| Abstract: | trans,trans-1-(Aminomethyl)-2-methoxy-3-phenylcyclopropane (3) was synthesized in three steps from (Z)-beta-methoxystyrene and ethyl diazoacetate. Compound 3 was shown to be a substrate and inactivator of mitochondrial beef liver monoamine oxidase (MAO) with a partition ratio of 1428. MAO-catalyzed oxidation of 3 produces one major metabolite, isolated and identified by GCOSY, GHMQC, and GHMBC NMR techniques to be trans,trans-2-methoxy-3-phenyl-1-N-(3-phenyl-N-pyrrolyl)methyl]cyclopropane (7). A mechanism, supported by a model reaction, is proposed for the formation of this metabolite. |
