Divergent Synthesis of scyllo-Inositol Aldoxime Derivatives as Potential Inhibitors of Amyloid-Beta(1-42) Aggregate Formation

scyllo-Inositol is currently in phase II clinical trials as a therapeutic for Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Previous work from our lab has shown that scyllo-inositol prevents Ab1-42 fibril formation instead leading to the formation of small Ab oligomers in vitro. To further understand the molecular deta...
