Abstract Data relative to the synthesis and anti-convulsant properties of new 5, 6-dihydro- dibenzo [b, e] azepin-6-ones are presented. Structure-activity relationships of various derivatives substituted in positions 5 and 11, as well as the importance of the steric hindrance of the substituents on biological activity are shown.
