  • Title: Homobivalent quinazolinimines as novel nanomolar inhibitors of cholinesterases with dirigible selectivity toward butyrylcholinesterase.
    Author: Decker M.
    Journal: J Med Chem; 2006 Sep 07; 49(18):5411-3. PubMed ID: 16942014.
    Abstract:
    Homobivalent dimers of quinazolinimines, which bridge the imine nitrogen atoms via a hepta- and an octamethylene spacer, with different ring sizes of the alicycles were synthesized from the corresponding quinazolinethiones. The resulting compounds show >100-fold increase of inhibitory activities compared to related monomeric compounds yielding low-nanomolar inhibitors. For heptamethylene dimers, mixed inhibition profiles were obtained, whereas for the octamethylene compounds selectivity toward butyrylcholinesterase (>180) can be achieved with an eight-membered alicycle.
