| pubmed-article:3783589 | pubmed:abstractText | The synthesis and anticonvulsant activity of a series of 2-aryl-5-hydrazino-1,3,4-thiadiazoles are described. The combination of preferred aromatic substituents in the 2-position coupled with alkyl substitution on the hydrazine moiety led to a number of potent compounds lacking sedation, ataxia, or lethality. 5-(2-Biphenylyl)-2-(1-methylhydrazino)-1,3,4-thiadiazole (4m) represents a new class of anticonvulsant agent and compares favorably with the standard drugs phenytoin, phenobarbital, and carbamazepine. | lld:pubmed |
