AbstractCerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) commonly found in the aged is pathologically characterized byβ-amyloid (Aβ) deposition in the walls of arteries and capillaries of brain. In this study, four flexible multidentate benzyldiamine derivatives as potential probes for cerebrovascular Aβdeposition were designed and synthesized. In in vitro inhibition assays, the ligands18–21displayed high affinities for Aβaggregates withKivalues of 1.45 ± 0.53 nM, 1.68 ± 0.35 nM, 1.16 ± 0.23 nM and 1.72 ± 0.19 nM, respectively. A significant improvement in the binding affinity over the monomer, compounds9–12or benzyldiamine derivatives, demonstrated the applicability of the multidentate approach. The underlying mechanism of these novel Aβagents was explored by molecular docking technique, which theoretically verified the high affinities of the multidentate benzyldiamine derivatives for Aβaggregates. Moreover, the molecular masses of the ligands18–21are more than 700 Dalton, which are believed to be hardly capable of penetrating blood brain barrier. In this regard, these ligands could be used to distinguish CAA from Alzheimer’s disease which is another Aβ-related disorder disease. To convert these ligands to positron emission tomography imaging agents, we attempted to radiosynthesize [18F]18. Though the radiolabeling was not very successful, the preliminary results suggested that these newly proposed multidentate benzyldiamine derivatives may be used as potential Aβimaging agents in cerebral amyloid angiopathy.Graphic abstract
