A series of 1,4-piperazine derivatives was synthesized and evaluated for anticonvulsant activity in the maximal electroshock seizure (MES) and subcutaneous pentylenetetrazole seizure threshold (ScMet) assays and for neurotoxicity (TOX). The compounds were only moderately effective. The anticonvulsant activity was accompanied by neurotoxicity. 1-[(4-Chlor-3-methylphenoxy)-acetyl]-4-(2-methoxyphe...

The title compound, C25H33BrN2O4, was synthesized from 9α-hy-droxy-parthenolide (9α-hy-droxy-4,8-dimethyl-12-methylen-3,14-dioxa-tri-cyclo-[9.3.0.0(2,4)]tetra-dec-7-en-13-one), which was isolated from the chloro-form extract of the aerial parts of Anvillea radiata. The mol-ecule is built up from two fused five- and ten-membered rings with an additional ep-oxy ring system and a bromo-phenyl-pipe...

Piperazine ranks within the top three most utilized N-heterocyclic moieties in FDA-approved small-molecule pharmaceuticals. Herein we summarize the current synthetic methods available to perform C-H functionalization on piperazines in order to lend structural diversity to this privileged drug scaffold. Multiple approaches such as those involving α-lithiation trapping, transition-metal-catalyzed...

The Anthelmintic activities of different extracts of aerial parts of Cynodon dactylon Pers were evaluated separately on adult Indian earthworm (Pheritima posthuma). It was found that petroleum ether (PECD), chloroform (CECD), ethanol (EECD), aqueous extract (AECD) of C. dactylon showed anthelmintic activities at the concentration of 5 mg/ml of each. The anthelmintic effects of PECD, CECD, EECD ...

The reactions of mono(cyclopentadienyl)titanium(IV) trichloride and bis(cyclopentadienyl)titanium(IV)/ zirconium(IV) dichloride with a new class of dithiosemicarbazone, derived by condensing piperazine dithiosemicarbazide with benzaldehyde (L(1)H(2)), 2-chlorobenzaldehyde (L(2)H(2)), 4-nitrobenzaldehyde (L(3)H(2)) or salicylaldehyde (L(4)H(4)) have been studied and different types of binuclear ...

Mean serum concentrations of oestradiol-17beta, oestrone, and oestrone sulphate in postmenopausal women were the same when measured up to six hours after treatment with either piperazine oestrone sulphate 1.5 mg or oestradiol valerate 2 mg. Maximum concentrations of oestradiol were less than those of oestrone, but oestrone sulphate reached concentrations about 30 times higher than those of oest...

Methanol extracts from the leaves and stems of Euphorbia microphylla Linn milii were investigated for their activity against Fasciola gigantica, Taenia solium Pheritima pasthuma, respectively. Five concentrations (10–100mg/ml) each extract studied in bioassay, which involved determination time paralysis death worms. All exhibited con-siderable anthelmintic activities, order sensitivity to worms...

In the present study, the petroleum ether and alcoholic extract of Morinda citrifolia L. (Noni) leaves were subjected to preliminary screening for antimicrobial and anthelmintic activity. The alcoholic extract exhibited significant anti bacterial, antifungal activity, comparable to the standard drug tetracycline. The petroleum ether and alcoholic extract were evaluated for Anthelmintic activity...

The ethanolic extract of the plant Pistia stratiotes (Araceae) was investigated for activity against Indian earthworms Pheretima posthuma and nematode Ascardi galli. Various concentrations (10, 20, 50 mg/ml) of ethanolic extract were tested, which involved determination of time of paralysis and time of death of the worms. It was compared with Piperazine citrate (15 mg/ml) and Albendazole (20 mg...

Objective: The objective of the present study was to formulate piperazine citrate tablets using natural aloe vera gum as a binding agent and evaluate tablets. Methods: extracted used for preparation tablets, characteristics are compared with an equivalent amount acacia sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (NaCMC) in different formulations Three batches were prepared (F1), NaCMC (F2), (F3) agents. ass...
