Abstract
New tetrakis(multifluoro-4-pyridyl)porphin derivatives (2-4) and water solu ble porphyrin (5) were synthesized to investigate their interactions with a cetylcholinesterase from electric eel. These compounds have been found to b e the potent reversible inhibitors of the enzyme with K-i values of mu M ra nge. In addition, porphyrin (5) showed broad spectrum of anticancer activit ies.
