Synthesis and anticholinesterase activities of novel 1,3,4-thiadiazole based compounds.
In the present study, new (1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)benzene-1,3-diol based compounds have been synthesized and their potential anticholinesterases properties have been investigated using the modified of Ellman's spectrophotometric method. The compounds were obtained by the reaction of hydrazides or thiosemicarbazides with aryl-modified sulfinylbis[(2,4-dihydroxyphenyl)methanethione]s. Their chemical structures were elucidated by IR, (1)H-NMR, (13)C-NMR and EI-MS spectral data and elemental analyses. Most of the compounds acted as acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) inhibitors in vitro, with IC₅₀ values ranging from >500 to 0.053 μM and from >500 to 0.105 μM, respectively. The most potent compound 9 (IC₅₀ = 0.053 μM) proved to be selective toward AChE, exhibiting selectivity ratios versus BuChE of ca. 950. The kinetic studies showed that it is a mixed-type of AChE inhibitor. Another compound (2) was active against both enzymes with IC₅₀ values in the low nM range. The structure-activity relationships (SARs) of the compounds under consideration were discussed.
