    Abstract:
    A novel series of 9-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroacridine derivatives with 2-fluorobenzoic acid or 3-fluorobenzoic acid moiety were designed, synthesized and evaluated as inhibitors of cholinesterases and aggregation of β-amyloid. In the study target compounds were very potent inhibitors of AChE and BChE. The most promising agents had higher inhibitory potency than the reference drugs which was tacrine. Ultimately, the kinetic assay shows the most active target compound 3c against AChE. Almost all of them were more potent against BChE than AChE. Compound 3c in various concentrations was tested by aggregation experiment. Inhibition of β-amyloid aggregation was 77.32% and 80.43% at 50µM and 100µM, respectively. Therefore, compound 3c is a promising agent for the treatment of AD.
