Synthesis of 2‐(2‐oxo‐2 H ‐chromen‐4‐yl)acetamides as potent acetylcholinesterase inhibitors and molecular insights into binding interactions
Sixteen novel coumarin-based compounds are reported as potent acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors. The most active compound in this series, 5a (IC50 0.04 ± 0.01 µM), noncompetitively inhibited AChE with a higher potency than tacrine and galantamine. Compounds 5d, 5j, and 5 m showed a moderate ant...
