Design, Synthesis, and Biological Evaluation of Pyridazinones Containing the (2-Fluorophenyl) Piperazine Moiety as Selective MAO-B Inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: Twelve pyridazinones (T1-T12) containing the (2-fluorophenyl) piperazine moiety were designed, synthesized, and evaluated for monoamine oxidase (MAO) -A and -B inhibitory activities. T6 was found to be the most potent MAO-B inhibitor with an IC₅₀ value of 0.013 µM, followed by T3 (IC₅₀ = 0.039 µM). Inhibitory potency for MAO-B was more enhanced by meta bromo substitution (T6) than by para bromo substitution (T7). For para substitution, inhibitory potencies for MAO-B were as follows: -Cl (T3) > -N(CH₃)₂ (T12) > -OCH₃ (T9) > Br (T7) > F (T5) > -CH₃ (T11) > -H (T1). T6 and T3 efficiently inhibited MAO-A
