Abstract

A series of novel α-aminophosphonates bearing furan motif were designed and were synthesized under solvent-free condition and further evaluated for inhibition activity of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE), and antioxidant property. All the synthesized compounds 4(a-h) showed good inhibition against AChE (IC50 = 0.88–4.46 µM) and BuChE (IC50 = 2.30–18.59 µM). Compound 4c was found to have maximum inhibitory potential against AChE with IC50 = 0.884 ± 0.002 µM while IC50 = 2.297 ± 0.091µM BuChE, suggesting that the synthesized compound are dual-inhibitors. Molecular docking studies suggested that the compound binds to both peripheral anionic site and catalytic anionic site which corroborate with the results obtained in kinetic inhibition suggesting a mixed-type inhibition. Predicted ADME showed good drug-likeness properties. Further, antioxidant activity using DPPH radical was performed; it was observed that all the compounds showed promising antioxidant activity. The highest antioxidant property was exhibited by compound 4c with IC50 value 30.04 when compared to ascorbic acid.
