2-Acetylphenol analogs as potent reversible monoamine oxidase inhibitors
(Dove Press, 2015)Based on a previous report that substituted 2-acetylphenols may be promising leads for the design of novel monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors, a series of C5-substituted 2-acetylphenol analogs (15) and related compounds ... -
2-Aminopyrimidines as dual adenosine A1/A2A antagonists
(Elsevier, 2015)In this study thirteen 2-aminopyrimidine derivatives were synthesised and screened as potential antagonists of adenosine A1 and A2A receptors in order to further investigate the structure activity relationships of this ... -
2-Benzylidene-1-indanone analogues as dual adenosine A1/A2a receptor antagonists for the potential treatment of neurological conditions
(Thieme, 2019)Previous studies explored 2-benzylidine-1-tetralone derivatives as innovative adenosine A1 and A2A receptor antagonists for alternative non-dopaminergic treatment of Parkinson’s disease. This study’s aim is to investigate ... -
2-Benzylidene-1-indanone derivatives as inhibitors of monoamine oxidase
(Elsevier, 2016)In the present study, a series of twenty-two 2-benzylidene-1-indanone derivatives were synthesised and evaluated as inhibitors of recombinant human monoamine oxidase (MAO) A and B. The 2-benzylidene-1-indanone derivatives ... -
