Popis: Phosphorylation of suitable piperidine precursors yielded a series of novel decalin-type O,N,P-heterocycles. The title compounds, P(3)-axially and P(3)-equatorially X-substituted, cis- and trans-configurated 2,4-dioxa-7-aza-, 2,4-dioxa-8-aza-, and 2,4-dioxa-9-aza-3-phosphabicyclo[4.4.0]decane 3-oxides (X=Cl, F, 4-nitrophenoxy, and 2,4-dinitrophenoxy), are configuratively fixed and conformationally constrained P-analogues of acetylcholine and as such represent acetylcholine (7-aza and 9-aza isomers) or γ-homo-acetylcholine mimetics (8-aza isomers). Being irreversible inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), the compounds are considered to be suitable probes for the investigation of the stereochemical course of the inhibition reaction by 31P-NMR spectroscopy. Moreover, the design of these mimetics will enable studies of molecular interactions with AChE, in particular, the recognition conformation of acetylcholine.
