A new class of amidine-oxime reactivators of organophosphate (OP)-inhibited cholinesterases (ChE) was synthesized and tested in vitro and in vivo. Compared with 2-PAM, the most promising cyclic amidine-oxime (i.e., 12e) showed comparable or greater reactivation of OP-inactivated AChE and OP-inactivated

A series of novel bis-pyridinium oximes connected by bis-methoxymethyl benzene, 1,4-bis-methoxymethyl (cis)-but-2-ene and 1,4-bis-methoxymethyl but-2-yne linkers were synthesized and their in vitro reactivation efficacy was evaluated against diisopropyl phosphorofluoridate (DFP) inhibited acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and compared with the established antidote 2-PAM

Six novel AChE reactivators with a (Z)-but-2-ene linker were synthesized using the known synthetic pathways. Their ability to reactivate AChE, which had been previously inhibited by nerve agent tabun or pesticide paraoxon, was tested in vitro and compared to pralidoxime
