1,4-Diazabicyclononanes (13 - 20), 1,4-diazabicyclodecanes (21 - 28), 1,4-diazabicycloundecanes (29 - 34), 1,4-diazabicyclononan-5-ones (37 - 41) and 1,4-diazabicyclodecan-5-ones (42 - 44) having alkyl and acyl substituents at 4-position have been synthesized and evaluated for their filaricidal activity against Litomasoides carinii infection in cotton rats.Except 4-diethylcarbamoyl-1,4-diazabicyclononane (13), which exhibits significant activity, being about 3/5th as active as the standard diethylcarbamazine (DEC), none of the other compounds shows any activity against adult worms.The results have been rationalised in terms of critical bulk around the N-1 of the piperazine ring of DEC.From this work and earlier published results it appears that both axial and equatorial N-CH3 bonds in DEC are acceptable for activity.
