New 2-(1-Piperazinyl)- and 2-(hexahydro-1H-1,4-diazepin-1-yl)benzothiazoles were prepared and tested as H1- and H3-receptor antagonists. A number of compounds showed weak H1-antagonistic activity, with pA2 values ranging from 5.5 to 6.1. The simple alkyl substituted, 2-[1-(4-methyl and 4-ethyl)piperazinyl] analogues show increasing, moderate H3-antagonistic activity (pA2 = 6.0, and pA2 = 7.0). The compounds with 4-phenylalkyl substitution, for both the piperazinyl and the hexahydro-1H-1,4-diazepin-1-yl homologues series, regardless of the different physicochemical properties of the para substituents at the phenyl ring, showed weak H3-antagonistic activity with pA2 values ranging from 4.4 to 5.6.
