Design, synthesis and biological evaluation of novel tetrahydroacridine pyridine-aldoxime and-amidoxime hybrids as efficient uncharged reactivators of nerve agent- …
Abstract A series of new uncharged functional acetylcholinesterase (AChE) reactivators including heterodimers of tetrahydroacridine with 3-hydroxy-2-pyridine aldoximes and amidoximes has been synthesized. These novel molecules display in vitro reactivation potencies towards VX-, tabun-and paraoxon-inhibited human AChE that are superior to those of the mono-and bis-pyridinium aldoximes currently used against nerve agent and ...
