  • Abstract
    (±)-10,10-Dimethylhuperzine A (2, DMHA) has been synthesized, and its enantiomers have been separated using chiral HPLC. (−)-DMHA inhibits AChE with a Ki value approaching that of (−)-huperzine A, whereas (+)-DMHA shows no AChE inhibitory activity. On the other hand, both enantiomers are equally potent against glutamate-induced neurotoxicity when tested in neurons.
