Discovery of tricyclic benzo[4,5]imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole-3-hydroxyindolin-2-one hybrids as selective MAO-B and cholinesterase inhibitors
A series of 13 novel 3-hydroxyindolin-2-one-benzo[4,5]imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole hybrids was designed, synthesized, and evaluated as potential anti-Alzheimer agents targeting monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B) and cholinesterases. The target compounds were obtained by condensing a benzo[4,5]imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole-based ketone wit...
