Discovering and developing drugs to treat Alzheimer's disease (AD) have been a crucial target for many decades. According to a large number of later studies, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) plays an important role in AD treatment. On the other hand, flavonoids are natural compounds that possessed a wide variety of bioactivities, including the inhibitory activity on AChE. In this study, we reported the structure and activity relationship of flavone and flavanone derivatives that semi-synthesized and synthesized from flower buds of Styphnolobium japonicum (Leguminosae) and citrus peels against AChE. The results showed that the introducing of the new functional groups that leads to increasing 3-folds better AChE inhibition of compound Q2 and Q4 than that of the original. The molecular docking study was investigated in order to illuminate the experimental results and find their binding modes.

A series of bioactive benzimidazoles were theoretically evaluated for their effect against enteroviruses, particularly coxsackievirus B and coxsackievirus A16. The structure-activity relationship allowed to deduce a very efficient model that can be used as a reference for the synthesis of compounds against this type of virus. The model used is essentially based on the RML and NN method, and its validation was carried out using cross-validation. The results obtained by molecular docking and ADMET of compound 9 as an inhibitor of enterovirus A16 give the proposal of the drug of this series.
