2-methylpyridinium 5-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-6-oxo-2-thioxo-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyrimidin-4-olate: Synthesis, crystal structure, and biological evaluation

详细

The titled complex is synthesized from the ethanolic solutions of 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene, 2-thiobarbituric acid, and 2-methylpyridine and characterized by spectral and elemental analyses. The single crystal X-ray diffraction results for the complex are compatible with the spectral observations. The titled complex exhibits anticonvulsant activity and reduces all phases of convulsion even at a low dosage. Acute toxicity studies of the complex are performed to understand the safer dose concentration for clinical trials.
