Alzheimer's disease (AD), a severe neurodegenerative disorder, imposes socioeconomic burdens and necessitates innovative therapeutic strategies. Current therapeutic interventions are limited and underscore the need for novel inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), enzymes implicated in the pathogenesis of AD. In this study, we report a novel synthetic strategy for the generation of 2-aminopyridine derivatives via a two-component reaction converging aryl vinamidinium salts with 1,1-enediamines (EDAMs) in a dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solvent system, catalyzed by triethylamine (EtN).

A novel, green, high-yielding approach was constructed to synthesize spiro indolin-1,2-diazepine derivatives through a cascade reaction of different isatins, malononitrile and 1,1-enediamines (EDAMs) via sequential four-component reactions to produce the target compounds with good to excellent yields. Next the inhibitory potencies of all derivatives were determined spectroscopically at 415 nm using the modified Ellman method.

In this context, a highly efficient, one-pot, sequential, multi-component synthesis of a diverse range of polysubstituted pyrroles was developed through a sequential domino strategy by the condensation of amines with 1,1-bis(methylthio)-2-nitroethene (BMTNE), Knovenagle reaction of arylglyoxals with malono derivatives and subsequent Michael addition and intramolecular cyclization reaction in EtOH at reflux. Thirty-nine synthesized compounds were evaluated as AChE and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibitors.

Multicomponent reaction of substituted phenylene diamines, ninhydrin, malononitrile and N,N'-substituted-2-nitroethene-1,1-diamines produced the target compounds. Twelve new spiroindenoquinoxalines were obtained, and their ability in inhibition of acetyl and butyrylcholinesterases were investigated both in vitro and in silico.
