alpha-allenic amines, including primary, secondary, and tertiary ones, was synthesized, partly by organocopper chemistry. Their ability to inhibit mouse and rat brain mitochondrial monoamine oxidase (MAO) in vivo and in vitro, respectively, was evaluated. Almost all compounds were quite potent inhibitors of MAO, some as potent as deprenyl. Like deprenyl, most of the compounds were selective inhibitors
合成了一系列15种α-
烯丙胺,包括伯,仲和叔胺,部分是通过
有机铜化学合成的。分别评估了它们在体内和体外抑制小鼠和大鼠脑线粒体单胺氧化酶(MAO)的能力。几乎所有化合物都是相当有效的MAO
抑制剂,有些与地
戊二烯基一样强。像
异戊二烯基一样,大多数化合物都是BAO MAO的选择性
抑制剂。制备了N-甲基-N-(
2,3-戊二烯基)
苄胺(2)的两种对映体形式,发现R-(-)形式的活度是体内(+)形式的2.7倍,是25是体外活性的两倍。测试了大多数化合物增强小鼠苯
乙胺(
PEA)反应的能力,并且发现了MAO抑制能力与
PEA增强之间的良好相关性。化合物5
