Abstract
Aim: To design and synthesize a novel series of 1-aryldonepezil analogues. Materials & methods: The 1-aryldonepezil analogues were synthesized through palladium/PCy3-catalyzed Suzuki reaction and were evaluated for cholinesterase inhibitory activities and neuroprotective effects. In silico docking of the most effective compound was conducted. Results: The 4-tert-butylphenyl analogue exhibited good inhibitory potency against acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase and had a favorable neuroprotective effect on H2O2-induced SH-SY5Y cell injury. Conclusion: The 4-tert-butylphenyl derivative is a promising lead compound for anti-Alzheimer's disease drug development.
