Abstract | ||
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is one of the most prevalent neurodegenerative disorder. While pathological hallmarks of this disorder are known, the exact cause of AD remains unclear. Quinazoline was found to be a promising scaffold for the design and development of Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors. In this study we report the synthesis of 1'-methyl-3', 4'-dihydro1'H-spiro[cyclopentane-1, 2'-quinazoline] (4) in 73.3% yield. The structure of compound 4 was confirmed with GC-MS, 1H and 13C-NMR. Acetylcholine esterase inhibition was studied virtually with docking into AChE active site and suggests potential use of 4 as a promising scaffold for acetylcholine esterase inhibitor design which might be useful for Alzheimer’s disease. | ||
