Abstract

BACKGROUND: Searching for substances with high analgesic activity is one of the main problems of modern medicine.

NMDA receptors present in all areas of the central nervous system responsible for reaction on pain stimulation. Moreover, peripheral glutamate receptors may be directly involved in the genesis of pain reactions. Therefore, it is of interest to search for new analgesics among NMDA receptor ligands.

AIM: To develop a preparative method of synthesis and to investigate the antinociceptive activity of 1,2-dialkyl imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acids (4,5-IDC) bis-methylamides on the example of 2-propyl-1-ethylimidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid bis-methylamide.

MATHERIALS AND METHODS: 1-Ethyl-2-propyl-4,5-IDC bis-methylamide was obtained using methods of organic synthesis. The Gaffner test of mechanical irritation of the base of the tail and the hot water tail-flick test in mice were selected to study the antinociceptive activity.

RESULTS: It was shown that the amidation of 2-substituted 4,5-IDC dimethyl ether followed by the alkylation of the resulting 2-substituted 4,5-IDC bis-amide is а preferable method of the two alternative for obtaining of 1,2-dialkyl 4,5-IDC bis-amides. It was shown that 1-ethyl-2-propyl-4,5-IDC bis-methylamide exhibits pronounced antinociceptive activity exceeding the activity of the comparative drugs analgin and ketorolac.

CONCLUSIONS: A preparative method for the synthesis of 1,2-dialkyl-4,5-IDC bis-amides is proposed. The dose-dependent antinociceptive activity of 1-ethyl-2-propyl-4,5-IDC bis-methylamide was shown. 1-ethyl-2-propyl-4,5-IDC bis-methylamide exhibits antinociceptive activity exceeding the activity of analgin and ketorolac.
