The article presents the study of psycho- and neurotropic properties of novel 3-(N-R,R'-aminomethyl)-2-methyl-1H-quinolin-4-ones . The research was carried out using the open field test, elevated plus maze, rotarod test, tail suspension test, passive avoidance test after scopolamine-induced amnesia and acute normobaric hypoxia with hypercapnia. As a result, two promising substances have been found. According to our results 3-[[(4-methoxyphenyl)amino]methyl]-2-methyl-1H-quinolin-4-one in the dose of 10 mg/kg shows a specific sedative effect and a considerable anti-amnesic activity. The most interesting N-[(2-methyl-4-oxo-1H-quinolin-3-yl)methyl]-N-phenylbenzamide (100 mg/kg) combines a potent anti-anxiety action, the anti-amnesic activity and a considerable antihypoxic effect. They are of interest for further profound studies as promising psychoactive compounds.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
