The benzyloxy substituted small molecules are well-known highly potent monoamine oxidase B inhibitors, but their therapeutic potential against Parkinson's disease have not been investigated in detail. In this paper, a series of representative benzyloxy substituted derivatives were synthesized and evaluated for MAO-A/B inhibition. In addition, their neuroprotective effects were investigated in 6-OHDA- and rotenone-treated PC12 cells. It was observed that most of the compounds exhibited a marked increase in survival of PC12 cells which treated with the neurotoxins. Among them, 13 exhibited remarkable and balanced neuroprotective potency. The protective effects of 13 against neurotoxins-induced apoptosis were confirmed with flow cytometry and staining methods. Furthermore, 13 also showed good BBB permeability and low toxicity according to in vitro BBB prediction and in vivo acute toxicity test. The results indicated that 13 is an effective and promising candidate to be further developed as disease-modifying drug for Parkinson's disease therapy.

A new series of C7-substituted chromanones has been designed, synthesized and evaluated for hMAO-B inhibitory activity in vitro. Most of the studied compounds were remarkably potent and selective MAO-B inhibitors and showed weak or no inhibition of MAO-A. Especially, compound 4f (IC50 = 8.62 nM) was the best MAO-B inhibitor and exhibited the highest selectivity for MAO-B (SI > 11 627.9-fold). In addition, the structure-activity relationships for MAO-B inhibition indicated that substitutions at the C7 of the chromanone moiety, particularly with the halogen substituted benzyloxy, were more favorable for MAO-B inhibition. Molecular docking studies have been performed to explore the interaction modes of C7-substituted chromanones with MAO-B. Furthermore, the representative compounds 4f and 5d showed low neurotoxicity in SH-SY5Y cells in vitro. So the C7-substituted chromanones could be used to develop promising drug candidates for the therapy of neurodegenerative diseases.
