Recent investigations have shown serotonin's stimulatory effect on several types of cancers and carcinoid tumors. Nowadays there has been a significant increase in interest in 5-HT and 5-HT receptors in the context of cancer treatment. The possible role of 5-HTR in the pathogenesis and progression of glioma remains an interesting and relatively unexplored issue.

The study is focused on (2-alkoxy)phenylpiperazine derivatives of 1-(2-hydroxy-3-(4-arylpiperazin-1-yl)propyl)-5,5-diphenylimidazolidine-2,4-dione with alkyl or ester substituents at N3 of hydantoin ring, as well as a new designed and synthesized series of compounds with a free N3H group or N3-acetic acid terminal fragment. The compounds were assessed on their affinity for 5-HT(1A) and α(1)-adrenoceptors and evaluated in functional bioassays for antagonistic properties. Classical molecular mechanics (MMFFs force field, MCMM, MacroModel) and DFT methods (B3LYP functional, Gaussian 0.

A series of twenty new N-[(4-arylpiperazin-1-yl)-propyl]-2-aza-spiro[4.4]nonane- and [4.5]decane-1,3-dione derivatives were synthesized and their anticonvulsant activity was evaluated in maximal electroshock (MES) and sc pentertazole (sc PTZ) tests.
