We present a concept termed “deprotective functionalization”, which we have applied to the coupling of Nms-protected amines with carboxylicacids. Notably, this approach circumvents the need for a dedicated amine-deprotection step and obviates the use of additional reagents for carboxylate activation. The reaction was shown to be, in many cases, superior to deprotection followed by functionalization
discovered non-classical acetylcholinesterase (AChE) function, dual binding-site AChE inhibitors have acquired a paramount attention of drug designing researchers. The unique structural arrangements of AChE peripheral anionic site (PAS) and catalytic site (CAS) joined by a narrow gorge, prompted us to design the inhibitors that can interact with dualbindingsites of AChE. Eighteen homo- and heterodimers of
