Abstract

A library of novel, highly functionalized spiropyrrolidines has been synthesized stereoselectively for the first time in ionic liquid medium employing [3+2] cycloaddition of a series of 2-arylmethylidene-5,6-dimethoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-inden-1-ones with an unexplored azomethine ylide derived from acenaphthenequinone or isatin and tryptophan. These compounds were evaluated in vitro for their acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase inhibitory activities. Molecular modelling simulation was performed to determine the binding interaction and orientation of these molecules in the active site gorge of the respective receptors.
