Palladium/BuAd<sub>2</sub>P efficiently catalyzed the direct α-arylation of ketone in the anti-Alzheimer's disease drug donepezil, leading to 15 aryldonepezil analogues exhibiting high selective inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE). The cell-based assays revealed that the 3-methylpridinyl analogue (<b>12</b>) shows significantly lower toxicity compared to donepezil and remarkable neuroprotective activity against H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub>-induced damage in SH-SY5Y cells. Docking results of ...[more]
