Drug-1,3,4-Thiadiazole Conjugates as Novel Mixed-Type Inhibitors of Acetylcholinesterase: Synthesis, Molecular Docking, Pharmacokinetics, and ADMET Evaluation
reference drug (neostigmine methyl sulfate; IC50 2186.5 ± 98.0 nM). Kinetic studies were performed to elucidate the mode of inhibition of the enzyme, and the compounds showed mixed-type mechanisms for inhibiting AChE. The Ki of 3b (0.0031 µM) indicates that it can be very effective, even at low concentrations. Compounds 3a–3i all complied with Lipinski’s Rule of Five, and showed high drug-likeness scores
