The synthesis of a new series of imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole derivatives is described. They were tested as potential acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase inhibitors by means of a chemiluminescent microassay. Although most of the new compounds did not show significant cholinesterase inhibition potency, three of them displayed selective antiacetylcholinesterase activity in the micromolar range.

D002091 Butyrylcholinesterase An aspect of cholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.8). Pseudocholinesterase,Benzoylcholinesterase,Butyrylthiocholinesterase
D002800 Cholinesterase Inhibitors Drugs that inhibit cholinesterases. The neurotransmitter ACETYLCHOLINE is rapidly hydrolyzed, and thereby inactivated, by cholinesterases. When cholinesterases are inhibited, the action of endogenously released acetylcholine at cholinergic synapses is potentiated. Cholinesterase inhibitors are widely used clinically for their potentiation of cholinergic inputs to the gastrointestinal tract and urinary bladder, the eye, and skeletal muscles; they are also used for their effects on the heart and the central nervous system.
