Conformationally constrained analogues of (Z)-5-decenyl acetate (1), a pheromone component of the turnip moth. Agrotis segetum, have been synthesized and tested by using electrophysiological single-cell recordings. In the constrained analogues the terminal alkyl chain in 1 has been incorporated in a six-membered (3 and 4) or five-membered (6) ring system. These cyclic compounds are also conformationally constrained analogues of the previously deduced bioactive conformations of the corresponding chain-elongated analogues 2 and 5. The electrophysiological activities of the constrained analogues are found to be significantly lower than that of the natural pheromone component 1, most probably due to steric repulsive interactions between the analogue and the receptor, and also lower than the activities of the corresponding chain-elongated analogues of 1. It is concluded that the flexibility of the terminal chains in 2 and 5 is essential for the possibility of the receptor to accommodate these parts of the chain-elongated analogues in their bioactive conformations.

The present work demonstrates the ability of carboxylic acid tethered cyclopropanated oxabenzonorbornadienes (CPOBDs) to undergo ring-opening reactions in mild acidic conditions. The optimized reaction conditions involve the use of pTsOH in DCE at 90 °C. Two regioisomers are formed but the reactions are highly regioselective towards type 3 ring-opened products. It was observed that substitution at the C5 and aryl positions of CPOBD significantly hinders the ring-opening reactions leading to decreased yields of ring-opened products, although high regioselectivity for the Type 3 ring-opened products is still maintained. Herein, the first examples of acid-catalyzed intramolecular ring-opening reactions of CPOBD with carboxylic acid nucleophiles are reported.

A series of phthalide alkyl tertiary amine derivatives were designed, synthesized and evaluated as potential multi-target agents against Alzheimer's disease (AD). The results indicated that almost all the compounds displayed significant AChE inhibitory and selective activities. Besides, most of the derivatives 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-8 showed the highest inhibitory potency toward AChE (IC50 = 2.66 nM), which was significantly better than Donepezil (IC50 = 26.4 nM). Moreover, molecular docking studies revealed that compound I-8 could bind to both the catalytic active site and peripheral anionic site of AChE. Furthermore, compound I-8 displayed excellent BBB permeability in vitro. Importantly, the step-down passive avoidance test indicated that I-8 significantly reversed scopolamine-induced memory deficit in mice. Collectively, these results suggested that I-8 might be a potent and selective AChE inhibitor for further anti-AD drug development.
