BACE-1 is an encouraging target for the development of AD therapeutics. However, many BACE-1 inhibitors failed clinical trials due to their non-selectivity towards BACE-2 or adverse effects. Herein, a set of 96 benzothiazoles were designed based on the structural features of Atabecestat and Riluzole to find a promising selective BACE-1 inhibitor. Out of the 96 designed compounds, compound Show less
