In this study, a total of twenty chalcones were synthesized via Claisen-Schmidt condensation reaction and evaluated for their in vitro acetylcholinesterase inhibitory activities using Ellman’s method. Molecular docking studies on acetylcholinesterase were performed to elucidate the interactions between these chalcone derivatives and acetylcholinest...

The design of an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor with multifunctional properties became the perspective for the development of an effective drug against Alzheimer's disease. Towards this target, 1-{4-hydroxy-3-[(piperidin-1-yl)methyl]phenyl}ethan-1-one (chalcone 3) was prepared and studied as an acetylcholinesterase inhibitor. The novel chalcone 3 w...
