3. Discussion
- The sugar moiety at the C-4 position of the furofuranoid lignan skeleton is crucial in the compound’s potent activity provided that no HB can be formed with the oxygen atom of the hydroxyl group of C-4 of the furofuranoid skeleton;
- The HB formation of key amino acids with the hydroxyl groups at C-4 or C-4′ is better than their formation with the methoxy groups at C-3 or C-3′;
- The direct attachment of the sugar moiety at the C-4 position of the furofuranoid lignan system without a spacer (dihydrofuran moiety) is preferable;
- The ligands’ interaction with the key amino acids ARG: 24A, TYR: 77A, VAL: 340A, and PHE: 346A are crucial for the anticholinesterase activity.
