2-(Isopentylamino)naphthalene-1,4-dione is a vitamin K analog.1It inhibits spasms induced by pentylenetetrazole and tonic hindlimb extension induced by maximal electroshock (MES) in mice (ED50s = 349.2 and 108.1 mg/kg, respectively). It also protects mice against seizures in the 6 Hz psychomotor seizure test (ED50s = 152.7 and 263.7 mg/kg at stimulus intensities of 32 and 44 mA, respectively). 1.Li, X., Himes, R.A., Prosser, L.C., et al.Discovery of the first vitamin K analogue as a potential treatment of pharmacoresistant seizuresJ.
