The present study evaluated the in vitro acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor activity of two new selanyl amide derivatives in cerebral structures of mice. Our results demonstrated that N-(2-(3-(phenylselanyl)propoxy)phenyl)furan-2-carboxamide (1) and N-(2-(3-(phenylselanyl)propoxy)phenyl)thiophene-2-carboxamide (2) inhibited the in vitro AChE activity in mice.
