Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and neurocognitive deficits are a major problem of modern society. The etiology of CFS remains unclear, however, a large number of recent studies have shown oxidative stress may be involved in its pathogenesis. Fatigue is frequent and important in the lives of Parkinson’s disease (PD) patients. 1-amino-adamantane (amantadine and memantine) derivatives has been proposed to be useful in the treatment of Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases. Its beneficial effect has been related to its novel properties as an N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) blocker which can neutralize the effect of glutamate at striatal and subthalamic levels. We synthesized and evaluated the antioxidant activity of eleven new aminoadamantane derivatives. Their antioxidant activity has been evaluated using different (superoxide anion, hydroxyl) radical generating systems. The compound
with s highest anti-oxidative capacity contain 2-(Benzhydrylsulfinyl) substituent.
