Selective Inhibitors of Monoamine Oxidase. 2. Arylamide SAR

Abstract: Monoamine oxidase (MAO) exists in two forms distinguishable by substrate specificity. Inhibition of MAO A is believed to be responsible for the antidepressant activity of MAO inhibitors. A group of N-arylacetamides are highly specific inhibitors of MAO A, some with IC50 values in the 10-100 nM range. The requirements for high activity and specificity include a nearly linear tricyclic aromatic portion but a larger and a smaller central ring component. The amide group, which is best acetamido, is optimally place… Show more

“…The pharmacophore model included four features: two hydrophobic (aromatic rings), one donor atom (nitrogen in the pyrrole) and one acceptor atom (substituent in the nitrogen of the pyrrole). This data is consistent with previous publications where aromatic rings were important elements in the MAO inhibitors structure [120,121]. According to the QSAR model for MAO-A inhibitors, steric fields near the aromatic substituents in C 2 of the indole could increase the activity (Fig.…”

“…8). The dataset of 65 compounds previously published [121,147,148] was divided in training set (52 compounds were used to generate the pharmacophoric model) and test set (13 compounds). Pharmacophore modeling was developed with the help of Maestro software [149] through Phase module [150] that combines conformational sampling with different scoring methods to identify pharmacophoric hypothesis.…”

“…This observation prompted us to synthesise some new aryl amides (6,7), sulphonamides (8,9) and 5-oxo-imidazolines (10,11) derivatives bearing benzimidazole moiety, with a view to studying their pharmacological profile.
