Sažetak

Eight chiral esters of quinuclidin-3-ol and butyric, acetic, pivalic and benzoic acid were synthesized
as well as their racemic and chiral, quaternary N-benzyl derivatives. All racemic and chiral quaternary
compounds were studied as substrates and/or inhibitors of horse serum butyrylcholinesterase
(BChE). The best substrate for the enzyme was (R)-N-benzyl butyrate. The rates of hydrolysis decreased
in order (R)-butyrate >> (R)-acetate (7-fold slower) > (R)-pivalate (8-fold slower) > (R)-benzoate (9-fold
slower reaction), while (S)-N-benzyl esters were much poorer substrates (320 (butyrate) - 4360-fold slower
(pivalate) than the appropriate (R)-enantiomer). For all (S)-N-benzyl esters excluding (S)-N-benzyl acetate
inhibition constants were determined (Ka = 3.3−60 μmol dm−3). The hydrolysis of racemic mixtures of
N-benzyl esters proceeded 1.4 (for acetate) − 5.1 (for benzoate) times slower than that of pure (R)-
enantiomers of the corresponding concentrations due to the inhibition with (S)-enantiomers. Change of the
acyl moiety of the substrate effected both activity and stereoselectivity of the BChE.(doi:
