Abstract
A new series of N-aryl/aralkyl substitued-2"-[(phenylsulfonyl)(piperidin-1-yl)amino]acetamide (7a-k) was synthesized. These derivatives were geared up by the pairing of benzenesulfonyl chloride (4) with 1-aminopiperidine (5) under dynamic pH control in aqueous media to afford parent compound N-(Piperidin-1-yl) benzenesulfonamide (6), followed by the substitution at nitrogen atom with different electrophiles N-aryl/aralkyl-substituted-2-bromoacetamides (3a-k) in the presence of sodium hydride (NaH) and N,N-Dimethylformamide (DMF) to give a new series of N-substituted derivatives of acetamide (7a-k) bearing piperidine moiety. All the synthesized compounds were confirmed on the basis of IR, EIMS and (1)H-NMR spectral data. The synthesized compounds were evaluated against acetylcholinesterase and butyrylcholinesterase (AChE and BChE) respectively and lipoxygenase (LOX) enzymes. Almost all the synthesized compounds displayed promising activity but few of them remained inactive against lipoxygenase enzymes.
