Successes have been achieved in developing human monoamine oxidase B (hMAO-B) inhibitors as anti-Parkinson’s disease (PD) drugs. However, low efficiency and unwanted side effects of the marketed hMAO-B inhibitors hamper their medical applications, therefore, novel potent selective hMAO-B inhibitors are still of great interest. Herein we report 1-(prop-2-yn-1-ylamino)-2,3-dihydro-1H-indene-4-thiol derivatives as hMAO-B inhibitors, which were designed by employing a fragment-based drug design strategy to link rasagiline to hydrophobic fragments. Among the synthesized 31 compounds, I and II demonstrated very encouraging hMAO-B inhibitory activities and selectivity over hMAO-A, better than rasagiline and safinamide. In vitro studies indicated that K8 and K24 are nontoxic to nervous tissue cells and they have considerable effects against ROS formation and potential neuroprotective activity. Further mice behavioral tests demonstrated these two compounds have good therapeutic effects on MPTP-induced PD model mice. All these experiment results suggest that compounds K8 and K24 can be promising candidates for further research for treatment of PD. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 1-(2-Bromoethyl)-4-methoxybenzene (cas: 14425-64-0Application of 14425-64-0).
1-(2-Bromoethyl)-4-methoxybenzene (cas: 14425-64-0) belongs to organobromine compounds. Most of the natural organobromine compounds are produced by marine organisms, and several brominated metabolites with antibacterial, antitumor, antiviral, and antifungal activity have been isolated from seaweed, sponges, corals, molluscs, and others. Bromine-containing agents predominate because not only are they more efficient than similar chlorine-containing species, but also the high atomic weight of bromine ensures that it is present in a high mass fraction within most organobromine compounds.Application of 14425-64-0
