A series of novel safinamide derivatives were synthesized and biologically evaluated for their anticonvulsant activity against maximal electroshock seizure assay and subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole (s.c. PTZ) screening test. Compound 13b is the most active derivative in s.c. PTZ screening test with an ED50 value lower than that of safinamide by about tenfold. A molecular modeling study, including fitting to sodium channel blockers 3D-pharmacophore model and docking into a branched-chain aminotransferase enzyme active site were consistent with the in vivo results.
