A series of phthalide alkyl tertiary amine derivatives I, II and III [R1 = Me, Et; R = Et, MeO, Bn, 2-MeOBn, 2-Me2NBn] were designed, synthesized and evaluated as potential multi-target agents against Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The results indicated that almost all the compounds I, II and III displayed significant AChE inhibitory and selective activities. Besides, most of the derivatives I, II and III exhibited increased self-induced Aβ1-42 aggregation inhibitory activity compared to the lead compound DL-NBP, and some compounds also exerted good antioxidant activity. Specifically, compound I [R1 = R2 = Et] showed the highest inhibitory potency toward AChE (IC50 = 2.66 nM), which was significantly better than Donepezil (IC50 = 26.4 nM). Moreover, mol. docking studies revealed that compound I [R1 = R2 = Et] was bind to both the catalytic active site and peripheral anionic site of AChE. Furthermore, compound I [R1 = R2 = Et] displayed excellent BBB permeability in-vitro. Importantly, the step-down passive avoidance test indicated that I [R1 = R2 = Et] significantly reversed scopolamine-induced memory deficit in mice. Collectively, these results suggested that I [R1 = R2 = Et] was a potent and selective AChE inhibitor for further anti-AD drug development.
