Abstract
for BChE. Moreover, the 250 ns molecular dynamics simulations gave a confirmation of the structural stability and the prolonged existence of the key interactions in the enzyme active sites during the entire time. The findings of this research emphasize compounds 6 and 11 as potential candidates for the creation of strong cholinesterase inhibitors for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease, thus encouraging additional studies.
