## Abstract Eight novel methylcarbamates, derivatives of ferrocenylketoximes and aldoximes, and ferrocenyl‐p‐hydroxyphenylaldimine were prepared. They are the first carbamates in the field of ferrocene derivaties. Their anticholinesterase activity was tested and found to fall in the range of 10^−4^

✦ Synopsis
Abstract
Several sulfenamide derivatives were designed as possible acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors. New sulfenamides were synthesized and proved to be stable under the physiological conditions used in the enzymatic assays. N‐benzyl‐2‐benzoxazolylsulfenamide (8) and N‐benzyl‐2‐benzimidazolylsulfenamide (9) revealed anti‐AChE activity with IC~50~ values of 0.6 and 0.8 μ__M__, respectively, values of the same magnitude as those reported for galantamine and tacrine. The affinity for the biological site was evaluated in terms of interaction/partition toward sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) micelles. The inhibitory activity profiles were reasoned in terms of both partition toward a hydrophobic anionic environment and molecular geometry. The XCSN dihedral angle deviations from collinearity stood out as a major parameter linked to enzyme specificity. J. Heterocyclic Chem., (2011).
