Novel Sulfonamide-Based Carbamates as Selective Inhibitors of BChE.

ABSTRACT: A series of 14 target benzyl [2-(arylsulfamoyl)-1-substituted-ethyl]carbamates was prepared by multi-step synthesis and characterized. All the final compounds were tested for their ability to inhibit acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) in vitro, and the selectivity index (SI) was determined. Except for three compounds, all compounds showed strong preferential inhibition of BChE, and nine compounds were even more active than the clinically used rivastigmine. Benzyl {(2S)-1-[(2-methoxybenzyl)sulfamoyl]-4-methylpentan-2-yl}carbamate (5k), benzyl {(2S)-1-[(4-chlorobenzyl)sulfamoyl]-4-methylpentan-2-yl}carbamate (5j), and benzyl [(2S)-1-(benzylsulfamoyl)-4-methylpentan-2-yl]carbamate (5c) showed the highest BChE inhibition (IC
