We prepared phthalazine -1,4 (2H, 3H) dione (1) from phthalic anhydride and hydrazine hydrate. The compound (1) reacted with alcoholic potassium hydroxide, we obtained on
compound (2) (the potassium salt of phthalazine -1,4 (2H, 3H) dione. Also we synthesized acetanilide derivatives (3) from aniline derivatives with chloroacetyl chloride. Then we reacted the compound (2) with the compounds (3) resulted compounds (4a-q) which tested some of them (some new compounds acetanilides) against phenobarbitone as standard reference drug as anticonvulsant agents, some of these new compounds revealed promising anticonvulsant activity.
