Conclusions
-
1.
The rate constants of the interaction of O-n-alkyl-S-(β-ethylmercaptoethyl) methylthiophosphonates and their methylsulfomethylates with cholinesterase were determined.
-
2.
The anticholinesterase activity of the investigated compound depends greatly upon the length of the alkoxyl group.
-
3.
Evidently there are several hydrophobic portions on the active surface of cholinesterase, situated both close to the esterase center and close to the anionic center.
