The design, synthesis, and rapid evaluation of a new class of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors related to donepezil are reported. A molecular dynamics simulation of the complex between AChE and one representative compound of the series showed a possible inhibitor binding mode in which favorable interactions are formed between the benzylpiperidinone moiety and some active-site residues. The biochemical evaluation of this newly synthesized series was performed using a chemiluminescent method suitable for high-throughput screening.

Several difluoroalkylpyrroliccompounds with different functional groups have been synthesized by the reaction of DAST ((diethylamino)sulfurtrifluoride) with the corresponding NH protected acylpyrroles in 68–87% yields. It was found that NH protection was necessary to make the reactions successful.
