    Abstract:
    A series of novel 1-substituted-4-(4-substituted phenyl)-4H-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinazolin-5-ones was synthesized by the cyclization of 2-hydrazino-3-(4-substituted phenyl)-3H-quinazolin-4-one with various one-carbon donors. The starting material, 2-hydrazino-3-(4-substituted phenyl)-3H-quinazolin-4-one, was synthesized from 4-substituted aniline by a novel innovative route. When tested for in-vivo H1-antihistamine activity on conscious guinea-pigs, all the test compounds significantly protected the animals against histamine-induced bronchospasm. The compound 1-methyl-4-(4-chloro phenyl)-4H-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinazolin-5-one (VII) was more potent (72.71% protection), and 1-methyl-4-(4-methoxy phenyl)-4H-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]quinazolin-5-one (II) was equipotent (71% protection), when compared with the reference standard, chlorpheniramine maleate (71% protection). Compounds II and VII showed negligible sedation (5% and 8% respectively) when compared with chlorpheniramine maleate (25%). Compounds II and VII could serve as prototype molecules for further development as a new class of H1-antihistamines.
