Received December 11, 2018; accepted April 24, 2019 In our search for novel orally active α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptor antagonists, we found that conversion of an allyl group in the lead compound 2-[allyl(4-methyl- phenyl)amino]-4H-pyrido[3,2-e][1,3]thiazin-4-one (4) to a 2-cyanoethyl group significantly increased in- hibitory activity against AMPA receptor-mediated kainate-induced toxicity in rat hippocampal cultures. Here, we synthesized 10 analogs bearing a 2-cyanoethyl group and administered them to mice to evaluate their anticonvulsant activity in maximal electroshock (MES)- and pentylenetetrazol (PTZ)-induced seizure tests, and their effects on motor coordination in a rotarod test. 3-{(4-Oxo-4H-pyrido[3,2-e][1,3]thiazin- 2-yl)[4-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]amino}propanenitrile (25) and 3-[(2,2-difluoro-2H-1,3-benzodioxol-5-yl)- (4-oxo-4H-pyrido[3,2-e][1,3]thiazin-2-yl)amino]propanenitrile (27) exhibited potent anticonvulsant activity in both seizure tests and induced minor motor disturbances as indicated in the rotarod test. The protective index values of 25 and 27 for MES-induced seizures (10.7 and 12.0, respectively) and PTZ-induced seizures (6.0 and 5.6, respectively) were considerably higher compared with those of YM928 (5) and talampanel (1).

Structures of Lead Compound 4 and YM928 (5) against kainate-induced neurotoxicity focused on the structur- al modification of the allyl group in 4. In previous SAR stud- ies of 1-phenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline derivatives such as 6 (Fig. 3), a noncompetitive AMPA receptor antagonist, Gitto et al. suggested that the acetyl group at the 2-position, which may function as a hydrogen bond acceptor, positively influences AMPA receptor recognition and enhances anti- convulsant activity in some cases.27,28) Based on this finding and the structural similarities between 4 and 6, we designed novel 4H-pyrido[3,2-e][1,3] thiazin-4-one derivatives bearing a cyano group, which possesses hydrogen bond acceptor abil- ity, on an alkyl substituent attached to the 2-amino group.

Glutamate is a principal excitatory neurotransmitter in central nervous system (CNS). It causes strong excitation via activation of receptors at post synaptic membrane and elicits action potential when accumulation of receptor activity is occurred. It is also well recognized that glutamate receptor has a significant role in synaptic plasticity. It is therefore very important neurotransmitter in signal processing in CNS. Perturbation of glutamatergic neurotransmission could elicit various symptoms or diseases including seizures, abnormal movements, sensory abnormality, neuronal degeneration etc (Meldrum, 2000).

The absence epilepsy typical electroencephalographic pattern of sharp spikes and slow waves (SWDs) is considered to be dueto an interaction of an initiation site in the cortex and a resonant circuit in the thalamus. The hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-gated cationic Ih pacemaker channels (HCN) play an important role in the enhanced cortical excitability. The role of thalamic HCN in SWD occurrence is less clear. Absence epilepsy in the WAG/Rij strain is accompanied by deficiency of the activity of dopaminergic system, which weakens the formation of an emotional positive state, causes depression-like symptoms, and counteracts learning and memory processes.
