In our attempt to discover new skeleton of Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitors, docking study of our chalcone data base against the binding pocket of enzyme was achieved. Auto Dock 4.2 program, the effective tool for docking simulation was used to exploring the binding affinity of docked derivatives towards AChE active site. Four hits that exhibit high scoring affinity within the binding pocket of enzyme, comparing with rivastigmine as standard were synthesized and in vitro tested against human AChE using modified Ellmann's method.
