摘要

Ro 16-6491 is known to be a potent reversible inhibitor of human brain MAO-B. This compound and several analogues were tested for their effect on bovine liver MAO-B. It was found that in compounds where the amide bond of Ro 16-6491 was replaced by an ester bond an increase in potency of the order of 150-200 times was obtained.
