Abstract

The biological activity of eight 1-oxa-4-aza-2-silacyclanes with the OSiCH2N fragment including 6-membered 2-sila-5-morpholinones (1–3) and 4-acyl-2-silamorpholines (4–6)and previously unknown 7-membered derivatives of salicylic acid (7, 8) was studied. Compounds 1 and 3–6 show the certain antihypoxic action. Compounds 2 (40 mg/kg), 4 (20 mg/kg), 6 (40 mg/kg), 7 (20 mg/kg) and 8 (40 mg/kg) reduce the physical serviceability of intact animals. Compound 1 (20 mg/kg) influences the physical serviceability in a moderate-positive way on the background of chlorophos-poisoning. Compounds 5–8 displayed protective properties against chlorophos-poisoning at the LD50 dose and compounds 2, 4, 5, 7 at the LD100 dose. Influence of compounds 1 and 2 on the emotional-research behavior of mice was studied.
