Abstract:
:Novel ethynylphenyl carbonates and carbamates containing carbon- and silicon-based choline mimics were synthesized from their respective phenol and aniline precursors and screened for anticholinesterase and anti-inflammatory activities. All molecules were micromolar inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), with IC50s of 28-86 μM; the carbamates were two-fold more potent than the carbonates. Two of the most potent AChE inhibitors suppressed 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced inflammation by 40%. Furthermore, these molecules have physicochemical properties in the range of other CNS drugs. These molecules have the potential to treat inflammation; they could also dually target Alzheimer's disease through restoration of cholinergic balance and inflammation suppression.
