Abstract:
:Analogs of pralidoxime, which is a commercial antidote for intoxication from neurotoxic organophosphorus compounds, were designed, synthesized, characterized, and tested as potential inhibitors or reactivators of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) using the Ellman's test, nuclear magnetic resonance, and molecular modeling. These analogs include 1-methylpyridine-2-carboxaldehyde hydrazone, 1-methylpyridine-2-carboxaldehyde guanylhydrazone, and six other guanylhydrazones obtained from different benzaldehydes. The results indicate that all compounds are weak AChE reactivators but relatively good AChE inhibitors. The most effective AChE inhibitor discovered was the guanylhydrazone derived from 2,4-dinitrobenzaldehyde and was compared with tacrine, displaying similar activity to this reference material. These results indicate that guanylhydrazones as well as future similar derivatives may function as drugs for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
