Abstract:
A series of substituted hydrazones, arbohydrazone, thiocarbohydrazones, carbazate, etc., derived from carissone, a-cyperone and 4,5-dihydrocarissamine, and 4H,5-cyanocarissone have been synthesized. The structure of 4H,5-cyanocarissone has been arrived at through its IR and UV spectral data. Carissone-3- (o-carboxyphenyl )hydrazone, 3,3'-bis-(carissyl) thiocarbohydrazone and carissone-3-N'-homopiperidyl hydrazone exhibit anti zygotic, antimycobacterial and atropine-like spasmolytic activity respectively.
