title: Structure-activity relationships of cyclic acetylcholine analogues of the piperidinol and thiacyclohexanol series.
abstract: The hydrochlorides and methiodides of 1-methyl-3- and 4-acetoxypiperidine and their sulphonium analogues are cholinergic agonists. They are substrates for acetylcholinesterase. The sulphonium compounds have a 78(-524)-fold higher activity than its nitrogen analogues.
