A series of new biphenyl bis-sulfonamide derivatives 2a-3p were synthesized in good to excellent yield (76-98%). The inhibitory potential of the synthesized compounds on acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) was investigated. Most of the screened compounds showed modest in vitro inhibition for both AChE and BChE. Compared to the reference compound eserine (IC50 0.04 +/- 0.0001 mu M for AChE) and (IC50 0.85 +/- 0.0001 mu M for BChE), the IC50 values of these compounds were ranged from 2.27 +/- 0.01 to 123.11 +/- 0.04 mu M for AChE and 7.74 +/- 0.07 to < 400 mu M for BuChE. Among the tested compounds, 3p was found to be the most potent against AChE (IC50 2.27 +/- 0.01 mu M), whereas 3g exhibited the highest inhibition for BChE (IC50 7.74 +/- 0.07 mu M). Structure-activity relationship (SAR) of these compounds was developed and elaborated with the help of molecular docking studies. (C) 2015 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
