Synthesis and properties of tetra(hexa)hydropyrazolo [1,2-a]pyrido[3,4-d]pyridazine derivatives.

The synthesis of tetra(hexa)hydropyrazolo[1,2-a]pyrido[3,4-d]pyridazine derivatives (14-21) and the results of pharmacological screening are described in this paper. All compounds tested were non-toxic and showed a significant analgesic action. The analgesic effects were associated with the suppression of the spontaneous locomotor activity. Furthermore most of the synthesized compounds displayed a weak antimycobacterial action in the preliminary screening.
