (for 9, 1 2 -1 9) and TMS as internal standard. Coupling constants are given in Hz.…”

“…2-Thiohydantoins, in common with their 2-oxo analogs, have interesting pharmacological activity [1-3], technical applications [4,5] and properties [6,7]. Investigations on these compounds is less active in comparison to hydantoins due to their difficult synthesis and higher toxicity.…”

“…Great progress has been made in experimental and theoretical investigations of the protonation and deprotonation of heterocyclic compounds. [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29] Most of these studies have been carried out to predict the correct protonation and deprotonation sites and the possible role played by the protonation and deprotonation process in the isomerization process.…”

“…These include Wieners index [4,5], Balabans index [6], Hosoyas index [7], molecular connectivity indices [8] and eccentric connectivity index [9 -12]. Use of topological indices in structure-activity relationship studies seems to play an important role in situations where biological activity is determined predominantly by topological architecture of molecular structure, i.e., where simple connectivity among neighboring atoms, without considering the chemical nature of atom or nature of chemical bonding, may be the major determinant of biological activity of a molecule [13].…”
