A new family of multitarget molecules able to interact with acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE), as well as with monoamino oxidase (MAO) A and B, has been synthesized. Novel compounds have been designed using a conjunctive approach that combines the benzylpiperidine moiety of the AChE inhibitor donepezil, connected through an oligomethylene linker, to a central nitrogen atom substituted with the propargyl moiety responsible for the MAO inhibition, and a 8-hydroxy-5-methylaminoquinoline functional group, the biometal pro-chelator motif. Overall, the results suggest that the new compounds are promising multitarget drug candidates with potencial impact for AD therapy.
