A series of substituted (ω-aminoalkoxy)stilbene derivatives has been synthesized and screened for anticonvulsant activity. The effect of structural modification of these molecules on the activities has been systematically examined. Potent anticonvulsant activity was displayed by 2-[4-(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)butoxy]stilbene and some 2-[4-(3-alkoxy-1-piperidino)butoxy]stilbene derivatives, as determined by maximal electroshock seizure (MES) and pentylenetetrazol-induced convulsion tests in mice. One of these derivatives exhibited more potent anti-MES activity than diphenylhydantoin and carbamazepine in further pharmacological tests in rats, and its therapeutic index was superior to those of two antiepileptic drugs.
