Analogues of the potent inhibitor of choline acetyltransferase (CAT) (E)-4-(1-naphthylvinyl)pyridine methiodide were synthesized and evaluated for their ability to inhibit CAT and protect against nerve agent intoxication.Several compounds, notably (E)-1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-(1-naphthylvinyl)pyridinium bromide (3), (E)-1-methyl-4-(1-naphthylvinyl)-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine hydrochloride (22), and (E)-1-methyl-4-(1-naphthylvinyl)piperidine hydrochloride (23), were found to afford significant protection against sarin in the mouse and against soman in the giunea pig.However, protection was apparently not related to CAT inhibition.Compound 23, our most effective compound in protecting against nerve agent, was without CAT inhibitory activity.Compound 22, which proved to be a potent CAT inhibitor, most likely owed this activity to being dehydrogenated back to the pyridinium quaternary salt by oxidative enzymes.Several of the (naphthylvinyl)pyridine quaternary salts, but not their tertiary amine analogues, were found to be effective in slowing the rate of aging of soman-inhibited acetylcholinesterase.Ability to slow the rate of aging was enhanced by introduction of methoxy substituents on the aryl moiety whereas the aging rate was actually accelerated by chloro substituents.To date, our most effective compound in slowing the rate of aging, (E)-4-<(4-methoxy-1-naphthyl)vinyl>pyridine methochloride (6), did not provide significant protection against soman in the mouse.
