The nigrostriatal toxin 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetahydropyridine (MPTP) is an excellent substrate and a weak inactivator of the flavoenzyme monoamineoxidaseB (MAO-B). In an attempt to develop novelmechanism-basedinactivators of MAO-B, we have synthesized analogs of MPTP bearing a variety of functional groups at either the N or the C(4) position and have examined their interactions with a purified
