title: 'Click' assembly of selective inhibitors for MAO-A.
abstract: In this Letter, an efficient strategy for the fast construction of 108 compounds library was developed using click chemistry. The fingerprint of inhibitory activity toward MAO-A/B against this library was obtained, and four hit compounds were identified as selective inhibitors toward MAO-A. Docking study was carried out to demonstrate the binding mode between a9 and MAO-A/B, and the result reveals that a9 localized in the 'aromatic cage' and oriented to establish π-π stacking interactions with Tyr407, Tyr444 and FAD in MAO-A rather than in MAO-B.
