Abstract

Three 5(p-trimethylsilylphenyl)barbiturates and one related thiobarbiturate were prepared starting from ptrimethylsilylphenylacetic acid, which was converted to diethyl alkyl-p-trimethylsilylphenylmalonates and condensed with urea or thiourea. Preliminary pharmacological evaluation of these barbiturates, as well as of two 5-(p-trimethylsilylbenzyl)barbiturates, showed them to have low sedative activity. Some of the compounds showed anticonvulsant activity.
