Abstract
A series of amides, structurally related to DM232 (unifiram) and DM235 (sunifiram), characterized by a 1,2,3,4-tetrahydropyrazino[2,1- a]isoindol-6(2 H)-one, 1,4-diamino-cyclohexane or 1,4-diaminobenzene ring, have been synthesized and tested for cognition-enhancing activity in the mouse passive-avoidance test. Some of the compounds display good antiamnesic and procognitive activity, with higher potency than piracetam, while some cyclohexane derivatives are endowed with amnesia inducing properties.
