compared to previously studied THIQ-type inhibitors, except for 16 which was found to have good affinity for PNMT (PNMT K(i) = 0.52 microM). Compounds 14 and 16 proved to be the most selectiveinhibitors in this small series of compounds and are some of the most selectiveinhibitors of PNMT known (14, selectivity alpha(2) K(i)/PNMT K(i) = 700; 16, selectivity alpha(2) K(i)/PNMT K(i) > 1900).
