Enantioselective synthesis of novel pyrano[3,2-c]chromene derivatives as AChE inhibitors via an organocatalytic domino reaction
Literature Information

A series of optically active pyrano[3,2-c]chromenes have been synthesized through an asymmetric domino reaction of 4-hydroxy-2H-chromen-2-ones with malononitriles. The targeted molecules were obtained in excellent yields and enantioselectivities (up to 94% yield, 99% ee). The AChE inhibitory activity studies revealed that compounds 4n (IC50 = 21.3 μM) and 4p (IC50 = 19.2 μM) displayed potent acetylcholinesterase inhibition. In most cases, the S-enantiomers were superior to the corresponding R-enantiomers. Moreover, molecular modelling provides a practical method for understanding the enantioselective discrimination of AChE with these kinds of compounds.

Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry (OBC) publishes original and high impact research and reviews in organic chemistry. We welcome research that shows new or significantly improved protocols or methodologies in total synthesis, synthetic methodology or physical and theoretical organic chemistry as well as research that shows a significant advance in the organic chemistry or molecular design aspects of chemical biology, catalysis, supramolecular and macromolecular chemistry, theoretical chemistry, mechanism-oriented physical organic chemistry, medicinal chemistry or natural products. Articles published in the journal should report new work which makes a highly-significant impact in the field. Routine and incremental work is generally not suitable for publication in the journal. More details about key areas of our scope are below. In all cases authors should include in their article clear rationale for why their research has been carried out.
