Quinazolinedione sulfonamides: A novel class of competitive AMPA receptor antagonists with oral activity

Quinazoline-2,4-diones with a sulfonamide group attached to the N(3) ring atom constitute a novel class of competitive AMPA receptor antagonists. One of the synthesized compounds, 28, shows nanomolar receptor affinity, whereas other examples of the series display oral anticonvulsant activity in animal models.
