New tacrine-huperzine A hybrids (huprines): highly potent tight-binding acetylcholinesterase inhibitors of interest for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease.
Several new 12-amino-6,7,10,11-tetrahydro-7, 11-methanocycloocta[b]quinoline derivatives (tacrine-huperzine A hybrids, huprines) have been synthesized and tested as acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors. All of the new compounds contain either a methyl or ethyl group at position 9 and one or two (chloro, fluoro, or methyl) substituents at positions 1, 2, or 3. Among the monosubstituted derivat...
متن کاملDFT Studies and Topological Analyses of Electron Density on Acetophenone and Propiophenone Thiosemicarbazone Derivatives as Covalent Inhibitors of Falcipain-2, a Major Plasmodium Falciparum Cysteine Protease
Thiosemicarbazones (TSCs) possess significant antimalarial properties believed to be linked to the inhibition of major cysteine proteases, such as falcipain-2, in Plasmodium falciparum. However, the binding modes of TSCs to the active site of these enzymes are not clear. As a result of this, the nature of the bonding interactions between the active site of falcipain-2 and different derivatives ...
متن کاملComputational Investigation on Structural Properties of Carbon Nanotube Binding to Nucleotides According to the QM Methods
The interaction between nucleotides and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is a subjectof many investigations for treating diseases but there are many questions in this field thatremain unanswered. Because of experimental methods involve assumptions andinterpretation besides limitations, there are many problems that the best study for them isusing theoretical study. Consequently, t...
متن کاملTheoretical investigation of the implicit effects water molecules and resonance interactions on structural stability and NMR tensors of hallucinogenic harmine by density functional calculations
Abstractl Density functional theory (DFT) was used to investigate the effects of intra-moecular interactions and implicit water molecules on the relative stability and the NMR shielding tensors of hallucinogenic harmine in the monomeric and dimeric states. Results represented that the relative stability and the NMR shielding tensors are dependent on the resonance interactions and chemical envir...
متن کاملTheoretical study of tetrahedrane derivatives
Tetrahedrane is most strained and the smallest cage compound. It attracts organic chemists because ofits unusual bonding nature and highly symmetrical structure. However, many efforts to isolate theparent tetrahedrane have been unsuccessful because of the high reactivity and very short lifetimecaused by the strain in this molecule. Modeling of molecules for determination of structuralproperties...
